Re: html tables (use percentages!!)

You should be expressing your tables with percentages so
they reformat for different fonts, resolutions, screen widths,
monitor sizes etc. I use NOTHING BUT TABLES all over my website,
go look at my main page and look at the table expressions:

Is the first line of my first table, it will format the table
to 63% of ANY screen that views it (and yes I've looked at it
on 13-14-15-17-21" monitors to prove this true).

Dreamweaver does this automatically since it requires a percentage
for each table you create, and can be adjusted manually in the
hardcore HTML editor (wordpad or default editor).

Didn't you know this? :)
