Cell Border

Jul 8, 2008 8:15 AM

I have a Dreamweaver page with a table. The border of the table is set at 1. The defined recordset populates the table correctly. However, if there is no data with any cell that respective cell will not show a border. This makes for an unsightly table when one or more cells have null data. Is there a way to force a table border when the cell content is null?

    Insert a non-breaking space ( ).

    And by the way, table cells with null contents only won't show a background
    color OR a border.
