div tag in html

Hello population,

I've a problem figuring out whether there exists an option in the
tag. I'm using a div tag and it has like 8 entries in it horizontally(i.e in a single line.) I made sure the webpage alignment works fine for all the resolution and most of the common browsers. But since i defined everything in %, the
tag doesnot work as desired?? Is there a way to increase the spacing between each entry in the
using % option so that it looks uniform on all the resolutions??

Thanks for ur reply in advance

Swaroop.

  • first of all thnx for the reply dolev. I actually got other cool options for the menu from that link, but still cant solve the problem. I'll reframe my problem,


    My div tag has 8 names(links) aligned horizontally. Now the alignment(or rather the spacing b/w the links) is perfect in 800X600 resolution. But when i change my resolution to say 1024X768 the width of the div remains same but the entries in it r aligned with same spacing, so there will b a gap on the right side. I know we've to provide the alignment in % for it to work in all resolutions, but the % option has no effect when i use it in the div option.

    I hope u got my problem. I tried some more options in the link but still cudnt get it to work. Thnx for ur reply

    There are ways to do this, I have a handfull of functions.
    Some for images that don't even belong to me.
    If you succeed in retrieving a browsers width,
    Math.floor(width/8) might work, if the browser's
    width is evenly divisible by 8, then it would be a
    simple task of srategecly placing the remaing pixels
    distributed amounst the div tags!!!
