Originally posted by Zem Board2 even does this. It works quite well. It's also not too hard to make layouts scroll horizontally (they get their own scrollbar rather than stretching the page - mine used to do this), but it has two problems: One, browsers tend to act a bit funny using it, and two, if it's a long post, you have to scroll down to reach the scrollbar, scroll the layout, then go back up and read the rest of the line, then go down and scroll back, etc. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Originally posted by Alastor the Stylish It was an example- I couldn't remember the exact numbers for the higher resolutions, but could remember 640x480 and 800x600 (not sure if many people use that either)... | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Sideways as in a thread goes left to right instead of up and down? 
I don't see where anyone has suggested that. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

I would rather the posts be stacked on each other than for them to sideways. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

There's lots of boards that look like this one, where all the posts are stacked on top of each other like a cohesive table, but they're all actually separate tables. When one stretches the others don't. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

You can remove the tables can't you or is it because I said I put it on the side? | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Uhh...why don't people just remove the table's? I put mine on the left so you could tell that my background was of Link. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Yeah, I thought about resolution problems... But there might have been workarounds, like converting 100% (table size) to a width in pixels, and making sure that px width always stays the same or something, while still being different for everyone.
And as for the < DarkSlaya |
Posts: 280/936 There's nobody using that resolution anymore.
| But it doesn't change the fact that it's relative to the resolution you're using. Alastor |

| I defy you to find five people who use 640x480. DarkSlaya |
Posts: 278/936 Originally posted by Imajin Indeed. That was my main thought when I posted. But Xk brought something else, and he's right. Imajin |
Posts: 49/273 I would say the main problem with preventing table-stretching is that it's subjective- what stretches tables on a 640x480 resolution most likely won't on, say, 800x600. | DarkSlaya |

Posts: 826/5653 yes, checking for tables would be nice, but there are many, many, many, many, many (repeat ad-nauseum) other ways to break tables.
| automatic image resizing is impossible unless you think inserting javascript into every single post that uses an image and having your computer slow to a halt while it makes sure all images are under a limit is fun. auto-breaking long words would also fuck over anyone who tries to use tables or even lists, since you can't have linebreaks in them, especially in tables. it'd result in very likely fucking up an html tag somewhere. in short: more people need to use common sense and not do anything stupid if they do, that's why we have moderators and admins who can edit posts.

Posts: 260/936 For the first suggestion, it'd just be a bitch to implant.
| The <table></table> thing would be easy as heck, and it's not a bad idea at all. Danielle |
Posts: 1223/6737 This would be nice, but I don't know how hard it is. No more layouts sucking, no more stretching because someone uses a few too many |  's... the good life.  This is a long thread. Click here to view it. | | ||||
