See if this helps. Change the array size and uncomment the other elements to
see the changes in height. The ExtraPadding variable should accomodate for
padding, but you will probably want to mess with it yourself.
Private RowHeight As Integer = 20
Private ExtraPadding As Integer = 20
Private Sub Page_PreRender(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.PreRender
Dim testArray(7) As String
testArray(0) = "item 1"
testArray(1) = "item 2"
testArray(2) = "item 3"
testArray(3) = "item 4"
testArray(4) = "item 5"
testArray(5) = "item 6"
testArray(6) = "item 7"
'testArray(7) = "item 8"
'testArray(8) = "item 9"
'testArray(9) = "item 10"
For Each strItem As String In testArray
Dim Row As New TableRow
Row.Height = Unit.Pixel(RowHeight)
Dim Cell As New TableCell
Cell.Text = strItem
Row.Cells.Add(Cell)
Me.DynamicTable.Rows.Add(Row)
Next
DynamicTable.Width = Unit.Pixel(350)
Dim DivHeight As Integer = (RowHeight * Me.DynamicTable.Rows.Count) +
ExtraPadding
Dim DivTag As New HtmlGenericControl("DIV")
DivTag.Attributes.Add("STYLE", "Height:" & Unit.Pixel(DivHeight).ToString &
"; BACKGROUND-COLOR:gainsboro; WIDTH:200px;OVERFLOW:auto")
DivTag.Controls.Add(DynamicTable)
Page.FindControl("Form1").Controls.Add(DivTag)
End Sub

If you create the table dynamically, you can set the row's height when you
generate them (use the Height property of the TableRow class). Once you do
that, when youre done adding rows, multiply the number of rows times the
height. That gives you a good estimate on what the total table height is
(not counting Cellpadding or Spacing).
if you created the DIV dynamically (or specify runat server), you can set
the DIV height to the total table height (plus a little more).
I'm going ot see if I can make this work.

news:1C**********************************@microsof t.com... I am created a table dynamically and I have wrapped it in a div tag so that the user can scroll the table horizontally ie I have added an overflow
property to the div. I dont want the user to be able to scroll
vertically so I need to set the height of the div at runtime based on the number of table rows generated. Ideally I want the div scrollbars to sit just
underneath the bottom of the table.
I have looked around and haven't found anything to enable me to do this.
Has anybody got any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
