CSS - Mysterious Extra Spacing In Ie8
Um... OK so I wrote a post asking if anybody knew why something was displaying incorrectly on my site, but due to forum rules I wasn't allowed to include any links. So how can I show you the problem if I can't show you? Also, the link saying "see forum rules for more information" didn't have any more information. Like, how many posts until I can ask for help and actually show what the problem is?
Similar TutorialsHi folks, my website section "www(dot)mail(dot)tssma(dot)net" has an extra blue bar at the bottom of the page even though i specifically set it to 900 with the following css. I actually dont know why its blue either. Code:
body
{
background-image: url('http://www.tssma.net/templates/renrentemplate/images/Page-BgSimpleGradient.jpg');
top:0;
width: 100%;
height: 900px;
Not only that i cant seem to change the Username and Password input which is currently grey, to black using the css. Help will be greatly appreciated EDIT: Hahah yay, i somehow got rid of the bar on the bottom just need help with the grey input fonts. Hi there guys, This is a pretty specific problem to my website, but I can't seem to find out why part of my navigation list moves down when an element is shown by Javascript in IE. So I can't plug in a url into this post, so I suppose I'll just explain the problem. I have a list navigation with images, and within one of the list elements is another nested list. When I click on the link that then uses JS to display the subnavigation, the link below that shifts down something like four pixels when its not supposed to, and I couldn't fix it by playing with CSS for some reason, but I'm assuming the problem is hidden in there somewhere. I've been trying to resolve this for a couple days; if anyone could help me out, I'd really appreciate it! Hello all, firstly, thank you for all you contribute to this question. I have a website (as everyone does) which has a problem (which i always do). I have an embeded flash file and 2 lines of text which are seperated into 2 different divs inside a table cell. I am using css to position these texts over the flash file, which is just fine. The only problem I am recieving is that while using the position: relative in css for these it leaves extra unneeded space under the flash file where the text would be if they were not being positioned. Here is the page wit hthe problem: Look at the header So I am stumped. I have posted away in other CSS forums and have received no replies at all, I have googled it many times and found the same problem, but the solution will only work for that individuals situation. So, what can be done. Here is my html for the header cell: Code: <table id=main cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0> <tr> <td class=head colspan=2 height=144px> <param name="movie" value="test.swf"> <param name="quality" value="high"> <param name="wmode" value="transparent"> <embed src='images/test.swf' width=762px height=144px wmode="transparent" style="z-index: 1;" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed><div class='headtitle'><? echo $title; ?></div><div class='headquote'><? echo $quote; ?></div></td> </tr> And here is the css that is used by that cell: Code:
table#main {
height : 100%;
background : #ffffff;
width : 762px;
border : 0 none inherit;
border-left : 1px solid #000;
border-right : 1px solid #000;
border-top : 0 none inherit;
border-bottom : 0 none inherit;
margin : 0;
padding : 0;
}
table#main td.head {
height : 0px;
width : 762px;
background : #006699;
border : 0 none inherit;
border-bottom : 2px solid #000;
vertical-align : top;
padding : 0;
background-image: url(images/logo2.jpg);
}
table#main td.head div.flash {
position: relative;
z-index:1;
}
table#main td.head div.headtitle {
z-index:2;
font-size : 24pt;
color : #fff;
position : relative;
font-weight : bold;
left : 5px;
top : -45px;
}
table#main td.head div.headquote {
z-index:2;
font-size : 10pt;
font-weight : bold;
color : #fff;
position : relative;
text-align : right;
right : 5px;
top : -180px;
font-style: italic;
}
Im sure its something Im looking over as I am a newb at css. Thanks for all help! On my new design: http://codymays.net/~private_ftp/theed The header and footer of the green block have a space on them and I cannot figure out why. I had this problem with the design before, but I started over and now I only have this issue with IE6 and below. It works in all other browsers. I can clear the spaces if I set the margin-top of the block's content area to -4 and the footer's margin-top to -4. But once this is done, IE then redraws the div at the bottom of the page for no apparent reason. Any ideas/suggestions on what to do here would be appreciated. Thanks, Cody Please poke around this site - http://swansonre.tmhdesign.com/home-payment-calculator.asp See the main content area (in white). It should butt up to the green navigation area but instead I get a gap for some reason or another. I've dissected this page up and down, left and right, but can't find what is causing the issue. If you browse some other pages you will see they are just fine. Thanks so much. T I just don't understand IE... something that should work just doesnt, and then it works fine on another page.... for example... Scroll Over The Staff Links at the very bottom You will notice that the black background disappears when viewed in IE... but take a look at the code isolated in IE and it looks perfect... I have a region with a div, an image and another div stacked vertically. For some reason, there are a few pixels of blank space between the image and the bottom div. http://www.brucethorn.com/index.php...maritime-sunday On another page, I have regions with a "line-height + vertical-align:middle" centering of an image that make up thumb nails. There too is a few pixels of blank space, but at the top and images, pushing them down and slightly outside of the div that contains each of them. http://www.brucethorn.com/index.php/paintings I suspect these are the same problem, but I could be wrong. The issue is most visable in FF, and noticable in Opera. I only see something sporadic for the second occurence in IE Code: body {background-color:#999999; margin:0px; padding:0px; border:0px; text-align:center; font-family:"Courier New", Courier, mono;}
h1.header {height:16px; width:800px; _width:776px; font-size:100%; font-weight:bold; margin:0px 0px 0px 24px; text-align:left; background-color:#333333;}

So this is my first time every going this in-depth with creating a website from scratch simply using CSS. So far with the help of many tutorials it's been really great. However, shortly after adding my layout to my code a problem arose. For a while it was okay. I started creating different containers and parts of the page. But then after one save this bar magically appeared. After ctrl-z'ing as far as I could and refreshing I could not find the problem. Here is a picture of the bar above the page: http://tinypic.com/r/124zv47/7 Here's the code: Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">

<style type="text/css">
/*Currently not in use*/
.className {

}
/*Surrounding background cover*/
#outside_container {
background: url(Slice.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-color: #000;

}
/*Actual background*/
#container {

Hi, folks. I'm having a curious problem with the navigation on my page. I'd like the nav and header to be all on the same line. It works when I just include the nav icons as images directly in the HTML. But when I make the nav icons into links, set each link to display:block, and give it the appropriate background-image, it puts all the icons on a new line. I'm not sure why. Any ideas? You can see the page with the problem and the effect I'm trying to achieve at these two TinyURLs: Problem: TinyURL dotcomslash a8qnky Working: TinyURL dotcomslash 8tj29l (The HTML validates, and the CSS validates except for the IE PNG transparency fix. I'm still experiencing this problem without that fix in place.) I'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? Hi guys, I'm pretty new to CSS. I had this style sheet set up, and it was working in Firefox just fine. When I tested it on IE, the center logo instead of being approximately 15 pixels down from the top, it's right at the top. I was able to get those 15 pixels to appear in IE with 2 changes, but now there is an extra 15 pixels in Firefox, so it is down approx. 30 pixels. Can anybody see what I'm doing wrong, or provide a hack that will fix it? css Code: Original - css Code /* This CSS works in FF. I have put the changes in comments that will make it work in IE. Both changes were in the Header section. */ body { margin:0px; margin-bottom:50px; padding:0px; text-align:center; background-image:url(../images/bg-grn2.gif); } a:link {color:#0000EF;} a:active {color:#EF0000;} a:visited {color:#52188C;} div#FS-Logo { position:absolute; top:10px; left:10px; height:110px; width:100px; background:url(../images/left-logo.gif) top left no-repeat; margin:10px; padding:0; } div#FWS-Logo { position:absolute; top:10px; right:10px; height:110px; width:100px; background:url(../images/right-logo.gif) top right no-repeat; margin:10px; padding:0; } div#Header { width:300px; height:140px; /*change this to 155px*/ margin:0px auto; text-align:center; font-family:"Trebuchet MS", serif; background:url(../images/center-logo.gif) no-repeat top center;/*change this to 'no-repeat center center'*/ } div#Main-content { width:55%; height:500px; margin:0px auto; text-align:left; padding:0px; border:1px dashed #333; background-color:#ded794; font-family:verdana, sans serif; font-size:12px; } div#Left-column { position:absolute; top:155px; left:15px; width:15%; height:500px; margin:0; text-align:left; border:1px dashed #333; background-color:#ded794; font-family:verdana, sans serif; font-size:12px; } div#Right-column { position:absolute; top:155px; right:15px; width:15%; height:500px; margin:0; text-align:left; border:1px dashed #333; background-color:#ded794; font-family:verdana, sans serif; font-size:12px; } div#Footer { position:static; bottom:10px; right:15px; width:100%; margin:0; padding:0; text-align:center; font-family:verdana, sans serif; font-size:14px; } .hd-header {color:#8A4B2C;} .hd-footer {color:#000000;} .hd-main {color:#FFFFFF;} /* This CSS works in FF.

So I am trying to move from designing in <tables> and move on to the beauty of the CSS box-model design. I have been inspired by one of the ZenGarden designs and wanted to see if I could try and duplicate it's flow. I am running into a problem. I have created the outer box "#mainBox" and nested within this I have a child "#pageHeader." Problem is that there is this big amount of space (that is present in both IE6 AND FireFox 1.0) at the bottom of "#pageHeader." See the attached pic for the exact detail. Here is my code: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/loose.dtd">

Thanks in advanced for any help! http://www.zombiepolitics.com Just when I thought I had this down .. I dont. I have a CSS layout .. there are two main divs side by side, the navigation rests at the top of the right div. problem is in IE 6 there is so much extra space at the top that my navigation doesnt line up with my header .. in FF its no problem. What is the workaround for this? Hi, I am new here, asked this question at another forum and never got an answer so I hope someone here can help. "Is there any way to remove 200px from the bottom of my site and keep the same layout using divs? I had to give the wide div next to the thin one a top: -208px to get it to line up with the thin one. and then I had to bring up the copyright one the same way so it lined up under them. Now I am stuck with an extra 200px under them (really it's 208, but I want an 8px space at the bottom)." Site: http://www.kendallstudios.com/index2.php CSS File: http://www.kendallstudios.com/styles/standard.css I'm having some troubles getting my div to appear correctly. WHat I want is for the div to be completely contained by a FLASH movie with no whitespace. In Firefox I'm getting an approximately 5px tall white bar at the top. TWH is the url, the flash movie only appears on the main page. My container div uses a background image with a greenish colored 200px left edge, and then a white edge to fill the rest. I know this is what's coming through, but what baffles me is that even when specifying a background color for my div it's not coming through. Here is some of the code: CSS: Code:
#container {
width: 760px;
height: auto;
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: center;
overflow: auto;
background: url('../images/style/container_back.jpg') repeat-y;
border-bottom: 20px solid #6e868f;
}
#lcol {
width: 200px;
height: 380px;
float: left;
text-align: left;
}
#nav {
height: auto;
background-color: #000000;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
#nav ul
{
list-style: none;
padding: 20px 0px;
margin: 0px;
}
#nav ul li
{
padding: 7px;
}
#info {
height: auto;
width: 190px;
text-align: center;
padding: 5px;
font-size: 11px;
}
#flashcontent
{
width: 560px;
height: 380px;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
float: right;
}
HTML -- I've taken the content out so that the structure is more clear. Code:
<div id="container">
<div id="header">
<div id="logo"></div>
<div id="quote"></div>
</div>
<div id="lcol">
<div id="nav"></div>
<div id="info"></div>
</div><!--lcol-->
<div id="flashcontent">
FLASH player is required to view portions of this site.<br /><br />
<a href="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" target="_blank">
<img src="images/logos/get_flash_player.gif" alt="FLASH player" height="31" width="88" /></a>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("slideshow.swf", "gallery", "560", "380", "6", "#6e868f");
so.write("flashcontent");
</script>
</div><!-- end container --><br />
