HTML - Auto Expanding Middle Table
Hi guys, I'm really having a problem here. I'm creating a new instant messenger program and can't get the tables to stretch properly. Firstoff, when the messenger loads, you will not see the address bar, status bar, menu bar, etc.
I want to be able to resize the browser (messenger) window to any size, just like you would with msn for example. I have 3 tables. 1) The first one will contain all the header graphics etc and I want this table to stay aligned to the TOP of the browser window. 2) The middle table is where the chat conversation text will go. The chat text will be aligned to the top of this window. This is the window that I need to stretch to vertically automatically when you resize the browser window. 3) The last table is where the message entry box will be. I want this to stay aligned to the BOTTOM of the browser window. Right now, my MAIN TABLE which contains all of the messenger content does stretch to fit the screen, but how the heck do I get the three tables inside it to be aligned how i need them??? Here is the basic code that I'm working with: <html> <head> <title>Site Title</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css"> </head> <body> <table id="fullheight" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#111111" width="100%"> <tr> <td> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#111111" width="100%"> <tr> <td width="100%">Header goes here - Stays aligned to the top of the browser window</td> </tr> <tr> <td width="100%">Middle chat content - automatically stretches vertically when the browser window is resized</td> </tr> <tr> <td width="100%">Message entry box section - stays aligned to the bottom of the browser window</td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> This is the CSS code that I'm using which makes the MAIN table expand to fit the entire browser window: html, body { margin:0; padding:0; height:100%; border:none } #fullheight{height:100%} Can anyone please help me out? Thanks! Similar Tutorialshi again... Nobody replied to my last post, so I've simplified what I am having trouble with. I have a MAIN table (which holds all of the page content) that is set to automatically scale to 100% height of any size browser window. That part works fine. My problem lies with the content in that main table. 1) I want the blue table to stay aligned to the top of the browser window. 2) I want the green table to automatically stretch vertically to fit any size browser window 3) I want the yellow table to stay aligned to the bottom of the browser window. When I resize the browser window, the green table does not expand properly. I've already tried different <div height="100%"> and <table height="100%"> values and none of them work. The smaller I resize the browser window , the more of the green table is cut off from the bottom, and the yellow table does not scale properly. So in short, the blue table stays at the top, the yellow table stays at the bottom, and i want the green table to scale vertically to fill the remaining space in between when the browser window is scaled vertically. Everything works fine when scaled horizontally. Can someone please help me with this!?!?!?!? Again, here is the basic stripped down version of the html code I have. HTML Code: <html>
<head>
<title>Site Title</title>
</head>
<style>
html, body
{
margin:0px;
height:100%;
width: 100%;
padding: 0px;
}
</style>
<body>
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#111111" height="100%" width="100%">

<td valign="top">
<!-- Top table - Stays at the top of the browser window -->
<div valign=”top”>
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#111111" width="100%">
<tr>
<td width="100%" height="70" bgcolor="#00FFFF">
<p align="center">This table stays aligned to the top of the browser window and stays 70 pixels in height.
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<!-- End of top table -->
<!--Middle table - Stretches vertically to fill remaining space-->
<div valign=”top”>
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bordercolor="#111111" width="100%">
<tr>
<td width="100%" valign="top" bgcolor="#00FF00">
<p align="center">content in this table will be aligned to the top.<br>
I want this table to automatically expand vertically to fill the empty
space between the blue header and the yellow footer.</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<!-- End of middle table -->
<!-- Bottom table - Stays at the bottom of the browser window -->
<div height=”100” valign=”bottom”>
<table height="100" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bordercolor="#111111" width="100%">
<tr>
<td width="100%" height="100" bgcolor="#FFFF00">
<p align="center">I want this footer to stay aligned to the bottom of
the browser window and stays 100 pixels in height</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<!-- End of bottom table -->
</td>

Hi experts, would it be possible for any advice on a header issue please. I have created a website at www.ukdecals.com the website expands to fit most browsers and i've tried it in IE9 and Firefox, to me everything looks fine at my monitor settings of 1152 x 864 pxls But a friend has just sent me a screen shot from his screen on his computer in IE9 and the header seems to not be expanding in length across the page, would anyone one be able to view the source code and see if they could spy the problem, i've looked at it myself and i can't see it, but only learning html in the last couple of months, i'll admit that this ones got me stumped. I'd appreciate any help you could give. Kind Regards Jas.... Hi, I have a problem. I don't get my table in the middle of the page. can someone help me? <removed by me> Got it now, delete this topic please I'm working on a website and I'm running into a problem with the left side cells. http://www.kbrmarketing.com/kbrnew/pages/problem.html If you look at the side on FF (3) is looks correct, but when you look at in in IE (i'm using 7) it's gets stretched out. I want only the bottom cell to expand as the page gets longer. Here's some pictures to help explain < IE < FF I just inserted those line breaks to extend the page to show you guys the problem. Eventually those breaks will be replaced with text and pictures. (the <br>'s are in the right cell, which causes the left cells to then expand) I have a table and it expands. One bottom "Author" row expands when I put data in the top row "Words". How do I stop this from happening. Code: <div id="apDiv20">
<table width="231" height="190" border="0">
<tr>
<td height="23" colspan="3"><div align="justify"><span class="style4 style10">';echo $Title[1]; echo'</span></div></td>
<td height="23"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td height="135" colspan="3">';echo $Words[1]; echo'<div align="justify">
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
</div></td>
<td height="135"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="48" height="23"><span class="style9">Author:</span></td>
<td width="73"><div align="justify"><strong><span class="style3 style10">';echo $author[1]; echo'</span></strong></div></td>
<td width="52"><span class="style13">share</span></td>
<td width="40"><pre class="style2"> </pre></td>
</tr>
</table>

Hi all, I have a table with some data in it. Sometimes the data in one of the cells fills up and it messes up the formatting of the rest of the table. I would like to have the table show a "...." when this happens and then when the user hovers his mouse over this then I want the remaining data to float over the table. Somewhat like a tooltip text. Is there anyway to do this? Thanks in advance for any help, Jehan How do i stop a table from expanding, When i place a image in it that is larger then the table size. The catch is, I dont want to set the any size peramiters in the 'img' tag. table width = 100 px image width = 200 px 100 px = of pixel page killings Thanks I there.

i'm new so please be gentle! I have recently designed and put up a new website. url he http://www.thecomicstrippresents.webs.com it's the first time i have used photoshop to design a website and for a first attempt i dont think it looks half bad. i'm sure as well as looking a whole lot worse, it could look a lot better. first off can someone tell me the ideal resolution i need to save the images as some of the images are grainy and pixely. secondly, can someone suggest what i can use to put content in the mid section? a lot of the content is longer than the box allows so for the time being i have put an Iframe there, the iframe is ok temporarily but will be a bit of a as far as SEO goes and up until i changed to iframe i was coming up second page of a google websearch for 'The Comic Strip Presents' please can you someone help? cheers Em I have my Introduction with the title and all. Then i want my href links on the left side of the picture. However i can't seem to be able to do it.(this is a type of autobiographical site for web design, i am making it as a joke to the current assignment. HOWEVER my teacher isn't able to assist me with this...) Ok here is my code <html> <head> <title>A web site about nothing but video games</title> </head> <body> <h1 align="Center">Chairman of the world</h1> <h4 align="center">This is a site dedicated to Chairman Tide Oo</h4> <hr noshade="1"> <center> <img align="middle" src="http://www.dimensionsguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Orange.jpg"> </center> <a href="_" >Link 1</a> <p>Yes and yes</p> <a href="_">Link 2</a> <p>Why not </p> <a href="_">Link 3</a> <p>Why yes </p> <a href="_">Link 4</a> <p>Ye...no?</p> <a href="_">Link 5</a> <p>YES!</p> <hr noshade="1"> </body> </html> Thank you~ Is there a way so that when you click a link, it will push everything below it down and show what they requested to see. I am planning on this for suggestions and help without users needing to re-load the page. Thanks. Sean Hi all, I have a simple table: Code: <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td colspan="3" rowspan="3">MAIN CONTENT</td>
<td>fixed</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>expandable</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>fixed</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>fixed</td>
<td>expandable</td>
<td>fixed</td>
<td>fixed</td>
</tr>
</table>
The 2 expandable tds need to expand / contract depending on the height and width of the main content cell (as they will have repeating backgrounds) When I try this it is always the other columns that expand or contract. (BTW, this is all for a shadow border for different image sizes) Anyone know how I can achieve this? Thanks! Help, Can anyone tell me why my website is splitting down the middle. In other words when I scroll down it looks like the left half and right half don't match. It happens on all computers. And, how do I fix it? The url is www.gotobreakingthrough.com Thanks Can someone please tell me how to center an iframe vertically on a page. I am feeling really stupid right now that I can't get it. I've tried a few different things and it's not budging!!!! Please help - thanks! Hey guys! On the site I'm working on, I have made overflow:hidden, scrollbars:none, and body scroll=no. It works fine. But when I press and hold the scroll wheel on my mouse to scroll left and right (Middle Click Scrolling), it actually scrolls. How do I disable middle click scrolling? This is my first post here so I apologize if I've done something wrong. Thank you! EDIT: It also scrolls when I use the arrow keys! Help 1st time post and an amatuer with no formal teaching of html. I have placed an image on my web page and i want the text i enter to center itself next to the image. I have used align="Center" or Align="middle" and it does that perfectly for the 1st line of text. The issue is when the text spills over to the next line it goes under the image. I have tried a <br /> after the last word of the lines and that did nothing. How can I get all the lines to be centered? Centered meaning from top to bottom not side to side. Thanks, Cardgunner how do you make it so the video is displayed in the middle of the browser? (I already got it in the center but I want it in the middle of the browser as well) Thanks. <center> <OBJECT ID="MediaPlayer" WIDTH="100" HEIGHT="100" CLASSID="CLSID:22D6F312-B0F6-11D0-94AB-0080C74C7E95" STANDBY="Loading Windows Media Player components..."
