Thank you Jerome Gobuyan, Stephen Volkmann, and David Maxwell for your

I'm just a novice with more enthusiasm then knowledge but I'm learning. I'm
fuzzy on html and don't know much about css. I'm using the free Nvu wysiwyg html
editor.

Since CSS has been recommended I'm trying both an html and css version. I'm in
the dark about the css (if you know a good free css editor please let me know)
but I'm giving it a shot.

Both versions look fine with Firefox but in IE a few different things go wrong
with the CSS version. BTW, I do want the table sizes at a set value.

CSS version in IE the margins are suppose to be 10px and appear to be correct in
the lower tables but not the top table, the margin is too narrow around the top
logo photo and the blue bar with text below it. It all looked ok in the editor
and again worked fine in Firefox (and ok with the the html version).

CSS verison in IE the lower tables I want centered side by side but if I set
both to center then one goes to the bottom so for now I have one set to center
and one set to left. Can't figure how to get around that.

CSS version in IE when the browser window is reduced to the Restore Down size
the right lower table is moved to beneath the lower left table (didn't look for
this in Firefox).

For both CSS and HTML in some PCs with IE the text in the top blue bar is the
wrong size and makes two lines of text instead of one so I'm thinking of just
getting a screen shot of it and putting it in as an image instead.

Here's the two versions, any input appreciated...
