I am creating my own website here and I have been having the problem of the table not staying put. When I add line breaks to the spot that says "text here", the pictures as well as the text shift out of position. I just started HTML two days ago so I am not very well versed. I need help repositioning the images and the text. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The required files are located here. Thanks in advance.

Get out of the idea of tables for design and learn HTML & CSS for layout.

I was told that it would be best to start off creating web pages with tables while I am still learning HTML. If I shouldn't be doing it with tables, how should I be positioning the elements. Do you have a working example?

Starting off with tables? Definitely NOT!!

And don't get hooked into the positioning mindset either, there is no need to actually position every single element on the page. Learn to use the document flow

Example?

Wow. That code is a lot shorter than mine. Do you have a tutorial that you have found to be really good? I realized that I should probably just start over learning HTML (the right way).

For tutorials take a look at the "stickied" threads at the top of this and the CSS forums.
