My webpage currently looks like this:
<asp:Table runat="server" style="position: absolute;
left: 0%; top: 82%; right: 0%; bottom: 0%; width: 100%; height: 18%"
CellPadding="0" CellSpacing="0" GridLines="Both">
<asp:TableRow>
<asp:TableCell>
Content1
</asp:TableCell>
<asp:TableCell Width="2.5%">
</asp:TableCell>
<asp:TableCell >
Content2
</asp:TableCell>
</asp:TableRow>
</asp:Table>
But I need it to look like this:
"Content1" is of unknown size, and the table will have to adjust to fit it in, but without taking any unnecessary space away from "Content2." I can't use "display: table" because it isn't supported in IE7 and such, so I'm pretty much stuck using a regular table element unless there is something better out there that is supported in older browsers.
Does anyone know how this can be accomplished?
