alpine Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 You have a misplaced tr close, probably that one messing up:echo "<table width='500 px' height= '400 px' align = 'center' border='1' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='3'>[color=red] </tr>"[/color];**EDIT**Noticed another one - missing close bracket on one of your tr starts echo "<tr bgcolor='#ddd8dc'[color=red]>[/color]"; } else { echo "<tr bgcolor='#feaae9'>"; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridiculous Posted October 7, 2006 Author Share Posted October 7, 2006 I wish that </tr> would have done the trick. No go. Thanks, I'm still looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
