Help,

I have a report that is defaulting to TD {vertical-align: top} and I want/need vertical-align: middle.

The report embeds some chart.jpg files within the row (read sparklines), but the other columns look funny (not in the middle).

I've tried lots of things.... everything I can think of, thus the call for help.

Funny thing is I took the charts and put them in a simple CAR report and everything centers.

When revealing the STYLE settings, the TD {vertical-align: top } is not there???

Thanks,
--wg

ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON probably is in place. That sets everything to vertical align top.

GamP,

Thanks, that fixed my align problem, but now I can't seem to get the table borders to be 1px, as I was with HTMLCSS ON.

I have GRID=ON.

Boy, this is confusing,

I would leave SET HTMLCSS ON, but add CSS styling that hopefully fixes the vertical alignment problem. Try cheating the styling by adding the vertical-align styling AFTER the WebFOCUS report, as in this example:

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
COUNTRY
CAR
MODEL
ON TABLE SET PAGE NOLEAD
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=REPORT, SQUEEZE=ON,
FONT='ARIAL', SIZE=8,
BORDER=1, BORDER-COLOR=SILVER,
$
TYPE=REPORT, COLUMN=CAR, SIZE=20, $
ENDSTYLE
ON TABLE HOLD AS H001 FORMAT HTMTABLE
END
-RUN

-HTMLFORM BEGIN

!IBI.FIL.H001;
<style type="text/css">
TD { vertical-align:middle; }
</style>
-HTMLFORM END

Thanks Francis,

I have tried it "before" but not "after".

I'll try it.

Thanks,

You've made my day.

The reason why this "works" is that, for whatever reason, setting HTMLCSS ON generates TD {vertical-align: top}. Putting TD {vertical-align: middle} after the IBI.FIL overrides the styling that is in the HTMTABLE file. If you view the source, you should see that the first css line is TD {vertical-align: top} - this is the generated one. It is overridden with the styling at the very end.

This is not the best way to do it, but it seems to work.
