I notice some table cell tags in there, orphaned: no table row, or table for that matter. You aren't showing us all the relevant code, and that makes it nearly impossible to help you.

hi,

thanks for the reply. It would be very kind of you if you could help me out of this problem.

I am pasting the code here.

<html>
<head>

<?php mosShowHead(); ?>

<?php if ( $my->id ) initEditor(); ?>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; <?php echo _ISO; ?>" />
<link href="<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/alow/css/template_css1.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>

I see that you're mixing divs and tables... usually one or the other is used for layout, but not both. The "center" tag is deprecated. Also, your leftname style has width set to 100% and also "auto". I doubt anything could be "side-by-side" with a 100% width block-level element.
