HTML - Table Sizing Help
Im having problems getting my table to the right size. I want it to be 100% of the page but it only becomes 100% of whats inside the table.
Any ideas what to do to solve this? Thanks Jake At the mo, the code is Code: <table summary="News" width="100%"> Similar TutorialsHi, I have been having issues with a scroll bar on my page, and have tried a few different html codes, and have messed with sizing but am not getting the result I want. Here is the page I am referring to: http://userwww.sfsu.edu/~davidson/ar...tractbody.html I would like for there to be only the horizontal bar, like I have. But I would like the box to be smaller (i've tried making the grid's width smaller, but then the scrollbar doesn't have the pictures side-by-side, but pushes one to the bottom and it creates a vertical scroll bar). I would like it to be so that one picture or one and a half pictures, it doesn't matter, is shown. i want less to be automatically visible. i want it so you just scroll to view the rest, all side by side. Hopefully that makes sense? Thank you!!! Ok I was just informed that on our companies site that there is a new window that pops up when a link is clicked. This is supposed to happen but the one thing I am trying to figure out is that the new window is rather small and the customer has to always enlarge it. They are using IE. I have tested it with IE7 with the same results as reported but it has also been tested with FF and SeaMonkey and the new window is large. Is this an IE thing, perhaps a setting or do I actually have to add something to my CSS/HTML to account for this? Thank you for the help. How can I make my forms smaller. I already know how to control length, but how can I make the height lower. Hi, I'm using an image for my web background, but I have a little problem. I have to go and size the image correctly in the image editing program for it to look right, but then if you resize the webpage it doesn't look right. Is there a way to make the image automatically resize itself depending on the size of the person's screen? Hi, I have made a site recently, its fairly dodgy looking but thats what they wanted, it all worked out well except for one of the pages the 'footer' section of the main table wont resize properly, all the pages are coded exactly the same for the section, but just one page wont work the site is www.thesavergroup.com and the page that wont behave is the eftpos page. Any help would be appreciated i'm going nuts over this. Thanks Chris Is there an HTML script that will automatically proportionately size a graphic? Say you set the Height=100 then the Width=?? would be automatically adjusted depending on the actual size of the parent graphic. I've got an applet with some features, one of which a background image. It's actual size is 10.60 inches wide by 5.30 inches of height. Using WIDTH="744" and HEIGHT="600" (as shown on the code below) does not display the entire image. Can someone tell me the right setting of values to fix it? Is there a code to authomatically capture whatever the size of the .jpg and make it fit? Thanks in advance. Here's the html: <p align="center" <APPLET code=string WIDTH="744" HEIGHT="600"> <param name="para_back" value="background.jpg"> </APPLET> </p> How do I make this simple HTML/CSS page look the way I want? If you render this code in a browser, you will see what I'm trying to do. Thanks!

Making toolbar and scrollbar go away would also be nice. Hello. I have an HTML website image background that I am trying to stretch across any screen resolution, while keeping the image "fixed" in one position, so the image does not shrink when the screen window is modified. I got everything to work correctly, however I cannot get the image to stay at a "fixed size" when I shrink the window. Can somebody please help me? I am a beginner programmer, but I have tried numerous processes before resorting to this forum. Here is my code...in case you want to preview it in a web browser. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer me to get the image to stay "fixed" and also to keep it stretched across the entire screen.

I am using the following code that creates the desired effect in Firefox 2 but not in IE 7. By increasing the height of the image in the "rowspan=2" cell at the bottom-right, I would like only the bottom-left and bottom-center cells to expand vertically. However, this only happens in FF and not IE. In IE the middle-left and middle-center cells also expand. Any ideas how to make this work, and control which cells expand? Code: <table width="200" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#FF00FF">
<tr>
<td><img src="student01.jpg" width="100" height="100" /></td>
<td bgcolor="#9900FF"><img src="student01.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></td>
<td bgcolor="#CC0000"><img src="student01.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><img src="student01.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></td>
<td bgcolor="#CC0000"><img src="student01.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></td>
<td rowspan="2" bgcolor="#CCFF33"><img src="student01.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="300" /></td>
</tr>

Hi, I just got back into HTML and CSS and stuff for a new project after a lengthy absence. I'm also trying out PHP for the first time and having a lot of fun with it, but I'm having problems as usual. This doesn't have to do with PHP per se, but if PHP is involved in the solution that'd be just fine. By contrast, I'd like to avoid Javascript, since a lot of people have it disabled by default. One of the things that's always irked me about CSS is how it seems to be completely impossible to define an element's width/height based on its container's width/height without using percentages or without weird things happening when you use padding. Say I want to do one of the simplest things imagineable -- define a rectangular area within the page, with 25 pixels both to the left and right of it, and 12 pixels above and below it, no matter what the browser window's size is. While it's no task to set the rectangle's position relative to the body of the page (using left and top, or whatever), deciding its width or, particularly, height seems to be impossible. 100% - 25px is, sadly, not allowed, even if I incorporate PHP, since PHP has no way of telling what the 100% actually represents. I've been puzzling over this for the last couple hours, and after a great deal of fiddling with alignments, margins, padding, and such, these two pieces of really simple HTML are the best I could do, and they're both flawed: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body
{
margin: 0px;
padding: 12px 25px 12px 25px;
background-color: darkblue;
}
#inner_box
{
position: relative;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: lightblue;
}
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="inner_box">
Text
</div>
</body>
</html>
Paste that into a HTML file to see what I'm talking about graphically. The problem here is clearly that, for whatever reason, the 100% height in inner_box doesn't activate and inner_box ends up only as high as a single line of text allows. I don't know why. But in this next example... Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body
{
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
background-color: darkblue;
}
#outer_box
{
position: absolute;
margin: 0px;
padding: 12px 25px 12px 25px;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: lightblue;
}
#inner_box
{
position: relative;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: white;
}
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="outer_box">
<div id="inner_box">
Text
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Here I've fixed the problems with the first snippet by adding a new container (outer_box) with absolute positioning that covers the entire body area. inner_box goes inside it and tries to act like it did in the first example. Unfortunately, for some reason, outer_box doesn't act like the body tag did in the first example -- when padding is added to it in order to position the elements within it, outer_box expands itself instead of just resizing inner_box, like the body tag did. I've done a lot of experimenting and I simply can't find the solution. All I want is a page with a few pixels of blank space to all sides of a floating rectangle. I uploaded a couple of doctored image samples of what the page should look like, but doesn't: here and here. Anyway, in summation, this is driving me nuts. I know I could probably use Javascript to get the container (body or outer_box)'s width, and go from there, but like I said, I'd rather avoid Javascript. There has to be a better way to do this. Any help would be very welcome. EDIT: After some more experimenting, I've discovered something interesting. If I declare example 1's doctype to be: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> then it works properly. The same cannot be said for example 2. And I really can't tell why. I guess HTML forgives something that XHTML doesn't. Also, example 1 doesn't work if I include the HTML doctype's URL: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> Strange. Anyway though, it's important to make example 2 work since I would usually be working with containers within containers, not just within the body tag. So I still haven't solved my problem. this is my page http://web.vtc.edu/users/cjb06271/CI...nal/order.html there are several things I would like to happen. 1. the right collumn background to be where the right collumn should be(so other links in navbar) 2.The test between the roach pictures to be alligned with the top rather than bottom of pictures (so smaller windows can see) 3. When you size the window smaller than the text, a scroll bar appears, and when you scroll the background no longer exists. If I put it on auto the background will only go as far as the text does. 4. (nice but not required)The cocroachs to be alligned to the left and right of the top bar respectively, and the text in the middle. 5. (nice but not required) the right column background image is being cut in half (as does the top one if you size small enough). any way to make the images ignore the collumns? don't worry about the colors I will be changing them soon 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}

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! 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. 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 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">

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. 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 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.. 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. |
