Russian term or phrase: тянущаяся таблица
This term is from a website style guide; it provides a template for a page with "тянущаяся таблица". Unfortunately, I don't have any more context than that. I'm certain it's not a drop-down menu, but I'm not sure of the proper term for this in English. Expanding table? Scrollable list?

I think this is the most appropriate, given my context (the column width is fixed, so it appears that the table expands by rows).
Thanks, Sam!

agree  Oleksandr Kupriyanchuk: Why just auto-adjustable columns (width)? There may be fluid rows, as well! Btw, a method to build such a table: "How to make XHTML table with fluid table rows", http://stackoverflow.com/questions/943480/how-to-make-xhtml-...

agree  rns: "тянущаяся таблица" is like this — http://msk-f509.host-telecom.com/details/blochnaya_fotogalle... — it withstands scaling of the view (Ctrl-+ in browser)
