Re: Table formatting

Is it because in these "offending" cells there is a space between the closing
div tag and the closing anchor tag?

Notice the </a> </div> in this code

<td><div align="center"><a href="whatsnew.htm" class="nav">WHAT'S NEW</a>
</div>
</td>
<td><div align="center"><a href="companyprofile.htm" class="nav">COMPANY
PROFILE</a> </div>

as opposed to
</a></div> in this code

<td><div align="center"><a href="employment.htm"
class="nav">EMPLOYMENT</a></div>
</td>
<td><div align="center"><a href="resources.htm"
class="nav">RESOURCES</a></div>
</td>
<td><div align="center"><a href="contact.htm" class="nav">CONTACT</a></div>
</td>

Can that cause that problem?

HEY....the message didnt post like I wrote it! Why in thw world did it take
out half of the code I pasted in? It took out all of the A tags.

Anyway....ignore the top post because it doesnt show what I was trying to
say.....What Im saying is that in those cells you have spaces between the A and
the DIV tags at the end. Remove the space and it should render (is that the
right word?) correctly.

Or am I way off base Nadia?

Interesting that the problem doesn't show up on Netscape! Is there an
IE-specific piece of HTML or something I'm missing?

Also, I noticed my a:hover CSS styles aren't working in Netscape. Why would
that be?

Here's a copy and paste of the table.

<link href="../PLRG2.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<table width="753" height="25" bgcolor="#CCCCCC">
<tr valign="middle"CCCCCC">
<td width="35"><div align="center"><a href="../index.htm"
class="nav">HOME</a></div> </td>
<td width="142"><div align="center"><a href="../companyprofile.htm"
class="nav">COMPANY
PROFILE</a></div> </td>
<td width="45"><div align="center"><a href="../people.htm"
class="nav">PEOPLE</a></div> </td>
<td width="85"><div align="center"><a href="../services.htm" name="link3"
class="nav" id="link1"
onMouseOver="MM_showMenu(window.mm_menu_0707143443 _0,0,19,null,'link3')"
onMouseOut="MM_startTimeout();">SERVICES</a></div> </td>
<td width="77"><div align="center"><a href="../projects.htm" name="link4"
class="nav" id="link2"
onMouseOver="MM_showMenu(window.mm_menu_0707145103 _0,0,19,null,'link4')"
onMouseOut="MM_startTimeout();">PROJECTS</a></div> </td>
<td width="109"><div align="center"><a href="../whatsnew.htm"
class="nav">WHAT'S NEW</a></div> </td>
<td width="82"><div align="center"><a href="../employment.htm"
class="nav">EMPLOYMENT</a></div> </td>
<td width="76"><div align="center"><a href="../resources.htm"
class="nav">RESOURCES</a></div> </td>
<td width="64"><div align="center"><a href="../contact.htm"
class="nav">CONTACT</a></div> </td>
</tr>
</table>

OK.

1. <link href="../PLRG2.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<table width="753" height="25" bgcolor="#CCCCCC">

Never link to a stylesheet in the body of the page.

2. MM_showMenu(window.mm_menu_0707145103_0,0,19,null, 'link4')"

NEVER use the DW/FW pop-up menus. Ugh.

Now tell me what the problem is again, please?

hey what am I, chopped liver? lol

Would a space between the closing A tag and the closing DIV tag make the text
do that? I noticed that those are the only two cells that have text display
like that and they are the only two cells that have a space between the closing
a and div tags.

Obviously I'm a newbie so please be patient with me.

1. The link for the stylesheet in that particular file is in a LIBRARY file so
there's no BODY tag in that file anyway.

2. If you're not supposed to use DW/FW pop-up menus, how do you create a drop
down menu if you don't know how to write Javascript? Is there a tutorial
somewhere or tool that can be used?

My main problem is the the navigation bar that shows 2 cells (Corporate
Profile and What's New) that sit lower than the others. This only happens when
viewed in IE (not Netscape) and there is no alignment code telling it to align
to the bottom of the cell.

Thanks for helping.

I tried taking the space from in front of the DIV tag but that didn't seem to help. Thanks for helping though.
