I'm using a tables on my web page. Having margin-left and margin-top seem to eliminate the spaces, but margin-right doesn't seem to work. What am I missing here?

Since you seem to be getting rid of all margins try
margin: 0;
:)(
Setting a right margin either through "margin-right" or "margin" doesn't seem to be well-supported. Although if you tried it and it didn't work, then you've already determined that. :)
Great...
Which browsers after ie5.5 and netscape 6 and opera don't support it. I haven;t had any problems with those?Quote:

And you probably won't, but unfortunately not everyone has the very latest browsers. A lot of people are still using NS 4.x. Hell, I still get hits from IE 3.x users.Quote:

Actually, IE 3.x supports font-weight: bold. :)
Really it supports one tag. Thats too funny. I have never bothered to code for ie4. and less. So I really wouldn't know :)Quote:

Hey, guys, I'm currently using the latest browsers, no doubt! Heck, I even have the latest OS (WinXP) and RH Linux 7.2 (although still a newbie)!
The margin: 0 or margin-right: 0 in CSS doesn't seem to work. This is what I got so far:
body { background-color: #ffffff;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
color: #989898;
font-size: 10pt;
margin: 0 }
I doubt this will fix the problem but you never now.
Specify a unit for the margin: margin 0px;
I tried that, isotope, but it still doesn't work. Thanks for trying, though.
Oh well, worth a shot.
Can you post the code in question?
I'm sorry, but what do you mean by "posting the code in question"? Pardon my stupidity. :rolleyes:
Can you give us a link to the page you're having a problem with?
I didn't upload it yet. I'm just going to ignore what I've been trying to accomplish for now and move on. :dodgy:
You don't have to specify units when the value is 0, but I'm thinking that his problem has something to do with the doctype he's using...Quote:

If I understand what he is doing, why doesn't he just add these to the Body?
Code:<body bgcolor="#000000" text="#000000" leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" rightmargin="0" bottom="0">

That's the "old" HTML way of doing things. No doubt, margin:0; is better, but I want to figure out why it's not taking. :)
Well shoot,
I don't want to be doing anything the "old" way, so when you figure it out could you post it :)
Thanks
Chuck
I would like to know to. I use Margin:0 on every site and it works everytime. :)Quote:

How exactly do you use your margin: 0 Maelstrom? Can you tell us how your CSS looks. Do you declare it in the BODY selector? Does it work in all browsers?
In response to everyone, the CSS "new" way to set no margin around the entire page would be like this:
You have to add the padding: 0 as well because of Opera. Opera will leave some padding around the page unless you do that, but Internet Explorer and Mozilla won't.Code:<style type="text/css">
<!--
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
-->
</style>
See colon. I didn't quite realize the Opera problem. But thats cause I don't have that browser to check with.Quote:

body {
margin: 0;
}
:)...Thats for the tip colon. :)
No problem. :) I actually only found that out recently when I was doing some testing in Opera.
