Hi Joshua,<br />
Thanks a lot for replying to my query. When I tried setting width to auto, the width of div increased to encompass with of table, but , the width of the table inside div tag has also increased considerably. I do not want the width of the table to be increased further. Is there any round about to fix it..

Hi Joshua,<br />
<br />
Thanks again for your suggestions. I have tried adding margins as you mentioned, I have not got results any different. But I think I will go ahead with making width - auto instead of using javascript to get width changed dynamically.

no problem,<br />

the margin left and right auto should be added to the table class not the div. That will make a difference. It would be easier if you could post the page somewhere so we can see it.

How can I dynamically change the width of a div tag based on its content

Web development software is used to create websites for both the Internet and intranets. Software can be either locally installed or operated through a cloud interface, and ranges in complexity from simple text editors to full-fledged integrated development environments (IDEs) that include graphics, video, audio, scripting and database support.

Web Development Software

Web applications are systems that run in browsers that perform functions normally associated with other client-based programs. One of the most commonly used web applications is email; instead of downloading individual emails to a local machine, the data is shown through a website. Other examples of web applications are collaborative systems like a wiki or an online game.

Web Applications

Web development includes all aspects of presenting content on intranets and the Internet, including delivery development, protocols, languages and standards, server software, browser clients, databases and multimedia generation.
