I've got a problem with using nested tables in Netscape 6. I don't seem to be able to change the table cell colours in a nested table using either inline attributes or styles. The doctype I'm using is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
When I remove this doctype, the problem goes away. Can anyone help me on this? Do I need to specify a different DTD or something?
thanks,
Mike Nashvili
I'd check your table markup first. Then I'd check your CSS. Maybe you have a short example that you can show us?
I agree with moonbiter - and suggest you take it one step further. Don't just "check" your code, validate it through the W3C online validators [validator.w3.org].
Then, if the glitch is still there we can dig into the relevant snippets of your code. But it's amazing how often non-valid code (perhaps a hard to notice typo) can creep in and foul up the works. So please do check that first.
