Why do my text boxes, graphic boxes and tables float around the page?
Thanks,

You are using a mixture of table-based layout (CSS button off) and absolutely-positioned DIV layout (CSS button on). Pick one, they both work, although CSS is the more current layout technique.
If you want to use tables to present tabular data (like a spreadsheet) then make sure that the table is positioned with CSS. That will wrap it in a DIV, and everything will be on an equal footing.

That sounds like very good advice, Walter. But I must be doing something wrong. I clicked on the CSS button for all items, including the table, so that it had a blue background, which I presume means tha it’s on. I repositioned the table and items inside the cells, but I still have the same problem of overlapping boxes.

If you change the CSS button, it only affects things you draw after that, not everything already on the page. Click on each element in turn, and check the Inspector to see if the Layer checkbox is checked. You’ll have to confirm this for every item on each page, unless you used Master Pages and the elements on your pages are coming from there. If you did that, then changing it on the Master page should be enough to fix it. You’ll still want to spot-check anyway, though.
