How do I make my table get really long rahter than really wide?? Here is the code I am using:

<table bgcolor="yellow" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3"><tr><td> <table bgcolor="darkred" border="2" cellspacing="10" cellpadding="10"><tr><td> <font color=burlywood>TEXTIE TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT HERE HERE TEXT</font> </table></table><BR>

if you have enough content in the table, it will stretch automatically. or you could set the height attribute of the table just like would would the width, or if you just want blank space at the bottom, you could use a bunch of <br> tags.

you haven't closed the <tr><td> yet so your code should be:

<table bgcolor="yellow" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3"><tr><td> <table bgcolor="darkred" border="2" cellspacing="10" cellpadding="10"><tr><td> <font color=burlywood>TEXTIE TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT HERE HERE TEXT</font></td></tr></table></td></tr></table><BR>

edit: thanks dude, i changed it :)

one little correction: it should be </td></tr>

you should always close the most recently opened tag (if that makes sense :P), so you should have <tr><td></td></tr> so that they aren't overlapping, if you will.
