These require writting html so why not do it right using the table html?


<table>

<tr>

<td> ........... </td>
<td> ........... </td>
<td> ........... </td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td> ........... </td>
<td> ........... </td>
<td> ........... </td>

</tr>

</table>

It is not that hard.




I would suggest that everyone that is doing web pages learn at least some
html. It will help you find errors faster and allow you to add functions
that the web page generator does not support.

"Read Less, Learn More HTML" by Eric Kramer (ISBN 0-7645-3471-8) is a
simple book and not too expensive.
