From: Josh Davis on 16 Feb 2010 05:10 Can someone tell me how to set up the following page to be able fill the entire page so that the table that houses all the content is full page rather than part of the page. the page is: http://shirleysrecipes.awardspace.biz/printlemonpoundcake.htm Thank you,
From: Ronx on 16 Feb 2010 07:26 Change <table border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="640" height="1469" bordercolorlight="#000080" bordercolordark="#000080"> to <table border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" bordercolorlight="#000080" bordercolordark="#000080"> The height attribute in a <table> tag is illegal HTML (though FrontPage sticks it in anyway), and bordercolorlight and bordercolordark will both be ignored by all browsers except IE. -- Ron Symonds Microsoft MVP (Expression Web) http://www.rxs-enterprises.org/fp Reply only to group - emails will be deleted unread.

From: Josh Davis on 20 Feb 2010 10:51 I tried to set the width of the table at 100% and the height undetermined as you can see in http://shirleysrecipes.awardspace.biz/printlemonpoundcake.htm. The problem is that it make one of main site navigation links on the left get forced to the next line which i don't like. ow can i fix that but still keep the size at 100%? Also, my numbered list wants to span to far over into the last cell of the table. How can I make the numbered lst line up flush with the outside main site navigation border?

From: Ronx on 20 Feb 2010 17:31 If this page is ONLY for printing then I would remove the navigation column altogether - it's hard to navigate from a piece of paper without having the entire link to copy. If, on the other hand, it's a page for the website then I would not allow the main column to exceed 650px width. it is difficult to read a line of text that is more than about 6 or 7 inches in width on paper, or 600-700 px width on the screen. To fix your navigation column problem, either reduce the font size (my 1st choice) or make the column wider. Change the font to size="3". The page http://shirleysrecipes.awardspace.biz/lemonpoundcake.htm is much too wide for my 1280px wide monitor. The last thing you want is a bottom scrollbar when there is none required. The lines of text in the recipe are too long for comfortable reading. And the navigation is too busy - remove the background image from behind the buttons. Take a look at http://www.rxs-enterprises.org/tests/pages/lemon_pound_cake.html and try File->Print Preview in Internet Explorer to see the printable version. -- Ron Symonds Microsoft MVP (Expression Web) http://www.rxs-enterprises.org/fp Reply only to group - emails will be deleted unread.
