cellspacing

[Guest]

Can someone please tell me why when you have your table properties set with
cellspacing at "0" it does not automatically show that in the html. It does
automatically show it when you have a value of 1 or more. It does shows cell
padding automatically in the html as zero. This is of concern to me because
on a Mac, it automatically gives tables a border of 1 if it is not in the
html as 0. I do not want to have to manually put that in the code everytime a
make a table, can someone tell me how to make this happen automatically.
Thanks for any input.

All you have to do is buy all of the software companies that make browsers,
and design all of their browsers to behave the same.

Or, you could use both cellpadding and cellspacing when you design your
tables.

I presume not showing "0" means "0". If it was any other value it would
show it.

You're right - when you choose a value of 0, FrontPage *should* put

cellspacing="0"

in the code, since that's what you're specifying. I don't know why it
doesn't; must be an oversight or bug. It sounds like you'll need to add it
in manually when using FrontPage. :-(

FP should always write the tags with zero value by default when you insert a table.

And it should when you type in a "0" value too, of course, but she's saying
that it doesn't for her..

I guess it would help to know the version of FP and how the table is being created/inserted, etc.
