    Ok ... Im not sure where to start on the following ...

    I have a single page web site that is made up of six tables that run down vertically on the page.
    All the tables are set to 780px in width.

    At the moment the tables are in the following order

    <table1>
    <table2>
    <table3>
    <table4>
    <table5>
    <table6>

    What i want to do is reorder them so my more important text and infomation appears at the top of the source code but still produce the output page in the normal format.

    So really i want to reorder the tables in the source like ...

    <table5>
    <table2>
    <table1>
    <table4>
    <table3>
    <table6>

    But make it display to the visitor of the site as ....

    <table1>
    <table2>
    <table3>
    <table4>
    <table5>
    <table6>

    Can one have any sample code ? or suggestions.

    Many thanks
    D.

    So is absolute positioning...

    I'd suggest you re-think the approach.
    If content5 is most important, why is it at the bottom?
