Float was a better idea by far. Also went with fixed widths on the subcontents and content to keep them from wrapping. using padding and margins to center the subcontents within the content block Thanks for the ideas!!

I think the reason I used <div>s is because I wanted their width to be adjusted based on number of blocks so they would be somewhat centered. I've give float a try and let you know. Thanks!

I'm trying to use divs to replace tables, so far so good. However, I'm having trouble getting the subcontent blocks to align horizontally Trouble is setting margins and widths as the number of divs will be dynamic (max 4) Example: <div content> ---------------------------------------------------- | block 1 | block 2 | block 3 | block 4 | ---------------------------------------------------- </div> // close content I keep getting the blocks falling vertically instead of horizontally I'm calculating width in a php script that determines how many blocks there will be. Then using [code] <div class="subcontent1" style="width:'.$width.'%"> [/code] for block 1 and [code] <div class="subcontent2" style="width: '.$width.'%; left:'.$margin.'%"> [/code] for the remaining blocks. $margin is increased as $margin = $margin + $width to move the remaining blocks over. I feel I'm either missing something or overcomplicating it. Please help [code] div.content {       position: absolute;       background-color: #fefefe;       color: #000033;       width: 100%;       top:  178px;       left: 0px;       padding: 2px;       font-weight: normal;       overflow: auto;       } div.subcontent1 {       text-align: center;       background-color: #efefef;       border-style: solid;       border-color: #637184;       border-width: 1px 1px 1px 1px;       padding: 2px;       position:absolute;       left: 0;       top: 0;       } div.subcontent2 {       text-align: center;       background-color: #efefef;       border-style: solid;       border-color: #637184;       border-width: 1px 1px 1px 1px;       padding: 2px;       position:relative;       top: 0;       } [/code]
