html5 ready code
Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Feb 07.2019

Within an old webpage I find the current <table> declarations:

[code]
<table border=”0″ cellpadding=”0″ cellspacing=”0″>
</table>
[/code]

And off course, my Visual Studio complains:

[list]

  • [*]

    border is an obsolete element


  • [*]

    cellpadding is an invalid attribute in html5


  • [*]

    cellspacing is an invalid attribute in html5


    • [/list]

    I’m wondering, how do I fix this? I guess by defining a class in css? And if so… how?

    ...is very useful for general coding information and instruction.

    For your problem, in particular though, go here...

    @NogDogFeb 07.2019 — Yes, use CSS to control visual presentation, not HTML. Staying with MDN, here's an article on table-related CSS: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/CSS/Styling_boxes/Styling_tables

    @LearnTheNewFeb 12.2019 — Hi, @fysicus you must give the values for the cellpadding and cellspacing unless it will show error.

    **[color=#069]you must give the values for the cellpadding and


    cellspacing unless it will show error.[/color]    **

    That is absolute nonsense. ?

    Those two attributes have been deprecated since 1997

    when HTML 4 was released and should not be used.
