I have an HTML question. I am taking this page [link] and moving it into our CMS. To do that, I have to change the table width from 700 to 550, since our CMS requires content fit in the correct sized box.
When I change the table width, the hand-coded, using 'div class' tags, spacing gets frelled up. (It comes out like this: [link] ) Is there any way to fix this other than going in to each example and counting the spaces required and moving the hand-coded tags? This is one page of about 20, each with about 10 exmples, that I need to move.
Or should I thow myself on the mercy of our in-house web developers?

The odd jumps to the next line seem to be caused by a div starting at that point. On most entries, the div class "apa" opens and closes, and then opens again to cause the line break. It's made fuzzier by the font size not being part of the div class.

The guy who originally coded it is an asshole, if that matters.
Can I just strip out the whole div thing and put in ' ' spaces by hand? I'm thinking that would be easier. I can't imagine why he used a div in the first place.

So, did he create one div class with a single number of spaces, and then use that class everywhere he needed that number of spaces?
Or did overwrite the class, and hand code a number of spaces each time? The second sounds a lot more assholeish, so I assume that is what happened.

So now I can say he's an incompetent asshole? Why don't I e-mail what to do? Profile addy good?
