Hi

I have been working on a  website (done by someone else, handed down 2
me!).
a part of the page layout in the site is fairly complex :

i have logically divided it as :

1    horiz. banner
2    horiz. banner
3    column column column
4    horiz. banner
5    column column
6    spanned column

and the whole thing has been made as 1 big table with embedded tables &
divs...
wouldnt it be more efficient to make each of the 6 sections individual
tables...,
in terms of display by the browser would it not display faster since each
section would have
been split into a single table (so each table gets displayed as it is
downloaded...?) ?
(and there is quite a bit of embedded asp so it would make it easier to
maintain)
am i thinking correctly or does the browser show page only after
downloading the whole page ?

bye
ashok
