| Code: |
| table {width: 100%; border-width: 1px; border-style: solid; border-color: #000; border-collapse: collapse}
tr, th, td {empty-cells: show; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px; border-color: #000} |
What CSS are you using

add

thanks, that worked great.
One more thing please.
Can you have a look at http://frost-genealogy.co.uk/...
and tell me if the greyed rows show when you print preview in IE.

is your web server set up weird? whenever i get to the page for the first time in IE, it shows me gobbledigook. and when i tried to view one of your stylesheets in IE, it prompted me to download...(which makes me think that that's the reason why my print preview in IE looked completely unstyled)._________________

Weird. Works fine here with IE6 on Windows 2000. I don't get the grey backgrounds in print preview on the Mac, though.
The table markup could be improved - it needs a summary and the headings should be marked up as table headings, so
| Code: |
| <td><h2>Husband</h2></td> |
ought to be replaced with
| Code: |
| <th>Husband</th> |
then use CSS to style the th to your tastes.
You should indicate the relationship between the table headings and table data, but I've misplaced my link to the best way to do that for screenreaders.

Standard setup.
pages are html 4.01 strict
with 2 stylesheets (screen, print)

I had a look at the response headers. Don't see anything glaringly wrong:
For style.css
| Code: |
|
Accept-Ranges bytes Connection close Content-Length 1489 Content-Type text/css Date Thu, 16 Feb 2006 13:47:10 GMT ETag "32801d-5d1-43f4525c" Explanation OK Http_Version HTTP/1.1 Last-Modified Thu, 16 Feb 2006 10:22:20 GMT Server Apache/1.3.33 (Unix) mod_gzip/1.3.19.1a PHP/4.4.0 mod_perl/1.24 Status_Code 200 |
For edwardfrost.html

I notice it's not using keep-alive for the connections. Does IE get confused if the web server doesn't use persistent connections?
