    Exclamation DreamWeaver 8 - rendering issues

    Hey guys,

    Just playing with dreamweaver 8. When i create a table 100% width and height with a background colour of pink for example it doesn't render properly on Internet explorer. You only see a single row in pink, you dont see the whole page in pink. If I add a background image, you don't see it at all.

    If I remove the code on the first line, the DTD, then it works fine.

    HTML Code:
    DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
    What's the deal with the default DTD code?

    Thanks

    It would help if you'd post a link to your page, or else post the source code. Also, you might want to run your page through a validator with the DTD included to see what errors that might find. Fix those, then see how your page renders.

    Hope this helps.

    Re: DWeaver 8 - rendering issues

    Ok, here is the code for a table that is 100% in width and height. When it is rendered thrugh Internet explorer, you will see what I mean.

    HTML Code:
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body {
	margin-left: 0px;
	margin-top: 0px;
	margin-right: 0px;
	margin-bottom: 0px;
}
-->
</style></head>

<body>
<table width="100%" height="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#003366">
  <tr>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
  </tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

    Re: DWeaver 8 - rendering issues

    And if I remove the DTD tags in the code (the first 3 lines) it will render the way it should be.

    HTML Code:
    <head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body {
	margin-left: 0px;
	margin-top: 0px;
	margin-right: 0px;
	margin-bottom: 0px;
}
-->
</style></head>

<body>
<table width="100%" height="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#003366">
  <tr>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
  </tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

    I have no idea - but as the problem disappears when you remove the DTD, then it looks like that's where the problem is.

    You can try removing the height attribute as it is not proper in xhtml 1 transitional, it probably will not fix the problem though. Something tells me it is the css margins but I have nothing to base it on.

    You may want to check out this page and see if it is of help http://www.opera.com/docs/specs/doctype/
