Menu in table cell always stretches to 100%

[pooh_]

Hi,

I downloaded the table example menu where there is a menu in the centre. This page works fine. But when I copy and paste the entire code into an existing home page, the menu stretches to 100% of the table width, including the submenu's.

It is an 100% copy of the original sample page, pasted into a xoops theme index.php

Anybody an idea pls?

TIA

Hi,

It's more than likely a CSS problem.

The menu uses tables, divs, td's, tr's and a's to build itself. If you declare any global properties for these HTML objects they will affect the menu.

See if you've got 100% declared for TABLE{} in your CSS

I would like to use the menu to in my XOOPS-installation.

In the style.css the attributes for table are:

Code: Select all

table
{
	width:100%;
	font-size: 13px;
	background-color: #FFFFFF;
}

Is there a quick solution for the menu not to stretch to 100%?
When I change the CSS the whole theme is damaged.

Unfortunately, as the menu is built using tables any Global CSS settings for TABLE will also affect the menu.

My advice is to not use global css properties.

Hope this helps,
Andy
