Stretch?

[DanUK]

Hey, I have a couple of questions please, if you don't mind. Any help you can give is much appreciated.

At the moment, my website (HTML) is made up of a table, with 2 columns, the left for navigation with a background image, and the right for the logo/content.
At the moment, you can 'stretch' the page smaller and it starts hiding some of the background image of the left column, how can i stop it being resized and shrinking?

Any help you can give is much appreciated. Thanks!!!

There are a couple of things you can do

<table>
<tr>
<td width=xxx>.....</td>
<td>....</td>
</tr>
</table>

or a trick I like to use to allow the table to expand but only contract to a limited size
<table>
<tr>
<td><img src=transparant.gif width=xxx height=1><br> .....</td>
<td>....</td>
</tr>
</table>

ahh so you just have to specify a width?
