Hi guys,

I have a html template I use a lot that I have been adding/removing bits for ages. The output (when viewed in a browser) is just what I need but I think the coding behind it may have become a bit messey. Ive tried to tidy the coding up a bit but im not very good with html tables and everything falls apart. If someone could have a look and remove anything that is not needed (coding)it would be very much appricated.

Code: 
<TABLE align=center border=2>



<TR vAlign=top>

<TD colSpan=2>

<CENTER><BR><FONT size=2><A href="http://feedback.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&amp;userid=top.bargain&amp;ssPa   geName=STRK:ME:UFS" target=_blank><IMG alt=TopBargain src="http://www.topbargain.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/images/Template/Top.BargainLogo.gif" border=0></A> <BR><BR>Purchase With Confidence. <A href="http://feedback.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&amp;userid=top.bargain&amp;ssPa   geName=STRK:ME:UFS"><I>VIEW FEEDBACK.</I></A> A Trusted eBay Power Seller. <A href="http://members.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewUserPage&amp;userid=top.bargain"><IMG src="http://www.topbargain.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/images/Template/aboutme-small.gif" border=0> </A><p></CENTER></FONT></TD></TR>

Huge thanks tom,

I did some editing through notepad + an editor which is what caused all the open tags etc. When I tried to tidy it up everything moved etc. I'll try sticking with just notepad from now on :)

Regarding the lowercase tags, i never knew that. I thought it was always uppercase :)
 
Wow huge thanks for your time and effort RandomTom, much appricated. Coding looking much better. I really do have to read up on HTML as a lot of it goes over my head.

lol @ the 'quick bodge' table extended I did:

Code: 
 font color = "white" ...............

I could'nt/cant see away around that to make the table less thin. I'll look into it :)

If anyone else would like to add/suggest/edit your help is much appricated. Great start RandomTom, thanks!
 
Ive been tweaking RadomToms edit and I can see its a lot better. Only thing I cant fix thoug is the:

Code: 
<li>Money/Postal Orders and Cheques Accepted.<FONT color=white>.................. </font>

Its used to make the table less thin and stop the border becoming to close to the words. I know someone said use CSS to work around it but I cant find out how to implement that.

Only other thing is the border is a bit thick around the headers (Description, Postage, Payment Methods), I ve tried changing the header number eg <h5> but although this changes font size the table dimensions are the same.

Thanks

Richard
