CSS - Shift To The Right When Scroll Bar Is Active
Some of my pages are long enough to cause the primary vertical scroll bar to become active but most of the pages are short enough so that it stays hidden. Because of this the entire content automatically shifts to the left to accommodate the width of the scroll bar. I don't like that. I would like it to stay in the same spot no matter what. (centered) my wrapper has margin: auto, 0px; so that the page stays centered when the window size changes.
Is there a way to just bump the page to the right only when the scroll bar is active? (via my external css) Thanks a bunch. (if there is a thread about this already please feel free to just post the link to it) Also, I am going to add this head-banging dude because its just so flippin stupid. Similar TutorialsHey everyone, I am doing some stuff to my site, and I noticed that when someone clicks a link, the text shifts sligtly to the left. I thought it would be the active border, but I am not sure. It is a small bug, but it is kind of annoying me. Here is my link code. Code: #main a:link { color: #41619a; padding: 0; } #main a:visited { color: #41619b; } #main a:hover { text-decoration: underline; } #main a:active { border: 0; } Here is one of the pages where it happens. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Whats' wrong with this? a:active doesn't seem to work at all: Code: <style type="text/css"> #navcontainer { margin: 5px 0 0 5px; padding: 0; height: 20px; } #navcontainer ul { border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style-type: none; text-align: center; } #navcontainer ul li { display: block; float: left; text-align: center; padding: 0; margin: 0; } #navcontainer ul li a { background: #000000; width: 80px; height: 18px; border-top: none; border-left: 1px solid #9B9B9B; border-bottom: none; border-right: none; padding: 0; margin: 0 0 5px 0; font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #26DC18; font-weight:bold; text-decoration: none; display: block; text-align: center; } #navcontainer ul li a:hover { color: #930; background: #f5d7b4; } #navcontainer ul li a:active { background: #000000; color: #fff0000; } </style> HTML [CODE<div id="navcontainer"> <ul id="navlist"> <li><a href="index.php">Home</a></li> <li><a href="inventory.php">Item two</a></li> <li><a href="#">Item three</a></li> <li><a href="#">Item four</a></li> <li><a href="#">Item five</a></li> </ul> </div> [/CODE] P.S. I just include this menu in a PHP page. We'll that will work iff you put # on the target page but that must not be. Thanks! The Divs holding the "In Stock" banners (absolutely positioned) on this page seem to shift to the right (the first box is missing a banner, and there is an extra banner off the page. Any idea why? Please view at woodflooringvalue.com and click on any of the product link buttons under the "in stock" heading. Thanks. The index page of my site shifts to the far left in IE. The background does not move (stays in center) but the rest of the page shifts far left. It only happens on the index page all others are fine. I would link to it but I am new and cannot post links...any suggestions? Thanks. I've noticed when I am replacing my filler text with text that is not as long, Firefox is shifting my layout over to the right. For instance look at a look of filler text: http://www.jaycutler.com/Eumyotheria/the_beast/favorites.html Now for the replacing text: http://www.jaycutler.com/Eumyotheria/the_beast/contest_history.html You will notice if you use the sidebar (or the top nav) the shift occurs when you visit a page with a lot of content. In IE it is fine, but Firefox doesn't like. Not sure why as I use replaced text. Any ideas? The stylesheet is located here if needed: http://www.jaycutler.com/Eumyotheria/css/stylesheet.css Thanks for your time and any help that you can pass on. Brian Hello, i have a DIV in which i have put a javascript for my top advertisement banner. This banner is one of those that when the user moves their mouse over it, it expands.. is there anyway i can make it so when the banner inside the div expands, the DIV height expands accordingly to the height of the banner? and when it collpases, the div will shift back to original height? thanks I am having a problem unique to IE 8. The right most nav button jumps down a bunch of pixels. This does not seem to be happening in any other browsers, except IE 8. Some code involving said elements: Code: #nav { right: 10px; top: 45px; position: absolute; background-color: black; height: 50px; width: 640px; } ul { text-overflow: clip; display: inline; border-bottom: 25px solid black; } li { list-style-type: none; float: left; margin-top:25px; } #aboutButton { display: block; height: 20px; width: 93px; background-image: url(images/nav/about_button2.gif); margin-left: 40px; clear: both; } #aboutButton:hover { display: block; background-position: 0px 20px; height: 20px; width: 93px; background-image: url(images/nav/about_button2.gif); clear: both; } message me for a link to the site if you would like to see it in action. any help is appreciated. thanks! I am editing a CSS layout I have found. Basically, I want a fixed header. The original layout had the fixed header (AP Div) take up 100% width with right positioning of 16px to allow for the scrollbar, but this was making it awkward for me to centre another div within the Header/AP Div, so I have edited my layout like this: 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" xml:lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <title></title> <style type="text/css" media="screen"> * { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; } #printhead { display:none; } html { height:100%; max-height:100%; padding:0; margin:0; border:0; background:#fff; font-size:80%; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; /* hide overflow:hidden from IE5/Mac */ /* \*/ overflow: hidden;/* */ } body { height:100%; max-height:100%; overflow:hidden; padding:0; margin:0; border:0; background-color: #EAEBEB; } #content { display:block; height:100%; max-height:100%; overflow:auto; position:relative; z-index:3; word-wrap:break-word; } #info { width: 750px; margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; background-color: #666666; padding-right: 25px; padding-left: 25px; } #head { position:absolute; width:800px; height:137px; z-index:5; border-top-style: none; border: none; background-color: #FFFFFF; left: -400px; margin-left: 50%; } .top-spacer { display:block; height:137px; } .btm-spacer { display:block; height:30px; background-color: #FFFFFF; width: 800px; margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; } </style> <style type="text/css" media="print"> html { padding:0; margin:0; border:0; background:#fff; font-size:10pt; font-family: arial, sans-serif; min-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 1px; } body { padding:0; margin:0; border:0; } #content { display:block; position:relative; z-index:3; word-wrap:break-word; } #head { display:none; border-top-style: none; border-right-style: none; border-bottom-style: none; border-left-style: none; } #printhead { height:100px; background:#fff; font-size:24pt; color:#000; border-bottom:1px solid #000; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="head"></div> <div id="content"> <div class="top-spacer"></div> <div id="info"> <p>Type goes here and here Type goes here and here Type goes here and here Type goes here and here Type goes here and here Type goes here and here </p> <p> </p> </div> <div class="btm-spacer"></div> </div> </body> </html> Basically, I have cheated to centre the AP Div, but now in Firefox, when there is overflow, the Div underneath the header moves over to accommodate the scrollbar, but the header doesn't. Can anyone suggest a workaround for this? Thanks. I have a few lines of text inside a nested div. Everything is fine if I leave it at that but as soon as I add some more, the whole page (wrapper) get shifted left by 9 pixels. It causes a 'jump' hen navigating between this page and the rest of the site. All of these pages are quite simple and were created from the same index page. HTML Code: <div id="wrap"> <div id="content_awards"> <div id="subcontent_awards"> <div class="award_col"> <h3>Subtitle 1</h3> Winner<br /><br /> <h3>Subtitle 2</h3> Winner<br /><br /> <h3>Subtitle 3</h3> Commended<br /><br /> <!-- <h3>Subtitle 4</h3> Commended<br /><br /> --> </div> <br style="clear:both;" /> </div> <br style="clear:both;" /> </div> <br style="clear:both;" /> </div> CSS Code: body { padding:2px 0 0 0; margin:0; text-align:center; font-size:14px; background-color:#FFFFFF; } #wrap { margin:0 auto; width:760px; padding:0; text-align:center; } #content_awards { margin:0 auto; padding:20px 0 0 0; width:754px; color:#FFFFFF; text-align:left; background-color:#31578E; clear:both; } #subcontent_awards { margin:0 auto; padding:0 10px 10px 10px; width:734px; background-image:url('images/bg_awards_shadows.jpg'); background-repeat:no-repeat; background-color:#31578E; clear:both; } div.award_col { float:left; margin:0 0 0 1px; padding:0 10px 0 20px; width:152px; line-height:130%; font-size:12px; } Thanks, Hello CSS gurus, When I add an italic font style to my web page, it causes a vertical shift in IE6. Everything is fine in Firefox. Can anyone tell me what is happening with this? Vertical Shifted with Italics: http://www.innovations-online.com/t...ch_news_it.html No Italics is Fine: http://www.innovations-online.com/t.../tech_news.html The same problem occurs with oblique. Thanks in advance! Darin That title is probably a little confusing but it is what's happening. I have an inline list (<li>) that will shift to the right when I hover over links that have been visited. The links that have never been visited do not cause this problem. It's very strange and I'm not sure what's up. The page... http://www.vaska.com/a/ The css... http://www.vaska.com/a/css/c.css To get the menu to appear, hover over the "menu/options" and it will appear. I know for a fact that these issues are not becaused by the javascript in this file...somehow it's a CSS issue. I'm having the problem in Safari and Firefox...I'm not sure about IE/PC and such, but I'm betting the problem is there as well. Thanks for any help...v Hi all, I'm a CSS newbie and I need your help, pleeease! I tried to make a rollover graphic menu today. And of course I got completely stuck with this code: Code: /* Header */ #header { position: absolute; background: url(images/header.jpg) no-repeat; width: 830px; } #menu, #menu li a:hover, #menu li.current a { background: url(images/link_menu.jpg) no-repeat; } #menu { margin: 115px 0px 0px 29px ; width: 600px ; height: 75px ; list-style-type: none; } #menu li { float: left; margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px; width: 120px; height: 75px; } #menu li#menu-contact { margin: 0; } #menu li a { display: block; padding: 75px 0px 0px 0px; height: 75px; overflow: hidden; } html>body #menu li a { height: 0; } #menu li#menu-home a:hover, #menu li#menu-home.current a { background-position: 0px -75px 120px 29px; } #menu li#menu-about a:hover, #menu li#menu-about.current a { background-position: -120px -75px; } #menu li#menu-gallery a:hover, #menu li#menu-gallery.current a { background-position: -240px -75px; } #menu li#menu-foto-shop a:hover, #menu li#menu-foto-shop.current a { background-position: -360px -75px; } #menu li#menu-contact a:hover, #menu li#menu-contact.current a { background-position: -480px -75px; } The rollover works, but somehow it shifts to the right Like this: URL What am I doing wrong? Why does it shift? Thanks in advance... Hi all, I have written a page with jsp and ajax to dynamically load page contents. I also added a hidden "processing.." message image with the following code: Code: <img src="<%=IMAGE_BASE_URL%>/processing-img.gif" id="processing" style="display:none;z-index:2;position:relative;top:250;right:-250"> this img tag was placed right after the <body> tag. When the user clicks on a link, I turned this css property to display:block so that it shows in the middle of the page. But strangely, when it is showing the processing message image, the entire page content after the <img> tag was shifted down a bit and showing an empty row! Does anybody know what's wrong with it? I've tried to change the display to inline using javascript but it still won't help...

If anyone can help that would be really appreciated! Thanks very much RF I've defined three classes in this page but now I can't scroll down to the end of the page. the vertical scroll bars are missing. why is that? http://tinyurl.com/5llwfl I'm having some problems with this page in particular. Try clicking on one of the Left or Right white image arrows below the main picture. This only occurs in Firefox 2.x. Once you click the link, the content area below "Starting from $278.497" should shift roughly 5 pixels down. I thought it may be related to the dotted link outline that surrounds the image, but that was not the case. I applied styles to get rid of that and there was no changes. I also thought it may be related to a position:relative; bug which this site has been notorious for. I tried making certain divs in that area position:relative to no avail. So to test further I tried an overall #content *{position:relative;} fix which could not fix the position shift, either. I'm not sure what else it could be. And while I do have access to the build of this app, I have not been able to reproduce the issue by downloading all HTML, CSS, and image files locally. I am a photographer for a website and I know very little about anything other than basic html. With the website lady gone on a trip around the world for a year, I ended up being the person to attempt to modify our side menu to show an additional column of subcategories. I tinkered around with the code we had and I managed to get this to work in Firefox, however in IE7 the contents of the menu shift down a few pixels when you hover over a category. To view my problem, go to scannerparts.biz I've messed around with this for a few days and everything has become a big confusing mess so I have no choice but give in and ask for help. I thank anyone in advance for any assistance you can offer. -Emerson Here is the code: hover.css Code: <!-- body { behavior: url(/images/csshover2.htc); } div#categorynav ul {margin: 0px; padding: 0px;} .submenu { position: relative;

I have accomplished changing the font color but have been unable to change the background color of the cell. See the code below.... Any help is greatly appreciated! By the way, the active link has to be used as a div. I am using a specialized menu with specific requirements :S The background command below only colors the background of the text but in the OVER css, it colors the background of the CELL.... Code: #dm_t-active_link { font-weight: 900; color: gold; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; padding: 0px; background-color: #440000; width:125px; border : 0px solid black; } .dm_t-0_over { font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; padding: 4px; color: #BC8D31; background-color: #550000; border : 1px solid black; height: 16px; cursor: hand; } Hi, I have created my website but I'm having problems with the a:active link in my CSS. When I go to my site I would like the currently viewed pages link to be blanked out and unclickable, (until I view a different page.) I have tried to change the a:active part of my CSS but to no avail. The only part that seems to work in the CSS is the a:hover part, all the others seem to be ignored. Still relating to the question above, I have made the links width 229px. This seems to display fine with IE6, however NS7 compresses the layers background to the size of the text. How do I avoid this? I have tried adding an absolute position style to the layer in CSS, but I then lose the 'fluidity' of the website when the browser is resized. I have pasted my CSS below: #waita, #waitb { text-decoration:none; color:#FFFFC0; border-style:solid; border-color: #000000; border-width:2px; background-color:#000000; layer-background-color:#000000; font:bold; font-weight:bold; font-family:arial; font-size:14px; height:22px; width:230px; z-index: 100; margin: 5; } .image { border-width: 2; border-color: #000000; border-style: solid; margin: 10; } .class1 a:link { text-decoration:none; color:#000000; border-style:solid; border-color: #000000; border-width:2px; background-color:#FFFFC0; layer-background-color:#FFFFC0; font:none; font-weight:none; font-family:arial; font-size:14px; line-height:18px; width: 229px; z-index: 20; margin: 5; } .class1 a:active { text-decoration:none; color:#000000; border-style:solid; border-color: #000000; border-width:2px; background-color:#FFFFC0; layer-background-color:#FFFFC0; font:none; font-weight:none; font-family:arial; font-size:14px; line-height:18px; width: 229px; z-index: 20; margin: 5; } .class1 a:visited { text-decoration:none; color:#000000; border-style:solid; border-color: #000000; border-width:2px; background-color:#FFFFC0; layer-background-color:#FFFFC0; font:none; font-weight:none; font-family:arial; font-size:14px; line-height:18px; width: 229px; z-index: 20; margin: 5; } .class1 a:hover { text-decoration:none; color:#FFFFC0; border-style:solid; border-color: #000000; border-width:2px; background-color:#000000; layer-background-color:#000000; font:bold; font-weight:bold; font-family:arial; font-size:14px; line-height:18px; width: 229px; z-index: 20; margin: 5; } I have tried to change the two line in the a:active part: {background-color:#FFFFC0; layer-background-color:#FFFFC0;} but it seems to do nothing.
