CSS - <ol> Why Does A Table Not Align To Top???

how do i center align table on page with CSS?

Hi all,
We have a table layout we're experiencing some issues with on users that have smaller screens. Below is a simple 1 row example of elements contained in our div tables

Code:

<div class="tracks-result-page" style="">
  <div class="track-element">
      <input class="track-select-checkbox" type="checkbox"><h4 class="track-name">Track</h4><span class="created-date">23-Jul-2008 17:13</span><span class="duration">47m</span><a href="#" class="view-button">view</a><a href="/viewtrack" class="edit-button">edit</a><a href="#" class="details-button">show details</a><input value="d5f173a2-b35e-4489-b468-33a05b1e4997" class="track-id" type="hidden">
  </div>
  <div class="track-element">
  ....more elements
  </div>
</div>

Basically, I have 800 px to fit this data in from our site template. What's happening is on smaller resolutions, the 3 anchor tags aren't fitting in 800 px due to large font size vs table width, and the anchor elements are wrapping around. I have a lot of white space after the description, and currently have a fixed width on that div. What I need is to right align everything from the "created-date" class to the end of the element, then left align the "track-select-checkbox" and the "track-name" elements. I'm having a really tough time doing this for some reason. I can't use "float:right;" on the elements that need right aligned. If I do, they all appear in reverse order! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks,
Todd

I have a css layout I'm working, that is all divs (my first time doing this without tables).

My page consists of all divs, and then the body is a table for displaying date from a database.

My problem is that I have the footer positioned absolutely at the bottom of the page, which is what I want, EXCEPT when the table extends longer and the user needs to scroll down.

If the table does not extend the full height of the screen, then I want the footer at the bottom of the screen, but if the table extends past the bottom of the screen, I need to footer to be at the end of the table.

I hope that makes sense.

CSS Tags -- Just a portion of them:

Code:

body {
  margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
  background-color: #E7F1FD;
  font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
  height: 100%;
}
/*This is the main body of the page and contains the db data*/
#pwdb_body {  
  background-color: #E7F1FD;
  border: 2px solid #FFF;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  position: absolute;
  top: 165px;
}
/*Footer */
#left_footer {
  background-image:url(images/bar_header2.jpg);
  width:100%;
  height:36px;
  position:absolute;
  bottom: 0px;
}

My DIVS (partial):

Code:

<!-- START BODY -->
<div id="pwdb_body">
<table width=100% border=1 name="main_body" bordercolor="#000000" style="border-collapse: collapse;" cellspacing=0 cellpadding=1>
<tr>
  <td>...table data...</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<div id="left_footer"><img src="images/index_02.gif"/></div>

I have attached a screenshot of what I'm talking about. The footer bar is highlighted in a red box, and the table bottom is pointed out by a red arrow.

I have a header wrapper for a column heading that sets the width and background of the column header. In that column header I have a tag for the header title, which is aligned left.

Know, I find that the customer wants to add an "As of Date", on the same line, but wants it aligned right.

Is this even possible to do? I cannot seem to come up with the correct .css code that would allow me to do this.

html code

Code:

<div class="wide_column_header"><span class="headerbartext">Make Your Enrollment Selection</span><span class="headerbartextright">As of 3/31/2008</span></div>

css tags:
Code:

.wide_column_header {
  float:left;
  width:558px;
  margin:0 0 0 5px;
  background-image:url(../images/wide_header.jpg);
  height:21px;
  font-size:100%;
  font-weight:900;
  line-height:100%;
  vertical-align:bottom;
  color:#fff;}

.headerbartext {
  font-size: 12px;
  font-weight:bold;
  text-align:right;
  padding-left:15px;
  line-height: 140%;}

.headerbartextright {
  font-size: 12px;
  font-weight:bold;
  text-align:right;
  padding-right:15px;
  line-height: 140%;}

Hi,
How do I place "progress.gif" so that it is in the vertical middle in relation to <input type="text"
Right now it is OK in Interent Explorer 6 but appears too high in FireFox.
Code:

<div>
<label>City:</label>
<span><input type="text" name="city" /><span><img src="progress.gif" border="0" /></span></span></div>

I tried this to no avail.
<span style="padding-top:5px"><img src=...
Thank you.

I can usually figure out most CSS problems but this one is a mystery.

The following creates a curved box by covering the corner with an image. The problem is in IE6.0, the corner images do not align at the top but display about 10 pixels below it, so therefore I have a the box line and corners at the top and then the curved corners below it. Other browsers display fine, including IE7.0.

Why is it doing this?

Here is the CSS:

Code:

<style type="text/css">
.contain {
position:relative; top:0; left:0; text-align:left; padding:0; border:1px solid #ccc; margin:0 0 10px 0; background-color:#fff; vertical-align:top;
}
.corner-top { display:block; font-size:0; line-height:0; margin:0; height:8px; width:100%; position:relative; top:-1px; right:-1px; background:transparent url(/images/crn_tr_bb.gif) no-repeat top right;}
.corner-top .corner-left { display:block; font-size:0; line-height:0; margin:0; height:8px; width:8px; position:relative; left:-2px; background:transparent url(/images/crn_tl_bb.gif) no-repeat top left; }
.corner-bottom { display:block; font-size:0; line-height:0; margin:0; height:8px; width:100%; position:relative; bottom:-1px; right:-1px; background: transparent url(/images/crn_br_bb.gif) no-repeat bottom right;}
.corner-bottom .corner-left { display:block; font-size:0; line-height:0; margin:0; height:8px; width:8px; position:relative; left:-2px; background: transparent url(/images/crn_bl_bb.gif) no-repeat bottom left; }
</style>

<div class="contain">
	<div class="corner-top"><div class="corner-left"></div></div>
    <div class="intro" style="position:relative;"><p>Text here...</p>
	<div class="corner-bottom"><div class="corner-left"></div></div>
    </div>

Hi,

I have a problem where my image on top there is a little gap below it. This only happens in Internet Explorer and not Mozilla; i wish to rid of that gap. Also I am wondering how would I align the text on the right, i have tried applying the vertical-align: bottom but it does not work. Here is the link: http://www.bluebushel.com/temp/real.html The code is below.

Hey i'm new to this forum thing so here goes.

I'm stuck trying to align an image in the center of an e-mail template.
I'm using inline CSS to keep the template as small as possible.

The code i have is:
<img src="yes_group.jpg" alt="Yes Company Logo" height="100" width="50%" />

I need something i can put into that line of code to center the image. I've searched a few different site for hints (or the actual tag i need) but can't seem to find it anywhere.

Any help would be greatly received so if you have any idea's please let me know.

Thank You.

I have both Chinese characters and English characters in one paragraph, but they don't align to the bottom with the English characters appearing like <sup>. I have used 'vertical-align' to align the text, but not successful. Pls help.

Hi,

I am trying to use the vertical-align property to make some text appear in the middle of a div (set float:left). However it is not working. Following is some sample code I have done for testing: Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
        "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html>
 <head>
  <title>ccc</title>
  <style>

   div{

    width:16.7em;
    height:6.8em;
    border:1px solid black;
    vertical-align:middle;
    float:left;
   }

  </style>

 </head>

 <body>

  <div>hello</div>

 </body>
</html>

Is this possible?

Thanks and Regards,

Hi all,

I have a layout where I have a banner at the top and I want the column below it to align in the center of the page, like this ... How can I do this?

Also, can someone tell me how to make the top banner column fill the whole width of the page?

Thanks.

ok so i have a photo gallery and the images vary in height. and so instead of having them defaulted to top aligned, i'm try to figure out how to get them to bottom align. anyone have any ideas or articles i can check out?

thx
