table design

[lardum]

Why is this table splitting cells into 2 rows:

print(&quot;<table border=1 cellpadding=1 cellspacing=0 bordercolor=000000>&quot;

print(&quot;<tr><td widtd=200><b>Date:</B></td><td widtd=50><B>Time:</B></td><td widtd=40><B>Name:</B></td><td widtd=30><B>E-mail:</B></td><td widtd=100><B>Comment:</b></td>&quot;

print(&quot;<tr><td>&quot;
print($rad[&quot;RegDate&quot;]);
print(&quot;</td><td>&quot;
print($rad[&quot;RegTime&quot;]);
print(&quot;</td><td>&quot;
print($rad[&quot;name&quot;]);
print(&quot;</td><td><a href=\&quot;mailto:&quot;
print($rad[&quot;email&quot;]);
print(&quot;\&quot;>&quot;
print($rad[&quot;email&quot;]);
print(&quot;</a></td><td>&quot;
print($rad[&quot;comment&quot;]);
print(&quot;</td></tr>&quot;

Result would be:

Date: Time: Name: E-mail: Comment:

I've been experimenting with td width command but not sucessful. I wanted to set the width throgh percentage but it's not working.

Any ideas?

It's probably because you've consistently misspelled the attribute keyword &quot;width&quot; as &quot;widtd&quot;

This is an HTML question...

First of all, for every

<tr>

, you need a

</tr>

.

Secondly, if you do not want toext to wrap, tell the browser not to wrap the text with

<td nowrap>

. You are not looking at an extra row: you are looking at a wrapped line in a single row.

Your best bet is to use a WYSIWYG HTML editor to create a dummy table. Then use the raw HTML as a guide in your PHP coding.

The format for your variables seems funky.
