I would like to arrange some photos in a simple grid. Each photo is either x
pixels by y pixels or y pixels by x pixels (i.e. all the same size, arranged
either in the landscape or portrait direction). I want each row to be the
same width and height, the largest dimension of x and y. I want this to be
the case even if all the photos in a given row or column are arranged in the
'other' direction, the one which leaves two strips of empty space all along
the row or column. I would like to do this without using blank graphics to
force the grid to size and want to keep it within W3C standards. Try as I
might I've never found the proper way to do this! I hope my description of
the problem makes sense!
Thanks,
Geoff

first you need a block level container in which to place your image. set
it's height to suit and float to left or right according to taste. did I
miss something?

Thanks to William for his reply.
I realise I forgot to mention it but I was initially thinking of a purely
HTML solution. How would I do it using only HTML? I'm not too experienced
with CSS, how would this solution render in older browsers, do you you know
roughly which browser versions first supported the CSS used in this example?
Would it be possible to have a little more detail of this CSS solution or a
pointer to an example?
Many thanks
Geoff

Now's the time to learn.

browsers,
depends - there are work-arounds for some issues.

supported the CSS used in this example?
Sorry - I'm not too concerned about old technology just so long as the
data/content appears and is presentable then I'm happy.

An example I did a while back (nearly two years ago): http://www.jennylind.co.uk/gallery3.asp

Something like this maybe (not grid but something):

Not too much images, try smaller/bigger window, if that is not
demonstrating.
(Ask for JAlbum skin file.)

I don't get any more information from this.

You need CSS. Or vspace/hspace attributes (deprecated IIRC).

It's a very simple one with few functions. I derived a DataGrid and
added to it a DataTable to hold the data. The object itself is

I did a lot of searches and read something about
datagrids. But I couldn't find the answer of my simple
question, how can I show only my desired columns of
a table? for example I wrote this sql query:
OleDbDataAdapter1.SelectCommand.CommandText = & _
"Select illNameE From tblIllness"
OleDbDataAdapter1.Fill(DsIllness1)
But in my datagrid, I get (null) for other ccolumns instead

I have a very simple datagrid, with an edit button that I added in
PropertyBuilder. This fires the EditCommand event just fine and I show a
panel where the user can edit certain fields. I have a button to save the
changes. Within that button, I refer to dataGrid1.EditItemIndex and it's
returning -1. Isn't this property set when I click on the edit button
within the grid?

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
