Re: [css-d] clear content after non-floating items?
Yes, thanks! (why didn't I think of that...)

[css-d] Can You Do This?
Hello, Files is here: http://www.linkhomes2000.co.uk/main/calculators/linkmortgagecalcstart_005.php. Am I trying to do something, which can't be done? I'm trying to float the tables td's into place.

Re: [css-d] Can You Do This?
float only works on block display elements, whereas table cells display as table-cell by default. Table cells will naturally appear in a row without needing float. However, what you're doing is forcing float, such that the table cells implicitly become block display elements and lose their table display properties (meaning they return within rows, no longer share heights across rows, etc — to all intents and purposes the table layout is broken). I'm sure what you're trying to do can be done, but float the tables td's into place is vague, in that we don't know what the intent of 'into place' is.

Is it because the width of the 3 td's add up to greater than 100%? I've never heard of floating table cells - not sure why you'd need to.

Le 5 mars 2013 à 22:44, Laura Valentino la...@vidmot.com a écrit : I've never heard of floating table cells - not sure why you'd need to. I've had to do that once, to try to beat some sense in an old-school table-based layout. Luckily it is not online anymore, since replaced by more sensible markup. On the other hand, eventually, one may have the need to reshuffle the table to make it more usable on e.g. small-screen devices, along the lines of this demo (resize browser window to something narrow): http://dbushell.com/demos/tables/rt_05-01-12.html The key in this is to start by resetting all table elements (table, tbody, tr, td) to 'block', for them to loose their 'table-ness'. Then start building. In the case of the OP, his/her table-cells are floating alright, but don't move 'up' as expected (if I understand what is wanted) because the cells are is still contained in a tr which acts as a containing block.

Reply: All I wish to do, is keep all aligned as is, and move everything up... If I understand what you want to do, then changing your table markup might work. I think you only need CSS for colors etc.. Something like this, perhaps? - https://dl.dropbox.com/u/36859227/linkhomes2000.html -- Cordially, David __ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
