Default HTML help

Yes, once again I'm asking for help.

Is there a trick that will align text within a table? In both Netscape and
IE. One cell in the table contains a very long list. The second cell is also
a list, but not as long - yet.

See: http://www.aospacificcentral.org/indexlist.html

I *think* my trouble comes from having the text centered in both cells.
Since one list is shorter than the other I had to add paragraph 'spacers' to
the end of it (the 2003 list) in order so the text would be visually aligned
with the text in 2002. Its aligned when I view the page in Netscape, but off
when viewed with Internet explorer. If there's a common technique then I'll
use it. If not then that's the way the cookie crumbles and that's the way
the page stays. I'm not going to obscess over getting the lists to line up.

Thanks!

K,

You might try adding the "valign=top" option to the definition of BOTH
cells, so it would look like the following:

TD BGCOLOR="#f0c98e" WIDTH="50%" valign="top"

In this way you can also remove all the P /P.

Just one thing. This works in MSIE but I don't have Netscape available for
testing this at the moment, so you have to try that yourselves.
I hope it helps to solve you problem.

All the best,

Rob Zuiderwijk
