    Give your table a class like "myTable":

    <table class="myTable">

    Then use some css to style the <td> cells:

    .myTable td {

    font-size: 18px;

    }

    This assumes you know about applying classes to elements and styling them with css, maybe.

    Does you table have headers?

    Browsers style <th> tags differently because they are headers.

    Does your table contain any other HTML tags like <h1>, <h2> or <p> tags?  Those will all be styled differently by browsers, too.

    Without seeing your Code, it's hard to guess what may be going on.

    I'm not a coder at all.  I buy templates and use what i need and delete rest.  I have 3 tables on three different pages.  I insert table then put pictures and text in cells.  Here is some code I copied down:

    <section id="content">

           <div class="back-menu-line"></div>

            <div align="center">

              <table width="1153" border="1">

                <tr>

                  <td width="288" height="36"><div align="center"></div></td>

                  <td width="288"><div align="center"></div></td>

                  <td width="288"><div align="center"></div></td>

                  <td width="288"><div align="center"></div></td>

                </tr>

                <tr>

                  <td width="288"><p> </p>

                  <p> </p></td>

                  <td width="288"><p> </p></td>

                  <td width="288"><p> </p></td>

                  <td width="288"><p> </p></td>

                </tr>

                <tr>

    <I'm not a coder at all.>

    Yes, that's evident by the structure & errors.   Use the code validation tool below to see what I mean.

    HTML - http://validator.w3.org/

    If this is for a web site, DW is probably not the right tool for you.   DW is aimed at people who want to work with code.   I think you should try Adobe Muse.  MU is aimed at non-coders who like working with a layout canvas and visual interface.

    See what you can create with Muse |
