    I was wondering if anybody could help me to stretch images to fit table cells?

    To be clear, I've took a snapshoot of what I currently have below:

    http://i693.photobucket.com/albums/vv300/test_012/test.jpg

    and I want to see something like (see the middle of the page) :

    http://www.biriz.biz/

    How can I do this, I already tried a couple things
    1. by using 100% for the image size,
    2. putting the images into the cell's background.

    But it doesn't work for me,

    Any help is greatly appreciated ....

    Thanks and really sorry if this is not video-related issues but I thought I may find someone help me with this.

    Thanks again .....

    your first link has been removed or deleted so that's out
    try defining the height and width of the cell to match the photo
    <td width="200px" height="300px">[img]dog.jpg[/img]</td>
    tables are meant to hold text data
    anytime you stretch anything, it deforms the image

  4. tables are meant to hold text data
    Since when. Tables are used as place holders. Pretty much every frickin' website uses Tables to organize content. Tables are extremely useful for that.

    I don't recommend setting height and width on the table cell, set it on the the image tag instead. Regardless be very conscious of the content around the image, because if it is in the same table, particularly table row, that content will have the same dimensions as the image, which will through off your layout. Best approach is to put the image in its' own table and nest that table in another table that holds your other content.

    If you have FrontPage, create this table in there. It's easy to do table work in FrontPage's GUI, then take the HTML you need (clean it up more if required) and insert into whatever you're making.

    They're not meant for images
    The state-of-the-art site uses fluid and tableless CSS
    When you put the page within a table, the whole thing must load before anything displays making for a slow-loading site.
    Nobody in the know uses them anymore except for actual tabular data

    Front Page is responsible for more display errors than all toy editors combined
