Author Style not inherited by TD in Edit mode
Clif Peterson

Problem:

Font size specified in stylesheet for body tag.
When viewing pages in Published or Unpublished, table/td elements inherit the font size.
When editing a page, when the table/td elements are inside the HtmlPlaceholder objects, they do not inherit the font size, thus the content in tables looks different while editing which confuses authors.

The pages have the doctype directive set to:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" >

It makes no difference if I add the loose.dtd or use the scrict structure.

Any ideas on how I can get the normal style inheritance from body to td to be able to cross the HtmlPlaceholder <object /> boundry?

Hi Clif,

did you test this placeholder control:

Excellent.

Once again, Stefan saves the day.

This answer gives me the solution to this question and my other question on getting the scrollHeight of the placeholder object. NRDynHtml.dom.body.scrollHeight - Duh!

Thank you.
