Google Ad Sense

Google Ad Sense doesn't seem to view the text in tables.

My site has an applet that outputs "clever" replies to questions on a webpage. The replies are stored in tables. As such, Google Ad Sense only takes into account the subject of the page - that's the only thing that isn't in a table.

Here's an example of the output:

Does anyone have any ideas about how to change the output so that it doesn't appear in a table? I still want it to look good, but I want to be able to put Google Ad Sense on the archive pages. I think the "Groundhog Repellent" ads at the end of the page are hilarious.

Google Ad Sense can see text in tables. Go to TinyIRC.net and check the ads that show up on different pages. The whole design is in tables.

I see. They put the ad within the table - I had the ad outside of the table. That was probably the problem. I'll fix it at the soonest possible time.

Thank you.

It works now.
