<table>: how to set cellpadding, spacing and alignment?

Hello,

I need a style that defines
-table cellspacing
-table cellpading
-alignment

I tried
<table class="TBLpageframe">
<tr class="TRpageframe">
<td class="TDpageframe">sample tekst</td>
</tr>
<tr class="TRpageframe">
<td class="TDpageframe">sample tekst</td>
</tr>
</table>

with style definition
..TDpageframe {
width : 80%;
height : 80%;
BORDER-RIGHT: #000000 5px solid;
BORDER-TOP: #000000 5px solid;
BORDER-LEFT: #000000 5px solid;
BORDER-BOTTOM: #000000 5px solid;
BACKGROUND: #f1cb2c;
padding-bottom : 20;
padding-left : 100;
padding-right : 20;
padding-top : 20;
margin-bottom : 20;
margin-left : 100;
margin-right : 20;
margin-top : 50;
}

but padding and margins do not seem to work.


can anybody give me the correct syntax/fields?

Dag Bart,

A TD can have css padding, but I cannot imagine td margins:

Testing:

====================

<style>
table, td {border:dotted green 1px;}
.t1 td {padding:20px;}
.t2 td {margin:20px;}
</style>


<table class="t1">
<tr><td>qqq</td><td>qqq</td><td>qqq</td></tr>
<tr><td>qqq</td><td>qqq</td><td>qqq</td></tr>
<tr><td>qqq</td><td>qqq</td><td>qqq</td></tr>
</table>

<table class="t2">
<tr><td>qqq</td><td>qqq</td><td>qqq</td></tr>
<tr><td>qqq</td><td>qqq</td><td>qqq</td></tr>
<tr><td>qqq</td><td>qqq</td><td>qqq</td></tr>
</table>

========================

-table cellpading

padding (but remember that its CELLpadding and not TABLEpadding)

-alignment

The usual rules apply depending on if the element is a block or inline.
