Hi Adam,

Thank you very much for your help.  I tried your suggestion and achieved the
desired results.  See code below if interested.

Regarding your question and points about table vs. css.  There are a number
of considerations at play here for my development effort.

1.  I am trying to build a site that will be truly useful to those users
whom use assisted technology to interact with websites.  But, having never
done so before, I am on the steep side of the learning curve. 

2.  My less than expert understanding of accessability has lead me to
believe that information which is linear in nature (like name, address,
phone, DOB...) should not be presented in a table unless it was a repeating
list of like information.  

I would be interested in any thoughts about this from you or any other list
member.  I am here to learn. 
  
Regards and appreciation for sharing your ideas,

Mark
