One Tip a Day

Presently doing an html mockup, I am using to some extent html tables (which I should not as a presentation tool, but for a mockup, and in particular for forms with large amounts of fields, I still find it way faster than tableless html).

I found out a couple of tips to replace html attributes with proper css:

To prevent word wrapping with css:

table td{
white-space: nowrap;
}

to replace the html attribute “cell-spacing” in css:

table {
border-spacing: 0px;
}

To merge borders of neighbour cells:

table {
border-collapse:collapse;
}
