Hi,

I am setting up a simple table in my JA Purity II (Joomla v. 2.5) template. The table houses tiles of an image and they are to fit tightly together, i.e., my table should have “0” cellpadding and cellspacing.

However, there seems to be an inherent .css styling in JA Purity II that is overriding my attempts to customize my table. Please take a look:

http://illuminae.info/dflcdemo/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=55&Itemid=643

You’ll note there seems to be a small amount of padding that won’t tighten up, regardless of what I do.

I read in another post that commenting out a line in template.css that reads:

th { font-weight: bold; padding: 5px; text-align: left; }

…might help, but in my case, it didn’t.

I also tried adding a custom class to template.css:

.table_cells {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}

…but that doesn’t seem to work either.

Inline style applied to the table tag (<table style=”border: 0px;” cellpadding=”0″ cellspacing=”0″>) doesn’t work.

So, I’ve made several noble attempts, LOL, so I would be grateful for any help before I go mad.

Many thanks in advance!

You can try this way

Open templates/ja_purity_ii/css/template.css file

from

td { font-size: 100%; padding: 5px; }
change to


td { font-size: 100%; padding: 0px; }

Indeed that worked!

There are several table element tag references in template.css, I just needed to know the right one.

Thanks again!

Because JA Template is using DIV tags and some table, td, dt tr… tags were disabled, you can find them in template.css or you can debug it by firebug and enable table tags.

Or you can send me error link, maybe i can help you out.
