I requested this before, but I see the 3.2 spec on the W3 pages today still has width set to %pixels Here is an example of why I would like to see width %Length - the tables auto scale nicely for scree width AND they are ***BALANCED*** evenly. I could futz with pixel width all day to figure out the optimum size, and then next time I have to change a product listing *boom* I have to do it all over again. This looks good, and is simple, and it works in NS and MSIE. (In Mosaic 2.7b2 SGI (the latest I've grabbed) it degrades nicely to a bulletted list of headers and product pages.) Note I use a couple of SSI's. Since 3.2 supposedly documents current practice, and they added width and height at the last minute, I can't see why this working, useful feature was left out. If a browser supports tables but not width, it works fine, content is maintained, appearance is just not as good. *PLEASE* add this to 3.2. Thank you. <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE> Livingston Enterprises Product Information</TITLE> <LINK REV=MADE HREF="mailto:spider@livingston.com"> </HEAD> <!--#include file="body" --> <DIV align=CENTER> <IMG ALIGN=top SRC="../../Images/banner.prodinfo.gif" ALT="Livingston Registration Banner" WIDTH=449 HEIGHT=156><BR> </DIV> <HR> <DIV align=center> <TABLE BORDER=0 ALIGN=CENTER> <TR><TD align=right valign=top> <A HREF="prices.shtml"><IMG SRC="../../Images/button.l.gif" BORDER=0 ALT="" WIDTH=64 HEIGHT=35></A></TD> <TD align=left valign=middle><A HREF="prices.shtml"><BIG><STRONG>Complete Price List</STRONG></BIG></A><BR></TD></TR> </TABLE> </DIV> <HR> <DIV align=center> <TABLE BORDER=1 ALIGN=CENTER> <TR align=center valign=middle> <TH colspan=2><BIG><STRONG>PortMaster Access Servers</STRONG></BIG><BR></TH></TR> <TR align=center valign=middle> <TD width="50%"><IMG SRC="../../Images/button.ball.red.gif" BORDER=0 ALT="" WIDTH=14 HEIGHT=14><A HREF="pm3.shtml">PM-3 Family</A><BR></TD> <TD width="50%"><IMG SRC="../../Images/button.ball.red.gif" BORDER=0 ALT="" WIDTH=14 HEIGHT=14><A HREF="pm2.shtml">PM-2 Family</A><BR></TD></TR> <TR align=center valign=middle> <TD colspan=2><IMG SRC="../../Images/button.ball.red.gif" BORDER=0 ALT="" WIDTH=14 HEIGHT=14><A HREF="pm25.shtml">PM-25</A><BR></TD></TR> <TR align=center valign=middle> <TH colspan=2><BIG><STRONG>PortMaster Access Routers</STRONG></BIG><BR></TH></TR> <TR align=center valign=middle> <TD width="50%"><IMG SRC="../../Images/button.ball.blue.gif" BORDER=0 ALT="" WIDTH=14 HEIGHT=14><A HREF="irx.shtml">IRX Family</A><BR></TD> <TD width="50%"><IMG SRC="../../Images/button.ball.blue.gif" BORDER=0 ALT="" WIDTH=14 HEIGHT=14><A HREF="or.shtml">Office Router Family</A><BR></TD></TR> <TR align=center valign=middle> <TH colspan=2><BIG><STRONG>PortMaster ISDN Products</STRONG></BIG><BR></TH></TR> <TR align=center valign=middle> <TD width="50%"><IMG SRC="../../Images/button.ball.green.gif" BORDER=0 ALT="" WIDTH=14 HEIGHT=14><A HREF="pm3.shtml">PM-3 Family</A><BR></TD> <TD width="50%"><IMG SRC="../../Images/button.ball.green.gif" BORDER=0 ALT="" WIDTH=14 HEIGHT=14><A HREF="pm2i5bri.shtml">PM-2i Family and 5 BRI Module</A><BR></TD></TR> <TR align=center valign=middle> <TD width="50%"><IMG SRC="../../Images/button.ball.green.gif" BORDER=0 ALT="" WIDTH=14 HEIGHT=14><A HREF="or.shtml">Office Router Family</A><BR></TD> <TD width="50%"><IMG SRC="../../Images/button.ball.green.gif" BORDER=0 ALT="" WIDTH=14 HEIGHT=14><A HREF="pl128.shtml">PowerLink128 Family</A><BR></TD></TR> <TR align=center valign=middle> <TH colspan=2><BIG><STRONG>Security</STRONG></BIG><BR></TH></TR> <TR align=center valign=middle> <TD width="50%"><IMG SRC="../../Images/button.ball.yellow.gif" BORDER=0 ALT="" WIDTH=14 HEIGHT=14><A HREF="radius.shtml">RADIUS Security Server</A><BR></TD> <TD width="50%"><IMG SRC="../../Images/button.ball.yellow.gif" BORDER=0 ALT="" WIDTH=14 HEIGHT=14><A HREF="choicenet.shtml">Choicenet Filter Server</A><BR></TD></TR> <TR align=center valign=middle> <TD colspan=2><IMG SRC="../../Images/button.ball.yellow.gif" BORDER=0 ALT="" WIDTH=14 HEIGHT=14><A HREF="filtering.shtml">Filtering Technology</A><BR></TD></TR> <TR align=center valign=middle> <TH colspan=2><BIG><STRONG>Managment Utilities</STRONG></BIG><BR></TH></TR> <TR align=center valign=middle> <TD colspan=2><IMG SRC="../../Images/button.ball.green.gif" BORDER=0 ALT="" WIDTH=14 HEIGHT=14><A HREF="pmconsole.shtml">PMconsole</A><BR></TD></TR> </TABLE> </DIV> <P align=center><STRONG><A HREF="../Misc/info_req_frm.shtml">Request Additional Product Info</A></STRONG></P> <!--#include file="footer" --> <!--#config timefmt="%A %B %d, %Y %H:%M %Z" --> <CENTER><div align=center><small>© Copyright 1996, Livingston Enterprises, Inc.
