Note: The default style for all tables is to have borders. To turn borders off, select table in the Path: at the bottom of the Page Editor in OmniUpdate and then select No Borders from the Styles pulldown.
Table and Table Cell Widths
Tables should not contain fixed widths, either in their table <table> tag itself, or in the table cell <td> tag. It is okay to have a percentage of width set to the table cell <td> tag. Ex: <td width="50%">.
Forcing a width is not necessary and a table without any widths set will automatically accommodate and expand based on the content within. Forcing a width creates issues with the right hand column overlapping in Internet Explorer.
Using a Table for a Photo with Caption
To properly display a photo with a caption, the best way to do this currently is to put the photo and caption in a 1 column by 1 row table with a width equal to that of your image (say, 250 pixels if your image is 250 pixels wide). Setting this width in pixels on the table will help to retain the width when viewing in various browsers and having a caption.
After creating this table, add your image and caption to the table.
Removing Borders on Tables
Example: To display a photo with a caption without a border.
All tables default to having a border. Therefore, to remove the border, in the bottom of the Page Editor window, you'll see "Path:".
Select the table in the page you'd like not to have borders, then select "table" in the "Path: table"
From the Styles pull-down menu, select one of the No border options.
Aligning Tables Left or Right
After creating your table...
As above, select the table in the page you'd like to align.
In the Path location of the window, select "table": "Path: Table"
From the Styles pull-down menu, select one of the left or right aligned options (including the No borders as an option).
