Hi
Does Frontpage create layout tables and cells which are cross browser
compatible. ie I like the way is easily creates rounded corner cells
Thanks

The code is pretty compatible with most browsers - yes. You can always go to
http://validator.w3.org/ to check it out to see if there are any problems
with the code.

I am not really familiar with the rounded corners though - unless you are
creating those manually. If you are drawing them - then, no - it is not
compatible
 
The tables that FP creates are completely compatible with all browsers.
It's the operators who then pull and tug on table/cell borders and who merge
and split cells who generate the incompatability.
 
Thanks
So even the layout tables and images that frontpage creates are ok in
firefox and such browsers

Hi
Thanks for the link. I have done the test and everything is ok except this
below But I can't see how to correct it , it looks ok to me.

Error Line 108 column 60: there is no attribute "HEIGHT".
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="760" height="101">
 
If you don't need the height attribute, get rid of it. The new program, uses
styles which is the proper way.

What exactly is the source code for the rounded corners?
 
Create a layout table with rounded corner, then view the code.

I go to Table - Insert Table, but I do not see rounded corner as an option.
I see Cell Padding and cell spacing under layout. Borders and background and
layout tools. I usually created the code myself but if Frontpage did it -
very interesting.

I did a search under help, but only found:
Under Corners, do one or more of the following:
To add a custom image to a corner of a cell, click Use custom image, and
then click Browse to locate the graphic you want to use.
To set width or height of a cell corner, in the Width and Height boxes, type
the value that you want in pixels (pixel: A single unit of measurement that
your computer's display hardware uses to paint images on your screen. These
units, which often appear as tiny dots, compose the pictures displayed by
your screen.).
To add color to a cell corner, click a color from the Color list.
To add color to the border of a cell corner, click a color from the Border
color list.
To apply a corner to the top, bottom, or both top and bottom sides of a
cell, under Apply, click the options that you want.
 
Hi Corey
If you go to the top menu bar select "Table" then "layout tables and cells"
you can create tables with rounded corners. front page creates the corner
images for you.
It this frontpage created code that I wish to know is compatible with all
non IE browsers
Thanks

Yes - until you start fiddling with them, they are. 100% of the browser
compatability problems are caused by operators, not FP.
