Re: simple question
Since you have the <center> tages around your whole table then everythings going to be centered.
do this..
Code: Select all
<td width=100>4</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width=100>5</td>
</tr>
</table></td>
<td width=50>2</td>
</tr>
</table></center>

<table width=450 height=50 border=1>
<tr>
<td align="left">123</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table width=500 height=50 border=1>
<tr>
<td><img src="border1.jpg"></td>
</tr>
</table>
that should fix it and the remaining tables and cells will be where you want to put them.

Re: simple question
Just if you care...technically you should do this...

You are doing...
Code: Select all
width=500
Should be...
Code: Select all
width="500"
Or at least that was the way I was taught...way back in the day...lol

Re: simple question
So just the 123 table to the left? All the rest centered?

Code: Select all
<table width="500" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td width="500"><img src="border1.jpg"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="500"><img src="20a166bf.jpg"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="500"><img src="border2.jpg"></td>
</tr>
</table>
<table width="500" height="500" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" background="Image3.jpg">
<tr>
<td width="450">
<table width="100" border="1">
<tr>
<td width="100">1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="100">2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="100">3</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="100">4</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="100">5</td>
</tr>
</table></td>
<td width="50">2</td>
</tr>
</table>
</center>
<center>
<table width="450" height="50" border="1" align="left">
<tr>
<td align="left">123</td>
</tr>
</table>


<p>&nbsp;</p>
<table width="500" height="50" border="1" align="center">
<tr>
<td><img src="border1.jpg"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</center>
This does it if I understood the question correctly!

Re: simple question
Well Dan you are just going to have to set ALL that code into YET ANOTHER TABLE!!! Specify the width of your outside container table, center it on the page and all will be well!

hahahahahaha Now I'm really beginning to realize the silliness of these tables! hahahahahaha
