i aligned a site navigation list on the left of the page, but i want to put information in the center of the page but it gets pushed down by the navigation. im new to web design so try to keep the answers as simple as possible.
Traditionally this was solved by using tables. There are more advanced solutions using DIVs and CSS, but tables are probably still the easiest way for a beginner.
Here's a very basic example of how it might look:
<table border="0" width="100%"><tr>
<td width="20%">
Navigation stuff goes here.
</td>
<td width="80%">
All the rest of the stuff goes here.
</td>
</tr></table>
