I want to display 3 button which contains 5 values side by side. I want to enhance the display of the button.
Example:
1 aombhkjsdhffhf hehehe 4 5
2 khdjhfhf dhjfhj 6 7
3 hhkjhdjkhdjh jhkjhjkh 8 9
So, each line above needs to be on a button. So I have 3 buttons, but the display on the buttons needs to be as if I am displaying a table.
Do you have any suggestions?
You can put a table inside of the <button> tag.
<button>
<table>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>aombhkjsdhffhf</td>
<td>hehehe</td>
<td>4</td>
<td>5</td>
</tr>
</table>
</button>
<br>
<button>
<table>
<tr>
<td>2</td>
<td>khdjhfhff</td>
<td>dhjfhj</td>
<td>6</td>
<td>7</td>
</tr>
</table>
</button>
<br>
<button>
<table>
<tr>
<td>3</td>
<td>hhkjhdjkhdjk</td>
<td>jhkjhkjh</td>
<td>8</td>
<td>9</td>
</tr>
</table>
</button>
and define the css so that the td element has a certain width:
td{width:100px;}
See sample on JSFiddle.
This sounds like something you could easily handle with css and javascript. In other words, render a normal html table, use CSS to make each row look like a button, and use javascript to tie an event handler to each row's click.
Html
<table>
<tr class="button">
<td>aombhkjsdhffhf</td>
<td>hehehe</td>
<td>4</td>
<td>5</td>
</tr>
<tr class="button">
<td>khdjhfhf</td>
<td>jhkjhjkh</td>
<td>6</td>
<td>7</td>
</tr>
<tr class="button">
<td>hhkjhdjkhdjh</td>
<td>dhjfhj</td>
<td>8</td>
<td>9</td>
</tr>
</table>
Css
tr.button {
/* the css to make each row look like a button */
}
Javascript
// using jQuery
$('tr.button').click(function() {
// do whatever here.
});

I am trying to center just certain columns in a table but I am having issues. I know in the past you would just simply apply inline styles to each TD but there has to be a better way.
Here is a simple example:
.centerText{
text-align:center;
}
<table border="1">
<col>
<col class="centerText">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>heading1</th>
<th>heading2</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>3</td>
<td>4</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>5</td>
<td>6</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>7</td>
<td>8</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
With that class I am trying to center the text inside. I know applying css to the col will work for changing background color for the column and text color and such, but I am not sure how I would use it to center a column. I am assuming because I need to center the contents of the td and this is probably just centering the TD element itself; which is already 100 percent.
I understand I can just say apply the css to the 5th TD in this TR but that seems fragile.
Also, bonus points if you can show me how to change the width of a column this way. I used the width attribute for col but that is deprecated in html 5 (even though it is still currently supported.
Done, your class wasn't used anywhere
tr td:nth-child(2) {
text-align:center;
}
<table border="1">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>heading1</th>
<th>heading2</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td >2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>3</td>
<td>4</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>5</td>
<td>6</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>7</td>
<td>8</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
I removed:
<col>
<col class="centerText">
and
.centerText{
text-align:center;
}
Because col doesn't mean anything and you didn't close the tags.
CSS
table {
border-collapse: collapse;
width: 100%;
}
td {
text-align: center
}
If you want to align your all td content to the center
add the centerText class to your table
<table class="centerText" border="1">
It's not completely clear what you want, but if you want to center the contents of a certain column, you can just use this CSS rule:
td:nth-child(2) {
text-align:center;
}
In this example it applies to the second column, but you could define that for any column. It works since the td are always children of a tr, so you can use the nth-child selector.
td:nth-child(2) {
text-align: center;
}
<table border="1">
<col>
<col class="centerText">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>heading1</th>
<th>heading2</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>3</td>
<td>4</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>5</td>
<td>6</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>7</td>
<td>8</td>
</tr>
</tbody>

I am HTML/CSS beginner attempting to create calendar view very similar to Microsoft Outlook's design as shown below:
So far, I gotten the basic outline of the calendar with the following HTML/CSS:
<html>
<head>
<title>August, 2016</title>
</head>
<body>
<center><h1>August, 2016</h1></center>
<style>
table{
table-layout: fixed;
}
</style>
<table border="1" width="1250" height="800">
<tr>
<th>Sun</th>
<th>Mon</th>
<th>Tue</th>
<th>Wed</th>
<th>Thur</th>
<th>Fri</th>
<th>Sat</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td>
<table>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td>
Claim Benefits<br>
Pick up groceries<br>
Iron the shirts<br>
+5 more...
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
<td>2</td>
</tr>
<td>3</td>
<td>4</td>
<td>5</td>

Which produces:
I want to accomplish some of the same things Outlook does:
The day of the month number should be on the top left corner of the cell. I attempted to create this with a table inside the cell but it doesn't quite feel or look right. I am directly attempting to recreate Outlook's view and the way they setup the day number and reminders below it.
Each of the cells should maintain the same size while containing up to 4 hyperlinks. In the above code, the cells of the row containing hyperlinks become bigger than the cells of the other rows. I want to fix the cell size such that all cells are the same size whether they contain up to 4 hyperlinks or not.
Thanks for any helpful code or suggestions.
An easy way to position/style the calendar numbers separately from the content is to make them td pseudo-elements. You could set the content to something like attr(data-day) to have it dynamically display a number set in the HTML.
To make sure the cells have the same height, just specify a height in the CSS. Since you only want "up to 4 hyperlinks", you can just check what the height is for a cell with 4 links and then use that.
By the way, it looks like there are a lot of errors with the tr tags in your code, and I would recommend representing the listed elements inside an individual day as a list rather than as nested tables (the calendar is tabular data, but the contents of the day are a to-do list).
Here's a snippet that includes the recommended changes:
table {
table-layout: fixed;
width: 1250px;
height: 800px;
}
table td {
height: 100px;
position: relative;
}
table td:before {
content: attr(data-day);
display: block;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
background: yellow;
}

I think You can add a flot:left; style to this month number, and maybe margin,padding:0;
I suggest to use min-height with the same value as height of all cells
First, you have not added any styling so you are leaving that up to the browser's defaults. Also, the center tag is deprecated. Use this instead:
h1 {text-align:center;}
For the table, you can add this to make the border appear like Outlooks' borders:
table, th, td {border-collapse: collapse;}
To style the table data remove the padding and margin. That should move the first td in the first tr to the top left corner.
Lastly, add a specific height to the row of each week. I would assign that tr a class of week and style with whatever height you want:
tr.week {height:200px;}
I'm trying to help my son with a HTML project. This is to be only HTML, not CSS. He has to build a table with his school class schedule. I can't seem to get the columns to line up.

Any suggestions? Any help would be appreciated.

Im sorry... But please look at the code first.
You are beginning with a </tr> That means you want to close a <tr>
And at the end you dont close the <tr>
Second point, why a table inside of a <p> ?
I think if you fix those minor faults.. it will be fine.
Succes with helping your son
Your HTML is malformed. Among other issues:
There is a stray closing </tr> tag just inside <table> tag which needs to be removed.
After the <td></td> containing "Rogers" is an extra </tr> which needs to be removed.
You are missing a </tr> at the end of the table before the </table> tag.
Your HTML is missing the closing </body> and </html> tags.
You should use an HTML validator, such as this one. This will help you discover these types of issues in the future.
They seem messed up because default h alignment for <th> is center and for <td> is left. If you switch th with td you should be fine.
I also agree with the other answers that you have some html issues. I recommend you write html using a specialized editor.
your open and close tags were somewhat messy.
plus I added some html alignment for the head row.
Next time use a text highlighting editor, it makes life a whole lot easier to find the issues:
jsFiddle Example
<p><table border="0" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<th align="left">Period</th>
<th align="left">Class</th>

I'm currently learning HTML. I was trying to create a simple HTML document that displays a simple table, but I'm having troubles. My web browser (Mozilla Firefox) is not displaying the borders for the whole table. It looks like if it was a regular paragraph.
Here is what I have
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0//Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11-strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>My first web page</title>
</head>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>2</td>
<td>3</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>4</td>
<td>5</td>
<td>6</td>
<tr>
<td>7</td>
<td>8</td>
<td>9</td>
<tr/>
<tr>
<td>10</td>
<td>11</td>
<td>12</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
Try adding a border attribute to the <table> tag, like this:
<table border="1">
Edit: If you have seen tables with borders, but without the border attribute set, it's probably because they were styled with css, which is the preferred way to style everything in html (not by adding individual attributes as above):
<head>
<title>My first web page</title>
<style type="text/css">
table {border: 1px solid black;}
td {border: 1px solid black;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
...
</body>
As another learning exercise, you should also look into linking to an external style sheet, as an alternative to using a <style> tag in the html as shown here. Here is a decent beginning tutorial: http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_howto.asp
You might want to control border by using something like :
<table style="border:2px solid red;">
You're missing a closing element for second row. Should be:
<head>
<title>My first web page</title>
</head>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>2</td>
<td>3</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>4</td>
<td>5</td>
<td>6</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>7</td>
<td>8</td>
<td>9</td>
<tr/>
<tr>
<td>10</td>
<td>11</td>
<td>12</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
I have a table, constructed like this:
<table>
<tr> <td>1</td> <td>2</td> <td rowspan="4">3</td></tr>
<tr> <td>4</td> <td>5</td> </tr>
<tr> <td>6</td> <td>7</td> </tr>
<tr> <td>8</td> <td>9</td> </tr>
<tr height="100"><td colspan="2">10</td><td class="eleven">11</td> </tr>
</table>
Now the problem is within the last row. Whole row has a height set to 100px, so there is a plenty of room in TDs. In the very last TD I want to set an individual padding, so only the content "11" is padded from the top:
.eleven {
padding-top:15px;
}
Setting this causes the problem - the first TD in this row also gets padding-top:10px; Why and how to make only the 2nd one padded?
Why don't you wrap the content you want to be padded into a <div> (onto which you will be applying the padding style) and put that <div> into the <td>?
<td>
<div style="padding-top: 15px;">
Content
</div>
</td>
Ok, I found out what caused the problem. It was an entry in a little html5-css-reset snippet I use:
vertical-align:baseline;
assigned generally to most of common elements. Having that in mind, now everything works as supposed to.
