Expanding the distance between elements on the webpage

Hello there! I am currently working on a website layout and facing a particular issue:

There is a page where some data is loaded dynamically. However, upon initial loading of the page, the item is not displayed correctly. before ajax update

Once the data is updated, the item appears as intended. after ajax update

I am looking for suggestions on how to ensure that the original page looks tidy.

Thank you.

HTML:

<table id="loco-summary" class="no-loco">
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td>
                <span class="selection" style="background-color: rgba(0, 128, 0, 0.35)">Connected: 26</span>
                <span class="selection" style="background-color: rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.35)">Disconnected at station: 10</span>
                <span class="selection" style="background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.35)">Disconnected: 20</span>
            </td>
            <td rowspan="2" class="border-left" style="white-space: nowrap;">
                <span class="selection">Total: 67</span>
                <span class="error-selection" style="background-color: white; color: red;">Errors: 15</span>
            </td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>
                <span class="selection">At the station: 32</span>
                <span class="selection">In depot: 7</span>
                <span class="selection">Off station: 28</span>
            </td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>

Answer №1

It appears that there is an issue with white space within the initial code structure. The white space seems to be missing in the code returned by the ajax call.

To resolve this, you can run the following command:

$("#loco-summary tbody").css("white-space", "nowrap");

Executing this command in the console fixes the problem. I recommend either removing all white space in the loco-summary table or setting the white space using CSS.

Answer №2

A suggestion would be to refrain from using inline styles, but for the sake of consistency with your current code structure, I have made adaptations accordingly.

Below is the revised version of your table:

I have included a defined width for your table

<table id="loco-summary" class="small" style="width: 400px;">
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td>
                <span class="selection" style="background-color: rgba(0, 128, 0, 0.35)">Connected: 26</span>
                <span class="selection" style="background-color: rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.35)">Station Disconnects: 10</span>
                <span class="selection" style="background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.35)">Total Disconnects: 20</span>
            </td>
            <td rowspan="2" class="border-left" style="white-space: nowrap;">
                <span class="selection">Total: 67</span>
                <span class="error-selection" style="background-color: white; color: red;">Errors: 15</span>
            </td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>
                <span class="selection">At Station: 32</span>
                <span class="selection">In Depot: 7</span>
                <span class="selection">Off-station: 28</span>
            </td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>
