CSS - Problem With Data Table Widths That Expand Beyond The Screen View : Using Css Layout
Hello,
I'm having an interesting dilemma. Hopefully I can get some advice. I have created a site using a 2 column liquid layout. The site is created using CSS. I have tested successfully in both FF & IE (which my client uses). In the content area, there is a data table that is generated dynamically. At times the table consists of many columns. If the table strecthes beyond the screen view (resulting in horizontal scrolling) the container/layout does not stretch with the table. Any thoughts? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated! Below are snippets of code from the css code and html code: CSS Code: body { margin: 0px 20px 0px 20px; background-color: #069; background-image: url(../images/bkgd.gif); font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 70%; color: #036; } #container { width: 100%; margin: 0px auto 0px auto; background-color: #DDD; } ... #content { background-color: #FFF; padding: 20px; margin-left: 190px; } ... #content_main table.data { margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px; border: 1px solid #369; background-color: #FFF; } #content_main table a.nobrdr { border-bottom: none; } #content_main table.data th { height: 20px; color: #E8E8E8; text-align: center; background-color: #369; border: 1px solid #2C537D; text-transform: uppercase; } #content_main table.data td { height: 25px; padding: 3px; border: 1px solid #CCC; vertical-align: top; line-height: 15px; } HTML Code: <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="data" summary="this table displays BDXT selected data"> <tr> <th scope="col" width="5%" nowrap>fund</th> <th scope="col" width="6%" nowrap>bsli</th> <th scope="col" width="4%" nowrap>reg</th> <th scope="col">title</th> <th scope="col" width="9%" nowrap>projcode</th> <th scope="col" width="7%" nowrap>cip</th> <th scope="col" width="4%" nowrap>afc</th> <th scope="col" width="10%" nowrap>avail</th> <th width="10%" nowrap scope="col">oblig</th> <th width="10%" nowrap scope="col">oblig</th> <th width="10%" nowrap scope="col">oblig</th> <th width="10%" nowrap scope="col">oblig</th> <th scope="col" width="10%" nowrap>unoblig</th> <th scope="col" width="5%" nowrap> </th> </tr> <tr> <td scope="row" align="center" nowrap>682A</td> <td align="center" nowrap>1A01A1</td> <td align="center" nowrap>HQ</td> <td>NEXT GENERATION WEATHER RADAR (NEXRAD) </td> <td align="center" nowrap><a href="#">25570427</a></td> <td align="center" nowrap>W020200</td> <td align="center" nowrap>140</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000,000</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000,000</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000,000</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000,000</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000</td> <td align="center" nowrap><a href="#" class="nobrdr"><img src="images/icon_view.gif" alt="view detail" width="15" height="13" border="0"></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td scope="row" align="center" nowrap>682A</td> <td align="center" nowrap>1A01A1</td> <td align="center" nowrap>HQ</td> <td>NEXT GENERATION WEATHER RADAR (NEXRAD)</td> <td align="center" nowrap><a href="#">25570427</a></td> <td align="center" nowrap>W020200</td> <td align="center" nowrap>3J0</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000,000</td> <td align="center" nowrap><a href="#" class="nobrdr"><img src="images/icon_view.gif" alt="view detail" width="15" height="13" border="0"></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td scope="row" align="center" nowrap>682A</td> <td align="center" nowrap>1A01A1</td> <td align="center" nowrap>TC</td> <td>NEXT GENERATION WEATHER RADAR (NEXRAD)</td> <td align="center" nowrap><a href="#">25570427</a></td> <td align="center" nowrap>W020200</td> <td align="center" nowrap>4C0</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000,000</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000,000</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000,000</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000,000</td> <td align="right" nowrap>000,000</td> <td align="center" nowrap><a href="#" class="nobrdr"><img src="images/icon_view.gif" alt="view detail" width="15" height="13" border="0"></a></td> </tr> </table> Similar TutorialsHello, I'm doing my best to get to grips with designing pages without tables and generally get unstuck when it comes to float and display attributes, and don't get the results I want. I have two div elements which I want to display next to each other. A navigation area goes on the left and the main contents to the right - both contained in a wrapper div: Code: <div id="wrapper"> <div id="nav_cell"> the navigation bits </div> <div id="main_contents"> main contents of webpage </div> </div> I need to try and get the layout sorted without specifying the width of either 'column' because the content is dynamic for each, so restricting the width (in pixels) wouldn't always necessary look right. In my first attempt I had the nav_cell float:left and the main_contents float:right. This mostly gives the desired effect... until the main_contents contains very little data in which case there is huge white space down the middle of the page - the nav_cell way on the left and the rest of it on the right. I tried to specify the width of the main_contents to 100%, but rather than fill the space to the right of the nav_cell it dropped out of the flow and filled the full width under the nav_cell instead of next to it. I toyed with trying to get the two div to display:inline, but that had disasterous consequences. How should I approach this problem. It feels like it should be simple to get two columns of variable width to sit next to each other. I feel absolute/relative positioning has something to do with it but I don't fully understand that either... Thanks in advance. I'm at a loss because I'm not very familiar with css... this page www.centerpointpilates.com/index.html has pricing formatted by line 42 of the code at the very bottom of this post, printed out here by itself: Code: #main #plans { position: relative; float: right; width: 220px; background-color: transparent; border: 1px solid #6B9D98; margin: 0px 0px 10px 10px; left: 428px; top: 29px; } I've done something but I'm unaware of what! The text within the div using this now goes off the screen, all the way to the right! Can anyone tell me why? I'm printing the whole css sheet below, the above code is line 42. If I can't figure this out tonight I'm going to just redo the page using tables until I can find what is wrong.

Specifically I need a 2 column layout that is: 1) Cross browser (FireFox and IE 6) 2) BOTH columns to be at least 500px in height, but if the content in the right column expands beyond that height... .then I want both columns to expand, not just the right or content containing column, but BOTH columns to expand Here's where I'm at now: http://www.alexwenttochina.info/template.php you can see that when the content overflows... neither the left nor right column expand. Arrrrrgggghhhhh My current CSS for the sample site is: body{ background: #32331c; } #wrapper { width: 790px; margin: 0 auto; height: 100%; } #left { width: 220px; float: left; height: 500px; background: #a2c4ca; background-image: url(images/peace.gif); /*height: 100%;*/ } .left-container { margin: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; /* IE6 pushes footer down without this */ /* height: 100%; */ } #right { width: 680px; /*width: 80%;*/ background:#cae688; float: left; height: 500px; /*height: 100%;*/ } .right-container { margin: 20px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; /* IE6 pushes footer down without this */ } .clear { clear: left; } Any help would GREATLY be appreciated!! I can't tell you how frustrating CSS is. Every piece of code I see has as many work-arounds as it does actual style coding. Tags mean nothing because you never know if it works or doesn't, or how it works. It shouldn't be this difficult, you can tell it was piece-mealed together and every browser has it's own way of doing things. Thanks Vmuisc Code: <table style="width:90%;"> <tr> <td> Text goes here </td> <td> Text 2 goes here </td> </tr> </table> The problem is that since I say width:90%, the second td is all the way to the right of my table. The width of the first table depends on the length of the text to be inserted. How can I have the text for the second td show up just to the right of where the 1st td ends? I'd like to do this without having to specify a fixed with in the first td. Hi, I'm an amateur web designer, so I imagine my problem is probably something infantile to you all, but perhaps not. I've got a page layout that includes three vertical content areas. One is a left menu bar, the middle is content, and the right is a Google Adsense banner add. My problem is that I've got the main content div position set to relative in CSS, but if the content doesn't extend past 600px then then Google banner expands out over my layout. I thought it was as simple as setting the right_content area, where the banner resides, to relative as well, but that starts the banner wherever the main content area ends... way down on the page. I also considered just setting the main content area to 600px tall, and if content goes beyond that then it will expand the layout because it's set to relative position.... but that doesn't work in Firefox... the main content ends up expanding out over the layout. Anyway, I'm probably being really stupid about this, but I just can't figure it out. I've attached my html and css... sorry it's so big and messy, I didn't know what you would need. So does anyone use div tags only and no tables at all? Not even for tabular data? I'm having a problem with CSS widths on Firefox. My website, http://www.freefootball.org looks good in IE7 but when I look at it in Firefox, the main div on the left gets pushed down. I'm using a conditional CSS statement to get it working in IE which works well so its the #maincontentdiv that is the problem. My code for the divs in question is below. Any ideas on how to fix this? Code: }#ffsquaread { display: block; width: 270px; text-align: center; float: right; margin-top: 10px; } #ffmaincontent { float: left; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.3em; color: #000000; display: block; } html>body #ffmaincontent { float: left; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.3em; color: #000000; display: block; width: 80%; } I have a simple question that has been driving me insane - I have a very simple website that has a header div, and a table that shows a lot of information (imagine an Excel spreadsheet). The table stretches the website as long as the table is because it simply will not fit on any screen (I think it's about 4200px wide). This is the desired behaviour I want for this table. However, my header div, will only show 100% wide, the width of the screen before it scrolls. I need to extend it beyond the screen to however wide the website has been made from the dynamic table. Please advise, thank you. Hello, Below is css I am trying to get to work and use as a template for a two column , header, and footer layout. I can get by with css, but an not a designer so can't figure out the exact specifics on how to do this. I've looked at many sites, make examples, javascripts included, but either they are to hard to fit into what I am looking for or just cause me to hit my head against the wall. I'm trying to get the left columns background to fill height 100% to the footer. The content's doesn't need it because the wrapper's background act's as its color. Also, if either column's height changes past the screen's height. I need the footer to move down too. Currently, I tested if the left-column and the main content goes past the screen's height it will just go past the footer. This works beacuse the css I have currently is making sure that the footer is always at the bottom. Code: <html > <head> <title>Untitled Page</title> <style type="text/css"> html { overflow-y: scroll; /* forces firefox scrollbar on */ } body { margin: 0; padding: 0; background: #F2F2F2; font: 100% Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; height: 100%; } /* text-align: center; is so that the content will float in the center*/ div.wrapper { position: relative; width: 100%; height: 100%; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 42px; } div.header { position: relative; width: 100%; background-color: blue; border-bottom: 1px solid #CCCCCC; font-size: 1.5em; height: 42px; } div.footer { position: absolute; bottom: 0; width: 100%; background-color: blue; border-bottom: 1px solid #CCCCCC; font-size: 1.5em; height: 42px; } div.wrapper .left { width: 215px; float: left; background: yellow; height: 100%; min-height: 100%; } div.wrapper .right { width:auto; margin-left: 215px; } div.wrapper .tabs { background: green; height: 35px; } div.wrapper .mainContent { } </style> </head> <body> <div id="header" class="header">header</div> <div class="wrapper"> <div id="leftColumn" class="left">left content</div> <div class="right"> <div class="tabs">Tabs go here</div> <div class="mainContent">Main content goes here</div> </div> </div> <div id="footer" class="footer">footer</div> </body> </html> Any help would be appreciated thanks in advance. Risso Hello! I am in need of some help with my css. I know, I am a total newbie but need some help with getting the css working properly. It seems that some parts work for IE and other parts work for Firefox. It seems like my left bar shows differently in IE and Firefox. Furthermore I have checked with IE on Mac and the main body doesn't show correctly either. It is displayed too short, doesn't fill the box. If anyone please could take a look at the code and see if they can help me I would appreciate it. Please anyone help me. You can see the page at: http://www.galakse.no/test/index.php/tscm/news The css is located he http://www.galakse.no/test/design/tscm/stylesheets/tscm.css Any and all help is very much appreciated! Thank you! I'm trying to create a header bar with some navigational links. The basic idea is that I have a little banner image about 400 pixels wide on the left. To the right of it, I have 5 navigational links listed horizontally. I want them to be evenly spaced across the rest of the page, regardless of its width. I could do this with percentages if I had them in a parent element equal to the width of the page minus the width of the image to the left. So basically, I know this isn't actual CSS syntax, but I'm looking for the functional equivalent of saying: #linkContainer{width:100%-400px;} Anybody know a good way to do something like this? This would be easy with a table, but I'm trying to stick to CSS for layout and tables only for tabular data.

Absolutely positioned (AP) elements must be given a top and side value, either right or left. (As a default, if no top value is given, the AP element will begin directly after the last element in the source order of the page. This means, if the sidebars are first element in the #container in the document's source order, they will appear at the top of the #container even without being given a top value. However, if they are moved later in the source order for any reason, they'll need a top value to appear where you desire. 2. Absolutely positioned (AP) elements are taken out of the flow of the document. This means the elements around them don't know they exist and don't account for them when taking up their proper space on the page. Thus, an AP div should only be used as a side column if you are sure the middle #mainContent div will always contain the most content. If either sidebar were to contain more content, that sidebar would run over the bottom of the parent div, and in this case the footer as well, and the sidebar would not appear to be contained. 3. If the above mentioned requirements are met, absolutely positioned sidebars can be an easy way to control the source order of the document. 4. If the source order is changed, the top value should be equal to the height of the header since this will cause the columns to visually meet the header. */ .thrColAbsHdr #header { height: 60px; /* if you're changing the source order of the columns, you'll may want to use a height on the header so that you can give the columns a predictable top value */ background: #DDDDDD; padding: 0 10px 0 20px; /* this padding matches the left alignment of the elements in the divs that appear beneath it.

I've tried this but I obliviously don't know what i'm doing #grass { position:absolute; bottom:100% background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: 0px -0px; } (it's a landscaping website, i want grass on the bottom on the screen) I am having a very strange problem with firefox and different screen resolutions. I have just made a navigation system for a website and tested the links in I.E and F.F - no problems in my screen resolution of 1280 x 1024. I tested it at 800 x 600 and 1024 x 768 and firefox does not change to the hover status when hovering over the link. There are no problems in I.E at the smaller resolutions. Does anyone have any ideas what is causing this problem. After playing around with a few things i discovered that if i change my display from inline to block it works perfectly in firefox at all resolutions - In I.E it causes a step like appearance to the links. Below is the css I am using, I have also added the xhtml at the bottom. Code: #top_button li { margin: 0; display: inline; list-style-type: none; } #top_button a:link, #top_button a:visited { float: left; overflow: hidden; height: 0px; } #top_nav { margin: 0; padding: 0; } #top_button { position: relative; top: 0px; left: 157px; height: 19px; list-style: none; margin: 0; } #t1 a:link, #t1 a:visited { background-image: url(../images/top_nav_home_1.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; padding-top: 19px; width: 47px; } #t1 a:hover, #t1 a.current { background-position: 0px -19px; } #t2 a:link, #t2 a:visited { background-image: url(../images/top_nav_services_1.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; padding-top: 19px; width: 63px } #t2 a:hover, #t2 a.current { background-position: 0px -19px; } #t3 a:link, #t3 a:visited { background-image: url(../images/top_nav_portfolio_1.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; padding-top: 19px; width: 65px; } #t3 a:hover, #t3 a.current { background-position: 0px -19px; } #t4 a:link, #t4 a:visited { background-image: url(../images/top_nav_resources_1.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; padding-top: 19px; width: 72px; } #t4 a:hover, #t4 a.current { background-position: 0px -19px; } #t5 a:link, #t5 a:visited { background-image: url(../images/top_nav_contact_1.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; padding-top: 19px; width: 59px; } #t5 a:hover, #t5 a.current { background-position: 0px -19px; } { xhtml Code: <div id="top_nav"> <ul id="top_button"> <li id="t1"><a class="current" href="/" title="home"></a></li> <li id="t2"><a href="/services" title="services"></a></li> <li id="t3"><a href="/portfolio" title="portfolio"></a></li> <li id="t4"><a href="/resources" title="resources"></a></li> <li id="t5"><a href="/contact" title="contact"></a></li> </ul> </div> I would appreciate any suggestions!

z-index: auto; height: auto; width: auto; left: 170px; top: 20px; } The problem is when a different screen resolution is used the image moves .......... can anyone help please? im trying to make the switch from tables to css. I want to have a table with 2 colums so my css is as follows: Code: #mainbody { width: 800px; border: #8FADB4 1px solid; margin: 0 auto } #left { float: left; position: absolute; width: 325px; background-color: #8FADB4; } #content { float: right; width: 475px; } main body is what the whole code sits in, left is the left column and content is the right column. I then use the following code: Code: <div id="mainbody"> <div id="left"><p>left column</p></div> <div id="content"><p>content section</p></div> </div> the problem is that if i type a lot of content into the content section then the left column does not grow vertically, nor does the main body. How do i change this to act like a table where the column would grow?! thanks Hi all, I'm trying to complete my first table-less layout and I have run into a couple of issues that I haven't been able to solve. In the past I would have done this with tables and would have had no problem. Please help! See my fledgling steps below. Question #1: In Fire Fox I get big gaps between my header div and my main div and my main div and my footer div. This doesn't happen in IE7. What's up with this? Question #2: I would like my content div to expand to 100% of the screen. In the past I could have done this with a height=100% in a <TR> tag. How do I do it with CSS? Thanks a ton! - Andy P.S.
