Text below table appears to right of table

Question

I'm using the table function on a website builder and want to create space between tables so I can add text. When I place the text in what looks like the correct position between the tables on the builder page, when I view the page, the text appears to the right at the top of the tables.

I am able to edit in HTML, for example, inserting Paypal button codes, but I don't know enough about HTML to make the adjustment I need. Can someone give me the code that needs to be inserted between the two tables?

Here is the html for two of the tables. I want to create a space and add text between these two tables. There are several more similar tables above and below.

<table border="0" cellpadding="2" align="left">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="background-color: #b6da76; height: 30px; width: 200px;" valign="middle">
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>Zen Shiatsu*<br /></strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>$120</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong><img src="http://sedona.massagetherapy.com/bodywork_images/General_images/ABMP10_11.jpg" alt="" width="174" height="115" /><br /></strong></span></p>
</td>
<td style="background-color: #b6da76; height: 30px; width: 30px;" valign="middle">&nbsp;</td>
<td style="background-color: #b6da76; height: 30px; width: 325px;" align="left" valign="middle">
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;"><em><strong>Something different!</strong></em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Stretching, finger and palm pressure to balance and energize your meridians (energy channels). Experience a state of deep relaxation, while feeling fully energized.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Fully clothed session on a futon mat.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">(80 minutes)</p>
<form action=Paypal button</form></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

This is where I want the space and the text

<table border="0" cellpadding="2" align="left">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="background-color: #b6da76; height: 30px; width: 200px;" valign="middle">
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>Energy Medicine*<br /></strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>$95 - $145</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong><img src="http://sedona.massagetherapy.com/bodywork_images/DonnaEden3rdEyesmaller.jpg" alt="" width="119" height="177" /><br /></strong></span></p>
</td>
<td style="background-color: #b6da76; height: 30px; width: 30px;" valign="middle">&nbsp;</td>
<td style="background-color: #b6da76; height: 30px; width: 325px;" align="left" valign="middle">
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;"><em><strong>Empowering you in staying healthy!<br /></strong></em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Your first session with Jyoti needs to be an Initial Session for 90 minutes. After that, you may book individual sessions as needed. These sessions are around 75 minutes.</p>
<form action=Paypal button</form></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

IT WORKS FOR ME. JUST INSERT YOUR CODES THERE. I JUST RUSH IT.

<table width="492" border="1">

I've noticed you've skipped the end

"<table width="492" border="1">

Next time I checked the page, the text had jumped to the side of the tables again. I've tried re-doing it, in case there was any messy code making it do this, but even with starting over and putting

<p><br />
my text</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

between where one table finishes and the next one starts, the text still jumps. I guess it has something to do with the way the builder is set up, but I can't figure it out. To get around it, I put the text I needed inside a single row table. However, now I want to put links to a top anchor between each section as it's getting too long. Anyone else got some thoughts on this?

Just leave a reply if it is not what you want to happen, I'll be glad to help you out :)

And may I know hat software do you use in coding html?

jyotimagic 0 Newbie Poster · Answer 5 · 2011-05-10T08:46:42+00:00

Thanks, I'll give it a go. I don't know what the software is. I'm using a template/website package that comes with my massage association membership. They give some online help, but it hasn't been very useful in this instance.
