Yes, it might be possible to achieve what you want with tables, but it is far from the ideal solution. And even if you do get it working in IE, who's to say it will continue to work in the next version (which is now in beta)? You say you do not have time to learn CSS. Well, I suppose that's your call, but if you're planning on building a house, wouldn't it be a good idea to learn the skills of carpentry, masonry, etc. Complaining of a layout problem with tables is like building a house of straw and then complaining that it falls down every time the wind blows. Personally, I think it's worth the time and effort to learn CSS, especially since basic CSS isn't all that complicated. All you are doing, after all, is applying styling to HTML you already know (although it will definitely require a new way of thinking about structure). Personally, I think it is always more important to get it done right than it is to get it done quickly. And you say you are doing this site for a friend, and not a client, right? Might not your friend understand if you wanted to invest a little more time in the project? Maybe I'm being idealistic. I do wish you the best of luck and hope you find a solution, one way or another, to your problem. Sorry if this posted sounded harsh. I was hoping to be persuasive, not negative.
