Yep- it works now. I figured out that netscape doesn't support the % sign, but you can specify a height in pixels. I would give a URL but the page isn't done yet and I don't feel like uploading it

Justin,

With NS, just put a ' ' in the cell and it works with out the graphic.
That's supposed to be & n b s p ; without any spaces. After thinking though, think that will give you a cell at least the size of your default font (either width or height). Gif is probably the best way to do what you are doing.

hmmm- my conclusion: netscape sucks! yep...

UPDATE: i took JP's advice and tried that. i made the bg of the cell #000000 and put an image 1x1 in size (since netscape won't show empty cells) and it works! thanks JP.

Because they are on the right and left sides of the page to show a border sorf of. To outline the page.

Use a dark coloured cell at 100% to achieve the desired effect.

If you look into the w3 documentation for HTML 4.0, you'll find that height=100% is not part of the standard. Thus it would be luck if both browsers would be able to do it.

Same with the never used option of NS to have text run in more than one collumn.

Just curious - why do you want to have the image set to the height of the page?

I'll bet NS doesn't support the % for height values on images... I didn't know it worked at all, but IE does some new things NS won't do yet.

If I find any solutions I'll post them for you.

Justin S — Sun, 21 Nov 1999 20:53:00 +0000

no- i just have a image that is 1x1 and i want it to stretch the height of the page:

It works fine in IE, but it doesn't work in NS.
