Table help, please?

Hey people, I would really appreciate some help with this. I've been trying for the past 2 hours to get the text to align left with the little swirlly picture, but it just stays over to the right and I have no idea why. It's really getting on my nerves and I just wanna solve it.

Preview to see what I'm talking about: http://after-sin.org/solo/ritsuka/love.html

I've tried everything I can think of and I just can't fix it, so maybe someone here can help me.

Here's my codes:

Code: Select all: <html> <head> <title>LOVELESS</title> <link href="kkitten.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet"> </head> <body bgcolor="#ffffff" background="mbg.jpg"> <table align="center" width="721" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr><td><img src="lay_1x1.jpg" width="721" height="234"></td></tr> <tr><td><img src="lay_2x1.jpg" width="721" height="225"></td></tr> <tr><td valign="top"><img src="lay_3x1.jpg"></td> <td class="content" valign="top"> <p class="head">Welcome</p> ...to Desolate Heart, a collective for all the fanlistings that I have joined or created and whatever else I feel the need to add in the future. My name is Solo. I run and maintain DH, as I'm sure you have figured out by now. Feel free to browse about and join some of my fanlists if you like. If you have any questions, <a href="mailto:bakasolo@gmail.com">let me know?</a> </td></tr> </table>

Hia

Not really 100% sure what you want, if you want the text to go under the swirl, I think you need to use DHTML layers.

If that is what you what take a look at this DHTML tut.

Hope that has helped, if not one of the others will soon help you.

Sorry, I should be more specific. I want the text to be right next to the swirl. Like this:

[Swirl]{Text stuff}

But instead, its all like this:

[Swirl]_______________________{text}

The text is way too far over. Thanks for the help, but that didn't solve. I appreciate it, though.

I don't really understand where you want the text,can you make like an image of it or something, just to show how you want it.

Okay, heres what I want it to be like. I want the text like this: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v642/ ... kethis.jpg

And it won't move over to there.

Hia

I understand what your asking for now, only thing is to be able to understand your layout better it would be best to temporarily turn borders on for the table.

Okay, I turned the borders on, I hope that helps.

Thanks.

Nope, that didn't work either. But I figured it out anyway. Turns out all I needed to add was some colspans in the top <Tds> so I'm all set now.

Thank you for the help.

Hia Try that

Code: Select all: <html> <head> <title>LOVELESS</title> <link href="kkitten.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet"> </head> <body bgcolor="#ffffff" background="mbg.jpg"> <table align="center" width="721" border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td colspan="3"><img src="lay_1x1.jpg" width="721" height="234"></td></tr> <tr> <td colspan="3"><img src="lay_2x1.jpg" width="721" height="225"></td></tr> <tr> <td valign="top"><img src="lay_3x1.jpg"></td> <td colspan="2" class="content" valign="top"> <p class="head">Welcome</p> ...to Desolate Heart, a collective for all the fanlistings that I have joined or created and whatever else I feel the need to add in the future.

Hope that helps
