Hi,<br><br>Could anyone suggest why the following code works fine in Internet Explorer, but looks nothing like the desired results in Netscape?<br><br>If possible, is there a resource on the web to explain why Netscape does this, or suggest how I could make changes to the table so it looks the same in Netscape?<br><br><br>Thanks in advance,<br><br>M.<br><br><br><br>---------------------------------------<br><html><br><head><br><title>Title</title><br><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"><br></head><br><br><body topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><br><table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" height="100%"><br> <tr><br> <td height="64">Q</td><br> <td height="64" width="16">Q</td><br> </tr><br> <tr><br> <td height="16">Q</td><br> <td height="16" width="16">Q</td><br> </tr><br> <tr><br> <td>Q</td><br> <td width="16">Q</td><br> </tr><br> <tr><br> <td height="16">Q</td><br> <td height="16" width="16">Q</td><br> </tr><br></table><br></body><br></html><br>---------------------------------------

Netscape & IE4 tables - problems with formatting

- Start date
one thing is for sure: netscape doesn't handle % !<br><br><table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" height="100%"><br><br>this won't work in netscape...<br><br>and <td height="64">Q</td> height in the <td> is not a smart thing to do either...<br><br>use a transparent gif of size 1x1 px and stretch it the size you want! like this:<br><br><td><img src="spacer.gif" width="1" height="64">Q</td><br><br>u c?<br><br>

I dont want to start the browser war all over again, but does netscape have any sizing for tables at all? <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href= </a><br>Experienced in , or have messed with : VC++, Borland C++ Builder, VJ++6(starting),VB-Dos, VB1 thru VB6, Delphi 3 pro, Borland C++ 3(DOS), Borland C++ 4.5, HTML,Visual InterDev 6, ASP(WebProgramming), QBasic(least i didnt start with COBOL)

If you create two different tables, one for IE, and one for netscape, then combine the two using javascript, you could get the same results.<br><br>when ever you place a tag that needs a different size for each browser, just insert a javascript if-then-else statement. <br><br>It can get verry legnthy, but its worth it if you have the time. <p>theEclipse<br><a href=mailto:eclipse_web@hotmail.com>eclipse_web@hotmail.com</a><br><a href=robacarp.webjump.com>robacarp.webjump.com</a><br>**-Trying to build a documentation of a Javascript DOM, crossbrowser, of course.

well if it were for Active Server Pages, just have a serverside javascript(or vbscript, since server-side remains compatible) to import the size sniplets rather than writing two seperate tables. <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href= </a><br>Experienced in , or have messed with : VC++, Borland C++ Builder, VJ++6(starting),VB-Dos, VB1 thru VB6, Delphi 3 pro, Borland C++ 3(DOS), Borland C++ 4.5, HTML,Visual InterDev 6, ASP(WebProgramming), QBasic(least i didnt start with COBOL)
Dear Karl,<br><br>You asked:<br>>but does netscape have any sizing for tables at all? <br><br>I think I remember reading a great article where that was discussed in the last few issues of Web Techniques. If you look around their web site you might be able to find it. I'm sorry I don't have a direct URL for the article.<br><br>Good luck<br>-pete
