Re: another table problem

Hello.......

Well, thanks to some very helpful suggestions from several people, the page
now looks fine on both IE and NN. It is still off in Opera, and unless
anyone has suggestions there I guess it will have to remain that way for the
time being. I had more than one person tell me that I should just forget
about NN and Opera since they both had such a small percentage of users.
Well, I've often had that thought also, except that I know quite a few
people in my circle who use NN as their primary browser, and I've recently
made Opera my browser of choice for routine web use. It actually has some
very nice features that I've become quite entranced with.

Anyway, thanks to all who responded either privately or on the list.
