Just give it a try. </p> <p>Netscape has a funny way of handling table width (if anyone has any rationalization for this I'd really love to hear it!), so that's why you have to put the spacer (transparent) gif in there - otherwise netscape will sometimes shrink it smaller than 200. Similarily, your expandable cell (on the right) will have to have some content that expands dynamically with the width (like a paragraph of text for example that flows over more than one line) - otherwise netscape will sometimes expand the right column wider than 200 pixels. I hope that makes sense.</p> Wed, 03 Jan 2001 19:07:35 +0000 Megan comment 1076308 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/html-css-and-javascript/combining-fixed-and-variable-sizes-one-table#comment-1076307 <p>But will that make the second column (the "blah blah blah" column) always grow and shrink to fit the max size of the screen?</p> Wed, 03 Jan 2001 18:57:56 +0000 Jaiem comment 1076307 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/html-css-and-javascript/combining-fixed-and-variable-sizes-one-table#comment-1076305 <p>More or less like this ..</p> <p><img src="spacer.gif" width="200" height="1" /><br /> this is a fixed width column</p> <p>blah blah blah</p> <p>spacer.gif should be a transparent one pixel by one pixel image.</p> Wed, 03 Jan 2001 18:18:48 +0000 AndyB comment 1076305 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net
