Question

Answer 1

+5 A:

Without seeing your code very long - don't use tables!

I know it's hard for those people who developed a long time with tables in webdesign, but belive me - after you learned how to design it with CSS & DIV-Tags, you will thank god for this!

Here is a tutorial for you: http://www.colorplexstudios.com/articles/div_web_design_tutorial/

And if you want to have an answer to your code-question: It's because you have 1 cell in the first row and 3 cells in the second row. Use the colspan-attribute. You find a tutorial for this here: http://www.htmlcodetutorial.com/tables/index_famsupp_30.html

Answer 2

+1 A:

Don't use tables, use a right combination of div tags and position attributes. They're way better than tables, and more editable if you need to make any changes.

Answer 3

+1 A:

Eek, remove the tables. Use a UL instead, with display: inline on it in the CSS. Then adjust it to your liking (margin, padding). Put that inside of a div, and position it in your page.

Answer 4

+1 A:

As others have recommended, tables are not the most appropriate element for your site's layout. However, the simple fix is:

<td  id="tdBanner" colspan="7">

This will make your banner span the entire width of your table. On a side note, the ids on a page should be unique, so if you need to give an id to your td tags, they should be different than the a tags.

I would check out some of the CSS tutorials that others have linked to.
