What I really want to do is merge column headers vertically, but that doesn't appear possible in SSRS. One work around presented in the quest SSRS tablix Merging cells vertically problem was to just remove the header borders.
However, when I remove the bottom border (or change the border at all for that matter), the old one still remains.
For example, here's a test case where I've removed the bottom border and add a wide red border to the top and sides:
And here are the properties on the top text box itself:
How do I get rid of the black lines?
Found the answer. So the issue was that even though the interface functions are pretty similar to excel, cell borders are handled like individual objects with properties.
Meaning two adjacent cells don't share a common border definition between them at the boundary.
So in order to remove the bottom border on the top cell, you have to remove the bottom border on the top cell AND the top border on the middle cell.

I have a table where top and right borders are not required. So I made them border-top:none;border-right: none;. But as per my requirement, I will keep adding multiple tables one inside other. In that case, this top and right borders are keep adding up the size. Is there a way, where I can remove that space also ?
I am new to css. I am having an alignment issue in one of my html pages. I have created an invoice page, which can be viewed at: https://www.w3schools.com/code/tryit.asp?filename=G6HQYBZLNH3Y .
When you will open this page you will notice that one of DIVs is slightly more to the right and one of its edge is pointing out. i have tried multiple things but i am unable to set its alignment. I will be really thankful if anyone can solve this issue.
The Bootstrap .row class adds negative margin to the left and right, and the .col classes add padding to the left and right. You have tried to counteract this padding by adding columns to the container to wrap your rows which in turn wrap additional columns.
Try removing those wrapper columns. This will allow the previous rows with black backgrounds to extend further, the text will line up better, and then the div in question won't extend further than the previous rows.

I seem to have found an issue when producing a report with a subreport within it. In the subreport I have set the fields within the "details" heading to tabular and have set the margins & padding to 0cm. Is there a reason why this subreport is still applying vertical gaps between each row?
There's probably a small margin above/below the controls in the Detail section. Select the controls and set the Top property(this is not the same as the Top Margin and Top Padding, but actually the position) of these controls to zero(0). This will adjust the controls to the top of the Detail section. Drag the bottom of the Detail section towards the controls. This should eliminate the gap. Alternatively, after your set the Top property to zero, you can set the height of the controls to the height of the Detail section.
Also check if you have any grouping on each row with header/footer which could be the cause of the gap.
What you want to do is set the border style to transparent. Then set the Gridline Style for top, bottom, left and right to 'Solid'. Now set the Gridline Color to Black. Also set the Gridline Width Top, Bottom, Left and Right to Hairline (or thicker if you want).
If you look at the image, the redlines are the gridlines. And the black lines are the borders of the text boxes. You can see that even though I tried moving the text boxes right next to each other, the grid still adds its own gap. So the solution is to hide your borders and just use the grid for the border.
Could someone take a look at the following link of a work in progress test page for my new website - http://goo.gl/YwGiB
I'm new to CSS, and I have come across some issues that I can't figure out without some expert help. Could someone answer me three questions and possibly an explanation of how to amend it?
1) Why does my middle column by default split itself into sections, whereas my right hand column is pretty much the same but does not have the divisions? What could I do to cause that to default in the right hand column?
2) I am looking to have a box in the right hand column running parallel to the first box titled 'news' in the centre column, and then a second running parallel underneath this (with the box titled 'blog' but it will have an irregular length. What would be the best way to do this? Would this be a case for using the standard positioning commands to shift them into place or is there a better way?
3) I have stripped the padding and margins from my h1-h3 tags (specifically the h2 tag) yet there still appears to be space above the lettering. It is more pronounced when using the font MerceariaAntique which is going to be the final font, but unfortunately I am unable to amend my html file to show this right now. I am attempting to resolve it by adjusting the line-height but I am not getting anything consistent. Is there anything else I can do other than make line-height and margin adjustments?
Thanks in advance
Firstly, in your markup, you have divided your sections using the <div> element, which is completely acceptable, however you have used the same ID to identify each of them. This is what classes are for. IDs should be unique and only used once on a page, classes can be used to apply the same styles to multiple elements.
So this:
<div id="newsitem">
should be this:
<div class="newsitem">
Answers to your actual questions now!
By default, paragraph and headings have paddings and margins set. The reason your sections have spaces is down the margin on the paragraph tag. Removing this removes the space, but also brings the text together with the next heading. You can over come this by giving the <p> tags 0 margin and giving them padding, or giving padding to the section container instead.
If you want the boxes in the right hand column to line up with the ones in the middle column, you'll have to change how your layout works so that you have rows rather than columns I think. That would make it easier to line them up.
From your description, you should then have the following layout:
middle column | right column
middle column | right column
middle column
To maintain the background colour of the centre column, you could apply the background-color property to the class .centre or to be more specific .column.centre (this type of CSS selector might not work in IE6 though).
The issue with the H2 is down to line-height, each font may have a different line-height so you will have to play with the value until you get it right. If you find you're getting the top position right, but text underneath is getting closer or overlapping, give the H2 a padding-bottom value.
I see you are using h2 and h3, but I can't find an h1 that you mentioned. I'd remove "line-height" option from your css to prevent wrong/incorrect spacing.
To run div's parallel you need to have the same padding and margin on both divs (the left and right side). To do so just create a class "floatingColumn" that would float to the left and append it to both divs with all the margins and paddings.
Please look at the following page in IE9..

I have added borders on some of the tables for debugging purposes
On the left choose any region from the dropdown, the page will refresh..
On the right you will see there is now a gap below the table on the right.
I have googled for ages and searched for IE9 table bug fixes and tried them but for the life of me I cannot get that cell to size correctly. Can somebody please help me with a solution for this?

After making a selection from the list you get a long list on the left column. Since all the content is inside a bigger table (oy tables inside tables inside tables), the right column has to expand vertically.
In the right column there are two cells on on top of the other one (plus the one in the middle for spacing). The one in the top includes the table with the space you don't want, the cell in the bottom has a bunch of other smaller sections. The top cell expands vertically and ends up being taller than the content, and that's the extra space you see. If you change the vertical alignment (vAlign) of that cell (1st row, 3rd cell) to top, you'll see the space move to the top.
The reason it doesn't show up in other browsers is that they probably have different row height algorithms and make the 1st row as small as possible and leave the rest to the 2nd and 3rd. And then IE uses percentages or makes the rows proportional to the content or something.
I'm not sure what to suggest you do to fix this. If you're going to stick to tables for layout, just use one row and have a cell for each column, and keep the content of each column in the same cell instead of splitting it in rows.
