Tables - Help! -

As a new user to Dreamweaver MX 2004, can someone tell me where I am going wrong with my tables. When I design a table with say 1 row & 2 columns, the 1st column I fix at 150px the 2nd column is 100% When I have content in the 2nd column I expect it to shrink/expand depending on the size of the browser window. It doesn't! My table width is 100% border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 Can anyone shed any light on this please. Thanks |
How did you specify the width of the 1st cell? If you want to hold it open
to that exact width, use a transparent shim inserted into the cell at that
width, or use css.
It should work as you describe, but it depends on how you are holding that
1st cell open I guess.

A little something I put together to show how a table resizes - regardless
of table width, when you change the window viewport.
At the bottom of that page are references to other table tutorials that may
be of help as well.

Just before I close for the night
unless you mean the table on the link I posted.
/*class for table border tutorial*/
..bordertable{
border:1px solid #660000;
padding:2px 4px 2px 4px;
}
That is a pretty basic style though so it didn't conflict with anything else
on the page.
I would also add a width to the class if it were on a 'proper' page.
Hope this is what you were asking about

The table that Kezele asked about. Table is 1 row, 2 columns. First col is 150 pixels wide, 2nd column is 100%. How do you write the css for this? |
since the table width is set to 100%, but I made a class anyway):
<style type="text/css">
<!--
..leftCell {
width: 150px;
}
..rightCell {
width: 100%;
}
..table {
width: 100%;
}
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="table">
<tr>
<td class="leftCell">Blah blah blah</td>
<td>Blah blah blah</td>
</tr>
</table>

Cheers Nadia. I'll take a look at the pages you suggest and probably stay out of layout mode for a while!! |
You're welcome,
stay out of layout mode 'forever' not a while :-D
Good Luck and post back when you need more help at any time.
