[css-d] Inflexible table
Dear CSSers: I've had a heck of a time getting this layout to flex; no amount of CSS has helped, I'm at my wits end. I have Web pages that are partially system generated, so I cannot manipulate all the code and am forced to use a table. However, the text table on the left does not resize when the page is smaller, causing either the book jacket image to cover the navigation on the right or push the tables below the navigation. I cannot find what is forcing the width on the table to stay and not change with the size of the browser. Example page: http://mylibraryeu.fmwr.net/record=b1220688~S1 Any help and/or suggestions are GREATLY appreciated (I'm also trying to make it look better ;-) )!! Thank you! :-) -- In peace, Amy M.

Re: [css-d] Inflexible table
Any help and/or suggestions are GREATLY appreciated I have discovered that the margin-right on #aelbibDisplayLayout is causing this. If you set that margin to 0 (instead of 200px) that fixes it. I have no idea why though.] Also, it appears that you have two identical selectors in your CSS file, both of which set the right margin on that table. Line 260 set it to 205px. And then line 264 over-rules that and sets it to 200px. ---Tim __ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
Re: [css-d] Inflexible table
I thought the same thing but it doesn't work on Mac - Firefox 3.5.7 I just put a table on the page with no css. The table does the same thing. It gets to a point where it will not resize smaller. jason On Feb 18, 2010, at 8:58 AM, Climis, Tim wrote: Any help and/or suggestions are GREATLY appreciated I have discovered that the margin-right on #aelbibDisplayLayout is causing this.

Re: [css-d] Inflexible table
Dear Tim et al: Great, thank you for the suggestion! It is baffling, but after some tweaking based on suggestions, it is now flexible... no clue why, but it works. :-) -- In peace, Amy M.
