For a start make your life easy and MAKE SURE that the Jpeg text IS
placed below the image by adding the following straight after the
</a>
<br clear="all">
so that it reads
</a><br clear="all">
JPEG, 1536x1024, 600.5kB

yep. i c what u mean.
HOWEVER! the problem isnt with your first table TD but with the
Third one!! :-}
For whatever reason Imaginable the v betas new table layout software
is making the third <TD></TD> items wrap down in size to fit the
text and totally ignoring the cell size of the first TD. What u need
to do is override that by manually telling it to fill all the
remaining space after 288 + 8 is used.
<td width="100%" align="left" valign="top"><font
color="yellow"><i>Billede nr. I.32</i></font><p>Beskrivelse.</p></td>
Simply adding the width="100%" will tell it to do this.
Simple answer. Bizarre fact that it should need that at all, as two
Defined figures plus a "take whats left" SHOULD have produced the
right effect but for some reason didnt!
Hope this helps.
Biff.
