editing the .css server status file

Hello, I've been trying to edit the .css server status file via the instructions on the FAQ page. However, I am trying to do more then just change the colors, I'm able to do that easily, but what I would really like to do is change the arrangement of the information on the status page. For example, I would like to have the map image on the left, and then have the server info to the right, and then the player information below that.

I'm familar with traditional html, but am lost when it comes to css. I've tried adding html table commands using table row and data commands, but as I expected, that didn't work. Any help or advice you could give me would definitely be appreciated. Thanks.

As far as I know this would not be possible without doing 2 separate queries, because of the way the script is laid out. Then again, I am no css expert either.

You may be able to specify where each item appears by using "position: absolute" and the box offset properties (top, bottom, left, and right), although I haven't tried it with the status script yet. CSS is quite powerful.

Thanks for the response, guys, I'll try it both ways. After I posted my original message, I got to thinking, I may be able to create a table and then have it query two seperate .css files (As b0oya stated) in each cell that I want the specific information. I'll let you know how it turns out.
Thanks again.
