tomfmason Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 I am knew to php. Before now my site was html only. I am now switching to php and am running into some problems. I am not sure if css would be the best way to do what I want or not. I am not expecting anyone to write the code for me. I would rather be pointed in the right direction, so that I will learn. Here is a link to a page that will explain my problem better [a href=\"http://www.owpt.biz/test/index.php\" target=\"_blank\"]OWPT[/a]. Any help would be greatly appericated.Thanks Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/12968-aligning-columns/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big mess being, The header is centered the way I want but the left column and center are in the center of the page (on top of each other) and the footer and right column are way off. I have an example and the problem explained better as well as copies of my php code at the site.

AndyB Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 Good grief - what awful code.This is nothing to do with php and everything to do with html. height is not a valid attribute for table. height is not a valid attribute for tr or td either. Table elements take their height from the amount of their content. The mis-alignment is caused by using the align attribute for the tables incorrectly. You have pseudo-style attributes for some table elements and those are meaningless as you have coded them.Best bet - code better and clean up the html. Oh, and you can't put the BODY tag at the end of the page. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/12968-aligning-columns/#findComment-49874 Share on other sites More sharing options...
