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

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?
