tables (?) question

windows

Guest
I am wondering if it's possible to make a table extend all the way to the bottom of the browser window, using height="100%" or something (though that doesn't work, tried it). Not sure if tables can do this.<br />
<br />
Look here (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.newdawntech.com/images/test/TableTest.htm">http://www.newdawntech.com/images/test/TableTest.htm</a><!-- m -->) for a sample attempt.<!--content-->Hi-<br />
<br />
Yeah add the atribute, height="100%" to the body tag.<br />

<br />
<body height="100%"> does nothing.<br />
<br />
Also, <table height="100%"> works in IE but not in Netscape, which doesn't cut it.<br />
<br />
Can you do this with tables? What about CSS? I'm really looking to have a layout that looks like frames (with a top header bar and a right side nav bar) but isn't frames (cause frames suck).<!--content-->aghhhhh! I'm so sorry. I can't believe I said to put that in the body tag!<br />
<br />
One second, going to go try something with the script.<br />

:D<!--content-->well this was all that I did to your script (in red):<br />
<br />
<html><br />
<head><br />
<title>Table Test</title><br />
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"><br />
</head><br />
<br />
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000" leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"><br />
<table width="100%" height="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><br />
<tr><br />
<td width="66%" height="100%" bgcolor="#999999">&nbsp;</td><br />
<td bgcolor="#333333" width="33%" height="100%"><br />
<p>&nbsp;</p><br />
</td><br />
</tr><br />
</table><br />
</body><br />
</html><br />
<br />
It works fine in both IE5.5 and NS6. <br />
