I have been using CMSMS for a while and I was wondering how to get the table borders to show up in my editors, the table gets inserted be even if I put a border in black it does not show.

Have had the same issue with this. Got them visible at last but forgot how. I got there however, if you go to Extensions -> TiniMCE you will find a wealth of settings possibilities and even possibilities to personalise your toolbar etc. I think one of the plugin options is responsible for showing or not showing the tables. Please have a play around with all these features to learn what they might bring for you.

I have looked in the
TinyMCE module settings but cannot find anything in there to show tables, I even added the stylesheet code mentioned from the link:
Code: Select all
.mceItemTable {
/* begin experiment */
border-collapse: separate;
empty-cells: show;
border-spacing: 1px;
padding: 1px;
}
.mceItemTable, .mceItemTable td, .mceItemTable th, .mceItemTable caption, .mceItemVisualAid {
border: 1px double #ff0;
min-width: 0.75em;
}
.mceItemTable, .mceItemTable caption, .mceItemVisualAid {
border: 1px dashed #888;
}
.mceItemTable th {
border: 1px double #eee;
/* end experiment */
}
But still nothing shows for a border, please any further help would be most appreciated.

If you use the default templates, you should check the stylesheets, as the "cleanblueutils" f.e. sets them to NONE by default.

RonnyK, thanks for the further help, I have two themes in my default installation which are default and NCleanGrey which I found in my mysitename.com/admin/themes I looked at both style.css associated to get theme but the only
table refernce I see in the css is:
Code: Select all
table.pagetable {
font-size: 1em;
margin-bottom: 5px;
border: solid 1px #c6c3bd;
width: 97%;
/* sugest - #241*/
border-spacing:0px;
/* end*/
}
which to me looks like it should have a solid 1px border. Is this the tag I should be changing or am I suppose to be looking at a different file altogether?

Ok I think I figure it out, after you add the:
Code: Select all
.mceItemTable {
/* begin experiment */
border-collapse: separate;
empty-cells: show;
border-spacing: 1px;
padding: 1px;
}
.mceItemTable, .mceItemTable td, .mceItemTable th, .mceItemTable caption, .mceItemVisualAid {
border: 1px double #ff0;
min-width: 0.75em;
}
.mceItemTable, .mceItemTable caption, .mceItemVisualAid {
border: 1px dashed #888;
}
.mceItemTable th {
border: 1px double #eee;
/* end experiment */
}
To
Advanced tab: Additions to stylesheet text box...
You have to check the checkbox above (Load stylesheet for content (recommended)) so its off, then the styles will be applied.

I wasnt talking about files, where you should look in. When you use NCleanGrey, then on the CSS-link of the template, under layout->templates, you will see the attached stylesheets. The one called 'ncleanblueutils' has th,tr,td etc inside, which could be taken out to have the tables showing....
