Tabbed Table Appearance

HCL Domino Domino Forum

Hi everyone,

I have a form with a tabbed table. When I tried to open the form in IE for the first time, the table header looked very ugly. Then I took a look in the source code of HTML and I saw that Domino put a piece of code in the file to define a style for that table. I conceived a style sheet to overwrite those classes, automatically defined by Domino, in order to make my table to looks pretty.

Now it looks Ok in IE, but in Netscape or Mozilla the table still looks ugly. I thing the problem is the Domino server doesn’t put the style code for the table when render the HTML code for Netscape and Mozilla.

What should I do in order to get the same appearance for all browsers?

Thank you very much.

Write a better stylesheet, perhaps. We can’t do a whole lot to help you, though, if you don’t post the specifics – the HTML you are seeing and the stylesheet you are using. Note that Internet Explorer renders a lot of styling information incorrectly, so when creating styles it is generally better to design for Mozilla (NS6+, Firefox) or one of the very recent releases of Opera (they’ve finally committed to doing things correctly), then add work-arounds for IE’s bad behaviour.

Take a look at the Directory using a browser. If you like the way the tabs look then just copy the style sheet from the Directory.
