I am having a problem where if I use a table to layout a series of pictures
and or photos, then after I have it set up in normal view I find the
contents shifting in preview view. How can I lock my tables so that my
preview and actual view match the layouts that I set up in normal view.

Don't use preview mode, it sucks monkeys. Use a browser instead, preview
has many, many bugs in it.

HTML is rendered on a client machine, not the server. So you will NEVER be
able to have absolute control over how it looks. That simply does not
happen on the web.

That said, use pixel-based tables to lay things out and you might get
closer to what you want.

Provide a URL so people can look at it, otherwise all you are going to get
is wild-guesses like this one.

Thanks for the tips It turned out that the image in the first cell had
Absolute for it's positioning instead of none. That seemed to cause the
remainder of the table to shift.
