DW 8 - Table Height 100%

What's the secret to get it to work?
I have a table at the top of my site that contains a masthead
graphic, below that - I have another table that I want to extend
all the way down 100%. I have that table height set to 100% as I
did when I had DW mx, but for some reason - it doesn't work now.
I'm viewing the site on IE 7 and Firefox.
Thanks

Table height is not deprecated. It was never a part of the
HMTL specs.

Setting table height to fill browser window

I am trying to create a table that fills the browser window
it is in. See
http://www.hopkinsandporter.com/about/careers.shtml
for an example. I applied a height of 100% to the table. Doesn't
work. I also used CSS to create a style
.table {height: 100%}
but this doesn't work either. Any suggestions?

RC Table with height=100% disappears

Hi JDev gang
Under JDev 11g TP2, I've an issue with the RC table control.
I've dragged and dropped a VO data control onto my page and created an <af:table>. I've then placed the <af:table> inside an <af:panelCollection> with defaults values. If I change the panelCollection's height to 100%, at runtime the table does not render inside the browser. However if I set it to a pixel height it works fine.
My code as follows:
<af:panelCollection inlineStyle="height:100%;">
<af:table ..... all the usual table attribute suspects>
</af:table>
</af:panelCollection>As a side note, setting the panelCollection's width = 100% works fine.
Any idea what's going on?
Regards,
CM.

Hi Chris,
This is a common frustration I have seen with web browsers. Percentage based heights are not reliable.
I see there is a release note that specifically addresses this at:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/htdocs/11tp/readme.html#faces2
Scroll down to the "Page Layout Tips" section for a good explanation of how to avoid using percentage-based heights.

Matt

Table Height in Dreamweaver CS3

Why is it that I'm unable to make my table height stretch to
fit the browser? I never had this problem when I used FrontPage. Is
there some code I need to add by hand to make it work? I've
double-checked the table height and cell height and they are both
at 100%.
Thanks in advance!

> Why is it that I'm unable to make my table height

Table height is invalid HTML. DW likes to work with valid
HTML. To make
sure that your page validates, DW adds a valid and complete
doctype to each
new page you create. When a browser sees a page with a valid
and complete
doctype, it renders the page in Standards mode, ignoring any
invalid HTML it
encounters. Thus DW pages will result in your table heights
being ignored
in the browser. FP had no sense of this detail, and threw
invalid code out
like a Pez dispenser, hence your invalid construction seemed
to work.

Img size height="100%" OK?

I want my images to it in the viewer's window.
Making the height="100%" does that. But only if I do not
specify a width.
It works in Safari on my Mac. Firefox displays the image in
native size. Are there browsers that will distort the image?
Here is my test page, using 97% for the height.
http://tinyurl.com/rasxc
Is there a way to do this with tables or div or ? Since all
browsers don't work with img %s, perhaps my only choice is to wrap
the image in a Flash movie.

I agree... Sizing your images doesn't seem like a good idea
at all..
If you really "must" display your images this way, then I
think the
crash's take on it is quite good.
Maybe there is also a javascript which would do the job, but
I tend to
stay away from js as the user may smiply have it disabled...

Table height in layout development

Hello there,
               I have defined a table in the layout which has a header and a row. Now, I have another table is displayed (using repeating subforms not with standard table layout). When my data is getting printed, if the inner table is blank, then it is currently leaving a blank space on its place. I want the height to be reduced if there is no data in the inner table.
                 I have checked that all the subforms used in the ROW part are FLOWED. However I doubt that, it is taking minimum height of the ROW.
                Please let me know if there is any way to reduce height automatically when there is less data to be printed.
Thanks & regards,
Ganesh V Khumse

Table height issue

Hey,
on my website below :
http://www.scenekill.com/parkway/home.php
just made a rough mock up of it to test everything, and this
is probably something dead simple, but I have a big table with a
bunch of smaller ones in it and the main one has a width of 670px
and the height is set to 100% so even when this isn't enough
content to stretch down to the bottom the border will still go all
the way down, but as you can see from my site this isn't happening.
Just wondered if anyone can see what i'm doing wrong?
thanks in advance

Here's the deal.
A doctype on an HTML page tells the browser how to render the
page. If
there is no doctype, or if there is an invalid one, the page
is rendered in
quirks mode. If there is a valid doctype, the page is
rendered in standards
mode.
DMX inserted a broken doctype on the page (i.e., functionally
equivalent to
no doctype). Earlier versions inserted NO doctype. Hence, all
these pages
are rendered in quirks mode.
In quirks mode, the browser makes an attempt to render
invalid HTML. Not
all browsers attempt the same rendering - so you will see a
variety of
differences, comparing one browser to the next on the same
page.
In standards mode, the browsers all render the same (so they
say - but in
practice, while not true, it's much more uniform).
Table height is invalid HTML. It always has been - it was
never a part of
HTML's specs.
Browsers in quirks mode will try to render table heights.
Browsers in
standards mode willl not.

Contribute doesn't let us remove table HEIGHT value that IT PUT IN

IE displays tables incorrectly when a "Height" value is set
on a <table> tag, also this markup doesn't validate. So I
need to give instructions to Contribute users I support for how to
remove the table height values from the pages they created with
Contribute... only CONTRIBUTE doesn't provide a way to do this!!!
Try this:
1. create a new document in Contribute with only one table
with three rows and three columns and populate it with text
table width: 600
border: 1
cellpadding & cellspacing: 0
first col: 300 px
second col: 150 px
third col: 150 px
2. Publish and view source code: no height tags.
3. Open the document again for Editing in Contribute.
Select the entire table (click inside the table, then Table
> Select Table), then drag the lower edge to make it taller.
This adds a heights value to the <table> tag. Confirm
this by publishing and viewing source.
4. Now TRY to remove that height value in Contribute. It is
impossible.
This doesn't work:
Table > Select Table, Table > Table Cell Properties...
, click "Row and Column" tab, click "Fit to Contents" radio button.
This also doesn't work:
Selecting the table and dragging it smaller.
Maybe I am overlooking something?

Hi Ibarim,
verticalAlignment will not work for VBox when you have two or more children and which are direct children. When you have only one direct children for VBox then it will work. Normally we use verticalAlignment="middle" for HBox and not VBox. Since VBox lays out its children vertically this property won't work when you have more than 1 children.
You can try this
<mx:VBox id="vb1" width="400" height="100%" verticalAlign="middle">
<mx:VBox id="vb2" width="200" height="50%">
</mx:VBox>
</mx:VBox>
<mx:VBox id="vb1" width="400" height="100%" verticalAlign="middle">
     <mx:CheckBox id="chk" label="My CheckBox"/>
</mx:VBox>
The above two combinations work correctly as you have only one immediate children....But if you see the below case...
<mx:VBox id="vb1" width="400" height="100%" verticalAlign="middle">
     <mx:VBox id="vb2" width="200" height="50%" backgroundColor="yellow" verticalAlign="middle">
          <mx:CheckBox label="Check Box"/>
         <mx:VBox id="vb3" width="200" height="50%" backgroundColor="blue">
          </mx:VBox>
     </mx:VBox>
</mx:VBox>
Now in the above case you can see that VBox vb2 is vertically aligned middle in the VBox vb1 as vb2 is the only one direct child of VBox vb1. Whereas now in the VBox vb2 Check Box and VBox vb3 are not vertically aligned in the VBOx vb2 as because now VBox vb2 contains two children.
Hope this is clear and make you understand the problem.
Thanks,
Bhasker

N00b question - Setting Table Heights

I have a table inside a layer, i want to set that table to
have lets say 10 columns and i want the entire table height to be
100 px.
What happens is that the table doesn't change its size, what
happens is that the table is larger then the div itself in the
page.
So how do i change it and limit the table height as I wish?

Shrinking a container will not force the contents to also
shrink. A table's
height is determined by its contents, no matter what the
height of the
table's container is.
Just for the record, table height is invalid HTML (always has
been), and
will be ignored by modern browsers on pages that have valid
and complete
doctypes.

Table heigth=100% in Main Portal Template?

Where can we add the height=100% table tag to make our Navigation Region stretch to 100% as well?
The outer html-table that Oracle Portal automatically creates seems only to use the following tags:
...</SCRIPT>
<TABLE BORDER="0" CELLSPACING="0" CELLPADDING="0" WIDTH="100%" background="/images/pobtrans.gif" HEIGHT="5"><TR ALIGN="LEFT">
we use Oracle Portal Version: 9.0.4.1.0 (Build: 129)
(Linux)
Cheers,
Gerhard

Dear Candace,
sorry for not replying for so long. First, thanks, second, we managed the "problem" by entering a gif with the navigation-bar background color with the exact width and made the rest of it transparent (about 3000 px width) and placed it as as background image in the body tag of the UI Template.
That worked for us ("old-school" HTML programming again)

How to find out which plugin is missing ( embed width="100%" height="100%" messagecallback="parent.frames.MANIPULATIONS.AppendMessage" spinfps="15" spiny="30")?

How to find out which plugin is missing fro mthe website: http://web.it.nctu.edu.tw/~twli/interactive/scr_tutf.htm?
After looking at one similar question found in mozilla support and answered by jscher2000 (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/957655), I have found out I have to look for either <object or <embed. What I found is : <embed width="100%" height="100%" messagecallback="parent.frames.MANIPULATIONS.AppendMessage" spinfps="15" spiny="30"
What do I have to do now?

This big1.mol (and possibly big2.mol) file is loaded in the embed plugin object that is opened in a iframe, so you can right-click the plugin area to check the embed code.

Dynamic table height for Printed PO Report

I have created a RTF template for Printed Purchase Order report using Microsoft Word. The template has Header and Line information. I have two questions.
1) Lines are printed in Table format. I also print header level notes in Line Section.
If the header notes are blank, I want the line information (line #, Item Number, Description, quantity etc) to be moved to line1. How do I acheive this?
I want to dynamically adjust the Table height based on the information printing in the line section. The table has two rows. One for Header notes and one for Line information.
2) Header notes field is placed in Description column of Line Table (MS word). Currently Header notes are printing within the Description column as wrapped text. I want to print Header notes in one line. How do I expand this field to print in one line?
Thanks,

Hi,
Even I faced the same problem, however I have found a workaround to come out of this problem.
My PO design template has 16 lines, I am counting the number of lines with data and subtracting the same from 16 and inserting that many empty rows to increase the table height.
I am pasting the code so that it will be useful for others.
Paste this code before LINES_ROW for-each loop. This will give the number of lines present.
<xsl:variable name="_XDOFOTOTAL" select="count(.//LINES_ROW)"/>
Paste this code at the end of the for-each loop.

<xsl:variable name="_cnt" select="16-$_XDOFOTOTAL"/>
<xsl:call-template name="countdown">
<xsl:with-param name="countdown" select="16-$_XDOFOTOTAL"/>
</xsl:call-template>
This function you can put it at the end.
<xsl:template name="countdown">

<xsl:param name="countdown"/>
     <xsl:if test="$countdown">
          <fo:table-row keep-together="always">
          <fo:table-cell/>
          <fo:table-cell>
          <fo:block height="13.2pt"/>
          </fo:table-cell>
          <fo:table-cell>
          <fo:block height="13.2pt"/>
          </fo:table-cell>
          <fo:table-cell xdofo:use-attribute-sets="c_33 c_35">
          <fo:block height="13.2pt"/>
          </fo:table-cell>
          <fo:table-cell xdofo:use-attribute-sets="c_33 c_35">
          <fo:block height="13.2pt"/>
          </fo:table-cell>
          <fo:table-cell>
          <fo:block height="13.2pt"/>
          </fo:table-cell>
          <fo:table-cell>
          <fo:block height="13.2pt"/>
          </fo:table-cell>
          <fo:table-cell>
          <fo:block height="13.2pt"/>
          </fo:table-cell>
          <fo:table-cell/>
          </fo:table-row>
          
          
          <xsl:call-template name="countdown">
               <xsl:with-param name="countdown" select="$countdown - 1"/>
          </xsl:call-template>

Fixed Table Height for PO Report

Hi,
We have a problem in adjusting the height of the table for Purchase order Report.We are displaying lines and shipment information in the table.
But the shipments data is varying for each line due to which the table height is also varying on each page.
We tried fixing this by counting lines but this didn't help.
Cant we fix the table height so that it runs throughout the page irrespective of the number of lines it contains and gets attached to the footer information at the Bottom of the page.
Urgent help required.
Thanks in advance.

My suggestion would be to figure out the maximum number of lines the layout can handle and fix that number. Then modify the program that generates the XML output to create that many lines i.e. if the max number is 50 and your PO contains 2 lines, create 48 additional dummy blank lines so that the layout is always satisfied. For overflows, i.e PO contains 52 lines, make sure the program handles it.
Just my suggestion. I've used it for AP checks, where the layout is stub over check and it works great.

Table Height Missing in DW CS3?

I just upgraded from DW8 to CS3. The Properties panel is
missing the table height fields. I see width, but where height is
supposed to be is blank...
I tried searching for "table" in help and couldn't find an
answer. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Jose

In response to the web community at large, each new version
of DW is moving
more and more in the direction of producing so-called valid
code and
formatting pages exclusively via CSS.
"height" has never been a valid attribute of the HTML
<table> tag, even
though some browsers have honoured it, so it has finally been
removed from
the DW interface.
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/tables.html#h-11.2.1
See
http://www.apptools.com/examples/tableheight.php
Also, FYI, here's an example of formatting a table-based
layout with CSS:
http://www.projectseven.com/tutorials/css/css_td/index.htm
In any case, it's good practice on the web to allow your
tables to collapse
to suit their content.
