kinda depends. Are you trying to position one table somewhere or lots of little tables?

Lots of little tables.

hard to say. Any tables overlapping each other? if not just use this into the <table> tags:

style="position: absolute; left: #px; top: #px;"

if they are overlapping then you have to work with z-index: #;
you put it into the coding like this:

style="position: absolute; left: #px; top: #px; z-index: #;"

the tables that are at the bottom layer (so way back) get a z-index: 1;
the tables on top of that layer get a z-index: 2;
the tables on top of that layer get a z-index: 3;
tables from the same layer get the same z-index, you just continue like that :) So the higher the number, the more the table will be on top of the others.

if you are unsure on how to do this, or even to know if it's nessecary show us the page you are having problems with and we'll try our best to help you out :)

Love,
