Template talk:Subpages6

Chris, you know this stuff way better than I, but I was wondering if a table within a table was a way to get cells to wrap. Larry mentioned wrapping them here. http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=44778 tells how to do it with CSS but it is above my head at this point. —Stephen Ewen (Talk) 03:07, 9 July 2007 (CDT)

So you want fixed size cells? Chris Day (talk) 07:17, 9 July 2007 (CDT)

Does he want a column?--Robert W King 09:54, 9 July 2007 (CDT)

Fixed size cells that will wrap to two rows if needed. —Stephen Ewen (Talk) 12:08, 9 July 2007 (CDT)

To tell you the truth I'm not entirely sure how you want this to look. At present it sounds to me as if you are thinking along the lines of tabs. The tabs will start at the left. If there are only five tabs they will be aligned to the left. As other subpages are added they will be added to the right of the header. So, if there is a maximum of 10 tabs then each tab should be 10% of the max width of the browser. Is this an accurate decription of what you envisage? Another variant would be to have fixed size tabs from the perspective of pixels. Chris Day (talk) 12:35, 9 July 2007 (CDT)

That's the same question I have, essentially, but more specifically described by Chris.--Robert W King 12:36, 9 July 2007 (CDT)

Under what conditions would they be needed? Page width? A variable? A flag?--Robert W King 12:08, 9 July 2007 (CDT)

Y'know, another possibility would be just not to use one cell per item. Just make it all one big cell for all items. Then the text within the cell can wrap. --Larry Sanger 12:13, 9 July 2007 (CDT)

That's easy enough to do.--Robert W King 12:14, 9 July 2007 (CDT)
