HTML Problem with database output

greenspun.com : LUSENET : S-Mart Shopping Cart : One Thread

I am trying to edit the output of the html which generates the tables so that they have a single color border of black. The code I am using is as follows:

The only problem is the script is now giving me errors when I try and run the script, I get the good old 500 error in ie5 (I would also like to be able to center all the cells). Any help would be grate

Hi,

You have to place a backslash before the quote marks. Change your line:

table border="1" width="100%" bordercolor="#000000" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"

To look like this.

table border=\"1\" width=\"100%\" bordercolor=\"#000000\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\"

To center the cells place the center command before everything you what to change and place /center at the end of line.

Thanks to jims answer I managed to get that part working, my only problem is now there is a problem with the look part of the tables show a flat colour on the click to buy button.

The main problem is the Name, price and the ammount cells are not a flat colour but a slightly spaced apart border which I can't for live or money get rid of.

I've also noticed all the tables/cells have shiffted to the right which is causing a 1cm gap :-(

To center table fields you would use the
command rather then .

Adding the center commands using up much more space to preform the sam e task :)
