Insert in the HEAD section. <style type="text/css"> td { width: 200px; } td.name { width: 350px; }</style> This would make all cells 200px wide except for those given the class "names". To make each column a different width, use a class for all but one, e.g. <style type="text/css"> td { width: 140px; } td.names { width: 371px; } td.style { width: 64px; } td.date { width: 131px; } </style> Then code the table <tr> <TD class="names"><P><B>Address or Name</B></P></TD> <TD class="style"><P><B>Style</B></P></TD> <TD class="date"><P><B>Date</B></P></TD> <TD><P><B>Directory View</B></P></TD> </tr> </TR> <TR VALIGN=TOP> <TD><A HREF="<view-source:http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~ctmanshs/view-source:http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/%7Ectmanshs/forest_rd_86/forest_rd_86_web.htm>forest_rd_86/forest_rd_86_web.htm">86 Forest Rd</a></TD> <TD>Colonial</td> <TD>1828</td> <TD><A HREF="<view-source:http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~ctmanshs/view-source:http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/%7Ectmanshs/forest_rd_86/>forest_rd_86/">Directory view</A></TD> </TR> Pat Asher
