    HTML Weird Lineup Prob !

    Hi all, I've got the following that I'm stumped on. Any help which can be given to help me understand why this is happening would be appriciated.

    I've got a page(pic attatched) with my select listbox down the left of this page. This listbox is in a table, and I've used :
    Code:
    <TD Rowspan="3">
        <Select Multiple style="height:310px; width:65%">
        <Option>A</Option> ...
        <Option>Z</Option>
        </Select>
    </TD>
    To make it spread accross 3 rows of the table (the attached pic shows the table outline). Unfortunatly, I've had to set the height in pixels to take up the full height of these rows. I can use a percentage figure with the width, but as soon as I try this with the height, none of the listbox shows ?!??!?!
    Any ideas why this would happen Thanks!

    What is setting the height of the rows? Perhaps if you set the select to 100% and set each tr to 104px.

    Thanks CT. The rows are left (no fixed height apart from the other <select> listbox above. I've got text in these, so it auto wraps & creates the height of these itself when viewed in different resolutions.
