Hey,

Is it possible to not set a table height, just let the tabel's content determine its height and then retrieve the height of the table its self? The height of table cells would work too.

Thanks

i would think you would have an easier time to do this with CSS...

What is CSS?
CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets
Styles define how to display HTML elements
Styles are normally stored in Style Sheets
Styles were added to HTML 4.0 to solve a problem
External Style Sheets can save you a lot of work
External Style Sheets are stored in CSS files
Multiple style definitions will cascade into one

You don't really have to do this. Determining the dimensions of your table is simple geometery. You match image dimensions with that specific cell's dimensions, then you create neighbor cells next to the image table to contain your text or other images. This way you can fully control your table elements. I usually do not put images and text in the same cell because different browsers calculate image and text placement different. This is the old way of doing web pages I might warn you but it is probably the easiest for beginners. If you really want control you should learn CSS like Roshi229 mentioned. Good luck.

P.S. If for some crazy reason you still want to determine the tables dimensions after automatic placement, you could view it in your web browser and press the "Print Screen" button to take a screen shot. Then you could paste it in an image browser and crop the table out of the screen shot. Depending on what program you are using you can check the dimensions of the new image. If you can't do this in your software, save the file and view it in explorer. That should tell you the dimensions.
