Trying to make a table width %100

[Anon]

Okay I am trying to make a table with a width of %100 and whenever I do I get an error that print() has too few arguments. I tried escaping it but it doesn't work.

Is there any possible way to make it not think its not representing a variable or whatever it is when you use the % sign??

Thanks,
Andrew

i haven't had any problems with what you're saying, if i comprehend your question properly...

print (as far as i know) doesn't use %d and the like, that's used in printf. to use it in printf, use %%

so to make a table of width 100 just use...
print "<table width=100% border=0>";
or... printf("<table width=100%% border=0>";

if you post your actual code, then it'll shed more light on your problem

Actually, I think the argument to width must be in quotes in order to express a percentage. Most HTML rendering engines interpret non-quoted number to be pixels, at least in my experience.

No your printf statement is trying to add another argument based on the % in 100%, I have run into this lots of times and the easiest way around is to just do like this:
printf('<table width="%s" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">', "100%");

I used the %% and it worked great!

Thanks for all the help!!
