I've updated our company website at www.stasys.co.uk, the layout being
achieved with a table that has 8 pixels of cell spacing. It's fine in IE,
but in Netscape and Opera the cell spacing is not implemented. Anyone know
why?

Hi Carl,

It's in your CSS. Many of your Table tags are the following:
<TABLE style="BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" borderColor=#111111
cellSpacing="8"
cellPadding=0 width="100%" border=0>

You need to either remove the BORDER-COLLAPSE style or modify it to
something like...
style="BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse; border: 8px solid white"
.... which will add your 8 pixel border back.

You'll need to play with this, but it should get you on the right
track. Apparently in all non-IE browsers (Opera, Mozilla, Netscape,
etc), the Border-Collapse style overrights the table cellspacing
option. Since IE is known for being non-standard, I'd suggest getting
this resolved so it works in all browsers.

Hope this helps,

Alex.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

Your Code:<table border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#000080" width="150">Dont see
any cell spacing in there

You could achieve the same effect using <div> only to easily.

div.left{elements}
div.leftchild1{elements}
div.middle{elements}
div.middlechild1{elements}
div.right{elements}
div.rightchild1{elements}

You'll need to use float:left and/or position:absolute as well.
Build your 3 main bodies, then add the childs as desired.
You can then define the divisions more precisely and use as desired
repeatedly.
It's really quite simple once you understand the basics.
As they say, "tables are for tabular data".
Besides, it cleans up the coding.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

I should give more information... on the home page the main table (after the
header section) starts at:

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="8" width="100%"
style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#111111">

<tr>

<td valign="top" width="150" rowspan="2" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">

<!--webbot bot="Include" U-Include="_private/contents_general.htm"
TAG="BODY" startspan -->
