No, I didn't. I just mentioned some of the markup errors (which you  
could have found yourself using a validator). 
 
Do you want constructive discussion? If yes, why didn't you post the URL  
now, after having been asked to?

No it isn't. If you knew HTML, you would have realized this.

Statistics is a subject area, not a point.

No I won't. It was part of your homework to save it and post the URL.

You are not helpful in helping others to help you.

Which part of the sentence "Is this really a heading cell?" did you fail  
to understand.

It is enough for seeing that you have either misunderstood HTML or coded  
sloppily without using a validator. It is not enough for seeing what you  
are trying to accomplish - this would be the first part in finding a  
good way to achieve it. Among other things, the   looks suspicious.  
Why do you use such a coarse and illogical method of creating padding,  
instead of using CSS?
