Can't seem to be able to get IE9 to center the table (id="needToCenter") within the div. It works fine in FF.
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML>
<BODY>
<FORM id=viewDevicesForm method=post name=viewDevicesForm action=/viewDevices.jsf>
<DIV style="border: 1px grey solid; MARGIN-TOP: 20px; WIDTH: 100%;">
<TABLE id="needToCenter" style="MARGIN: auto" border=0 cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0>
<TBODY>
<TR>
<TD><A style="HEIGHT: 22px; FONT-WEIGHT: 900" id=viewDevicesForm:_idJsp146 href="http://localhost:9082/viewDevices.jsf?Flow=view#" name=viewDevicesForm:_idJsp146>MASS EDIT</A>
</TD>
</TR>
</TBODY>
</TABLE>
</DIV>
</FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>
Instead of using the html4 doctype, try the html5 doctype. That will force ie9 to use standards rendering and may fix issues.
<!DOCTYPE html>
Oh, and as an aside, you should be using CSS.
You could wrap your table with a <center> tag. It's deprecated on HTML 4.01 and not supported on HTML 5. But since you're using HTML 4.0 I think it'll work.
Just add text-align:center as this:
<DIV style="text-align:center;border: 1px grey solid; MARGIN-TOP: 20px; WIDTH: 100%;">
margin: auto only works for explicitly-sized elements. Add a width to your table if you want it to center itself inside it's container.
Example: http://jsfiddle.net/mqqu9/
<div style="border: 1px grey solid; margin-top: 20px; width: 100%;">
<table id="needToCenter" style="margin: 2em auto; width: 80%; border: solid 1px #c00;">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
<a style="height: 22px; font-weight: 900" id="viewDevicesForm:_idJsp146" href="http://localhost:9082/viewDevices.jsf?Flow=view#" name="viewDevicesForm:_idJsp146">MASS EDIT</a>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
I added a border and top & bottom margin to the table to make it obvious how the table renders.

I made a HTML email layout using table, the design is working fine in my machine but when I put the code to test in putsmail the footer moves to the left when I view the mail in the dekstop.
It should come like this:
Its coming like this:
My HTML code:
<!--Footer-->
<table class="footer">
<tr>
<td style="padding: 50px;background-color: #f7f7f7">
<table width="100%">
<p style="text-align: center; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5;">

</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
My CSS code:
.footer{
align-content: center;
width: max-content;
position: relative;
}
Thank You in advance
It’s safer to use inline CSS for email templates, I also don’t think any email clients supports the align-content property or even max-content on width. Maybe try it like this:
<table width="100%">
<tr width="100%">
<td style="padding: 50px;background-color:#f7f7f7">
<div style="margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;">
<p style="text-align: center; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5;">

</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
Note that I'm using width inline there, and added a div in the inner td to align to the center.
Change the width: max-content; to width: 100%; and it should work.
You can read more about how "max-content" works here
Use width: 100% for the table.
I am a newbie in HTML and currently working on my University project work and I really need some help. I am using a background box for the "blog-like" website which needs to align title and short text on the left and contents with hyperlinks on the right.
So far I have used a cell to align them but to say the least, it looks very ugly and moreover affects spacing. No matter what I tried I can't change the contents on both sides without a response from another. Is it possible to arrange content somehow another way instead of using a single cell for an entire box and dividing percentage for each side? I have uploaded a picture of the website below

In this situations it is best to use flex and max width. It is very good to responsive design so.
.background {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
}
div.transbox {
margin: 30px;
background-color: #ffffff;
border: 1px solid black;
opacity: 0.6;
filter: alpha(opacity=60);
width: 100%;
max-width: 1000px;
}
Change your browser size, It work good for all sizes. And the best part is if the screen has width < 1000px the table fills all of the screen.
just change this tag:
<table style="padding:0 5% " width = "90%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
This is my page source:
<html style="height: 100%">
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" media="screen" href="/public/stylesheets/main.css">
<title></title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
</head>
<body style="height: 100%; margin: 0px">
<table>
<tr>
<th>
<img src="/public/images/logo.jpg" alt="logo" id="logo" />
</th>
</tr>
</table>
<iframe id="testFrame" src="/public/site_down.gif" frameborder="0" style="overflow:hidden;height:100%;width:100%" height="100" width="100">
</body>
</html>
The code below shows the logo in center of page in Firefox, but left aligned in IE. How do i make it browser independant so that it always shows in center?
<table>
<tr>
<th>
<img src="/public/images/logo.jpg" alt="logo" id="logo" />
</th>
</tr>
</table>
The iframe code is left aligned in Firefox and IE, with IE showing V scroll bar, Firefox does not. I want to make iframe flexible so that the client can drop any image/html code so that it will always be centered without any scroll bars showing up.
My css
table
{
border-width: 0 0 1px 1px;
border-spacing: 0;
border-collapse: collapse;
margin:auto;
vertical-align:middle;
}
td
{
margin: 0;
padding: 4px;
border-width: 1px 1px 0 0;
}
Centered pages generally work like this:
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
...your side contents...
</div>
</body>
CSS:
#wrapper {
width:960px;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
}
The same technique can be used to center anything, including your image and your Iframe. Give it a class or ID and apply the same CSS pattern.
I have created nested tables with the following markup, where the first table contains an example of a typical row:
<table class="outer">
<tr>
<td>
<table class="column" id="left_column">
<tr>
<td>
<table class="cell" id="t1">
<tr>
<td>
<asp:Literal runat="server" ID="t1r2c0" />
</td>
<td>
<asp:Literal runat="server" ID="t1r2c1" />
</td>
<td class="image">
<span id="s1" runat="server">
<asp:PlaceHolder ID="p1" runat="server">
</asp:PlaceHolder>
</span>
</td>
<td>
<asp:Literal runat="server" ID="t1r2c3" />
</td>
<td class="gray">
<asp:Literal runat="server" ID="t1r2c4" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<table class="cell" id="t2">
<!-- ... -->
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
<td>
<table class="column" id="rightColumn">
<!-- ... -->
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
And here is the relevant CSS:
#rightColumn table, #leftColumn table {
width: 100%;
}
.cell {
border-collapse: collapse;
border: 2px solid black;
margin: 5px;
}
.cell td {
border-collapse: collapse;
border: 2px solid black;
text-align: center;
vertical-align: middle;
}
.image {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
width: 75px;
}
In Firefox this renders like this:
but in IE6 it renders like this:
Two things are going wrong in IE:
The right hand border is missing from every table.
The 2nd and 3rd tables in the right hand column have arbitrary sizes for the last column despite the fact that these cells are class "image" and should have a fixed width of 75px.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
EDIT: #rightColumn table, #leftColumn table { width: 100%; background: Red }
Check whether IE is rendering your page is in quirks mode or not. Quirks mode often affects element widths in particular, so I would suggest that this is a very strong candidate for the cause of your problem.
You should make sure the page is in standards mode in order to render correctly.
This is easily done by making sure the page has a valid doctype at the top of the page.
If you don't have a doctype, you can add any valid doctype to get it working in standards mode, but if you're not sure which one to use, just use the following:
<!DOCTYPE html>
Hope that helps.
So I have this certain table. I know I'm not supposed to use table for layout, but in this case I'm forced to.
I need to style a specific TD's cell-spacing (the TD with the class .ritey). I know I have to target the TABLE to set its cell-spacing, but I don't want other TDs got affected. I only need to style this single TD.
Is there any way to do this?
Here is a quick rough sketch with MS Paint, I hope this explains what I need:
In the overall layout there will be multiple rows (multiple TR). In this question I only show one row. I need all columns (all TDs) to remain unchanged, except for .ritey. I want .ritey to have 10px margin around it (margin, not padding). I hope this explains better!
.
And here is what I got in my HTML. I tried td.ritey { border-spacing:10px; } but it does not seem to work.
<table width='100%' border='0' cellspacing='1' cellpadding='3' class='postable'>
<tr>
<td valign='middle' class='row4 uname' colspan='2'>
<div class='name'>
<a href='#'>Guest</a>
</div>
</td>
</tr><tr>
<td width='100%' valign='top' class='ritey'>
<div class='postcolor'>
Post content
</div>
</td><td valign='top' class='lefty'>
<div class='postdetails'>
Details
</div>
</td>
</tr></table>
Any help is really appreciated.

In CSS, you would use padding for cellpadding and border-spacing for cellspacing. Here's the working code:
EDIT
I revised the CSS according to the image you provided. I added extra styling for the postcolor class. See the updated CSS and Fiddle. I also updated the screenshot.
If you want the borders to collapse, change border-collapse to collapse and remove the border-spacing property.
<style type="text/css">
table.postable {
border-collapse: separate !important;
border-spacing: 1px;
}
table.postable td {
border:1px solid black;
padding: 5px;
}
td.ritey {
border: 0px !important;
padding: 10px 5px 10px 5px !important;
}
td.lefty {
padding: 10px 5px 10px 5px !important;
}
div.postcolor {
margin: 3px;
padding: 10px;
border: 1px solid black;
}
</style>
<table width='100%' class='postable'>
<tr>
<td colspan='2'>
<div class='name'>
<a href='#'>Guest</a>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width='100%' valign='top' class='ritey'>
<div class='postcolor'>
Post content
