shrinking an img inside a td I've got this gradient bar, originally 700px wide, that should expand and contract with page width (see the div tag within the td.)  By itself outside the table, it works.  Inside the table, it does not shrink below 700px, but it will expand. In Firefox and netscape it shrinks properly, but not IE.  So what is it about the table that it behaves differently in IE?  IS there a fix for this that does not require javascript to change the img size by code? Thanks for any help!   <table width=100%>   <tr>     <td style="width:100%">       <div style="width:100%"><img src="graphics/misc/grad_bar.gif" width=100% height=10 alt=""></div>     </td>   </tr>  </table>   P.S.  I tried adding width:100% to the body and html, and every possible combination, but no luck.

wasnewski on Sep 20, 2007 at 7:41:04 AM (# 4) I appreciate you taking the time to respond, Brian, although that does not help. I guess this is not the place to get answers on HTML help, although I was mislead by the homepage information.  Silly me. Thanks anyways. brian on Sep 20, 2007 at 8:12:07 AM (# 5) ok, try this: Lose the table and put this in, in its place. <div style="width:100%;height:10px;background-image:url('graphics/misc/grad_bar.gif');"></div> This will definitely work....probably....a lot of people might argue it's the correct way to do it. I say whatever works. As for getting responses, you do generally get replies but you do have to be patient...it's mainly people volunteering their advice in their own time...if you want a quick answer, go buy some books. (DHTML - the Definitive Reference is an excellent book published by O'Reilly btw) The site has been pretty slow of late however. As for IE and Firefox, they just do things differently. You can perhaps try XHTML strict/transitional modes as well, it often helps with compatibility. wasnewski on Sep 21, 2007 at 2:22:00 PM (# 6) Thanks, I know it works without the table.  The table is required, however for another reason.

Sincerely, RobinAnn  webmaster/photoartist Huh? brian on Sep 24, 2007 at 9:28:01 AM (# 8) This message has been edited. have you tried the div inside the table cell??? OR, even, setting the background of the table cell instead...that would also work. And...tables required....that's an oxymoron if ever I heard one... Jaky123 on Sep 26, 2007 at 4:06:50 PM (# 9) Yeah,thank you. I will have a try.   iphone accessories ipod video converter  cash on Dec 1, 2007 at 11:18:55 AM (# 10) i had the same problem. thanks cash http://tech-unite.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=10
