Default Lists with CSS - 02-27-2006 , 12:57 PM






Posted this over in alt.html.css (no response) and
alt.internet.search-engines (those fine folks suggested I post it here) and
am wondering if someone here might be able to help.

I have Googled and come close (and browsed the recent topics here) but not
there yet, please see below.

Could someone please tell me how to make this
http://www.anrodscreen.com/plain-wea...h-proposed.php tabled list
into a list with CSS?

I have come part way, just can't get over the hump...
This close http://www.anrodscreen.com/completely%20css.php (the stuff in
white...)


Thank you,

Why would you want to do that? It sure looks like tabular data to me,
thus suited for the table used.

Recommendations:
use <th> for the heading row
drop all the 'center' and <font..> stuff from the data rows,
and use CSS for that

The bold is hard to read. No need to assign a font size then.

Use <table class="weave">

..weave td {
text-align: center;
}

Thank you bts, I will give it a go... Just thought I could do it with CSS
and not have to worry about the table markup

You can. Set default styles for ".weave td" (font, centering, color,
margin, ...) and use explicit classes for special cases.
Oh! You mean not use a table at all? But it's tabular data...

Correct, was thinking no table at all. Sorry I didn't mention that.
