Use tables to control placement.

If you become a guru, you might graduate to CSS for layout, but for now use tables.

Are you talking about form fields?

If so, place them in a two column table. I usually set to 60-70% for forms. Labels on left and fields on right of course.

<div align="center">
  <center>
  <table border="0" cellpadding="0" width="60%">
    <tr>
      <td width="50%"></td>
      <td width="50%"></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td width="50%"></td>
      <td width="50%"></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td width="50%"></td>
      <td width="50%"></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td width="50%"></td>
      <td width="50%"></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td width="50%"></td>
      <td width="50%"></td>
    </tr>
  </table>
  </center>
</div>

If you are talking about general page view, you could place content into a table set to 100%.

Honestly, I think CSS will be taking over for page layout.
