I've been using DBF2HTML and GenHTML.prg to output data as a list table into a browser using code from the DoHtml sample. It works fine.

However the data grid displays with a grey background and doubled lines which doesn't fit with the rest of my displays.

I can change the background colour by altering it in the Prescript field of GenHTML.dbf

But I can't see how to alter the cell spacing in the DBF or in GenHTML.prg.

The HTML code generated is:

<body bgcolor=&quot;silver&quot;>
<table id=&quot;GenTable&quot; border=1 >

which for some reason displays with a cell spacing of 2 giving double lines.
I want to get:

<body bgcolor=&quot;white&quot;>
<table id=&quot;GenTable&quot; border=1 cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;>

which will give me single lines separating fields and records.

Does anyone know how to generate this please.
I don't want to have to edit the HTML before displaying it.

I had the same problem.. and the documentation regarding genhtml is nonexistant in regards to the issue.

I ended up using strtofile, which allowed me to setup tables and field names as I wanted w/ no problems..
