dodgeitorelse Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 wrap each table in its own div and use float is an option. <div style="float: left;"> <table width="600" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" bgcolor="#ffffff" align="center" > <tr> <td>Popular Features </td> </tr> <tr height="25"> <td height="25" bgcolor="#f5f5f5"><font color="#ce0000"> » </font><a href="www.test.com" target="_blank">Title 1</a> </td> </tr> <tr height="25"> <td height="25"><font color="#ce0000"> » </font><a href="www.test.com" target="_blank">Title 2</a> </td> </tr> <tr height="25"> <td height="25" bgcolor="#f5f5f5"><font color="#ce0000">» </font><a href="www.test.com" target="_blank">Title 3</a> </td> </tr> <tr height="25"> <td height="25"><font color="#ce0000">» </font><a href="www.test.com" target="_blank">Title 4</a> </td> </tr> <tr height="25"> <td height="25" bgcolor="#f5f5f5"><font color="#ce0000">» </font><a href="www.test.com" target="_blank">Title 5 </a> </td> </tr> <tr height="25"> <td height="25"><font color="#ce0000">» </font><a href="www.test.com" target="_blank">Title 6</a> </td> </tr> </table> </div> <div style="float: right;"> <table width="600" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" bgcolor="#ffffff" align="center"> <td width="300"><a href="http://blast.verticalscope.com/oi3-vs/scripts/script.php?id=12536&uid=2381352&messageId=1690&mid=2639" target="_blank"><img width="300" height="250" border="0" align="middle" alt="" src="http://img.verticalscope.com/atv.com/newsletters/images/09072011/Kawasaki-300x250.jpg"></a> </td> </table> <table width="600" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" bgcolor="#ffffff" align="center"> <tr> <td>Reviews</tr> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <a href="http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSgfnlqd9YfSAZ73KbO6p4jzScBCwFCBTWvLjyepmfTF-jYVokI" target="_blank"><img border="0" align="left" alt="" src="http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSgfnlqd9YfSAZ73KbO6p4jzScBCwFCBTWvLjyepmfTF-jYVokI">F1 </a> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <a href="http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSgfnlqd9YfSAZ73KbO6p4jzScBCwFCBTWvLjyepmfTF-jYVokI" target="_blank"><img border="0" align="left" alt="" src="http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSgfnlqd9YfSAZ73KbO6p4jzScBCwFCBTWvLjyepmfTF-jYVokI">F2 </a> </td> </tr> </table> <table width="600" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" bgcolor="#ffffff" align="center"> <tr> <td>Registry</tr></td> </tr> <tr> <td> <a href="http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQiYqLEBA3H4giuf4HbigPqpOiAMMivFF-Xy838nGacOBjntovCHQ" target="_blank"><img border="0" align="left" alt="" src="http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQiYqLEBA3H4giuf4HbigPqpOiAMMivFF-Xy838nGacOBjntovCHQ">L1 </a> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <a href="http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQiYqLEBA3H4giuf4HbigPqpOiAMMivFF-Xy838nGacOBjntovCHQ" target="_blank"><img border="0" align="left" alt="" src="http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQiYqLEBA3H4giuf4HbigPqpOiAMMivFF-Xy838nGacOBjntovCHQ">L2 </a> </td> </tr> </table> </div> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
php_begins Posted September 30, 2011 Author Share Posted September 30, 2011 How can CSS possibly interfere with a mail function? The two aren't in any way related. What I meant was the whole code would go inside the body of a mail function and would be sent to different email addresses . I do not want css inside the body of the mail functiom since some email clients do not receive css very well. Therefore it would be suitable in this case to have only html elements inside the code.

Pikachu2000 Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Then if you have to use tables, it sounds like nested tables is about your only option, right? <table border="1"> <tr> <td> <table border="1"> <tr> <td>First nested table</td> </tr> </table> </td> <td> <table border="1"> <tr> <td>Second nested table</td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
