HTML - Can I Left Indent On A Centered Table But Collpase If Table Too Big?
I would like to know if there is such a thing as a tag within a table, that can collapse if the next table within that prior one gets too big to center?
Here is an example of a part of my code: Code: <table style="width:757; border-style:solid; border-width:thin; margin:0 0 15px 0">
<tr><td class="spb-category" width="750" style="text-align:left;" colspan="3">Title of this category</td></tr>
<tr>

<tr><td width="100%" onmouseover="this.style.background='#ddddff';" onmouseout="this.style.background='#ffffff';"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td class="spb-book"><a href="product_info.php?products_id=187">small sized book</a></td></tr><tr><td class="spb-author">Author</td></tr></table></td></tr>

</table> </td>

1. I want to center each column so that the first letter of each book title is lined-up, but that the longest title on each column has equal space on both left and right. 2. If you look at each column, the width is about 245px. With regard to the first book title in the first column, I have 50px that is extra, therefore I'd like to automatically add 25px to the front of each one of the books for that column. 3. On the second column, there is about 80px extra, therefore I'd like to auto-add 40px to the front of each book in that column. My problem is that I don't want the column centered individually because then I will lose the straight line that I'd like each book to be on top of each other as it starts the line. I tried: style="margin-left:20px" and style="padding-left:20px" but when the title got too long it would not auto-collapse the left side, I want it to collapse! I want one tag that I can insert evenly on every section to get the push to the right an even amount of spaces for every book on each column. If it comes down to it, I wouldn't mind sacrificing that each column gets auto aligned to what is necessary for its own column. So if I have to use one number, say 30px, for the whole webpage, then ok, I'd do it. My problem is that sometimes the 30px empty filler space for the left, in order to push the title to the right, is not enough space for a very long title and it winds up sending half the title to the next line, which I don't want. This code is a list of books that spans about 20 categories and about 400 book titles. Thanks in advance for any help you might offer. Similar TutorialsI have a simple table and I want to indent it. Nothing fancy - I'd just like it to be an inch or so from the left side. This is going into an e-mail (Outlook) but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to code it so it will indent the table. Any suggestions? I have the exact same table at the very bottom of this page that is centered in both IE and Firefox... http://www.massagelaunch.com/ but on this page I have the exact same table that IS NOT CENTERED in Firefox...any idea why? http://www.massagelaunch.com/affiliates.html Thanks in advance! How do I make a table with a fixed width stay centered even if the browser window's horizontal size is smaller than the table's horizontal size? align="center" makes the table centered as long as the browser window is bigger than the table. If the browser window is smaller, the table will be cropped on the right size only, not on both size. I would like to do this to have a table with a fixed width and a background image, so that no horizontal scrolling bar appears if the screen resolution if too small for the table. The image should howerver stay centered no matter what the windows size is. Thanks. I'm building my website and I've just noticed that the left bar has suddenly shifted away from the left edge of the screen. I have no idea what I did to cause this and can't seem to fix it. In an attempt to figure out which bit is wrong I have cut back all the rubbish until I'm just left with a basic left aligned table - Code: <html> <body> <table width="90%" border="1" align="left"> <tr> <td> XXX </td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> Now that's pretty simple. can't get much more cut down than that - a left aligned table. The left alignment is working such that the table is to left of centre, but the problem is that (on my system at least) the left edge isn't butted up against the left edge of the browser. So what the heck is the problem? Please help anyone... even though they appear normally aligned and centered from inside DW all my table are aligned left when previewed in a Firefox. It's all good in IE. Have spent half of a day trying to figure it out <table width="527" height="2180" border="1" align="center"> <tr> <td><span class="style23">xxxxx</span></td> </tr> </table> I doubt that this means much but here is one of the tables. If it means something, this started to happen when I had to put a whole book online for one of my customers that had problems downloading it. So, in the process I copy/pasted from Word to DW. I had to do it. I know that these kind of things can sc... everything up so I made sure that I first cleared all the formatting from Word. So, I'm in a pickle now... Greetings from Norway! This is my first post on this forum! I am currently developing my website, and when I checked the page in Firefox, Safari and Chrome it seemed perfectly fine, but when loading it in IE and Opera it looked strange. the page: http://aksjefinans.com/bilde.html In Opera and IE the text in the tables are centered while in the other browsers it is aligned to the left (this is how it should look). Why is the table text centered in IE and Opera? I have looked over my code several times and tried a lot of different moves, but it always ends up like this in IE and Opera. Centered text does not look any good. What should I do to make the page look the same in IE as in firefox? Hope someone could help me! Good day, I am brand new here in this forum. So many knowledgeable folks here. I am relatively new to web design. I typically use templates and themes and tweak them. I can navigate a CSS doc and html to make changes, etc. However, I have a client who has an existing site that she wants to keep the aesthetic of and so I am using what the previous designer left. It is a simple html page with tables. Simple enough. Very elegant visually. No need to SEO really so it works. She has asked if we can make the left column of a two column table scroll independently. The page content is about over 6000px. The scroll column will contain a page outline and other text that will include internal targeted links. This is outside my skill set, but I want to learn. Have searched the net and found some suggestions but want it to be clean and ended up here. There is no style sheet other than the ie6 sheet. Page is he http://www.themedeaproject.com/proposaltestpage.html no graphics are loaded. Can anyone point me to a good tutorial or have any suggestions? Thanks! BlueEyedMonkey aka Tatyanna hi i'm new to htm, infact new to making websites at all. i spent ages writting an intoduction, but some one deleted it. i have started writting my first HTML page : http://normington.superfreehost.org/...age%204.1.html so far it's just some embeded movies from youtube. my first problem is that i want to align text to the left of the video and centered vertically. my second problem is that when i view the page source through mozilla i find some extra text that i cant see if i view the page in wordpad. "<!-- Paste this code into the body section, not the head section of the page --> <script type="text/javascript"><!-- ch_client = "b0redum"; ch_non_contextual = 0; ch_keywords = "tech,free"; ch_linkStyle= "style3"; //--></script> <script src="http://scripts.chitika.net/static/linx/chitika_linx.v3.js" type="text/javascript"> </script> <div id="PaypopupStartCode" style="display:none"> </div> <script language="JavaScript1.1"> if (typeof(paypopupScriptStart) == 'undefined') {var paypopupScriptStart = false;} if (!paypopupScriptStart) { document.write(unescape("%3Cscript")+' src="http://www.bu520.com/popup.php?'+(new Date()).getTime()+'&id=azzamartin&pop=enter&t=1&subid=107931&blk=1&fc=-1"'+unescape("%3E%3C/script%3E")); paypopupScriptStart = true; } </script> <noscript> </noscript>" what does this text do, and how do i move it? any advice about my page would be apprichiated, items to add etc, the next thing i want to do is make a comments page. is this an easy thing? thanks for your help, Normington. Hi All, I have just started my first page and there is a little problem with it that is driving me nuts. Basically, Im trying to make a simple page where the content is centered and there are two background columns on the right and left: we see these pages everywhere. Here is the code (pseudo) I am trying <body> <centered content> <body_divis> <pic> insert picture (top left) <pic> </body_div> </centered content> <body> now im using a css file in which we have: <centetred content> : fix width (1000px), auto left and right margin, gray background. <body_div>: white background. <pic>: 0 margins. So far so good, I get the desired effect: white page in the middle, two side columns in gray. All of this starts at the very top of the page. Now I just want to move the picture slighlty down. As soon as I do that the whole white centered section moves down with it, creating a horizental gray bar on top of the page that is driving me nuts.... it seems that the white section starts where the first object is placed. I just want it to start at the top and then plance my objects wherever. All margins are good in my code as I have checked and rechecked. I appreciate any help. Thanks, Kakeez The table itself is working fine, but the size of each cell is not correct in Firefox. Here is a screenshot of what is happening: http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/1938/tabletroubles.gif Here is the head of my page, the css for the table is he HTML Code:
<style type="text/css">
#cat table {border:0px solid #333333; cell-padding:0; cell-spacing:0; align=center}
#cat tr {align=center}
#cat td {font-size: 13px; font-family=tahoma; font-weight: bold; padding: 0px; border:0px solid #333333; align=center;}

#cat td a:hover {background-color: #333333; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;color: #ffffff; background-image: url(linkbg2.gif); align=center;}

The table on the outside has no content, it is there to make a gray border around everything else. If you look at the table in firefox & internet explorer, you'll see that in IE- the table is much thicker than in firefox. How can i make it so that the table in Firefox will have the same thickness as the one in IE? I could really use some help. Thanks! Here is an image depicting the trouble I'm having: I want to make a table, consisting of many cells. These cells would be fixed, and *very different* in sizes. It's easy to make a no-space table when all the images are exactly the same size, but when you have images with a variety of sizes, the table doesn't fit perfectly. Basically I want to create a collage of images with overlay text on each image. My idea was that I could create a table, and each cell (td) would have a background which is the image. Then I could just type in that cell, so the text would be over the image. Then I'd do this for every one of my images, and a collage would be formed. The problem is, the table makes large white spaces wherever the image sizes don't match! How do I get rid of these spaces, or is there an entirely different code/approach I should be using? Thanks! Here is my current code: HTML Code:
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
table.nospace {
padding: 0; margin: 0;
border-collapse: collapse;
}
table.nospace tr {

I will be brief in hoping that the issue does not require a thesis to properly fix. I'm dealing with tables within tables..within tables. In one instance, I have a 2x1 (row by column) table inside another table. So, we'll call the inside table "B" and the outside table "A". Table B is centered inside a column in Table A. I'm trying to maximize the space, but nearly nothing works. Setting Table B height=100% does nothing. The only thing that works is setting the height=N px, where N is a number. This is no good, as I want to the site to work on all resolutions. I want it to be proportional. How can I fix this? Here's what I'm dealing with, visually: Any help would be welcome. Thanks. I have a list within a table and much of the content has links to two different javascript codes. One is a popup javascript to so that I can control the window size and the other is a toggle.display javascript to show/hide specific details about my list. The scripts run fine, but for some odd reason the content in my table gets cut off randomly towards the end of the list. I went through to make sure that I didn't have any div tags nested.. etc.. and i'm now at a complete loss as to why my content within the table gets randomly cut off. Any help would me much appreciated. The link for the site is he http://netimpact.org/displaycommon.c...rticlenbr=2440. You'll notice at the very bottom of the table it randomly stops.. Hello, I am newbie, just has started my adventure with html. I tried to make an easy static site, without any additional thingd, but it occured a problem. 1. I mean, as I put table in table because I did know how to to id in different way, to make buttons on the left stay up while text on the right is moving- if I do normal table with 2columns and on the left lets say 5rows for buttons, on the right I unite all rows to make one big sort of box for contents, as I go down and try to write something morre, the rows from the letf were enlarging too If the size of explorer or firefox is nor full screen, the text in contents is going away (like now in lycos server, where screen is not full, but "cut" by advertise) 2. I have highlighted buttons, but not always works, why? (i mean it works, but darker buttons are charging so slow- maybe it is so because i saved them in pgn instead in gif, and each one is about 50kb?) -probably it is not this- because I have just changed into gif, and it is still the same 3. Another problem, as I post the site, I have notice, that in firefox I can not navigate with buttons, while in explorer yes, is it a fault of my coding, or of server where I put website? Here I post my website: http://members.lycos.co.uk/aniaacolgate/ Could someone take a look on the code, and will be so kind to correct me? It is a basic easy site of very begginger I just wanted to make a shape like this: - top: a banner - buttons in horizontal and vertical way - under buttons: contents (sincerly would like to put frames, but do not know how to put them there, is on the left there r buttons Thank you so much in advance for reply Sorry for mistakes in language Hi, i'm completely new with HTML. I'm making a website for a student activity group i'm in. We chose for me, because i had a little javascript experience. Thats more than most of us. Here goes the story. We are organizing a trip for other students. The students can enroll for the trip on the website. The form uses the following code; Code: <?php
$myFile = "enrollments.php";
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'a+') or die("can't open file");
$stringData ="<tr><td>".$_POST["name"]."</td><td>".$_POST["tel"]."</td><td>".$_POST["mail"]."</td><td>".$_POST["rnumber"]."</td><td>".$_POST["shirt"]."</td><td>".$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']."</td><td>".date("d-m, G:i:s")."</td></tr>\n";
fwrite($fh, $stringData);
fclose($fh);
?>
Named post.php The code results in a simple file with only <tr>info</tr><tr>info2</tr>. Another page uses the following code to show the enrollments Code: <table id='enrollments'><tr><th>Name</th><th>Tel</th><th>Mail</th><th>Reknumber</th><th>Shirt</th><th></th><th>IP</th><th>Time</th></tr>
<?php include('enrollments.php'); ?>
</table>
named showenroll.html Right. So far so good. Now we'd like to show the students which are thinking about enrolling howmany other students already have enrolled. In other words, i'd like to count the number of rows in the "showenroll.html" and display that in the index.html. Ive found trough google the var (document.getElementById('ID')). However, i'm not able to add this var to the index.html, and direct it to a element ID on another page. As most newbs would do, i've tried document.getElementById('./showenroll/enrollments') I'm wondering if anyone could tell me how i can direct the document.getElementById to an element id that is not on the same page. And, if this is impossible, how i can make a counter of the enrollments Drayn p.s. ive tried to search this forum on table row counter, but it didn't provide the right solution(s?) for me. I have a table and after I select the question (the ball) I would like the answer to come up in another column in that table. Is that too much? Keep'er simple please. Thanks. the bold stuff is what i added in to try and make it sortable and it didn't work.

that should be what you need..i exported an excel file as an xhtml file and read the source code and that's how it was, real unorganized and such. basically it's got stats of baseball players and i want to make them easily sortable. i created a sortable table using another piece of code but have to manually enter everything in if i do it that way. It's hard to explain, but basically I want to achieve creating a smaller file looking portion of my site, with a larger around and tabs. Basically this: I currenty just have the outer red table, using .gif's to round the corners. I tried copying the code again to place in the middle of the red table code and it doesn't work. Any help to achieve this effect would be great. Here is the code I am using: PHP Code: <table width="450" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" style="background-color: #086591"> <tr> <td width="14"><img src="images/top_left.jpg" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt="..." /></td> <td width="172"></td> <td width="14"><img src="images/top_right.jpg" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt="..." /></td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> CONTENT HERE <td></td> </tr> <tr> <td><img src="images/bottom_left.jpg" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt="..." /></td> <td></td> <td><img src="images/bottom_right.jpg" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt="..." /></td> </tr> </table> Thanks for any help. Anyone have any hints about why headings that are perfectly centered in Firefox are sometimes aligned left in IE? Hi all. I've been trying to accomplish a simple task with less to no luck, I hope somebody here can help... I'm trying to create a single page with a solid color background, with a square image (let's say 500px * 500px) centered in the page and above the solid color, with some text centered above the image. All of this should work even resizing the window: I mean, the image should resize mantainig its proportions. Is there any way to do this? I tried both tables and css, but had no luck... Thank you in advance. Melmoth |
