darnit, I know TONS about HTML, but not that. You have tested me, and I have failed http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif

Instead of just the <table> lead tag, start the tag like this:

<table border="0" width="80%" height="326">

and put in the numbers you want for border, width, and height. Width is what i think you are refering to, 100% would be full page, etc...

maybe you can define "wrap to the page" a little better?

I am not sure what you mean but I you could look at how the tables are done on one of my pages. (http://www.geocities.com/jad1097/misc.html) I don't know much about HTML but I use a wyswyg editor.

by "wrap to page" i meant that i want the text to wrap within it. such as within a post here on SysOpt. look at the following and you'll see what i am wanting to solve.

that above causes the window to be scrolled over. what i want is a way to make the text automatically wrap within the table.

if you need a further example i will provide it.

mgordon99-
at my site, we have to cater to different screen resolutions and such, so we can't use actual values on most things; we must use percentages. but thank you for the help anyway.


thanks,

Hi Cujo, please don't cause *our* windows to scroll over ok? http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif For the purpose of clarity, a series of too-long, unbroken characters will cause the page to format longer than the standard 800x600 for this site. I have added line breaks to the above series of characters. Thanks.
