I am starting to think about re-writing the above web site using ASP.net.

Can anyone give me any suggestions on how I will implement the nine
different league tables using colourful graphic vertical tabs.

There are several excellent tab controls for ASP.NET:

GGIH_en-GBGB220GB220&q=asp%2enet+tab+controls


Have a look at a few and pick the one you like best.

Alternatively, it's not too difficult to roll your own, depending on your
level...

However, whatever you decide to do, please get rid of the annoying popups...

Thank you for your reply, but I was hoping for something a little more
informative.  I guess I should have made my question more explicit.

Before I re-state my request for assistance, le me say I will not be using
any pop-ups on the new site.  I intend to have a Masterpage with a Tree View
control linked to a web.sitemap in a left navigation Div and a main DIV
where the page by page content will be.

Okay back to my homepage.  I know I could have a two column table with the
first column divided into nine rows, and have a graphic in each.  In the
second single cell column I could have a Multipage control with nine
different pages.  Would that be the best way to go?

I have been told that I should not use a table for layout, what alternatives
do I have?  If I use DIVs how would alighn the graphics to they look like
tables.

Is there a good way of doing this with CSS?  If this is not the correct
Newsgroup yo anser this question what would be the right group?

That's good to hear... :-)

In fact, I would't do that at all. As far as I can see, all nine "tabs"
contain exactly the same structure - only the data changes - so I would do
away with the whole idea of a tab control and just use a single GridView,
which would be populated with data from the different leagues as required.

E.g. http://soccernet.espn.go.com/tables?league=eng.1&cc=5739

Changing the value of the dropdown changes the content in the grid, but the
structure is identical...
