| Sorry for the silly question I haven't written web pages for a while.
Am I right that when you enter the "td width="50"" it Constrains the table
cell to 50 units?
I find that the size of the table and cells are data dependent which is
causing a major problem. When I use a repeat region, the fields are
appearing un-uniform and dis-jointed.
<table width="178" border="1">
<tr>
<td width="50"><span
class="style1"><%=(PropertyDatabase.Fields.Item("Road").Value)%></span></td>
<td
width="50"><%=(PropertyDatabase.Fields.Item("County").Value)%></td>
<td width="50"><span
class="style1"><%=(PropertyDatabase.Fields.Item("City").Value)%></span></td>
<td width="4"><span
class="style1"><%=(PropertyDatabase.Fields.Item("Bedrooms").Value)%></span><
/td>
<td width="8"><%=(PropertyDatabase.Fields.Item("Post
Code").Value)%></td>
<td width="6"><%=(PropertyDatabase.Fields.Item("Post
Code").Value)%></td>
<td width="5"><span
class="style1"><%=(PropertyDatabase.Fields.Item("Ref
No:").Value)%></span></td>
</tr>
</table>
Thanks in advance for you help
Paul

| A TD width setting is designed to create the minumum width of the column,
however it is not consistent across browsers. If the content of the column
is wider and there is room to adjust the render will.

| Thanks Paul.
I'm viewing the table in "IE 6" and the table cell doesn't meet the required
minimum if the data is smaller than the specified td width="50". And in most
cases the table doesn't meet the minimum width either.
How do I constrain a table to a minimum width, and if possible a maximum in
IE.
Thanks again
Paul

| You can't, really. That's why you will most often see "don't even bother
with cell dimensions" here.
Try running through the table tutorials at the DW FAQ link in my sig to get
a handle on tables.

| You can't really contrain to a maximum or a minimum using the td tags. The
most common way of doing it is to have a 1pixel high row and into each place
a transparent spacer images with the size set to the minimum you want.

| Thanks Both for your help. I have taken up suggestions and used spacer,
which work fine.
Thanks again
