How to fixed <div> in the specific location in css - css

I have three tables, First Table margin-top is 50px and second table have variation rows depends on the text but the Third table I want to fix margin-top is :150px standard.
but third table not able to fix it on margin-top:150px because the second table have variation of the rows.
How to fixed the third table on margin-top:150px even-though the second table have variation rows?
for example :
Table 1
Name : Balakrishnan
Table 2 <br>
S.No particulars Amount <br>
1 Desk 200 <br>
Table 3
Total : 200
I want to fix constant position of the table 3 even though table2 rows increased
! when rows increased table 2 the third table should not move to down
I have tried the following code
.table1
{
margin-top:10px;
}
.table2
{
margin-top:15px;
}
.table3
{
margin-top:30px;
}
the above code defined in
the table class

If I understand what you are asking the best solution is the following:
Wrap all the tables in a div
Give the middle div a fixed height and overflow: auto
HTML:
<div>
<table>
<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<td>Balakrishnan</td>
<td>Age</td>
<td>25</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<div class="fixed">
<table>
<tr>
<th>S.No</th>
<th>Particulars</th>
<th>Quantity</th>
<th>Amount</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>Item1</td>
<td>1</td>
<td>50</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>2</td>
<td>Item2</td>
<td>1</td>
<td>50</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>3</td>
<td>Item3</td>
<td>1</td>
<td>50</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<div>
<table>
<tr>
<th>Total:</th>
<td>250</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
CSS:
.fixed {
height: 150px;
overflow-y:auto;
margin: 20px 0 ;
}

I'm not sure what you want to do with the box in the middle. Meaning do you want it to adjust with the page, or scroll when it gets too much information in it. What it sounds like is you want a footer style box that stays in the same position though out the page. Check out this how-to site and follow the instructions to the footer.
This should help you understand how the 3rd box will stay in a "fixed position".

nth-child td width stretching other elements?

I have a two column layout in sharepoint online and upon page inspection I can see that it has a table with two columns. I'm trying to hide one of the columns for printing, which is working just fine, but sharepoint has specified the width of the first column as 66%. It has no class or id. I cannot change this.
I am able to change the width of the column, but the problem I'm seeing is then that the % of the columns on the inside table is also changing, even when I use a specification of nth-child(1) on the id of the outer table.
I won't submit you to the mess of code that is sharepoint but the layout is like this:
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
<table width="100%>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="width: 25%>></td> <-this is getting stretched.
<td style="width: 25%>></td>
<td style="width: 25%>></td>
<td style="width: 25%>></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</td>
<td>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
#media print {
table#layoutsTable td:nth-child(1) {
width: 100% !important;
}
}

How can I fix the header of a table whose width is not fixed?

I have a table to which a user can add new columns. The width hence is not fixed. How can I fix the header for such a table?
I tried:
display:block
overflow-x:hidden
overflow-y:auto
height:70%
in table body. It worked partially.
If I understand your question correctly (posting your HTML would help) you can nest a table inside the part that can be extended. You will be able to add as many columns (<td>) without effecting the table header.
table td table td {
border: solid 1px grey;
}
<table>
<tr>
<th>Add your fixed table header</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<table>
<tr>
<td>New Columns</td>
<td>can be added</td>
<td>without effecting your header</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>

Bootstrap 3 tables column width control

I have a bootstrap table as follows:
<table class="table table-bordered">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Col1</th>
<th>Col2</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>test</td>
<td>test</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
The two column are equally spaced which is fine but if i drop an <input> element in to one of the columns this column stretches to take up about 3/4 of the overall table.

My question is why does it do this and how can I control it?
Any help much appreciated.
<table class="table table-bordered">
<thead>
<tr>
<th class="col-md-10">Col1</th>
<th class="col-md-2">Col2</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>test</td>
<td>test</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
This is down to the way HTML tables work. By default, table cells will scale according to their contents - any size you give them is used as a guide. So, for instance:
td {
width: 50%;
/*
If this cell is empty, it will take up half of
the table. But if the content needs to, it will
expand to take up more space.
*/
}
You can work around this by setting table-layout: fixed; in your CSS:, e.g.
table.fixed {
table-layout: fixed;
}
This makes tables adhere more strictly to the dimensions you set in CSS, rather than what the content dictates. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/table-layout for more information.
Once this is done, you can apply the normal Bootstrap grid classes to control the width. Apply them to the cells (td or th) in the first row and they'll repeat all the way down.
Why ? I don't know :)
How to control it ?
You can simply but a width parameter to your td, such as :
<td width=50%><input type="text"></td>
You can do it like this, or using your css file by saying all from this class should take half of the table width.
td {
width: 50%;
}

Standard fixed table width

Is there a standard method for calculating fixed width values for tables in HTML? Right now, I'm working on formatting tables on a web page to be a fixed width, I have a table that's within another table, when testing the page in IE I notice that the alignment of the colon is off as the second picture below illustrates. My intention is to make sure the colons are properly aligned as they are in Firefox and was just curious if the misalignment was due to the settings in the HTML or if it has more to do with how the browser renders the page.
Firefox:
Internet Explorer:
UPDATE:
Sorry for not providing any reference code, here's a snippet of the particular section I'm working with.
<div style="width: 1600px; text-align: center; position: absolute; top: 10%; left: 0%;">
<span id="labelInstructions" style="font-size: xx-large;">PAGE TITLE <br><br></span>
<table style="width: 1000px;" align="Center" border="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="width: 1000px;"><label for="FileUpload1" style="font-size: x-large;">ENTER: </label><input name="FileUpload1" id="FileUpload1" size="70%" type="file"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="width: 1000px;"><span id="fileUploadError" style="color: Red; font-size: medium;"><br><br></span></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="width: 1000px;">
<table style="width: 1260px;" border="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="font-size: x-large; width: 800px;" align="right" valign="top">FILE INSTRUCTIONS:</td>
<td style="font-size: x-large; width: 1800px;" align="left" valign="top">INSTRUCTION 1<br>INSTRUCTION 2<br></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="font-size: x-large; width: 800px;" align="right" valign="top">FILE EXAMPLE:</td>
<td style="font-size: x-large; width: 1800px;" align="left" valign="top">EXAMPLE 1<br>EXAMPLE 2<br><br></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
I know it's ugly, just a note, this is an ASP.Net generated webpage and I'm setting the attributes of the HTML elements pro-grammatically from the code behind. I sorta inherited this and my employer wants to keep major changes to a minimum.
UPDATE 2:
When I adjust the inner table width I can get it to align in IE when set to 1377px. For Firefox, the sweet spot for alignment is 1260px.
All you have to do is make the table columns the same width as each other.
Example of style:
table tr td:first-child { background-color:yellow; width:200px; }
HTML:
<table>
<tr><td>Row 1 Cell 1</td><td>Row 1 Cell 2</td></tr>
<tr><td>Row 2 Cell 1</td><td>Row 2 Cell 2</td></tr>
<tr><td>Row 3 Cell 1</td><td>Row 3 Cell 2</td></tr>
</table>
Sorry for not directly answering to your question, but...
Stoneage is over! You really shouldn't use Tables for layouting-purposes, as they are hardly-accessible for disabled people and make your HTML-File way too big (in relation to the content).
Seperate Content and Layout, use CSS.
Make sure to place the the parts that you want to align together in one table.
<table id="layout">
<tr><td>HEADER</td>
<tr><td>
<table id="form">
<tr><td>LABEL</td><td>INPUT FIELD</td></tr>
<tr><td>LABEL</td><td>INPUT FIELD</td></tr>
<tr><td>LABEL</td><td>INPUT FIELD</td></tr>
</table>
</tr>
<tr><td>FOOTER</td>
</table>
i would create two classes, left and right and apply the left class to the <td> on the left and the right class to the <td> on the right. the left class would be something like
.left{width:100px; text-align:right;}
heres an example

IE css - last table row to expand to fill remaining height

Given HTML like the following, how can I get the last row to take up the remaining height, and have the n-1 first rows to take up just as much height as they need?
This seems to work as is in Chrome, but not in Firefox2 or IE6/7/8.
<table>
<tr>
<td rowspan="5"><div style="border: 1px solid #cdcdcd; width: 100px; height: 300px;"/></td>
<td/>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>one</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>two</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>three</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>full</td>
</tr>
</table>
So, the idea is that the last row, with "full" in it, should be really tall, and the other rows, "one", "two" and "three" should be as small as possible.
I've tried stuff like putting exact heights on the rows, say "<tr style="height:20px;"> and I've tried 100% height on the last row, no luck so far!
Update:
This layout is going to be used for varying types of content, and the intention is for the table to size itself to the content. Sometimes the div will be tall, then its height determines the table's height, but othertimes the div is short, then the rows (one, two, three) determine the table's height.
If javascript is ok, you could use jQuery and find the top position of the last row and the position of the bottom of the window or element. The difference should be set as the height of the last row.
I didn't do any code yet, because I wasn't sure if you were looking for a table inside of an object or to have it fill to the bottom of the window. I can do that for you if you'd like with some more detail.
