This is a great, great compromise! Kudos!
My only suggestion, other than this is way better than the gray version you
have in the reply, is to align the "read once" paragraph to the edges of the
three tables. Such as this:
<table>
<tr colspan="3"><td> ...insert read once paragraph...</td></tr>
<tr><td>
Imbeded table for past hour's news
</td>
<td>
Imbeded table for past day's news
</td>
<td>
Imbeded table for past weeks news
</td></tr>
</table>
The two sides of the paragraph will line up with the left border of the past
hour news section and the left border of the past weeks news section. It
will look a lot nicer!
Otherwise, awesome Todd!

| And also, for uniformity, why not make the imbeded tables that hold the post info a fixed size? I know I am just blabbing but this line is really a blab to add more to message. I need 10% of to be original. :-X ~Jeremy! (...) (22 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
