Hi,

I have inherited a website, and I am getting stuck with trying to manipulate the coding. on this page... http://www.mytesting.co.uk/dave/about.htm the width of the text area is too wide...

But everytime I try to narrow the table the text sits in, the text re-sets to the center.

I would like the text to stay where it is about 10px right of the left hand menu.

So I need to be able to make both columns of text slightly narrower...

Any ideas?

Changing the table width is not all that is needed. You must change the width of the two td's holding the text. The middle td also has a nested table containing the six images at the bottom which will have to be reconfigured into two td's instead of one.

Site was inheirted...needs a complete re-write...no time for that...so just need a solution to current problem...

IF you look at this URL http://www.mytesting.co.uk/dave/about_test.html

this is what happens when I adjust the width to fit. Which is completely not what I wanted...as I would like the text of the first column to be about 10px away from the left hand menu.

Becasue I didn't write this website I have no real idea why it was coded in this manner in the first place
