#4762 — Space mistery

Hello again,

does anybody have a clue of what could be the problem in the following 
code :

// calling sequence

<html><body>
<FONT face="Arial Black" size="3" color="#0000FF">
<center>
ATTENZIONE<br></FONT>
</body></html>
<?php
include('tabelle/ATTE/ATTE6/ATTE6.php');
include('tabelle/ATTE/ATTE7/ATTE7.php');
include('tabelle/ATTE/ATTE8/ATTE8.php');
?>


ATTE6, ATTE7 + ATTE8 have a similar code, differing only those parts 
carrying the ID name (ATTEx) i.e. text copied and replaced :


// main progam ATTE8.php

<?php
require('ATTE6init.php'); // initialization of variables
$tab_html = '<center>&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br><table><tr><td><FONT 
face="Arial" size="2">';
echo $tab_html; // if I comment this line, the title touches the table 
above <only God knows why>

$tab_html .= '<span style="background-color: 
#FFFF00">'.$titolo.'</span></FONT></td></tr></table>';
echo $tab_html;

$tab_html = '<table border="1"><tr><td>'.$cross.'</td>';
//echo $tab_html;

for ($j=0; $j < $numcols; $j++) {
	$tab_html .= '<td align="right" bgcolor="#DDDDFF"><b>'.$coltit[$j] . 
'</b></td>'  ;
}
$tab_html .= '</tr>';
echo $tab_html;
//  End titoli di colonna


the symptons are that if one displays more than one table, one after the 
other, as specified in the calling sequence, the space between the title 
and the table is increased by 3 o 4 spaces, while it shouldnt have any 
additional space  (&nbsp;<br>).

The last table however is always displayed correctly, so in the case on 
one single table, there's no perception of this error.

Thanks for any feedback.

John.

Look at your generated html.  If it's what you expected, try an HTML 
newsgroup.  If it isn't, figure out why your PHP code isn't generating 
the HTML you expect.

ROFLMAO!  The troll doesn't like someone who directs a person to a more 
appropriate newsgroup.  Of course, this isn't the first time the troll 
has tried this!

But then what do you expect from an Italian who posts under a pseudonym 
but doesn't even know enough to use English in an English language 
newsgroup.  Fortunately, most Italians aren't that stoopid.

Frankly, your code is a mess. I stopped reading at the point of the cut, where you
write "end body" "end html", and then start your html output script.

It's no use trying to find unexpected spaces in messed up HTML. Clean it up first.
And then verify if at http://validator.w3.org/. And then come back.

This is really a HTML question.

No DTD so browser will render in quirks mode.

end of html document. (Unfortunately browsers do process items after
the </html> element.)

Why have the above table? Why not a H2 element.

No closing table element.

I wanted to 'mark' the text with yellow underground. I thought <H2> only 
change the style but without 'marking'.

I use <table> in this case because it seems the only way to have the 
title where I really want it : just above the table.
Any other solution puts unwanted spaces everywhere else but not where I 
want it.

I am having difficulty with mixed code html + php, but sometimes that is 
the only option available. Unless one uses a template.

Anybody can suggest an easy template to use instead of messing up mith 
mixed code html+php ???

How come ? I have really a 'table' (matrix of numbers) to display and 
THAT is about the ONLY reason left for using  <table> and not <div>. Right ?

it comes later. I didnt write the whole code because I thought the error 
must be in this piece of code.

You will continue having problems until you define the DTD.

You use styles to change that, as you did with your code.

Use the table caption element i.e. 
<table>
<caption style="background-color:#FFFF00;">your caption goes
here</caption>
<tr><td>.....

No need for templates it is just the markup you are using.

The W3C specification deprecated these attributes in HTML 4. While the
browser still 'honor' them you shouldn't.

The styling should be placed within a separate stylesheet, or within
the <head></head> of the current page.

It *does* make it a lot easier to change the design later on, if
needed.

This is not php related so, may I suggest, that you subscribe to a
HTML newsgroup
alt.infosystem.www.authoring.html
alt.html
