If your data never wraps within a cell, then the height of the row is always the same - it is determined by the CSS. (As a sidenote, you can change it in your CSS, or even apply different heights to different tables).
Else, 1. The height changes as data wraps within a cell. Thus, you can't know the actual height of the row until the table is rendered. 2. If the height changes with data (some rows have longer data and wrap, other rows don't), what's the point of changing the number of rows? Your first 10 rows may take 240 pixels, the next 10 rows can take 330 pixels, and so on. Also, remember that data can wrap more often when columns are narrower. This means that if you want to predict the height of your 10 rows, you also need to take into consideration the width of each column. 3. Users can change the size of the font in their browsers, unless you disable it, which is not a good practice. They can also resize their windows, add or hide toolbars in their browsers, etc. You just can't avoid having a scroll-bar. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
