Default Table and column widths - 07-16-2004 , 03:19 PM






Hi -
I am new to the MX Suite. Been using GoLive for years. Seing the light :-).
Is there a way to get DW to automactically calculate the size of a column after
the other columns have had their width set? Especially when you are using a
cell padding.

Example:
Table Width= 500 with a cell padding of 3, cell space = 0 and border = 0
3 rows/ 3 cols. I set Col1 to 100 px, col 2 to 100 px. Now I don't want to
have to manually calculate the width of the last column minus the pixels for
cell padding.

So what magic button do I click so that DW will set the width of the last col
to the correct size without blowing away the overall table width?

Thanks a bunch
Ravi

The one that clears the widths and the one that clears the heights. Those
values are not a reliable method for structuring a table and are best
avoided, except to assign 100% to columns that should fill up the rest of
the width.
