| Tables Not Rendering Correctly in Netscape Do you have a webpage with a table that just will not render correctly in the Netscape browser? Don't give up! Here are some suggestions.
First, make sure that EVERY tag related to a table has a closing tag. For every <TR>, have a </TR>. For every <TD>, make sure there's a </TD>. And please make sure there's a </TABLE> for every <TABLE>. Internet Explorer is very forgiving when it comes to rendering tables; Netscape is much more finicky with the syntax.
Secondly, if an empty table cell is not appearing in Netscape and it is showing up in Internet Explorer, you need to put something in said table cell. I recommend a non-breaking space, which is an ampersand, the characters "nbsp" (without quotes), and a semicolon. By adding this non-breaking space inside table cells, Netscape should draw the empty cell correctly.
