Hi all,
I'm writing a personal web site and since my ISP is not offering me
the possibility to have server-side scripting (I'm using the classical
free web space available with the connection), I'm using a combination
of TABLE and OBJECT to manage the redundant parts of my pages (I don't
know it is the best practice); unfortunately I'm having some problem
and I can't find a solution.
You can see the following page as example of my problems:
http://marcodifresco.interfree.it/test/hptable.html
The problems are the following:
- the OBJECT code seems to require more space than necessary otherwise
it shows up scroll bars (for example for the 728x90 leader board I
have on top I have to set width="770" and height="130"), but in this
way I'm getting too much blank space between elements; you can see the
scroll bars (the width and height match the intended value) on the
advertisement skyscraper on the left and the excessive white space
(the width and height are higher than intended) below the leader board
on top (apply also to the search box);
- if I use OBJECT to render a web page inside a cell (as I said I'm
using a TABLE to layout my web site) and I click a link of that page,
the linked page will be rendered inside the cell instead of loading
full screen; you can see the effect either on the short menu above the
skyscraper (the one that says "Home Page - Send this page - Your
feedback about this page") or with the link on the copyright notice at
the bottom of the page;
- while in Firefox the page looks OK (except for the excessive white
space mentioned in point 1), in IE7 the sections rendered with OBJECT
show a vertical scroll bar (that is grayed out since the section is
fully rendered).
Do you have any idea how I can solve these problems?
Thank in advance.
