HTML - Weird Height Behavior For Table Thead?
I've created a table using xhtml similar to the following:
<table> <caption></catpion> <thead></thead> <tbody></tbody> <tfoot></tfoot> </table> For some reason, when I set the caption height > 30px the caption section starts repeating itself but not with the caption text. Here's a pic: http://instagr.am/p/IM55OpPYn5/ I get this behavior in both IE and FF. Is this the expected behavior? Is there a workaround for this? It seems like xhtml would provide more flexibility than this.... Similar TutorialsAny idea how this could happen? http://frostyle.servehttp.com/temp/shuttle_manage.jpg There isn't much CSS applied to the table or the thead, and this only sometimes seems to happen. Not sure if this is Firefox only or not. Any ideas? Thanks. THIS PROBLEM IS WITH --IE-- ONLY I have this piece of code that I simplified as much as I could to show a simple example: PHP Code: <table width="50%"> <tr><td colspan="2">short</td></tr> <tr> <td width="128"><img src="" width="110"></td> <td>a<br>a<br>a</td> </tr> </table> <table width="50%"> <tr><td colspan="2">long long long long long long long</td></tr> <tr> <td width="128"><img src="" width="110"></td> <td>a<br>a<br>a</td> </tr> </table> For some reason when long-long-long text is long enough, it pushes a-a-a-a to the right even through one of the cells is limited to 128 pixels.. If I color the backgrounds of the cells in different colors, it is evident that it is the cell pushing, not text-alignment problem Question, why the cell is affected but the upper cell text length even through it is properly col-spanned..? Hi, i'm doing an interface for a database, and i want to print my query results on tables. As i have many entries, i need a big table so i want to do a table with scroll where my header doesn't get out of sight (ever) when i scroll down. im working on NuSphere Phped, Windows 7. This code is working only on the PHPed simulator...on chrome and FF the scrollbar dont appear: PHP Code: <table align="center" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" style="border: black; border-style:double ; border-spacing: 0; cursor:default;"> <thead> <?php ###### ###### processing the query for($i=0; $i<$numcol; $i++) { ####### echo "<th bgcolor=\"#000000\" "; ####### some conditions for mouse events echo "><font face=\"helvetica, cursive\" size=\"-2\" color=\"white\">"; echo $column_name"</font></th>"; } ?> <th style="width: 16px; background: black;"></th> ##16px for the scrollbar </thead> <tbody style="overflow-y: scroll;overflow-x:hidden; height: 300;"> <?php $i=0; do{ ######## ######## ?> <tr onmouseover="this.bgColor='#B3BC7A'" onMouseout="this.bgColor='<?php if($i%2==0) echo "#eeeeee"; else echo "#ffffff"; ?>'" <?php if($i%2==0) echo " bgcolor=\"#eeeeee\" "; else echo " bgcolor=\"#ffffff\""; ?>> <?php for($j=0; $j<$numcol; $j++) { ?> <td <?php #######more php query precessing ########## ?> ><font face="helvetica, cursive" size="-2"> <?php } echo $attribute; ?> </td> <?php } ?> </font> <td style="width: 16px; overflow: scroll;"></td></tr> <?php $i++; }while($currentRow) ?> </tbody> </table> can someone tell me how to make it work on those browsers? I've been running into a bit of trouble trying to get a tabular setup working in XHTML using some limited CSS stuff. I've been working with a new layout for my existing site. The main idea is he http://www.etherealdivine.com/newsite/new.html As you can see, there are some issues with the menu text staying where it should. Here's the code for that page: Code: <!DOCTYPE html

Strangely, if the image-containing div has just text in it, everything works the way it should: http://www.etherealdivine.com/newsite/new_text.html Any tips would be helpful, I just can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Both pages have been validated using validator.w3c.org. Thanks in advance. Hi, i got a big problem; If you run this code in Firefox everything is ok - there is one yellow text input; But in Internet Explorer there are two red horizontal 1 pixel lines under and above text input; I have been pulling my hair since 2 days and still i dont know how to get rid of those lines?; Is this IE bug ? Please help me if you can; Thx; HTML Code: <html>

Ok, I am creating a calculator with html and javascript. I am using a table to format the buttons and text displays. The code is posted below with the table itself. It is supposed to be 3 cells height and 1 cell width but it turns out as 2 cells width and 2 cells height.

I'm not sure how MySpace is viewed on this forum, but I figured that posting here would be my best bet for help. I'm using HTML to place a table composed of several GIFs over my normal page. It changes the look completely, while still maintaining the functions I wish to keep. I normally use FireFox and the table I made works perfectly fine with it. The issue is most of my friends use Internet Explorer, and I realized the table has weird gaps when viewed in IE. It used to have vertical gaps too, but I turned the table code into one long line and that was fixed. I'm still left with horizontal gaps, though. http://www.MySpace.com/NeoApollo My HTML experience is limited, so lots of the code is borrowed from this site or that generator. Because of this, the code isn't very readable and I apologize. 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. Basically what I want is a floating table head that follows you around when you scroll the table. Did all that, but the problem is that you need to cut out the head of the table to make it float. The problem comes where you have a table that has no column width set so the column width is determined by the content of tbody. I'm trying to make the browsers keep rendering the entire table, but hide the tbody so the columns won't loose their widths. It works fine in Mozilla and Opera, but IE has problems. Here is the code: HTML Code: <html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
table
{
border-collapse: collapse;
}
tbody td
{
line-height: 0px;
visibility: hidden;
}

And the result can be seen in the attached picture. Any ideas how to solve this or another way to preserve the thead column widths? I have a table row with a form with several buttons. The row is twice the height of the buttons and I haven't been able to control the height. Here is snippet: <html> <head> </head> <body> <center> <table border='1' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0'> <tr> <td align='center'> <form> <input type='button' value='Prev month' id='btnPrevID' onClick='MonthYearChange("prev")'> <input type='button' value='Next month' id='btnNextID' onClick='MonthYearChange("next")'> <input type='button' value='Change Mo/Yr' id='btnChgID' onClick='DropDownChangeMonthYear()'> </form> </td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> Hello all, I am making a website with the lay-out based on a table (I know I shouldn't, when will I ever learn? ;-)). The problem is the following: I have divided my page into several blocks: The lowest <td> row has been set at 544px while the top row has been set at auto. Firefox gives the correct output. In IE the lowest row is longer than 544 px (the red line gives the height it should have, the red arrow points to the real hight). Putting the height on 100% doesn't help because it stretches the top row over the complete page, leaving the bottom row out of the screen (the positive side of this is that now the bottom row is 544 px as I had orderd it to)... So does anyone have advice for me (besides the fact that I should make my lay-out with div's: tried it, but it just doesnt work for me :-)). Thanks for the help, JuliusV ps. I've checked my code (html and css) with w3 and no errors have been found. Hi @ all! I am working on a layout with XHTML + CSS by use of a table, wich fills 100% of the browser window's height. Now here's my example: http://dennishoene.de.funpic.de/index2.html (Please just ignore the advt. popping up) I designed a simple grid for prospective contents. In Firefox, Safari and Opera it works fine, in IE not. I used fixed heights for the first line (30px), the second line (120px), the third line (30px) and the fifth line (30px). The fourth line should be variable (due to different screen resolutions), but in the end, the table should be of 100% height (see CSS-indications in <head>). It seems as the Internet Explorer simply does not take any notice of these values, whereas Firefox & the rest do (in detail: IE accepts the height: 100% statement, but ignores or deranges the fixed height values of the particular table cells/lines). How can I solve my problem? Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. Dennis Hi, I am looking to get a table along the side of my page to stretch from top to bottom. I tried <table height="100%"> and .high {height:100%} ... <table class="high"> but it didn't work it only shows until the end of the table's content. Is there a way to do this? Thanks Im having an issue with the table row heights on my page, i have three rows: The top row has the navigation menu, the second had a sub navigation menu (previous and next) to go between pages and then the third is has the content. I want the top to rows to snug up with the top of the table (like the top 25%) and then the content to be in the middle of the bottom row. Barring putting 'height="25%"' in the tr tag, is there a good way to do this? Thanks hi, recently ive been doing a layout and something came across that i couldn't fix. In internet explorer, the "Search Archive" box's height becomes bigger, but when viewed in firefox, it looks okay... does any1 know how to fix this? link: http://blogremix.cjb.net Hi Everyone: I'm having difficulty getting a table row height of "1" to display as only one pixel in height. Please see the attached files for reference. The JPG is what I want it to look like, and the index.txt file is the HTML I've currently setup that is not working. The table should have four white strips. On the right side, this is above and below the large black box, as well as under the green box. On the left side, this is between the light green box and the slightly darker green box. As you can see, all of these white strips appear to be larger than one pixel in height, and I'm not understanding why. Can anyone please explain to me why this is occurring, and what I can do to fix it? Also, once fixed, will I be able to merge cells of the same color (i.e make the big black box one merged cell, the below green box one merged cell, etc...)? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Philip Hi, First, please excuse me if this has been answered before. I wasn't able to find any similar posts that has a solution and thus I'm making this new thread. What I have is a simple table with two sections just like this: Code: <table>
<tr>
<td width='50%' valign='top'> Content goes here... </td>
<td width='50%' valign='top'> Content 2 goes here... </td>
</tr>
</table>
Inside those two sections I have a fieldset in each of them (yes, I know this might sound weird, but that's how I need it to be). The question is, how can I make the height of both <td> (or alternatively the fieldset value) to be equal, in a situation when the data is a dynamical one and I don't know its size initially. It looks ugly if one of the rows is longer than the other and I would like to justify them in some way. I tried setting height attribute but to no avail. Any thoughts how this can be achieved? Thank you in advance for your help! Hi, My site is here I am having problems with the left side. It looks how I want it in Firefox but in IE it is ignoring my height commands and centering all the rows across the whole table. Anyone know how I can get this to look the same in Firefox and IE? Bit of a numpty so please be gentle Thanks Jon Hi, Please review the following code and give me your thoughts... HTML Code: <table width="500" border="1"><tr> <td width="200"><p>This</p><p>is</p><p>very</p><p>very</p><p>very</p><p>LONG</p><p>text</p></td> <td width="300" height ="100%" valign="top"> <table width="300" height ="100%" border="1" cellspacing="0"> <tr><td width="300" valign="top">This should be at the TOP</td></tr> <tr><td width="300" valign="bottom">This should be at the BOTTOM</td></tr> </table> </td> See the attachment for what I am trying to achieve... The thing to focus on is the second column and how it has 2 rows which are trying to stretch to fill the height of the single row first column. It works in Firefox 3.6 but not at all in IE8. Any ideas? And please don't talk me out of tables for this thread... I know they aren't the greatest thing ever, I'm just trying to fix what I have. Thanks! - Jeff I have just started using strict XHTML instead of HTML (because it makes my drop-down menus work in all browsers). But now all table rows that contain images using image tags are too high. Look here, where I have used background colors to show row heights: http://colatinaexit.com/index1.shtml This is a stripped-down page that I am using to try to figure this out. But I'm missing something (I just don't know what). Look at the rows under the main image. The first row has no image tag and a partial green background color. It uses a CSS class and a background image for the corner. The second row is identical. Notice that the heights are correct and they are aligned right next to each other vertically. Now look at the 3rd row. It contains several image tags and the partial blue background color shows that it is too high. It is defined as 10 high, all the images are defined as 10 high (and, in fact, they ARE 10 pixels high). Look at the 4th row (partial green background). No image tags, no CSS. and the height is right. The 5th row? Partial blue background color. It has an image tag, plus a CSS class that defines its height as 10px, and no background image. Too high overall. I've tried all the combinations I can think of. And every combination that includes an image tag is too high. Why? What am I missing? BTW, I know that I should be using only CSS and div tags, but I have an older version of Dreamweaver and it doesn't do WYSIWYG for CSS very well. So it would be really helpful for me to understand why table rows with images are overly high. Thanks, Paul |
