Flexible Tables Question

[Ryan Sullivan]

I am developing a site utilizing flexible tables. For some reason, my
navbar and the black row below it are not even in IE6 with the rest of
the page (they won't extend all the way to the scroll bar). Everything
looks fine in Netscape / Mozilla. The site is at
http://rpatrick.homedns.org Please have a look and help a man out!

Thanks,
Ryan

Looks about the same in Opera 7.11as in MSIE 6.0 SP1. In Opera, I
don't have a scroll bar and in IE, there is a scroll bar that is
empty. You might try at least using multiple tables, and even better
use CSS. With the cellspacing, cellpadding, margins and padding all
set to off and borders set to "0" it will go to the edge of the page.
With all the JS, and Flash, I'd be more concerned about how many
viewers could actually use your site as intended.

Using IE 6 I see a black border above and below the second table. Nav bar
shows fine.
You should change the width of your nav bar drop down box though. Does not
quite contain the text.
If you want to try something a little more exotic, try out this image swap
idea:

if(document.images) {
pics = new Array();
pics[1] = new Image();
pics[1].src = "name of main image";
pics[2] = new Image();
pics[2].src = "name of first swap image";
}


function changer(from,to) {
if(document.images) {
document.images[from].src = pics[to].src;
}

You can use onmouseover if you'd like.

Ryan,

Try adding this to the body portion in your external styles.css
file:

body {margin: 0; padding: 0}
