Okay, just been dusting off my html coding, and started on what was going to be a short, simple project in the easter break. But problems in my code have reared their ugly heads.

I'm working on the table for the general layout. I've set the border to 1 to show where the individual cells are, and there's a row of single empty cells along the top to show the columns.

http://rooneynet.tripod.com/table2.html

shows what I'm trying to go for, except that the 'main page content cell' should be bigger, and spread beneath the logo image. In theory I should be able to do this, by adjusting the appropriate cells' colspan attributes.

I've tried to do this in the following page. Unfortunately, it didn't quite work out:

http://rooneynet.tripod.com/table3.html


To view source, remember that the vast majority of the code is put in by tripod for their banners and stuff.
Scroll to the bottom of the source file, and you can pretty much see where my code starts, in the table tag just above the bunch of cell tags with   s in (the row of empty cells).


*Note: I've tried adding text to the main content cell to puch it across, it doesn't work...

So, for some reason a bunch of cells are taking up loads of space, and nothing's lining up like it was intended to.

Any help?
Please

Is this what you were after:

You can ignore the background colour and all, just the Table you'll need to cut and paste (if this is what you wanted).

Had a look into it, and I see that the bottom cell is spanning way to much, but as of yet, I can not see why.

I've tried a few things, but come up with the same effect, of the last row streching more than required and its even ignoring the width="" its given.

I've added an extra set of to each Row, to allow for the logo image to span two cells, which (should, but didn't) allow the bottom 'main content' cell to span back to a more suitable position.

I'll give something else ago.
