I use a heavily-modified version of the EveryAuction.pl cgi script and want to include a customer header. I currently have some html that is embedded within the script used as a header. It's the same html that I'm using as a template for the rest of my site. However, the html in the cgi header doesn't look the same as the rest of the pages which were designed using a html editor. Here's the html header code:
<TABLE WIDTH="93%" BORDER="0" CELLSPACING="0" CELLPADDING="0"> <TR> <TD WIDTH="38">&nbsp;</TD> <TD BGCOLOR="#000066" WIDTH="16">&nbsp;</TD> <TD WIDTH="600">&nbsp;</TD> </TR> <TR> <TD BGCOLOR="#000066" WIDTH="38" HEIGHT="16">&nbsp;</TD> <TD BGCOLOR="#000066" HEIGHT="16" WIDTH="16">&nbsp;</TD> <TD BGCOLOR="#000066" HEIGHT="16" WIDTH="600">&nbsp;</TD> </TR> <TR> <TD WIDTH="38" BGCOLOR="#ffffff">&nbsp;</TD> <TD BGCOLOR="#000066" WIDTH="16">&nbsp;</TD> <TD VALIGN="TOP" ALIGN="CENTER" WIDTH="600">&nbsp;<TABLE WIDTH="60 +0" BORDER="0" CELLSPACING="0" CELLPADDING="0">
How can I tweak the code for consistency?
