 the combination of netscape, table cells, and CSS has always been a pain to
deal with. here are my two suggestions, certainly one of them will work for
you.
First, when using a class selector such as:
<td class="mystyle">foo</td>
you will want to be very (very!) redundant with the definition:
<style>
.mystyle {font-size:11px}
TD.mystyle {font-size:11px}
TR TD.mystyle {font-size:11px}
TABLE TR TD.mystyle {font-size:11px}
DIV TABLE TR TD.mystyle {font-size:11px}
</style>
this has always worked for me in NS4, once i found the right combinations.
Second, since netscape has so much trouble with TD's, you could do almost
exactly what you originally planned by using the SPAN element:
<TD><span style="font-size:11px">foo</span></TD>
changing your original template to output this format would be very simple
-- and should work fine for what you need to do. Just dont try to use
background-color here.
good luck,
Marty
