hello,

does anybody know how to align, for example, 5 tables into 2 rows and 3 columns (3 on first row and 2 on second). The bottom tables should be right underneath the top ones no matter how big/long the top tables are. As an example look at http://www.divein.to I can do this by using one huge table and putting the small tables there but the table does not display until all of its content loads.

TTT TTT TTT These are 5 tables separated by ---
TTT TTT TTT And this is how I want to look them but
TTT TTT TTT without using one huge table.

I don't think you can do that.

You can align tables with align=[left, center, right] and valign=[top, middle, bottom]
But I think that when you tables back to back () it creates line break.

Closest you can get is one table that contains three cells each with its own table) ... looks like row #1 of your big table, and then one table that contains two cells each with its own table).

If you use cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=0 both 'outside' tables will 'join up'.
