Page Width HTML tags?
2 Answers
Does anyone know a html tag (or anything else if no html!) that specifies the width of a webpage?
I'm trying to fit one page into an inline frame on another page, without it overlapping, so I won't have to use a scrollbar - but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for. :( Can anyone out there help?
Thanks!

You may have to edit this in the 'code' rather than the 'design' view... it was a long time ago, things are a bit fuzzy.

The basic elements of a webpage work on a table structure. It is the overall table that will dictate how wide your page goes. For the HTML, you add the attribute WIDTH to the tag <TABLE>, so it looks something like this:
<TABLE WIDTH="800"> .... </TABLE>, which will make it 800 pixels wide (useful if you need to set a particular width for an image, say), or
<TABLE WIDTH="100%"> ... </TABLE>, which will make it fit any screen width automatically (this percentage can obviously be altered for partial screen width).
Don't forget that each individual cell in a table will be affected by this width setting.
