HTML Help-Table blues

I'm trying unsuccessfully to display in one line a start date and an end date on my form. I've been trying to do this with tables but it wants to display on two lines. I've tried several col widths, nowrap, multiple cells, and am really frustrated at this point. There is plenty of room to display it so I don't know what the problem is. Please help me. This is my latest table:

<tablewidth="100%"style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Verdana">

<tr>

<tdnowrap="nowrap"style="width: 453px"> View Shipments From<scripttype="text/javascript">DateInput('txtFromDate',true,'MM-dd-yyyy')</script></td>

<td>To<scripttype="text/javascript">DateInput('txtToDate',true,'MM-dd-yyyy')</script></td>

</tr>

</table>

Why use tables? How about:

View Shipments From <script type="text/javascript">DateInput('txtFromDate', true, 'MM-dd-yyyy')</script>, To <script type="text/javascript">DateInput('txtToDate', true, 'MM-dd-yyyy')</script>

I haven't tried this, but i can't see why it shouldn't work. Let me know!

Yours Sincerely

Jens


I'm not sure what your DateInput javascript function does, but what you have there should display 2 columns on 1 row of a table as you would expect. Is this DateInput a javascript calendar component? If so, then it could be causing the symptoms.

HTML Editor in VS.NET? [Resolved, Turnip]

Does VS.NET have some sort of a toolbar that facilitates creation of tables, applying colors and styles, etc. Just like Front Page Express? (I'm just wondering)I don't know Front Page, but it seems that VS doesn't have it, although I might just not see it.

Things seem more geared toward drag-and-drop and editing through property pages in the designer.
VS does have it... when you have the Designer open on a webpage (not the HTML version), you click Table on the menu on the top, and click Insert Table... and set its initial properties.

You can then switch to HTML, type 'style=' inside the table tag, and a 'Build Style...' option will appear, click it, and then you have your style builder.
Ah, I see. I think I'll just stick to the way I do it right now.

Crptcblade: If you haven't seen Front Page Express ever, you ought to stick a turnip inside a rhino's left nostril.

HTML Content Editor

I'm looking to develop a simple content editor as part of an web-based
cms system. It needs to be able to handle tables and graphics in a
non-technical way.

The best I've seen is at http://www.crossbowweb.net/Demo/

Can anyone tell me how I can develop something like this in asp.net?

Pangbourne UKThe short answer from one who's been there is not easily but take a look at
msdn if you're sure that your users will use IE - do a search on 'html
editor' and you'll find some interesting stuff.
