Table Border and Background Colours.

[bluedollar]

I have a table with a row containing a <th> and a <td>. I have set the bgcolor on the <tr>, however the colouring is as follows:

---------------------------------------------
: grey : : grey :
---------------------------------------------

There is a gap in the middle between the <th> and <td>. What I wanted is:

----------------------------------------------
: grey :
-----------------------------------------------

The code is shown below:

echo'<tr bgcolor=&quot;#CCCCCC&quot; rules=&quot;none&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; bordercolor=&quot;#999999&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot;><th align=&quot;left&quot;>'.$name.'</th>';
echo'<form name=&quot;type&quot; action=&quot;checkoutscript.php&quot; METHOD=POST>';
echo'<td align=&quot;right&quot; ><input type=&quot;hidden&quot; name=&quot;sel_item_id&quot; value=&quot;'.$i.'&quot;><input type=&quot;image&quot; src=&quot;\\graphics/basketbutton3.gif&quot; name=&quot;cproc&quot;></td></tr>';
echo'</form>';

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Any help would be greatly apprecaited.

Thanks

Dan

Put this: cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; bordercolor=&quot;#999999&quot; in your table tag. Put your form tags before and after your table tag - that will get rid of the gap between rows.

There's always a better way. The fun is trying to find it!
