OK,
I'm trying to get the BACK link to be centered under the table. I tried <p></p> and even <br> outside of the table code...not working...the best I've gotten it so far was inside of the table but aligned to the left (even though I set align="center" for the cell).

What's up with this?

<A HREF="javascript:history.go(-1)"><:back:></a>
</table>You have the <A> tag within the <TABLE> tags. It is illegal syntax to have any content in a <TABLE> tag. Content is only allowed inside a <TD>, <TH>, or <CAPTION> once inside the <TABLE>.

Actually, I'm sorry about the confusion there. That was at the point when I gave up and took a shower. It wasn't originally like that. It is now at the point where I started if you can refresh.

<table align="left" width="450" cols="3" border="1" bgcolor="#8C9EAB">The 'align="left"' is your problem. The content not included will "flow" around the table.

Always the smallest things...

Thank you.
