Bill, It's not free, but I recommend this article: http://www.communitymx.com/abstract.cfm?cid=A33F5 Other helpful articles in understanding page flow: http://www.brainjar.com/css/positioning/default.asp http://css.maxdesign.com.au/floatutorial/ http://www.communitymx.com/abstract.cfm?cid=AC008 http://www.communitymx.com/abstract.cfm?cid=81CD7 http://www.communitymx.com/abstract.cfm?cid=6BC9D By the way, I commend you for using HTML since you knew you couldn't live up to the strictness of XHTML yet. That's absolutely the right thing to do. Zoe -- Zoe M.
