Currently this page...

http://www.theskyfactory.com/catalog.php?list=Popular&section=c

... is constructed using PHP and crude tables to output some images into rows of 3 based on what the user is looking for.

I'm trying to make the page without using any tables and my latest attempt is here...

http://www.theskyfactory.com.mx/images/NEW/test.php


What I can't figure out is how to make the tan boxes around the images stretch to fit the largest image in each row.

could someone give me some tips?

Thanks.

You'll want to read about and understand Faux Columns (http://www.alistapart.com/articles/fauxcolumns/), then adapt them to these rows.

As toicontien has suggested, the faux column technique will work well here. A tiled background image, such as the one attached here, on the #SearchResults div will provide the look of columns, and an 8px wide white top border on the .Result divs (with no background colour), instead of the top/bottom margins, will provide the look of rows.
