HTML - Problem With Spacing In A Table
Problem fixed
Similar TutorialsHi, Thanks in advance for your help. I'm doing a web page that I would like to be viewed on 1024 resolutions without a horizontal scrollbar. It will contain images that are exactly 980px wide. The problem is that with ie7, as soon as it contains a div or a table, no matter what I do to try to remove all padding,margins,etc.. it adds 2px for each element (I guess 1px for each side). Below is some html as an example of my problem, where I've tried to remove everything I can think of... this works fine in firefox 3 <body style="width:998px;margin-top:0;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;padding:0;"> <div style="width:100%;textalign:center"><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="width:998px;border-collapse:collapse;padding:0;margin:0;border:0;"><tr style="padding:0;margin:0;border:0;"><td style="padding:0;margin:0;border:0;">sdfsdfd</tr></td></table><div style="width:100%> </body> Here is an image depicting the trouble I'm having: I want to make a table, consisting of many cells. These cells would be fixed, and *very different* in sizes. It's easy to make a no-space table when all the images are exactly the same size, but when you have images with a variety of sizes, the table doesn't fit perfectly. Basically I want to create a collage of images with overlay text on each image. My idea was that I could create a table, and each cell (td) would have a background which is the image. Then I could just type in that cell, so the text would be over the image. Then I'd do this for every one of my images, and a collage would be formed. The problem is, the table makes large white spaces wherever the image sizes don't match! How do I get rid of these spaces, or is there an entirely different code/approach I should be using? Thanks! Here is my current code: HTML Code: <html> <head> <style type="text/css"> table.nospace { padding: 0; margin: 0; border-collapse: collapse; } table.nospace tr { padding: 0; margin: 0; } table.nospace td { padding: 0; margin: 0; } </style> </head> <body> <TABLE class="nospace" width="2040px" height="2000px" cellspacing="0px" cellpadding="0px"> <TR> <td valign="top"> <table><tr> <TD WIDTH="800px" HEIGHT="800px" BACKGROUND="image.jpg" VALIGN="bottom"> <h1><FONT COLOR=#ffffff>text</FONT></h1> </TD></tr></table> </td> <td valign="top"> <table><tr> <TD WIDTH="700" HEIGHT="497" BACKGROUND="image" VALIGN="bottom"> <h1><FONT COLOR=#ffffff>Text</FONT></h1> </TD></tr></table> </td> <td valign="top"> <table><tr> <TD WIDTH="700" HEIGHT="467" BACKGROUND="image.jpg" VALIGN="bottom"> <h1><FONT COLOR=#ffffff>Text</FONT></h1> </TD></tr></table> </td> </TR> </TABLE> </body> </html> there is a problem can go through the URL below and open it in IE and any other browser like mozilla or chrome etc the mid section is not working properly it seems in IE as more spaced while in mozilla etc seems less spaced how to solve this issue. www.ims-sc.org please fix the peoblem.

I've tried and tried and can't figure this one out, probably VERY easy for others. I've got a table with images and I can't figure out how to remove the spacing betwen the table rows.

Hi guys & girls, I've got a table nested within a table row. There's a small gap I can't close at the top of the table (see image, attached). Within the table I have cell padding, but it's much more dramatic than I want at the top and bottom. Is there any way to fix these problems with HTML and inline CSS (it's going to be an HTML e-mail). This is for a client and due tomorrow, so any help would be awesome. Thank you.

Not sure what is going on here... Here is a link to the development site where you can see the problem I am having (I did not design it, but I am in charge of changing to html). http://www.vismarkgroup.com/dev/Kyrie/about.html Thanks!! Hi, I have a fine gray line around the logo. This is not the border of the table it’s the gray bgcolor. I and other HTMLers try to find the reason of this bug but failed. Can you help? You see the style.css and try to find the reason (please do not give vague answers, please look in the code and in the css) tnx Hi, I am designing my first website by teaching myself HTML using google, etc, so I am very new to designing from scratch (without using Dreamweaver, etc). My webpage is not online yet, so I can't post a link - sorry! First, I am using .png image files which look great in Google Chrome, but when I check my page in IE, the images look horrible - very pixelated. Why is that, and is there a way to fix them? My only thought would be to use a "smoothed out" image such as a .jpg, however that might make the problem even worse. Second, I am using frames and in my main frame I'm using a table with text on the left column and an image on the right column. Again, in Google Chrome it looks great with the text at the very top of the frame/table, but in Firefox, there is tons of space at the top of the table which makes the text too "tall" for the window, and a scroll bar is necessary. I hope I've explained this properly and would greatly appreciate your help - I have many more questions as well! Thanks so much, Kristen Here's a screenshot of what it's doing: I want to eliminate the spacing all together so my Flash element can sit exactly within the div. If there's a better way of positioning the Flash please tell me! I am a flash developer and our client wants this site to be built using mainly html, I am pretty good with html but not even close to an expert. I have built a site with Flash vertical and horizontal nav bars above and beside my html content. In Firefox and Safari the site looks perfect, however in IE6 & IE7 there is about a 5 pixel gap between my vertical menu bar and the rest of my content. I have tried everything I know to correct this problem... Any Ideas? They would be greatly appreciated.... Site Link http://www.sacreative.com/education I've goggled around already and implemented a few solutions, but I can't find anything that will solve it. The page I'm having problems with is he http://www.team1225.com/bio.php Towards the bottom there's a member generated bios section. Each of those green boxes should be touching like the two orange boxes are touching. That's what I'm having problems with. Firefox renders the page correctly but Internet Explorer struggles to. I've spent a couple of hours narrowing down the problem. Sorry if the html output is hard to read, its php generated. Code: <h3 class="bio" id="1bio"><p class="biot">Brian <img class="rank" src="img/prog.png"/></p></h3> <div id="biobr" class="content"> <table border='0' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0' width='100%'> <tr> <td>Pecion sdejf asdf eeeaw dfalkdfjadsa asfaf cEqasdf.</td> <td>Pecion sdejf asdf eeeaw dfalkdfjadsa asfaf cEqasdf.</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Pecion sdejf asdf eeeaw dfalkdfjadsa asfaf cEqasdf.</td> <td>Pecion sdejf asdf eeeaw dfalkdfjadsa asfaf cEqasdf.</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Pecion sdejf asdf eeeaw dfalkdfjadsa asfaf cEqasdf.</td> <td>Pecion sdejf asdf eeeaw dfalkdfjadsa asfaf cEqasdf.</td> </tr> </table> <hr align='center' style='height: 1px; overflow: hidden; line-height:1px; border-bottom: 0px; width: 80%; color: #808080;'/> <p align='center' style='color: #808080;'><i>Comment:</i></p> <p style='color: black; margin: 1em; border: 1px solid #808080;'>Pecion sdejf asdf eeeaw dfalkdfjadsa asfaf cEqasdf.</p> </div> </div> The css for div.content is: Code: div.content { margin: 0px auto; background-color: white; color: black; width: 80%; } The <div id="biobr" class="content"> part is the div field that opens and closes that holds the bio for the user. This javascript action is not related my problem. If I take out all the p, div, and hr tags in that <div id="biobr" class="content"> tag it works and all the green boxes are touching under Internet Explorer. Firefox keeps working like it always does. I've seen problems discussed like this so I think there's a fix. Thanks for any help, Alex Alright, so am finally trying to learn PHP...but I am using <?php include('header.html'); ?> For the header/footer...and it seems as if the problem is via html instead of the php...so I hope this posted in the right area... The code for the header is this (as you can see I sliced in Imageready): Code: <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" bottommargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"> <!-- ImageReady Slices (mkdc4header.psd) --> <table id="HeaderTable" width="920" height="84" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="padding-left:3px; padding-bottom:0px"> <tr> <td rowspan="4"> <img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_01.gif" width="70" height="84" alt=""></td> <td rowspan="2"> <img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_02.gif" width="135" height="43" alt=""></td> <td colspan="7"> <img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_03.gif" width="639" height="32" alt=""></td> <td rowspan="4"> <img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_04.gif" width="76" height="84" alt=""></td> </tr> <tr> <td> <a href="/index.php"><img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_05.gif" alt="" width="87" height="11" border="0"></a></td> <td> <a href="#"><img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_06.gif" alt="" width="74" height="11" border="0"></a></td> <td> <a href="http://www.moizkhan.com/blog"><img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_07.gif" alt="" width="80" height="11" border="0"></a></td> <td> <img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_08.gif" alt="" width="121" height="11" border="0"></td> <td> <a href="#"><img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_09.gif" alt="" width="87" height="11" border="0"></a></td> <td> <a href="#"><img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_10.gif" alt="" width="85" height="11" border="0"></a></td> <td> <img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_11.gif" width="105" height="11" alt=""></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="8"> <img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_12.gif" width="774" height="25" alt=""></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="8"> <img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_13.gif" width="774" height="16" alt=""></td> </tr> </table> The problem only exists in IE7 (haven't checked IE6...but I have checked in Firefox and Opera and they seem fine...so any ideas? Live Demo: http://www.moizkhan.com/mkdc4php/ hey...hope i can sort this out quickly its only a small problem.. but if you look here ... http://anastaciadreams.com/layouttest/test.html youll notice on Internet explorer theres a space in the 2 parts of the banner area, how do i remove this? I have a couple of really small spacing problems. my website is www.betdemon.com you will see from the pic that the spacing 1# on the left hand side is different to the spacing 2# on the right hand side and looks uneven. I want spacing 2# to be the same as 1# - how do i do this? Also you will see there is a gap between banners (3#) but this doesn't appear when viewing in Firefox - How can I make the gap appear? Thanks in advance ok, the website is http://brett.unixpod.com (its my personal website) i want the top banner to contact with the navigation bar. the problem is when i remove the padding the text goes out of line, but then the menu contacts with the picture. The css stylesheet is he brett.unixpod.com/css/home.css if you dont understand what i mean by anything, ill try to explain, for heaven sakes, im only 14 years old, im still afraid of the boogie monster!!! Hi Guys, I searched through older posts but I couldnt find the exact answer I was looking for. I am redesigning a few things on my website, the page I am referring to can be seen here - http://www.adamhuckle.com/test2.htm - I would like for the two images and their corresponding text to be next to each other (as they are now) but with some spacing between them. Is it possible to insert colums parhaps? I would like them to be side by side but with some additional spacing in between. Any help is welcome. Thanks in advance! I am fine-tuning an existing site and have run into one of those incredibly frustrating mysterious spacing difference problems. I've searched, tweaked, tested, validated and all but sacrificed a few voodoo chickens. The top right page title on these two pages should have the same spacing, that of the first (which all other pages on the site outside the /portfolio subfolder do). For no reason that I can find, pages in the /portfolio folder have extra space at the top. I have tried using cut and paste from working pages, moving the pages between folders, everything, and the problem persists. Both pages validate as XHTML. I'm testing primarily under FF6 but the problem also shows up in IE and Chrome. This page is fine: http://www.nitropress.com/anp_portfolio.php This page has extra spacing over the page title: http://www.nitropress.com/portfolio/anp_pf_bcfile.php What am I overlooking here? AdThanksVance. Hi, i've been trying to solve a problem for the last couple of hours and it is driving me mad, I can't find any help anywhere on the web so thought I would give this a whirl! After placing an image map on my page, I added another image below it, but there is a tiny black vertical gap (black being the bg color) between them. I have tried changing the location of the <br> tag in the script, have tried aligning and pretty much everything else obvious and I have no idea how to make them touch each other. Any help would be appreciated. The page can be seen at: http://jask.freehostingcloud.com/contactjask.html the annoying gap is between the navigation bar and the largest image. This appears to only be a problem in IE (i'm running version 8 on Vista) my code (which you can ofcourse view for your selves but i'll save you the time) is - <body vlink="#ff0000" alink="#ff0000" link="#ff0000" bgcolor="black"> <CENTER> <br> <a href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&business=KF9FFNDA7HD3N&lc=GB&item_name=Jask%20First%20Edition%20Board%20Game&amou nt=19%2e90¤cy_code=GBP&button_subtype=services&shipping=4%2e90&bn=PP%2dBuyNowBF%3abtn_buynowCC _LG%2egif%3aNonHosted" target="-blank"> <img src="http://jask.freehostingcloud.com/jaskgif.gif" width="907" border="0"></a><br> <img src="http://jask.freehostingcloud.com/gobar.JPG" height="55" border="0" useMap=#purple border=0><MAP name=purple border="0"> <area shape="rect" coords="86,7,210,43" href="http://www.jaskgames.com" alt="Jask!" title="Jask!"/> <area shape="rect" coords="257,8,381,44" href="http://jask.freehostingcloud.com/aboutjask.html" alt="All about Jask!" title="All about Jask!" /> <area shape="rect" coords="427,9,586,45" href="http://jask.freehostingcloud.com/contactjask.html" alt="Contact us about Jask!" title="Contact us about Jask!" /> <area shape="rect" coords="631,8,806,44" href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&business=KF9FFNDA7HD3N&lc=GB&item_name=Jask%20First%20Edition%20Board%20Game&amou nt=19%2e90¤cy_code=GBP&button_subtype=services&shipping=4%2e90&bn=PP%2dBuyNowBF%3abtn_buynowCC _LG%2egif%3aNonHosted" alt="Buy your own game!" title="Buy your own game!"/><br> <TABLE background="http://jask.freehostingcloud.com/mainybar.jpg" valign="top" width="907" height="445" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <TR><td width="320" valign="top"></td> <TD valign="top"><br><br> <font face="arial" color="white"><center> <form method="post" action="http://www.emailmeform.com/fid.php?formid=706822" enctype="multipart/form-data" accept-charset="UTF-8"><b><font face="arial" color=black></font> <div style="" id="mainmsg"> </div><br><font face="arial" color=black>Your Name: </font><input type="text" name="FieldData0" size="20"><br><br><font face="arial" color=black><b>Your Email Address: </font><input type="text" name="FieldData1" size="20"><br><br></font><textarea name="FieldData2" cols="44" rows="6"></textarea><br><br><input type="text" name="hida2" value="" maxlength="100" size="3" style="display : none;"><input type="submit" class="btn" value="Send email" name="Submit"> <input type="reset" class="btn" value=" Clear " name="Clear"><br></form> <b><font face="arial" color=black><b>Thankyou for getting in touch, We will respond to you<br> shortly.
