    <p>This seems like it should be pretty simple, and everything works as expected in a local HTML example, but something is messing with my code and I can't figure out what it is. </p> <p>At the following dev URL (<a href="http://mountdoracoffeehouse.weebly.com/test.html" rel="nofollow">http://mountdoracoffeehouse.weebly.com/test.html</a>) I have a simple <code>&lt;table&gt;</code> at the very top of the page. This is just to strip it down to the most basic functionality, the real application will be with other <code>&lt;table&gt;</code> elements on the site. The site is built using Weebly's CMS, which unfortunately uses <code>&lt;table&gt;</code>'s to create columns. when you view a Weebly site on a mobile device, they load a mobile stylesheet that sets the <code>&lt;td&gt;</code> elements to <code>display:block</code>, causing them to stack. This is what's not working for me. I am not using Weebly's default mobile stylesheet, and am instead creating my own.</p> <p>So I have the following HTML structure:</p> <pre><code>&lt;table&gt; &lt;tbody&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;This is td 1&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;This is td 2&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/tbody&gt; &lt;/table&gt; </code></pre> <p>...and the following CSS:</p> <pre><code>&lt;style type="text/css"&gt; table { width:100%; table-layout:fixed; } td { width:100%; display:block !important; } &lt;/style&gt; </code></pre> <p>Can anyone mess with the DOM via Inspector and figure out what is getting in the way of this code working? I'm slamming my head on the desk as I type this after hours of frustration.</p> <p>Thanks, ~Nathan</p>

    1. COif `display: block` is screwing things up in weebly's style sheets, why are you using it in your own?

    2. COThat's not the behavior nor function of the `<td>` element. Consecutive `<td>` elements nested in a table row is supposed to stack against each other horizontally (i.e. side by side). You should look into use `<div>` or the likes (non-table elements). In other words, table elements are a poor choice for layouts.

    3. COThe code you provided should stack them, so if they're not stacking then either your CSS isn't being applied, or it's being overridden by other CSS that is being applied later on or is more specific.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
