Shaded table borders

If you look at this page as an example,
http://www.share.ca/, how do you
get the shaded borders around the table? Is it something to do with
the background color or with the table borders?
Thanks.

OK, I have fiddled with the image from the site I'm using as
an example so I better understand now how it works. That image is
700 wide. I'm still having trouble tho in Dreamweaver adding a
repeated border to my centered table 700 wide so that the shaded
borders are exactly on the edges of the table.
Do I have to create my own image? If someone could help me
out with the steps, that would be great. I think I've gone as far
as I can in trying this.
Thanks.

Ms word tables borders and shading

I'm using the "word tables borders and shading.vi" and trying to put a border around the first row including between columns and the "inside line style" active x function in the word_set_table_borders.vi is being ignored. The file is attached. Open the library and run the word table.vi. You will have to create test.doc on the root directory on the hard drive. Any suggestions?

I ran your code and it worked fine. The top row of the table had a darker rectangle around it. I did have problems opening the file and it crashed my LV at first. I suspect there may be a corruption in the binary executable of the VI. Try pressing control-shift-run arrow on your top level VI to force LabVIEW to rebuild the binary executable of the VI.

Poor Quality Table borders in PDF

Hello.
I am having problems having the tables borders in Word 2007 look the same in the PDF (using Arobat 9 Pro). The quality is very poor which appears the lines are thicker than in the Word document. I am using 4000 DPI, High Quality print but still looks bad.   Images look good it is just the table borders that are the problem. Do you have any suggestion in improving this? Or is this a problem I have to live with?

Trying to convert any word doc with tables (& shading) to PDF

Lines in shaded table cells do not render properly in pdf created in Word 2010

When creating a pdf with shaded table cells using MS Word 2010; the black lines in the shaded table cells do not show up when looking at the page at a fit page view (anything under around 60%). They print, they are there when I zoom in, but will not show up if you zoom out.
I read a forum post in Adobe here which gave some really logical suggestions, but they didn't seem to work for everyone or the level of effort was not what i can put into it. I also tried some of those and variations of those; but they didn't seem to work.

Did anyone come up with a solution? Some people were saying it's a bug in pdf software, if that is the case, has anyone heard of a resolution?
I'm using Windows 7 and word 2010 btw, to create the pdf.
Thanks!!

Just as a test, have you tried the MS plugin for PDF creation? I have found with other versions of WORD and Acrobat that PDF Maker and the MS plugin can both fill in dots and dashes on vector graphics (basically what the border is) and yet it comes out correctly with printing to the Adobe PDF printer. Unfortunately I do not have a solution. In my case, it seemed to be related to the vector graphic itself (I could import it to InkScape or other vector graphic tool and save to EMF and it then worked fine. It may be something that MS themselves have messed up in OFFICE 2013. Good luck.

Table borders offset in PDF output

I am using RoboHelp HTML, version 9 and I need to deliver two outputs for my documentation: WebHelp and PDF.
My table borders look the way I want them to in WebHelp and Word, single line and thin (1px).
But when we go to PDF, I get two sets of lines, one all the way around my cells, another with gaps of white space.
I think its something to do with 3d borders not getting totally eliminated.
I've added "table-collapse: collapse;" to all my table styles.
Any ideas?
Note: If I create a table originally in Word with thin single line borders, it looks fine in PDF.
Here's how it looks in WebHelp and Word...
And then in PDF...

Peter,
Yes, as I mentioned in an earlier post, I really like the help design on your web site. I researched many looks in preparing for a new stylesheet project. Ended up emulating a lot of your elements rather than reinvent the wheel.
Hope you are OK with that. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery (definitely in my case).
Anyhow, I figured out my problem. The CSS for my original tables was using 5px padding all around. In Word output, this gets converted to table cell margins.
And that's what the PDF conversion doesn't like. Take out the original CSS padding--or the converted Word cell margins--and the problem goes away, leaving clean unbroken table lines in the PDF.
Best regards.

Table borders show up with Firefox or IE but not Safari (Win or MAC)

This very simple site (http://www.brandondean.net) has two table borders that show up under FF and IE but not Safari (either Win v4.0 or Safari for MAC, same result). I'm not an expert but I did the work using Dreamweaver 2004 MX as XHTML compliant, tested every page at W3C.org to make sure they comply with XHTML, and they do (except for my not putting in "alt" on images). I even downloaded Dreamweaver CS4 to run the "clean up the code" command and nothing is fixing the problem. I'm hoping someone out there has seen this before and can help us out. Thx.

Hi Gary,
It's probably just because the border widths you are specifying are too small (or WebKit is interpreting picas differently to Firefox/IE - I say WebKit as the same problem is visible in Google Chrome and that uses WebKit like Safari as well).
Try setting using this instead:
.borders {
font-family: Verdana;
font-size: 10px;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: normal;
font-variant: normal;
color: #cccccc;
text-decoration: none;
border: 1px solid #888888;
That seems to do the trick for Firefox and Chrome on this Linux machine I'm using at the moment.

You can use HTTP Receiver to pass the data to the servlet that runs on the HTTP Server. The servlet has already screen design logic written in HTML or jsp to display in HTML Table or so. PI requires to just post data on the servlet of HTTP Server using HTTP Receiver. PI will not create screen look and feel logic while posting data.

Need Help with giving Colors to Table Cells and Table Borders in Dreamweaver CC - Please!

Hi,
I am a teacher and use Dreamweaver CC to make my class web page.
How do I give colors to the cell borders of a table I inserted? How do I give colors and line thickness
to table borders, too?
I bought the David Powers DVD and it doesn't show that.
Please help.
Thank you,

Assuming that you have placed a table in your document and your CSS Designer panel is open
1. Click the '+' sign
2. Choose your option. I will choose 'Define in Page'
3. Follow the above sequence, 1.click on table, 2.ensure table is selected, 3.click on style, 4.click the '+' sign, 5. see the selector appear.
4. Click on the selector and choose the required Properties.
You can do the same for the row (<tr>) or a cell (<td>). In fact, this is how you would go about styling anything in your document.

HTML Printing with JEditorPane table borders is missing...

Hi,
My application prints HTML reports that was rendered on a JEditorPane,
actually the printing is working fine (almost)...
After reading a lot of posts and the Printing API i've found a very god aproach to print HTML documents... the DocumentRenderer:
http://www.fawcette.com/javapro/2002_12/online/print_kgauthier_12_10_02/
I'm having a strange problem that I was unable to figure out by myself...
Table borders and table background images never get printed...
ex: <TABLE BORDER=1 ...
<td background="image.gif" ...
On the JEditorPane it shows just fine but, when the page is printed there's no border or table background pictures...
Everything else is printed ok including images, small fonts, etc...
Does anyone else had the same problem ?
Thanks for any help

The borders present an interesting problem created by the way the DocumentRenderer class finds for printable Views in the HTML. DocumentRenderer searches recursively down the tree of Views starting with the Document's root view looking for leaf views, those with no children. The DocumentRenderer only paints these smallest chunks of text to the printer graphics context. This usually works because leaf views do not usually contain anything paintable.
The problem with borders is that they represent paintable areas of branch views, those with children. When we only print leaf views, these areas get ignored.
I see two logical solotions to the problem:
I. Change the code of the recursive printView method of Document Renderer to print any border that intersects with the current printable clip rectangle.
II. A much more elegant solution would be to print any view, branch or leaf, that fits within the current printable area, and cease the recursion there. This would include the borders.
It would also increase efficiency by terminating the recursive method earlier by painting larger chunks of the HTML. A strange problem pops up when I try this, however. When the size of the chunk to be printed gets too big, nothing is printed at all. In the article this is mentioned in the area of large images. "Lastly, large icons do not print. Java simply refuses to render them on the page. Small icons work quite well, however." The same holds true for any large View.
I have not been able to quantify the exact size where this failure occurs, nor what is causing it. If anyone can tell me what causes this problem, it should be fairly easy, depenging on the cause of the problem, to rewrite the class to print borders and also does lots of other good stuff. I have already coded the new and improved printView method, but this size limitation has made it unworkable.
Simply stated, if I can figure out why the class does not print large icons, the rest should be easy.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kei Gauthier

Formating Bold Table Borders in a report template

I'm using the Alternating-Color-Rows template in my reports. Is it possible to group columns together using thicker table borders after specific columns. How would you set this up in the template? e.g.

| | || | | || | | ||
| | || | | || | | ||
etc...

You do NOT save formatting to a CLOB type column, hence the C lob (Character). If you want to save a Word style document to a column, then look at a Blob (Binary)..

Prevent IC user drag table borders in Assignment

How can I prevent that an incopy user is able to 'drag' table borders within an assignment/?
I want the user to edit table text and figures but not to edit the layout/size of the table cells.

To prevent ctrl-c /v /x modify the InputMap (and ActionMap) associated with the JTable.
Look at SwingUtilities.getUIActionMap(...), SwingUtilities.getUIInputMap(...)
InputMap map = SwingUtilities.getUIInputMap(myTable,1);
mapi.remove(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_C,InputEvent.CTRL_MASK ));This code remove the ctrl-c for the specified component (myTable).
I hope this helps,

First you would remove 'border="10" from the html table code. Then you would add some css to style ALL the table borders inside the .header1 <div>:

Retaining format of table borders of Help done in Robohelp 7 into RoboHelp 9

Does anyone know how to import or retain the properties of table borders/cells of a Compiled HTML Help Module that was generated in RoboHelp 7 into RoboHelp 9? I'm using RoboHelp 9 for my work and have to generate an HTML Help using RoboHelp 9. But the previous Help was generated in RoboHelp 7. When I have to generate the new Help in RoboHelp 9, this RoboHelp doesn't have the same properties of the table borders of the previous Help. Please help.

I'm still not sure about what you are using and were using in Rh7. Rh for Word has an HPJ file to open it, Rh HTML has an XPJ file. They are different from an HHP file which is also a Rh HTML file.
Both generate CHMs so once we are certain about that Rh HTML is what your Rh7 project was in, we can deal with the table problem.
If Rh for Word is what is in use, then it should not have changed. In Rh HTML tables are now CSS driven but your old ones should not have been affected. Let's cover that when we are certain of the version of Rh the project is in.

Adjusting table borders in DW

I must say this has been frustrating me greatly.
I've been trying to resructure the layout of a DW template to suit
my own web page. That has involved trying to change the sizes of
some of the tables and shifting them around the page a bit. I've
found that DW is VERY uncooperative with me, and if I adjust the
border of one table on the page it will move the border of other
tables all over the page, or sometimes it will just act like it's
locked in place and it won't move at all. Very stubborn. I fought
with a page for hours last night trying to get it to appear how I
wanted. In the end I had to change my idea of how I wanted it to
look because it just flat refused to do what I wanted. Are table
borders just uncooperative bastards, or is there a method I'm
unaware of? Please help!!!

Web design is not like photoshop or any print/visual design
program. You can't just drag and drop
your layout elements. To do things right in Dreamweaver you
have to know a little bit about html and
css, and the less you know about them the more you should
look at your code and try to understand
what it all means.
you are talking about dragging table or cells borders in
design view to adjust their sizes? Not a
good idea to do that.
Tables are not meant to be dragged like that. You can either
define your tables width in pixels
(only the width, you CAN'T define the height of a table -you
just can't), or leave the dimensions
blank, so that they will naturally adjust their size
according to their content.
The content of a table is what gives it its size. If you drag
the table's border in design view,
Dreamweaver will have to insert some code that will
supposedly define the sizes of the tables and
cells, but unreliably. The more you drag and push, the less
the resulting code generated by
Dreameaver will be reliable.
And yes, cells inside a table are a relative world, meaning
that if you adjust a cell border, all
other cells will be affected.
The key facts:
-dragging/pushing borders in design view is not a way to go
-you CAN define a table (or cell) width in pixels, but you
CANNOT define its height. (so it is
pointless the adjust their height visually in design view, it
won't work)
-you will remain frustrated untill you learn html and css
basics (billions of tutorials online) -I
say html and css, not "Dreanweaver". Then, when you know some
basics, and go back to using
Dreamweaver, look at your code. Look at your code. Look at
your code...
