@javascript7,

@coothead

as I could see no indication of tabular data in your code
snippet,

@javascript7

I thought by providing the TD tags was enough.

<td> is a tag, a structural element, it is not “data”. We can’t tell if you are framing your page with a table or properly (semantically) enclosing data within a table since we cannot see the relevent surrounding code nor the actual contents (the “data”).

If you have not done so, please read our posting guidelines for suggestions about posting code and describing problems:

Forum Posting Basics

When posting a coding question, it’s important to help people to help you. Ideally, post a link to a web page that demonstrates the issue. If that’s not possible (for example, if your site is not live yet) there are various other options. You might, for example, create a working example of the problem on a site like CodePen. You can then paste the link to your Pen here. (If you sign up for a free account at CodePen, your Pen will get embedded right here, like this: http://codepen.io/oknoblich/…

If that doesn’t clarify our needs, then try reading this post that I sent to another member about the same issue:

How to change part of the border color

@Mori, I’m not at all sure what you intended to say because your post didn’t support your assertions, so please let me clarify my 2 points: I looked at your post from the point of view of anyone who might be reading it from newbies through the volunteers here. It rendered quite differently from the image that you posted. Your request for assistance was not commensurate with your years of experience here. Our posting guideline do not ask people to post snippits. We define, demonstrate and …

Finally, allow me to mitigate my stern position, slightly.

When posting in programming categories such as JS and PHP, etc, (not HTML and CSS) one can apparently get by without posting a full working HTML and CSS page (although more info is usually requested by the helper-bee) and most of your posts have been in the programming categories. My area of expertise is HTML and CSS, I do not speak JS or any other programming language so I cannot address the needs of those categories.

To troubleshoot HTML and CSS code, we almost always need to see the structure of the page and relevent code. What is relevent code: the structure refers to the overall framing of the page incuding the doctype and head sections with full URLs to needed resources. It necessarily includes the code of the troublesome area, HTML and CSS code - no raw SCSS, or PHP - JS is interpreted by browsers so it can be included if part of the issue. If you have done a thorough job of narrowing down the cause of the problem, then you will have eliminated some unused CSS and most of the uninvolved HTML from the working page. The code - “working page” - should be validated before posting.

If you are posting here because the above seems like too much work, then you are posting for the wrong reason. We may have to do go through the same routines although it usually takes us less time because of our experience of having done it so many times.

Help us help you. Be clear and complete. Don’t expect us to make the same assumptions that you might make about code.

Putting a dog in a stable does not make it a horse.

Very true and a very appropo analogy - certainly smile-worthy.
