The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Crating a Table with a Row that automatically expands to 100% height of the viewable area

Asked by StewartMeyers in Extensible HTML (XHTML), Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), Hypertext Markup Language (HTML)

Tags: ,

I've seen a lot of information about this, but still can't find a solution.  Consider the following code.  It contains a table with two rows where one is a fixed height.  I want the other row to expand to the remaining visible client area of the browser (browser should not scroll).  What happens with the code below, is that the 2nd row will be calculated as the full client height, not the client height minus the height of the first row.  I tried setting the height of the 2nd row to 'auto'; this does force the total height of the table to the height of the browser client, but the row heights are not correct.  By the way this does work in quirks mode (which I can't use).  Thanks much.
