Can someone help me with this Table?

You can see it at wholesalevideogames dot org

Below the 3 dark grey blocks you will see a white strip which is the header for the table and another white strip which is the footer for the table.

In between is supposed to be the middle repeater... middle.png

It is not showing up for some reason. Probably something simple that I'm overlooking.

I use a table layout like this on almost all of my websites and I've never had this problem.

I will send $20 paypal to the first person that can help me fix it.

Thanks

    You have a conflict in the reset.css with regard to tables:

    table, caption, tbody, tfoot, thead, tr, th, td {
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    border: 0;
    outline: 0;
    font-size: 100%;
    vertical-align: baseline;
    background: transparent;
    }

    if you remove all the above code the problem disappears. You need to find out if the above is needed for some application you have installed and whether or not you can safely remove it or if not adjust it somehow. You could ofcourse use a div instead of the nested table you have expanding the box.

        Mkj, I sent you a pm.

        I tried deleting that snippet of code and it altered other parts of the website.

        What do you mean by "use a div instead of the nested table you have expanding the box"?

          It is the td part of the reset.css that is the problem. Try removing just that part so the top of the reset.css file looks like this - without the last td reference:

          html, body, div, span, applet, object, iframe, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, p, blockquote, pre, a, abbr, acronym, address, big, cite, code, del, dfn, em, font, img, ins, kbd, q, s, samp, small, strike, strong, sub, sup, tt, var, b, u, i, center, dl, dt, dd, ol, ul, li, fieldset, form, label, legend, table, caption, tbody, tfoot, thead, tr, th {

          With a bit of luck the rest of your site won't be affected.

          Forget the 'use a div instead' as I checked it and it didn't work.

          I can't reply to pms as I haven't made enough posts.

          No need for any payment...

            That Worked! Thanks, I would have never figured that out. I don't understand css at all. I'm about to send you a pm.
