blackcell Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 I can't get a table to valign="bottom" correctly. It ignores the tag or something. Anybody know of any tricks?

rhodesa Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 valign is only a valid attribute for td tags, not table. can you give us a sample of how you are using it just to make sure we are on the same page Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/100011-solved-having-issues-with-valign/#findComment-511439 Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcell Posted April 7, 2008 Author Share Posted April 7, 2008 //index.html <iframe src="top.php"> <---- Needs the table aligned to the bottom of the iframe or actually to the bottom of top.php (see below). //top.php <table align="left" width="100%" border="0"> <tr > <td ><div id="target"></div></td> //<--- I need this table to load at the bottom of the page. </tr> </table> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/100011-solved-having-issues-with-valign/#findComment-511450 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhodesa Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Vertical aligning something like that is kind of hacky. Is everything fixed hight? As in, can you set the height of the iframe? Because then you can set the table to have the same height, and then put a valign (or css vertical-align) on the td.

blackcell Posted April 7, 2008 Author Share Posted April 7, 2008 Well, I am using php and ajax to create a chat script. I want the send bar to be at the bottom and the display to be up top. Now, if the chatlog becomes larger than the frame (it will eventually) I want the old to go to the top.

rhodesa Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Well, you could have the send button outside the iframe, and on the actual page. Also, you can put the send in a fixed positioned DIV with: #target { position: fixed; bottom: 10px; } Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/100011-solved-having-issues-with-valign/#findComment-511469 Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcell Posted April 7, 2008 Author Share Posted April 7, 2008 The send bar is in a seperate iframe. Here is what it looks like but I want the display frame to be on the top.

atravotum Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Nothing displayed ??? However I would agree with the above mentioned. I'm not sure why you need the send button in an iframe (or why you even need one using ajax) but it would be best to keep the send button on the stationary page. This way the only thing you would need an iframe for is for the messaging window. I would suggest just using a scrolling div layer however, i have built a chat using php and found it to be easiest. Ajax can update it all the same. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/100011-solved-having-issues-with-valign/#findComment-521332 Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcell Posted April 20, 2008 Author Share Posted April 20, 2008 I don't think I know enough to do something with scrolling div layers>? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/100011-solved-having-issues-with-valign/#findComment-522195 Share on other sites More sharing options...
atravotum Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 There not to much different then tables really. <div style="overflow:scroll;">Content Here</div> That would give you a div that will scroll. Div layers are good cause you can target them with CSS easily, and create ones that scroll both directions, only 1 direction. Can position them practically anywhere. I would google it if your interested. Might make your project a bit easier.
