I have a table with 2 <tr> and 2 <td>:
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<table>
<!-- other content -->
</table>
</td>
<td/>
</tr>
<tr>
<td/><td/>
</tr>
</table>
Where the ***** is I need to insert pretty much the same table (which does not contain another table).
but when I debug it the table is left aligned.
Live Example
I want that the table in the upper left box is right aligned (for knowledge: and center aligned).
For example:
The table within is 32px width but the containing td is 64px width.
How can I align the table to the right?
A table is a block-element; text-align and align only works on inline-elements.
So for a block-element you have to use margin:
CSS:
.centered{
margin: 0 auto;
}
.rightaligned{
margin-right: 0;
margin-left: auto;
}
.leftaligned{
margin-left: 0;
margin-right: auto;
}
HTML:
<td>
<table class="leftaligned">
<!-- Other Content -->
</table>
<table class="centered">
<!-- Other Content -->
</table>
<table class="rightaligned">
<!-- Other Content -->
</table>
</td>
This will work in almost every browser, even Internet Explorer 7.
Only the following comes to mind:
<table>
<tr>
<td style="text-align: right"></td>
<td/>
</tr>
<tr>
<td/><td/>
</tr>
</table>
Or another css approach:
table table {
float: right;
}
or inline with float:
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<table style="float: right;">.....</table>
</td>
<td/>
</tr>
<tr>
<td/><td/>
</tr>
</table>
In case the td only contains table and no other text or element then below code should also work, only thing it will right align everything in the td and won't work in html5:
<table>
<tr>
<td align="right">*</td>
<td/>
</tr>
<tr>
<td/><td/>
</tr>
</table>

I have an image on the upper left of the screen but want to position some text on the evenly opposite side (upper right). But this code positions the subsequent td elements only slightly to the right and a bit lower. Do I need to add an align to the <td> elements?
<table>
<tr>
<td><img src="some_img" style='width:50%; height:50%;' />
<td style="vertical-align:bottom;">t1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td>t2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td>t3</td>
</tr>
</table>
One closing td is missing, other than that you can use the text-align css property to align the items inside the cell.
If I understand correctly, you may want something like this:
.cell{
width: 50vw;
background: #ccc;
text-align: right;
}
.image{
width:50%;
height:50%;
text-align: left;
}
<table>
<tr>
<td class="cell image"><img src="some_img"/></td>
<td class="cell">t1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="cell"></td>
<td class="cell">t2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="cell"></td>
<td class="cell">t3</td>
</tr>
</table>
I'm trying to adapt this hr so that it can appear on mobile on one line. This code is fine for a desktop view but for a mobile device it creates a jump to the line that breaks the hr.
div {
text-align: center;
}
hr {
display: inline-block;
width: 30%;
}
<div class="mcnTextContent">
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td> </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<div style="center">
<hr>TOGETHER
<hr>
</div>
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td> </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
Your estimate of 20px for the width of TOGETHER was way out.
Below I have used 8em but you may want to adjust that a little one way or the other.
div { text-align: center; }
hr { display: inline-block; width: calc((100% - 8em)/2); }
<div class="mcnTextContent">
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td> </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<div style="center">
<hr>TOGETHER
<hr>
</div>
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td> </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
Option One:
Use a single, full-width (or maybe something like 90%?) <HR> but move TOGETHER up so that it sits on top.
Option Two:
Use calc in your CSS so that the width of each <HR> is (width of parent - width of TOGETHER) / 2
(Guessing at 30% width is just too fragile in this case).
I got a table with a couple <td>:
<table>
<tr>
<td>First</td>
<td>Second</td>
<td style="padding:20px;">
<div>
Third
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
What I want to do is to place the "Third" <td> (with the div) to the right side of the table and the "First" and "Second" <td> should stay left.
Style with float:right; didn't work for me...
You need to make your table's width 100%, then control the widths of your first 2 columns, and finally right-align your third column.
http://jsfiddle.net/25Mqa/1/
<table>
<tr>
<td class="first">First</td>
<td class="second">Second</td>
<td class="third">Third</td>
</tr>
</table>
CSS:
table { width:100%; }
.first, .second { width:50px; }
.third { text-align:right; }
The problem is that the width of a <table> is determined by its content, by default. If you want the <table> to span 100% width (of its containing block) like block-level elements do, you can either add table-layout: fixed; and then specify your width - or just give it a width, depending on what you're after, e.g.
table {
width: 100%;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/QEaAd/2/
try add style="text-align:right;"
<table>
<tr>
<td>First</td>
<td>Second</td>
<td style="padding:20px; text-align:right;">
<div>
Third
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
Only if you have 2 divs one near other:
<div id="fr">div1</div>
<div id="fr">div2</div>
you can float them right:
<style>
#fr{float:right;}
</style>
<table style="width: 100%;">
<tr>
<td>First</td>
<td>Second</td>
<td style="padding:20px; display: block; float: right;">
<div>
Third
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

I believe this does what you want, however from what I understand, floating table elements will cause problems in versions of Internet Explorer <8
I dont know what you are trying to do with tables and divs? But I normally use this for emailers.
I use the align attribute for td's. This helps a lot in making sure your layout looks the way you want. And it works in all browsers :)
FIDDLE
HTML:
<table width="100%">
<tr>
<td>First</td>
<td>Second</td>
<td style="padding:20px;" align="right">
<div>
Third
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
In Bootstrap 5.2 you can add .text-start and .text-end to your text class to align elements inside a table.
I have the following code :
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<!-- Black Box -->
</td>
<td>
<!-- Search Box -->
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td rowspan='2'>
<table>
<tr><td class='thead'>Statut</td></tr>
<tr><td><!-- THE TD TO RESIZE --></td></tr>
</table>
</td>
<td>
<table>
<tr><td class='thead'>Annonce</td></tr>
<tr><td><!-- Don't Care --></td></tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<table>
<tr><td class='thead'>Message</td></tr>
<tr><td><!-- Don't Care --></td></tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
It renders like this: http://imageshack.us/a/img689/3140/tbi4.png
But I would like the orange cell under "Statut" to fill the whole height of the containing TD. I tried to apply a height property to the table, the TR and the TD, but nothing happens, be it in HTML with height=... or in CSS with style='height: ...
Here's the render I'd like to have: http://imageshack.us/a/img560/3809/dy4w.png
One could argue that tables are not the best choice here, as they should only be used for tabular data, not for layout.
However, if you decide to go with tables, you should not nest them, but work with rowspan to achieve the deisred result. The HTML would look like this:
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<!-- Black Box -->noir</td>
<td>
<!-- Search Box -->cherche</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class='titre'>Statut</td>
<td class='titre'>Annonce</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td rowspan='3'>lorem ipsum statut</td>
<td>lorem ipsum annonce</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class='titre'>Message</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>lorem ipsum message</td>
</tr>
</table>
This way you do not need to bother with heights in css (which can be a pain).
I set up a small example to demonstrate: http://jsfiddle.net/qJQdj/
Try height:100%; to make it takes the total height.
Employing min-height will do the trick for you here if you are content aware of the table.
CSS
td[rowspan="2"] > table{
min-height:80px;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/LWxK4/
changed code : convert your code to:
<table>
<tr >
<td class='thead' rowspan='2'>Statut</td>
<td class='thead'>Message</td>
</tr>
<tr><td class='thead'>Message</td></tr>
</table>
it will give you what u want for sure
EDIT: this is the concept of using rowspan.now you should use it to build your own webpage.there are few more cells as well in your code.you can do that using nested tables.my answer shows how to use rowspan properly
If you really wanted nested tables...
You can force a nested table/table-cell to have a minimum height as follows:
Add a class .statut-panel to your inner table:
<table class="wrap">
<tr>
<td>Black Box</td>
<td>Search Box</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td rowspan='2'>
<table class="statut-panel">
<tr>
<td class='thead'>Statut</td>
</tr>
<tr class="full-size">
<td>THE TD TO RESIZE...</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
<td>
<table class="annonce-panel">
<tr>
<td class='thead'>Annonce</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Don't Care</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<table>
<tr>
<td class='thead'>Message</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Don't Care</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
and apply the following CSS:
table td {
background-color: lightgray;
vertical-align: top;
}
table.statut-panel {
border: 1px solid blue;
height: 200px;
}
table.statut-panel .full-size td {
border: 1px dotted blue;
height: 100%;
}
Give the inner table .status-panel a fixed height, say 200px. CSS will treat this as a minimum height so you won't get into any overflow issues as the table content expands.
For the table cell that you want to expand, table.statut-panel .full-size td, simply set the height to 100%, and it will expand in height to at least 200px (or whatever is a good minimum height).

How do I get these tables to slide under each other without the extra space?
<table border="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th>And another</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Some stuff in the table. </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Some stuff in the table. </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Some stuff in the table. </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<table border="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th>And another</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Some stuff in the table. </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Some stuff in the table. </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<table border="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th>And another</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Some stuff in the table. </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Some stuff in the table. </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Some stuff in the table. </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<table border="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th>And another</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Some stuff in the table. </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Some stuff in the table. </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Some stuff in the table. </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
CSS
/* ---------------[ Tables ]--------------- */
table {

Thanks
You could try adding clear: left to your tables:
table {
float: left;
clear: left;
width: 285px;
}
Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/ambiguous/AsUSj/
You might need to play with the panel sizes in the fiddle to convince yourself that it works.
either set width to 100% on tables or put a width on their parent element with width 285px
Unfortunately, pure floating wont do what you want it to in this case. The simplest fix is non-semantic: Wrap the left column in a div that's floated to the left, with a width of 50% or some other suitable number, and wrap the right column in a div that's floated to the right, with a width of 50% or some other suitable number.
The alternative to preserve semantics unfortunately relies on either absolute positioning (which wont work for dynamic tables) or JavaScript. jQuery Masonry is a reasonable way of aligning columns of stuff so that it all fits together nicely, but unfortunately will not work for users without JavaScript enabled.
table {
display: block;
width: 285px;
}
