With CSS compliant browsers, you can set a style on the table then use COL elements to enable incremental rendering. Column widths are almost always known for the presentational tables that are "always present". You can also specify widths and heights on images to allow correct size place holders to be displayed. --------------------------- DISCLAIMER --------------------------------- Any views expressed in this message are those of the individual sender, except where the sender specifically states them to be the views of BTS.
