I'm hoping you guys can help.
Well....
I'm trying to get my text to align at the top. I have a table and a div. followed by another table and another div. Both are for navigation.
The problem is when i place my text in the next <td width="575"> it aligns my text at a lower level.
I would like to align my text at the top of the page.
Here is my code:
<html>
<head>
blah blah blah
</head>
<body>
<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top" width="141">
<div id="list">
<ul>
<li>
<a href="index.html">Home</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="resources.html">PURCHASE</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="abc.html">Info</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<br />
<br />
<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top" width="141">
<div id="nav">
<ul>
<li>
<a href="resources-1.html">Resources 1</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="index.html">Home</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="resources.html">Resources 2</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="score.html"><i>Score</i></a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</td>
<td valign="top" width="575">
<p>
abcdefg...........
</p>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
Well,...

I suggest you consider using just one table, like so:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top" width="141">
<div id="list">
<ul>
<li>
<a href="index.html">Home</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="resources.html">PURCHASE</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="abc.html">Info</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div id="nav">
<ul>
<li>
<a href="resources-1.html">Resources 1</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="index.html">Home</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="resources.html">Resources 2</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="score.html"><i>Score</i></a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</td>
<td width="575" valign="top">
<p>
abcdefg...........
</p>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
There may be a more elegant way (using tables), but I'll leave that to the imagination of others ;)
I appreciate your help:)
But i had this code setup like the one you showed me.
I was trying to split the Navigation into 2 separate
sections. One above the other followed by text at the top of the page.
Q.1. Is it possible to split the navigation into 2 sections then after these 2 sections place my text at the top?
Q.2. Or is it only possible to use only the same setup above with linebreaks to split the navigation?
Q.3.Another option, could i place the second navogation list after the text in a separate <td>?
>>And will the *spiders* see this navigation after the text?<<<
For example:
<table width= etc.........>
blah blah blah
</td>
<td width="575">
<p>
blah....
</p>
</td>
<td width="141">
LINK NAV.
</td>
</tr>
</td>
</table>
Is this ok?
And will spiders see the last set of links?
Q.4. Also for the last set of links, do i need a <div> or can i just list the links as text links?
Like this:
<a href="#">link</a>
<a href="#">link</a>
<a href="#">link</a>
Etc...
Well, please help and thank you again for your previous help as well as for these questions:)

Q.1. Is it possible to split the navigation into 2 sections then after these 2 sections place my text at the top?
...makes no sense to me.
When i said split the nav. i meant having a main nav.
and then beneath this nav. a few spaces followed by a new nav. Sort of like a sub-nav with other topics.
Then The content of the page would be listed at the top of the page.(2 column layout)
Like this:
>NAV.
spaceing
>NEW NAV
>new <td> with
content of page at the top.
I wanted this setup for "themeing" the site and breaking up the the topics.
Well, i hope this explains it:)
Thanks for your replies:)
