liquid design problem

alalex

i created a sort of liquid web, and i did a table with width=100% and height=100%, and it works fine for the width, but the height is not affected by that!
what can i do!
Sad

can you paste exactly what your table tag looks like? (or your css)

alalex

o thanks, but i just realized what my problem was!!
i had a layer with width of about 50px and a scroll option, but the text inside was way longer than just 50px, and althought it displayed only 50px of text, the browser made my table shrink and the layer take over some white space...
thanks anyway! Very Happy

PS: now i used a textarea instead of a layer...

your website isn't a fluid design!! its static at 1024 screen resolution... anyways i think i missed out something.

o, the website i was referring to is not the one my banner points to, is another one im designing for a client.
its still at work, but this is the actual look

WHile tables do work with liquid designs I would try designing the layout without tables and use <div>'s instead. The design works until you start to get below a width of 600px then it starts causing elements to overlap each other. This could be the situation with <div>'s as well but they will often realign themselves and move the better accomidate the width of the browser.

Other than that the layout looks very clean.

thanks, i will try to build websites with div aligning, but for now ill stick with tables, is the way i learned, and the other will take me a few weeks to learn..
thanks Very Happy

wow alalex, your coding is structured, like what program did you use to code the HTML of the website?

alalex

thanks!
i usually use dreamweaver, but most of the times i just use html editor, is free Wink

and fast to load and all. dreamweaver is good, but is makes my computer quite slow..if i run it at the same tima as photoshop and other progrms...

what a clean looking design. the code is nice as well.. I am just learning tables at school. Hopefully I would be designing my own templates by the end of this year or so .
