It is hard to know quite what you are asking? What happens is
this: those who could pinpoint a specific technical solution to a
specific question will be unable to.
On top of this, they would be highly unlikely to risk showing if
what you are trying to do is not good practice. And you are
certainly a sitting duck on this one.
You will therefore get general advice which you will not have any
background to understand properly. It will look like preaching.
And all sorts of emotional terms will be used like "abusing
tables" (which in fact is code for a reasonably developed and
coherent idea in spite of it being a particularly silly
expression and quite often used idiotically anyway)
The beginning of your scrap of code does not inspire confidence:
what do you mean <TABLE BORDER CELLPADDING="2">? What about the
border? Don't answer this!
Your code and the source code of the link you give is full of
simple mistakes that you would be alerted to if you used a
validator. You do need to do what you can first. And then, try to
cut your problem down to the bare essentials to exhibit the
problem you are experiencing.
You need a basic tute on HTML and CSS. Why not start at
http://locusmeus.com/html-css/list.html for some nice links.
You see. How nice some of us can be. I'm the nicest around here.
And then there are others. Spartanicus (God) is a tricky
customer. Not for you, lamikin, yet... [a lamikin is an an
innocent lamb...]
