OK well this is making me mad. Maby it is the fact that I am in the middle of an awsome php project or it is because I am being outsmarted by html. Anyway I have this real odd thing occuring while I am programming. It is a little hard to explain, but when I put RE or RE: in a table cell, the next cell has an offset. Here is an example: Example. Now I have tried changing all the vars (for css ect) I keep getting the same error. Here is the code I used (simplified for post but the error still occurs):
CODE <style type="text/css"> .var{ width: 600px; } </style> <table class='var'><tr><td colspan='2'><center>RE This is one cool forum.</center></td></tr> <tr><td width="100" align="left">Dylan<br> Posts: 10</td><td align="left" valign='top'><p align='left'>Me to.</p> </td></tr></table> I tried other browsers and that doent fix it. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, Sparkx |

Your example link is broken and your subdomain is inaccessible with a HTTP 403 error.
Try not to use Transitional XHTML, use CSS and Strict XHTML instead. So your table could be like this: HTML <style type="text/css"> .var{width: 600px} </style> HTML <table class='var'> <tr><td colspan='2' style="text-align:center">RE This is one cool forum.</td></tr> <tr> <td style="width:100px;text-align:left">Dylan<br />Posts: 10</td> <td style="text-align:left;vertical-align:top'><p style="text-align:left'>Me to.</p></td> </tr> </table> Ok I could have did more to improve that code but I kept the way you had it and CSS-ized the code. You should try setting table header cells and the absolute (or relative width of those cells). Based on that your table is 600px wide, I'd recommend: HTML <table class='var'> <tbody> <tr><th style="width:100px">Posted by...</th><th style="width:500px">Message</th></tr> <tr><td colspan='2' style="text-align:center">RE This is one cool forum.</td></tr> <tr> <td style="text-align:left">Dylan<br />Posts: 10</td> <td style="text-align:left;vertical-align:top'><p style="text-align:left'>Me to.</p></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> Also, the <th> contents will automatically be bolded and centered. If you set the absolute width of those cells, the rest of the columns have that width. But you only have 2 columns, the 'RE' one is a spanned cell, so I don't know exactly what you mean by the next cell having an offset because there is no cell beside it. But try my suggestions and see if it works. |
