width="100" means only 100px of the computer screen
however width="100%" means it will cover the whole screen

RE: HTML Width Attribute

Width attribute in HTML can be expressed in pixels or percentage.The example of width expressed in pixels is :
<HR WIDTH "100">

If you are expressing the same in percentage then it would be

<HR WIDTH "100 ">

Remember to enclose the value in quotes if you use a percentage width.

I hope this will help you

RE: HTML Width Attribute

Basically it's all about layouts

Fixed and flow layout are two different types. We use Flow layout when we want our web page to fix in any resolution. In flow layout we use to match the of the screen while in fixed we use pixels

So 100px stands fixed

while 100 stands for Flow which will adjust itself
