this issue is urking me, i must be missing a style.
what can i do to get this page top box to cooperate. HTML Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> <style type="text/css"> <!-- .contentTopBox { margin-bottom: 5px; margin-left: 15px; margin-right: 15px; border: 1px solid; background-color: #999999; height: 112px; } .contentTopBoxRightPortion { background-color: #333333; float: right; padding: 5; text-align: center; overflow: hidden; background-color: #333333; width: 180px; } .contentTopBoxLeftPortion { float: left; width: 79%; padding-top: 35px; overflow: hidden; padding-left: 10px; padding-right: 10px; } .contentTopBox .siteHeader { color: #666666; color: #666666; background-color: #Fefefe; border: 1px solid; font-weight: bold; font-size: 130%; padding-left: 15px; padding-top: 5px; padding-bottom: 5px; display: block; overflow: hidden; width: auto; } --> </style> </head> <body> <div class="contentTopBox"> <div class="contentTopBoxLeftPortion"><span class="siteHeader">Page Title</span></div> <div class="contentTopBoxRightPortion"><img src="mals/lib/3-wolf-rock-2.gif" alt="3 wolves carved into a rock" width="170" height="100" /></div> </div> </body> </html> on the right of the box is a 120px nav bar, and on the left is an ad banner. those arent included on this page. this bar fills in the content box area inbetween the navs. the problem im having is when viewed at 1680x1050 the bar works fine, but when the browser is crunched down towards 800x600 the image on the right flops(wraps) below the title header as if there is some percentage of width that finds itself running into the contentTopBoxRightPortion box. what i need; on the right, I need the image to be solid in place, with 5px padding around it, that takes care of the right side. and on the left i need the siteHeader bar to expand accordingly(max width atlease 1600 px for 2000px monitor) , with approximately 10px of padding on the left and the right, no matter what the browser size. Also i would like the siteHeader bar to automatically find the middle (vertical align-middle) related to varying heights that the contentTopBox may be set to to accommodate varying rightPortion images. Everything was working fine on FF when i had a 2 column table, except on IE7 of course, but i really DONT LIKE TABLES, and want to do away with them i have tried span tag vs. div tags, and clearing divs, and of course every type of float and overflow, and switching the location of the left column and right column code in the html, so i must be missing something, and am spending way too much time on this otherwise simple issue :-). what am i missing? Similar TutorialsThis is my site: http://theodyssey.in/thedeck/gallery.html How come, when i open it in IE 6+ the whole layout is fine. But when I try and view the site in Firefox, the whole content of the page is shifted down? I don't know what is going on. Any help appreciated in advance, Thanks, Akshay Is there a way so that when you click a link, it will push everything below it down and show what they requested to see. I am planning on this for suggestions and help without users needing to re-load the page. Thanks. Sean Hi all, I have a simple table: Code: <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td colspan="3" rowspan="3">MAIN CONTENT</td> <td>fixed</td> </tr> <tr> <td>expandable</td> </tr> <tr> <td>fixed</td> </tr> <tr> <td>fixed</td> <td>expandable</td> <td>fixed</td> <td>fixed</td> </tr> </table> The 2 expandable tds need to expand / contract depending on the height and width of the main content cell (as they will have repeating backgrounds) When I try this it is always the other columns that expand or contract. (BTW, this is all for a shadow border for different image sizes) Anyone know how I can achieve this? Thanks! 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 am looking for a code that when you click a link, it expands an area below it with out reloading the page or switching pages. I have seen it before, just click a link and it pops open a invisible box of (whatever) information you want, click the link again and the box turns invisible again. Sorry if I am not explaining this correctly. I need help Im tryng to create my webpage so that there are no scroll bars on the right or bottom. I want the content to fit right on screen without the need to scroll to view more content. But my problem is, my page is not even filled up yet, i only have my navigation on top plus my table in the center. my table width is "100" and height="50". its small on the page but everytime i expand it abit more, it makes the entire webpage bigger then the scroll bars start appearing. Im tryna make a page that fits right on screen without need to scroll. Is there a code to fix this. ?/ Hi Guys, I have a page that seems to render fine in Firefox, but looks awry when I view it in IE. Could someone point out what the problem is and how to fix it? I've done some research on my own, and think it might have to do with IE's expanding box problem: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/communi...NG_BOX_PROBLEM However, I haven't done much coding since 2001, so I could really use a helping hand. Thanks very much. URL of problem page: http://cervantes.webng.com/sims.html How do I expand the tables here at http://www.ultdmovies.com.

Thanks Bob v Hey i'm back and as idiotic as ever Ok when i over fill the tables they obviously expand but it destorys my template how can i make the images replicate or expand or whatever would be best, all help is good. Cheers EDIT: forgot to provide template link here Hi everybody! OK..i am a complete newb when it comes to coding and web design. I have been trying to build a website for a new online business I'm starting. Its not finished but i thought i'd publish it and check it on a few browsers, its fine in Safari, Firefox but in IE7 it looks terrible. Dreamweaver is telling me i have an expanding box problem. I have read around and tried a few workarounds but nothing seemed to work, but then i don't really know what i'm doing! Can anybody help? the URL is: www.atomicaudio.co.uk any advice would be greatly appreciated thanks, Dan wanted to get an effect like this: http://www.azeotek.com/product_p/hg-m2.htm as you can see when you scroll over the image it has an expanded view. obviously it's some sort of java or code i have no idea how to do.. suggestions? Good afternoon. I am hoping someone can help. I've used tables to create the layout of my website (www.bongoscribbler.com) and I'm linking to a php script for the blog which essentially inserts blog.php into the middle cell. I want the cell to expand downwards so that scroll bars aren't necessary. It does this when viewing it on the iPhone or on the iPad but when viewing using Safari, IE and Firefox on the PC the cell doesn't expand downwards, but rather it stays the same size and scroll bars appear. If I disable the scroll bars, the cell still doesn't expand downwards to fit in all the content but the additional content is just outside the view of the cell. Does this make sense? Perhaps if you take a look at the site and click "read more" you'll see what I mean. <tr> <th background="pictures/s_image11_6.gif" width="141" height="683" border="0"></th> <th background="pictures/s_image11_7.gif" ALT="Main" width="777" height="683" border="0"> <iframe src="http://www.bongoscribbler.com/cgi-bin/preview.php" width="100%" height="100%" frameborder="0" scrolling="auto"></iframe> </th> <th background="pictures/s_image11_8.gif" width="82" height="683" border="0"></th> </tr> Does anyone know what attributes I need to give the cell/table to get it to expand downwards? I'll be very grateful for any help. Thanks a lot Tom 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.

Regards Subramanian I've figured out how to embed YouTube videos into a vBulletin installation of mine. How would I go about making a vertically expanding table that expand when the user would click on the "YouTube" text? I'm thinking of starting out out as a size maybe 100px high and 400px wide, and expand to 375px high and 450px tall. I've checked Google, but nothing seemed to come up that I could use.
