Css & HTML incompatability

css/html conflict
please help!

I have a page with html tables for css incompatable browsers.
The html table shows 10 rows of horizontally long article clips.
The css inside the tds creats 5 rows of 2 article clips each in absolute positioning. My OS is win 2000 proffessional, 800some memory, 2 gig processor & I use notpade to create my pages.

The problem is that when i created another td after the original coding this last td was unmanagable, the borders come and go wherever and the size is uncontrollable as well as positioning. This last Td is called "free sample products" and "freebie" in css.
Also, since the addition of the last td(which has further css inside it as well) adding things to the lefthand menu and the bottom link panel causes full page distortions.


I have checked the code in arachnophilia and it's correct. I have checked colspan/rowspan-though that could be the problem still.
I am concerned that the "invisable" html code is interfearing somehow, but I don't know how.

if you can help please do! i really need to get the site up and running.

Use absolute positioning sparingly. If I were you, I would put your summary paragraphs (your 5x2 's) in a table and only format the table with CSS.

If you want to make sure the page is full (100%) then you'll need to put this in your css

HTML,BODY{height:100%;}
