Grrrr To Tables!

[Dalius]

Alright people, the site in question:

Anyway to get the News box and the Menu table (yes, it's a table) to be beside eachother?

Right now, the menu box is pushing the news box down.

:\

Thanks in Advanced,

First thing:
You menu table is uncomplete!
You have no <td> tag in there!

Secondly:
You made two tables and tables are never to be put "side by side" - only under each other.

Use one table with 2 columns and put your stuff in, that should put it beside each other....

Yes, but then the tables will be RIGHT besdie eachother.
I want some space between them.

Also, is there a way to for like the height of the table to change depending on how much content is in it?

Then make *3* colums and add some whitespace in the middle one :D

And the dimensions of a table always fits to it's contents, unless you give it a static value and some browsers also like to ignore that.

I think it would be a good start for you digging through this: http://selfhtml.teamone.de/

I'll try that, thanks.
I'd dig through that except I don't understand that language.

Maybe you could do it like this:



<table cellspacing="some_large_number">
<tr>
<td>

<!-- Put your left table here -->

</td>
<td>

<!-- Put your right table here -->

</td>
</tr>
