Everyone, I (sort of) discovered why it was happening. Large bodies of text (and, actually, just about anything else) is converted into tables by Front Page. Good old MicroSoft - I used to create my pages in just html, but decided to teach myself Front Page. Lucky for me I do know html since I was able to delete the offending code referring to tables - now the pages are correct. Thanks anyway - maybe this information will help someone else down the road Gail Valorie Zimmerman wrote: > Gail, I'm no expert, but it looks like you are using a frame as your > left border, rather than using a table.
