Question:
In Microsoft Internet Explorer, I can specify a style as
TABLE.listTable { font-size : "10pt"}
and all the cells of the table will have a 10pt font size.
In Netscape, this approach doesn't work because the font sizes have to be specified for each cell (
), and any font specification you do at the table level doesn't apply to each cell. Can you suggest a solution so I don't have to specify something like
classes.listTable.td.fontSize = "10pt"
and add the CLASS=listTable to each | ?
Answer:
You can specify a setting for table cells (TD) elements using a style sheet:
TD { color: red; font-size: larger }
However, you have to be careful of your use of other style and formatting with the table as this can override the TD setting. For instance, not closing a table element, or using nested elements can turn off the global style setting.
For example, define a global style setting using:
and then create a table like this:
The table contents will show red, with a larger font size, for Netscape Navigator 4.x and up, and IE 4.x and up, in a Windows environment.
