CSS - Easy (i Think) Div Aligning Problem
All I'm looking for is something like:
<div class="field">Name</div> <div class="result">Jeremy</div> Where the size of the left div is set and the right div can extend to the right of the page, but not drop underneath. I had: .field{ float:left; width:150px; } result{ float:left; } Which works fine until there's a really long name on the right. In cases like this, I still want that div to stay over to the right, but instead it drops down. So I want: Name: .... Here's a really long name. Here's a really long name. .............. Here's a really long name. Here's a really long name. .............. Here's a really long name. But I'm getting: Name: Here's a really long name. Here's a really long name. Here's a really long name. Here's a really long name.Here's a really long name. The right "column" breaks down to the line below. Of course this is easy to solve using tables. Any suggestions for Divs? Similar Tutorialshey guys, Im kinda gathering this is an easy question regarding CSS so please be patient lol (im new to css) im in the middle of building my site (http://www.featherdesigns.co.uk) This is work in progress so ignore the scrolling bars etc if you use IE.... lol if you visit this page you will see it basically has a white div (id = container) which contains all the content. all the elements inside i have put in their own div's and used the float command etc to position. i want the white box to extend or contract depending on the content inside. the sidebar on the left is ideally the minimum height but if the content goes over this height i want it to extend. if i take out the height variable in the css it shrinks but the content still appears (now just on the background and not in the white box) Any ideas how i can get this to work how i want... is there an attribute i havent used thanks ever so much for your time ( i know this is an essay ) a good example is on the landing page for the site. the bottom navigation bar has come up (in IE) but the white box hasnt! thanks guys ed I just implemented a full CSS layout at my website, lab7.org. This is the first full CSS & XHTML layout I've ever done, so there are a few problems I don' t know how to fix. I can already see that this problem will have an easy fix, I just can't be the one to do it. My content div (#rightcolumn) overlaps the "wrapper" (#behind-itall). Can anyone tell me how to fix this? If you have EditCSS for Firefox, I would also appreciate a .css file so that I may look at it. Edit: I just now realized that it only does this in Firefox. It displays fine in IE. I'm building a site: www.bunjareecottages.com.au At the moment, the middle column (which is the only variable sized bit on the page) is set to a min height of 495px. This works ok on larger resolutions, but creates a scroll even when no content reaches that length on smaller resolutions. That's as expected. What I want to have the middle section having a min height of 110px from the top of the page, and 10px from the bottom. So if the content was very little, the yellow background would still be 10px from the bottom, but if content was really long and there was a scoll, the end of the yellow was 10px from the bottom. Currently the yellow content area is relatively positioned from top by 110px, with margins of the correct sizes on each side. Everything else is absolutely positioned. Any ideas? The site is located at: http://68.41.210.39:8081/empcoBeta/index.html Why is it that the site displays fine in safari, netscape, mozilla/firefox etc, but is totally screwed in windowze IE? The css is as follows: #under { width:84%; height:1%; background-color:#1E77D3; position:absolute; top:5%; left:16%; } #mainleft { width:35%; background-color:white; vertical-align:top; position:absolute; top:10%; left:22% } #mainright { width:40%; background-color:white; vertical-align:top; position:absolute; top:10%; right:2% } body { font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 12px; } .indented1 { padding-left: 5pt; padding-right: 5pt; font-size: 12px; font-family: sans-serif; } .indented2 { padding-left: 10pt; padding-right: 5pt; font-size: 12px; font-family: sans-serif; } a:link {color: #17507e; font-size: 2; text-decoration: none; } a:active {color: blue; font-size: 2; text-decoration: none;} a:visited {color: #17507e; font-size: 2; text-decoration: none;} a:hover {color: blue; font-size: 4; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;} #column { width:1%; height:81%; background-color:#B4CCEB; position:absolute; top:0%; left:15%; } #leftsidebar1 { width:100%; height:5%; background-color:#B4CCEB; position:absolute; top:0%; left:0%; } #leftbar1 { width:15%; height:40%; background-color:#CEDFFF; position:absolute; top:5%; left:0%; } #leftsidebar2 { width:16%; height:2%; background-color:#B4CCEB; position:absolute; top:40%; left:0%; } #leftbar2 { width:15%; height:40%; background-color:#CEDFFF; position:absolute; top:41%; left:0%; } #leftsidebar3 { width:16%; height:1%; background-color:#B4CCEB; position:absolute; top:81%; left:0%; } #credits { position: absolute; left:1%; bottom:20%; } .tcredits { text-align: left; font-size: 9px; font-family: sans-serif; } ok... im making a site with CSS... this is my css code - Quote: a:link {color:white} a:visited {color:white} a:hover {color:black} a:active {color:white} body {background-color: #666666} #head{ position: relative; top: 7px; left: 140px; width: 707px; font-family: verdana; font-size: 12px; color:white; background-color: #666666; background-image: url(wavy.jpg); } #content { position: relative; top: 7px; left: 140px; width: 697px; font-family: verdana; font-size: 12px; text-align: justify; color:white; background-color: #666666; background-image: url(image/back.jpg); padding: 5px; } #foot{ position: relative; left: 140px; width: 707px; font-family: verdana; font-size: 9px; text-align: center; color:white; background-color: 666666; background-image: url(wavy.jpg); } and this is my code for my PHP page, which reads the css - Quote: <html> <head> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="fula.css" /> </head> <body> <div id="head"><img src="image/head.jpg"></div> <div id="content"> content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content </div> <br> <div id="foot">Graphics & Design by "NO NAMED DESIGNS" - Copyright 2006 "KLSOON2BE"</div> </body> </html> ok... now, if you look at it in firefox... everything aligns just fine but if you look at it in I.E its out of place... any help would b greatly appreciated! to view the page this problems on - http://www.outlawz.frihost.net/fula/test2.php http://s125392025.websitehome.co.uk/layout.html I'm working on a CSS layout(mind that this is my first time working with CSS, if something isn't right tell me, because I want to learn it right the first time), it's 2 columns, a main body and a subnav. But I can't get the subnav to align properly with the main body. I'm not too sure how to do this, I've tried it in a X,Y fashion but I'm not sure if I was doing that right. Please help. Edit: Finally Found it, nm. (never mind, i dont need layers anyways) Sorry, pls delete this! I have put together a page with a left floating text box that text wraps around the top, right and bottom. It was going pretty well, thanks to some help I have already received, but I am having a problem with a bulleted list alignment. Please take a look at the test page below. TEST PAGE The relevant style code follows: Code:
.textboxleft
{
background: #3E5C92;
font: normal 0.8em/140% arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
margin: 10px;
width: 160px;
border: 1px solid #E4E7F5;
float: left;
overflow: hidden;
padding: 0.5em;
}
.textboxleft p
{
color: #000000;
}
ul li
{
color: #E0E0F6;
font: normal 0.9em/135% tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
}
Of course, you can also look at the complete source code and download the css file for more information. I would be happy to provide any additional information. If there is something I can alter in the CSS or HTML to prevent the list bullets from bumping into the text box, please let me know. I am very new at this and have only gotten this far with the help of people like you. Thank you, Grump PS: you will also notice another thread concerning the width of the text box. It does not render at 160px in Firefox, but does in IE. I have these two blocks that need to be on the same row. As it is now, they are blocked into two seperate rows. What I'm trying to achieve, is to have the logo on the far left, where it is now. But, I'd like to have the Login text to the far right, just before the tiled background (sunflowers). I'm not sure how to fix this problem. Can anyone take a quick look? http://www.marginalspace.com/asif/index.php I am trying to solve a problem I have had for a very long time. I have ignored it but I just can't do that any longer ... The code works well in FF but not in IE. The problem: I want to display three layers side by side (left to right). The left and right layers show just fine but the middle layer jumps down to just under the higher of the two other layers, effectively making my site not IE friendly.

I have color coded the layers to simplify identifying the layers and where they show. What am I doing wrong? Thank you all in advance for your assistance. Jose PS: I cannot post a link otherwise, I would have provided you with one for my website. Hi guys .. Kinda stuck again. I've just obtained a menu which I liked, and for some reason, using the 960 gridsystem i cant get it to align correctly under the space which will eventually be a textlogo Here's the index.html: PHP Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <link rel= "stylesheet" href="css/960/960.css" /> <link rel= "stylesheet" href="css/960/text.css" /> <link rel= "stylesheet" href="css/nav.css" /> <title>FIXA DATORN!</title> </head> <body> <div class="container_16"> <div id="logo" class="grid_4 push_5"><p><h3>FIXA DATORN!</h3></p> </div> </div> <nav> <div class="menu"> <ul> <li><a href="#" title="Home">Home</a></li> <li><a href="#" title="About">Portfolio</a></li> <li><a href="#" title="Jobs">Blog</a></li> <li><a href="#" title="Contact">Contact</a></li> </ul> </div> </nav> </body> </html> and nav.css: PHP Code: /* Nav */ nav{ bottom:414px; min-width:450px; position:absolute; right:10%; text-align: center; } nav ul li{ border-bottom:5px solid #68a99f; float:left; font-family:'BebasNeueRegular', sans-serif; font-size:18pt; height:60px; line-height:60px; list-style-type:none; margin:0 7px; text-align:center; width:120px; } nav ul li:hover{ border-bottom-color:#0076a3; transition-property:border-bottom-color; transition-duration:0.5s; -moz-transition-property:border-bottom-color; -moz-transition-duration:0.5s; -webkit-transition-property:border-bottom-color; -webkit-transition-duration:0.5s; } nav ul li a{ color:#eee; display:inline-block; height:100%; width:100%; text-decoration:none; } nav ul li a:hover{ color:#999; text-decoration:none; transition-property:color; transition-duration:0.5s; -moz-transition-property:color; -moz-transition-duration:0.5s; -webkit-transition-property:color; -webkit-transition-duration:0.5s; } .current_page_item{ border-bottom-color:#af4932; } The image that is set to align right keeps moving down some. Is there anyway to get it to be level with the image that's left aligned without using a negative margin or tables? The problem occurs in Netscape 7 and IE 6. Mysteriously enough it is displayed correctly in Opera 7. Code: #title {
margin-left: 170px;
background: url(./imgs/title_mdl.gif) repeat-x;
width: auto;
height: 40px;
}
#title span {
font-size: large;
text-align: center;
}
#title img {
width: 82px;
height: 40px;
}
Code: <div id="title"><img src="./imgs/title_lft.gif" alt="" align="left"><span>Hello</span><img src="./imgs/title_rgt.gif" alt="" align="right"></div> Hey, I'm working on a site (URL) and I am having some problems. I made a class in CSS: Code:
.middle {
background-attachment: fixed;
background-image: url(images/midtop.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 0px 0px;
}
and am applying that class to the middle table. When I view it in IE, it looks fine, but in mozilla (I'm using firefox) it looks like it is positioning it at 0, 0 of the page, not the table. If I change background-position: 0px 0px; to background-position: 139px 0px; then it looks fine in mozilla, but not IE. Does anyone know how to fix this? (Or why it is happening) Thanks~ Hi Guys, I'm working on a form, and for the life of me, I can't get these divs to sit side by side. You can see the test page at www.details.at/search_test.cfm It's a small form with a few fields and selects I want each element to sit side by side in a single row. Here is the code. I thought display:inline; would do the trick, but it's not working. Code: <style>

padding:0 0 1em 2em;

}

I have set my 'a' tag as follows PHP Code: a { display:block; width: 100px; padding: 5px; border-style: solid; border-color: #B1B1AA; border-top-width: 1px; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-left-width: 1px; border-right-width: 1px; } a:hover { width: 100px; background-color: #CCCCCC; border: 1px; border-style: solid; border-color: #B1B1AA; border-top-width: 1px; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-left-width: 1px; border-right-width: 1px; } a:link { color: #000000; } a:visited { color: #000000; } here's the problem. I only want a certain menu to have this style and I want all the rest of my links to be another way but right now, all my links are like how I have above. Can someone tell me how I can assign different link styles to different links? I don't want them all the same. thanks I located an archived thread from your forum http://forums.devshed.com/archive/t-10617/css-mouse-over and I am looking for an easy turorial on how to creat these mouse over links. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I have the hardest time w/ selectors and inheritance (esp nested div's and selectors). Can someone tell me if I have the following code, how do I select it in the css? ---html--- Code:
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="container">
<div id="banner">
</div><!-- END BANNER -->
<div id="navbar">
<ul>
<li><a href="index.html"><span>Home</span></a></li>
<li><a href="index.html"><span>Boats</span></a></li>
<li><a href="index.html"><span>Cars</span></a></li>
<li><a href="index.html"><span>RV's</span></a></li>
<li><a href="index.html"><span>Aircraft</span></a></li>
<li><a href="index.html"><span>Contact</span></a></li>
</ul>
</div><!--END NAVBAR -->
</div><!-- END CONTAINER -->
</div><!-- END WRAPPER -->
</body>
---css--- THIS DOESN'T WORK Code:
navbar span
{
display: none;
}
navbar ul
{
list-style: none;
display: block;
position: relative;
}
I guess when do I use # and when do I use . and when do I use them together? A good link that uses NESTED selectors would help because most examples don't include that. This may be a dumb questions as I think I already know the answer to it. Is there any way to protect your css page from others. I would like to protect my websites against those who want to just copy them. Ofcourse these are live websites and do not need to be penalized by Google in any way if it is possible. I haven't heard or seen anything on this but I knew you guys would know for sure. Thank You! Ok, this is a problem I've never bothered fixing but I'm sure it's something simple. On virtually every horizontal CSS rollover menu I've ever built, IE7 always leaves a tiny artifact of the rollover background color on click. Here's my latest example(I'm using IE8's compat mode, but I've checked this in IE7 itself before): http://tinyurl.com/y6uf4zd CSS and XHTML are both valid. Here's the code I always use (but customize for the project): Code:
#navbar{
position:absolute;
top:162px;
left:47px;
width:448px;
height:26px;
color:white;
font-size:.75em;
}
#navbar ul{
margin:0;
padding:0;
color:#FFFFFF;
white-space:nowrap;
}
#navbar li{
list-style-type:none;
display:inline;
}
#navbar li a{
display:block;
float:left;
margin-left:8px;
text-decoration:none;
padding:.4em .75em;
color:#FFFFFF;
}
#navbar li a:hover{
background-color:#CCCCCC;
}
#navbar a:link, #navbar a:visited{
color: #FFFFFF;
text-decoration: none;
}
Go ahead and click a menu item in FF, and then click one in IE7. It never fails. IE7 always leaves a piece of the hover background-color to the right of the LI element. If you highlight the navbar, they go away... but it's very annoying. Lemme know where I n00bed. Thanks all. |
