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 I have made 2 tables for my home page for content of pages. Each table is two rows The problem is the right column in each table is not height alligned to the left column because there is a uneven amount of links How do I get the right columns to come up heigher and be height alligned because it looks messy? I spent hours looking at all different web pages about tables and could not find this. Does anyone know???????????? Please Help me check it out Here on this page.

When attempting to print this in IE7 there appears to be an issue with the way the border is drawn. If there is a table element which is page broken in the middle and continues on a second page, the left and right borders do not appear until the second page. I have tested out my HTML table elements in Firefox and Chrome, and they both produce the correct layout. Here are screenshots of the print output in PDF. Is there anything I can do with the styling to correct this in IE7?

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. Im working on a website for my city City of Crescent Springs And im having an issue with the upcomming events div. i cannot get it to stretch to the footer Any help? OK so i have made this template and so far i like it but i have come accross a bit of an issue http://marlosweb.com/templates/test/contact.php OK so you see that little black bar on the left of the navigation? Well i want that to span the length of my page but 100% height wont work because CSS requires that the parent element has a fixed value. Does someone know how to cure this? I'm having a bit of trouble with an iframe. I'm wanting my iframe to automatically adjust to the height of whatever page loads into it. Is that possible? My code is as follows: HTML Code: <iframe src="test.html" name="_blank" width="656" height="100%"></iframe> I'm building all the page that should load in the iframe to be the proper width, but I was hoping to make the iframe automatically adjust to the height. Any help is greatly appreciated. I have a simple 2 column 2 row table that looks like the code below. I want to expand cell 2's height without expanding cell 1's height. I need this to be dynamic due to different users seeing different heights in cell 2.

I change its height from a button inside the iframe using javascript. for example: parent.document.getElementById('iframe').style.height="100px"; The problem is that if the iframe height was 500px for example, and I changed it to 100px then the whole iframe is shrink down. I mean that the 100px are the top 100px but they are appear in the button of the iframe and there are 400px empty at the beginning. Any Idea how to change it? Thanks in advance Hi guys I have a website that is driving me crazy with this problem. The layout and several pages have tables (I know i shouldn't be doing a table-based layout but my CSS skills aren't close enough to do what the site requires). The tables work fine w/o the DOCTYPE declaration which makes the browser work in Quirks Mode, but I don't want a site without the doctype of course. The problem is, when I use any kind of doctypes (and I've tried them all) my table cells go crazy. Check it out: Without doctype: http://smpt.comuf.com/index3.htm (correct view) With doctype: http://smpt.comuf.com/index2.htm (layout error) Another error: Normal: http://smpt.comuf.com/index3.htm?pagina=downloadr With doctype: http://smpt.comuf.com/index2.htm?pagina=downloadr. To make things simpler, I remade the menu part accordingly to the CSS rules and the height property in Dreamweaver 8 I even validated the page ( http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=ht...00=1;verbose=1 - 0 errors). In the editor, the page appears as follow: But when you see it in a browser, the problem still happens: http://smpt.comuf.com/indexe2.htm This is just because the doctype is present, but I made everything according to the rules, but still the same error... So, any ideas? =/ Please help me understand! I'm trying to create a page that has several static height table rows and one row that has an iframe that I want to expand to fill the height of the browser window. Here is a link to the test page: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9536793/testWITHframe.html Here is the CSS used by the page: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9536793/test.css Here is the page loaded into the iframe of the main page: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9536793/testblankframe.html So, there are three rows at the top (Title, Menu, and Button rows). At the bottom are two rows (Bottom row and Copyright row). In the middle is the row that contains the iframe that I want to fill the page height. It works correctly in Firefox 4 and Chrome. However, in IE 9 (standards mode), the frame is too tall, so a scroll bar is added to the page and the bottom area is pushed off the end of the window. Bah IE!! If I take off the DOCTYPE, or use an older DOCTYPE, IE goes into Quirks mode, and then the page appears correctly (sort of). However, I'm trying to use HTML 5 rules, so I want to just use DOCTYPE html. I also need IE in Standards mode so that a charting tool that I am trying to use wiill work right. I just can't get all of the technologies to play together! Anyway, I know iframe are sometimes frowned upon, but we use a page layed out like this and then load various pages into the iframe based on what the user selects in the menu. I don't particularly like it either, but don't know a good alternative. (I'm open to suggestions for that as well). Any assistance with getting the height to fill the page (and no more) that will work in all IE (8 and 9 standards mode), FF, and Chrome would be appreciated. Thanks. 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 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. 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, 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 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> 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 Hello I'm building a website for someone and because I built the website in a way that if the browser window width becomes smaller, the width of the content on the page becomes smaller as well, so the page's height increases. Normally, using height="100%" inside a image tag would work to get the image height to be the same as the height of the page, but because of some scripts I've had to use, that only seems to set the height of the image to its original size. Also, I can't use the CSS equivalent either, that still doesn't do the trick. So I was wondering if there is an alternative to the height property that I could use. By the way, the image is inside a table if that helps at all. Thanks Drider |
