Sorry for the silly question I haven't written web pages for a while. Am I right that when you enter the "td width="50"" it Constrains the table cell to 50 units? I find that the size of the table and cells are data dependent which is causing a major problem. When I use a repeat region, the fields are appearing un-uniform and dis-jointed. table width="178" border="1" tr td width="50"><span class="style1"><%=(PropertyDatabase.Fields.Item("R oad").Value)%></span></td td width="50"><%=(PropertyDatabase.Fields.Item("Count y").Value)%></td td width="50"><span class="style1"><%=(PropertyDatabase.Fields.Item("C ity").Value)%></span></td td width="4"><span class="style1"><%=(PropertyDatabase.Fields.Item("B edrooms").Value)%></span /td td width="8"><%=(PropertyDatabase.Fields.Item("Post Code").Value)%></td td width="6"><%=(PropertyDatabase.Fields.Item("Post Code").Value)%></td td width="5"><span class="style1"><%=(PropertyDatabase.Fields.Item("R ef No:").Value)%></span></td /tr /table Thanks in advance for you help Paul |

A TD width setting is designed to create the minumum width of the column, however it is not consistent across browsers. If the content of the column is wider and there is room to adjust the render will. -- Regards Paul Whitham Macromedia Certified Professional for Dreamweaver MX2004 Valleybiz Internet Design www.valleybiz.net Team Macromedia Volunteer for Ultradev/Dreamweaver MX www.macromedia.com/support/forums/team_macromedia "news (AT) blueyonder (DOT) co.uk" <delete007 (AT) blueyonder (DOT) co.uk> wrote in message news:t6WPc.41800$a8.11316 (AT) fe2 (DOT) news.blueyonder.co.uk...

Thanks Paul. I'm viewing the table in "IE 6" and the table cell doesn't meet the required minimum if the data is smaller than the specified td width="50". And in most cases the table doesn't meet the minimum width either. How do I constrain a table to a minimum width, and if possible a maximum in IE.

You can't really contrain to a maximum or a minimum using the td tags. The most common way of doing it is to have a 1pixel high row and into each place a transparent spacer images with the size set to the minimum you want. -- Regards Paul Whitham Macromedia Certified Professional for Dreamweaver MX2004 Valleybiz Internet Design www.valleybiz.net Team Macromedia Volunteer for Ultradev/Dreamweaver MX www.macromedia.com/support/forums/team_macromedia "news (AT) blueyonder (DOT) co.uk" <delete007 (AT) blueyonder (DOT) co.uk> wrote in message news:ZO0Qc.44994$a8.24957 (AT) fe2 (DOT) news.blueyonder.co.uk...
