td inner border

[Haris Bogdanoviæ]

Hi.

I have a table 10*10 but there is no border around table cells.
The border appears when I put something in a cell.
How to make a cell border visible when cell is empty ?

Thanks

In this NG you should give a Javascript solution:

var tbls = document.getElementsByTagName("table");
for (i=0;i<tbls.length;i++)
for (j=0;j<tbls.rows.length;j++)
for (k=0;k<tbls.rows[j].cells.length;k++)
tbls.rows[j].cells[k].innerHTML += '&nbsp;';

1) Ask in an html authoring group.
2) Put something in the cell.
3) The html authoring group might suggest what to put in the cell (I
know what I'd use, but if I suggest it here I'll probably get shot down
in flames).

1) Ask in an html authoring group.

Yes, use:

comp.infosystems.www.authoring.html
<URL: http://groups.google.com/group/comp.infosystems.www.authoring.html?lnk=
Fully specify the HTML and CSS (if any) that is being used for the
table. Over there they like links to examples rather than posted code,
but if you keep it short and concise they won't mind.

&nbsp is fine.
I should have asked this in html newsgroup though.

with a stylesheet ?

table { empty-cells: show }

or

<table style="empty-cells: show">

You should but you haven't if is not of circumstance ! :-(
There is no need of &nbsp; anyway.

var tbls = document.getElementsByTagName("table");
for (i=0;i<tbls.length;i++)

for( var i=0, n = tbls.length; i<n; i++)
tbls.style.emptyCells = 'show';

for (j=0;j<tbls.rows.length;j++)
for (k=0;k<tbls.rows[j].cells.length;k++)
tbls.rows[j].cells[k].innerHTML += '&nbsp;';

why finally adding an unbreakable space everywhere ?

if(tbls.rows[j].cells[k].innerHTML == '')
tbls.rows[j].cells[k].innerHTML = '&nbsp;';


Mais c'est vraiment n'importe quoi !
de l'obscurantisme JavaScript !

1 Doesn't work in my IE8.

2 Not needed in Chrome.

Is this a FF solution only?

3 OT, not JS.
