HTML - Content Height Expansion
Hi there, I'm curious if Dada's previous post does not apply to this somewhat. But basically my problem is I have a div for a nav menu and a div for a content area, basically I want the nav menu to grow as the content of the content div grows.
Here is my page and you can see my problem. http://alongcamemary.biz/newSite/index.html Basically what I did in the flow was create one div which I floated right And then the nav div which will be on the left and I set its margin the width of the item I floated right. But like I said I need each of their contents to stay the same heights automatically. Similar TutorialsI was wondering how to make it so a div would not shrink below the width of its content, so say if there was an image about 400px wide, when the browser window was resized the div wouldn't keep shrinking beyond the width of that image. (Example of what I DON'T want he http://emcs.sd62.bc.ca scroll down on the main page and you'll see what I mean) Hi, I am having some problems with the tables and cells on the following page: http://img179.imageshack.us/my.php?i...problemjs7.png What I am trying to do is insert text in the cell indicated by the red arrow. At the moment it has no width (you can see the two cell walls where it should be). However when I try to drag the right wall out, or when I click in it and start typing, it does expand to the right (which i want it to do), however it pushes all the cells to the left it left which is messing up the layout. What I would like to happen is for the cell to expand out to the right, leaving everything else in their proper place. If anyone can offer any help, I would appreciate it very much! Thanks. Hello everyone, I am in deep trouble... :-( ... For some reason Safari does not adapt the table height to the content size. All other browsers automatically adapt the table height to the content size, but Safari doesn't, and the result of the website I am developing, when seen on Safari, is a mess... Can someone tell me how to make Safari adapt automatically adapt table height to content size? Thank you very much in advance and anyway... Cheers, John Hi There, Pulling my hair out over this. For the life of me, cant make it work: http://www.cowboytuffwebsitedesign.c...cialdeals.html I've used positive padding negative margin to stretch both div's heights to match each other. But the content div, when needed to be higher than the menu div, will overflow its content past the container divs bg. As well the footer will only clear past the menu div, not the content div. HELP! PLEASE! I can copy and paste HTML right into the thread if needed. Thanks Hi Everyone, I'm slightly confused by this one. But i'm sure theres a hack out there to fix it. Basically, in firefox and konqueror, running on kubuntu, the top navigation bar at http://www.tendervendors.com/dev/payroll.html displays correctly, and when you hover over it, it fills the li with a semi-opaque background. This is correct. Its done, by filling the a element, with a background-color and then applying opaque: 0.5; The a element also has padding, which makes it fill out to the size of the li element, so the a element fills its portion of the ul, and looks like the li has the affect applied to it. However, in opera, the right and left padding is correct, but the height padding doesn't work. Does anyone know of a bug in opera that would be causing this problem, and possibly a code fix for it? TIA Matthew Millar Hi, Im trying to make my footer content align correctly to the main content when a window resizes. The apdivs don't seem to want to move at all even with a relative position etc. I have tried everything but just cant get it to work can someone help please? http://pjm.co.uk.uksite4.yourwebserv...splay&PageID=5 Also some one commented before on the amount of css and JS pages. These will al be stripped out as its an Open sources system im using! Thansk alot Joe Hey guys, I used to know a lot about html, but then just completely stopped doing anything with websites for too long. I was just wondering how I can replace a word or number with a specified word or number. What I want to achieve: I've got a forum with a couple thousand members and it's picking up in activity and I want to make some names stand out for being helpful. I want to replace their names with an image. But to do so, it'd have to be a code made and added into the footer template. Because obviously I can't edit a username for html image code. So I just need the code to find all instances of a certain username and replace it with what I specified. ------------- Man I really wish I remembered how to do this haha. Thanks guys. I have a div and within that my navigation menu. My menu is made up of ul with their styles removed and floated left to make the list horizontal. I'm trying to make the background colour of my div white, but it doesn't have any height so it's not showing up. I have two columns in my page layout. I would like them to be the same height without declaring an exact height for both coloumns. Is there anyway to do this. I have attched a simple example of what I mean.

Thanks Calyspo okay so i have page, i want it to build itself to encompass at the minimum 100% of the browsers height dynamically i have seen a few methods of doing this via css and html and i have done it in the past without issue but now it wont do it anymore and im not sure why so the site is www.wiffleague.com/main.php (you may have to maximize browser to see what i mean) i want the footer section (at the bottom, the table with the copyright info in it) to always be bottom justified no matter the height of the rest of the page. currently what occurs is that if the page does not have enough content to fill the vertical height then it simply appends the footer section at the bottom of that and then a blank space under the footer. Ok I have been racking my brain on this one for two weeks and I still cannot find an answer to this, which I know I will kick myself when I find out. I have this sidebar in a table and the sidebar spans 4 Rows the problem is that each cell does not condense down to the smallest size possible and I don't know what to do to fix it. The page in question is at http://wentworthatdraper.com/test/ The page renders great in Chrome but not FF and IE I'll put all the code I think is relevant here. <tr> <td width="77" height="160" class="sidebar" > <div class="title"> Main </div> <div class="subtitle3"> <ul> <li> <a href="index.html">Home</a> <a href="contact.html">Contact Us</a> <a href="calendar.html">Calendar</a> <a href="news.html">News</a> </li> </ul> </div> </td> <td width="721" colspan="2" rowspan="4" class="content"> <p> Edited </p></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="272" class="sidebar" > <div class="title"> Our Community </div> <div class="subtitle3"> <ul> <li> <a href="index.html">Living With Us</a> <a href="contact.html">Meet The Staff</a> <a href="calendar.html">Testimonials</a> <a href="news.html">Photo Gallery</a> <a href="index.html">Apartment Deals</a> <a href="contact.html">Dining Services</a> <a href="calendar.html">Amenities</a> <a href="news.html">Location</a> </li> </ul> </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height="20px" class="sidebar"> <div class="title"> Gallery </div> <div align="center"> <img src="../test/Images/photos/happy-home.jpg" width="131" height="86" /> </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height="100%" class="sidebar"> <div class="title"> Our Location </div> <div class="sidewriting"> 11631 S 700 E <br /> Draper, UT 8402 <p> <a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=11631+S+700+E++Draper,+UT+8402&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=42.360237,93.076172&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=11631+S+700+E,+Draper,+Salt+Lak e,+Utah+84020&ll=40.540906,-111.870153&spn=0.009963,0.022724&z=16&iwloc=A" target="_blank">Get Directions </a></p> </div> </td> </tr> .sidebar { width:175px; background:url(../images/sidebar.jpg) repeat-y; vertical-align:top; margin:auto; } .title { background:url(../images/title.jpg) left no-repeat ; height:30px; padding:10px 0px 0 15px; color:#FFF; font-weight:bold; vertical-align:top; } Thank you so much for looking at this I'm having problems with making a div height to 100%. What i mean is that the div height stretches to how long the contents of the page is. If you check out my sample here, the green div on the left only stretch to the windows "visible" viewing area, then if you lower, the height doesn't go any lower than that. any idea?

Hi, I have a table and I need a background in one cell to extend down to the bottom of the cell (which is also the bottom of the page) from a certain point (below the content of that cell). I figured I would just use a div to do that... like this <html> <head> <style type="text/css"> .divbg { background:url(tree.jpg); height: 100%; } </style> </head> <body> <table> <tr> <td> <p>Content</p> <div class="divbg"> </div> </td> <td> <p>Content takes up a lot of space here and continues down the page a bit, so that is why the background in the cell to the left has to continue down the page.</p> </td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> Unfortunately, that didn't do anything. It just left me with a strip of my background image right under the content. So... I discovered online that you have to set the parent to 100% as well. I made the td <td height="100%"> and with no luck, I made the table <table height="100">. This just did really weird stuff and I realized what the problem was. This was making the div 100% height of the window itself. All I want is for the div to go from top to bottom (not including the content at the top of the cell). Is this even possible? Let me know if my explanation is unclear... Thanks! P.S. In the real site I am using XHTML 1.0 Transitional if that makes a difference. I might be able to change that though, if I need to. It was just the default that Dreamweaver put there. I'm not sure what the rest of the site would look like if I changed that now. 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? I am using an iframe to insert some common text/links in several pages. I want the 'src' to take up just as much space (vertically) as it needs, without using scrollbars. My problem is that as time goes on, I may add, or remove things from the 'src'. I don't want to have to go back to the individual pages that have the iframe tag and re-adjust the height="xxx" bit. Is there a way to do this ? 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> Greetings! Let me start this out by getting this out of the way - I know I should not be using tables for layout anymore But with this project I have good reasons as to not using them. Learning curve being one and time being another But I am headed that way! So here is the issue I have a simple layout and nested within is this little table for content and navigation Worked fine in FF, but IE7 is giving me some unexpected results with no explanation I can find. Here is the example page http://www.mountainroseherbs.com/test/blank.html Top left (blue) is the navigation image and cell - set height should be static and remain at the top Bottom Left (red) is a nav *footer*, I guess, but it remains at the bottom and the cell above it needs to be able to stretch indefinitely - with the images sitting on the bottom. Right (Orange) is the content area - dynamically stretching with the *red* following it. In FF this works great! Not so much in IE7 - in fact it skews the height of even the *blue* which is set!? Thanks so much in advance for your help on this, I am at my wits end! Nate~ I made a preliminary layout for a website: index4-table-bad.html The problem is that it only works as intended in Opera browser. In IE and in FireFox a problem occurs: the <td id="td-menu2"> expands and shows the red background (I gave the red background intentionally to better see the problem). The "Article", "Menu1", and "News" will be dynamically generated (in php) and can have different heights. There is no option to predict which one will be the tallest. Please tell how should I correct the page so that: - <td id="td-menu"> should not expand and stay 35px heigh and the article should go just below it with 5px spacing (as it now works only in Opera) - as it is now, all areas should end at the bottom at the same level (I mean: "MENU1", "ARTICLE", "NEWS" should end at the same level/line at bottom). What would be the best way to improve this layout to correct abovementioned bug? I haven't been coding html for over 10 years so I am not sure how I should approach to this bug nowadays. Is it better to add Javascript or trasform this layout into divs instead of the table. But even with divs it will perhaps need Javascript to keep areas ends at bottom at same level. Or is there any better way than Javascript? I am working with current browser versions: Opera 9.64, IE 8, FireFox 3.0.10. Regards, Mark Hey guys, I will totally accept it if you all point fingers at me and yell "n00b! look at the n00b!" but I just can't seem to work this out. If you would please look he http://cleartoday.com/OxygenPlacements/tester.html You see the main column with the words "Main Current Column" in it? What is the coding to get that column right down to the footer column? I have done it before, but I cannot do it again. Please don't judge me. Love Jared |
