Rounded tables that aren't images? | WPDFD.com Forums http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/graphics/rounded_tables_that_arent_images/ A Graphics forum thread at WPDFD.com en-us 08/19/04, 232 17 2004 2004:%i:1092932229 12:17:09 06/07/13, 158 58 2013 2013:%i:1370591935 03:58:55 http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss NineLabs Framework Feed Generator sitemaster@wpdfd.com sitemaster@wpdfd.com Kkyrik said: http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/graphics/rounded_tables_that_arent_images/#p1202
Can anyone tell me how to get a rounded
rectangular table onto a page in html format?

If I do a gif or jpg in Photoshop then the text
is lousy plus it takes a long time to load.

I hand code my html, is that the problem? Is that
maybe a function of some software, like
Dreamweaver?

I have the url of an example of what I'm talking
about but it's not mine, so I don't know if it's alright
to post it. But if it is okay, I'll be happy to provide it...

Thanks!

Kelly

the top and bottom rows are very thin, as are the left and right-most columns.

the four cells on the corners are filled with quarter-round corner images.

The other four cells on the outside edges are straight -- but they might optimally be made expandable by making them background images instead of ordinary image.

The center cell of course is filled with ordinary text.

I did a rudimentary version of that with big, fat
corners to start with, but now I have a stupid question.

Sometimes I can get rid of the white space between
cells and sometimes not. I thought it was about
cellspacing=0 but that's not working.

Can someone tell me what I'm missing?

Thx,

You'll be able to do it with CSS 3 I believe but its not implimented yet.

Layers that are curvy objects.... and not squares...
until then you use tables with little corner piece images that are curved....CSS 3

just make a rectangle with curved corners in photoshop and use the slices tool on the corners--make them the same size though--make everything minus the corners text only space with color then export for web.
