Css on html table with 2 columns. (left column contains image, right one contains data about image)

The idea is that i want a table with 2 columns. The left column will contain an image and the right one will have 6 rows which will display data about the image.

________________________________
|               |_______________|
|               |_______________|
|     image     |_______________|
|               |_______________|
|               |_______________|
|_______________|_______________|

This example displays it as i want it index.php:

<html>
<head>
<style>
table, th, td {
    border: 1px solid black;
    border-collapse: collapse;
}
th, td {
    padding: 5px;
    text-align: left;
}
</style>
</head>

<body>

 <table style="width:50%" height = "350" align="center">
  <tr>
    <th rowspan="6" ><img src="1466570127.jpg" alt=""></img></th>
    <td>555 77 854</td>
  </tr>
  <tr><td>555 77 855</td></tr>
  <tr><td>555 77 856</td></tr>
  <tr><td>555 77 857</td></tr>
  <tr><td>555 77 858</td></tr>
  <tr><td>555 77 859</td></tr>
 </table>

</body>          
</html>

But when i tried to use this code in my project for some reason it gets messed up and looks exactly like this:

________________________________
|               |               |
|               |               |
|     image     |               |
|               |               |
|               |               |
|               |_______________|
|               |_______________|
|               |_______________|
|               |_______________|
|               |_______________|
|_______________|_______________|

I belive the problem has to be in my css file but i still can't find it. Any hint will be helpfull and thank you in advance for your time. I will give you my code in case it helps: html:

<?php 
include_once("config.php"); //include the config
session_start();
?>

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
        <title> Photography Site </title>
        <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="CSS/Mainbody.css" />
        <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="CSS/800px.css" media="screen and (max-width: 800px)" />
        <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="CSS/Menu.css" />
        <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="CSS/SideBar.css" />
    </head>

    <body>
        <div id="Container">    
        <?php include 'menu.php';?>
        <?php include 'display_photos.php';?>
          <div id="MainBody">

             <?php
                //display all photos in database
                $rows = $_SESSION['rows'];
                for ($x = 0; $x < $rows; $x++) {
                    $name = $_SESSION['array'][$x][1];
                    $username = $_SESSION['array'][$x][8];
                    $category = $_SESSION['array'][$x][9];
                    $description = $_SESSION['array'][$x][2];
                    $likes = $_SESSION['array'][$x][7];
                    $path = $_SESSION['array'][$x][3];
                    $res_path = $_SESSION['array'][$x][4];
             ?>
             <table style="width:50%" height = "350" align="center">
                <tr>
                    <th rowspan="6" ><img src="<?php echo $res_path ?>" alt=""></img></th>
                    <td>Name: <?php echo $name; ?></td>
                </tr>
                <tr><td>User: <?php echo $username; ?></td></tr>
                <tr><td>Category: <?php echo $category; ?></td></tr>
                <tr><td>Description: <?php echo $description; ?></td></tr>
                <tr><td>path: <?php echo $path; ?></td></tr>
                <tr><td>Likes: <?php echo $likes; ?></td></tr>
            </table>
             <?php } ?>

If you add vertical align top to the css, it produces the result you are looking for.

th, td {
    vertical-align: top;
}

You could use a nested table in the second column/cell:

<table style="width:50%" height = "350" align="center">
  <tr>
    <td><img src="1466570127.jpg" alt=""></img></td>
    <td>
      <table>
        <tr><td>555 77 854</td></tr>
        <tr><td>555 77 855</td></tr>
        <tr><td>555 77 856</td></tr>
        <tr><td>555 77 857</td></tr>
        <tr><td>555 77 858</td></tr>
        <tr><td>555 77 859</td></tr>
      </table>
     </td>
   </tr>
</table>

You need to set the vertical-align attribute on the cell with the image. In this case, I believe you just want to add vertical-align:bottom; to get the data about the image to display aligned with the top of the image. Example here: http://jsbin.com/rofekasoto/edit?html,css,output
