I'm generating a table that displays all links in an email message. Some
may have many links, which creates a very long table. Each link uses a row.
It may take five seconds or more to display this table on a DSL connection.
The fact that there is so much data isn't a problem. Using a table and
waiting five or more seconds to see the results is a problem.
I believe CSS can display each row as it is rendered. This way the table
displays gradually, rather than all at once. Can some one elaborate on this
and how it might be done?
Thanks,
Brett 7 1480

you want to 'see' your email coming in ? i guess it completely depends
on the email client used how things appear when arriving.
anyway, i guess you wont do much with your email until is has arrived
completely.
also: if this is so much information, why dont you zip it and send it as
an attachment ?
sorry no solution and instead only more question,
martin

Use html.
However, many mail handlers may not recognize html, or the user has it
turned off.
You'd be better off mailing one link, which directs the user to a website
that contains the links.
Wich in turn, saves downloading time.
And the recipient will see the message even with html turned off.

No mail program is being used. The email message is saved to a file as HTML
and the links scanned into another file (actually database). These are then
processed via CFMX and output as HTML. Sorry for not being clearer.

Sounds as if you're searching for "table-layout: fixed;".

something stupid to say and say the opposite.
