2. More About Borders
Tables come with their own borders. If you don't specify the thickness of the borders, Internet Explorer will go with the default: 0 . Netscape will go with the default too, but it will not appear the way it does in Internet Explorer
If you don't specify the borders, your table will be surrounded by a transparent border. |
Here's the solution:
Example:
========
Old Code:
<TABLE>
<TR>
<TD BGCOLOR="#000000"></TD>
<TD BGCOLOR="#000000"></TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
New Code:
<TABLE BORDER=0>
<TR>
<TD BGCOLOR="#000000"></TD>
<TD BGCOLOR="#000000"></TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
========
The old code will make the black columns look spaced out in Netscape, as Netscape creates a transparent border around your table. But if you forcefully tell Netscape that you want the border to be "0", Netscape will have no choice but to remove that transparent border.
That's it! Hope this helps with your tables and thank you for reading!
