Not quite a million dollar homepage idea, but help needed

[larky_starz]

While basing my idea on the million dollar homepage, I will not be selling space to advertisers, and I do not want individual pixels.

What I'd like is to have a 10x10 grid on my page, with each section being 10x5 size. Is it best to do this as a table?

As with the million dollar homepage, I will selling off the blocks, and would like people to be able to click on the square they want, and go through to the next page.

Please tell me the best way to do this.

I think a table would be the easiest way to do it. You could do something like this in php:

echo "<table>";
for ($x=1; $x<10; $x++){
 echo "<tr>";
 for ($y=1; $y<10; $y++){
  echo "<td>";
  if(spot x,y is taken){
   echo their image & link
  } else {
   echo buy link
  }
  echo "</td>";
 }
 echo "</tr>";
}
echo "</table>";

I'm not very good at php. Do you think a simple html table would work? If so, I'm not sure how to specify the cell size

<style>
td.cell {
width: 10px;
height: 5px;
}
</style>

then use <td class="cell"> for your table cells.

might I ask exactly what you plan on doing with this 10x5 block? It seems like another pixel idea...

It sort of is, but it's not to sell advertising space or anything. It's a couple of different ideas that I have come up with. It's not 100% necessary to do it this way, I just like the layout, thats all
