If I use code like this... <table> <td background='images/Background1.jpg'> </td> </table> ....the background is tiled. I need it to be stretched to the size of my cell. How would I do this? HTML? CSS?

Has anyone else noticed a problem when printing html with fieldsets in them? Whenever I print even the simplest document with a fieldset, the amount of data sent to the printer jumps from a few K without a fieldset to almost 50 Megs. This seems to only be noticeable in IE, but I can replicate every time. Example: (70 megs sent to printer)...

I have a frameset that was working fine then suddenly a link that is suppose to load a page in an adjeacent frame opens a new window instead. What could be causing this? Problem prevalent in IE 6.0. The frameset: <html> <head>

Hello, Embarrassing as it is, I'm stumped by a (I'd imagine) fairly elementary CSS problem. Consider the code below. We have a table with three columns, two of which are set to a width of 150px. The center cell has no specific width and therefore grows/shrinks as the browser window is re-sized. In the center cell is a <div>, set to...

I have a web page with a form about halfway down the page. Instead of starting at the top of the page when it is loaded I would like it to go directly to the top of the form. Can this be done? Dave

Hi, Could you give me some suggestions or ideas for the loading speed difference between using one single frame for a web page and not using frame for this page? Thank you very much.

hi all, I am sorry for the post first for it's a very popular question here. However, I have seen thousand of post here but no one can tell me HOW TO MAKE A HOMEPAGE RESOLUTION-INDEPENDENT. I have ever visited some homepage which is resolution-independent but I don't know how the author make it.

I'm looking for some advice on this one. I'm creating a page that, as planned, consists of a static frame on the top of the window and the bottom section is a scrollable list. The top frame contains a logo and two buttons: one for print and one for closing the window. The problem I have is that the list is dynamically generated by the...

I create my website using Front Page 2000. I notice that none of my pages have a DocType statement at the top. I have read that if you want IE6 to use "Standards mode" rather than the "Quirks mode," which IE uses if there is no DocType, then you have to put the proper DocType statement at the top of every page. What is the recommended...

hi, I am trying to compare one nicely written html file against another program generated one, whose formatting isn't very appealing to human eyes. I am tuning the code so that two htmls will match but there some are always some difference. Is there any tools out there that can compare the structure, instead of content, of two htmls?

Using <A name="x_y-z"></A>, I even get nervous about the _ and -. w3-recs/RECS/html4/struct/links.html seems to say all of ascii is cool and beyond. Anyway, just what is the safe range for characters in a name="" ? I don't plan to go beyond usual Unix filename chars.

Say, how much of <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> can I trim and still be rest assured that browsing will not be affected? Perhaps the URL at the end could be stripped? Maybe the answer is mentioned in RECS/html4/intro/sgmltut.html but I can't tell.

Does anyone know how to make input fields smaller, using a smaller font? I want to know how to make my textboxes and such like the ones at http://www.gracenote.com/music/ , but reading teh code reveals they used a stylesheet to do this, and the stylesheet is not within the public_html directory tree. Does anyone know how to do that in CSS or...

Is it possible to change the colours of links in part of a document? i.e. where I could set link, alink and vlink in the body tag, it would change the links in the whole document. Can I use a style sheet or something else to change the links in just a part of a table?

I would like to change the colors on consecutive letters of a word. When adding a style associated with the span tag (see below), there is a gap after each letter. Does anyone know why the span tag does this? Is there a better way (or better tag) to accomplish what I'm trying to do? Thanks much! - Jim

Hi there, I have an HTML page with one large background image in the left corner. I've got various links positioned randomly on the image, and I use <span> tags to display text on another section of the page when hovering over the links. Here's an example of the code: <head> <title>My Title</title> <style type="text/css">
