Next Website Challenge
I have successfully edited the website. And make some changes.
However, now I want to delete a character (person) listed.
We have 2 columns 3 deep for a total of six people. I want to take out the fifth one, and then center the sixth one on the bottom row. I can just delete number 5, but then 6 is still aligned in the second column way over to the right.
Any ideas?
I am using Notepad++ and FileZilla.

1. This is the code
For a 2 column, 3 row table. The bottom row cells are merged and centred.
Maybe you could compare this to the current table code and paste in what you wish to change.

<table width="200" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td>Name 1</td>
<td>Name 2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Name 3</td>
<td>Name 4</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"><div align="center">Name 5</div></td>
</tr>
</table>

2. I looked at the HTML
And since it was built using Adobe GoLive, for some reason it has an overly complicated table structure. The specific cell you want to edit has a colspan=5 attribute in it that seems completely unnecessary. Experiment with adding a removing TD tags (those are the table cells), and their corresponding /TD tags (those mark the end of the cell's script).

4. Well, CaneToad has done it. But I still have to study it to see how
he did it. I know by changing the code, the numbers, but I have to study it to see how.
And then take out the photo or image in the white shirt which is now on both sides. And move the base up a bit, so there is no long space at the bottom.
It's a learning experience. Thanks for the help.
