Help with floats...

I am trying replace TABLES with CSS in a program which generates HTML.

But I can't figure out how to do what I want.

With stylesheets: http://kowallek.myiglou.com/temp/I2391.htm

Stylesheet: http://kowallek.myiglou.com/temp/lrw.css

This is my CSS version. When I decrease the width of the browser window, the
DIVs on the right start to wrap around. The results look terrible.

With tables: http://kowallek.myiglou.com/dennis/genealogy/whl.htm

This is my TABLE version. You can see that it stays quite readable when the
width of the browser window is decreased.

Am I wasting my time trying to get this to work with just CSS? Should I stick
with tables?

Any suggestions are welcome.

P.S. I am a novice with stylesheets, so please bear with me. ;-)

And generating DIV soup in the process! Try something like:

I hear you. That's why I was having second thoughts about converting the
TABLEs to CSS. If the result is still a bunch of nested tags, then I haven't
improved anything.

Thanks for your suggestion. It's not exactly the way I wanted to lay things
out, but it's worth thinking about.
