I'm working on a new layout. It's my first time using PHP, and first time not using frames or IFRAMES. I feel like I'm ALMOST done with the layout, but I have one last problem that I can't figure out.

</HEAD><BODY LEFTMARGIN=0 TOPMARGIN=0 MARGINWIDTH=0 MARGINHEIGHT=0>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css"/>
<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top" align="left">
<?php @ require_once("header.html"); ?>
</td>
<td width="1" align="left">
<h4>
This stuff should be waayyy to the left, with some space after the menu.
</h4>
<?php @ require_once("footer.html"); ?></td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
If you need the code for the menu, footer or style sheet:

As you can see, my problem is with where the content should be. It sticks to the right, has puny width, and doesn't stretch with the window.
It's been a brainbuster just getting to this point, and I'm completely fried. I feel like it's a simple problem with my tables, but I just can't catch it. If anyone could be kind enough to go through and spot my problem, I would be very happy because I'm on the verge of dumping the PHP and just using frames.
