I am outputting data to a table and I need each character to be the same widrh.
I can't find a monospace font that works.
My style:
Code: Select all
tr.monotext {
font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;
}
Strings with capital letters end up being longer than comparable strings with lower case.
Am I missing something?

Hmmm. It has been changing the text when I enter different fonts in there.
Changed to td and switched them to the cells. Same output, same problem.

I believe text inside of <pre> tags is monospace, and you can set the size with css.

This is a long shot - but do you have Courier New or Courier installed. 100% of systems I've been on do, but you never know...
Real programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand.

That worked, thanks.
