Menu is writing over table

Hi there...

new to this, so any pointers are much appreciated.
Using vertical XP menu.

Simple scenario:

<table><Tr><td>
-- MENU CODE HERE --
</td></tr></table>

<more tables... more stuff...>

However, the menu is writing over ALL the tables... what I want the menu to do is FILL the table it's in, so that the tables under it flow properly UNDER it.

Any advice on how to do this?

thanks

You haven't really given us any full code to go on, but see here for the proper way to embed the menu in a td.

Well I worked that one out fast

Sorry for the dumb question!

So I'd like to follow it up with something that's hopefully a little more intelligent...

Can anyone tell me how I can get a horizontal menu bar to FILL a cell of a fixed size?

Say, I have a <Td size=700>, and the natural size of the bar is 600. How can I get the bar to fill to the size of the cell?

Thanks
