The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Trying to trick table layout- need creative help

Asked by bemara57 in JavaScript, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), Hypertext Markup Language (HTML)

I have a real constraint on the content of a web page. It's a page that is templated with a table, and the only control I have is over the content within the <td> cells. What I'm trying to do is achieve a 3 by 3 layout. The problem is that the web page is templated with 1 cell per row. Here's my example:

<html>
<body>
 
<table>
  <tr id="row_1">
    <td>
      Your content goes here...
    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr id="row_2">
    <td>
      Your content goes here...
    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr id="row_3">
    <td>
      Your content goes here...
    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr id="row_4">
    <td>
      Your content goes here...
    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr id="row_5">
    <td>
      Your content goes here...
    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr id="row_6">
    <td>
      Your content goes here...
    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr id="row_7">
    <td>
      Your content goes here...
    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr id="row_8">
    <td>
      Your content goes here...
    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr id="row_9">
    <td>
      Your content goes here...
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>
 
</body>
</html>

This will only give one cell per row, but I'm trying to do 3 cells per row. Can anyone think of a way of making this a 3 by 3 row by ONLY modifying the "Your content goes here..." areas, Javascript and CSS (fortunately I can always rely on the table row id's)? I tried floating the table rows like tr { float: left; }, but it doesn't work for IE, so I was hoping for something more reliable. Start Free Trial
