If there's no table, there are no cells, so no cell padding. One way to add spaces without using a table is to use  . Each one equals one space. It'll be hard to line things up, though.

Another way is to create a one pixel clear gif image, and then insert the image wherever you need to space things. You can vary the size of the space by changing the width attribute (and/or height, too) in the image tag.

Just use one big table around the whole thing.

Yet again, I come to the Buffistas, because I'm exhausted trying to even understand the instrucitons I've found on the internets.

I'm running BitTorrent. It works. But the website lists people I can't connect to, who don't even show up on my peers list. For instance, in my peers list, there's one peer with 100% of the thing I want, and I can't connect to him. (I want to kill him. He's just sitting there, hoarding it.) What is the reason for this? I've disabled my Windows firewall entirely, which I know is a bad idea, and apparently I'm not on a router, just a cable modem, so I shouldn't have to forward any goddam ports or whatever, but I can't figure out what I'm supposed to do to actually connect to the peers who are clearly there.

Can anyone clue me in to the inscrutable secret here? Seems I don't deal with frustration well.

Thanks all for the help. I'm pretty much done with the bones of it, mulling putting a photo of myself on there, is that craxy?

I'm sure there's a lot of extra code snarling up the works, so I'm going to take you up on your offer, Plei. Thanks so much!

Def. put a photo on there, Allyson!

I'm running BitTorrent.

What client are you using?

uh... BitTorrent 4.0.4. That's the client, right?

I know nothing, really. I shouldn't be allowed near a computer.

Zenkitty ... switch to Azureus ( [link] ) or ABC ( [link] )

Azureus is the better client but it uses Java and can suck up a lot of memory compared to ABC.

You then have to "open" a port to allow Bittorrent to connect. In Azureurs, goto -> Tools -> Options -> Connections, and where it says "Incoming TCP listen port" put in a port number. I use a randomly chosen port number in the 51 thousand port range, so I recommend you do the same (i.e. 51850). In ABC -> File -> Preferences -> Network -- ABC works differently to Azureus, so you have to add minimum and maximum port numbers (i.e Min 51850; Max 51950)

In Azureus, don't forget to click the "save" button at the bottom of the window once you've added the port number.

I'm sure there's a lot of extra code snarling up the works, so I'm going to take you up on your offer, Plei. Thanks so much!

No problem!

Just ship it off to me, and I'll try getting it cleaned and back to you by midweek.

Whoa, jimi. Azureus rocks. Thanks!
