I have this table:
[tt]
<TABLE bgcolor=&quot;lightBlue&quot; width=&quot;770&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; align=&quot;center&quot; border=&quot;1&quot;>
<FORM name=&quot;scrollForm&quot;>
<TR>
<TD rowspan=&quot;4&quot; background=&quot;leftFade.gif&quot; width=&quot;25&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/blank.gif&quot;>
<TD align=&quot;center&quot; width=&quot;485&quot; colspan=&quot;2&quot;>
<INPUT type=&quot;text&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; name=&quot;ranMsg&quot; size=&quot;35&quot;>
<TD rowspan=&quot;4&quot; background=&quot;rightFade.gif&quot; width=&quot;25&quot; align=&quot;center&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/blank.gif&quot; align=&quot;center&quot;>
<TR>
<TD align=&quot;center&quot; rowspan=&quot;3&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;symbol.gif&quot;>
<TD align=&quot;center&quot; width=&quot;215&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;aniText.gif&quot;>
<TR>
<TD align=&quot;center&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/home3.gif&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/groups1.gif&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/contacts1.gif&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/weboard1.gif&quot;>
<TR>
<TD align=&quot;center&quot;>

<TD colspan=&quot;2&quot; background=&quot;middleFade.gif&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/blank.gif&quot;>
<TD background=&quot;rightCornerFade.gif&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/blank.gif&quot;>
<FORM>
</TABLE>
[/tt]
It displays fine in Netscape and Opera, but in IE &quot;aniText.gif&quot; and the input box named &quot;ranMsg&quot; are not displayed aligned centrally. I have spent ages trying to figure out why and so would be very grateful for any clues. -Ed ;-)

1) always close the <tr> with </tr> and <td> width </td> and also close the form with </form> !!!!
Older netscape versions won't forgive you this !!

2)Your problem has soemthing to do width the &quot;total width&quot; of the rows. I made some changes. Search the changes for yourself. Try something like this:

<TABLE bgcolor=&quot;lightBlue&quot; width=&quot;770&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; align=&quot;center&quot; border=&quot;1&quot;>
<FORM name=&quot;scrollForm&quot;>
<TR>
<TD rowspan=&quot;4&quot; background=&quot;leftFade.gif&quot; width=&quot;25&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/blank.gif&quot;></td>
<TD align=&quot;center&quot; width=&quot;720&quot; colspan=&quot;2&quot;>
<INPUT type=&quot;text&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; name=&quot;ranMsg&quot; size=&quot;35&quot;></td>
<TD rowspan=&quot;4&quot; background=&quot;rightFade.gif&quot; width=&quot;25&quot; align=&quot;center&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/blank.gif&quot; align=&quot;center&quot;></td></tr>
<TR>
<TD align=&quot;center&quot; rowspan=&quot;3&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;symbol.gif&quot;></td>
<TD align=&quot;center&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;aniText.gif&quot;></td></td></tr>
<TR>
<TD align=&quot;center&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/home3.gif&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/groups1.gif&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/contacts1.gif&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/weboard1.gif&quot;></td></tr>
<TR>
<TD align=&quot;center&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/pictures1.gif&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/music1.gif&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/chatroom1.gif&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/links1.gif&quot;></td></tr>
<TR height=&quot;25&quot;>
<TD background=&quot;leftCornerFade.gif&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/blank.gif&quot;></td>
<TD colspan=&quot;2&quot; background=&quot;middleFade.gif&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/blank.gif&quot;></td>
<TD background=&quot;rightCornerFade.gif&quot;>
<IMG src=&quot;menuText/blank.gif&quot;></td></tr>
</FORM>
</TABLE>

Hope this helps,
Erik
