If you use PNG's and negative margins, this would allow you to piece together images, but how would you handle hovering or clicking? For example, if you had a circle image with a transparent background, how would you identify hovering or clicking only on the circle piece? Dan Fr

Tables are used to present data. So I think it makes perfect sense to simply put the data in the cells, and not wrap them in tags. Would there be a reason to have a table of paragraphs? Dan Freeman e-Commerce Manager 800.650.6506 (TOLL FREE) 330.655.0341 (DIRECT) www.lexi.com <h
