I seem to have a problem with tables on a site I'm working on. I've chopped up a graphic and put it in a table and included some tiled backgrounds for the cells that grow with the page. <br />
The URL is <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.healthserve.org">www.healthserve.org</a><!-- w --> <br />
Here's the problem, sometimes when someone visits the page for the first time, the cells don't size properly to the graphics causing the tiled pics to tile both horizontally as well as vertically, making the page look a right mess. <br />
When someone then hits the refresh button, everything returns to normal. <br />
Can anyone help me???????<!--content-->Well it looked fine for me on NS 7.0.<!--content-->It worked for me too (IE and Netscape7.0).<br />
<br />
It does take a second or so to come together, but that's probably due to your use of so many nested tables (the CSS folks in here will noodle-whip you for that).<br />
<br />
Maybe slower connection speeds combined with the number of images and tables is causing havoc for some.<br />
<br />
Maybe try putting width and height values in the columns that are nesting tables.<br />
<br />
Otherwise... ? (seems OK on my end)<br />

You can help yourself as well as your visitors by not cutting you image into a myriade of tiny pieces and use CSS for layout instead of abuse table for it.<!--content-->...of a site that uses CSS for layout??<br />
