CSS - How To Get Min-height On Table
Hi there,
I would like to give a table a minimum height, since there is a nice command in CSS for this, i tried it, but it doesn't work. Does anyone know how to use this min-height command? Does it only work on DIV or SPAN, what are the restrictions and is it a supported command in mozilla FF and IE? Regards, Sander Similar Tutorials-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, Not exactly sure where to post this question... but: I'm having a bit of trouble keeping a table at a fixed height. What I have is a Small 200x80px table above my an input form. As users type data into the input form, javascript code dynamically updates the contents of the table. I have the table width properly fixed, and the input fields have character limitations... however if a user inputs a lot of capital letters or other wide characters, the table automatically increases in height when the text wraps. It's pretty much necessary that the text wraps for the middle lines of the table, and on the other two lines I have used the javascript to remove wrapping, but I never want the table to grow longer than 80px no matter how much is typed in the fields. Is there a way that I can constrain the table height? Thanks in advance! I'm trying to get a table inside another table which completely fills the parent table, but I cannot get it to work. The simple piece of code illustrates my problem. The red table is inside the blue table but does not cover the entire cell from top to bottom, but only the centre. I want this table to be streched. Obviously height: 100% doesn't work. Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<body>
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
1<br>2<br>3<br>4<br>5<br>
</td>
<td style="background: blue;">
<table style="height: 100%; background: red;">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="vertical-align: bottom">
Test
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</body>
</html>
I have a table and have specified the width successfully but cannot figure out how to make the overall minimum height of the table 100% of the window/frame height. Any way to do this? It seems like I've done it before but can't remember. Thanks in advance. Righto, this should be easy. I want to set the height of a table. I'd rather do it in CSS but i'll use inline stuff if I have to. Here's my attempt, I'm pretty confused about why this doesn't work. Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE> New Document </TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <table height='20px' border=1 style="overflow: auto; height: 20px;"> <tr> <td>Quite a big Val 11</td> <td>62</td> <td>Val 13</td> </tr> <tr> <td class='test'>This cell has a class</td> <td>22</td> <td>23</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Val 11</td> <td>12</td> <td>Val 13</td> </tr> </table> </BODY> </HTML> I've seen this posted before but none of the fixes seem to help. I am using a header table a body table and a footer table. I need the footer to always be at the bottom, and the body table to expand to meet the footer eeven if there is not enough content to push it down. I've managed to force the footer to the bootom fine. The auto expanding body is another issue. here is my syle sheet: BODY { margin-top: 0em; margin-right: 0em; margin-bottom: 0em; margin-left: 0em; } #container { position: relative; min-height: 100%; } #content { position: relative; height: 100%; } #footer { position: absolute; bottom: 0; } Here is my page code: <div id="container"> table width="200" border="1" id="header"> <tr> <td bgcolor="Fuchsia">x</td> </tr> </table> <table width="200" border="1" id="content"> <tr> <td bgcolor="Aqua">y</td> </tr> </table> <table width="200" border="1" id="footer"> <tr> <td bgcolor="Blue">z</td> </tr> </table> </div> Using table height=100% for the body table works fine in IE, but it busts in Netscape and Mozilla. I know I shouldn't be using tables for layout, but hey... the ideal.gif is what I'm looking for, however the code above creates current.gif. the "height: 100%;" in the content div forces it to expand to 100%(the view-window's size) and not just 100% of the remaining space. Any help greatly appreciated. I've set
PHP Code: html, body { height: 100%; } and PHP Code: .fullheight { height: 100%; } I've also set in the html, body all margins to a value of "0" What results is, the table I'm applying .fullheight to extends beyond the bottom of the page about 50 pixels or so when it should've stopped growing when it hit the bottom edge of the viewable area in both NS and IE. Any ideas? Suggestions? I am trying to set up the following table: Code: <form method='post' action='form.php'>
<table border=0 cellpadding='2'>
<tr>
<td><b>First Name: <font color='red'>*</font></b></td>
<td><input type='text' name='f_name' size=45></td>
</tr><tr>
<td><b>Last Name: <font color='red'>*</font></b></td>
<td><input type='text' name='l_name' size=45></td>
</tr><tr>
<td><b>Telephone Number: <font color='red'>*</font></b></td>
<td><input type='text' name='phone' size=45></td>
</tr><tr>
<td><b>Email Address: <font color='red'>*</font></b></a></td>
<td><input type='text' name='email' size=45></td>
</tr><tr>
<td><b>Website:</b></td>
<td><input type='text' name='website' size=45></td>
</tr><tr>
<td><b>Subject: <font color='red'>*</font></b></a></td>
<td><input type='text' name='subject' size=45></td>
</tr><tr>
<td><b>Message: <font color='red'>*</font></b></td>
<td><input type='text' name='message' size=45></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><input type='submit' value='Valuate'></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
The next to last td cell (message) I obviously need the height of this cell to be much higher and wider so people can type a message. However, I have tried td rowspan and colspan all with no results. What am I doing wrong? Hey peeps, my problem is. I have a main table that is 700 px wide and consists of 3 cols and 1 row. Now in the first and last cell i have another table that consists of 1 col and 3 cells. In the Top and bottom cell of both tables i have an image that is 5px wdie * 20px high. In the middle cell i have a 5px wide*1px high background image which tiles in that cell. Now the problem is that the main table will never have a fixed height so i dont know what height to set the cells in the middle. Its sort of a shadow effect i made for my site. I was kind of hoping the there was some way of making the tables height match the height of the cell thats its in. Anyone got any ideas. I figured there would be some css trick i could use? Hope it makes sense. I noticed that in Firefox, setting the height to 100% in the style tag attribute, does not work. See code below: Code:

Can anyone suggest a solution? Hi I've been converting my site to start using CSS and am currently working on a transistional layout. It works perfectly in Firefox, but IE 6 has other ideas. At the moment its a fairly simple table, with a Logo at the top and nav bar, content, and then a footer. I want this to fill 100% of the height of the screen (which its doing), how ever there is a mysterious gap under the nav bar , where by the cell decides not to size to the 151px i have told it to do. Instead it creates a hefty gap (i've colour this gray for clarity). I'm not sure if it's something to do with the way I have handled the Nav bar using a list. The link is http://www.cartagteam.co.uk/xhtml2.php to the page with the problem. Thanks Hi everyone, Please see this page in IE: shawnessy.ca/test.php The height of the top row (not the <TH> row) of the calendar gets messed up. The page looks fine under Firefox. Basically, I grabbed this calendar from my forum, which on its own, looks fine in IE: shawnessy.ca/forum/ Can anyone give me some suggestions as to how to fix this? Hey guys, I'm having some trouble getting a table to stretch to 100% of the browser height. It seems to work in IE but not in netscape. Any suggestions? Here is what I'm doing in headder tag: Code: <style type="text/css">
html,body { height:100%; }
.outer{ height:100%; }
</style>
Then in my code for the table I have this: Code: <table width="808" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" class="outer"> Should I try using a DIV tag instead? Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks! I haven't got this one to work so I thought one of you might will know the answer. See the class, "tdTestNarrow" that I'm having trouble with... Thanks... Code:
<style type="text/css">

http://67.86.83.106:81/homeline/index.php I would like the bottom portion along with the menu cell to resize vertically based on the amount of data but always atleast have the given size it is now. Thanks for the help Hello people I have a silly style-related question I am trying to render a simple HTML table The table has 2 rows on its left column and one cell on its right column (rowspan = 2) What I am trying to do is to cause the top-left cell to have a fixed height, and to give the remaining height to the cell below it (in the same column). This should work no matter how tall is the table Here is my snippet: Code: <html> <body> <table width="100%" border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td width="50" height="45" valign="top" style="padding-right:5px; padding-top:5px;"><img src="graphic.jpg" width="30" height="40" style="border:1px solid red;"></img></td> <td width="99%" rowspan="2" valign="top" style="padding-bottom:5px;">This<br> is<br> the<br> content<br> of<br> the<br> text<br> on<br> the<br> right</td> </tr> <tr> <td width="50" style="padding-bottom:5px;" valign="top">text under photo</td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> The code behaves correctly when viewed in Firefox 1.5 (see attachment screenshot) but when viewed in IE6.0, the top-left cell seems to ignore my height request... any help would be appreciated Hello, I have a situation where I would like to set the height of a table row, but I won't know what the table's total height is. In Firefox, setting the cell is enough to make it work, but in IE, no matter what I set it as, it always wants to increase the size, seemingly to balance it out with the lower (and longer) cell. I hope that's clear! Here's my example: (Also located at http://www.chs.fsu.edu/temp/test-table.html ) <html> <head></head> <body> <table> <tr style="background:blue;"> <td style="height:50px;">Headline</td> <td style="height:500px;" rowspan="2">Nav</td> </tr> <tr style="background:red;"> <td>Body</td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> In this case, I have set Nav to be 500px, but in production this element will not be known until the menu is automatically generated. In Firefox, it works fine and the Body takes up the remaining 450px. But in IE6, Headline somehow gets stretched, and I presume this is because Body does not have an explicit height. Is there any way to fix this while maintaining the structure? Thank you very much for your time! Brian Hi, My client very much likes a website that belongs to their competition. The thing she likes the most is the fact that the content is centered horizontally and vertically in the browser window. The way they (her competition) have constructed the site is to to place all the content inside a table 100% wide and 100% high with the content centered horizontally and vertically using the table's valign and align attributes. However, this isn't very "standards", is it . . . so, does anyone know of a way this same effect (content centered horizontally and vertically in browser window) can be acheived using CSS? Thanks! <div height = 100% doesn't work inside <table> but if i change height = 900px, it works. anyone know how to fix it? see example code below. thx so much <table border = 1> <tr> <td> mesg </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <div style='HEIGHT:100%; WIDTH:100%; OVERFLOW:auto'> <table border=1 width=100%> <tr><td>stuff</td> <td>more stuff</td></tr> <tr><td>stuff</td> <td>msg </div></td></tr> </table> </div> </td></tr> </table> Hi and thanks in advance for any of your help. I need a single colum with several rows, all of which but one have a fixed height. The remaining row/cell should fill the remaining space. I have achieved this in IE6/7/8 with the style "height:100%" attribute but Firefox lets the page scroll of the bottom of the screen. I want the table to be fully visible at all times but with the felxible row/cell collapsing to fit the screen. Code is below with screenshot attached of what I expect to happen (as in IE). Code: <html style="height:100%;"> <body style="height:100%; margin:0;"> <table style="height:100%; width:250px;"> <tr><td style="vertical-align:top; background-color:#eee;">row 1<br />fixed height, some navigation links</td></tr> <tr><td style="height:100%;"><div style="vertical-align:top; height:100%; background-color:#ccc; overflow:auto;">text<br />text<br />text<br />text<br />text<br />text<br />text</div></td></tr> <tr><td style="vertical-align:top; background-color:#eee;">row 3<br />fixed height again, some navigation links</td></tr> <tr><td style="vertical-align:top; background-color:#eee;">row 4<br />fixed height again, some navigation links</td></tr> <tr><td style="vertical-align:top; background-color:#eee;">row 5<br />fixed height again, some navigation links</td></tr> </table> </body> </html> Thanks again for any help or pointers as to where I have gone wrong. I want to set up a table so that error messages appear directly above specific table columns in the form of a div tag with a red background and the same width as the column. To do this I've added a div tag inside the <th> element of the table, with the display property set to 'none'. Code: <th> <nobr>Header Content</nobr> <div id="error_message">Error Message</div> </th> When I want to display an error message above the table I use the following styles on the div tag Code:
background-color: #ffcccc;
width: 100%;
position: relative;
left: 0px;
top: -100px;
z-index: 1;
display: block;
It displays the div tag above the header like I want, but it still stretches the height of the <th> element as if it was still contained inside of it. How do I do this without stretching the cell height? |
