    HTML: Tables & the '*' [--RESOLVED--]

    When using franes I know that you can use the '*' to show a colum/row uses up all the space left over. But when using Tables is there something similar to this?

    The problem is that when my tables height increases some of the cells streach out their heights bigger than are set in thier Height property. I have left a row which doesn't have a height property filled out but that doesn't seem to help.

    Does anyone have any ideas, Thanx.

    Have you tried using percentages? That way your table will be flexible but still maintain the correct heights.
    format your code!! - [vbcode] [/vbcode]

    Yeah I tried %'ages but it just seemed to ignore me. Its like the heights are just their for the minimum height and if the content in one of the other cells is taller it just proportionally adds height to the other cells. Whereas I'd prefer certain cells to take up this extra room and others to be fixed. Note: I'm using quite a few rowspan's & colspan's.

    Kinda fixed it, just redsigned the whole table, isn't how I wanted but its better than the problem I had. The main content area is a bit smaller but now it displays .
