Applying border presets to an entire table
The simplest way to change the appearance of the borders in a table is to use a border preset. When you apply a border preset, Namo WebEditor changes several border-related attributes of an entire table at once, and also removes any border-related attributes that were previously applied to individual cells. The four available border presets are described below.
Normal
|
Sets the table’s border width to 1 pixel; removes all other border-related HTML attributes from the table; and removes all border-related CSS properties from all cells. Also resets the table’s cell spacing and padding. |
Thin
|
Sets the table’s border width to 1 pixel, dark border color to white, light border color to black, and cell spacing to 0. Removes all border-related CSS properties from the table and all cells. Also resets the table’s cell padding. |
Thick
|
Sets the table’s border width to 1 pixel, dark border color and light border color both to black, and cell spacing to 0. Removes all other border-related HTML attributes and CSS properties from the table and all cells. Also resets the table’s cell padding. |
Hide
|
Sets the table’s cell spacing and padding both to 0. Removes all border-related HTML attributes and CSS properties from the table and all cells. (If no border attributes are specified, browsers hide table borders.) |
To apply a border preset to a table
- Place the insertion point in the table.
- On the Layout menu, go to Border, click the triangle under Border and then click one of the commands: Normal Borders, Thin Borders, Thick Borders, and Hide Borders.
If you have specified a border color or pair of colors for any cell using HTML attributes, applying a border preset to the table will not remove the cell border color(s). Also, if you have specified any border-related CSS properties for the table itself, applying a border preset will not remove those properties.
