How apply a style to a TD?

Hello Julian,

I think the most easy way to achieve this is to add an xtd ( read more on w3.org) to the fckstyles.xml. Hope this will help you. Kind regards.

um, I have a similar question (in my case it's a TR), and I do not understand this answer.

I searched on w3.org and XTD, and found a little bit of stuff about setting up extensible information, but that's currently all greek to me.

I'm looking at the wiki docs, and it says I can set up styles on objects, and Table elements and TR elements are supposed to be valid "objects". Then it says when I select the object, I should be able to see the style in the list. How does one select a TR?

Also, when I selected a table, the table specific styles showed up in the list, but I could not seem to CHANGE them.

a correction on my previous note ... when I apply the styles to a table object, it does indeed work - but I have to refresh the wysiwyg view to see it (switch to source view, then switch back, and the new class/styles now appear). Also I had expected the style drop down to reflect the current style/class - it never does.

Because of both those items, no immediate change in visual display, and style drop down not showing current table style, I was fooled into thinking the style application did not work for tables.

I still have my original problem - I cannot SELECT a TR or TD to apply the styles TO.

Hi

I also did found these problems and just now I've found the solution to inmediately apply a class to a table, I've wrote it in https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.p ... tid=543655

With regards to selecting a TR o TD, I don't think that you can select none of them in IE, in firefox you can select TD, but as TR aren't really visible on screen I don't think that you can select them.
The solution would be to create a status bar that shows the current selected element and being able to change the selection from there (like dreamweaver, there are several RFE about this)

Any chance of you posting a URL to one of these RFEs that explains how to create a status bar showing the current selected element?

Many thanks.

You can find them if you search the Feature Request section, this is the first one:

And as you can see there I posted a plugin that creates a status bar.
