Topic: Funky Table

Hey all! Me again, hehe.

Here's a link: http://www.geocities.com/genevievescu/Ozone/Page21.html

As you can see, on the right hand side there is a table. What you SEE starts with "Why does the GP-B" though the table borders only go around "WHY LOW ORBIT?" etc. That title SHOULD be above "Why does the GP-B" and I don't know what I did wrong. If you look at my source:

<table class="left" width=250 cellspacing="2">

<tr>

<th><h3>WHY LOW ORBIT?</h3></th>

</tr>

<tr>

<p>Why does the GP-B satellite orbit so close to the Earth's atmosphere? Even at the edge of 

the Earth's atmosphere, the individual molecules and atoms of the atmosphere create too 

much friction for the satellite to follow its precise orbit. Why not orbit farther from 

Earth, outside its atmosphere?</p>

</tr>

<tr>

<p>The reason is that the effects of local spacetime (its curve and twist) weaken 

dramatically as one moves farther from the Earth. GP-B chose an orbit that would get it as 

close to the Earth as possible, to see the spacetime effects more clearly. A 400-mile altitude 

was the closest GP-B could get with a tolerable amount of atmospheric friction.</p>

</tr>

</table>

perhaps you can tell me what the heck I did wrong? I think I did the table like I have all the others so far. Any help is appreciated!

Nothing is allowed to go directly in <tr> tags except for <td> and <th> tags (and maybe one or two other obscure tags that i'm forgetting).

So change things like
<tr><p>...</p></tr>
to
<tr><td><p>...</p></td></tr>

And see what happens.

Whoops! ::falls over:: I totally forgot the stupid things. Thanks!! No wonder none of my other tables were acting funky, just this one: all the others actually HAVE <td> and <th> and not just text in the <tr> tags. hehehe.

Thanks again!
