You should check out overflow values and become more 'fluent' in tables :-). I personally love dynamic tables, but I've started to lean more twards div tags and css. It provides ALOT more flexibility, but its a new field for me. I'm setting up a page in php right now for my school and I'm thinking about using css design on that. Very good practice that is.

By the way, if a page is set for one resolution, it's considered to have absolute positioning, and if it has "dynamic tables", that is called relitive positioning *spell check* :-P
