[Pro] cell padding in a table

On my website there are some tables which look fine on my iMac using Safari, Firefox, Opera or Chrome. However when I look on a windows computer (windows 7) than the cellpadding in the cells are larger and therefore the vertical length of the complete table becomes so long that it starts to overlap with other items on the page. How can I solve this problem ???

Why not create another row or rows at the end of the table into which you can put the rest of the items on the page? That way as the top part of the table grows you will know everything else will be pushed down and not overlap.

Of course there are many other options including changing to an inline design but without seeing the page this may involve considerably more work.

All the best

hmm you seem not to understand the problem. All items are in the table but in microsoft IE for some strange reason the height of each cellrow in the table is much higher than in Safari, Firefox, Opera or Chrome and consequently the height of the total table becomes much larger and overlaps other items on the page. I can not show you an example at the moment because I have no MS IE available on my imac (I discovered the problem recently on a windows pc of someone else).

and overlaps other items on the page.

If that happens then the other items are not inline with the basic construction.

They could be added into a bigger table structure that holds everything - but this is ‘old school’ and sneered at these days.

Table overlapse with items of the master page.

and overlaps other items on the page.

Then you need to change the Master layout

  • Set it up as an inline box model layout, or
  • Use the Relative Layout action

Dont know what your mean since each table is unique for its own page which all have the same masterpage underneath. That is the point of a master page i thought.
