HTML - Text To Wrap Inline In Table Cell
G'day guys,
This will probably be a simple one for you. I have a table set to 150px, it has to be this width, and I need to have text indented in each cell. Trouble is, when the text wraps to the next line in the cell, it doesn't stay inline or indented. How do I get the text to stay indented when it travels to the next line? Thanks very much for any help you can give me. Cheers, Jamie Similar TutorialsHi, I'm working on an ecommerce website, my problem is that I cannot make some text in a cell wrap. Here's the details: The text in this particular cell is page numbers, and it is dynamically generated, so it changes depending on what the user selects in the shop. For example, if they are viewing a category that only has a couple pages of product, it's fine. But if they are viewing a category that has a couple hundred pages of product, the page number goes out horizontal in a straight line, and obviously causes some serious horizontal scrolling. I've tried setting a fixed width for the cell both in the <td> with width="whatever" and that didn't work, I tried setting it in the stylesheet with CSS but it still breaks the table. I just want it to wrap down a line when it gets to a certain width. Any ideas? When you format some text in a table cell (at least with <p> or <li> tags), some browsers drop it down one line, so that it can't fully valign top. Apparently Safari and Firefox do this. (IE seems to not do it - it valigns it to the top). Others may exhibit this behaviour, but these are all I've tested. Here is an example (view with Safari or Firefox to see problem): http://www.fisheyemedia.net/test/ Is there any way around this? Maybe with CSS? I have a more complex table in 2 columns and am trying to get vertical alignments to match. Thanks. 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.

This can be done in a regular text using the WORD-BREAK:BREAK-ALL; attribute But I tried this on the button and it's not working? Is there any work around for that? any css attribut? The table itself is working fine, but the size of each cell is not correct in Firefox.

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 there, I need some help with this page: I can't get the "In this section:" link list to go to the right of the body text of the page and have the body text wrap around it. I'm also having trouble getting all the different headings and paragraphs to work right -- even if I set the CSS to display:block; the different headings display as inline elements. To get around this I've had to assign them all a width of 860 px -- which I think might be contributing to the problem getting the link list to go to the right of the body text, but horizontally aligned with the top heading. Thanks for any help you can give!

I'm not a genious at HTML so if you could make it easy to understand that would be great. Thanks in advance. Hi... I have two (hopefully simple) questions: First, is there any way to make a table resize automatically to fit a browser window regardless of the size of the window when the table contains images? I know how to make the table fit the window using <width="85%">, but that only works to a certain point. What I would like to have the image resize itself as the table shrinks. Is this possible? Also, How do I get text to wrap around an image. Like have the image in the upper left corner. Then the text would start at the top of the image directly to it's right and continue on to the bottom of the image. Then it would drop down below the image all the way to the images left edge. I hope I am asking this correctly. Thanks in advance! I was given some Java Script code to put in an HTML formatted file. The java script will randomly create an image. What I would like to do do is add text and make it so the text starts at the top of the image and not the bottom like it's doing now. In short, I'd like to have the text wrap around the image that the java script creates. Is this possible, and how do I do it? Hello All, I am increasing the font size of the text using javascript. In IE, the div size increases or text get automatically wrapped when font size increased. But in firefox browser, the div size remain same and text flows out of the div. Anybody having any idea to correct his behavior in firefox? Please help. Here's my code: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>MyTitle</TITLE> <STYLE type="text/css"> .quanswer { border:1px solid #00c; } .quanswer img { margin-right:5px; cursor:pointer; width:20px; } .text { display:inline; color:#bbb; background:#000; } </STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <DIV class="quanswer"> <IMG src="graphics/qucheckbox_normal.png"> <DIV class="text">Agree</DIV> </DIV> <BR> <DIV class="quanswer"> <IMG src="graphics/qucheckbox_normal.png"> Disagree </DIV> </BODY> </HTML> It references a 20x20 PNG image but you should get the idea wiithout such an image. All I want to do is make the text vertically-aligned to halfway up the image. Centralised, in other words. I've been trying to do it by adding a bottom margin to the text, or by adding a negative top margin to the image, but nothing works! I've got a feeling I'm forgetting something really obvious... Please help, Seymour. 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 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? |
