HTML - Cell Background
Hello,
I am using a template to make a webpage. The background for one of the cells is not covering the entire area. I have looked and looked at this and can not figure it out. Therefore I thought I would ask some pros. Thanks!! Similar TutorialsOkay, here's what I've got: two nested tables next to each other, both with two cells in them. The bottom cell on the left table is just a filler, and has a background image to complete the layout of the site -- however, since there's no content in it, it doesn't show up. Giving it a set pixel height makes it show up, but I can't do this, as the content in the other table changes. So, I need this cell (the bottom one on the left) to automatically size itself to whatever the other table is. A height="100%" attribute also doesn't work... Help? Thanks. :] Hi everyone, I was wondering whether I can add an alt attribute to a table cell background image. I tried to add it in the code after the image address, but it doesn't work. Is there another way? Thanks! OK I am so new to HTML I can't even spell it. I have a industrial HMI the has some custom webpage features to it and I would like to learn how to build the attached Table. I am not looking for someone to do this for me I am looking for some pointers. Here is a link to the device that I am going to use and a quick breakdown of how they do things. This statement that I fully understand, I am out of my knowledge base so that is why I am here "Although the HTML code will be explained or commented through this document, a basic understanding is required to create a proper web site." http://www.redlion.net/Support/TechN...ace/TNOI33.pdf I don't know what CSS is ? I got a few examples from all over the web some from http://www.quackit.com. and just can't figure out the layout and cell colors. I plan on changing the background color on the cell to the right of the descriptor depending on the cell value. Red if <100, Green >100 I would like to start with a cell layout that I can then link values to and from the HMI per the instructions in the Tech Note above. I have played with this device just basically copy and paste the above note I have gotten that working before. Thanks for taking your time to at least read this post from a NOOB. Hi I want to addd a image for background so i can postion it and not have it repeat : for for a table cell if u see my link below its the purple table cell that has the Bomboniere Adelaide as the heading i only want the background image in that cell - thanks in advance http://weddingsmadeeasy.com.au/adelaide/Bomboniere.html I would like to put an image as a background image in a data cell to prevent unauthorized copying (or help prevent thereof). However, when I do this the image begins to repeat itself if the data cell is slightly larger than the image specs. The images are located here at www.gabegarcia.com All images on the left side of the pages is what I would like to make background images without the repeat. What would I have to add to accomplish this? Hi, How can I set a background gradient for a cell in a table? (i.e., start colour:#222222; end colour:#000000) The size of the cell may vary so a tiled image wouldn't work. Thanks. Hello all, First time posting to the forums here. I'm creating a table and each row represents a "tab" of the UI. Each cell has a background image that looksl ike this. however, when I render my table and have text in the cell, the right edge of the tab is chopped off like this.. Any recommendations on some CSS or table attributes that I can aplly to make both rounded ends of the background image appear? I've tried turning off table borders, cell spacing and cell padding. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. So I decided to see if I could make my site XHTML 1.0 Strict-compliant. Here's the main page on my test server I'd be thrilled with it if I could do 3 things: - Set the background color of the left column to match the color behind the fonts. Is there a CSS class I can create and set the cells to that class? - Remove the border around clickable images. - Get the spacing between the menu options on the left to look the way it does on the other pages in the site. If you click any of the pages on my actual site you can see the look I'm going for. Thanks as always for the help! Joshua 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 When you use a <p> tag, there is space between paragraphs. Not sure if there is are automatic margins set for the top and bottom, but that's the way it seems. I'm using <p> tags inside a <table> and I'd like the first paragraph to be tight to the top of the cell but the only way I know how to do it is to remove the <p> tags from the first paragraph. I don't really want to do this as I'd like to have the <p> tags around each paragraph. Here is what I have, which btw does exactly what I want it to but as you can see the first set of <p> tags have been removed. What's a better way to get this effect? Code: <table cellspacing="10"> <tr> <td class="menu" style="background-color:#8C9429"><a href="lab4-2bsolution.html">Prices</a> <p><a href="http://www.antiquity.ac.uk/">Links</a></p></td> <td class="content">Voytokovich Antiquities is the leadinng wholesaler for Asian, Middle Eastern, and European antiquities.

It calls for a one row, two column borderless table. The first column has two links (one on top of the other), and the second column has three paragraphs of text. Thanks for any suggestions! i set up a large gap for cellpadding with my site and im wondering if i can undo that for 1 object, i want 1 object to be style="float:right; and in the top right area of the screen is there anyway i can undo the cellpadding effect for that object ? 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~ Hi, Is there anyway to script in such a way that if i never enter a specify to a cell, and give it 100% instead, my cell below will go all the way to the bottom by putting my whole table as 100% too? |--------------------------| | | | 100% | | | |--------------------------| | 50px | | | |--------------------------| something like that. well, it actually work in firefox and not IE, and i cant solve the problem. Thanks in advance. 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. Hi there. I am working on this site. There is a problem with a table column spacing though... if this is what it looks like in Firefox (the way its supposed to be...) and this is what happened to it in IE. (dear lord...) the left menu and the content on the right are two adjacent cells of a table. how do i fix this ? it seems ie is giving equal width to both the cells. which explains the gap. i've tried using: Code: <td width=180> and also: Code: <colgroup span="2"> <col width="180"></col> <col width="500"></col> </colgroup> but none of them work. please help me out.. the page is available at > http://ramniquesingh.googlepages.com/index.html the .css file is available at > http://ramniquesingh.googlepages.com/default_style.css thanks. Code: <table border="0" width="900" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td> Text part 1</td> <td> Text Part 2</td> </tr> </table> Hi All i have the above piece of code which shows a 2 colum table. How can i set the widths of my cols to match the width of the text that is in it? I.e set col 1 to the width of text that is in it ( will not always be same length) and have cols 2 start as soon as this finishes. Im assuming this is a simple thing to do but im just not sure. Has now been sorted. Code: <td class="row5" style="text-align:center;" width="50"> <b style="font-size:15px; color:#c9c5be; font-family:Georgia;">2</b> <span style="color:#c9c5be;">topics</span> <br /> <b style="font-size:15px; color:#c9c5be; font-family:Georgia;">1</b> <span style="color:#c9c5be;">posts</span><br /><br /> </td> I'm not sure how it's looking in IE, but in Firefox all the text in this table cell is aligned to the right. I can't figure out why. Row5 only adds a background color and nothing else. http://sa.zrkonium.net/ It's visible here ^ The grey topics/posts text is aligned to the right in Firefox rather than in the center where it should be. I can't figure out why it's not aligning right. Any help appreciated. |
