Adding padding to a td tag from code behind

304 Contributor
hi,
I wanted to add some padding to a td tag depending on the browser type,
so i tried to do it through the code shown below,

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Dim maincontent2 As HtmlGenericControl
  2. maincontent2 = Page.FindControl("maincontent")
  3. maincontent2.Attributes.Add("onload", "style='padding-left:10px;'")
  4.  
where maincontent is the id of td.

But unfortunately, this code gives me this error : -

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Any idea as to how i could accomplish this task?

I am trying to add some padding to my table; that is, I want to add space between the red outer border and the content within. However, setting the "padding : 30px;" within the TABLE area of my CSS doesn't seem to be having any affect. Is there a way to add padding to a table via CSS? I can use <table CELLSPACING=>, but it's a rather coarse way of doing

Hello, I am trying to open a window containing an image and I would like the image to be flush against the window -- i.e. have no padding or border. Can I make this happen with a single call to a window.open function? I would prefer not to create a separate HTML page. So far all I have is the basic var cwin = window.open('images/KJV-THANKS.gif', 'Thanks', 'width=243,height=420,'); cwin.focus();
