abazoskib Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I have a problem with my main div and the fieldset I have encompassing a table. Here's a screenshot: hxxp://all-inbox.com/images/screenie.png When the table gets too wide, I want the div to stay with it, however it does not. Here's the CSS: #statTable { margin-left: 0px; padding: 3px; margin-top: 0px; border: 0px solid #000; min-width: 750px; /*height: 250px;*/ font-family: Arial; } #dashedDiv { text-align: left; vertical-align: middle; margin: 0px auto; padding: 10px; /*min-width: 1000px;*/ min-height: 500px; width: 100%; background-color: #ffffff; border: 1px dashed #564b47; } fieldset { width: 800px; margin-left: 10px; margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 0px; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px; border-color: #659539; background-color: #ffffff; min-height: 250px; } legend { padding: 10px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; color: #000; background: #fff; font-weight: bold; } Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/175153-fieldset-overlapping-div/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

haku Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Explicitly set the width of the table to 100% and see if that helps. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/175153-fieldset-overlapping-div/#findComment-923274 Share on other sites More sharing options...

haku Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 To be honest, I'm not exactly sure of the full reasoning behind it - it's just something I've found to work in the past. But what I think that happens is that the natural width of the table takes precedence over the width of the containing element. So you need to explicitly set the width of the table at 100% so that it doesn't overlap.
