... maybe the original poster is referring to percentage based tables?
If you need whole columns and/or rows to disappear, JavaScript might be the
way to go. You could also experiment with CSS (consider the display: none;
property). If you merely want an "elastic" table that gets wider or
narrower with the page, try putting a percent value in the width attribute
of the table.
As far as I know, Dreamweaver does not have a built-in behavior for
collapsing columns/rows via the JavaScrip or CSS methods.

| If I understand your question correctly, I've done something similar to what
you're asking here:
http://www.midwestsites.com/stellen...mws_001180.hcsp
This is a multi-page form using CSS and Javascript to show/hide various
tables and form fields. It primarily uses the P7_swapClass() function as
noted by Al to show/hide the various DIVs that make up the form as a whole.
I didn't show/hide any specific rows of a single table, however. Each DIV
contains its own table. That may be where it differs from what you're
after.
Best regards,
Chris

| Just make sure you don't submit the form. This is a live application :-)
Feel free to download the page/source and dissect it, though.
Best regards,
Chris

| You can either have JavaScript literally write out the <td> tags you
need, or you can use JavaScript to swap out the CSS classes that would
hide/show the <td> tags you want.
There isn't really a handy-dandy answer. You have to learn CSS (start
with the display: none property) and learn JavaScript, which can provides
the style property of any node (HTML element).

| Perhaps you are not able to read the posts correctly on the web forums,
but if you ignore all but the answers from either me or Chris in
Madison, you will have a solution that is consistent with your skill
level.
