    n00b table question

    in html how do u make more than 1 table be side by side

    ie
    "Table 1" "Table 2" "Table 3"

    rather than
    "Table 1"
    "Table 2"
    "Table 3"

    also i need this code as simple as possible, as "I" need to be able to understand it

    thx

    Ugly HTML tricks: Put the tables in a table.

    Elegant, and correct ways: Try 'float'ing the tables. They should line up side by side in the container they are in. It requires CSS or inline style. I'm sure there are dozens of other ways. Absolute positioning comes to mind.
