Hi, I have a problem and i do not know how to solve it. Being a fairly new html learner, i hope you all can bear with me.
The problem is this, and the solution may be simple:
I want to create three columns that fit a browser (so, i guess i would say <table width="33%"> to be one of the columns) and i want these columns to be independent to each other so that if i add a whole paragraph to the first column, then when i add ONE word in the second column it will not immediately display it in the center of the second column. I hope you can understand what i am saying. If not, refer to the attached txt file so that you may be able to reproduce it yourselves. notice the second column's words are in the center of the table? i need that at the top, and not affected by the first column.

please help. thanks

Look at the 'valign' attribute here: http://htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/tables/td.html . The default value is 'middle', that's why what you describe happens. You just set it to "top" instead. smile.gif
