Problem with table formatting

I'm having a lot of problems with tables not reflecting their formatting when I open them in a browser. I've tried opening in Safari, Firefox & Camino with the same results. For example, a row with the following html content has a much larger height & aligns the text to the top when opened in a browser:
<tr>
          <td height="15" colspan="3" valign="middle"><h6 align="center">Summer 2009</h6>
          </td>
        </tr>
If it matters, this is a row in a table nested in another table. Here's the code down to the row in question (all tags are closed properly in the remaining code):
<table width="600" border="2" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
    <tr>
      <td align="center" valign="top"><img src="images/events.jpg" width="250" height="35"></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td align="left" valign="top">
      <table width="100%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0">
        <tr>
          <td height="15" colspan="3" valign="middle"><h6 align="center">Summer 2009</h6>
          </td>
        </tr>
I am using a style sheet for text. Here's the code for "h6" if that matters:
h6 {
font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial;
font-size: 14px;
font-weight: bold;
color: #660099;
Any ideas is appreciated. This is driving me nuts. Spacing and alignment sometimes work and sometimes don't work. Dreamweaver is supposed to make such things easier!

Header tags are usually used round a bit of text, not parts of a table, and if you don't specify the margins on them, can force different amounts of space below in different browsers. Try making the bottom margin on h6 zero, and confine it to text within a cell.
Also, if you can upload your page somewhere and let us have the url it will be easier to troubleshoot.

  • Java corba ID CS5 7.0 Problem with table format import excel 2007 document

    hello,
    I want to import an excel 2007 document with a table into a textframe. This is the code to set import preferences:
         ExcelImportPreference pref = aplicacion.getExcelImportPreferences();
         pref.setTableFormatting(kTableFormattingOptionsExcelFormattedTable.value);
    but when I insert the file into de texframe and export in a pdf file i lose the table format, always apply this format: kTableFormattingOptionsExcelUnformattedTabbedText.value.
    This problem only happens with excel 2007. Excel 2003 files the import is ok.

    Apart from iTunes (which I rarely update since we never use it) they both had a Java update, which I'm installing now but I can't imagine that's connected (plus they both didn't have it). Both Macs are 10.6.8.
    I also repaired the permissions and cleaned caches on Friday. Today I created a new user/profile and tried the same thing on that. No luck.

  • Mif template problem with table formatting

    I am trying to create a database driven Framemaker document via MIF. I have a problem trying to get my table formatting to work. The table tags and paragraph tags appear correctly in their respective designers but the values shown for font, shading, etc. are Frame defaults and not from my template unless I click on the tag drop down, reselect the same exact tag name and click apply. Any ideas on where I'm going wrong?
    Here is a snippet of the MIF for the main file:
    <MIFFile 7.10> # File created on 4/30/2009 3:03:36 PM
    include (AFrames.mif)
    include (Tbls.mif)
    include (template.mif)
    <TextFlow
    <TFTag `A'>
    <TFAutoConnect Yes>
    <TFFeather No>
    <TFMaxInterLine 3.0 pt>
    <TFMaxInterPgf 10.0 pt>
    <Para
      <PgfTag `Anchor'>
    <ParaLine
       <ATbl 500>
      > # end of ParaLine
    > # End of Para
    etc.
    And here is a sample from the Tbls.mif file:
    <Tbls
    <Tbl
      <TblID 500>
      <TblTag `Item Table'>
      <TblFormat

    etc.

    The include statements must appear in this order:

    Actually that does make sense to me (and I hate to say it, I remember now that I ran across this issue a million moons ago when first doing MIF export from a database).
    In looking at the MIF includes order, in your first example:
    include (AFrames.mif)
    include (Tbls.mif)
    include (template.mif)
    all of the tables are being instantiated before FM has a chance to "analyze" the template section -- so there's no way it can say "aha, this is the FormatA that I already know" so that's why it puts the "star" on the format, indicating that it's an override to the table catalog format (and in fact there's no table format catalog yet, no table format names at all, so it's an "override to nothing" table.
    In your successful document, the template includes the format for "FormatA", so when the tbls section comes along FM says "ah, ok, this is an instance of "FormatA" that I know already exists in the table catalog" so assuming there aren't any formatting changes in the instance of the table, it doesn't mark each table instance as a override to the named table format.
    "include (aframes.mif)"
    "Include (template.mif)"
    "include (tbls.mmif)"

  • Problem with tables -- need help!

    I am having problems with table formatting, when using
    Preformatted text. The tables look fine in the WYSIWYG editor, but
    have lots of extra space above and below the text when looking at
    the output files.
    I will attach the code from one of the HTML files from my
    project, so you can see what I'm talking about.
    Thanks.

    Well, if you're talking about the single-celled table with
    the line:
    <p class=Preformatted>[assembly:
    Ace.AceAssembly]</p>
    </pre>
    ... you can eliminate the <P> tags. that will give you
    one line less. Otherwise, your remaining space is the result of the
    <PRE> tag. It, like the <XMP> tag, gives it one line of
    space beneath as well.
    Your alternative beyond that would be to, when needed, wrap
    up the script in Javascript. That line, for instance, wouldn't need
    it.

  • Error while opening pdf in reader in windows 8:Can't open this file. There's a problem with file format

    I have a problem with a pdf file which does not open with reader in windows 8 but it opens properly with adobe pdf reader. All other pdf can be opened in reader.But when i open a pdf(see this link for pdf for which i got error http://incometaxsoft.com/temp/Form.pdf)
    it gives error as "Can't open this file. There's a problem with file format".
    The same file opens properly in adobe pdf reader.You can check the pdf file which i have mentioned in the link above.But the reader which comes with windows 8 can open some other pdf in the same PC.What may be the error causing this??

    This has turned out to be an enormous issue for me as I sell PDF files as ebooks. I have done a fair amount of investigating this for my system.
    My files have to be compatible not just across readers but across operating systems.
    To date, I have over 200 PDFs that have functioned flawlessly across Mac, PC (Windows 7 and below), Android, iPhone/iPad, Linux.
    I personally test my PDFs using a variety of readers and PDF editors including
    PDF XChange (my favorite)
    Foxit (runner up for me and I recommend for most people)
    Adobe (the bloated monster)
    Nitro 9 (great for moving graphical elements around)
    ABBYY
    And the Nuance PDF Create toolsets
    Those are off the top of my head. There are a bunch on Android that I test with too.
    I am running the Windows 10 Pro Tech Preview and I have this same problem so I know it isn't fixed yet in any kind of pre-release way (-sigh-)
    Here is what I've learned for my situation
    The PDFs I created using NUANCE'S PDF CREATE PROFESSIONAL VERSION 8
    all fail using the built-in Windows 8/10 PDF reader.
    When I look at the PDF properties for these Nuance created files, the underlying engine used to write them is called "ImageToPDF". Using ABBYY it indicates their own engine as does everyone else that I've tried. It is easy for you to check to see
    what created your PDF by doing a "Control D" (look at the document properties). Perhaps there's a common engine causing issues.
    If I use the exact same source files to create a PDF using any of my other tools I have no issues. I checked the PDF versions made by the tools and they are all set to 1.5.
    A customer mentioned being able to convert them in a way they worked by saving them without having to do any kind of extraction, but I have not been able to duplicate that. Perhaps he did a "print" which seems like it could work.
    In summary, the workaround everyone is talking about, using an alternate reader, of course works. But not everyone wants to change.
     The culprit I have found is my Nuance PDF Creation tools that are using the ImageToPDF engine.
    I hope it gets FIXED as I really don't want to have to regenerate all of my PDF files.

  • A Problem with Region Format Settings

    Hi!
    I have a peculiar problem with Region Format settings on my iPod touch (Settings > General > International > Region Format). It appears that iPod touch can support more region formats than it is stated on that list. Once I registered my iPod, I selected my location, Lithuania, and it automatically set (I think because of this action, and not another, like my PC settings) Region Format to Lithuanian. Although it is nonexistent on the menu list! Good news!
    However, the problem is that while I explored my iPod I accidentally checked another region, and there is no "cancel" option. So my region switched to another. And now I am not able to switch it back to Lithuanian again because there is no such selection (reset or restore didn't help).
    Has anybody any suggestions how could I return to my preferred region format (Lithuanian)? Thanks!

    thats interesting. I think the ipod took those settings from your computer/mac.
    anyway, shouldn't there be something near you that has the same region format settings? maybe you can just use something that's exactly the same.
    and btw: some of the regions have arrows next to them which brings you to subregions of that region. maybe you should check that out?
    otherwise ... well ... I think only a restore would bring back the original settings.

    Hi,
    Using SPACE against the keys (LAUFI, LAUFD - specifically LAUFD) will most likely return no results. LAUFD, being one of the keys and the date which the program is supposed to run (considering that this is settlement data - it has already run) - implies that this field will be populated.  Putting " = SPACE" in your where clause is saying that you want to find records from the table where those fields are not populated.  That is fine for LAUFI, considering it is the indicator for a proposal only. In my requirement, my client did not want to see proposals but only real payment runs - therefore, LAUFI = SPACE is correct. 
    The reason you are having poor performance while selecting form this table is because it is a cluster table like bseg.  This thread explains a little bit of why cluster tables are a performance nightmare when trying to select - although it is about bseg, you will get the idea:
    http://blogs.ittoolbox.com/sap/db2/archives/select-from-bsegrfblg-performance-problem-14247
    I'm trying to find an alternative to get bank account information regarding payments - I will post a reply if I am lucky to find one!

  • Problem with Table control lines

    Hi Friends,
    This is the problem with table control lines:
    I have screen with table control and I would like change the table control lines dynamicaly.
    Exp:
    In my PBO the Internal table which I am using to loop the TC is havig 7 records and its displayed with 7 records, now I have added one more record into my ITAB and now ITAB is having 8 records, when I am looping this ITAB with TC its taking the TC lines 7 only.
    here is the code:
    Initial values in gt_scr400 = 8
    Initial values in tc_scr400 = 8
    Now added one more recor into gt_scr400 , now gt_scr400  = 9.
      LOOP AT   gt_scr400
           INTO wa_scr400
           WITH CONTROL tc_scr400
           CURSOR tc_scr400-current_line.
      ENDLOOP.
    I have used this logic :
      DESCRIBE TABLE gt_scr400 LINES g_rec_300 .
      tc_scr300-lines = g_rec_300.
    but its not modifying the lines in my table control.
    How to change the TC lines based on ITAB total records.
    Thanks,
    Sridhar

    there is a field in TableViewName-xxx
    don't remember the exact field name for (total no of records)
    you can check it in debug.  when you add records in Internal table, u need to modify this field which is set at the first time when table control is populated.

  • Problem with table paging [PDK for NET]

    Hi All,
    I have a problem with table paging in PDK for .NET (ver 2).
    The Table has 14 visible rows.
    The lead selection is set to "SINGLE"
    When the user selects a row I can use
    Table1.SelectedKeys(0) Mod Table1.VisibleRowCount
    in order to get the info of the selected row.
    If I will page using the "Prev/Next" page of the Table UI element it will also work.
    However, when I press "Prev/Next" item and then select a row it chooses the wrong row.
    (See picture: http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/3882/table5tq.jpg)
    What can I do in order to solve the problem?
    Thanks,
    Omri

    Hi Omri,
    how are you doing ?
    The SAPTable is similar to a DataGrid control and need to be bound to the datasource on every postback
    a good idea is to keep the dataset available in the page or on the server ( so that you dont need to keep making expensive fetch operations
    The selected row is affected by the recordset (dataset) and needs additional programming
    A work around for the selected row issue is to save it in a server side hidden variable (or anything that will persist) and read and set the value in the page / next button handler
    with respect,
    amit
