Im trying to figure out where I went wrong. If you look at this site you will see that the guest book and hit counter are at the top of the page. I dont want them there, I want them at the bottom

http://www.geocities.com/officialnewfie/

Here is a copy of the index html. This is where the last pictures go in, there is filename.xxx etc. I copied and pasted the guestbook and hit counter below the pictures but they showed up above the pictures. I know it is something simple and stupid but Im not sure what.

If you WROTE all that, that was a sheer waste of time.

If it was a program, get a better one.

After looking over all the errors on the page I think my best bet would be to just scrap the page and maybe I should look for another hobby. So much for trying to win the girlfriends heart back.

With all the errors on the page Im surprised it worked at all.

I agree with liljim it's not that bad
I would put your guestbook and counter in it's own table under the table
you already have. Then just close the first table like this (</table>) before you start the second table.

My next question

If you look at the site you will see that the picture thing-a-ma-bob what ever you call it is hiding the background. I would like to move it down to where one background changes to a new one, there is a definate line there. I tried a whole bunch of <br>'s and it dropped it down but there was a bunch of em. How do I get it so the top border of the pictures box is on the line of the starting of the second background?

Have no fear its going to get more complicated after I solve this one
