HTML - Table Cell Expands With Content (don't Want It To)
good day!
This is probably a simple problem but here it is. http://www.innovativemovesus.com/referral-form.html At the bottom of the form there is a resizable comment field. When the field is expanded to the right, it moves the column to the right along with it. I'd like to prevent this. If only it would be resizable up to, and no more than, the constraints of the table cell. I suspect it has something to do with specifying the width of the cell (which I have done). Thanks for the help! Similar TutorialsHelllo all, I'm hoping someone with more HTML skills than I have can see where my problem is with trying to modify a pre-built website. I have an area at the top of my webpage where I'm trying to just add a small iframe that will contain a link to a related website. What happened when I added this in what I thought was the right place, is that it appeared in place of where other content was supposed to be. I then tried to contain the problem by creating a table, and given that each of the two existing pieces of content were in div blocks, I put each div block within a table data element (td). Unfortunately, even with specified column widths, the best of the results I've achieved results in my site search content having the button get pushed onto a new line and thus almost invisible, leaving the text input box in place. It's as if the PHP stuff in that div block is somehow pushing the browser to considerably widen the first cell unless I restrict it's width. The site you can see this on is: http://debtfreenewsblog.com The site is somewhat slow - takes 30 to 45 seconds to load (a separate issue, but if you happen to see why, let me know), but once it does, you can use view source and see the very first table and you'll see the resulting HTML. Dreamweaver's design view doesn't do anything to indicate why there's a problem, and kind of hides reality from me. There is a style sheet, or perhaps even more than one, for the site, and as I'm not familiar with exactly how that works together with everything else, that may well be where the problem is. Any and all help will be appreciated. My objective is to just get the search button to come back to the same line as the text input box. Steve (aka sgmunson) Hi, I'm using a table within a fieldset. The table columns expand beyond the fieldset boundaries which I don't want to happen. On the fieldset tab, I'm not using any classes other than: Code: fieldset {
margin: 1em;
}
My opening table tag is: Code: <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" border="0"> There are 6 columns in the table. Any ideas on how I can get around this? Thanks. Hi everyone: Any help appreciated. Objective: To have three equally sized and spaced images arranged horizontally, with their size set automatically by the size of the window. Development: I'm using a Mac, and I don't have ready access to a PC to experiment. What I tried: Code: <table> <tr> <td><img src = "a.png" style = "width: 100%" /></td> <td><img src = "b.png" style = "width: 100%" /></td> <td><img src = "c.png" style = "width: 100%" /></td> </tr> </table> <p class = "caption">A caption for the 3 images</p> <p class = "legend" >A legend for the three images</p> What happened: This works perfectly in Safari and Firefox (Mac) and Firefox under Vista, but in Internet Explorer under Vista , the images are HUGE - the unscaled size of the originals. What I think is the reason: IE is taking 100% to be relative to the width of the body element, not the td element. What I don't want to have to do: Use fixed sizes or calculate the sizes on the fly. What I'm trying now: removing the table and using a div, and inside that, setting the image width to 33% and floating one right and one left. What's the trick to get around this IE "gotcha" please? Thanks from a newbie. hi, i have a jsp page, in this page i am displaying data retrieved from mysql database. Now the problem is i must color table cell based on cell value. how to implement this.please give me an sample or working code foe this problem.( any code is accepted) preferably html or javascript. i.e if cell value is "late" then display that cell in red color else display the cell in green color please help me. Thanks ad Regards Akash 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}
#cat td {font-size: 13px; font-family=tahoma; font-weight: bold; padding: 0px; border:0px solid #333333; align=center;}
#cat td a {text-decoration: none; color:#757575; background-color: white; display:block; height=23; background-image: url(linkbg1.gif); align=center;}
#cat td a:hover {background-color: #333333; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;color: #ffffff; background-image: url(linkbg2.gif); align=center;}
</style>
and here is the table code, located in the body of the page: HTML Code: <div style="Height:53px; overflow:auto; width:900px; position:absolute; top:0; left:0"> <TABLE bgcolor=#333333 cellspacing=0; cellpadding=0;><tr><td> <div id="cat"> <table width=900; cellpadding:0px; cellspacing:0px> <tr align=center> <td width=20%> <font face=tahoma><a href="home.html">Home</a></font> </td> <td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="openings.html" target="_top">Openings</a></font></center></td> <td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="dance.html" target="_top">Dance</a></font></center></td> <td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="projects.html" target="_top">Projects</a></font></center></td> <td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="vocaloid.html" target="_top">Vocaloid</a></font></center></td> </tr> <tr> <td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="fanflashes.html" target="_top">Fanflashes</a></font></center></td> <td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="caramelldansen.html" target="_top">Caramelldansen</a></font></center></td> <td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="cosplay.html" target="_top">Cosplay</a></font></center></td> <td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="endings.html" target="_top">Endings</a></center></td> <td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="anime.html" target="_top">Anime Episodes</a></font></font></center></td> </tr> </table> </div> </td></tr></table> </div> A table is nested within another table. 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! Hi everyone. So I got my template set up to the way I like it and everything is rolling good. I inserted a picture into one of the cells in the table and it shifts everything over. Here is my code: <td width="625" colspan="1" bgcolor="white"> <font type="Arial" size ="5" color="blue"> <b>Floorplan</b><br> <center> <a href="floorplanlarge.jpg"><img src="floorplansmall.jpg" border="0" /></a> </center> </td> I have been working on fixing this for the last hour and am out of ideas on what is going on. The picture is smaller than the cell width range. My picture width is 311 pixels and the cell width is 625 pixels. I dont know if there is code whether its HTML or CSS to prevent the cell from widening. Any help would be appreciated. Also if you need me to provide more detail I can. Thanks. So i am building a site for a friend, and created a navigational bar across the top with 7 tabs. The bg color is currently blue with white letters, and I want to make it white with black letters on a mouseover. I tried a couple different things from google, and nothing worked. Here is the code for the table. I would appreciate all the help I can get.

I wanted to ask if there is a way to specify certain width sizes for table cells in a table. The thing is that I have a table in one webpage that, if I leave the width of the TD cells unspecified, I usually end up with some cells being very wide because the text that is written inside them is very big and does not roll up automatically and other cells shrink and become very small in order for the total table not to lose its specified length. Can I set a specific width for the cell that gets filled with many words so that the contents of this cell will wrap and not extend so much? Thank you! I've got a small problem, i want to make a table cell that works as a button. I tried it this way: Code: <table border='1' width='100%' height='10%'> <tr> <a href='page.htm'> <td width='20%' height='100%'> </td> </a> But this won't work, does anybody know how I can solve this problem? Hi, I have a template made that my friend made in photoshop and slice the image to be able to put them in html. The problem is when I put too much text the cell on both side of the middle one are resizing too. is there a way to lock them from resizing and get only the cell that i want to resize? I'll put the html code here and thx a lot! BTW When it say: this cell resize verticaly - it mean that I want this cell to resize and not the others Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Hello, I have a problem with tables cells containing form buttons: Code: <tr> <td colspan="2" align="center"> <button id="button-submit_2" type="submit">Add Name</button>      </form> <form action="nrt-home-edit&delete.php" method="post"> <input type="hidden" name="class_name" value="$class_name[0]"/> <button id="button-submit_2" type="submit">Finish</button></form> </td> </tr> The above code puts the two buttons on their own lines within the table cell. My question is, does anybody know how to keep them on the same line without putting them into their own individual cells? I recently made a rollover menu, and though the text does highlight when I roll over the cell, the link only works if I rollover the word is the cell. Is there a way to make the cell itself link? I am doing a simple calendar. I managed to do the table with days etc. I have a problem I wish to highlight a number and the cell automatically according to the date of the day. Can Someone help please? Thanks & best regards i want to open a frame by clicking on a cell,i can only do this when the ref is outside the table,can you help? Thanks everybody Hi Can someone please tell me how I can make a table cell (which contains text which is linked) linkable? http://www.revolution.worldclanleagu...?site=calendar Here you can see a calendar with months at the top. When you hover over a month, the cell highlights but only the text inside is actually selectable - I'd like to make the cell selectable/linked.

(sorry theres so much css) Thanks in advance =D Hi Guys, Code: <td><a href="#" onclick="javascript:document.forms['formStatement'].submit()"> <%= statement.getTransaction().get(i).getTransactionId()%></a></td> As u see above is cell of a table, I want to fetch the value of the row cell as i want to use it using request object like req.getAttribute("some attribute"); How can i do that? i want the entire table cell to be the link, not just the text inside any ideas? I have (for my sins - should have read up on css earlier) a table-based site, essentially with header, footer, left and right cells and the main piece in the middle. I have used different background colours, but am wanting to highlight the middle bit. I have used a border, but that seems to centre on the edge of the cell - ie half the specified border size is inside the cell and half outside. The effect of this is that my two side pieces have whitespace before they start. Is there any way to specify a 'border' which stays totally within its relevant cell ? Thanks. |
