CSS help

[Mutt]

I have a design that comes with a CSS style sheet that styles different tables - my problem is that I want to do a table WITHOUT any styling whatsover but whatever I've tried this table keeps picking up its styling from the style sheet.

i tried adding a new table ID in the style sheet which has no styling

table#nostyle{
}

then table id="nostyle"

but that doesn't do anything.

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr..................

Do you have an IM? I may be able to help. Sounds pretty quick.

You have to explicitly reset (override) all styles there. E.g.:

table#nostyle {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
border: 0;
font-size: 100%;
vertical-align: baseline;
}

you will also have to set the td, tr, dd, etc styles

the stylesheet probably has a default table,td,tr {} setting thats why its taking the values from there.

Needs values in or it will just take them from whatever it sits inside of.

yeah sounds like the table was just targeted like


table { whatever here }

thats the problem with these template sites, most of them have big time amateur errors like this, make working with them a real pain
