aligning & sizing tables for netscape
Hello,
OK, I've nearly got it !!!
When my page is viewed in netscape it is making a table smaller and aligning it to the left, also it is aligning some text to the left. In IE it is OK.
Any Ideas ?? http://www.4legs.fi/horses.htm
Thanks in advance

Before you criticise someone walk a mile in their shoes......
Then, if they don't like what you say they are 1 mile away and barefoot.

NS requires some content in table cells to render them. since you have a large number of cells in your table with no content in them, NS ignores them.
To fix this you need to place something in those cells, the two most popular things being a non-breaking space and a transparent gif file.
Both have pros and cons- the non-breaking space can be affected by changing the font size in your browser and a transparent gif file can add to the page load time.
Sometimes it's necessary to use the trans gif to preserve the layout whether you wanted to do that or not. Such is life in web design today. 8^)

Just my opinion, worth $0.00001 anywhere on earth.
