 Posted: Fri Jul 25, 2008 10:12 am vary cell width |
 |

|
This is my first time using HTML. I using Survey Monkey, a web-based survey design & hosting site, and it supports some HTML within the "canned" formats.
I am trying to create an HTML table to serve as a page header.
The table consists of 1 row, with 6 cells.
The text in the cells varies in width, but I'd like the cells themselves to be uniform in size, with the text centered within.
No luck so far.
I would greatly appreciate some help!
My latest attempt at coding this is below:
<font size="3" face="Ariel">
<table frame="box">
<tr>
<td align=center>Introduction</td>
<td align=center>Law School</td>
<td align=center>Costs of Education</td>
<td align=center>Career Patterns</td>
<td align=center>Work & Family</td>
<td align=center>Demographics</td>
</tr></font>

Arial, not Ariel
Automatically, table-cells auto-resize based on which volume of the content.
Otherwise, You can assing width="" to each cell; or to one cell.
Value can be either in pixel or % percentuage; and even both, part of cells in px, other in %.
Do
| Code: |
| <td width="15%" align=center> |
15% x 6 = 90% not 100%, I know.
It works fine the same, though as what it matters is all the cell having equal width-value.
Computer understands "keep same width".
Then, You can enter width="100%" in TABLE tag, too; while border="1" helps graetly to visualize how layout sorts out (after, You will set border as zero). |

I'll give this a try.
And, so that's why my font wasn't changing! I suppose there is no "little mermaid" font, huh? |
