Is it an error for the first site(The Cooking Place), to scramble up when the browser window is contracted?. I believe anything less than 577 pixels causes it to happen. Is there a way to force the tables from doing this?.

Thanks Kn@cKeR

Hi there,

No, it's not an error. Browsers will relocate images in a browser window, when they don't fit in the width of the table or document anymore.

There are work arounds, though. You could set explicit widths on the outer table, with HTML attributes (deprecated) or style attributes.
Alternatively, you could add a tiny <tr> that spans all columns in your table. Inside the <tr>, have a single <td> that in turn contains a spacer image of 1 x the width of the entire table.
Since an image can't be wrapped, the browser will add scrollbars instead of relocating the other images.
Since the image is invisible, you visitor's won't even notice it.

However, using a spacer image like is being considered "old skool" more and more. You're supposed to use techniques like CSS to fix these kind of problems. However, this will not always work 100%, depending on your target audience's browsers....

Cheers,

Imar
