There may be an extremely easy answer to this question, but I can't seem to find it...

I'm using a table to organize the placement of the data on my page. I would like the table cells to always top align, e.g., not move the text in the other table cells if one cell is longer than another. Is there any way to do this? The way it is right now, my graphics (sliced and in the table) are being pushed around sometimes depending on how much text there is in one or another of the cells. I've got a hack in place right now to add some extra carriage returns if one of my cells is not long enough causing the table to be all screwed up but, as I said, it's a hack. Any advice would be appreciated. TIA.

Simple. Change your &lt;TR&gt;'s to read &lt;TR valign="top"&gt;. Get rid of the carriage returns.
