I'm trying to clean up, and re-code my existing site. The current code is way too HUGE, and isn't even fully browser compatable 
I want the page to look pretty much the same, but I DO NOT want to use tables.
Can anyone suggest a good (hopefully fairly simple) way for me to achieve this look without using tables?
The page I'm talking about is at: http://penguins.thinkhost.com/Pindex.shtml
Thanks in advance to any who help

I think the only way to get that type of layout without tables is style sheets (which would do it only in 4+ browsers and then sometimes not perfectly), and it looks as though you have that in place as well as a table alternative..
It is all written to the page with JavaScript, which will make it a little more bulky. If it could be in straight HTML it should help a little, don't know if that really helps though..

That's what I was afraid of...
Supposedly, I'm supposed to be able to use the DIV tag in both Netscape and IE, but I never found out how to get it working correctly in NS, is there a way to do that?
Also, is it possible to have a single StyleSheet for different resolutions in IE? Right now my script detects the screen resolution, and directs the user to the appropriate stylesheet.
If I could have a single stylesheet for all resolutions, it would be a BIG help.

right now, it is really good cross-browser compatible. I get a blank screen in both NS 4.7 and IE5

Hehe, I just realized that'd probably be like that a few minutes ago.
I wasn't getting much response from the places I posted at, so I decided to just use a few CGI templates (using the old design code, but less JS) to speed things up.
Unfortunately, I've got a CGI poll running as well, and I didn't know how to call the CGI poll from inside another CGI script.. anyway, it got messy and I never changed the code back.
I'll fix the poll code, and that should let you view the page normally..
