im a newbie and would like some help on how to create tables in static pages so that they align with the top part. It seems that when i create the table using html and just copy the code into the static page it creates a big gap on top of the table.

Isn't that pretty much the same question that has just been answered here?

bye, Dirk

i've tried again and the table doesn't align to the top of the page even if I specified in the html code to align to the top.

At this point, it may be a good idea to post a URL ...

bye, Dirk

I won't be able to post an url because the site isn't live yet. Here is the html code that I used in the staticpage to create the table with two columns.

<table width="571" border="0">

<td width="279"><div align="left"><strong>Pick 'n Pay<br>

Raymond Ackerman</strong>, <strong>Pick 'n Pay</strong> Founder and Chairman, have told the company's board that he will not leave the company until 'we win the petrol wars'. In a wide-ranging interview with Business Report's Ann Crotty, Ackerman said that the price of petrol could drop by as much as R2,00 per litre, if one 'removes the edifice that controls the whole industry.'<br>
