    Hello folks,

    Its the newbie again.

    Are there any guidelines on where in the markup a table should be placed?
    I don't mean like under what element but in relation to where the table is
    referenced in the text so placement is appropriate in the finished
    product. Should it be at the beginning of the element the reference
    appears in? Or right next to the reference?

    Tim,

    Unless you're using the floatstyle attribute, the table will appear in the text at the place you put it (i.e., it won't be moved around), so it really depends on how you'd like the table to appear in your output (i.e., before or after the reference).
