Re: Table Alignment

I agree wholeheartedly with Cindy and believe the Jay and anyone else who
can't provide help should keep their mouths shut. These lists aren't
designed to be a vehicle for those who have nothing but sarcasm to
contribute. Its intention is to further the art of creating informative and
valuable Internet content and the sharing of expertise (i.e. mentoring).
Please try to make your comments in the direction of helping the person
learn what went wrong. WYSIWIG isn't the answer it's just a crutch, good
solid background in HTML can provide a much better enjoyment of the art.
You can then concentrate on what you want to do and not constantly worrying
about checking it in a WYSIWIG viewer.
