Thanks Paul,

That certainly had an effect! Knocked the entire TD out of the flow, 
which of course proves your point. I was hoping more for a gentle 
nudge, but if that's what I have to do...

I'm going to try to move the TD back using CSS, but there are 
legitimate tables (that is, they hold tabular data) elsewhere in the 
site, and they are within this main TD. If I give that main TD an id of 
centerCol, how would I write the rule to restrict the effect to that 
single TD (and not affect any legit table that might be in it)? Would 
it be...

td #centerCol {
   display: block
   ...my other rules...
}

Thanks again,

Rob
