vet911 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I'm having trouble with my script. I'm getting pictures from the database and showing it in 3 columns and putting some information in each table location with the picture. But I made a change and now the table still works but I get a full blank page and have to scroll down to see the pictures. Can anybody see where my problem exists, it was working fine but now it doesn't. Any help would be appreciated.

cssfreakie Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 I don't see anything here that could cause a big white space above your table. But than again I am not sure what you have in your stylesheet what may very well say table{margin-top:600px;} or something. Do you maybe have it somewhere online so i can have a look. I think this is more a html css question than a php one. Also your using some bad tags (see my signature for a reference on that) and your pretty inconsistent with the use of <br> and <BR> have you tried to run the output of your page through a w3c validator also?

vet911 Posted April 28, 2011 Author Share Posted April 28, 2011 Jcbones you hit it right on the head, I removed the <br> and now it back to the top of the page. I must have put that in yesterday cause I didn't put it there today. Thanks to all who responded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
