HTML - Tables...i Know, I Know, But It's For Email
I needed to take a little e-postcard design and slice it into tables for email. CSS has spotty support at best over email so tables had to be the option.
I'm getting a strange display problem between IE and FF. Back when I used to build sites with tables I certainly don't remember running into this. IE seems to be adding a margin or padding to my <TR> tags. Here is a screen shot: http://www.biodesign.asu.edu/newslet...tao/ieview.png Here is the actual "page" (I'm going to copy everything between the <body> tags into the email.) http://www.biodesign.asu.edu/newsletter/njtao/ The problem is those white lines that run on either side of the red bar... they don't look terrible, but they should not be there. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Similar TutorialsHello, i was wondering if it is possible to send emails with html tables in them. I have attached an image of the type of table i would like to create. thanks Hi Normally, when you have more than one table in your code, the tables will be placed one under each other. Example: <table> ... </table> <table> ... </table> When you want the tables to be placed next to each other, you need to set the align attribute. Example: <table align="left"> ... </table> <table align="left"> ... </table> BUT: When you do it like in the 2nd example (tables next to each other), in Firefox, the tables will wrap to a new line if there is no more space. In Internet Explorer, the tables will not wrap. The result is a horizontal scrollbar or "hidden tables". Why this? How can I make the tables wrap also in Internet Explorer as it does in Firefox? Is it possible with a special CSS definition or with a special DIV/SPAN tag? Thanks for your help praiser Hi, I want to put in a form to get queries from the user, like so: Name: Email: Comments: 'Send' button and that it will send the information to my email address which is gmail? Thanks Hey everyone, I'm new to these boards. Somewhat a newbie at web design, but I know basics. I'm looking to put 2 tables adjacent to each other inside another table. My problem is I can't get the tables to line up the way I want them to. I'll post a picture of how I want it to look, how it looks now and my code. How I want it to look: How it looks now: I want the tables to line up at the top and re-size according to each other so they're always aligned at the top. Code: coming in next 2 posts Hello everyone. Im making a website for my company and i need a little help. I made a table and tried to put a fixed width on it so then I could put text in it.

Sonnie can someone please tell me how i can do a table with just 1 border line - as when i do it in dreamweaver it always gives me 2 border lines - see below for my code ..thankyou <table width="311" border="1" bordercolor="#990000"> <tr> <td width="301" height="147" colspan="2"> </td> </tr> </table> I have been working on rebuilding a website using my somewhat dated knowledge of html. It works fine for my daily needs but I got to a page where I needed a table in a table. What I did looks great in Firefox, but when I check it in IE7 it turns into a nightmare. I'm stuck. Can anyone shed any light on where I turned left when I should have turned right (or something of that sort)? I tacked the page onto another site for now. It's at: http://www.cincinnatigolfcourseguide...m-ductwork.php I am trying to slightly reduce the size of the left row on my pages at http://www.mustseedaily.com/. I want to grow the middle table slightly to the left, but I just can't figure out what to change. I have been puzzling over this for some time, and I can usually figure this stuff out, but this one has me baffled. The html is attached. Thanks for any help! hey everyone, pretty simple question i am supposing, how do i stop the text in my tables from wrapping to fill the space inside the cell. The text in each cell flows over into a second line, and I end up getting writing that has huge spaces between each word, to try and fill out the line. I still want two lines, just normal sized spaces between words if that makes sense... Back in 2004, i created a site, with tables. Have no idea how I did it, someone must have helped me. I want to update that site and make the center section wider than the sides (the sides can be of equial width). The URL is http://www.ilovejesus.com/lot/awesomebks/news.shtml Can someonehelp me with this? I need the code from the beginning of the table to the end of that column, that is Column 1, (left side) back to top for Column 2 (center), back to top for Column 3 (right side) and to the bottom of that column. I would like the center column to be at least 2x as wide as the side columns. Tell me how to end the tables and begin the text which will be straight across page. Thanks. EDIT: Title is supposed to be "Tables or CSS" I know, I know - HTML Tables are the spawn of Satan - however, I have a tabbed content box made from html/css/js - when you click on a tab, the content (underneath) changes accordingly. My questions is, I will be having a static list, with the corresponding answers (to the data in the list) targetting from an Excel Driven database - don't ask me why, just what my boss wants... Here is what I have so far: Quote: <TABLE CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="2"> <TR><TD>Sponsor ID:</TD><TD>FILLER TEXT</TD></TR> <TR><TD>Client Number:</TD><TD>FILLER TEXT</TD></TR> <TR><TD>Sponsor Name:</TD><TD>FILLER TEXT</TD></TR> <TR><TD>Brand Name:</TD><TD>FILLER TEXT</TD></TR> <TR><TD>Status:</TD><TD>FILLER TEXT</TD></TR> <TR><TD>Support Tier:</TD><TD>FILLER TEXT</TD></TR> <TR><TD>Sponsor Phone:</TD><TD>FILLER TEXT</TD></TR> <TR><TD>Support Phone Number:</TD><TD>FILLER TEXT</TD></TR> <TR><TD>Support Email Address:</TD><TD>FILLER TEXT</TD></TR> <TR><TD>Parent Name:</TD><TD>FILLER TEXT</TD></TR> <TR><TD>Misdirect Scripting:</TD><TD>FILLER TEXT</TD></TR> </TABLE> He wants the content separated in a "ruled" look, like Excel - however, I didn't know if it would be cool to just use HTML - or if there is another way to do this - It's not going out on the internet (it's going on our Intranet via SharePoint) so I'm not worried about conjunctions and standards (not using HTML tables), etc. Just need to know if there is another way to separate the info with a solid black line - horizontal/vertical between the cells - that looks better than an HTML table border. Thanks! Ok I'm trying to get a page to look like this I did it with images, so theres no text. So there's 4 images basically I tried to do a table like this Quote: <table border="0"> <tr> <td><a href="http://milkshakekicks.com/kicks/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1&products_id=10&zenid=c1961df3cad20f9854cb47801f 85ee4d"><img src="http://milkshakekicks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/picture-1.png" alt="" /></a></td> <td><img src="http://milkshakekicks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/picture-2.png" alt="" />, <img src="http://milkshakekicks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/picture-3.png" alt="" />, <a href="http://milkshakekicks.com/kicks/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1&products_id=10 amp;zenid=c1961df3cad20f9854cb47801f85ee4d"><img style="border: 1px solid grey;" src="http://milkshakekicks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/battle_homepage.png" alt="" width="209" height="179" /></a></td> </tr> </table> but got this Should I not do this with tables? Is there anyway that in Internet Explorer I can stop it auto-resizing? I think that is the problem I'm having, I'm not sure though. The problem is this: http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e8...66/problem.png The cell on IE adds onto the top and bottom of the image for seemingly no reason. The image on the broken cell is a link as well. I tried making the image the background of the cell and having a transparent image as the link over the top but it brings up the same problems. There's no border around the image and no cell padding. The code used for that specific cell is: Code: <TD height="74" style="background-repeat:no-repeat;" COLSPAN=2><a href="MYLINK" target="_blank"><img src="http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e85/pxi666/seashell/seashell_layout_09.png" width="411" height="74" border="0"></a></TD> Any ideas on what could be causing this? Thanks a lot in advance, Ollie I have a table I created and I want to have a page that allows you to fill in text boxes to answer questions and then when submitted it will put the answers in the correct cell of the table. I have no idea how to do this and am limited in my html skill. If some one could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it greatly. http://www.roleplayingmaps.net/sheet.htm This is the table I have already created. Thanks for taking the time to read. Hey guys, Im trying to to add images to the left and right of an area on my site at: www.darkregions.com I attached a picture to this post with red circles of where I want the images to be. The problem is, I havn't done any HTML in a long time and I tried fooling around with the code to try to get the images in those locations but couldn't do it. Could someone please view the source of the main page and tell me what I need to add/change to get images in those two locations? Thanks a bunch to anyone who helps! I'm starting a forum here, and I really want to get it up soon. But I can't because I'm having trouble w/ the header. On the header there's supposed to be text on top of it, but it's not. It's on the side. Can anyone help? Thank you. Here's the code:
Code: <a name="top"></a> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" width="696px" align="center"> <tr> <td bgcolor="#ddeef7"> <table border="0" cellspacing="1px" cellpadding="6" width="100%"> <tr> <td width="74%" bgcolor="#ffffff"> <table border="0" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td valign="top" rowspan="2"><a href="index.php"><img src="./images/oxygen/logo.png" alt="Ne-YoFan.com Online Community" border="0" /></a></td></tr> <tr> <td align="right" valign="top"><font class="smalltxt">Last active: 14-6-2008 at 08:10 PM<br /></font></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right" valign="bottom"><font class="smalltxt">Logged in as <a href="member.php?action=viewpro&member=Erika">Erika</a><br />[<a href="misc.php?action=logout">Logout</a> - <a href="u2u.php" onclick="Popup(this.href, 'Window', 700, 450); return false;">U2U</a> - <a href="memcp.php">User Control Panel</a> - <a href="cp.php">Administration Panel</a>]</font></td> </tr> </table> i dont know if this belongs in here, but i was wondering if you could please tell me the code for the rounded square outlines around the text like this http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm...endid=35605078 any help will be appreciated |
