That way it removes the > media-dependency on the individual cell(s). That's the correct answer to the wrong question. :-) I was just wondering here what the point is of WIDTH on TD. It just seems entirely out of place there - width information always applies to the entire column, not just the one cell. It *would* make sense if the table model allowed for cells overlapping parts of other columns (COLSPAN overlaps a cel into whole columns), but that's probably too much asked. - -- E-mail: galactus@htmlhelp.com ....................
