Hi,
I'm reworking some tables on a page (all presenting similar data) and
want the columns to have a uniform width from table to table as each
table presents basically the same information for each year: http://
vschess.org/results.html
I've looked around the web and run across <colgroup> and <col> but
I'm not sure how to string it together. I do realise that Safari, for
example, doesn't support them... but Firefox and IE do so I figure
it's better than doing nothing!
I not really sure about the 'why' of using <colgroup>... should I do
something like this:
<colgroup>
<col class=”tournament”>
<col class=”date”>
<col class=”players”>
<col class=”section”>
<col class=”section”>
<col class=”section”>
<col class=”section”>
</colgroup>
Or, like this (as the four sections are semantically related):
<colgroup>
<col class=”tournament”>
<col class=”date”>
<col class=”players”>
</colgroup>
<colgroup>
<col class=”section”>
<col class=”section”>
<col class=”section”>
<col class=”section”>
</colgroup>
Any and all help is much appreciated!
Thanks!
