[WSG] Using Tables w/CSS

2006-08-02 Thread CK

Hi,

My attempt at learning a step backwards has left me stumped:
(http://working.bushidodeep.com/table_layout/2Col_layout.html)

I've validation errors that I'm unable to debug. Would someone guide  
me to the correct solution?

The problem is solved, but the question lingers is this the most

Don't know since it is a bit minimal at the moment.

If this is what you're working on...
http://working.bushidodeep.com/table_layout/2Col_layout.html
...then it may at least pass as a valid and conforming xhtml document
once it is cleaned up by a well-instructed HTMLTidy.

Cleaned up and served as 'text/html'...
http://www.gunlaug.no/tos/alien/test_5400.html
...or served as 'application/xhtml+xml'...
http://www.gunlaug.no/tos/alien/test_5400.xhtml

I guess you want the former :-)
Some more CSS-tuning needed, and you'll have to decide what mode IE6
should run in.

Georg

Don't think the following causes clutter, as there certainly are some
who may welcome, or need, an update.

About IE6' mode...
http://www.w3.org/International/articles/serving-xhtml/#quirks

Myself, I usually keep IE6 in 'quirks mode'...
http://www.gunlaug.no/contents/wd_additions_16.html
...but that's not everyone's preference :-)

About CSS-tuning...
...just compare the result in the latest Opera, Firefox, Safari, and of
course IE6/7 and whatever other browser you want to support, and make
sure they all render your page as you want them to. Some differences at
the moment.
Table-designs are no more cross-browser reliable than CSS-layouts ;-)

Hi,

The more I attempt to unlearn for the sake of a project and temp  
agency, the more I'm forced to agree.

A tableless layout

lithography :-) ?
