I need your help in something... I am having trouble with tables at this page. http://www.decipheringlife.com/relation … ships.html
It previews fine in frontpage but some active x error puts the text absurdly... I have tried to rectify it but i am not able to.
please tell me which part is causing this error, and please tell me how to rectify it... it would be a great help...
The page seems visibly fine as i have adjusted the paragraph properties to suit the error.
I have added 90 after indentation to paragraph to avoid the overlapping of text...
the page seems okay in internet explorer till it asks for blocked content and after active x content is displayed, the tables overlap.the google ads have shifted right... and there are other errors which i am not able to fix...
please help...

well as you say the page displays fine.

Difficult to troubleshoot without seeing what it is actually doing. I did have a look at your code and found this on line #443.

<img border="0" src="file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/shivam/My%20Documents/My%20Webs/dimension/thumbs/homegrey.gif" width="40" height="50"></a>

This would display with FP on your computer but not from the web. Correct this and see if this corrects your problem/s

If you open the file in any editor, like frontpage, then u'll see that the indentation after the first article...    'Do I know you'... is indented 90 after text ( that pargraph properties ).
I think in line 542...    <table border="0" width="107%"   is what i have done to just adjust the page....
but if i do not add indentation the tables overlap each other. ( the middle column  and the right column )
please guide me,
thanking you sincerely,

Hi cipher,
I am not quite sure I understand the problem well enough to tell you exactly whats wrong, but in FP it will probably render better if you leave the tables set at 100%

In example:

<table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="100%" height="100%" style="border-collapse: collapse">

Alos, are you publishing page by page, or if your using extensions, are you making sure you are publishing by date modified? You may want to republish and do a complete overwrite. That may correct the item CE found.

In FP dont worry about a active x warning in preview mode, what matters is if you get an error after publishing.


What bothers me is that there is a ad that fires after 2 or 3 minutes, that needs to go away.

Looked more into this for you,

On line #542 you have;

<table border="0" width="107%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" id="AutoNumber3" height="1" bordercolorlight="#666666" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#111111">

As WS says, try changing the width from 107% to 100%

Fix the image src call tag I mentioned earlier then check things to see how they display.

On another issue that you may or may not be aware of.

To see first hand how important a DTD is View the page in IE.

Your tree of words is colored

View it in FF and the tree is not colored.

Place the proper DTD on the page and this difference will be corrected.

with such a simple layout it might be worth considering CSS layout? - plenty of free templates on the web

Well I was getting ready to shut down and go beddy-by. Couldn't let this one go.

Almost all of those templates validate with W3C. Good place to start out with CSS!

will definitely go out for css templates.. thank you

The question arises is this -

Why are you previewing in Front Page?

use whatever software you want to develop in; but I very much doubt any of your site's viewers will be viewing the page in FP.

So, preview in the common browsers for your market (probably IE and FF, but check your weblogs)

Any software that shows HTML as a web page has to interpret the HTML first. Different bowsers do this differently, and different WYSIWYG tools also display things differently.
