Tables

TreyeMe · 09-12-2006, 09:39 PM

i was wondering if there was a way to make a table with a solid background of 1 pixel?

i tried to do it but it doesnt seem to want to fit properly

i get something bigger than one pixel and a space between that cell and the the next table cell

im trying to make it something like

1px - 10 px - 1px

and ideas or is it even possible to do this without the space in it and make it a true 1 pixel..

Is there a particular reason you need to do this...because it could be achieved by other means. Otherwise its a simple CSS job.

make sure you have border="0", cellpadding="0", cellspacing="0', and style="border-collapse: collapse" all within your opening table tag.

ie.
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse" border="0">

nice gamer that worked....i just dont understand because i built a layout a while back and didnt have to put those tags in it could it just be a simple reasoning of the change in coding?

For future reference:
cell padding - space in pixels from the center of the table cell

cell spacing - space in pixels between cells in a table

border - self explanitory; in pixels

The style attribute is not required but you can keep it there. Hope this helps you.

the first link has the final banner....the other one was just temp....anyone else diggin the layout if not let me know before i get any farther...thanks in advance

**gamerman0203** · 09-15-2006, 06:28 AM

they layout looks good. You will just have to tweak your table cells to get everything to fit and line up.

makes sense now that i got some sleep i was beat last night man i use to be able to do this stuff without any problems...i just dont work on the computer like i use to anymore i guess....i kinda slipped my memerory....sorry because i know these arent really big problems...anyway thanks for the the help

**gamerman0203** · 09-15-2006, 10:00 AM

big or small, we're here to help! No problem! Glad you got it looking how you wanted!

TreyeMe · 09-15-2006, 08:27 PM

ok so i put it all together and have been playing with it for a while...sent it through a validation site to see if all my tags have openings and closing and i didnt catch anything to big everything seems fine but im having the problem i was talking about before with the table being 1 row and 3 colums with a set up of

1 px - 13 px - 1px

the line of code given help make the cells smaller but even me defining the table size it still doesnt match up to the size given any ideas on why this is happening?

thanks again...probably something quick to find but not for me im lost...if i set it at 50px instead of 13...anywhere from say 45 plus pxs will make the cell to big for what it should fit...ive tried a lot of different things anyone else got any other ideas though?

also is there a way to keep the menu from spacing like that?

**gamerman0203** · 09-18-2006, 06:54 AM

you link doesn't work and I really can't get a feel for what you need without seeing it.

TreyeMe · 09-18-2006, 07:54 AM

sorry about that..

Don't add a border, it breaks up the layout.

TreyeMe · 09-19-2006, 07:51 PM

the border was added to check something out i think ive got myself a step closer let me know what you think now and any ideas to fix the obvious errors...thanks in advance

**DJ-Zep** · 09-20-2006, 12:56 PM

You're getting close! I'll take a look at it a bit later.

TreyeMe · 09-20-2006, 06:52 PM

the link im working on right now is closest im just trying to keep the codes seperate because if u look they are both have differences in them but if i put them together i hopefully will be able to figure it out

ummm still having minor problems though

check it out

http://eveotto.com/treyeme.html

i was wondering if anyone had any ideas to give the site a lil better of a look it looks kind of plain to me....:-\

everything is set up just needs to be pushed together really and i need to figure out why the one table stretches near the credit cards but the other ones do not
