I think I may have to go that route. What I'd like to do is define
specific sized sections but NOT have them in logical order. i.e. the
main content section may be first, even through it's logically under
the header. This will work best with search engines as the first thing
they see will be content and after that things like headers, side
bars, etc.
My biggest fear (other than not being 100% up on positioning) is that
there will be users to the site with browsers that will not have the
'proper' results and will get messed up data.

Mike,

I'd scrap the tables and go with CSS. I reluctantly went to CSS for layouts
and have not looked back.. Plus you have one of the brightest CSS people on
the list, Sandy Clark who always gets people pointed in the right direction
if they run into trouble.

Let me know if I can lend a hand.

Mike
