tables - green borders? blue borders? yikes

[DianaH]

Ok ... I seem to have activated something with my borders ... and it
certainly wasn't anything I did knowingly.

The cells with these borders won't let me resize them. It's making me
crazy.
What have I done.

After I find the answer ... I'd like to take advantage of the features that
appear to accompany these tables, but I want to be able to control them
first ... help please ... and thanks. Diana

I'd be interested to see the URL

My guess is that that you have a table with a spec like border=n where n>0
and border-color="green" (or similar syntax). As you say, it wasn't
deliberate, but changing the HTML woudl coorect it

I am an amateur, but I could possibty help f I could see the HTML. (So maybe
could others/)

Hi Trevor,
Hmmm ... I worded that wrong. It's not the actual colour of the border
that I'm getting ... it's a sort-of popup border that displays when I cursor
over it while in Frontpage. The page isn't published yet, or I'd send you to
it. In preview it's fine (except that I can't resize to what I want).
There's a sizing box that shows up when I click the table with this behaviour
.... I click the box and I choose ... change width or heigth ... whichever,
and so, I change it, but it has no affect. It then displays (in the little
white box), the size that it was and the size that I entered to change it ...
but there's no evidence of it effecting a change. It's rather frustrating.
I ended up pasting other table cells from another page (one that I could
resize) into that table. I'd sure like to know what's going on.

Does this make any sense now?

Post the code from the page here, or publish thepage (in a folder on its
own) and post a link to it.

Are you working with a Layout Table?
