Table Ledge Feature

Hi everyone:

I remember a while back stumbling onto a feature called a "ledge" (not sure
of the name) that added a cell to the top of a table. Seemed to be
predefined size and perfect for menus and such and did not contain the same
border as the table. I can't seem to find the feature now in FP and was
wondering if anyone can point me in the correct direction.

Thanks so much -- Cathy

Are you sure it was called "ledge"? Sounds like "caption" to me.

I believe it's similar to a caption in function but does not have the border
that the table contains (in my site the table contains a border). I believe
the function was called a "ledge" but perhaps it was named something else.
Sorry I know I'm not much help. I'm really just trying to create a
borderless cell above a table to put links. Also, don't want a big space
between the text and the table - want it to sit "on-top" of the table.

I appreciate your response.

Thanks again - Kathy

One solution is to just insert another table above the current table with no borders, etc.

Kathy,

If your table code looks similar to this:

<table border="1">
<caption>Caption</caption>
<tr>
<td>One</td>
<td>Two</td>
<td>Three</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>One</td>
<td>Two</td>
<td>Three</td>
</tr>
</table>

The caption should automatically _not_ have a border. Have you tried that
yet? Can you provide us with a link to your page?
