Re: Problem with Tables....

Hello,

    Well, looking at the site, and your code, I see the problem.
Your buttons jump because the table isn't a static size, and you
have your row aligning to the middle.. If you make your table
a static height then your buttons will stay in the same place,
or if you make your row align to top, and you put the right amount
of <br>'s in to put it in the right place on every page....

Change:
<TABLE CELLPADDING="2">
to
<TABLE CELLPADDING="2" height="70%">

(replace 70% with number that makes it look right,
I tested it and 70 looks okay on my computer)

--- OR change ---

  <TR VALIGN="MIDDLE">
    <TD width="200">
      <TABLE CELLPADDING="2">
 <TR>

-- to:
  <TR VALIGN="MIDDLE">
    <TD width="200">
 <br><br><br><br><br><br>
      <TABLE CELLPADDING="2">
        <TR>


The first way is probably alot better then the second,
Hope this Helps, lemme know.
