Magnificent Tables

Magnificent Tables

One of the most misunderstood and misused items in the arsenal of the web builder are "Tables".

Tables allow you to have precis control over the appearance and location of items on you web pages.

They are not difficult to put in to use and once you start to use them, you will soon wonder how you ever managed without them!

I don't plan to start a tutorial on tables, well not just yet anyway, as there are some excellent tutorials available.
What I want to do is to open your eye's as to some of the possibilities open to you if you start to use them in a planned manner.

If you would like an easy to use learn by example table construction course then visit

WebTutor

This is the home of a magnificent Tables, Forms and Frames Tutorial file that you download and install on your own machine. It's beautiful and well worth getting - it's free!

I expect your thinking, "yes but I know how to use Tables" and your probably right, but there's using and there's using. Take a look at the image below. Nothing strange about it is there.........???

***The Mother in Law comes to visit?***

Look what happens if I turn on table borders..........it's a Table!!
All this and more is included in an excellent tutorial that you can download for free from Webtutor.

If this deosn't impress then think for a moment, if the whole image was an animated gif you would have spent around 30 minutes downloading this page.

To be continued, so please call back .........soon!!
