Did specifying width for tds work? E.g.: <td width="100" height="100">Whatever</td> Tables are a headache even when their use is essential. One way that seems to work fine is specifying the width as a percentage (Enclose it in a div that has a width specified, and use percentages for the tables). IE 5.x has a problem where percentage widths are calculated against the viewport rather than the parent element, so might have to do some hacks there too. cheers, Prabhath http://nidahas.com ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
