Hi
If I wanted to use a present coded table in tabular form -- which is a 4 column 10 row used for links---
Is there a way of starting the table in a <div id="table"> ??? or other way, as I want to keep the tables in tabular form ??
Appreciate your thoughts --- Tables are acceptable in the tabular way as opposed to using them to positioning
Since a TABLE elment is block-level, you can use it in positioning in the same fasion as a DIV. The only difference, obviously, is the purpose of the element. Just because it is for tabular data does not mean you cannot use CSS to format it.Hi Jonah
What blockcode would that be please ?? -- i am new at this, please be simple
What do you mean "you can use it in positioning in the same fasion as a DIV." ??
Just started learning css.
We all have to start ---Hi -
No, not blockquote - as in adding margins to an area of text...
What they mean is that some html elements are inline (img, i, b, etc.) and others are block-level (div, p, h#, table, ul, etc.). A block-level element will display vertically in the 'flow', and inline will bump up against each other horizontally - only starting a newline when they run out of room in the parent element's 'container'.
So, since a table will display block-level, as a div would, you may not need to 'house' it within one, unless the rest of the content makes it necessary.
(I think.)
Good luck,
