TABLE tag based Template problem

Permalink
I created a template based on <table> and everything worked fine until I loaded it in concrete5...
Then these horizontal black stripes appeared. They are black because the <body> color is black if I set <body> color white then the stripes are white.

CSS for all file: I used standard CSS reset code.
/* css reset */
html, body, div, span, applet, object, iframe, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, p,  
blockquote, pre, a, abbr, acronym, address, big, cite, code, del, dfn, em,  
font, img, ns, kbd, q, s, samp, small, strike, strong, sub, sup, tt, var,  
b, u, i, center, dl, dt, dd, ol, ul, li, fieldset, form, label, legend,  
table, caption, tbody, tfoot, thead, tr, th, td { margin: 0; padding: 0;  
border: 0; outline: 0; font-size: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;  
background: transparent; }
body { line-height: 1; }
ol, ul { list-style: none; }
blockquote, q { quotes: none; }
blockquote:before, blockquote:after, q:before, q:after { content: '';  
content: none; }
:focus { outline: 0; }
ins { text-decoration: none; }
Viewing 15 lines of 19 lines. View entire code block.


have anybody any ideas how to get rid of these stripes?
Thanks in advance.


Best regards,

I hate to sound snide but: Don't use tables for layout. Use them for tabular data.

what would be your suggestion for horizontal <div> element centering solution, and one pixel wide image stretching so the images would fill all the width of browser window

If you could provide a link to the site, that would be really helpful.

Off the top of my head, I'm wondering if the reset.css file is being included -- I would double-check your theme template files and make sure that's being pulled in.

Also, you should install Firebug (a free Firefox extension), it is a *very* helpful tool for things like this because it lets you click on elements in the page and inspect them -- it shows you all of the css that's being applied to a particular element and where that style is located in the css files, so you can more easily figure out what's going on.

I cant provide link because it`s localhost based on wamp.
I`m 200% percent sure the CSS is being included...

It`s weird that it shows only horizontal lines in concrete5... If it would show horizontal and vertical lines, it would be more promising to solve this problem...
