[Tugindia] Tables clinged to the top of the page

[Prakash Mukre]

Hi,

One feature I observed all the tables are clinged to the top of the
respective pages. I tried out with a new table in new section in new
page, again the table came at top then the section heading.

The code I am using is 


\begin{table}
\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}
----
----
---
--
--
\end{tabular}
\caption{my table}
\end{center}
\end{table}


Please help me.. How to get the tables to their normal position?
Regards,
Prakash

Hi all once again,
I could create the shaded tables with specified and width and as well
I could export figures from xfig in pdf and eps format and use them in
my document.

Now I have a new problem that is controling the position of figures
and tables. I have tried aligning them and keeping the order in which
they should appear by giving  new lines ( \\ ) or scaling the figure
size, I am farely able to do that. But that may not be the right way
to do that. because the figures seem deshaped and lot of space is
wasted.
below is illustation
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
****Section 1 ***************
*******table 1 **************
*********figure 1**************
\\
\\
********* section2 *********
*******table 2 *********
***********figure 2 *************
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

But the out put is---

_----------------------------------------------------------------------------
*************table 1*****************************
***************section1**********************
*************figure 1***********************
************figure2************************
***************section2******************
***************table2*********************
----------------------------------------------------------
Please help me, how to maintain the order of the object..

Regards,

Prakash
