% in Netscape???

I have a Table on my page. The width and the hieght of this table is set to 100%.

In this table I have two TD's. The width and hieght of the second td are set to 100%, the width of the first is set to 140px; This because I dont want it to get any smaller.

In The first TD there are some divs, and the divs contains tables.

In the second TD I have a div that has the hieght and width set to 100%.

This works like I want it to in IE. But in netscape the div or the td thinks is should be 100% of the table??? or???? Because the div continues outside my frame... So I have to scroll the frame....

I would like to set the width and height with % because then it will resize if the browser is resized.......

Uhm... red flag. It is my understanding that the standards do not dictate the order in which these cells are to be allocated. One browser may give the 140px and then give the rest of the space to the other cell, while another browser allocates 100% of the space and leaves the fixed-width cell with nothing.

Neither of these browsers would be wrong. This would be the designers fault.

Double check the standards, though. I don't think it dictates how the UA allocates space.

Make sure this div is set to relative and not absolut positioning. I should take 100% of it's container. If it has no container, then the document body becomes the container.

Also, as a matter of good design, don't use a table to control the page layout like this. Use divs, that is what they are for.
