CSS equivalent

[Todd Cary]

I have a <TD> that has these properties:

<td width="150" bgcolor="#336699" valign="top">

and I would like to put those properties into a CSS.

This does not work:

TD.LeftMenu {
width: 150;
position: top;
background-color: #336699;
}

No doubt I have messed up. What is the quivalent?

Many thanks...

150 what? bananas?

position: top;

I believe you're looking for the vertical-align property here.

background-color: #336699;

Could shorten this.

}

td.leftMenu {
width: 150px;
vertical-align: top;
background: #369; }

<td class="leftMenu ">

I must be missing something else since

http://209.204.172.137:8090/caht1/php/login.php

is without the CSS equivalent and

http://209.204.172.137:8090/caht1/php/login_2.php

with the above CSS.

You would be wise to correct all the errors before proceeding further.

http://209.204.172.137:8090/caht1/php/login_2.php

CSS:
<http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/...://209.204.172.137:8090/caht1/php/login_2.php>

HTML:
<http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http://209.204.172.137:8090/caht1/php/login_2.php>

Try learning what the acceptable attributes are first.
Your approach is correct. But you have not learned the proper ways of doing
it.
width? 150 what? In tables it is assumed to be pixels. But in CSS there are
other measuring tools to consider and MUST be included.
Position what? Position has nothing to do with the elements within the
division. But rather the position of the division itself. But then, perhaps
you should read about it first before implementing it.

Obviously, neither have you. CSS doesn't have attributes.

In the CSS version, you specify this in your HTML:
<td class="menuLeft">

And this in your CSS:
td.leftMenu {
width: 150px;
vertical-align: top;
background: #369; }

If you change your HTML to use class="leftMenu", you'll see a certain
difference.

Hey, didn't realise that first, but... you are using a table layout!!!
bad thing... if you decide to use CSS (which definetly is a good step!)
than use CSS for your layout, too, and get rid of those ugly tables. use
<table> *only* to describe tabular data, not for layout.
