The basic <table> translation would be this <table> <tr><td width=50%></td><td width=50%></td></tr> <tr><td width=50%></td><td width=50%></td></tr> ... </table> And, actually I've done this, but the only way CSS will display it correctly is when ALL boxes are float:left, which makes it impossible for me to center my main box on the page. (I've also COMPLETELY given up any hope of margin or padding working with % widths. Absolute it is from here on out) You can view the closest I've come here http://www.lelon.net/tests Please help. Thanks in advance.

Having said that, if you are trying to display rows of data then use tables. That's what they're for. Just make sure you have a header row for the screen readers. _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is. GAWDS Now where did I put that Doctype?
