Is this page built in NetObjectsFusion?

<aside>HEY MARTHA, COME LOOK AT THIS!</aside>

Man, is that an ugly layout method! Tables nested 7 deep....

Change this -

<TABLE width=773 height=722 border=0 align="center"

cellPadding=0 cellSpacing=0 style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" nof="LayoutRegion4">

to this -

<TABLE width=773 height=722 border=0 align="center"

cellPadding=0 cellSpacing=0 style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff; width:773px; margin:0 auto;" nof="LayoutRegion4">

and see if that helps.

Yeah - stop using NOF!

Other than that, the next step would be to learn how to not rely on tables for layout, and move to CSS for layout and HTML for content only.

DW only does what you tell it. It does not change things without being directed to do so. Operators do such things, however....

Looked like it was a different table to me and I'm not sure that margin: 0 auto; would work on its own?

It will only if the element has already been assigned a width. In this case, the table was given an explicit width.
