Following is CSS:
-----------------
div#MyRptContainer
{
    left:30px;
    width:1100px;
    height:284px;
    overflow:auto;
}
-----------------
now whenever i apply this div class to any div tag, everyting works fine except that div's left property is not working, as i want some space from left side of screen to div tag's content.

We CAN'T avoid problems, but can solve it.

You may only specify the four offset properties (top, right, bottom, and left) if the value of the position property is relative or absolute, the default value of the position property is static, so you need to add either position: relative; or position: absolute; to the div.

BTW, margin is probably what you're going for here, which does not rely on a specific value for the position property.

margin: 0 0 0 30px;

i tried & its working good.

Further what is the differe between div#classname and div.classname?

Another problem....

I have a common file in which i have written div#CSS.
in that div tag i m displaying table, since i want to fix header and first column i have define class for table also.
the problem comes when table is too short in terms of length or height.
Say height is very short so rows will be say 2 or 1, since div class has a height attribute it will display horizontal scroll bar at the end of screnn which lools very strange, can we somehow show horizontal scroll bar at the end of table irresspective of it's # of rows?
Same happes with vertical scroll bar it appears at the very right side of screen & if table is of 2 column it is again becomes very strange.

One solution is to createa separate css class for each table, but i m not satisfy with this.

I hope it is clear...if not pls reply.

> Further what is the differe between div#classname and div.classname?

The former is an id name, not a class name.

<div id='idname'> is selected by the CSS selector div#idname
<div class='classname'> is selected by the CSS selector div.classname

ID names can only occur once in a page, they are meant to be unique. Class names can occur as many times as necessary in a page.

As to your other question it's difficult to gauge what you are saying. A link to the document would help.

as i m in web application development, i cant send u link.

But 4 an idea refert this site:
http://web.tampabay.rr.com/bmerkey/e...olumn-csv.html

As you can see we r showing a table in <div> tag.
(Que) What if we reduce the no of rows or column?
(Ans) The scroll bar will remain at the position they are.
Since this is using very small area or screen my <div> tag is using large area of screen say from middle to bottom of screen, so if rows reduces to 1 or 2 the scroll bar at the end of screen will look owkward.

Hope this give idea.
Psl reply.
