Hey Kelly, sorry for the delay but here is all you need…
http://cssway.thebigerns.com/workbench/du_jour/kelly-table-styling/
First, the padding –
My tablekit css is being written-over by the action’s css code, as the link
for it appears after my code. If the action lets you set the padding, then
it would be best to reset it to reflect the padding amounts in my code.
Otherwise, add the !important attribute to my code as shown (which should
only be done as last resort, in desperation).
Then, the table.
Can’t you just eliminate the darn widths (and all dimensions) for the th
and td (table cell) elements altogether? This is the wrong way to think if
you ever want to design for flexibility. Without dimensions, the size of a
table cell is determined by the largest content plus content padding in the
table column. There is no need to specify width or height.
Once that change is made, your table will contract to the left – all that
means is that it is now free to be styled with CSS in a more sane manner
(inline styles for each element of a table IS insane). So find the Extended
styles for the Table element (it’s there, trust me) and add these style
rules to it:
width:94%; ( this gives a consistent width, relative to the container
)
margin:0 auto 60px; ( this centers the table in the container, and
controls the space above and below it )
border:7px solid #fff; ( border width, style and color )
and your table should look like mine!

Ernie, I still can’t seem to get this page formatted as nicely as your
example. Sorry to be so dense, but what am I doing wrong?
