gday , i have question and i think it involves my tables .. i have a page with several tables in it .. the first is 100% width with a black bg on the first row .. each time the page loads on the web the row does not reach the right side , it stops short about 15px . when i refresh the page from that point the page goes the way it should . ´ any ideas why this happens , i know that refreshing will fix it but viewers would not i spose and even though its a small thing its really frustrating ... any help would be good !!
cheers

You might want to try posting in the programming forum next time...


I'd try setting te page margins in the body tag as well:

<body leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">

Next thing to try would be to specify width in the <td> <tr> tags for that row...

Check how many cells are in that row, and whether they are a specified width. You might want to remove width from individual cells.

aha .. i had specified the table as having width=100% and that particular row is split in two .. each td=50% ... the problem only occurs when the page is first loaded , then if u refresh it once , the column fills out and is complete as normal (or i should say the way i want it ) i'm not that much of a perfectionist but i just have no idead what it is after spending alot of time on it sheisa ...
thanx again phillip
