You cannot add text next to a table unless it is nested.

I.E.

Insert a table on your page with the width set to 100% and with two columns.

Insert another table into the left hand column of the first table. You can then write in the right hand column of the table.

There is a setting for the vertical alignment in a table. Set this to Top and the text will start at the top of your table. (valign=top)

Close baker, but not quite true.
You can do what 'THIS' is looking for with an 'align="left" rather than defaulting.
like this:
[Sorry if this spams anyone, but copy this code into your preferred editor and check it out, it is compatible with any brower, at least that I have access to]

<table width="350" border="1" align="left" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bordercolor="#000000">
<tr>

Looks like it works to me.

I appear to stand corrected.

Guess you learn something new every day.
