Topic awaiting preservation: table in a layer (Page 1 of 1)

puting a table inside a layer seems not to work in ns.
any experience whith this? how can this be solved?
thanx

I am guessing that you mean NN4.7?? I didn't know that you couldn't do that. I just tried it and it would work, it just didn't support some functions like background-color when you didn't have any text in the div.

I will do some searching and see if I can find out anything.

Later,

~Binary is best~

We can be more helpfull, if you show us the code and what your having trouble with...

I put tables in almost everything I create and that most certainly includes putting tables into divs in netscape. Now that NN4 is starting to fade into the distance I'm trying to use CSS to do what I could only do with tables in the "before time".

Synthetic is right on, what specifically is not working for you?

I wanted to present text and an image beside each other in a <div> tag.
I simply put
<div id="name">
<table>
<TR>
<TD> TEXT </TD>
<TD> IMAGE </TD>
</TD>
</TABLE>
</div>

it did not work with Netscape but with ie.
I actually have no idea a bout versions an so on. This is a problrm that I am to solve. It will be helfull if any of U can tell me hoe I fined out which version a does a browser have.

Looks like you replaced a </TR> with a </TD> by accident.

Or maybe you just typed that code just now? If so, I'd still like to see a real full page with the problem (try stripping out everything but the necessary stuff if you don't want us to see the content for some reason), because I don't think there's any reason it wouldn't work. It's probably just a silly typo somewhere that Netscape is confused by but IE understands.

Oh, by the way, to find out the version of a browser, you can typically go to help -> about.

Not at all. I mean there,s no reason of hiding any thing.
I just made it without div. So I do not have the code any more. :-).
thanx for the (help) info.

I early wrote a topic (executable). since I was away for some days I did not continue it.
I am putting it now ( exxplicit )
if U can have a look.
thanx
