a sample row might contain
<tr>
<td width="25%">do stuff</td>
<td width="10%">do stuff</td>
<td width="40%">do stuff</td>
<td width="5%">do stuff</td>
<td width="20%">do stuff</td>
</tr>
the table will then align all the columns to your preset widths. The total of all the “widths” = 100%
sorry, im having no luck here. i understand what its doing, but i dont understand how to implement it to my bit of code. i gave it a shot but it didnt budge.
post your table code so we can see what you are doing, it will help us help you
<h3><?php echo $title?></h3>
<?php
if(!$allpilots)
{
echo ‘There are no pilots!’;
return;
}
?>
<table id=“tabledlist” class=“tablesorter”>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Pilot ID</th>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Rank</th>
<th>Flights</th>
<th>Hours</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<?php
foreach($allpilots as $pilot)
{
/*
To include a custom field, use the following example:
<td width=“10%”>
<?php echo PilotData::GetFieldValue($pilot->pilotid, ‘VATSIM ID’); ?>
</td>
For instance, if you added a field called “IVAO Callsign”:
echo PilotData::GetFieldValue($pilot->pilotid, ‘IVAO Callsign’);
*/
?>
<tr>
<td width=“10%”><a href=“<?php echo SITE_URL?>/index.php/profile/view/<?php echo $pilot->pilotid?>”>
<?php echo PilotData::GetPilotCode($pilot->code, $pilot->pilotid)?></a>
</td>
<td width=“10%”>
<img src=“<?php echo Countries::getCountryImage($pilot->location);?>”
alt=“<?php echo Countries::getCountryName($pilot->location);?>” />
<?php echo $pilot->firstname.’ '.$pilot->lastname?>
</td>
<td width=“10%”><img src=“<?php echo $pilot->rankimage?>” alt=“<?php echo $pilot->rank;?>” /></td>
<td width=“10%”><?php echo $pilot->totalflights?></td>
<td width=“10%”><?php echo Util::AddTime($pilot->totalhours, $pilot->transferhours); ?></td>
<?php
}
?>

can you post or pm me the link to your page - it looks ok from here other than the widths only add up to 50%, which should still make the columns align
Instead of 10%, I would take the width ofyour page in pixels, divide by the number of columns, and use that, if you’re using fixed width. But I might just be confusing you more
