I am not sure this is the correct location to post a technical question but hope that someone out there may have run into this situation. I have inherited a website for which I manage content; the owners of the site would like to have a "cluster" of pictures ... one larger picture on the Left with three smaller pictures to it's right forming a large 'rectangle' with white spaces dividing the 4 images. The easiest way I could find to make this happen was to create a 2-column, 3-row table with the 3 cells in the first column being merged. I can set the cell spacing to the desired thickness of the white boarders but am having difficulty with the image dimensions. Here is what I had to date:
- Cell spacing is set to 4; cell padding is set to 0.
- Column 1 is 450 pixels wide; the one cell is 3*100 = 100 + (2*4) = 308 pixels tall (to try and account for the cell spacing between rows 1/2 and 2/3 in the 2nd column.
- Column 2 is 150 pixels wide; each row is 100 pixels tall.
When I try to insert the 450x308 and 150x100 pixel images they don't quite align all the way around. It is almost as if I have not accounted for the cell spacing properly. Is my math off? I understand that it would likely be easier to amalgamate the images into 1 larger image and post it but when they want the images changed I want to simply be able to replace the 1 or 2 images without composing a whole new picture.
Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.

Re: Issues with Images within a table
Hmm, I think that's more an HTML question. I've had similar problems when designing websites in the past. My solution was to "keep trying until it looked right!"
You might have more luck on an HTML forum. CKEditor only uses the language as it was defined by others. Sorry for not being more helpful...
