Menu inside a table: it does work! Here's how

After trying, go check the site (to find that it should work, & that there SHOULD be an example on the FAQ), and after reading the forum....
i got it working:
My menu in a cell of a table
This is how i done it:

Code:

<table>
  <tr><td>Blah blah blah test test blahblahblah</td></tr>
  <tr>
    <td>
        <SCRIPT>PlaceMenu("mainmenu")</SCRIPT>
        &nbsp;
    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr><td>Blah blah blah test test blahblahblah</td></tr>
</table>

Important is the   AFTER the placemenu-call

What also works is this:
BUT: then in Internet Explorer the border of the tablecell won't be showed...and in netscape it does show
(that's because internet explorer doesn't have the capability to show empty cells...there's a css-thing that can enable/disable "show empty cells" in netscape i think)

Code:

<table>
  <tr><td>Blah blah blah test test blahblahblah</td></tr>
  <tr>
     <td valign=top>               
        <SCRIPT>PlaceMenu("mainmenu")</SCRIPT>
     </td>
   </tr>
</table>

Important is the valign=top
