Table at top of page

Russ Hromyko · Mar 31, 2005

I would like to create a bar or table that goes all the way across the very
top of the page yet when I create a table it doesn't go all the way to the
top or sides, there is a small space that seems to go around the table. How
do I create a table or whatever so there is no space between the table and
top and side of the page? I hope I explained this correctly.

Thanks.

Try this:

<body style="margin-top: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px;">
<table width="100%" cellspacing="0">
<TBODY>
<TR>
<TD>
Title
</TD>
</TR>
</TBODY>
</TABLE>
</body>

Hope it helps,

It defines a table body. All tables have at least one tbody and also
an optional thead and optional tfoot. The presence of a tbody is
implied so if you only have one table body in your table you can omit
the tbody start and end tags.

See http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/tables.html#edef-TBODY

Or this:

CSS:

body { margin: 0; padding: 0 }
h1 { font-size: 150%; text-align: center;}

HTML:

<body>
<h1>Title</h1>

Hope it helps,

You'd have to remove the default margins/padding on the html and body
elements, but this will affect the whole document, so beware of the
changes it may make to the look of the rest of the page.

html,body { margin:0; padding:0; }
