[DUG] Making a file with a table in it

[John Bird]

It may or may not be the best way to do it, but HTML tables are simple to
do, I have some help ones I generated from code.  Here is an example of the
syntax.  This is a more complex example , as it is actually a table where
each cell contains a link to help topics, but you get the idea.  In this
case I turned the border off (table border=0)

PDF is also a good way.


<BR>Help is available on these topics :
<TABLE>
<table border=0 cellspacing=10>
<!-- Table replaces XREF -->
	<TR>
		<TD><A href="#ADMIN">Administration</A></TD>
		<TD><A href="#ADVANCED">Advanced use</A></TD>
		<TD><A href="#BACKUP">Backup</A></TD>
	</TR>
	<TR>
		<TD><A href="#BCL">BCL</A></TD>
		<TD><A href="#CHANGES">Changes</A></TD>
		<TD><A href="#CHARGING">Charging</A></TD>
	</TR>
....(etc)

	<TR>
		<TD><A href="#BCLXWP">Word-Processor</A></TD>
		<TD><A href="#WHICH MENU">Which Menu</A></TD>
		<TD><A href="#YEAR2000">Year2000</A></TD>
	</TR>
</TABLE>

I've written a program to email timetables to staff at my school. Now I want
the timetables to look good. I want to attach a file to the email that shows
a pretty picture of their timetable. 
I'm wondering about html. Save to disk and attach to email. Where can I read
about producing an html document that'll look like a grid or table? Am I
looking in the wrong direction? Wayne
