Remove cell border in HTML mail in Outlook 2013 - email

I'm trying to remove three cell borders from a table in a HTML mail. My current situation is like this:

So far I've tried it by setting the border color to the background color of the cell but with no luck. Hiding the border with border-bottom-style:hidden did also not work.
Even more confusing is that when I add border-left-color:#F0F0F0 into <td class="td-left-column" style="width:50px;"></td> the left border disappears. When I try to do this for the right border though, it doesn't work.
I've set up a fiddle right here: https://jsfiddle.net/Lk6bf5mm/3/
The problem is that if it looks good in the fiddle, it doesn't mean it will look the same in Outlook.
Thanks for any help.


One issue that may be causing your problem is that Outlook is stripping your section out from your email. Make sure to add all CSS inline into the elements. Try setting the border to 0 and then use inline css to style the border on individual elements:
<table border="1">
Outlook 2013 uses Word to display HTML which has different rules. You can read more about what HTML and CSS is allowed here:

Is it possible to generate custom configuration of table using tinymce?

A table of two raw by tinymce:
<table style="width: 100%;" border="1">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="width: 33.3333%;"></td>
<td style="width: 33.3333%;"></td>
<td style="width: 33.3333%;"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="width: 33.3333%;"></td>
<td style="width: 33.3333%;"></td>
<td style="width: 33.3333%;"></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
I can add new class and attributes and reform this default table structure. But is it possible to add etc? for example I want to generate the following bootstrap table:
<table style="width: 100%;" class="table table-bordered">
<thead>
<tr>
<th style="width: 33.3333%;"></th>
<th style="width: 33.3333%;"></th>
<th style="width: 33.3333%;"></th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="width: 33.3333%;"></td>
<td style="width: 33.3333%;"></td>
<td style="width: 33.3333%;"></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
I can add this class 'table table-bordered'. I can't add <thead>,<th>. I read the documentation of tinymce and googling for 2 days. Know I have come to a conclusion - I will stop if it is actually not possible. Any help is appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Perl XML::LibXML XPath 2.0 to XPath 1.0

I have the following XPath that works fine in XPath 2.0 (as tested in OxygenXML):
//h2[a[#id='start']]/following-sibling::*[not(preceding-sibling::*[self::div[#id='end']])]
but I'm getting different results when I use it with LibXML findnodes():
my #nodes = $source_doc->findnodes('//h2[a[#id="start"]]/following-sibling::*[not(preceding-sibling::*[self::div[#id="end"]])]');
After checking the LibXML documentation, it seems that LibXML supports XPath 1.0 only. How would I go about changing my XPath to something that works with XPath 1.0? Is it even possible to create a compatible path like this in XPath 1.0?
Since I've been asked to provide, I'm updating the post to include my sample data and the output I'm getting when I run the XPath I entered above:

Here's the output using the XPath given above:
<div class="decode_navigation">
<p>These instructions are under the top-level.</p>
</div>
Just to clarify, the output should include all of the divs in the sample HTML, about 400 lines in total.
I've also tried the XPath suggestions I've been given below, but they produced the same results.
Edit: Here's my code:
use strict;
use warnings;
use feature 'say';
use XML::LibXML;
my $encoding_index_file = q(C:\path\to\testfile.html);
my $source_doc = XML::LibXML->load_html(
location => $encoding_index_file,
recover => 1,
suppress_errors => 1,
);
my ($node) = $source_doc->findnodes('//h2[a[#id="start"]]/following-sibling::*[not(preceding-sibling::div[#id="end"])]');
say $node->toString;

Not only does that XPath conform to XPath 1.0, it works correctly in XML::LibXML.
use strict;
use warnings qw( all );
use feature qw( say );
use XML::LibXML qw( );
my $doc = XML::LibXML->new->parse_html_string(<<'__EOS__');
<html>
<h2><a id="start">Foo</a></h2>
<div id="pre1"><img></div>
<div id="pre2"><img></div>
<div id="end"><img></div>
<div id="post1"><img></div>
<div id="post2"><img></div>
</html>
__EOS__
# Select all the siblings of the starting h2 element that follow
# it and don't have <div id="end"/> as a preceding sibling.
for my $node ($doc->findnodes('//h2[a[#id="start"]]/following-sibling::*[not(preceding-sibling::*[self::div[#id="end"]])]')) {
my $name = $node->nodeName;
my $id = $node->getAttribute('id');
say $id ? sprintf("%s#%s", $name, $id) : $name;
}
Output:
div#pre1
div#pre2
div#end
By the way,
//h2[a[#id="start"]]/following-sibling::*[not(preceding-sibling::*[self::div[#id="end"]])]
is a weird way of writing
//h2[a[#id="start"]]/following-sibling::*[not(preceding-sibling::div[#id="end"])]
Maybe you wanted
//h2[a[#id="start"]]/following-sibling::*[not(self::div[#id="end"] or preceding-sibling::div[#id="end"])]
That would produce the following output:
div#pre1
div#pre2

I managed to get to the bottom of what was causing the problem: Every sibling found by the XPath is handled by LibXML as a separate node, so I needed to assign them to an array, not a simple scalar as I was doing. The not-weird XPath suggested by ikegami was also better than the one I was using, as mine was doubling up everything in the output.
Here's the code that produces the correct results:
use strict;
use warnings;
use feature 'say';
use XML::LibXML qw( );
my $encoding_index_file = q(C:\path\to\testfile.html);
my $source_doc = XML::LibXML->load_html(
location => $encoding_index_file,
recover => 1,
suppress_errors => 1,
);
my $contents = "";
my #nodes = $source_doc->findnodes('//h2[a[#id="start"]]/following-sibling::[not(preceding-sibling::div[#id="end"])]');
foreach my $node (#nodes) {
my ($str) = $node->toString;
$contents = $contents . $str;
}
print $contents;

iText's XMLWorker: how to set width of <td>'s?

I think this is not working:
<table style="width: 100%; margin-bottom: 10px">
<tr>
<th style="width: 50px">foo</th>
<th style="width: 70px">bar</th>
<th style="width: 80px">qux</th>
<th>obs</th>
</tr>
#foreach (var item in items)
{
<tr>
<td>#item.foo</td>
<td>#item.bar</td>
<td>#item.qux</td>
<td>#item.gloss</td>
</tr>
}
</table>
The columns just end up having a different width from the specified with the style "width: 50px"

What I do select first/second or forth td content with XPath

<table class="attributes">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="label title"><b>scale</b></td>
<td class="value">1/48</td>
<td class="label title"><b>products</b></td>
<td class="value">Plastic kits</td>
</tr>
<tbody>
</table>
Hit a brain block on this one...
Trying to capture specific values within the td's. So the first time around I'll grab the first, then the second and so on...
//table[#class='attributes']/tbody/tr//descendant::td[#class='value']
Gives me all the td values how to select only the 2nd or 3rd.
I've tried:
"//table[#class='attributes']/tbody/tr//descendant::td[#class='value']/td[2]"
With no success.
For example:
$x("//*[#class='attributes']/tbody/tr/td[#class='value']")
finds me
[<td class=​"value">​1/48​</td>​, <td class=​"value">​Plastic kits​</td>​, <td class=​"value">​Limited edition​</td>​, <td class=​"value">​Aircraft​</td>​, <td class=​"value">​Eduard​</td>​, <td class=​"value">​0.5 kg​</td>​]
So then I changed the XPath to:
$x("//*[#class='attributes']/tbody/tr/td[#class='value'][1]")
adding the [1] and what it does is returns
[<td class=​"value">​1/48​</td>​, <td class=​"value">​Limited edition​</td>​, <td class=​"value">​Eduard​</td>​]

To select all of the class='value' td elements beneath the class='attributes' table:
/table[#class='attributes']//td[#class='value']
selects:
<td class="value">1/48</td>
<td class="value">Plastic kits</td>
To select just the second such td:
(/table[#class='attributes']//td[#class='value'])[2]

Switching to jQuery 1.5 breaks a selector

just upgraded to jQuery 1.5 and now it seems the find() has problems with several selctores:
var $AlertColumn = $('[name=TABLE_1] tr').find('.SAPBEXstdData:eq(9), .SAPBEXstdDataOdd:eq(9), td.SAPBEXaggData:eq(9)');
as of 1.5 (and IE7), the thing hangs in IE7 with an error popup after a while that there's a script running forever.
It works perfect in 1.4.2.
ok here comes the code (to the first data row), I have to work on the Alert-Row which is the 9th having those classes used in find():

Try and put input in front of your selector (like input[name=TABLE_1] tr), because it may be that jQuery is looking through every element, including spans, divs, h1s, etc...

$('[name=TABLE_1] tr') seems invalid because TABLE or TBODY don't have any NAME attribute (correct me if I'm wrong).

Two different solutions:
If it ain't broke, don't fix it: stay with jQuery 1.4.2. or...
Rewrite the selector so that it selects more efficiently. Start with $('table[name=TABLE_1] tr'), and use a more specific selector in .find() - perhaps use .children() instead of .find()? Would need to see the actual markup for more specific suggestions.
Edit Your markup is horribly invalid. form is not a valid child of table, name is not a valid attribute of table (as pointed out by #Capsule), you're not using nowrap correctly... I recommend that you familiarize yourself with the W3C Validator and go from there.
