CSS - Float Property And Nested Div Problem.
I'm having a problem with a float property placing a nested div outside of a parent box.
I've ran validation on both the XHTML/CSS. Both are coming up with no errors. Heres the DIV snippet: Code: <!-- Div snippet -->
<!-- start main -->
<div id="main">
<div class="mainbx">
<!-- top border -->
<!-- top left -->
<div class="tl">
<div class="c"></div>
</div>
<!-- top center -->
<div class="tc">
<div class="c"></div>
</div>
<!-- top right -->
<div class="tr">
<div class="c"></div>
</div>
<!-- top border -->
<!-- bdy1 -->
<div class="bd">
<!-- content area -->
<div id="leftcol">
<pThis column ( leftcol ID ) is correctly placed.</p>
</div>
<div id="rightcol">
<!-- Rounded corner dialog begins -->
<div class="dialog">
<!-- top border -->
<!-- top left -->
<div class="tl">
<div class="c"></div>
</div>
<!-- top center -->
<div class="tc">
<div class="c"></div>
</div>
<!-- top right -->
<div class="tr">
<div class="c"></div>
</div>
<!-- top border -->
<!-- bdy1 -->
<div class="bd">
<div class="c">
<div class="s">
<!-- content area -->
<h1>This is an inline dialog.</h1>
<!-- content area -->
</div>
</div>
</div>
<!-- bdy1 -->
<!-- botom border -->
<!-- bottom left -->
<div class="bl">
<div class="c"></div>
</div>
<!-- bottom center -->
<div class="bc">
<div class="c"></div>
</div>
<!-- bottom right -->
<div class="br">
<div class="c"></div>
</div>
<!-- botom border -->
</div>
</div>
<!-- content area -->
</div>
<!-- bdy1 -->
<!-- botom border -->
<!-- bottom left -->
<div class="bl">
<div class="c"></div>
</div>
<!-- bottom center -->
<div class="bc">
<div class="c"></div>
</div>
<!-- bottom right -->
<div class="br">
<div class="c"></div>
</div>
<!-- botom border -->
</div> <!-- end mainbx -->
<div id="footer">footer text</div>
</div> <!-- end main -->
If I place a float property in the left or right col ID, the whole ID is placed outside of the mainbx class. For instance: Code: /* example w float */
#rightcol {
float: right;
height: auto;
width: 500px;
padding-top: 0px;
padding-right: 35px;
margin-right: 0px;
}
This is how it looks: http://b.imagehost.org/0176/inc_plcmnt.jpg URL Click to view larger image! Now if I remove the float and add a position property: Code: #rightcol {
position:relative;
right:-320px;
top:-190px;
height: auto;
width: 500px;
padding-top: 0px;
padding-right: 25px;
margin-right: 0px;
}
This is how the rightcol is placed: http://d.imagehost.org/0643/cor_plcmnt.jpg URL Click to view larger image! It seems better, but if the black box is re-sized eventually it will end up outside mainbx class ( the purple box ). This leads me to belive that the problem has something to do with nesting. The weird thing is if I add lots of text to the black dialog box, mainbx re-sizes. Any ideas of how to fix this? Thanks for any help or ideas. Similar TutorialsHi, Here's my problem: css Code: Original - css Code <div style="width:69%; text-align:center; float:left;"> <div style="width:80%; min-height: 98px; border: black thin solid;"> BLEH </div> </div> <div style="width:30%; text-align:center; float:right;"> RIGHT </div> <div style="width:69%; text-align:center; float:left;"> The above code, should in theory make two "cells", one on the left and one on the right, side by side. Within the left one there should be another box, aligned centrally. This is fine in internet explorer, yet in Firefox & similar browsers it refuses to do this - I'm sure this is something very simple. Many thanks, Alan Thanks for all the continued help/support. . . Makes learning CSS so much easier! Link: www.vairlinecms.com Question: I set the html up like this on purpose to grasp the concept. <p> tags are block level containers. So each new set of <p> tags should equal start on new line. w/the float property holding a value of left, it floats all content to the left. Since each instance of float occurs in its own container...the two different <p> sets should not be affected. In short, the password: paragraph should be on a new line, not both on the same line. There should be no need to clear it because they are in their own containers - which are block level. Where is my logic/understanding of CSS flawed? HTML: Code: <div id="clientLoginBoxBody">
<form action=#">
<br />
<p class="user">Username:</p>
<p class="pass">Password:</p>
</form>
</div>
CSS: Code: #clientLoginBoxBody p.user, p.pass {
float: left;
margin: 0;
margin-left: 10px;
padding: 0;
font-size: 12px;
text-align: right;
}
Hi, I have faced a strange issue with the CSS overflow property while using nested DIVs.The DIV with class main has the DIV main-1a as its child which in turn has the DIV with class main-1a-child as its child. As the height of main is not fixed, so it is supposed to increase with main-1a and main-1a-child. But in Mozila FireFox, the height of main is not getting increased with the child DIVs. When the overflow property is set to hidden in main, then only the height of main gets increased with its childs. The issue is fine in IE6 regardless of the overflow property. Any help/explanation in this regard will be very helpful. <html> <head> <title>My Page</title> <style type="text/css"> .main { position:relative; width:800px; display:block; border:1px solid #000000; margin:auto; padding:10px 10px 10px 10px; background:#BABB99; height:100%; overflow:hidden; } .main-1a { width:780px; float:left; background:#FFFFFF; border:1px solid #FF0000; padding:10px 10px 10px 10px; } .main-1a-child { width:760px; float:left; border:1px solid #000000; padding:10px 10px 10px 10px; background:#BABB99; } </style> </head> <body> <div class="main"> <div class="main-1a"> <div class="main-1a-child"> <p>text of div1 a2</p> <p>snkjkjsd</p> <p>snkjkjsd</p> <p>snkjkjsd</p> </div> </div> </div> </body> </html> Uggghhh, I hate it when seemingly simple things turn out to be very difficult. Ok, so I'm tasked with creating a newsletter and I have an image that I'm floating and there are words around the image. At least there are when you look at it in a browser or any email client other than Office 2007. Office 2007 apparently (just learned this today) now uses the Word engine instead of Internet Explorer. Float (among many, many, MANY other things) is not supported. Is there an equivalent to float? To try and simulate float, I put the images and words in a table and did a reasonable job...when viewed by a browser!!! Honestly, I try to be OS agnostic and just use these things as tools to get my job done. But Microsoft has proved time and again that they have no qualms about completely changing the rules and not supporting previous stuff. I mean, we're talking basic html here!!! Ok, rant over. Anybody have any suggestions on how to simulate a float? Thanks in advance. Well, I'm trying to make a comments-page for a certain thing, and I can't get the image to stop going over the bottom of the div, without using the min-height property. Can someone help?

I can't figure out how to clear the float for the columns with the text column 1 and 2. If the other columns dont have a lot of text then the footer defaults to just under the image so where that 1+2 start. Any ideas plase? Code: <div id="container">

Hey guys...I'm having a problem with the clear property in firefox adding a large space between a float element and the element that is being cleared. The code is below: HTML Code: Code: <body>
<div id="header">
<div id="topAd">
Top ad - Premium Placement
</div>
<div id="logobox">
<div id="sitestats">
Stat 1: stat<br />
Stat 2: stat<br />
stat 3: stat
</div>
<img src="images/logo.gif" alt="Logo Image"/>
<div id="topnav">
this is the top navigation
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
and the CSS Code: Code: body,form,ul,li {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
font-size: 9pt;
font-family: helvitica,arial;
color: #333;
}
#header {
display: block;
border: 1px solid orange;
}
#topAd {
display: block;
background-color: #333;
color: #FFF;
text-align: center;
}
#logobox {
display: block;
vertical-align: bottom;
border: 1px solid green;
height: auto;
}
#sitestats {
float: right;
font-size: 8.5pt;
border: 1px solid yellow;
height: auto;
}
#topnav {
clear: both;
background-color: #333;
color: #FFF;
text-align: right;
padding-right: 0.2em;
}
Now this code works fine in IE, but in Firefox, the cleared element seems to get a very large space between the float and the cleared element. Any help would be appreciated. I am Having a problem with IE6 and DIV's which use blocks to highlight links. The problem is I want to have different colour links. It seems to work OK in FF but not IE 6. Code:
.mainmenu a:link { color: #fff; font-size: 11px; font-weight: 600; text-decoration: none; background-color: #a62a2a; background-position: 180px 0; text-align: left; text-indent: 3px; vertical-align: middle; width: 180px; height: 24px; border-bottom: 1px solid #e8aaaa; display: block; }
.mainmenu a:visited { color: #fff; font-size: 11px; font-weight: 600; background-color: #a62a2a; background-position: 180px 0; text-decoration: none; text-align: left; text-indent: 3px; vertical-align: middle; width: 180px; height: 24px; border-bottom: 1px solid #e8aaaa; display: block; }

Hope the above scripts can be viewed easily. I just started using css, and for some reason I can't get this simple template to function in Mozilla Firefox. I don't know how nested divs behave, but it's really frustrating. The problem is that i have two main divs within one encompassing div. The encompassing div is supposed to expand in height based upon the height and/or position of the nested two divs, but it only expands based one of these nested divs. These nested divs have divs inside them too. This only happened in mozilla firefox. In IE it works. I'm not using floats or anything. I don't have it up on a site, but if necessary I'll post a pic of the rendering. Thanks in advance. Thanks for taking the time to read my question. I've been searching the web on how to fix this but haven't got anything yet. In IE, my nested div (class="BioContent") stays within the parent container (id="BioBox"), but does not in FF. Right now I am using width: 100%; I've tried defining the width in pixels, but if I get it to work in FF, then it isn't wide enough in IE. Any ideas? Thanks for your help, Brad HTML: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"

i have nested tables but table inside is inheriting properties from table outside. i have written classes for both tables in css and i dnt want inside table to inherit. what can i do? Hi I've got a bit of a problem. I am making a website and what I want to do is create links with block background showing an image, which changes to just pink on a mouse over. what I did was make a div, give it classname menu_items and in that div put different hyperlinks. my code: Code: /* Menu picture caption */
.menu_items a { display: block; color: #FFF; background-color: #FF0066; text-decoration: none; padding: 5px; position: absolute; }
#menu_0910_dg000 { background-image: url('img/0910_dg000.jpg'); height: 90px; width: 140px; top: 100px; left: 0px; font-size: 12pt; }
#menu_0910_dg000:hover { background-image: none; color: #FFF; }
#menu_0910_dg601 { background-image: url('img/0910_dg601.jpg'); height: 90px; width: 140px; top: 100px; left: 150px; font-size: 12pt; }
#menu_0910_dg601:hover { background-image: none; color: #FFF; }
#menu_0910_dg200 { background-image: url('img/0910_dg200.jpg'); height: 90px; width: 140px; top: 100px; left: 300px; font-size: 12pt; }
#menu_0910_dg200:hover { background-image: none; color: #FFF; }
#menu_0910_elderly { background-image: url('img/0910_elderly.jpg'); height: 90px; width: 440px; top: 0px; left: 0px; font-size: 18pt; }
#menu_0910_elderly:hover { background-image: none; color: #FFF; }
#menu_0910_demos { background-image: url('img/0910_demos.jpg'); height: 90px; width: 890px; top: 200px; left: 0px; font-size: 20pt; }
#menu_0910_demos:hover { background-image: none; color: #FFF; }
Code: <div class="menu_items"> <a id="menu_0910_dg000" href="0910_elderly.html">Assignment: DG000 Introducing Competency-Centred Learning </a> <a id="menu_0910_dg601" href="0910_elderly.html">Assignment: DG601 Digital Video</a> <a id="menu_0910_dg200" href="0910_elderly.html">Assignment: DG200 Creative Programming for Designers</a> <a id="menu_0910_elderly" href="0910_elderly.html">Project: Elderly Interacting with the Digi-world</a> <a id="menu_0910_demos" href="0910_elderly.html">External: Demos Bar Committee</a> </div> You can see that I first used the nested selector .menu_items a, but this doesn't work with hover, so .menu_items a:hover doesn't work. Why not and how to fix?:S gr Bram I have set up a couple vertical boxes and filled them with 'column' boxes all nested within the parent vertical boxes. My problem is when, say, box #3 from the left has more content than the furthest left box, instead of stretching the parent to accommodate the content and push down the other parent horizontal box below, the content just flows behind the lower horizontal box. If the content in the furthest left box is the longest, this problem doesnt occur. The parent box is stretched to fit.

This is the html code: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>test</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <link href="structure-yellow.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> </head> <body> <div id="main"> <div id="headimage">test</div> <div id="greybar">test</div> </div> </center> </body> </html> And the attached css file is: Code:
div#main {
border: solid #000000 1px;
padding: 3px;
width: 780px;
margin: 0 auto 0 auto;
}
#headimage {
vertical-align: middle;
height: 100px;
background: #FFFF00;
}
#greybar {
position: relative;
top: 3px;
background: #CCCCCC;
}
Since the headimage and the greybar are nested within the main div, the 3px padding of the "main" div should be respected, however it's not. What I think is happenning is that the 3px padding of the main div is respected for the expected greybar position, and it is not updated after setting the "#greybar" position property on the CSS file. How can I solve this problem? I know that I could achieve the same effect adding a 3px white bottom border on the "#headimage" class, but I'm looking for more elegant solution based on block positioning. Any ideas? Thanks, Caste Okay, I have a page on which I want a banner div with a links div underneath it, a left menu bar div, and a content div. I've put them all in a container div. However, on some pages the menu bar is longer than the content and on others the content is longer than the menu bar. I want the menu bar and the content bar to always be equal heights but adjust to the length of content. Here's the gist of the code: Code:
#container {
text-align: left;
background:#000064;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
width: 650;
height:100%;
border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;
}
#banner {
background: #fff;
width: 650;
}
#piclinks {
background: rgb(00,00,64);
padding-top: 10px;
padding-bottom: 5px;
width: 650;
}
#links {
position: absolute;
padding-left: 5px;
padding-top: 10px;
padding-bottom: 10px;
border-right: 1px dotted #fff;
width: 140px;
font-family: verdana, arial, georgia, sans-serif;
color: #fff;
font-size: 8pt;
background: rgb(00,00,64);
}
#content {
position: relative;
float: right;
width: 500;
font-family: verdana, arial, georgia, sans-serif;
font-size: 8pt;
color: #fff;
padding: 5px;
}
I've looked at a few resources, including the 'PIE' site, but haven't been able to quite figure it out. Thanks So does anyone use div tags only and no tables at all? Not even for tabular data? My website (OPM) uses css for all the layout. Sometimes, when I load a new page within the website, the entire webpage appears nested within one of the layers. When I reload the page, this effect disappears right away or after a few reloads. It appears about 10% of the time and occurs in several different browsers (i.e. Firefox, IE). Nested webpage error URL Normal page URL I don't know why this is happening, especially since it's only part of time. Please help! Thank you, Misha subject isn't too good anyhow.. i have 4 cells __ __ |1 | |2 | --- --- __ __ |3| |4 | --- --- 2 and 4 are said to float right, such that 1 and 3 define the height of the page.. but.. when the contents of 2 go LONGER than the contents of 1, number 4 doesn't float right properly.. instead this happens __ __ |1 | |2 | --- | | --- | | |4| --- --- __ |3| --- do you see that? 4 tries to float right, but since it's called underneath 1, and 2 is extended, floating right relative to the page doesn't make it ACTUALLY float right any thoughts that will render this properly? (namely that cells 1 and 3 will inherit the height of 2 and 4 somehow?) I have the following CSS styles: Code:
#content p { font-size: 24px; }
.smalltext p { font-size: 12px; }
Then, I create a #content div in my HTML with three paragraphs in it. I want the middle paragraph to have the .smalltext class, like this: http://www.toprival.com/temp/css_question.gif With the CSS the way I have it, the font size (12px) of the .smalltext paragraph is ignored. But if I change the CSS so both selectors are IDs, or so both are classes (and update the HTML accordintly), it works. Why is that? |
