CSS - Dreamweaver Spry Help
Hi all! I've been teaching myself web-design in my spare time for a while, and I've got most of the basics down (I think!). I have a problem. I was using Dreamweaver cs3 and I put a vertical spry menu into my page - All was fine. Cue update to cs5. No I know that this shouldn't have effected anything, but something has changed, and now my sub menus all appear UNDER the rest of the elements on the page. I haven't really used z-index much before. I have tinkered with it a little, but it didn't seem to change anything. I am now stumped. This problem seems to occur across all browsers. Can anyone help?
Similar TutorialsHi, I have created a accordion menu using a spry widget built into Dreamweaver CS3. However I want to amend this so that the menu is collapsed until the user clicks on a category. Do I have to amend the CSS or the javascript to make it collapsed to begin with? Any help would be appericated. Thanks Gary Hello, On the home page of this site: aia.academicimaging.com, the drop down menu for Needs Assessment doesn't appear correctly when it tries to run across the page rather than down like it does in Firefox. This is a Spry menu I made with Dreamweaver CS3. Thanks in advance for any suggestions. Mark Hi all, I'm a newbie on spry coding and was hoping for some help. I tried to search the forum for a similar probem, but couldn't find one. Here's the basic problem: I have a spry horizontal menu bar and my main menu items are displaying just fine when the browser screen is maximized. However, when I make the browser screen smaller on the screen, the last menu item gets pushed down to a second line. Here's what I mean: With maximized browser screen: [Item 1][Item 2][Item 3][Item 4][Item 5] With smaller browser screen: [Item 1][Item 2][Item 3][Item 4] [Item 5] Is there any way that I can use CSS, or any other method you might know, to force the items to stay on the same line, regardless of the screen size? Thanks so much for any info! The submenus are not lining up properly in Firefox or Safari but it looks right in IE. If I fix how it looks in Firefox and Safari, it will not look right in IE. Anyone know how to solve this? Here is the link: link to problem I've been working on this issue for nearly 20 hours ... about 10 hours ago I had things working only to realize I hadn't committed my code, and now I have no idea how to get back to where I was (as my process was just hitting and missing). I'm working on installing a vertical spry dropdown menu at: www.leonianj.gov using the drupal framework. You can see by visiting the site that the drop-down menus are positioned underneath the remaining content on the page (not flash). I've manipulated pretty much all z-index values (in as many combinations as I could figure). Of course the menu is fine in FF 2+ and Safari 2+ If anyone out there could point me in the right direction it would be GREATLY appreciated! Regards, Justin I am having the same problem as a few other posters regarding Spry menu bars. I was wondering if someone here could help us. The link is The problem link Thanks The spry tabs works fine if the page is directly accessed, however, when the page is accessed through the pop-up window (image below) the spry tabs are not click-able and all the contents are displayed all at once.

I'm using the Spry tabbed panels widget on a website. I would like to center align the horizontal tabs. The default setting is left align. And I'm able to right align it. Here is part of the css code: .TabbedPanels { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; float: left; clear: none; width: 100%; } .TabbedPanelsTabGroup { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; } .TabbedPanelsTab { position: relative; top: 1px; float: left; padding: 2px 6px 6px 6px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px; list-style: none; border-left: solid 1px #999; border-bottom: solid 1px #CCC; border-top: solid 1px #CCC; border-right: solid 1px #999; -moz-user-select: none; -khtml-user-select: none; cursor: pointer; background-image: url(../sprylight.png); color: #333333; I've tried changing the "padding" under the ".TabbedPanelsTabGroup" rule to "auto". This causes the tabs to kind of be centered, but not exactly. Also, one of the tabs breaks apart from the row and spills over to the next line. Any help would be very much appreciated. Need guidance on how to set up CSS. Thanks Hi everyone. I am completely new to web design. I am using Dreamweaver 8 pro. I have found out that I like the background image feature to layers very much. It is very much better than tables. Unfortunately, I can't find a way to have layers be centered in reference to the browser (The way I can align tables). Is there any way to do this? Please help. Thanks, Newbie hi everyone, i designed my first site with dremaweaver 3 but had problems with browser compatability. people have been telling me i should use css now as it's better so which version of dreamweaver should i be using now? thank you Hey, im sorry if this has allrdy been covered I have created a website in dream weaver cs3, i upload it everything works bar back ground images in tables. The url is gepro.oxyhost.com all help greatly appreciated thx guys Hi everyone, I am having a very difficult problem using Dreamweaver and I would be very grateful for any advice given. I recently created a simple website using layers and when I previewed it, it looked great and it had no reported browser errors. I had several people view it and only one of my friends had trouble seeing it. He said that the layers were out of position and sometimes overlaped. We both were using Explorer 6.0. The only difference between our computers is that he has a 21" monitor while I have a 17". Would that effect the web page design? Why are the layers not positioning correctly? If anyone needs to view the website it can be seen at http://sky.prohosting.com/lovecare Please help me! Thanks, Steve Well this isn't too much of a problem basically my form displays one way in dreamweaver and another when I preview the site any idea why its pretty annoying. heres how it looks in dreamweaver and heres it in a browser I have all pages that follow a CSS Rule. These are Dev Boxes that I created for my site. One of the text on one of the pages is 1700 pixels height the others are only 700. When I created a rule for all pages but when I added the text on the one with 1700 pixels it stretched out all the boxes on all other pages as well. I want to break that one from the others so that it does not format all my pages like that one. How do I do it. I do I keep the CSS code style but on that one in particular change the rule to only allow that one to be 1700 pixels long. Basically I don't want to have to recode the CSS page but I want that particular code to be just for that one page and keep the others with the 700 pixels height. Please give me a simple explanation on how to break the rule on that page so that I can manually adjust it for that one page. thanks Hi there, Wondering if you can help me ... I have a site that was coded for me and when i open up the index.html pages in code and design view in Dreamweaver - the items in the sidebar (coded with css and using the ul and li tags) don't show up .... allowing me to only edit the text in code view and not design view. When previewing it in browser it is fine. I am a visual person so would really like to be able to see the text/images and elements in design view. perhaps small code is missing? or settings in dreamweaver... i have tried everything and can;t find Please help! Thanks Code: <div id="sidebar" class='sidebar-home'>

Hi, I'm trying to create a menu bar using CSS (I'm not sure if this is the best way to do it. Maybe I should be using frames for this menu bar so I'm not constantly copying and pasting code from page to page?) Anyway, my problem is that everything appears fine when I view the page in the browser using F12 (this creates a temporary file). But when I try to view index.htm by double clicking on it, the CSS style hasn't been applied to the text at all. I have spent hours on this to no avail. Can someone please please help? thanks, Jean Hi, I have been working on a project for a friend and all was working well in IE. I tested the site in Netscape and Opera and found that the CSS positioning i was using (DIVs) caused inconsistent layout accross the browsers. I used absolute positioning instead of relative, which seemed to solve all my problems.....not so. Now, for some reason, the pop-up menu appears behind the main content layer. I am quite new to using CSS for layout so forgive me if the answer to my problem is simple. Google (my usual saviour) proved to be of little help. Any help would be welcome, thanks. Dunc I'm sure all of you have stumbled onto this at some point if you use Macromedia Dreamweaver. You're working on a CSS-driven layout and it looks perfect in multiple web browsers, but in the actual Dreamweaver design edit mode the page appears garbled and elements are out of place or you can't even see them. While it's not really a problem for you to update and work with the site, it would certainly be difficult for someone not familiar with it to change content and make updates. Does anyone know of a plug-in that would resolve this problem? Or perhaps does someone know what attributes or elements most often cause the problem in Dreamweaver? Hello I am a Novice in web design that is trying to make his way. I am build a website for my company and trying to make it compatible with many devices. I have chosen to Use html and css. This is my issue. I have a side bar menu (nav) and I have a div (menuebar) set to 125 by 500px css property's: Height, width, margin top, margin bottom, float:left Then i have another div inside that one use for my LINK or Button. div (menulink) set to 110 x 28px css property's: Height, width,Padding : Left5px, Right 5px top 2px and bottom 2px , Font Ariel. I want this div (menulink) to highlight on a mouse over or hover the entire div like this website has there colorful menu bar. w w w DOT entheosweb DOT com/dreamweaver/default.asp the bar i am talking about starts with teal, green... ect If you notice you can select the text with in that rollover. so when I use a rollover i cant see any option to do that. Now I have learn how to do a " a hover" css with text links but it dose not hightlight the whole div container. I have tried a behavior on the div tag and that works but dose not disappear on mouse out. I have tried many combinations of multiple behaviors and single combinations with all the option with in them. No such luck.... I will thank any one advance who can help me with this. Ps i don't want to use rollovers because of how big the web site is even with PS actions set up to speed up the process of editing each roll over img. |
