I have a very simple navigation "menu" in the middle of my page. It is
three simple links and it lays out horizontally. To achieve this, I
used the following table:
<table align=center width="40%">
<tr>
<td align=left width="13%"><a href="#auctions ">Auctions</a></td>
<td align=center width="13%"><a href="gallery.h tm">Gallery</a></td>
<td align=right width="13%"><a
href="mailto:Ja *************** *******@yahoo.c om">Contact</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
I can already hear you yelling "Don't use tables for layout!" Well,
that's why I'm here, because I cannot figure out how to achieve the
above "layout" without using a table.
I tried the following:
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left; width: 13%; display: inline;">
<a href="#auctions ">Auctions</a>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center; width: 13%; display: inline;">
<a href="gallery.h tm">Gallery</a>
</div>
<div style="text-align: right; width: 13%; display: inline;">
<a href="mailto:Ja *************** *******@yahoo.c om">Contact</a>
</div>
</div>
It worked in IE but not Moz.
Then I added http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd to the DTD and it
didn't work in either browser, which indicates to me that it just
won't work. (Note to MS: stop fixing my mistakes!)
Is there any way to replicate the table layout using only CSS?
Thanks 24  2709

It looks as if you are trying to do the same as I do in the footer on my
pages - see sig. Have a look and see if that helps.

Thanks. This almost worked exactly as I wanted, but refused to be
centered. Combined with one of the tutorials that kayodeok posted, I
added
#nav ul
{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style-type: none;
text-align: center;
}
to the style and it works perfectly in both browsers.

This isn't a new document, it's a revision of an older one. Once I get
it working as a Transitional, I'll switch it over to Strict and start
all over again :)

OK, I'll bite: why not?
If it's about the spam-bots, I actually use
mailto: instead of mailto:
I just changed it for display purposes here.

Hi,
I need to have a table nested within another table. The tables are
alongside each other visually speaking, and the nested table (on the
right) can vary in size. My problem is that when the nested table has
more rows than the first table, the first table (on the left) pads out
its rows so that the table matches the height of the nested table.
I don't want this it happen.. I just want the nested table to be
longer than the first...

Is there really any advantage to using DIV elements with float style
properies, vs. the old method of TABLE and TR and TD?
I'm finding that by using DIV, it still involves the same number of
elements in the HTML to get everything just right. When you consider
the class attribute on the DIV elements, there's not much size savings
anymore for using DIV.
There are other disadvantages to not using TABLE/TR/TD, such as the

Normalisation is the term used to describe how you break a file down into tables to create a database.

There are others but they are rarely if ever used. A database is said to be Normalised if it is in 3NF (or ideally in BCNF). These steps are descibed as follows:
