Is there any way to make the colums in the table resizable? like microsoft outlook and all.

[php1]

[alin19]

<a href="javascript:;" onClick="document.all.myTable.width+=5">zoom in</a>

<a href="javascript:;" onClick="document.all.myTable.width-=5">zoom out</a>

You can try using non fixed width.

 

For example:

 

Instead of - witdth:"250"

Use - width:"90%"

The coding given is only for when you click. I think what you're looking for is a drag/resize? That can be done, with a little bit of mathematical knowledge.

 

Just a basic way for you to get started is to look at something called Javascript Events, Event Handlers, etc...

 

Once you can figure out how to handle a click/drag event, it should be straightforward enough to determine the mouse's change in position horizontally and translate that to a change in column width.... This will take a bit of thinking (but what is convenient is that the top cell of the table is usually the cell that controls the width for that respective column, IE: using css to set a width to the top cell of a column will auto apply to other cells below it.)

 

Honestly, trying to get events to work has HUGE cross-browser issues as different browsers insist that they have the best way to handle events. In order to get a handle, try the following site (which I believe is an amazing piece of javascript).
