I have no clue.

I am sure if you explained it better or provided me with an example I and others here could be of some help.

Putting tables in tables can fix all sorts of problems!!! But I remember it created all sorts of problems in Netscape 4.7(?)

While I assume it would be possible to build a website in entirely one table (with liberal use of colspans and rowspans and whatnot), but it would make a whole lot more sense and would be far easier with nested tables.

What problems did you run into with Netscape 4.7 and two nested tables? Older versions of Netscape had problems with deeply nested tables, but I've never run into a problem with just two.

It's simply impossible to get what I wanted with just one table. I tried in the very beginning to use only one table for the whole thing, but it just didn't work.

[ADD]
My previous site also used tables in tables. So did another current project of mine.

You might want to have a table centered horizontally and vertically on the page...

<table><tr><td valign=center>
<center>
<table>TABLE HERE</table>
</center>
</td></tr></table>

ok I'm a little rusty so that might not be 100% correct, but you get the idea...

What I said in my own unique (lame) way was:

"Where is the table within a table on this page, and is it necessary?"

I haven't cheated by looking at the source....I leave that as an exercise for you! :p

They are all over. What's so special with tables in tables? :confused:

polestar

Yes, you're right, I checked the source... of course they're all over - I must have been having an off day :confused2 ... I think I'll crawl into a hole and hide for a while... :o
