Table space
I can not figure out why my table row has a height that I did not code. Please see the top row of this table.... why does it have the extra space in the height. I do not want the additional space up top. Even with the "valign=top" it is still thre. (The red border is just so you can see what I mean). Thanks!
I apologize for the long url, but it is: http://www.promerus.net/sbna5/SBNA2/test2.htm ********************************* Charlotte Terry http://www.RooKaps.com USB Replacement Caps and Web Design Services Last edited by terrycr; Jul 27th, 2007 at 19:34. |

Re: Table space
see if adding height="0" solves it.
Then skip on over to the beginner's resources... to see how to do this by handcoding! How sneaky was that in trying to get you away from tables? HUH? |

Re: Table space
I always handcode. Changing the row height to 0 did not help.

Re: Table space
Oh sorry... well my point was not to use tables but anyway... forget that...
Is it the table row that has the wording "products by category"? I see such a weird double oval on your site... |

Another issue that you have is that you don't have a doc type but now I'm getting off topic. However, I tried to validate your code to see if it would find errors and without a doc type you can't go a step further. |

Re: Table space
Can I suggest that you get rid of the height att as the table itself shoudn't have one, also try changing the cellpadding to ="0", you also need a doc type declared for the validator to work

The problem with that particular line is that the attibutes should be delimited by quotes. If you don't do this, some really funky errors can happen:

Re: Table space
It can't be validated.. no doc type.

Re: Table space
Without a Doctype, the code is invalid. As you said, this is the first step and must be completed before you can check for other errors. I was going to suggest a Doctype, but since the website is down I can't look at the code.
As I always say: writing valid code prevents lots of errors; and fixing invalid code often makes errors disappear. |

Re: Table space
Okay, a glance at the code suggests that you should start by using an XHTML transitional doctype. Add this to the beginning of your code, before the <html> tag:
