Hi all..
I'm building this webpage for a client who only wants tables (no CSS boo!) and I cannot get this page to view correctly in Firefox but it looks fine in IE & Chrome.

www.broadstonemedia.com/offer

If I adjust it to look fine in FF then it looks incorrect in Chrome & IE..

Anyone has fix ideas? It's pretty simple code but I'm not a tables guy, only CSS.

Thanks in advance

its auto margins. * { margin: 0px; } at the top of your css or set margins element by element.

Thanks for the response Dorky...

I tried adding <body leftmargin="0px" topmargin="0px" marginwidth="0px" marginheight="0px"> in under the </head> but that didn't do anything.

I can't use an external Stylesheet on this site so can you explain how I was use this as an inline css code? Where do I place this code?

thanks

<body style='margin: 0px;'> or in any tag that needs adjusted.

Dorky,
Didn't work, it messed up the layout even more.

Why can't you use CSS?
Or external CSS?
Becasue the client is doing you or anyone else no favours with requesting no CSS and having table layouts, in my opinion.

I'd educate them on the advantages of CSS, such as ease of implementation and use, speed, cleanliness, etc. If they don't accept that, grit your teeth and finish it, then get outta there. Tables aren't worth it as long as they're not your ONLY client.

Listen I appreciate your input but the title of the post wasn't "how can I get my client to switch to CSS". I asked for coding help.

Your preaching to the choir here. I fixed the issue but next time when posting, think about what you're responding.
