CSS - Navigation Buttons Don't Fit
I've created navigation buttons in Photoshop by making an 818px wide document, spacing out the words, then slicing them up. My navigation division is 818px wide but when I insert the buttons I created, they don't fit. I do not have any borders around them that I can tell.
Why would this happen? http://www.oharenoise.org/new/2009_news_releases.htm Similar TutorialsMy vertical CSS navigation menu buttons overflow when adding 10 or more buttons. The new buttons end up to the right side of the top buttons. If I change the html format for paragraph format it stops this, but in IE there becomes big space between the buttons. Here is the site: http:// bradleyrose . net / WaterStreetRestaurant I am trying to line 4 div tags in a horizontal line. It's pretty much consists of 4 buttons on a horizontal panel. I can do this with a table with 4 columns. How do I do this with div tags? Thanks in advance. I'm just wondering everyones opinions on what the best way to do a rollover navigation button is. Should I use two background images and on hover switch the background image? Is using one background image and moving the background up or down to switch between the images better? Is there another better way to do rollovers that i'm missing? I'm not really sure if I like the loading time that it takes to load the roll over image, and am wondering what method you guys use to achieve a similar effect. Hello I'm a newbie on this forum and have a CSS problem I could do with some help on. On this website www . glewstonecourt . com (please remove spaces as I can't post links just yet!) I've been told by the client that some website visitors are experiencing problems with the navigation..... the first few buttons are appearing fine, but then the subsequent ones aren't.... but I can't seem to replicate the problem! Any suggestions anyone? bren Hi All, I am building a site that has the following structure for the navigation; Code: <div id="navigation"> <ul id="navlist"> <li class="home"><a href="../index.asp" title="home"><span>home</span></a></li> <li class="aboutus"><a href="../aboutus.htm" title="aboout us"><span>about us</span></a></li> <li class="ourservices"><a href="../ourservices.htm" title="our services"><span>our services</span></a> <ul> <li class="internationalmail"><a href="ourservices_internationalmail.htm" title="international mail"><span>international mail</span></a></li> <li class="worldwidecourier"><a href="ourservices_worldwidecourier.htm" title="worldwide courier"><span>worldwide courier</span></a></li> <li class="worldwidefreight"><a href="ourservices_worldwidefreight.htm" title="worldwide freight"><span>worldwide freight</span></a></li> <li class="storage"><a href="ourservices_storage.htm" title="storage"><span>storage</span></a></li> <li class="publishingservices"><a href="ourservices_publishingservices.htm" title="publishing services"><span>publishing services</span></a></li> </ul> </li> <li class="requestquote"><a href="../requestquote.htm" title="request a quote"><span>request a quote</span></a></li> <li class="contactus"><a href="../contactus.htm" title="contact us"><span>contact us</span></a></li> </ul> </div> The main LI is horizontal, and the containing UL, LI is a vertical dropdown. The seperate CSS file does the image replacements on the <a> and hides the text within the <span>, usual stuff. The nav works great, with the graphic rollovers etc. The rollover, again, standard way of doing it, background: url(<FILE>) no-repeat top left; and the a:hover rollover is a background: bottom left;. Edit: Just noticed that I can't link to the full site that I have uploaded for preview. What I want to do, is when the user roll's over any of the items within the sub-navigation, it keeps the main Services navigation link rolled over also. The only way I could think of doing this, and relatively simply, would be to use JavaScript, but wanted to explore any other CSS ways of doing this. For example, is it possible to change a style of another class, from another? Your help would be much appreciated! I'm pretty new to CSS, but I've managed to put together a website based from a psd, that validates and everything has gone well. My menu, however, is pretty shoddy. I have everything positioned the way I want it, but what I want to do is convert the lists inside from dropping down to being horizontal parallell to the nav bar itself. From: --- --- --- --- | | To: _ _ _ --- --- --- --- The site is here. Ignore the issues with the absolute positioning; its because of the ads at the top, and it doesn't affect the nav bar. I am desperatefor some help, it is ridiculous to figure out. Anyone who can help me, I would be crazy grateful.

I was wondering if anyone was available to help me out. http://schoolwide.sgajewski.com/menu/ I am currently having an issue with IE 7. It seems to be working in every other browser but the second level of the navigation is offset lower in IE7. The spacing starts off 1 pixel two low and progressively the gap gets wider. Code: ul.vertical, ul.vertical li { margin:0; padding:0; list-style-type:none; font-size:100%; } ul.vertical { position:absolute; z-index:1000; cursor:default; width:180px; left:1em; top:4.05em; } ul.vertical li { position:relative; text-align:left; cursor:pointer; cursor:hand; width:180px; margin:-1px 0 0 0; padding-bottom:0px!important; padding-bottom:1px; float:left; clear:both; top:0; left:0; } ul.vertical ul { z-index:1020; cursor:default; position:absolute; width:197px; margin:0 0 0 179px; top:-100em; left:-1px; padding:1px 0 0 0; height:0px; overflow:hidden; } ul.vertical ul li { width:197px; } ul.vertical ul ul { margin: 0 0 0 179px; } @media Screen, Projection { ul.vertical li:hover > ul { top:0; height:auto; overflow:visible; } } ul.vertical a, ul.vertical a:visited { display:block; cursor:pointer; cursor:hand; background:url(images/bg.jpg); padding:5px 7px; font:normal normal bold 0.7em tahoma, verdana, sans-serif; color:#008000; text-decoration:none; letter-spacing:1px; } ul.vertical a:hover, ul.vertical a:focus, ul.vertical a.rollover, ul.vertical a.rollover:visited { background:url(images/bg_over.jpg); color:#806020; } ul.vertical .outtop {background:url(images/bg_over_top.jpg);} ul.vertical .outbg {background:url(images/bg_over_mid.jpg);} ul.vertical .outbot {background:url(images/bg_over_bot.jpg);} ul.vertical ul a, ul.vertical ul a:hover, ul.vertical ul a:visited, ul.vertical ul a:active ul.vertical ul a:hover, ul.vertical ul a:focus, ul.vertical ul a.rollover, ul.vertical ul a.rollover:visited { background-image:none; } @media screen, projection { * html ul.vertical li { display:inline; f\loat:left; background:#ffffff; } } * html ul.vertical li { position:static; } * html ul.vertical a { position:relative; } ul[class^="vertical"] ul { display:none; } ul[class^="vertical"] ul { displa\y:block; } Any help on why this is offset in IE7 would be great. Thanks in advance. hi, i was wondering if anyone knw any links to ultra super dooper cool websites for css navigations. I want to learn how to do ace ones. I have already googleed about, I found the sliding doors on ALA an stuff but i need that little bit more cool tutorials prefrably!! I did find one cool one athttp://www.bulkherbstore.com/ thanks tom. Hello. So I'm trying to make my html more semantic, so I'm trying to avoid divs and spans as much as possible. I'm trying to make an unordered list navigation, but it shows up really choppy in IE7. However, the moment I change it from <ul id="navigation"> to <div id="navigation">, it works perfectly. Just for semantics sake I'd like to see if I could keep the ul working. Here's the html code, it validates xhtml strict so you don't have to worry about that. Code: <!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"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <link href="css/global.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <title>Eagle Steel Buildings</title> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <img id="banner" src="images/global/banner.jpg" alt="Eagle Steel Building"/> <ul id="navigation"> <li><a href="" class="selected">Home</a></li> <li><a href="">About Us</a></li> <li><a href="">Our Work</a></li> <li><a href="">Free Quote</a></li> <li><a href="">Contact Us</a></li> </ul> <h1>Steel Building Construction</h1> <h2>Lorem Ipsum</h2> <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

I appreciate your time and effort! How is this navigation done on the top of the page? I looked at the CSS and all the javascript. I can't see how the drop down is created? I tried to replicate it and copied the background images. I can get the menu to show and rollovers work. Just the drop down won't work. http://jmadvertising.com/ Hello, I'm new to the forum and not very good with CSS yet. I'm slowly moving from tables to CSS. I set up a sample page to describe the problem I'm having but the forum won't allow me to post the URL here. I have a vertical CSS "LI" navigation section in the left hand sidebar of this web page and it works perfectly in every Mac browser I try it on (very latest Mac versions of Opera, Firefox, Safari, Chrome, Camino, Omniweb, etc.). There's a white, 1-pixel horizontal spacer/separator line between each link in the left sidebar which is supposed to be 220 pixels wide. It is 220 pixels wide on all the Mac browsers I try it on but for some reason, as soon as I try the web page in IE 7 or IE 8, the white horizontal 1-pixel divider line is shorter and ends up being only 195 pixels wide and throws the whole, nice and "even" look off. I don't understand where the 25 pixels are disappearing to in IE 7 and IE 8. Can anyone offer any insight as to what the fix may be or what I've done wrong? Below is the code I've used to create the navigation. Thanks so much. HTML Code: Code: <div id="navcontainer"> <ul id="navlist"> <li id="active"><a href="#" id="current">Home</A></li> <li><a href="#">On To Page 2</A></li> <li><a href="#">On To Page 3</A></li> <li><a href="#">On To Page 4</A></li> <li><a href="#">On To Page 5</A></li> </ul> </div> CSS Code: Code: #navlist { padding-left: 25px; margin-left: 0; width: 220px; } #navlist li { list-style: none; margin: 0; padding: 0.25em; border-top: 1px solid white; } #navlist li a { background: transparent url(../images/list_off.gif) left center no-repeat; padding-left: 15px; text-align: left; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; color: #277eb1; text-decoration: none; line-height: 30px; } #navcontainer ul li a:hover { background: transparent url(../images/list_on.gif) left center no-repeat; color: #da251c; } #navcontainer ul li a#current { background: transparent url(../images/list_active.gif) left center no-repeat; color: #999999; } I have a nice little vertical navigation block that I would like to use in multiple pages within the same website. I would like to use the nav block without repeating the code, but I can't figure out how to do it. I have put the code in navigation.htm. What do I do next? I want to get buttons like these with my CSS: http://members.cox.net/npalmi188/test.jpg how do I do this? (don't worry about the color codes) everytime I try to get something near it I get this gay gray extra bevel to my button, anybody know how to fix that? here's the code I was using that had the gray bevel: Code: input.button { font-family: MS Sans Serif; font-weight: none; font-size: 10px; color: #ffffff; background: #4C5844; } Hey, i made a header in with some space to get a navigation line over. So i put it in its place with css but when i zoom in or out it won't stay in the middle like evrything else, i tried evrything, display:block, margin:0px, position:absolute Hello, I have built a new navigation system for this website I'm rehabbing. Please note that the new navigation is only currently installed on the Newsroom section. I used this method (as was suggested by several people in this forum). I'm new to this method so now I need some help. The menus appear to be working but I would like some help with styling these so they look awesome. Here is a list of things I'd like to do (help with any or all of these would be appreciated): 1. I'd like to add a small border around the drop-down menu without adding a border to the img buttons I have. These images fit perfectly in the Navigation div and if a border is added around each one, the Resource button goes to a second line... very undesirable. 2. Is there a way to widen the drop-down menus? As you can see, most of the categories in each menu don't fit on one line. 3. I also is there a way to add a hover background color to the links? Thank you for your insight! Can anyone tell me how I can move the navigation bar I'm using below so that it left aligns with the table below it?
