Table Formatting Over-riding Stylesheet

[pcalnan]

Please let me know if this has been addressed in another thread.

I'm having an issue wherein Flare seems to apply "local formatting" to my tables that over-rides the table stylesheet.

Here's my problem...

1. I created a new TableStyle called "notebox". This is in the form of a notebox.css file located in Content/Resources/TableStyles

2. Once I was satisfied with the settings for my new table style, I applied it to a table. All seemed well except that some of the formatting wasn't being applied properly. Specifically, table margins.

3. To trouble shoot this issue, I opened the text editor and found that my code read as follows:

Code: Select all

<table class="TableStyle_notebox" style="margin-left: 0;margin-right: auto;caption-side: top;mc-table-style: url('Resources/TableStyles/notebox.css');" cellspacing="0">

4. Hmmm, I thinks to myself (I do that often)... all that "style=" stuff doesn't look good. So I manually edited the code to read:

Code: Select all

<table class="TableStyle_notebox">

5. Voila! My style sheet was applied and all was well with the world... or so I thought. After adding more content to the topic, I discovered that Flare had re-applied all that "style=" code and my table was no longer looking the way I wanted it to.

Whazzup?

Yep, it's been mentioned numerous times. Here's the latest thread --> http://forums.madcapsoftware.com/viewto ... f=6&t=9367

Yep, loooonnnnggg standing issue. Whenever you use a table style, Flare in its infinite wisdom inserts all this inline style code. Removing it won't hurt anything (and in my experience helps) but if you do anything with the table stylesheet it will reapply that code. (Highly annoying, if you ask me - or even if you don't )

If you don't think Flare should do this, please please PLEASE submit a bug report.
