Yeah, thnk you guys for your help. The person I am working with is learning some more advanced CSS as we speak to take care of the issue. I though about putting another table in those two side cells but that would get very complicated and the text within the two seperate tables would still be selectable with the rest of the main content.

As for the background of the page, it is in it's very preliminary design, no extra adjustments have been made, so right now it doesn't have a background, however, I have been messing around with the background enough to know the current hex of my bgcolor by heart.

Thank you guys very much for your time, from what it seems we are going to take a whack at making the page in CSS, especialy since Adobe ImageReady has the ability to output CSS for the site depending on the slices and we can edit it from there.
