text box won't stay

Can someone tell me how to get a text box that I'm placing inside a table to
stay put? I'm trying to align it in a table and have it stay on the right
side of the table - all I'm doing right now in fp 2003 is I've created a
table, then clicked inside the table then clicked on Text box and created a
text box within the table - however, when I view it in preview it looks
great and stays put - but when I view it in the browser, it moves over to
the left too much - almost in the middle of the table - I've looked at
formatting the text box, but can't figure out how to anchor it to where I
want it - any help appreciated
 
Why are you inserting a text box into the cell, when you can type directly into the cell, and then
use cell properties to align your text?

Especially since text boxes are VML (only viewable in IE), and use absolute positioning, so they should not be used in tables and
may not be supported by all browsers

didn't know that - and had already typed in the table :-> since I couldn't
get the 'text box' to stay - just thought it was a new feature in 2003 and
thought I'd try it .... thanks for the info though!
