Tables
In HTML a Table allows advanced page layout. With a
table you are able to split a part of the page content into several columns
and/or rows. See the sample site provided with SiteGenWiz installation for some
examples where tables are useful. In HTML, tables are often used as
transparent (invisible) tables for layout purposes: See chapter
transparent tables below.

Use these entries:
- Table: insert a table or edit settings for a table
- Table Row: insert or delete a table row or edit
its settings
- Table Column: insert or delete a table column or
edit its settings
- Table Cell: edit settings for the selected table
cells
Transparent tables
Transparent tables have border width set to 0. This makes it
possible to split a part of the page into sections without seeing the table used
to achieve the layout - e.g. the header of this manual uses a table to position
the text and images (first column contains
'Build with Enersoft SiteGenWiz Platinum', second 'Enersoft SiteGenWiz
Internet Site Builder and the third one contains the Enersoft image).
Tips when working with transparent tables:
- While editing, select a border width of 1 to see the table and set it to
zero when finished. This way it's easier to edit the table and its content
(set this option in dialog table).
- For transparent tables you may want to set cell padding to 0
because you don't need cells to be padded when there's no border (set this
option in dialog table).
- Consider to define table width in % and not in pixels - e.g. the table in
the header of this manual uses a width of 100% (so the whole width of the
header is used no matter of the dimensions of the browser window. This way you
make sure, that an image that should be at the right margin always is placed
there).
