OK, I think I understand. Would this be right?

I have a "compass rose" on each of my pages that moves you around on the
page (top or bottom) or site (previous or next page). To keep the "rose"
separate from the preceding and upcoming sections, I have an empty <p></p>
before the table that creates the "rose".

here is what it looks like:
http://jerem43.home.att.net/pages/9x.html

here is the HTML (truncated for brevity):

<!--Navigation-->
<p>
</p>

<table class="navbox">
<!--blah, blah, blah yackety-schmackety goes here-->
</table>
<!--End Navigation-->

Would this do the same thing, and is it the correct usage?

<!--Navigation-->
<div>

<table class="navbox">
<!--blah, blah, blah yackety-schmackety goes here-->
</table>

</div>
<!--End Navigation-->

I am guessing that I could create a class that would define how far away the
"rose" would appear from the various surrounding elements to further help
structure the page.
