HTML - Tables Or Divs?
http://www.freewebs.com/stevenwang/
That is tables... Someone had mentioned I should create the website with divs. Any tips for doing this? Or is there a real simple way to do it real quick? And what are the added benefits to divs as opposed to tables? Or vise versa.. Any help, or info would be greatly appreciated.

Similar TutorialsI think this is a html question, though if it needs to be moved to CSS please let me know. Basically, I'm using divs for the first time. I've got the same rough layout for each page on the site, but in one of them I need to insert a table. When I insert the table it puts a great big gap in the div just above where the table starts. Why is it doing that? Can I stop it? How do I get around this? Help! Nim Hi Folks, I am pretty new to web page development. I want to layout a page as follows: a) Header fixed height, width 100% b) left column fixed width c) Main content variable dependent on screen resolution d) right column fixed width E) footer always visible at bottom of screen I have been experimenting with div's to do this and I am having problems getting things to line up the way I want. I know I could easily achieve this using a table but I have the impression that it's frowned upon to do it this way. So my questions a a) Is it considered bad practice to use a table to control the layout of a page ? b) If so why ? TIA, JC Im in the midst of converting my new CMS (phpnuke) into a css div layout rather than a table layout because the site has a rather slow loading time. Well, I got the header done nice, and then the footer, but I don't understand how the body structure works... I'm having a bit of a hard time trying to figure out how to get the body flowing nicely. to top it off, I want to move everything over to the left (all the blocks) and I did so in the admin panel, however some blocks still show up on the right (ie- rating blocks and such) and these blocks dont show up in my admin panel. Just a whole lot of questions and could use extensive help from anyone with cms experience. Thank you! http://www.pzproductions.com/home My goal is to create a website to display a yearbook. First I wanted to display the overall page, with imagemapping to enlarge any images on the page, whether it be a group photo, an indivdual photo...etc. Some pages could have 1 image, others could have 40 images, and not each page has the images in the same spot, so each page would require it's own image mapping. My question is how do I work around screen resolution? I would prefer to use divs and tables for % imaging, but if I do, I can't use an image map. Or is there a way to make an image map that is also based on %? The whole project will encompass about 70 pages of images. Thanks i used to use tables for the layout, now i'm trying divs..the thing is i'm not sure how should i think about the layout, i mean like tables i have rows, every row have cells, now with the divs i should think about it the same way? a container div to replace the main table, then another div to take place of a row, then divs as cells..an so on does that make any sense? i don't know if that was clear, but the question is: how should i think about it? i know the question sounds stupid but it seems that i just got used to tables & can't accept divs yet Hi Normally, when you have more than one table in your code, the tables will be placed one under each other. Example: <table> ... </table> <table> ... </table> When you want the tables to be placed next to each other, you need to set the align attribute. Example: <table align="left"> ... </table> <table align="left"> ... </table> BUT: When you do it like in the 2nd example (tables next to each other), in Firefox, the tables will wrap to a new line if there is no more space. In Internet Explorer, the tables will not wrap. The result is a horizontal scrollbar or "hidden tables". Why this? How can I make the tables wrap also in Internet Explorer as it does in Firefox? Is it possible with a special CSS definition or with a special DIV/SPAN tag? Thanks for your help praiser Hey everyone, I'm new to these boards. Somewhat a newbie at web design, but I know basics. I'm looking to put 2 tables adjacent to each other inside another table. My problem is I can't get the tables to line up the way I want them to. I'll post a picture of how I want it to look, how it looks now and my code. How I want it to look: How it looks now: I want the tables to line up at the top and re-size according to each other so they're always aligned at the top. Code: coming in next 2 posts Hello.

The result of this code must be three in line menu. (the code is an example). But IE 6.0 can't understand divs with float. Any one who knows how I can fix it? Sorry for my English. Thank you. Hello, I am using a div for my website. I would like all the content to load in the divs, I don't want to create a new page for each site.How can I do this? Also, for the portfolio,I would like the images to change when you click the arrow, but I don't want to use frames or have each image on a new page. Can I do this within the div?

contenthouder is the holder, inloghouder de div on the left, scheiding the div in the middle and texthouder the div on the right Can anyone help me with this code to make the page fluid in all three browsers without showing spaces in between the sections? http://www.cpe.rutgers.edu/wetlands/certificate05.html Thanks in advance Ok, I'm completely self taught, so don't be surprise if my html is a mess. I was told recently that I'm out of date in using tables and should be using divs, so in updating my website that's what I'm trying to do. The first one is that it doesn't display properly in IE. Can anyone tell me why, and how to rectify it? http://www.ratscallions.co.uk/Test/index.html There are other problems (as you'll be able to see), but I'd like to work that one out first. Thank you, Nim Could anyone explain to me how to put rounded corners on divs? Ive researched it a bit, but i want to be able to change the colours so i dont want to use image based if possible. found a way to do it but want more than one curved div but cant seem to be able t use different colours. I want to have one large rounded div on the webpage then some smaller ones within this one for nav menus and content etc, Have found some ideas but they dont work with IE. Hello, I've been dealing with this problem and it seems fairly simple but has got me scratching my head. The page works fine in Firefox (of course) but internet explorer draws this problem.

Any ideas? Help would be appreciated! Thanks. HI 1) Is there a way to make a div with a logo and text clickable? 3) I read it was bad for seo? 2) Is there a way to make the background image change on hover? This is css or javascript ? Thanks for reading I want two divs to change colour when I hover over one of them. I tried on the first one: <div onmouseover="this.style.background-color:#FFFFFF; #other.style.background-color:#FF0000;"></div> but that didn't work. I think this is called 'calling' the div. Can anyone help? Hi, I am making my own HTML homepage and I would like to have a button/text saying: 'Close', at the top-right. But I don't seem to be able to work out how to have multiple DIVs on one line. I have tried floating but it doesn't seem to work. By the way, I am editing with SuperEdi. I have two divs next to eachother. The first DIV has a float:left with width:100%; The second DIV has float:right with width:200px; But for some reason when the left div gets to width it pushes the right div down. http://i43.tinypic.com/2u5q6ol.jpg What i really want is that the left DIV jumps to a newline when it reaches the right DIV instead of the right edge of my screen. Anyone any idea how to do this?? HTML Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"

Hello, I have a div tag that is scrolled vertically. I found some java code he https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM...scrollIntoView that allows me to use a "Scroll to Top" button at the bottom of the DIV to help navigate it back to the top. Problem is, that I want the page to remain in the same position, whereas this seems to be making my page scroll to the bottom at the same time as scrolling the div to the top. Has anyone got any ideas on howto scroll a div to the top, without the page reloading, or scrolling? Thanks Jay how to make two divs like this? --------------- .---------------- |. . . . . . . . | |. . . . . . . . . | |. . . . . . . . | |. . . . . . . . . | |. . . . . . . . | |. . . . . . . . . | --------------- .---------------- |
