I was curious how one goes about properly creates a table row with
multiple TD cells as a single hyperlink because I have seen examples
of what I think is invalid and poorly conceived HTML. It works only
in Internet Explorer (which is why I comment that I think it's poorly
conceived because a navigation link limited to a specific browser is,
well, stupid?).
I have, for instance, seen where the "a href=..." tag begins outside
the TR and ends outside the end /TR. Similarly, I have seen where the
"a href=..." tag begins outside the first TD and ends outside the last
/TD.
These work in Internet Explorer, but no other browser I've used
(Opera, Firefox, Netscape).
The table row I have in mind contains 9 TD cells. Do I create the "a
href=..." tag within each TD cell, or might there be a valid all
inclusive approach instead of creating 9 hyperlink tags respectively?
Thanks. 3 10942

Both are invalid, according to the specs.

Unsurprising. :-)

Yes.

Only by taking them out of the table. Which if it isn't actually tabular
data, you should do anyway. But I can't judge that without more
information, such as a URL.

Well, I haven't created it yet. :) Yes, it's tabular (it's a
demographics/census table generated via PHP that totals across and
down). In theory I need really make only the first cell of each row a
link since that's the descriptive text but I was wondering about
making anywhere in the row click'able for convenience since I've seen
that with some tables, albeit as mentioned, invalid lest one limits to
Internet Explorer.
Thanks.

Can't be done -- no properly, anyway.
<a> ... </a> can occur inside <td> ... </td> but not the other way
'round.

As the title suggests, I'm trying to make a maze. Specifically, it's a
top-down, 2-d maze, preferably randomly generated, though I'm willing to
forego that particular aspect as this point.
I've done many, many web-searches, but nothing that I've found so far has
provided any clues....

Hi I have a data grid with a hyperlink column. the colum has numbers like
00001,000002, ect. Just wondering how to get the text value of the cell as
tempstring = datagrid.Items(rownumber).Cells.Item(column number).Text
returns a blank string. It seems to work ok for the other columns that are
just regular datagrid columns, not hyperlink types.
Thanks.

Hi there,
I'm using JavaScript to highlight a row or column in a table.
I have created a CSS class that changes the background colour to a light blue and I apply this class to the cells in the selected row/column.
It works great most of the time but sometimes the cell may have an inline style sets background colour to yellow. This, of course, overwrites the background colour in the class that is being used to highlight the cell.
