      It's hard for me to explain here but two things I suggest is worry about the text after you have written it all then space the table correctly. If you're saying it will not go in paragraph form and it's all on one line that's because you have it set to "preformatted" and you should set it to "paragraph" and it will write correctly. Still worry about the spacing after you have the words written.

          Not sure what u expect to happen it's a table with a single row and single cell which is set to 500px width. The width is therefore 500px...
          SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

            well i want to just fill up 500x500 with text. however, when i reach the end of the table (ie the 500th px) it doesnt go to the next line, it makes the table wider.

              Yeah man you're going to have to play around with a lot more you have to learn a lot more. You should make more columns and put things in their own columns.

                  I definitely don't get that behaviour. The width is fixed in the table, row and cell tags. Is it just the design mode you're working in, try working in split mode so you can see the code as well. If the 500px width attributes don't change then the width isn't changing, also try putting a border on it and hitting f12 to see it in the browser - does the table size change?

                    <td width="500" height="500" border="0"> just remove the width and the height of the cell and set the line to this <td> and it will work for you mate...

                        this will work for you...:
                        <table width="176" heigth="500" border="0">
                        <tr>
                        <td>
                        <img src="http://www.helpmyhtml.com/myhtmlisshitty/slice.jpg">
                        this text stays on on das a asd as dasasd sa das dsa daddas asd asd as dasd asd
                        asd asd asd as as as dasd as asda das asdasdas das asd as asdasa asas</td>
                        </tr>
                        </table>
                        Anyways you have many settings that you don't really need setup here...

                            problem solved...to some degree....apparently if you have a word that is longer than the width of the table it will expand it....this makes no sense...

                                yep html will do that as it can't do on the fly hyphenation.

                                  Whoa..!

                                  Could it be something as simple as spelling..? I don't know if it's the case here, but check this:

                                  <table width="500" heigth="500" border="0">
                                  <tr width="500" height="500" border="0">

                                  Notice how You have "height" spelt differently in those two lines?
                                  The correct spelling is "height", not "heigth".

                                  These kind of errors are WAY to easy to get when coding tired, dealt with that a few times myself

                                    it certainy makes sense....if you add an image that is bigger than the table width it will also expand....

                                        man, just set the CELL width of it.

                                        Example

                                        [CODE]
                                        <table align="center">
                                        <tr>
                                        <td width="600">TEXT GOES HERE</td>
                                        </tr>
                                        </table>
