I have developed a webpage which contain a dynamically changable table the code i used i shown below :

string dynTable = "";
            dynTable = "<table  ID=\"tablechange\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"2\" border-collapse: collapse\">";
            for (int TableRows = 0; TableRows < finalrow; TableRows++)
            {
                dynTable += "<tr>";
                for (int TableColumns = 0; TableColumns < 5; TableColumns++)
                {
                    if (x <= count) break;
                    dynTable += "<td style=\"color: Black; width: 100px; border-color: #000000; border-style: solid none solid solid;\">"; dynTable += Display[count, 0]; dynTable += "</td>";
                    dynTable += "<td style=\"color: Black; width: 35px; border-style: solid solid solid none; border-color: #000000;\" title=" + Display[count, 2] + " bgcolor=" + Display[count, 1] + ">"; dynTable += ""; dynTable += "</td>";
                    dynTable += "<td style=\"width: 2px\">"; dynTable += "</td>";
                    count++;
                }
                dynTable += "</tr>";
                dynTable += "<tr>";
                dynTable += "<td style=\"height: 2px;\"></td>";
                dynTable += "</tr>";
            }
            dynTable += "</table>";
            Literal1.Text = dynTable;

Do a ViewSource of the page and see what is rendered as a table. Re-check it and accordingly try to look at what is missing?

Apart from anything else this is a messy way to do this. If you are going to push mark-up out at least use a StringBuilder. What you should attempt is to create a Table object. Create TableCells and add them to a TableRow then add the TableRow to the table and push the table out to a PlaceHolder. You can populate the attributes of the Table, Row and Cells as required. What you have above is a mess.

may be because you don't have the border-style in all the td's? and I advice you to use StringBuilder or use asp:Table and add to it dynamically.

Solution 1

for one thing you are missing style=' before border-collapse: collapse at the table tag. I think that might fix it. I put border='1' style='border-collapse: collapse' in the table tag. and the border shows up.
