Firefox displays 3 columns in a table, IE8 only 2 - image

Would love some help here... Firefox displays the last column in the table (an image they click on to edit their email address, it's a link), and IE8 displays nothing for the last column (doesn't even appear to display a column!) I've left out other rows in the table, but similar stuff happens.
Anyone know why?
<table class="profile-display">
<tr>
<td style="text-align: right; color: red;"> Email address: </td>
<td class="profile-content"> <?php echo("$evar"); ?> </td>
<td> <a href="profile_change.php?edit=13"
<img src="../images/writegreen.png" class="profile-edit" alt="Edit"
title="Edit Email Address"
border="0" />
</a>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Your <a> tag is missing its >. That will cause a browser to not recognize the end of the tag until the first > it sees, which is the end of the img tag. Frankly, I'm surprised that Firefox shows the img.
Edit: Other common causes of this problem are missing quotes and misspelled tags.

Office 365 Exchange + Office 365 Outlook: Warning banner is not displaying colours

I'm working on a warning banner to be displayed for our users to warn them not to click the links or attachment in a suspicious email, so that they can be warned about any phishing or spoofing. This is by using the "prepend a disclaimer" rule in exchange online.
I've followed a tutorial on prepending this banner onto an email but Outlook doesn't seem to render the background colours on the table? It just displays the text content only.
Code is here:
<!-- Yellow caution banner -->
<table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 align="left" width="100%">
<tr>
<!-- Remove the next line if you don't want the Yellow bar on the left side -->
<td bgcolor="#ffb900" style="background-color:#ffb900;padding:5pt 2pt 5pt 2pt"></td>
<td width="100%" bgcolor="#fff8e5" cellpadding="7px 6px 7px 15px" style="background-color:#fff8e5; padding:5pt 4pt 5pt 12pt; word-wrap:break-word; font-family:sans-serif">
<div style="color:#222222;">
<span style="color:#222; font-weight:bold;">Caution:</span>
This is an external email and has a suspicious subject or content. Please do not click on any links or download any files unless you know the sender and you are expecting this message. If you are unsure, please contact the IT Helpdesk.
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<br />
I'm trying to get it to look like this:

But I receive this instead.

It doesn't seem to matter whether dark mode is enabled or not. As far as I know, HTML is enabled in outlook.
Thanks in advance for any help with this.
Didn't work to me as well. Try this:
<table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 align="left" width="100%">
<tr>
<!-- Remove the next line if you don't want the Yellow bar on the left
side -->
<td style="background:#ffb900;padding:5pt 2pt 5pt 2pt"></td>
<td width="100%" cellpadding="7px 6px 7px 15px" style="background:#fff8e5;padding:5pt 4pt 5pt 12pt;word-wrap:break-word">
<div style="color:#222222;">
<span style="color:#222; font-size:13px; font-weight:bold;">CAUTION:</span>
<span style="color:#222; font-size:13px;">This email is from an external source. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. When in doubt, contact Nova IT department

Access cell in table and click

I am writing a script to automate certain tasks. I am at a point where I have a table and hyperlinked name written in its second row, first column ([2][1]). I want to access that cell and click on it to go to intended page. Structure of the page looks like this:
<table id="listViewTable" class="listview" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" style="margin-top: 0px;">
<tbody></tbody>
<tbody id="lvTred">
<tr id="1381137000000078119" class="tdout">
<td width="10" data-cid="dummy"></td>
<td class="lvCB" data-cid="dummy"></td>
<td>
<a id="listView_1381137000000078119" class="link" href="/crm/EntityInfo.do?id=1381137000000078119&module=Potentials&relCntId=1381137000000078117" data-params="{"relContactId":"1381137000000078117","module":"Potentials",…id":"1381137000000075541","recordNum":"1","lookback":"true"}" data-cid="detailView"></a>
</td>
I have successfully accessed table with id 'listviewTable' but not able to access cell with id 'listView_1381137000000078119' which is at location [2][1] in table. I did something like this:
cell = table.cell(:id, 'listView_1381137000000078119')
where table is actual table with mentioned id. Can anyone help?
Based on your HTML, there is no <td> tag with an id attribute of listView_1381137000000078119. However, there is an <a> tag with an id attribute of listView_1381137000000078119.
puts b.table.td(:id, 'listView_1381137000000078119').exists?
puts b.table.link(:id, 'listView_1381137000000078119').exists?

Click on deeply nested div in Watir

I am trying to click on checkbox (which represents as ) in Firefox using Watir. I have code left to me from the previous tester, and this code works in Chrome, but not Firefox.
Here is what I have.
Here is the code that leads to this div:
<div class="x-grid3-body" style="width:515px;" id="ext-gen201">
<div class="x-grid3-row x-grid3-row-first" style="width:515px;">
<table class="x-grid3-row-table" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="width:515px;">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="x-grid3-col x-grid3-cell x-grid3-td-0 x-grid3-cell-first " style="width: 158px;" tabindex="0">
<div class="x-grid3-cell-inner x-grid3-col-0 x-unselectable" unselectable="on">Organisation</div>
</td>
<td class="x-grid3-col x-grid3-cell x-grid3-td-1 " style="width: 298px;" tabindex="0">
<div class="x-grid3-cell-inner x-grid3-col-1 x-unselectable" unselectable="on">Catch Software</div>
</td>
<td class="x-grid3-col x-grid3-cell x-grid3-td-scopeCheckColumn x-grid3-cell-last x-grid3-check-col-td" style="width: 53px;" tabindex="0">
<div class="x-grid3-cell-inner x-grid3-col-scopeCheckColumn x-unselectable" unselectable="on">
<div class="x-grid3-check-col x-grid3-cc-scopeCheckColumn"> </div>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
</div>
What I need essentially is to click on this div
<div class="x-grid3-check-col x-grid3-cc-scopeCheckColumn"> </div>
I can't attach screenshots (rating is low), but this div is the checkbox that I need to click.
This piece of code works in Chrome:
#browser.div(:class => 'x-box-inner', :index => 1).table(:class => 'x-grid3-row-table').td(:text => 'Organisation').parent.td(:index => 2)
But in Firefox I can see that Watir is just click on the whole parent div (can see selection appear in browser), not on the checkbox div.
Thank you.
First off, there is only one element in the html you've showed that has the class 'x-grid3-cc-scopeCheckColumn', so is there a reason you can't do:
#browser.td(class: 'x-grid3-cc-scopeCheckColumn').click
If not, you can simplify your element location drastically to get the td you want, since there is only one td that has the text 'Organisation', and .parent would only get the td above it, but it looks like you want the tr tag above that, so perhaps you want:
#browser.td(text: 'Organisation').parent.parent.td(index: 2)
Using an XPath worked for me in Firefox:
#browser.div(:xpath, "//*[#id='ext-gen201']/div/table/tbody/tr/td[3]/div/div").click
I was able to verify it with .flash in place of .click since your div just contains a space and there was nothing to otherwise see.

How to click on the table cell for particular text

The following is the DOM details:
<div id: "abc_440"
<table class = "listtable" >
<tbody>
<tr>
<td id = "someid" >
<td class = 'someclass_item"> This is Text </td>
<td class = 'someclass_button">
< a > Add </a>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
I need to click on 'Add' for particular text at "This is Text". I have to use div with ID (abc_440)to locate the corresponding table as there are may divs with this same dom layout. but index at div ID (for example 440) keeps changing to random number. How do I handle it in general ?
Please help.
I think that what you want to do is very similar to the previous Watir question.
Given that the id is randomly generated, it does not sounds like a good way of finding the link. You will likely need to use the text of the same row.
Assuming that the "This is Text" is unique (as you said you want to find the Add link for it), you can find that td, go to the parent row and then get the link.
b.td(:text => 'This is Text').parent.link.click
If you need to ensure that the text is in the second column, then you can do:
b.trs.find{ |tr|
tr.td.exists? and tr.td(:index => 1).text == 'This is Text'
}.link.click
The tr.td.exists? is added in case some of your rows do not have any tds (example a header row), which would cause an exception when checking the second criteria.
Don't mix quotes in HTML tags. id: doesn't work. <td>s should rarely be empty. The Add button should be a button, not an <a>nchor element. Buttons only work in <form>s.
<form id="abc_440" action='someURI'> <!-- The handler for the button. -->
<table class="listtable">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td id = "someid">
<!-- What goes here? -->
</td>
<td class='someclass_item'>
This is Text
</td>
<td class='someclass_button'>
<button name='add'>Add</button>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</form>
You should be able to find the button through its name attribute, add, and through the form's id attribute, abc_440. Who generates the ids?
Once you have the problem of finding the add button solved, and figuring out where the form's id comes from, please then stop using tables for formatting. There's no need for that. Learn about <form>s, <fieldset>s, <legend>s, and <label>s. I doubt you need the *some_id* part, the text part should probably be a <label>, and you can use CSS to format your <label>s as:
label {
width: 150px;
float: left;
}
fieldset p {
clear: left;
}

knockout 2.0 doesn't work in IE8

This view works well with IE9 and Chrome. However, not with IE8.
When the page is rendered, this is how it looks like:
My HTML (MVC3 View) is as shown below.
<div id="machinedisplay" data-bind="with: selectedMachine" >
<h2><span data-bind="text: MachineDesciption" /></h2>
<!-- ko with: my.vm.machineData -->
<table>
<thead><tr>
<th>Point Name</th><th>Description</th><th>Points Data</th>
</tr></thead>
<tbody data-bind="foreach: Points">
<tr>
<td data-bind="text: PointName()"></td>
<td data-bind="text: PointDesciption()"></td>
<td>
<table style="width:100%;">
<thead><tr>
<th>Name</th><th>Description</th><th>Value</th><th></th>
</tr></thead>
<tbody data-bind="foreach: Params">
<tr>
<td data-bind="text: ParameterName"></td>
<td data-bind="text: ParameterDescription"></td>
<td data-bind="text: StringValue"></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<!-- /ko -->
</div>
Any ideas on IE8 work around?
EDIT:
To illustrate this problem on a simpler model, check out this fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/ericpanorel/nzKvb/
I figured that I am running into problems because I am using the "with" or "if" bindings. I read somewhere that this causes problems with IE8.
I used IE9, and if you use your developer tools to switch from IE9 to IE8, this Fiddle doesn't work properly anymore. This fiddle is actually derived from one of knockout's samples (http://knockoutjs.com/examples/gridEditor.html)
EDIT:
I updated the fiddle... http://jsfiddle.net/nzKvb/20/
It has something to do with short-hand closing of tags inside the nested containerless bindings
<!-- ko if: Allowed-->
<h2>
<span data-bind="text: Dummy"/> <===== This will bomb in IE8
</h2>
The jsFiddle had an extra comma at the end of the array, which IE8 was treating as a null object:
var viewModel = new GiftModel([
{ name: "Tall Hat", price: "39.95"},
{ name: "Long Cloak", price: "120.00"},
{ name: "HK 416", price: "2420.00"}, <-- HERE !!!
]);
ko.applyBindings(viewModel);
The fiddle works fine without the comma:
http://jsfiddle.net/XPMUA/
Not sure if this solves your underlying problem but at least the fiddle is working now :-)
The problem is here because
<!-- ko if: Allowed-->
Older IE versions can be picky about using JavaScript reserved words
for property names.
So you should write 'if'
