Table Column Won't Stay Positioned

I'm brand new to forums and discussions, so if there's any advice or info on what to ask, mention, and where to post I'd be very grateful.  I'm trying to build a website with Dreamweaver CS5 using a 3 column table.  I adjusted the center column to make the overflow scrollable (for the sake of appearance, I wanted to make sure that my nav bar in the left column wasn't continually being disfigured by the pages resizing based on how much content the two columns have).  After I adjusted the overflow property, the right column keeps floating way off to the right every time I activate live view mode and when I open it in a browser.  I've tried the properties menu for the fixed, static, relative, etc. positioning, and even tried manually coding the coordinates I want the column to be locked at.  All three columns are set to fixed size and positions, but I can't make the right column stay put or even keep it inside of the actual table.  It actually floats in an are almost at the edge of the page border well past where the table should end (the table does not appear to resize but I'm not positive).  I've checked the obvious things like cell padding and spacing, so far nothing explains what's going on.  Any advice?

OK, for starters, you are posting to the wrong forum. This is the Application Dev forum. Please post layout questions to the Dreamweaver forum.
