table cell problem both in ie(hegith) and mozilla(positio n)

hi there!

I'm just going crazy with this stuff I want to do I though was simple.

I just want to locate an image (which is linkeable) below the bottom of
a cell.

I mean, if the cell is at 0,0, the image should be at 0,100%. I've
tried it several ways, and I can make it work in both firefox & ie, but
not at the same time!!.

In explorer, the aproach is this:

..containercell {
position:relati ve;
}
..imagelayer{
position:absolu te;
top:100%;
left:-1px;
}

and the HTML

<table>
<tr>
<td class="containe rcell">
blah,blah,blah< div class="imagelay er"><img src="..s.s"></div>
</td>
<td class="containe rcell">
blah,blah,blah< div class="imagelay er"><img src="..s.s"></div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

this doesn't work in firefox, because of a bug in it (the position
atribute doesn't work in table cells), although this css is strictly
css2
and, in firefox, the approach is:

..containerdiv{
position:relati ve;
height:100%;
}
..bottomimg{
position:absolu te;
left:-1px;
top:100%;
}

<table>
<tr>
<td>
<div class="containe rdiv">
blah,blah,blah< img class="bottomim g" src="..s.s">
</div>
</td>
<td>
<div class="containe rdiv">
blah,blah,blah< img class="bottomim g" src="..s.s">
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

which doesn't work the way I like in ie, because the height:100%
property in the div element doesn't take the 100% of its parent element
(in this case, the table cell), (in firefox it does), so I can't
position the image where I want, just below the bottom of the cell.
Is there any workaround for this??

or, at least, Is there any simple way of choosing styelsheets depending
on the web client????
txs a lot.

Can someone please take a peek at the top header boxes in ie and mozilla, and tell me what possible fix might be out there. The text and boxes are moving around between the two browsers. I prefer zero margin between boxes, like mozilla does it. I've played around with it, adding borders helps some, but does not fix the problem. Adding a break over the header text and adjusting line-height also helps, but does not show correctly like...

Hi, I am trying to build one HTML page with a table occupying the entire page and having two rows. The upper row contains data, while the lower row contains two buttons. My problem is: I want the lower row to always stay 60 pixels height, while the upper row taking the rest of the page. And at the same time, when the upper row contains a large text, a scroll bar in the right part to show up.

Hello I'm trying to make some tooltips which are position:fixed. It works fine in Opera and Safari/Konqueror, but in Firefox and Camino (ie Mozilla), it takes a few seconds for each tooltip to display, and then to get hidden. If I use position:absolute, the problem goes away, but the tooltips move around with the containing, scrolling div. ..scroll { height: 400px; overflow: auto; }

Dear all, I have been working to implement a scrolling table into an xml / xsl interface and so far have managed to put together an acceptable version using <thead> and <tbody> syntax. Indeed for the html examples that I found out there this seems to work perfectly. On the surface it also works perfectly in my xml / xsl implementation too (also based on html underneath). Indeed, using IE6*, you can take a look at a cut-down example by...
