Left menu and space underneath it

Post by gerben »

Hi,
I want to place a table under the left menu. But what happenend is that the content to the right moves down with - in this case - '200' (height). What to do in the code to resolve this problem? This is my code from the template:
{* Start Navigation *}
     
        Navigation
        {menu template='cssmenu.tpl'}
     

 
      tekst
       
 
 
       
      tekst
 

     
      {* End Navigation *}


Thanks if someone can help in this!

Hi Ronny,

I couldn't make it. I tried this code underneath the left menu:



teksten
teksten
teksten
teksten



My right column moves downwards. Does someone have another trick??

Adding a % in the inline width/height calls is actually incorrect.  within a tag, you had it right the first time.  You only need to add %, em, px or whatever if you're using style="height:99%;", which you are not.

From the code you posted, I don't see why it would be doing what you say.  What are your stylesheet calls for "#table1"?  Alternatively, if you have a link to the site, it would be far easier to see what's actually going on that just by guessing at a snippet of code.

Hi Doodlebee,

thanks for your reaction. My address is http://www.nederlandsezwembaden.nl/start.php. I placed just some text. What I also want, is that my text in the left menu doesn't appear directly underneath the menu, but with little space between it.
I want to place a tabel with content, table format is 60 (width) by 600 (height).

Hope you will help!

This woulkd so much easier if you just used DIVs instead of td, unless you are trying to display tabular data...
