Angry Table Min Width!
I need a table, width 85% of the screen, but never less than 500 pixels - hence the first row (the tsp.gif is a transparent pixel). I have three columns, left and right column have a fixed width, the center column fills the rest.
Now, this code...

Code:
<table width="85%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
    <tr> 
        <td colspan="3"><img src="tsp.gif" width="500" height="1"></td>
    </tr>
    <tr> 
        <td width="0"><img src="tsp.gif" width="175" height="1"></td>
        <td width="100%">asd</td>
        <td width="0"><img src="tsp.gif" width="100" height="1"></td>
    </tr>
</table>


...produces what I want in Netscape 4.6, but when I resize the IE 5 window, the table doesn't get as small as I need it (minimum 500 pixels), the minimum width is always 500 pixels PLUS the width of the left and the right column.

Any Ideas how to get this right?! Thanks a lot!

(Of course, I could put another table that defines the min. width around the one above, but I actually have one header table and one content table, and I want them separated to have something displayed before all the content is loaded.)

In your second <tr>, don't specify width="100%" for the middle <td>, and specify the width of the images as the width for the first and third <td>.

But I need the center column to stretch all over the screen.. I think if don't set the width to a real high percentage, it won't scretch?

When I tried it with your code, if you set the first and third <td> to a fixed width, they always occupied only that width, and the center one occupied the remaining width, up to the width of the outer table.
