Alignment for 2nd row data - css

<table>
<tr><td>test</td></tr>
<tr>
<td>
<div style= height:200px;">
<div style="border:1px solid yellow; display: inline-block; width:100px">
<img src="orderedList4.png">
</div>
<div align="center" style="border:1px solid green; display: inline-block; width:650px;height:100px;">
<div>center Test Header1</div>
<div>center Test Header2</div>
</div>
<div align="right" style="border:1px solid red;display: inline-block; width:100px">REL 1.0</div>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
In the above code, the image size is 75*75 pixels.
I want to have all the three cells to have a height of 100 pixels.
I want the image to be centered and left aligned.
The middle text to centered.
Third text to centered and right aligned.
I could not make it working.

Inline styles are a nightmare to maintain, and you should generally be trying to keep presentation separate from the content. I've moved all the styles out of the actual tags, and since you're using a table and refer to each div as a cell, I'm guessing you meant to have each one an actual cell.
<style>
.product_table {
width: 850px;
}
.product_table td {
height: 100px;
border: solid 1px #000;
vertical-align: middle;
}
.product_table .image {
width: 100px;
border-color: yellow;
text-align: left;
}
.product_table .title {
/* Automatically sizes its width */
border-color: green;
text-align: center;
}
.product_table .release {
width: 100px;
border-color: red;
text-align: right;
}
</style>
<table class="product_table">
<tr>
<th colspan="3">test</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="image">
<img src="orderedList4.png" />
</td>
<td class="title">
<div>center Test Header1</div>
<div>center Test Header2</div>
</td>
<td class="release">
REL 1.0
</td>
</tr>
</table>
The top row is probably a table heading though, so you should consider moving that out of the table as a h2 or whatever level it'll be used in. And make sure a table is the most appropriate element here – unless you're going to have multiple rows of whatever this item is, you might be better off just using divs without tables.

Chrome CSS border issue

I've found some very strange behaviour with Chrome with respect to the following CSS...
CSS:
table.addressBody {
width: 100%;
min-width: 100%;
}
table.addressBody tr td {
padding: 4px;
width: 40%;
min-width: 40%;
max-width: 40%;
border: none;
vertical-align: middle;
}
table.addressBody tr td.left, table.addressBody tr td.right {
background-color: White;
border: 2px solid #aaa;
}
table.addressBody tr td.centre {
width: 20%;
min-width: 20%;
max-width: 20%;
text-align: center;
}
HTML:
<div class="fitWidth centre">
<strong>Mr Smith</strong><br />
29/05/2014 11:17:00 - Department, Site
</div>
<table class="addressBody">
<tr>
<td class="left">
<select name="ctl00$phBody$repPatients$ctl01$ddlPickup" id="ctl00_phBody_repPatients_ctl01_ddlPickup"></select>
</td>
<td class="centre" style="border: none;"> </td>
<td class="right">
<select name="ctl00$phBody$repPatients$ctl01$ddlDest" id="ctl00_phBody_repPatients_ctl01_ddlDest"></select>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="leftShadow" colspan="2">
<img src="../img/other/bottomShadowLt.png" alt="Shadow" />
</td>
<td class="rightShadow">
<img src="../img/other/bottomShadowRt.png" alt="Shadow" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
(Fiddle)
The problem is the centre cell of the table which has a bottom border, despite the fact that I haven't actually specified that there should be one. I've tried the same code in both IE and FF and both produce the desired result (two outer cells with borders and the inner without).
I have also tried coding the CSS in turn for each border on all of the cells, but as soon as I code the #left cell bottom-border the centre cell is also bordered on the bottom. Also, notice in relation to this question there is no border collapse in the code (unless it's part of Fiddle itself).
Can anyone spot anything obvious that I've missed or know of any bug with Chrome that has a workaround?
-- EDIT --
But you did specify that it have a bottom border:
table.addressBody tr td.centre {
width: 20%;
min-width: 20%;
max-width: 20%;
border-bottom: 2px solid #aaa; <---
text-align: center;
}
As it turns out, my post is, in fact, a duplicate of this question, and so, if you wish to close it, please feel free.

Table expand row with just CSS

I have some markup like so:
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Col1</th>
<th>Col2</th>
<tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr class="main">
<td>some content</td>
<td>some content2</td>
<tr>
<tr class="more">
<td colspan="2">
<div class="more-link"><a tabindex="0" href="#">Show more info</a></div>
<div class="more-info">
more info goes here
</div>
</td>
<tr>
</tbody>
</table>
And some CSS:
td, th{
border: 1px solid red;
}
.main td{
height: 50px;
width: 300px;
vertical-align: top;
}
.main td{
border-bottom: 0;
}
.more td{
border-top: 0;
height: 0;
}
.more-link{
position: relative;
top: -30px;
}
.more-link:focus + div, .more-link:active + div{
height: auto;
}
What I want to do is that when the "show more info" link is clicked, the table row called "more" expands.
The problems:
There is no effect if I set the td inside more to have a height of 0;
If I set height of the more-info div to 0, or display:none, the table row still takes up space.
I would like to do this with just CSS, javascript can be used to make it better, but the basics should just work without javascript.
How can I get my more row to expand when the show more info link is clicked?
And a fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/QJr2e/
Got it!
Instead of using position:relative to move the "show more info" link, I gave it a float:left. This allowed me to move it anywhere I want using margin, while reorganizing the flow.
Instead of using height, I just set more-info to display:none, and then when the "show more info" link is clicked:
.more-link:active + div, .more-link:focus + div{
display: block;
}

CSS Two Column layout and tables issue in IE7

Hi I have the following HTML:
<div id="CONTENT">
<div id="SIDEBAR"></div>
<div id="MAIN">
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<div><label><span><a><span>My Label</span></a></span></label><span class="colon">:</span></div></td>
<td>hsadnsdjfjkasdfhkjadshfjkahsdkfjhasdjkfhjkasdhfjkaf</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<div><label><span><a><span>My Label with a really long title</span></a></span><span class="colon">:</span></div></label>
</td>
<td>hsadnsdjfjkasdfhkjadshfjkahsdkfjhasdjkfhjkasdhfjkaf</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<div><label><span><a><span>My Label</span></a></span><span class="colon">:</span></div></label>
</td>
<td><input value="hsadnsdjfjkasdfhkjadshfjkahsdkfjhasdjkfhjkasdhfjkaf" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</div>
and my CSS:
#CONTENT{
font-size: 87%;
padding: 5px;
}
#SIDEBAR{
width: 24em; float: left; margin-right: 0.5%;height: 200px;
border: 1px solid green;
}
#MAIN {
/*margin-left: 25em;*/
border: 1px solid purple;float:right;
}
table div{
position:relative;
}
.colon {
position: absolute;
right:0;
}
label {
margin-right: .4em;
}
In IE7 if you resize the window and make it thinner the table seems to move down the page. I would like to simply show a scrollbar like IE9 and FF.
Live Example : http://jsfiddle.net/aJsg2/19/
You'll need to set a min-width on the CONTENT in the stylesheet to be whatever the minimum width of the sidebar + main content is.

CSS three column layout, liquid center, no left-margin!

I am all in favor of CSS based layouts, but this one I just can't figure out. With a table it is oh-so-easy:
<html>
<head><title>Three Column</title></head>
<body>
<p>Test</p>
<table style="width: 100%; border: 1px solid black; min-height: 300px;">
<tr>
<td style="border: 1px solid green;" colspan="3">Header</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="border: 1px solid green; width: 150px;" rowspan="2">Left</td>
<td style="border: 1px solid yellow;">Content</td>
<td style="border: 1px solid blue; width: 200px;" rowspan="2">Right</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="border: 1px solid fuchsia;">Additional stuff</td>
</tr>
<tr><td style="border: 1px solid green;" colspan="3">Footer</td></tr>
</body>
<html>
Left is fixed width
Right is fixed width
Content is liquid
Additional stuff sits beneath content
Now here is the important part: "Left" may not exist. Again this is easy with the table. Delete the column and "Content" expands. Beautiful.
I have looked through many examples (and "holy grails") of liquid and table less three-column CSS based layouts, but I have not found one which is not using some kind of margin-left for the middle column ("Content"). Any margin-left will suck once "Left" is gone as "Content" will just stay at it's place.
I'm just about to switch to old school table based layout for this problem, so I'm hoping someone has some idea - I don't care about excess markup, wrappers and the like, I would just like to know how to solve this with plain CSS. Btw: look at how easy equal height columns are...
Cheers
PS: No CSS3 please
body {
width: 600px;
}
.left {
float: left;
width: 200px;
}
.center {
float: right;
width: 100%;
}
.right {
float: right;
width: 200px;
}
this should let the .center expand to the full width when left is removed

Two HTML tables side by side, centered on the page

I have two tables on a page that I want to display side by side, and then center them within the page (actually within another div, but this is the simplest I could come up with):
<style>
#outer { text-align: center; }
#inner { text-align: left; margin: 0 auto; }
.t { float: left; }
table { border: 1px solid black; }
#clearit { clear: left; }
</style>
<div id="outer">
<p>Two tables, side by side, centered together within the page.</p>
<div id="inner">
<div class="t">
<table>
<tr><th>a</th><th>b</th></tr>
<tr><td>1</td><td>2</td></tr>
<tr><td>4</td><td>9</td></tr>
<tr><td>16</td><td>25</td></tr>
</table>
</div>
<div class="t">
<table>
<tr><th>a</th><th>b</th><th>c</th></tr>
<tr><td>1</td><td>2</td><td>2</td></tr>
<tr><td>3</td><td>5</td><td>15</td></tr>
<tr><td>8</td><td>13</td><td>104</td></tr>
</table>
</div>
</div>
<div id="clearit">all done.</div>
</div>
I understand that it's something to do with the fact that the tables are floated, but I'm at a loss as to understand what I'm missing. There are many web pages that describe something like the technique I show here, but in any event it doesn't work; the tables cling stubbornly to the left hand margin.
Unfortunately, all of these solutions rely on specifying a fixed width. Since the tables are generated dynamically (statistical results pulled from a database), the width can not be known in advance.
The desired result can be achieved by wrapping the two tables within another table:
<table align="center"><tr><td>
//code for table on the left
</td><td>
//code for table on the right
</td></tr></table>
and the result is a perfectly centered pair of tables that responds fluidly to arbitrary widths and page (re)sizes (and the align="center" table attribute could be hoisted out into an outer div with margin autos).
I conclude that there are some layouts that can only be achieved with tables.
If it was me - I would do with the table something like this:
<style type="text/css" media="screen">
table {
border: 1px solid black;
float: left;
width: 148px;
}
#table_container {
width: 300px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
</style>
<div id="table_container">
<table>
<tr>
<th>a</th>
<th>b</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>4</td>
<td>9</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>16</td>
<td>25</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table>
<tr>
<th>a</th>
<th>b</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>4</td>
<td>9</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>16</td>
<td>25</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
I realize this is an ancient question, but here goes anyway.
The following will work in compliant browsers and IE8 in standards mode (i.e. with a doctype set).
#inner {text-align:center;}
.t {display:inline-block;}
Unfortunately, there's really no way to tweak it to work in IE6. For IE7, adding a zoom:1 to the .t divs (via a conditional comment) might help, but I don't have IE7 available for testing at the moment.
The problem is that you need to give #inner a set width (anything but auto or inherit). The margin: 0 auto; trick only works if the inner element is narrower than its container element. Without being given a width, #inner is automatically expanding to the full width of #outer, which causes its contents to be flush left.
Give your inner div a width.
EXAMPLE
Change your CSS:
<style>
#outer { text-align: center; }
#inner { text-align: left; margin: 0 auto; }
.t { float: left; }
table { border: 1px solid black; }
#clearit { clear: left; }
</style>
To this:
<style>
#outer { text-align: center; }
#inner { text-align: left; margin: 0 auto; width:500px }
.t { float: left; }
table { border: 1px solid black; }
#clearit { clear: left; }
</style>
Off the top of my head, you might try using the "margin: 0 auto" for #outer rather than #inner.
I often add background-color to my DIVs to see how they're laying out on the view. That might be a good way to diagnose what's going onn here.
The problem is that the DIV that should center your tables has no width defined. By default, DIVs are block elements and take up the entire width of their parent - in this case the entire document (propagating through the #outer DIV), so the automatic margin style has no effect.
For this technique to work, you simply have to set the width of the div that has margin:auto to anything but "auto" or "inherit" (either a fixed pixel value or a percentage).
<style>
#outer { text-align: center; }
#inner { width:500px; text-align: left; margin: 0 auto; }
.t { float: left; width:240px; border: 1px solid black;}
#clearit { clear: both; }
</style>
I found I could solve this by simply putting the two side by side tables inside of a third table that was centered. Here is the code
I added two lines of code at the top and bottom of the two existing tables
<style>
#outer {
text-align: center;
}
#inner {
text-align: left;
margin: 0 auto;
}
.t {
float: left;
}
table {
border: 1px solid black;
}
#clearit {
clear: left;
}
</style>
<div id="outer">
<p>Two tables, side by side, centered together within the page.</p>
<div id="inner">
<table style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;">
<td>
<div class="t">
<table>
<tr>
<th>a</th>
<th>b</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>2</td>
</tr>
