Jumping in here.  I'm no CSS expert by any means but I've been learning
and the more I do, the more I retain, so I get better as time goes on.
It does take time, as Russ said, and I get frustrated lots of times.  I
occasionally hit a wall with something, but I'm not going back to
tables, not when I've seen the enormous benefits that can be realized by
using CSS for layout.  Tables have their place - and it's NOT layout.

I've also done the "But I have no TIIIIIIIIME!' wail, too.  Believe me,
you'll waste a lot less time later, if you stick with learning and doing
CSS for layout now.  There IS a way to do what you want.

Were you talking about Netscape 7.0 or 7.1?  I went to look at your site
in 7.1/Win, seems it's working fine on my machine.
