HTML - Expanding Text Inside A Table On Hover
Hi all,
I have a table with some data in it. Sometimes the data in one of the cells fills up and it messes up the formatting of the rest of the table. I would like to have the table show a "...." when this happens and then when the user hovers his mouse over this then I want the remaining data to float over the table. Somewhat like a tooltip text. Is there anyway to do this? Thanks in advance for any help, Jehan Similar TutorialsIm making a calendar table and i want to be able to change the color of the background depending on the status of the date. and i wanted to know were do i code the conditional statements to determine the color of the background? and hot do i make that text take me to a form when you click on it? thanks for the help, Tavo I'm working on a website and I'm running into a problem with the left side cells. http://www.kbrmarketing.com/kbrnew/pages/problem.html If you look at the side on FF (3) is looks correct, but when you look at in in IE (i'm using 7) it's gets stretched out. I want only the bottom cell to expand as the page gets longer. Here's some pictures to help explain < IE < FF I just inserted those line breaks to extend the page to show you guys the problem. Eventually those breaks will be replaced with text and pictures. (the <br>'s are in the right cell, which causes the left cells to then expand) I have a table and it expands. One bottom "Author" row expands when I put data in the top row "Words". How do I stop this from happening. Code: <div id="apDiv20"> <table width="231" height="190" border="0"> <tr> <td height="23" colspan="3"><div align="justify"><span class="style4 style10">';echo $Title[1]; echo'</span></div></td> <td height="23"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height="135" colspan="3">';echo $Words[1]; echo'<div align="justify"> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> </div></td> <td height="135"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="48" height="23"><span class="style9">Author:</span></td> <td width="73"><div align="justify"><strong><span class="style3 style10">';echo $author[1]; echo'</span></strong></div></td> <td width="52"><span class="style13">share</span></td> <td width="40"><pre class="style2"> </pre></td> </tr> </table> </div> hi again... Nobody replied to my last post, so I've simplified what I am having trouble with. I have a MAIN table (which holds all of the page content) that is set to automatically scale to 100% height of any size browser window. That part works fine. My problem lies with the content in that main table. 1) I want the blue table to stay aligned to the top of the browser window. 2) I want the green table to automatically stretch vertically to fit any size browser window 3) I want the yellow table to stay aligned to the bottom of the browser window. When I resize the browser window, the green table does not expand properly. I've already tried different <div height="100%"> and <table height="100%"> values and none of them work. The smaller I resize the browser window , the more of the green table is cut off from the bottom, and the yellow table does not scale properly. So in short, the blue table stays at the top, the yellow table stays at the bottom, and i want the green table to scale vertically to fill the remaining space in between when the browser window is scaled vertically. Everything works fine when scaled horizontally. Can someone please help me with this!?!?!?!? Again, here is the basic stripped down version of the html code I have. HTML Code: <html> <head> <title>Site Title</title> </head> <style> html, body { margin:0px; height:100%; width: 100%; padding: 0px; } </style> <body> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#111111" height="100%" width="100%"> <tr> <td valign="top"> <!-- Top table - Stays at the top of the browser window --> <div valign=”top”> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#111111" width="100%"> <tr> <td width="100%" height="70" bgcolor="#00FFFF"> <p align="center">This table stays aligned to the top of the browser window and stays 70 pixels in height. </td> </tr> </table> </div> <!-- End of top table --> <!--Middle table - Stretches vertically to fill remaining space--> <div valign=”top”> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bordercolor="#111111" width="100%"> <tr> <td width="100%" valign="top" bgcolor="#00FF00"> <p align="center">content in this table will be aligned to the top.<br> I want this table to automatically expand vertically to fill the empty space between the blue header and the yellow footer.</td> </tr> </table> </div> <!-- End of middle table --> <!-- Bottom table - Stays at the bottom of the browser window --> <div height=”100” valign=”bottom”> <table height="100" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bordercolor="#111111" width="100%"> <tr> <td width="100%" height="100" bgcolor="#FFFF00"> <p align="center">I want this footer to stay aligned to the bottom of the browser window and stays 100 pixels in height</td> </tr> </table> </div> <!-- End of bottom table --> </td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> Hi guys, I'm really having a problem here. I'm creating a new instant messenger program and can't get the tables to stretch properly. Firstoff, when the messenger loads, you will not see the address bar, status bar, menu bar, etc. I want to be able to resize the browser (messenger) window to any size, just like you would with msn for example. I have 3 tables. 1) The first one will contain all the header graphics etc and I want this table to stay aligned to the TOP of the browser window. 2) The middle table is where the chat conversation text will go. The chat text will be aligned to the top of this window. This is the window that I need to stretch to vertically automatically when you resize the browser window. 3) The last table is where the message entry box will be. I want this to stay aligned to the BOTTOM of the browser window. Right now, my MAIN TABLE which contains all of the messenger content does stretch to fit the screen, but how the heck do I get the three tables inside it to be aligned how i need them??? Here is the basic code that I'm working with: <html> <head> <title>Site Title</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css"> </head> <body> <table id="fullheight" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#111111" width="100%"> <tr> <td> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#111111" width="100%"> <tr> <td width="100%">Header goes here - Stays aligned to the top of the browser window</td> </tr> <tr> <td width="100%">Middle chat content - automatically stretches vertically when the browser window is resized</td> </tr> <tr> <td width="100%">Message entry box section - stays aligned to the bottom of the browser window</td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> This is the CSS code that I'm using which makes the MAIN table expand to fit the entire browser window: html, body { margin:0; padding:0; height:100%; border:none } #fullheight{height:100%} Can anyone please help me out? Thanks! I want to make a text box that looks like so: http://benjaminpotter.org/prototype.jpg and I need it to expand no matter how much text I place in there... I have got these 3 images: http://benjaminpotter.org/top.png http://benjaminpotter.org/middle.png http://benjaminpotter.org/bottom.png I need some way of making the middle one repeat itself down the x axis, so that the box can hold infinite text. Can anyone help me here? How do i stop a table from expanding, When i place a image in it that is larger then the table size. The catch is, I dont want to set the any size peramiters in the 'img' tag. table width = 100 px image width = 200 px 100 px = of pixel page killings Thanks I hope this is in the right spot. Well I'm really loosing it becasue I think I wasted 4 hours on a webpage that I'm going to have to do all over. The problem: I spread out a grid, then filled it with text boxes. Well it looks great until I upload it to the Internet, because all of a sudden I have huge gaps which spread it out, creating huge breaks within the document. I'm not sure what to do from he Here's what it looks like: http://www.wellnessandpreventionoffice.org/WPO_body/ Here's what it is suppose to look like (note, this is a capture in layout mode): http://www.wellnessandpreventionoffi...ody/sample.jpg Notice the big spaces that are coming in after the bottom bullet in each list. eventually every line will be a link similar to the word "Elementary" under Physical Education. I'm open to any suggestions. THANK YOU! I would like to have a single word which on hover displays a box with some details. I know I could do this crudely using an image for the word, and having the 'alt' text contain the details wanted on hover. What is the correct way of doing this? Ta muchly! I am having a problem with a web page that when I use the echo statement and try to output data to the web page in a table the data in the table pushes the data from another row down the page. What should I do to stop this from happening. I am using adobe dreamweaver. Thanks a lot!! I'm not sure if this has been covered somewhere, but I couldn't find it. I'm wondering if there's any way to get an image to pop up on a hover over text, not a link. If that's not specific enough, I have a page of staff members. I want to be able to move my mouse over the person's name and have a picture of them pop up. Is this possible? Hello there, I am trying to find code to accomplish one little task. I want specific text to show up when one hovers over a button. Not clicking it, but hovering over. Like the ESPN tourny bracket page...hover over any team abbreviation to see full team name. Example Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Lorne Hello, Is there a way to hover text over a Jquery slider?

Any ideas? Heres the site: Heres a picture in case some of you don't see the problem or don't have firefox. PS: I'm not sure if the gap is between the table and the other table, or between the table and the image. Thanks for your help. |
