CSS equivalent

[Mynscu]

border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"

what's the CSS equivalent for these html atributes?I've been using

border-collapse:collapse; border-spacing:0; padding:0

but it doesn't create the same effect? Does adding

padding:0

for every td solve the issue?

For the border you can use >> border: 0px;There is no CSS CELLPADDING property or attribute, however, the CSS padding property can do the same thing and more, see w3schools.com/csscellspacing can be used in combination with the above, note the latter two attributes add little meaning to tables.So the code should become something liketable {border: 0px;padding: 0px; /*really optional*/margin: 0px; /*really optional*/}happy learning

Tried it...it doesn't produce the same effect.If I add

border-collapse:collapse

then it has the same effect as the html attributes.

I created a table recently and I used padding to replace cellpadding and it seemed to look exactly the same.

I would be surprised if this worked the same as cellpadding="5"

table{  padding: 5px;}

I would expect this,however, to work the same

td, th{  padding: 5px;}

cellspacing and margin would work much the same way.

aspnetguy, that's what I meant. Sorry I didn't precise. I used padding on the td and th.

[Mynscu]

body {padding: 0px;margin: 0px;}table {border: 0px;padding: 0px;margin: 0px;border-collapse:collapse; }td, th {padding: 0px;}

I am using this stylesheet right now and it seems to have the same effect as

border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"

if I remove border-collapse then borders appear and it's not good.Anyways, another quick question (really don't want to start a new topic for this ). How do I make the width of a table cell remain the same no matter the text it contains. I tried just plain old width but it really didn't seem to have any effect if the text was longer. Also tried max-width with kinda the same effect.The height of the table is not restrained in any way.
