CSS - Misplaced Div - Navigation Column In Ie6
I have a site where the layout works find in IE8 and Firefox, but in IE6 the left navigation pan is shifted below the content instead of inline with it. I've tried various combinations of float, position, margin and padding, but to no avail. I know it's a common problem, but I haven't been able to find a solution yet. If someone could help me discover and fix the issue it'd be most appreciated!

Similar Tutorials<http://touristguides.org.uk/advsearch> Had a problem with this page which is now cured (unless the window is ridiculously narrow), but something else is happening. The page has: * header across the top * sidebar floated left * main content area to its right * footer across the bottom * All four have rounded corners, done as nested divs Sometimes, just sometimes, the content of the footer appears overlaid on the main content area, not far below the top. When it does, as you scroll down, you find three of the footer div's rounded corners at different points vertically: first the bottom right one, then the bottom left, then the top right; and a bit further down is the rest of the footer's background, with its rounded top left corner, across the content area. Right at the very bottom is the link to the BrowseHappy site that only appears for the benefit of IE users. :-) That's in the right place, except that the graphic link that should be below it isn't there - I guess it's hidden behind the footer background further up. Everything is in its correct position horizontally. As soon as you roll the mouse over any link in the footer's content (which, remember, is near the top of the page), or over the BrowseHappy text link at the bottom, everything pops into place as it should be, including the graphic BrowseHappy link. And this only happens sometimes - you can happily press F5 any number of times and it'll be fine, then once more and it'll go wrong. It appears not to be affected by window width, unlike my previous problem. And it doesn't happen on any other page, although they all have the same basic structure. However... On another page, which unfortunately you can only see by logging in, the top part of the main content's text sometimes (again, only sometimes) appears to the left, overlaid on the sidebar, until you roll over a link in the sidebar, when it pops into place. This may or may not be related! I've tried every magic bullet I can think of, trawled any number of sites about IE CSS bugs, but can't find a solution. It looks a bit like the 'Peekaboo' bug <http://www.positioniseverything.net/explorer/peekaboo.html>, but it isn't the same because nothing actually vanishes, and once you've put it right by rolling over a link you can't make it go wrong again without reloading the page. Any suggestions, or pointers to yet another IE/CSS site that might have the solution, gratefully received! 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! Hi all, I've tried searching around for this issue, but I've not found any help so far and it's driving me nuts. I hope someone here can advise. This is an abridged version of the site's code for example: Code: <style type="text/css">

I've placed the Country Title in an H2 tag, then beneath that, each anchor is enclosed in a DIV, and is set as a left-floated block. Then I placed a spacer DIV (clear: both) to create a new line, then repeated with H2 and links. This all works fine in Firefox, IE7 and Opera, but of course IE6 is being a pig as usual. The spacer DIV is pushed to sit alongside the bottom of the left column, and I can't figure out how to (or if I can) stop this. I can't add in links properly, so I hope this is acceptable under the rules -- The site in question is: www.swalings .com/swalings/index4.asp and here's a screenshot of IE6 behaviour: www.swalings .com/images/swalings-ie6-troubleshoot.jpg Hopefully that's enough information to go on, please let me know if there's something I missed out. Thanks a lot! Rob Hi I am trying to make a table to display some stuff within a fix sized window. I want to have 5 columns of fixed width and one column that spans the rest of the remaining space. The Idea is to allow the widths of the first 5 columns to be changed by a script and having the last one adapting as needed... html Code: Original - html Code <div class="container"><table cellspacing="0"> <colgroup> <col width="40" /> <col width="220" /> <col width="120" /> <col width="65" /> <col width="40" /> </colgroup> <thead> <tr> <th>A</th> <th>B</th> <th>C</th> <th>D</th> <th>E</th> <th style="width: 100%;></th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>1</td> <td>2</td> <td>3</td> <td>4</td> <td>5</td> <td style="width: 100%;></td> </tr> </tbody> </table></div> <div class="container"><table cellspacing="0"> <colgroup> <col width="40" /> <col width="220" /> <col width="120" /> <col width="65" /> <col width="40" /> </colgroup> <thead> <tr> <th>A</th> <th>B</th> <th>C</th> <th>D</th> <th>E</th> <th style="width: 100%;></th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>1</td> <td>2</td> <td>3</td> <td>4</td> <td>5</td> <td style="width: 100%;></td> </tr> </tbody> </table></div> css Code: Original - css Code div.container { height: 400px; width: 800px; overflow: scroll; } table { width: 100%; } td { border-style: solid; border-color: silver; border-width: 0px; padding: 1px 3px; } th { border-style: outset; border-color: silver; border-width: 2px; background: silver; padding: 1px 3px; }
It really does fill the entire space but the last column crushes all the other into their minimal width resulting in linebreaks between words inside the cells... Please help me Hey, So I have a three column layout being implemented as such: html: Code:
<div class="content">
<div class="col1 column"></div>
<div class="col3 column"></div>
<div class="col2 column">
<div class="header">Header</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS: Code:
.column {
padding: 10px;
position:relative;
}
.header {
background:#cfe6f5;
color:#416383;
font-size:11px;
font-family:Arial;
font-weight:300;
padding-left:15px;
}
.col1 {
float: left;
width:250px;
}
.col2 {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
.col3 {
float:right;
width:250px;
}
The problem is that the width of the header div extends all the way to the left and right of the page when it's in the middle column, but behaves the way I want it to (extends to the left and right of the column) when it's in the left or right column. Any ideas? Thanks. --Surgery Question title: A 2 column layout, let only the second column scroll horizontally and let them both scroll vertically Hello I did try several idea's, but all failed. Then I did search the web but found a list of > 400.000 in google. If someone is willing to tell me if it is possible and give me some directions, please do. Everything is welcome. I got a list with 3 columns ( basically you could say I have only two columns because 2-3 could be concatenated to together, but they have a different style and justification, but I could live to start with a two column sample) f.e line 1 : value_one - ( some_text - value_two (right justified) ) line 2 : value_one - ( some_text - value_two (right justified) ) line 99:.... e.t.c Column one has a fixed width of 32px. 'some text' can be longer then the wide available and value_two is with 3 spaces appended to column 2. I want that column one is fixed horizontal and that the second and the third column can scroll horizontally. Of course when there are more line's then the height of the container is should be posable to scroll vertically. Finally I need the color behind column one be different then the column 2 and 3. So what I did create is a container with two containers where the left one has a different colour then the right one and above those a container with the list. I have overflow on auto, so I get scroll-bars when necessarily. But my problem is that when I scroll horizontally that my first column scrolls away to the left. Basically my question is. How can I get a 2 column layout, let only the second column scroll horizontally ( first is locked in horizontal place ) and let them scroll both vertically? Hello, I am having difficulty with the center column on the following page: http://cbo4edu.org/index2.html I want to widen the center column so that the CBO NEWS heading touches the blue line which divides the center and right column. When I try to add width to the style sheet the left column moves out of alignment. Any help is much appreciated, thanks! Hi, hopefully you enjoyed the title, I had a good laugh thinking of it in that split second it took me to write it. So, I found a 3 column css layout on a CSS generator website, because I got sick of trying to hack up layouts I've made in the past that didn't work. Anyhow, it was working fine with one line of content in each column when I tested it out, however, once content in the middle column was added, and stretched vertically beyond a certain point, it will drag the left columns content down with it. The right column is not affected in any way. I have spent a few hours trying to look for reasons as to why it would happen, but I had no luck. I would appreciate any help... so thank you in advance if you take a stab at it. Here's the html: Code: <body> <div id="pagewidth"> <div id="header"></div> <div id="wrapper" class="clearfix" > <div id="twocols" class="clearfix"> <div id="maincol">Main Text, woot. (aka hi hi hi)</div> <div id="rightcol">Sidebar, yippee.</div> </div> <div id="leftcol"> <div id="navigation">test</div> </div> </div> <div id="footer"></div> </div> </body> and the CSS: Code: html, body

Again, thank you in advance if you can come up with anything. can i make my left column, the same height as my right column? or infact, if the left is taller than the right, the right extends to it and if the right is taller than the left the left extends to it? is this possible, cheers heres my css: left column, is #leftNav and the right column is #contentMain PHP Code: #content { margin:0px auto; padding: 0; width: 760px; } #contentMain { padding: 0; margin: 0; float: right; width: 632px; } #leftNav { color: #000; float: left; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 128px; } Hi, http://www.dudley.nhs.uk/search.asp has a two column effect. The CSS for it is he http://www.dudley.nhs.uk/css/screen.css I was wondering why if there is a table in the right hand column with a width percentage over 77% there is some horizontal scrolling? This happens in IE. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Janusz Jasinski I am a HTML&CSS novice - I am trying to write a page using a three column layout but the column colour doesn't reach the footer. I understand that this is a common problem and I've looked at a lot of examples on the web of how to work around this or create a better layout but I'm still not sure enough to know which would be the easiest and best to go within the page I have written. I want to avoid images but other than that any help would be great! I have validated the HTML & CSS and they are copied below (could any advice be really specific, as I said this is very new to me!).

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. 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.

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;
}
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 have not finished styling the rest of the page, I am only concerned with the navigation right now. 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/ Hey guys I am currently having an issue with a CSS Navigation. 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. |
