I don't know whether amaya is a WYSIWYG kind of editor. But from your
comments I deduce that it is.
WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editors most of the time may
not render a page perfectly. As a general practice (though its
debatable) it is better to avoid WYSIWYG mode and use code view to
update the code and preview it with a real, live browser.

my 2 cents here.
Do not use tr's to reposition something. Better use CSS if you are
designing something from scratch. If you inherit an archaic design
from a prior project then that's another story.
But even if that's the case, it will be a good practice to plan a
migration path from your old layout to a CSS-based layout.

Well I have no idea since I have not used it at all. My favorite
markup editing software is "editplus". unbloated and to the point.
Although I don't want to say more on this issue. Else I will be
starting a never-ending holy war again :)
