Fix CSS Grid Broken Columns in Samsung Email — Campaign Monitor Guide for Financial Services & Banking
Financial emails carry high-compliance requirements. Layout collapses, overlapping text, or accessibility failures can lead to compliance audits and client confusion. Below is the targeted integration guide to fix CSS Grid Broken Columns inside Samsung Email templates when using Campaign Monitor.
Technical Breakdown
Samsung Email uses the WebKit which lacks support for standard rendering rules. This causes CSS Grid Broken Columns elements to break or collapse when rendering templates.
Campaign Monitor Behaviors
Campaign Monitor wraps custom blocks in dynamic edit tags, which can break the column flow inside Outlook. Ensuring correct class names is essential. Enforce strict WCAG color contrast standards across your statement tables and summary grids to ensure legibility and regulatory compliance.
Remediation Code Block
Always compile grid layouts using standard percentage-width or pixel-width nested tables aligned with the align='left' attribute. This acts as a responsive grid block that floats and adapts naturally to any viewport size. In your Campaign Monitor campaign manager, make sure you configure your links to run via [unsubscribe].
<table role="presentation" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td width="48%" align="left" valign="top" style="padding-bottom:10px;">Col 1</td>
<td width="4%"></td>
<td width="48%" align="left" valign="top" style="padding-bottom:10px;">Col 2</td>
</tr>

How to Deploy inside Campaign Monitor
Copy the fixed VML or table wrapper code block from the remediation box above.
In Campaign Monitor, click the 'Source' button on your selected editable text region, or edit the template code files directly. Ensure you append the 'class="cs-editable"' flag if you need inline editing later.
