Take a look at this:

As you can see, two tables are overlapped by IE. I tried using DIV tags and various other things and the only thing that I can think of to do is put in <BR> tags after the table where I need breaks. I don't believe my code is wrong, but go ahead and take a look.

Where's the overlap? I'm either blind, or its working, cause I don't see a problem...

It does appear to be working now. I did see an overlap before though.

Before, I had something like:
<TABLE ALIGN=LEFT WIDTH=50%>
......
</TABLE>
<TABLE ALIGN=RIGHT WIDTH=50%>
.....
</TABLE>
<TABLE WIDTH=100%>
....
</TABLE>
Table 3 in that series was being shown on top of right-aligned table 2. I fixed it by adding one big table with two seperate rows to seperate the first and second table from the third.
BUT, I really shouldn't have to do that.

There's your problem. Align in table aligns the table relative other content not absolutely on the page. Like align=left|right for images. It floats the element.
BTW your background colors didn't show in NS/Opera (haven't checked again now)
