Okay, just been nudging together a site for my uni basketball team, just have one problem now, need help please.
the url is http://huw41.tripod.com/aber/training
(the problem is on most of the other pages too, recycled my dodgy code :-S )
as you see, just below the host's banner ad is the top of my page. We have one table controlling the layout of the whole page, with a cell across the whole width of the page along the top.
In that cell, is a table of 2 rows
row 1:
cell 1 - 'uwa/pca', cell 2 - 'basketball', cell 3 - flags which link to welsh language bit (eventually)
row2:
one cell, colspan=3, which contains a table arranging the images for the nav bar (aligned to center).
padding and spacing are at 0, the combined width of the 3 top-row images is about 600.
problem is, my browser seems to be placing the first 2 images of the top row over the nav bar, as if the colspan was set at 2, leaving the third image jutting out on the right.
And i can't see why.
Can anyone help?

Argh.
I found it.
One of the images in the top row had a colspan of 2, i'd shifted text around without deleting it i guess.
Didn't notice it before as there was a cell 2 lines above that legitimately had colspan 2, so when i was looking through all the components of the code, i saw colspan 2 and figured it wasn't out of place.
I've [not] said it before and i'll [possibly] say it again, making assumptions is the html troubleshooter's worst enemy.
Thanks for the help, setting the border to 1 was very useful.

I've just read through the source, and I've found this:
A table cell surrounded by . Anything between these tags is not displayed by the browser, as it dinotes a note to the author. Try deleting the and tell me what happens. And, if you really need to use those tags, leave a space after the second dash on the opening tag, and before the first dash in the closing tag, so that, instead of getting
in the source code, you get

I'm doing something similar at the moment. My way of avoiding this problem is to set the borders of every table to 1. That way, you can see how every table and cell is rendering, and then read throug hthe source very, very carefully and try to find the problem from there. That's what I always do.
