Table of Contents

various listings

on the left

over here, etc.

Sample Page Showing Problem:

This page uses:

  • background to provide green bar on left

  • table to divide space so that table of contents can be in the green area and other text can be in white area with basic structure:

<table width="100%">
<tr>
<td width="200">Table of Contents, etc...</td>
<td width="500">This page uses, etc...</td>
</tr>
</table>

See what happens when resize screen smaller. The text on white area does not collapse so readily into the green area until screen gets very small, but keep in mind W3C recommends having relative widths.
