CSS - Css Margin Issue - Wordpress Site
Similar TutorialsI've been looking through many, many forums trying to resolve this issue, so please forgive me if there is a solution to this that I've missed. Here's the deal: On some installs of Firefox (4.0), the body is being positioned 28px lower than the top of the screen. I set the <html> tag to have a light blue background to troubleshoot the issue, and now there is a light blue bar across the top of the page, proving that it is the body of the page that is lower than it should be. I thought it was a Firefox "collapsing margin" issue, so I added "margin:0; to almost everything, and it didn't help. I'm trying to do this without having to absolutely position everything. Here's the site: www-dot-myportlandtours-dot-com here's the css: www-dot-myportlandtours-dot-com/wp-content/themes/myportlandtours/style.css Anybody have insight into this? Background info: - I have validated the page and CSS, no problems there - Site is working properly in Firefox and IE, seems to be a margin issue in Safari -This margin issue is not the common Safari bug with a negative margin being applied to a floated element -I am using Safari in a windows environment, I do not have a Mac The problem: -in Safari the top margin on the content either is either not being applied at all or is being interpreted differently -it may be of note that I was having the same issue with IE, but was able to specify an IE specific style sheet for it, I don't believe this is possible in Safari?

I cannot see where this comment is comming from though?. the code for my header.php is : here Hi I have been trying to remove certain items from the admin bar which appear at the top of all WordPress pages. I've managed to remove the 'visit' menu from it by reading a forum elsewhere and editing CSS but I have had no luck with researching how to remove the site name that appears first on the left of the admin bar. Does anyone here know how I can do it? Thanks I aim to create my own wordpress theme eventually, but for now I have been trying to customize free open source themes made by others.

Thanks I'd appreciate any help with this, thanks in advance. So, I purchased a Wordpress template, installed it, works fine. In some of the posts I'm creating for the site, I want to include simple tables.... problem is, somewhere, somehow, the CSS file for the template I purchased is setting certain style rules for the tables I create. Including a background image. So, it's messing up my tables. I tried setting new table rules this basic way: .argh td { my styles here } then for my tables in my posts: <table class="argh"> It seems to be taking the text formatting that I included that way ... but the dang background image from some style somewhere else keeps showing up no matter what I do. :| Any help would be much appreciated. This main navigation does not display properly in Safari and I was hoping somone might be able to tell me why http://hometown.tmhdesign.com Hello, first post here =) I'm having a margin/border problem where it is showing up the way I want it to in IE but not in FF. Here is the URL: http://www.prj2501.com Here is the CSS: http://www.prj2501.com/puppetmaster.css DOCTYPE is XHTML-STRICT In IE you will notice the extra border below the nav followed by the padding for the content ID which places the H3 where I want it. In FF, the border and the padding are both gone. In trying to debug this, I notice nothing I do above the H3(padding,margin,etc.) takes effect in FF...yet left and right padding do. The only way to get it to move down is BR tags and I'd rather not do that. Any ideas, suggestions? I am just now getting the hang of CSS so if you see anything glaring that does not seem best-practice, by all means point it out. Thanks in advance. Hi all, I've been reading this forum for a while now, but never had to post anything before. I've hit a snag whilst working on my new personal site. Its all fine in Firefox, I'm using a Wordpress engine to spit out 'posts' which are actually folio items, however IE, after the first one, the second one and every one after that have some extreme margin/padding issue so that the content area is only maybe 20px wide. www dot lucas-starbuck dot com forwardslash design is the site address, any ideas would be much appreciated! Thanks, Lucas I've got an "IE" issue! This CSS code looks perfect in IE7 and Firefox. It is a photo box that offsets 225 pixels to the left of the text box. Code: #inside_offset_image { width: 319px; float: left; margin-left: -225px; margin-right: 30px; margin-bottom: 30px; } But when I test in IE5.5 and IE6, this photo box runs almost completely off the left side of the browser. The actual test page is located he http://penncomm.com/bean/inside.html Any ideas? Take a look at http://actrucking.com/. I just added the orange link towards the middle of the page that says "Get a FREE Online Quote Now!!" I'd like to push it down a bit so it is more centered in the blue area, but I can't seem to get the text to acknowledge margin or padding? Here are what the styles look like: Code: #tlCallBox { background:#336799; height:75px; display:block; float:left; width:868px; margin-left:10px; position:relative; margin-bottom:30px} #tlCallBox h2{ color:white; font-size:19px; margin: 15px 0 0 30px} #tlCallBox p { color:White; margin-left:32px} #tlCallBox b { margin:20px 0 0 120px; font-weight:bold; font-size:20pt} Remove. Please look at the main navigation on this site www.downtowntransmission.com I have it exactly how I want it in IE7 but it is a bit off in FF. Mouseover the Contact link and Gallery Link and you will see what I mean. Is there some small adjustment I can make to make it look the same in both? As a side note, do you like the site? T http://www.bath.ac.uk/~su2photo/test.php i've been playing around with the css, trying to get the page to display properly, and i get something which i'm reasonably happy with in firefox, but as always when cross checking, ie drops the ball. this time however, the the difference doesn't seem to be consistent . The two boxes you see, should both have titles flush to the top of their containers. In ie, only one seems to manage this. html: PHP Code: <div id="menubox"> <div class="topic"> <h3>Menu</h3> </div> <div id="menubody"> <ul> <li><a href="index.php?s=1">Introduction</a></li><li><a href="index.php?s=2">Organisation</a></li><li><a href="index.php?s=3">Galleries</a></li><li><a href="index.php?s=4">Communication</a></li><li><a href="index.php?s=5">Equipment</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> <div id="mainbox"> <div class="topic"> <h3>Introduction</h3> </div> <div id="main"> <p> Text <br /><br /> Text </p> </div> </div> css: PHP Code: html, body{ font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1em; color: #FFF; background-color: #000; text-align: center; } #logoimg{ border: 0px; width: 90px; height: 90px; } div#container{ position: relative; top: 50px; margin: 0 auto; text-align: left; width: 900px; } div#mainbox{ float: left; padding-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #290000; background-color: #130000; width: 630px; text-align: center; } div#menubox{ float: right; border: 1px solid #290000; background-color: #130000; width: 230px; text-align: center; } div#main{ margin: 0 auto; width: 600px; text-align: left; } div#menubody{ margin: 0 auto; width: 200px; text-align: left; } div.topic{ text-align: left; background-color: #290000; } h3{ padding-left: 10px; margin-top: 0; } ul{ list-style-type: none; text-align: left; } this one's got me fuzzled, any idea? (if my whole technique is all wrong, then can you suggest a better way?) cheers guys (I apologise for the length of this , i did attempt to cut it down ) Hello, I am working on a site. theweedkiller dot com I have 3 links which are being laid out using a <ul> The problem is the margin between home and service is fine, but the margin between services and contact seems to be double the size. I have tried adding display:inline; and it seemed to do nothing. I am getting this problem in Chrome, Firefox, and IE8. I am using a CSS reset too. Heres is the HTML I am using - <div id="nav"> <ul> <li> <a href="index.html" id="current">Home</a> </li> <li> <a href="services.html">Service</a> </li> <li> <a href="contact.html">Contact</a> </li> </ul> </div> <!--end of nav div--> Heres is the CSS I am using - #nav ul { margin-left:370px; list-style-type:none; } #nav ul li { float:left; display:inline; } #nav ul li a { font-family:"Myriad Pro", Arial, sans-serif; font-size:20px; font-weight:bold; color:#302013; padding:25px 50px 5px 50px; background-image:url(images/nav.png); background-repeat:no-repeat; text-decoration:none; display:inline; margin-right:10px;!important } #nav ul li a:hover { font-family:"Myriad Pro", Arial, sans-serif; font-size:20px; font-weight:bold; color:#fff; background-image:url(images/nav-over.png); background-repeat:no-repeat; text-decoration:none; } #nav #current { font-family:"Myriad Pro", Arial, sans-serif; font-size:20px; font-weight:bold; color:#fff; background-image:url(images/nav-over.png); background-repeat:no-repeat; text-decoration:none; } I have no clue why this is happening. Any help would be useful. Thanks! Please look at this layout Layout Example In IE7 there is a gap between the footer and upper divs that I am not sure what is causing. The other issue I would appreciate help with is the #right div element. When the #content div has a higher height I want the #right div element to stretch with it (and vice versa). Any help would be appreciated. Tom Hello, I'm new to CSS but code is beginning to make more sense, for the most part. I've been able to transform an existing template into something more custom. The theme over all has turned out well and I'm happy with it. There is one snag that I'm running into and I really would appreciate someone with more experience and a better understanding of css framework to give me guidance. The issue: The "Comments/Respond" section for each blog post is getting pushed down rather far and there are odd little blue dots showing up to the right, just below the post itself, but before the beginning of the comments section. Now, I did try plugging the CSS code into the validation service and have found some warnings. The thing is, many of these issues were in the template (I didn't change them or edit them). So would the errors that the validation tool found be interfering with how the comment section is getting pushed down? Example of errors: Quote: 318 input[type="text"], textarea Property box-shadow doesn't exist in CSS level 2.1 but exists in : inset 1px 1px 1px rgba(0,0,0,0.1) inset 1px 1px 1px rgba(0,0,0,0.1) 319 input[type="text"], textarea Property -moz-box-shadow doesn't exist : inset 1px 1px 1px rgba(0,0,0,0.1) inset 1px 1px 1px rgba(0,0,0,0.1) 320 input[type="text"], textarea Property -webkit-box-shadow doesn't exist : inset 1px 1px 1px rgba(0,0,0,0.1) inset 1px 1px 1px rgba(0,0,0,0.1) 823 .wp-caption Property -moz-border-radius-bottomleft doesn't exist : 3px 3px 824 .wp-caption Property -moz-border-radius-bottomright doesn't exist : 3px 3px 825 .wp-caption Property -moz-border-radius-topleft doesn't exist : 3px 3px 826 .wp-caption Property -moz-border-radius-topright doesn't exist : 3px 3px 1149 .submitbutton Value Error : float attempt to find a semi-colon before the property name. add it 1286 pre Property -webkit-text-size-adjust doesn't exist : 140% 140% 1289 code Property -webkit-text-size-adjust doesn't exist : 160% 160% 1296 #access, .entry-meta, .entry-utility, .navigation, .widget-area Property -webkit-text-size-adjust doesn't exist : 120% 120% 1299 #site-description Property -webkit-text-size-adjust doesn't exist : none none The thing is, I'm rather confused as to where to pinpoint the gap. In the CSS stylesheet the blog posts which are called out as "Content" live under an id called "Main". The comments seem to live under Main as well and seem to be in their own segment. I just can't figure out how to either pull the comment segment/table whatever you'd call it up more snug with the post, or eliminate whatever excess space is pushing comments down so far and causing the mysterious blue dots. I would post a link to what I'm talking about but I'm too new to the forum. Thanks in advance! Hello guys, I have beginner CSS experience. I am using a free wordpress theme. I have begun to modify the theme and have run into a problem. I have checked all over the web for resources to resolve this issue to no avail. I have used the CSS Validator and received some errors nothing that affects this. ISSUE: When clicking "Read More" the image appears twice, once as the limited size and once as the full size. I would like only the first image to appear not the full size one too. SITE: havenhart[dot] com Any help would be super. |
