HTML - Problem With Textarea Within A Table Cell
Hello,
I have a table more o less defined as follows: Code: <table border = 2> <tr><th colspan=2 align=center>GENERAL TABLE NAME</th></tr> <tr><th colspan=2 align = center>ANOTHER GENERAL NAME</th></tr> <tr><th>Col1</th><th>Col2</th></tr> <tr><td>Att1</td><td>Att2</td></tr> <tr><td colspan=2> <textarea cols=??? rows=???> <%=XMLString%=> </textarea></td> </tr> </table> I have the following problem: The table is shown but it needs to be printed... so I cannot use a textarea with scrolling option.... I need the textarea to be completely seen. What I need to write is a XML string... Is there a way of knowing the number of lines contained by this string (so I could put it in the rows parameter)? Another thing, I would like the textarea to completely fit within the 2 columns.... how can I do it? May be is there another way of doing it, without using textarea? Thanks for your help Similar TutorialsHi, I have a template made that my friend made in photoshop and slice the image to be able to put them in html.

The real page is much more complicated and uses proper styling, but I simplified it into the code below. The inline CSS sets the height of each individual cell and then the last cell is not provided with a height. I would love for the last cell to take the rest of the available height. I've tried many things to try and get this to work (like setting the height to 100%). The page renders how I expect it to in every browser I've tested except for the IE series. It seems as though Internet Explorer decides to ignore my row heights and calculate its own for some reason. Also, using a fixed height for the last cell is not possible due to how dynamic the web page is. Does anyone have any tips? HTML Code: <table style="table-layout:fixed;" border=1 width=100%> <tr> <td style="height:17px;width:150px;"> </td> <td style="height:600px" colspan=3 rowspan=5>This should span all of the rows and the remaining columns</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="height:17px;width:150px;"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td style="height:17px;width:150px;"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td style="height:17px;width:150px;"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>This cell should take the rest of the available column height area</td> </tr> </table> Thank you. Hello all, I have the following table, however, my height seem to be changing: Code: <table width="100%"> <tr> <td height="50" width="50%"> CELL1</td> <td rowspan="3" valign="top" width="50%"> WRITING GOES HERE</td> </tr> <tr> <td height="50" width="50%"> CELL2</td> </tr> <tr> <td height="100%" width="50%"> CELL3</td> </tr> </table> I want cell1 and cell2 to always remain at 50px. cell3, may vary in size depending on how much information is entered into the 'WRITING GOES HERE' section. At present when there is a lot of wiriting in the 'WRITING GOES HERE', cell1 and cell2's height will be much larger that 50px. Any ideas how i can get cell1 and cell2 to remain constan and cell3's height to vary? Much Appreciated. Hi all, Having a bit of trouble with a table layout in IE. The following link renders correctly (or at least as I would like) in Firefox yet in IE the header and navigation bars are too think. I've tried adding a height attribute to all td's concerned, but to no avail. here's the link: http://www.events.ex.ac.uk/ivfdf2009...s/template.php any help you can offer muchly appreciated! I have a very simple table that I cannot simply get to render correctly across IE, Firefox, and Opera. At first, I was using CSS to define the cell widths/heights - when that was giving me issues I got rid of all the CSS and attempted to use plain HTML. The problem persisted. Here's the code - it doesn't get much simpler than this: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE> New Document </TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="1"> <tr> <td width="15" height="33">a</td> <td>b</td> <td>c</td> <td width="15" height="33">d</td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="4" rowspan="1">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.</td> </tr> </table> </BODY> </HTML> Appearance in Opera Appearance in IE7 Appearance in Firefox (this is what I want it to look like in all browsers) I haven't done HTML seriously in 7-8 years or so but I don't really remember having these problems with IE/Netscape. The fix I found for IE was to use style="table-layout: fixed" for the table: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE> New Document </TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="1" style="table-layout: fixed"> <tr> <td width="15" height="33">a</td> <td>b</td> <td>c</td> <td width="15" height="33">d</td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="4" rowspan="1">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.</td> </tr> </table> </BODY> </HTML> Now IE works fine, Firefox didn't break, but Opera's cells still are not 15 pixels. IE7 Appearance fixed Here's my attempt at getting Opera to display it properly by mixing CSS and HTML: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE> New Document </TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="1" style="table-layout: fixed"> <tr> <td style="width: 15px; height: 33px" width="15" height="33">a</td> <td style="height: 33px">b</td> <td style="height: 33px">c</td> <td style="width: 15px; height: 33px" width="15" height="33">d</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="width: 100%" width="100%" colspan="4" rowspan="1">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.</td> </tr> </table> </BODY> </HTML> Opera looks even worse now This seems like such a simple table. I really don't understand why I'm having such a hard time. I believe the second row - using colspan is causing the issue. Please don't answer with - "dont use tables" or something silly like that Thank you -TableTrTd 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. 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? 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? 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. PHP/HTML I have: Code: <td class="calendar-month" align="center"><a class="calendar" href="index.php?site=calendar&month=01">'.mb_substr($_language->module['jan'], 0, 3).'</a></td> CSS: Code: a.calendar, a.calendar:visited, a.calendar:active { font-family: Arial; color: #dbdbdb; font-size: 11px; line-height: 13px; text-decoration: none;} a.calendar:hover { font-family: Arial; color: #dbdbdb; font-size: 11px; line-height: 13px; text-decoration: none;} .calendar-month, calendar-month:visited { font-family: Arial; color: #dbdbdb; font-size: 11px; line-height: 13px; padding: 5px; background-color: #2f2f2f; border-bottom:3px solid #1d1d1d; border-right: 1px solid #000; border-top: 1px solid #424242; border-left: 1px solid #424242;} .calendar-month:active { font-family: Arial; color: #dbdbdb; font-size: 11px; line-height: 13px; padding: 5px; background-color: #2f2f2f; border-bottom:3px solid #1d1d1d; border-right: 1px solid #000; border-top: 1px solid #424242; border-left: 1px solid #424242;} .calendar-month:hover { font-family: Arial; color: #dbdbdb; font-size: 11px; line-height: 13px; padding: 5px; background-color: #3f3f3f; border-bottom:3px solid #1d1d1d; border-right: 1px solid #000; border-top: 1px solid #424242; border-left: 1px solid #424242;} (sorry theres so much css) Thanks in advance =D Hello, I have a problem with tables cells containing form buttons: Code: <tr> <td colspan="2" align="center"> <button id="button-submit_2" type="submit">Add Name</button>      </form> <form action="nrt-home-edit&delete.php" method="post"> <input type="hidden" name="class_name" value="$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 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 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. i want the entire table cell to be the link, not just the text inside any ideas? 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? |
