I assume you intend to make a menu in one cell and want to show the
correspondig content in another cell.
If so, create a new page with the same table and menu and the target
content.
If the layout of the page is not too complex: use a div for the menu and
another div for the content.
To avoid duplication you can include the menu on every page with PHP: <?php
include "menu.htm"; ?>

You can do this literally by using frames. You set up a page with a
frameset, the frames being laid out as a grid. In some frames you can
have what amount to whole webpages (yes, even like a page with a gallery
of thumbnails which when clicked shows enlargements of each).

In other frames you have links to this particular frame, when you click
you click into a whole world. So yes, you can do it, there is just the
tool for you to do this, frames. And easy too.

There are downsides to this. But the upside is that it is a heck of a
lot of fun. I suppose you will crumble by the assault of all the old
killjoys who will tell you how evil is the course I am proposing for you
to explore.

If you are not sure what I am saying, ask and I will make a demo for
you.

Hi Nico, if we can for a moment abstract from the pros and cons of
frames, the technology is ideal for what I was imagining the OP might be
wanting. I don't know how much folk these days know about frames so I
don't know where I should start to explain? And, it is true that OP was
not perfectly clear what he wanted. But it is just standard in frames
technology to click on a link in one frame and to target another frame.

I was just saying, not particularly recommending. Was reminiscing to the
time when I had such fun with frames once... <g>.

I am sure columns, includes, links and html pages in a modern way would
also simulate the job wanted by OP as you indicated in your correct post
before.

If someone intends to built *one* website and doesn't want to pay for a
professional, then frames are ideal.
A solution with div's will be way to complex fot those people. A table is
easier, but even something like a simple php-include can be a problem
because for testing on local PC one needs to install Apache and PHP.
