CSS - Bg Color Not Displaying Properly In Ie
I've searched around the web for a solution to this problem and have found other with BG display problems, but none that were exactly the same. Others seems to have a persistant problem, while mine only occurs about 20% of the time a page is loaded. Basically I have a div within a div. The inner div has variable content ranging from images, text, and tables, some of which are floated. The outer div has a superfish style menu in it. The height of the inner div is set to 100% to expand with the content within, and the outer div height is set to 100% to expand along with the inner div. Basically, two kinds of errors appear at random with IE. 1) a thin line of the outer div background color is missing at the bottom of the div just about corners rounded with RUZEE.ShadedBorder, or 2) a larger block of the background is missing just above the rounded corners. It only happens sporatically in IE, and usually pressing Reload fixes the problem. These divs are also enclosed within another container div, but its the smaller inner container div that is having the problem. It happens on all of the pages in my site about 20% of the time they are loaded up.
Does anyone know why I'm having this problem? Any help is greatly appreciated! Here are two images of what I'm talking about followed by my CSS for those two divs. http:// i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i428/kan3xiao/Clipboard01.jpg http:// i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i428/kan3xiao/Clipboard02.jpg (remove the extra spaces after http://) #outerDiv { background-color: #BBDB56; height: 100%; padding: 1px 20px 23px 5px; width: 860px; margin: 15px auto 0px auto; } #outerDiv, #outerDiv .sb-inner { background: #bbdb56; } #innerDiv { margin: 15px 0px 0px 160px; padding-bottom: 0px; background-color: #fff; height: 100%; } Similar TutorialsI've got a mostly-css layout he http://highballsociety.com/~lwco/test.php Using the following CSS page he http://highballsociety.com/~lwco/lwc.css For some reason, the div on the right will not display the off-white background color in IE 6. It looks fine in Firebird and even on IE 5 for Mac. I have a feeling that this has something to do with the fact that I've not done very precise sizing of various divs and haven't really implremented the IE box-model hack for much of the site. Let me know if you can help. Also, when I force IE to redraw, by moving the page off the screen and back on, or if I hover over the text in the div, it seems to try redrawing the off-white background, but never actually completes. Thanks, m__ I'm fairly new at CSS, but I am stumped with an issue I am having getting my H1 and H2 tags to show a color. Now the problem. I have styled the Header tags in my CSS for a <div> tag that will contain the text on my page. They are to have the color of my navigation bar on the left of the page (value #cc0000). The nav bar is styled with a CSS created by a spry in Dreamweaver CS3. My text is styled by a separate CSS document (con-ed.css) which is found in a different directory. I created all of the style elements for my <h1> and <h2> tags and they look fine in Dreamweaver. But when I open the page in a Web browser such as Firefox, Safari, or Internet Explorer, all of the formatting of the tags displays EXCEPT the color value I mentioned above. I am guessing that I have a cascading issue going on, but I haven't been able to figure out where it would be. I am loading the con-ed.css stylesheet first, so its values should override any other sheets, plus there is no mention of <h1> or <h2> in the stylesheet for my navigation bar. Any help or suggestions you could give will be greatly appreciated! wncmacs Here's the code:
Code: <html> <head> <title>Sample Font Shorthand</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <style type="text/css"> body { margin: 0; behavior: url("../htcmime.php?file=csshover2.htc") } div { } table { width: 100% } .sttable { background-color: #000080 } tr { } td { vertical-align: top } .sttd { font: bold 12px Arial #FFFFFF } </style> </head> <body> <table class="sttable"> <tr> <td class="sttd">Catalog > Categories</td> <td class="sttd">Cart Total: $ 0.00</td> <td class="sttd">Date</td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> Would someone please tell me why the color of the text isn't rendering white? I'm confused as to what's causing this... http://www.houndsandme.com/ It looks great in FireFox of course... but in IE6 the #column div is longer than it's supposed to be so that the background of the inner elements doesn't cover it all the way. It's almost like either the padding of the #column div, or the margin of the inner div (but only the last one) is incorrect... Also, have a look at IE7 for some really strange happenings... Make sure you scroll over the nav links Surprise, surprise... [edit]link removed...[/edit] In FF the list of links that represent the toon archive are dispayed as two columns just like I want, but IE isn't performing properly, showing it as one list right under the other... [note] The CSS is in the head, I haven't exported to a seperate file sheet yet since it's still in development. [/note] Thanks for taking the time to read my question. I have 2 types of pages. One with 2 colums and one with 3. If I have only one row, it all works out fine. When I add subsequent rows, the page gets all messed up. Why? How do I make "contentleft" always be on the lefthand side?

But I have come accross something that I just can't pinpoint the solution for. I was hoping someone here could look at it with a fresh [and more knowledgeable] perspective. I have been googling, reading, researching, experimenting and generally pulling my hair out for about 12 hours now and am still no closer. The problem is that I have a div (with the id of "left bar") which I would like to sit on the left hand side of my page. It displays perfectly in firefox but in IE the whole section sits to the extreme right.

It displays properly in all other major browsers (firefox, safari, chrome, opera and even ie6) but for some reason in IE7 the header imager overlaps the menubar. The site is (vividmark.com.au) and if anyone could shead some light on this, I'd be very greatful. Thanks. I have edited this page down to be bare-bones for ease... The background image only shows behind the 'branding' div. It used to show all the way down. The problem is somewhere in the style sheet because it looks the same even when I take out all content between the body tags. I am not sure what mistake I made. When you look at the style sheet you will find html#orchid to be commented out. I realized how to work with that to fix the problem, however I want to know what is causing this problem in the first place, for my further education. http://www.centerpointpilates.com/welcome2.html code: Code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?><!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en"> <head> <title>CENTERPOINT PILATES :: a Santa Barbara pilates studio</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <link href="/centerpoint.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> </head> <body background="/images/orchidYellowOverlay2.jpg" style="background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: top left;"> <div id="branding"> <h1>CenterPoint Pilates - Exercising the Body and Mind</h1> </div> <!--end branding--> <div id="content"> <div id="navigation"> <ul> <li><a href="/welcome.html">WELCOME</a></li> <li><a href="/studio.html">STUDIO</a></li> <li><a href="/getting-started.html">GETTING STARTED</a></li> <li><a href="/classes.html">CLASSES</a></li> <li><a href="/schedule.html">CLASS SCHEDULE</a></li> <li><a href="/workshops.html">WORKSHOPS</a></li> <li><a href="/pricing.html">PRICING</a></li> <li><a href="/instructors.html">TEACHERS</a></li> <li><a href="/contact-us.html">CONTACT US</a></li> </ul> </div> <!--end navigation--> <div id="text"> <h2>Welcome</h2> <p>CenterPoint Pilates was founded in 2001 with the goal of inspiring each individual on a program of exercising the body and mind.

However, lower in the (div left column) I wish to make another list and align it left. The problem is it won't align all the way to the left. It stops at about the center of the div. I didn't notice it on the first list because it aligned right just fine but it also stops in the middle.

Hi guys, Bit of an annoying problem here, Ive got this navbar up and running using image rollovers, and it works fine in IE, however if firefox and safari it displays wrong, heres my code and what happens, Thanks in advance, Scott. HTML: Code: <div class="navbar"> <ul id="navlist"> <li><a href="./shop">SHOP NOW</a></li> <li><a href="index.php">HOME</a></li> <li><a href="contact.php">CONTACT</a></li> <li><a href="faq.php">F.A.Q.</a></li> </ul> </div> CSS: Code: .navbar { font-family:Impact; font-size: 23px; text-align:center; height:54px; } .navbar li { list-style:none; display:inline; } .navbar a { width:198px; color:#FFFFFF; background:url("rollover.gif") no-repeat; padding:12px 10px 13px; margin:0 0px; } .navbar a:hover { background-position:0 -59px; color:#000000; } .navbar a:active { background-position:0 -118px; color:#FFFFFF; } Displayed in IE: URL Displayed in FF/Safari: URL Hi all, This is the xHTML link This is the CSS file. Please open this in Internet Explorer. Notice that when the drop-down menu falls over the drop-down list form, it gets hidden beneath the list. I've spent a whole week trying to fix this but wasn't successful This works perfectly in Firefox though. Thanks!! hey i was just wondering how i can fix the left menu to display properly in Opera. it works in Moziila and i have a seperate style sheet for IE but Opera is no go. are there any hacks that will fix the positoning? the site is located at: http://studentwork.qantm.com.au/pking/Website/ and css is at: http://studentwork.qantm.com.au/pking/Website/ptwm.css any help would be great cheers Hey, I use div's to create my page structure (you can see it on the screenshot) http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/...tructurege3.jpg The green part is the navigation and the blue part the contents of the page. But as you see the colors both dont fill up till the bottom of the document. And if i set: height: 100%; then it will fill up to the bottom, but when the contents gets to big and a scrollbar is needed, then the part that you scroll down is not filled up with the colors anymore. Does anybody know how to fix this? Thanks in advance. I give up. *falls over* So.. I'm dabbling in CSS. I have a general idea of how it's used and all that good stuff... I'm just having some massive issues with some of the coding. Issues that I should not be having. I'm attempting to change the color of links, visited, active, hover and otherwise. But here's where it gets strange. I get the links to change color. But... they won't all change. My code was initially more complex, but with this problem I've hacked it down to this incase there was some non working bit of text somewhere that was making something not parse properly... Code: A:link { color:#2A2C8B; } A:visited { color:#1D1D2D; } A:active { color:white; } A:hover { color:#7A7CBB; } In this example, visited, active and hover work beautifully. Link, on the other hand, is the same old boring color as usual. So in a fit of desperation, i alter my coding as follows: Code: A:visited { color:#1D1D2D; } A:link { color:#2A2C8B; } A:active { color:white; } A:hover { color:#7A7CBB; } now the visited link does not work, and the bottom three do. Why? why? *cry* here's the entierity of my style sheet, if anybody wants it. Code: <style type="text/css"> A:link { color:#2A2C8B; } A:active { color:white; } A:visited { color:#1D1D2D; } A:hover { color:#7A7CBB; } body { Font-variant: Arial; color: #111128; font-size: small; background: #6C5165; background-image: url(swirlstar2.jpg); background-repeat: repeat; background-attachment: fixed; margin-left: 10%; margin-right: 10%; h1 { margin-left: -8%; } h2,h3,h4,h5,h6 { margin-left: -4%; } } </style> I am aware that there may well be an error or five in the body section... but I honestly havn't done alot of work there yet. my main concern is getting the links to work properly. And yes, I've tried snipping out the body tags and like leaving the link stuff there and it doesn't work. I've checked this in both Firefox and IE. My editor is notepad. Help? It's really appreciated... thank you. |
