php problem: include("menu.html"); pushes database data for main body down the page:?

Question

Hi

My main script is index2.php written in pure php a pagination page as follows,
problem :
include("menu.html"); which is a menu on the left hand side of my page, pushes the $row->body data down the page.

All other positining and .css works for this database data,

How can i put $row->body data by the right hand side of this menu and in the middle of the page.

I have tried using tags in php using print and escaping " with \ still no luck.

index2.php:

include("head.html");

print "

";
include("menu.html");
print "

";

include("db_config.php");

print "";
print "

";

print "

";
print $row->body;
print "... ";
print "

";
print "

";

thanks in advance
