Tables in Frontpage don't show properly in Safari

Jay Earley

My website done in Frontpage uses many tables. I have gotten feedback from
Safari users that they don't display properly, and I have confirmed this by
downloading the Windows version of Safari. Does anyone have any suggestions
about how to handle this?

After taking a quick glance:
You set the height of a table to: height="1"
A table automatically adjusts it's height to fit the content,
so I would recommend removing that.

Also, the page has no "doctype declaration" which forces a browser to render the page in quirks mode.

Place the following at the very top of the page in code view, above the <html> tag:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">


See if it helps.

Steve,
This is the code that Frontpage produced. I am not an HTML programmer.
