I have a table structure like below:
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<div id="FirstDiv">
<table>
<tr>
<td>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</td>
<td>
<div id="SecondDiv">
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
The structure of FirstDiv and SecondDiv are same. The td tag inside FirstDiv contains some text and I am showing the text (Text is dynamic one,it is coming from back end.) using anchor tag but if the text is more wider than 150px, it is pushing the border to right. According to requirement, there should not be any horizontal scroll bar so, I tried to wrap the text inside the anchor tag, giving styles like word-wrap:normal, but till now not able to fix it. Its either giving me a horizontal scroll bar or pushing the border to right.
Thanks in advance.
Try this:
table {table-layout:fixed}
td {width:50%}

Currently trying to align an image to the bottom of it's table. At present it reverts to the top naturally. I've tried everything but the image still sits to the top of the table.
</table>
<td class="logo-label">
<table>
<img src="http://strawberry.wpdevcloud.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/smllnat_logo.jpg" height="36" width="113">
</td>
</table>
I know it will be something simple but at the moment I cannot get my head around why the image isn't moving.
First of all, the HTML structure is completely wrong. <td> and </td> are table cells, so they lie between <tr> and </tr> (table rows). <tr> and </tr> lie in between <table> and </table> (the table itself). The structure of a table is shown below:
<table>
<tr>
<td>Cell contents here</td>
</tr>
</table>
You can have as many <tr>s and <td>s as you wish.
A table by default has no width. Put in another way, its width is set to auto, i.e. it takes the width of its contents. Set the width and height attributes to avoid this. A table also has no borders by default. Set border="1" to make the borders visible.
To align an image to the bottom of its parent element (<td> in this case), one way to do it is to set position:relative for the parent element and set position:absolute for the child element. Then, set bottom:0 for the child element. The image will then be aligned to the bottom of the element. The snippet below sums up the whole process.
<table border="1" width="500" height="300">
<tr>
<td style="position: relative">
<img style="position:absolute; bottom:0" src="http://strawberry.wpdevcloud.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/smllnat_logo.jpg" alt="Natural Complexions" height="36" width="113">
</td>
</tr>
</table>
There may also be some rules in your logo-label CSS rule, which we don't know about.
First of all, that is a real mess you have. Secondly, you need to look at your CSS file and look up what "logo-label" is doing. That is controlling the alignment of the image.
<table>
<tr>
<td class="logo-label">
<img src="http://strawberry.wpdevcloud.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/smllnat_logo.jpg" alt="Natural Complexions" height="36" width="113">
</td>
</tr>
</table>
I have a table with multiple columns. In one of the column rows I want to add 2 elements which will be next to each other. One text element and one icon. The icon has a fixed with, the text element needs to be dynamic and has to be truncated with ... when the column cannot stretch anymore.
This is the HTML:
<table>
<tr>
<td>
</td>
<td>
<span>Truncated text goes here</span>
<i class="icn sprite icn-name></i>
</td>
<td>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
How do I do this? Using display: table; will make the HTML all buggy.
As said in comments, if you allow text and image to stay in adiacent cells, you can try the following.
<table>
<tr>
<td>Truncated text goes here</td>
<td><img src="imageURL" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
You can use vertical-align:top; in td style to align text on the top of the cell. And then you can use the following to set image width.
td>img {
vertical-align:top;
display:inline-block;
width:80px;
}
Fiddle
UPDATE
If you don't want to add extra cells to your table, you can create an internal div inside the cell, display it with display:table; property, and then display both span and img with display:table-cell; property.
Fiddle
I added the <i> element in front of the <span> element and gave the <i> element a float: right; and the <span> element the truncate styles.
Works fine now!
I am looking for some html help. How would I go about moving a text block centrally within a cell but also keeping their alignment left intact. I do not wish the text to be displayed all centered as I am going to be using an unordered list. I simply want the block of text to be moved in to the center of the cell.
Example of current scenario:
http://jsfiddle.net/AygnN/
<table id="sub-content" style="width: 100%;">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th>Departments</th>
<th>KPI Types</th>
<th>Bonus</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<ul>
<li>dfgsdgfdfg</li>
</ul>
</td>
<td>
<ul>
<li>sdfgsdfgsdfg</li>
</ul>
</td>
<td>
<ul>
<li>sdgsdfgsdffgsdgf</li>
</ul>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
If you have the <h1> tags as column headers, you should use actual table headers (<th> tags). Now, in the CSS you can say:
th { text-align:center; }
EDIT:
#sub-content td{ padding:0px 60px; }
and all table headers will be centered while all lists in the table will be aligned to the left.
This method is much more standard.
JSFiddle
You can put the text in a div and host the div inside the table cell. The text will follow the css style specified in div where as the div itself will be in center of the cell.
The example you have given does same kind of things. It rather divides the cell in multiple cells and put the text in the middle one.
I have the following rows in a css file
body {text-align: center;}
table {margin: 0 auto}
this causes to all text to be aligned to the middle.
but in somse inner 's I want the text to be aligned right or left
So I added
<table style="text-align:right;">
and the text was still centered.
what shoud I add ?
Your code actually works, it's just hard to tell in your example. Take a look at this fiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/UzRdL/
Please add style="text-align:right" with td. i think it will be work.
thanks
I guess the table is centered due to the parent div (body). I'll use a div with 100% width and align the text inside it to the right
Or float the div or table to the rigth
If you want only some of the text in the table to be right alignment.
then
<table>
<tr>
<td> Text </td>
<td style='text-align:right'> This text is align to right </td>
<td style='text-align:left'> This text is align to the left </td>
</tr>
</table>
I am trying to change the alignment (center) and background color of only certain pieces of text within a table-cell. I know how to do it for the whole cell, but how do you do it for only specific pieces of text?
<td>
<div style="text-align: right;">will be aligned right</div>
<div style="background-color: #999;">will have a gray background</div>
</td>
It's better if you do this properly through a css stylesheet, this is just for illustrative purposes.
Wrap the text to which you are interested in adding css in a span. Note that if you want the text centered in a column you probabaly want to apply "align:center" to the <td> and not the span.
For example:
<tr>
<td><span class="classForEverythingButCentering">not centered</span></td>
<td style="align:center">centered</td>
<td class="centered">differently centered
(if you setup a class named .centered or perhaps td.centered).</td>
</tr>
