Hi, I've got 5 linkbuttons that I'm using as a visual replacement for radio buttons. I want them to expand to the width of their container, but when I lay them out in a table, they overlap due to some issue with the CSS, I assume. Could someone help me fix the CSS so they do not overlap? Here is my code:

<div class="box" id="ReductionsBox" runat="Server">

<div class="boxheader">Reductions</div>

<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">

<tr>

<td><telerik:RadButton ID="NoReductionButton" Text="No Reduction" Checked="True" AutoPostBack="false" Skin="Windows7" ButtonType="LinkButton" GroupName="ReductionType" ToggleType="Radio" Width="100%" runat="server" /></td>

<td><telerik:RadButton ID="PartialWriteOffButton" Text="Reduce Payoff (Write-Off)" AutoPostBack="false" Skin="Windows7" ButtonType="LinkButton" GroupName="ReductionType" ToggleType="Radio" Width="100%" runat="server" /></td>

<td><telerik:RadButton ID="PartialWaiveButton" Text="Reduce Payoff (Waive)" AutoPostBack="false" Skin="Windows7" ButtonType="LinkButton" GroupName="ReductionType" ToggleType="Radio" Width="100%" runat="server" /></td>

<td><telerik:RadButton ID="FullWriteOffButton" Text="Close Case (Write-Off)" AutoPostBack="false" Skin="Windows7" ButtonType="LinkButton" GroupName="ReductionType" ToggleType="Radio" Width="100%" runat="server" /></td>

<td><telerik:RadButton ID="FullWaiveButton" Text="Close Case (Waive)" AutoPostBack="false" Skin="Windows7" ButtonType="LinkButton" GroupName="ReductionType" ToggleType="Radio" Width="100%" runat="server" /></td>

</tr>

</table>

</div>

Hi Chris,

The problem comes form the left and right padding set to the link button in order to have some space around the button text. To fix it, you should overwrite the CSS in the following way:

<%@ Register TagPrefix="telerik" Namespace="Telerik.Web.UI" Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<head runat="server">

<title></title>

<style type="text/css">

a.rbLinkButton

{

padding: 0;

}

</style>

</head>

<body>

<form id="form1" runat="server">

<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">

</asp:ScriptManager>

<div class="box" id="ReductionsBox" runat="Server">

<div class="boxheader">

Reductions</div>

<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">

<tr>

<td>

<telerik:RadButton ID="NoReductionButton" Text="No Reduction" Checked="True" AutoPostBack="false"
