Getting use to tables are, to me, such a pain! I'm use to using i-frames. However, I'm trying to get out of the habbit due to negative draw backs I've heard i-frames have. Anyhoo, I've uploaded a quick layout I'm trying to code, and I'm, as usual, also having an extremely hard time doing so. You can view the page here (http://eb0nie.tripod.com/blue.html)

I used this code <table style="position:absolute; left:86; top:381;"><tr><td> in order to make the table. When I type inside the <tr><td> tags like this for example:

<table style="position:absolute; left:86; top:381;"><tr>Hello and welcome to my site. Please navigate through the entire site and let me know what you think by dropping a msg. in the guestbook or leaving me a note on the tagboard. Toodles!<td>

it aligns vertically as seen on my current page (httpL//www.eb0nie.tripod.com/blue.html)

When I type immediatley following the code, it entends horizontally across the page and doesn't position within the desired table area. Can someone tell me what am I doing wrong and how I can prevent this for future references?

I noticed that you are not ending your table, tr , and td tags, and you had an image tag not inside the body tag and you also had 2 body tags, remember to always make clean code
