Dear webbies,

I would like to know if there is a way to get a table to actually got expand to the real screen size (to the very top and very left of the screen, no white around them)

Frames do go to the real screen size, but in this instance I'm considering just using tables if I get my other issue with the links worked out (other thread/question)

Thanks,

Soulphoto

Hello soulphoto, Welcome to WebmasterWorld!

Maybe something like this...

<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
body{top:0;left:0;margin:0;padding:0;color:#000;background:#fff;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" height="100%">
<tr>
<td width="100%"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

Hi Pageoneresults,

Great, sounds like it may work, I'm gonna give it a go.

Will let you know what I get/run in to.

Thanks,

Hi Pageoneresults,

Works great for top and left, but what about bottom and right?

You see, my vision on design is that pages need to have a bottom and a right side for balance, and I want those elements to be squarely centered, but also strechted to the max of the screen.

I'm gonna fumble with the code to see if adding right had any effect... help would be appreciated...

Thanks, cause you have given me some knowledge that makes mixing frames and tables easier without the use of Web Pro. (which I understand to be fixed, and that I dont want.)

Regards

He Pageoneresults,

I got the right, there was a 98% instead of 100% width specified.

I'm still stumped on the bottom though. I think it may be because I have IE6 customized(?) with the blue bar, and 3 bars below that including the address bar. I think I may have moved one bar up to increase my window size. I believe I get 768 and still a bar of white below because of that..

Anyway, I'm almost there, and happy for the advice, except I still need to figure out how to change link color as mentioned in the same page, as mentioned my other question/post

Thanks
