*****
<table align=center cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=0>

<tr>

<td valign=top>



<table align=center cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=0>


<tr>
<td align=center colspan=3 bgcolor=red>

<img src=&quot; width=1 height=1>

</td>
</tr>


<tr>

<td valign=middle align=center>
<img src=&quot; width=1 height=1>
</td>


<td valign=top align=center>
<table align=center cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=0>
<tr>
<td>

this is a test.

</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>


<td valign=middle align=center bgcolor=red>
<img src=&quot; width=1 height=1>
</td>

</tr>


<tr>
<td valign=middle align=center colspan=3 bgcolor=ffffff>

<img src=&quot; width=1 height=1>

</td>
</tr>

</table>


</td>

<td valign=top>

<img src=&quot; width=10 border=0>

</td>


<td valign=top>

<img src=&quot; width=400 height=300 border=1>

</td>


</tr>

</table>
*****


the problems are as follows...

1) the top red 'line' looks more like a thick block instead of a thin line.

2) suppose the big table is the text. the side table, (red outline) is the nav. the vertical red outline should follow the main table all the way down to it's end. if the height of the main table is 1000, (or whatever size), then the red vertical line should follow., etc.

3) in netscape, (i know, i know!) the lines look funky and way too wide.


it's gotta be simple, but i can't figure out. but i want to use this code. please if anyone can tailor it to take away the problems.
