CSS - Creating Tab Borders
One thing I've never been able to replicate using CSS that you can do w/ tables is a simple content area with tab, where the border goes just around those areas and there's a set width for the tab but no set width to the area beneath it. I'll try to graphically depict what I mean he
_____________ |************|____________________ |*********************************| |*********************************| |*********************************| |*********************************| |*********************************| ------------------------------------------------- Seems simple enough, right? Just imagine that's a solid border and the asterisks are the content area, and I want to create this using only CSS and divs. The tab, say, is fixed at 100px, but the area below is at some percent, say 90% of the page. The problem ends up being the portion to the right of the tab. I need to create a div there so that the top right border is drawn, which is really the bottom border of that space. I can't simply give the area below a top border because then it would place a border under the tab, and I want the tab to be seamless with the area beneath. CSS can't figure out what the remaining width of the div to the right of the tab (at least without using the under developed display:table-cell), so I can't specify the width of that div, which means I can't know how far to extend it to reach the right side of the area below. So, generally, as far as I can tell, the above depiction can't be done without tables. Can anyone find a workaround? Please let me know if I'm not explaining this well enough. Thanks! Similar TutorialsI've always liked the various illustrated borders on some sites where the box or container of the text/images looks like an image itself, but it turns out to be something drawn with either CSS or some other web syntax. I tried to find ways to make DIV elements have a rounded-corner box or use some images as a border that will scale or change as the object increases or decreases in size. What I found were the "border-radius" and "border-image" elements. However, from what I've read online and at this DevShed forum thread, these are proposed elements for CSS3 which are not available at this time. However, the effects that are similar or exactly what these proposed future elements are supposed to do are being used now. So the question is: HOW are web designers getting custom images or rounded corners on solid borders in DIV objects WITHOUT these elements? Is it another, non-CSS markup/programming language that is making this happen (i.e.- XML, Java, JavaScript, DHTML)? Hi All, I am trying to set a style in my CSS that will show a border-bottom for an entire row. So far I can only get it to work on a per cell (<td>) basis. I am using Dreamweaver MX 2004 and when I select an entire row and assign it a style, it just add's it to the <tr> tags at the top of those rows. Code:
<!-- This is a Row that is at the top of the table -->
<table width="100%" border="0" class="fullwidth">
<tr>
<td class="head">This is a header </td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- This is where I want the border-bottom attribute to show up -->
<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="1" class="list">
<tr class="list">
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr class="list">
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr class="list">
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr class="list">
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr class="list">
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
</table>
Here is the CSS: Code:
table.fullwidth
{width: 100%;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
border: 0px;
border-collapse: collapse;
border-spacing: 0px;}
tr.list
{background-color: #EFEFEF;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
font-weight: normal;
color: #000000;
border-bottom: 1px dotted #000000;}
Can any one suggest a better CSS script for having a border in IE So far I have the following: PHP Code: border: 1px solid #0099CC; The problem is that when ran in IE, the top border does not show. However it works fine in firefox. Also I get warnings on my script when I run my CSS validation tool. Can any one help.

I want to add an inline frame inside the 'testimonies' div in my html but it keeps using the border styling of the css above. I tried using this to cancel it out (placing my inline frame in a span, but it did nothing) Code:
#testimonials {
border-left:none;
border-right: none;
border-bottom:none;
border-top:none;
}
HTML CODE: Code: <div id="testimonies"> <h2><span class="testimonies-h2">Testimonials</span></h2> <span class="testimonials"> <!-- ========== V-NewsTicker v2.2 (Freeware) ============= --> <script type="text/javascript" src="v_newsticker_1.js"></script> <!-- ======================= --> </span> </div> Hello, I can't for the life of me figure out how to get these thin white borders like on this website: http://www.viceland.com/index_us.php Is this done with a style sheet? I can't find any reference to a border. How is this done? Is it possible to have more than one border in CSS? I want to have a grey and green border around an area of text, something like this. So is it possible to have two or more borders in CSS and if so, how? q) In CSS or html, how can make my buttons and borders around a screen section ( created with css) have roundish borders and regular not corners q) How can i get the colors of such buttons to be a bit more exciting eg go from ligh to dark blue instead 1 uniform color? Hi Guys, Beat with me because ive just started using CSS for positioning etc and im giving it a whirl before I try it for a live project. I have an annoying problem though which I cannot seem to solve whereby the border doesn't show fully in IE but in Mozilla it does? I tried vary the code a bit in the CSS and I would either lose the top border, bottom border or both...? Bizarre. Here is the code it is very simple and you can see where I am going with it. I appreciate the help. Thanks! <style> body{ background-color: white; color: #0083D7; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 100%; margin: 0; padding: 0; text-align: center; } #wrapper{ width: 770px; color: white; margin: 10px auto; text-align: left; color: #666666; } #logo{ height: 70px; } /** * Top Navigation Under Logo. **/ #nav{ margin: 0; padding: 0; } #nav ul{ padding: 0; margin: 0; } #nav ul li{ display: inline; padding: 0; margin: 0; } #nav ul li a{ font-size: 90%; color: #0083D7; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #0083D7; padding: 4px; line-height: 25px; } #nav ul li a:hover, #nav ul li a:focus{ background-color: #0083D7; color: #FFEF00; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <div id="logo"></div> <div id="nav"> <ul> <li><a href="#">Holidays</a></li> <li><a href="#">Flights</a></li> <li><a href="#">Accommodation</a></li> <li><a href="#">Ski</a></li> <li><a href="#">Cruise</a></li> <li><a href="#">Holiday Insurance</a></li> <li><a href="#">Travel Guides</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </body> Hello, I have a list that looks like this Code: <ul> <li><a href="#"> List item 1</a></li> <li><a href="#"> List item 2</a></li> <li><a href="#"> List item 3</a></li> </ul> ... and my CSS for the list looks like this Code:
ul {
margin-left: 0px;
list-style: none;
border: none;
border-top: 1px solid #000000;
}
li {
border-bottom: 1px solid #000000;
}
li a {
text-decoration: none;
border-bottom: 1px solid #000000;
border-left: 14px solid #82817C;
color: #FFFFFF;
background-color: #585752;
}
li a:hover {
text-decoration: none;
border-left: 14px solid #9D9E8E;
border-bottom: 1px solid #000000;
color: #FFFFFF;
background-color: #585752;
}
My problem is that I can't get the borders go the way I want them to. As you can see, the list items have two borders, a left border and a bottom border. The unorganized list-tag has one border, a top border. In both cases, the top and bottom borders are 1px in height, and the left border is 14 pixels in width. The ul's top-border is full width, meaning it starts at the left side of the page, while again the li's bottom-border starts AFTER the left-border... ok, that was confusingly explained. What I'm trying to achieve is that the li's left-border is over lapped by it's bottom-border - so that the bottom border looks just like the ul's top-border. Ok, if you put the code to your editing program and view it "in action" you should be able to see what I mean. So to summarize it all, how can I force the bottom-border to over lap the left-border? Thank you in advance, - Kimppa Hey, searched so don't give me crap. I have 2 images, searchleft.jpg (looks like { ) and searchright.jpg (looks like } ) I only posted the Doc type just incase, I validated my webpage(www.gameyin.com) and nothing that could hurt this has happened. Anyway I want the rounded borders on the left center, for searchleft.jpg and a roundedborder for searchright.jpg on the right center. I hope I have been very clear.

I'm trying to line up absolute divs but running into an issue where IE includes the border in the width and Netscape appears to tack the borders on - so if I have a div with a width of 100px and a border of 5px, IE diplays 100px, inclusive of the border. Netscape appears to dispay a div with a total width of 110px. <div align="center" class="box" style="top:49px; left:111px; width:100px; height:100px"><br>Test<br></div> .box {position:absolute; border: 5px double black; font: 200 9px arial} Havn't been able to find the property that may control this. ???? if someone would, check out my testing grounds website... jon.endysis.org there are 3px #fff double borders going along each side of the layout (you can see them on either side of the space shuttle background) that are supposed to extend all the way down the layout, but only go until the end of the shuttle. I've learned that if I just have html br /'s after the the shuttle part they extend down for those, but for some reason don't extend down for my div class="contentleft" and my div class="contentright". if anyone wants to check my source, div id="racingstripes" is the layer that has the stripes, and it has ONLY the stripes. my css is: #racingstripes{ border-right:3px #fff double; border-left:3px #fff double; } any ideas please? i can't figure it out. thanks for any help!

Hi, Someone I know is trying to find a way of putting a border round an image (say 1px white) followed by another border around that (say 1px blue). Anyone done this or have a good idea of a way to do it? thanks how can i use: css Code: Original - css Code .t {background: url(../images/dot.gif) 0 0 repeat-x; width: 20em; width:80%; left:50%; margin:20px; } .b {background: url(../images/dot.gif) 0 100% repeat-x} .l {background: url(../images/dot.gif) 0 0 repeat-y} .r {background: url(../images/dot.gif) 100% 0 repeat-y} .bl {background: url(../images/bl.gif) 0 100% no-repeat} .br {background: url(../images/br.gif) 100% 100% no-repeat} .tl {background: url(../images/tl.gif) 0 0 no-repeat} .tr {background: url(../images/tr.gif) 100% 0 no-repeat; padding:5px; } .t-exif {background: url(../images/dot.gif) 0 0 repeat-x; width: 20em; width:200px; right:0px;} .b-exif {background: url(../images/dot.gif) 0 100% repeat-x} .l-exif {background: url(../images/dot.gif) 0 0 repeat-y} .r-exif {background: url(../images/dot.gif) 100% 0 repeat-y} .bl-exif {background: url(../images/bl.gif) 0 100% no-repeat} .br-exif {background: url(../images/br.gif) 100% 100% no-repeat} .tl-exif {background: url(../images/tl.gif) 0 0 no-repeat} .tr-exif {background: url(../images/tr.gif) 100% 0 no-repeat; padding:10px; }
.t {background: url(../images/dot.gif) 0 0 repeat-x; width: 20em; width:80%; left:50%; margin:20px; }
to make my exif info box appear on the right of the image? i have tried using right:0px but it doesn't work, any ideas? current display page hi all, hoping someone could help me with an issue i'm having in css involving borders (sort of). hopefully this is the appropriate place for this question, as it does involve some html. i have a page divided into three vertical frames (i know, i know...frames are not ideal. but i would like to keep the page in this format for specific reasons). the border is set to "0" in each frame, but on the left and right frames i use a bit of css code to create a colored border on the right hand side for the left frame, and on the left hand side for the right frame (it creates a kind of vertical outline for the middle frame). hopefully this makes sense. after completely finishing the website and uploading it to my ftp, i found that it works perfectly, except when opened in firefox or navigator. when opened with either of these browsers, the content and most of the design loads fine, but the colored borders in the outer frames are offset from their sides maybe a quarter of an inch. i can't figure out what's causing it, but i know it has something to do with the border code. as i would like this site to be as compatible as possible with most popular browsers, i'd like to try and fix this somehow. i've posted my code following this message in hopes that someone could offer suggestions. any advice would be greatly appreciated. frames created in index.htm: Code: <frameset cols = "25%, 50%, 25%" border = "0"> <frame name = "side1" src = "blankleft.htm" scrolling = "no"> <frame name = "middle" src = "main.htm"> <frame name = "side2" src = "blankright.htm" scrolling = "no"> </frameset> colored border for the left frame (side1): Code: <style type = "text/css">
body
{
border-left: 0px solid #607046;
border-right: 2px solid #607046;
border-top: 0px solid #607046;
border-bottom: 0px solid #607046;
}
</style>
colored border for the right frame (side2): Code: <style type = "text/css">
body
{
border-left: 2px solid #607046;
border-right: 0px solid #607046;
border-top: 0px solid #607046;
border-bottom: 0px solid #607046;
}
</style>
Hi I'm currently testing my code within the firefox browser and have found that no borders appear whatsoever. I was using the dotted border however changed it to solid to see if that made a difference however this did not help. The css I use for the <div> is as follows: Code:
.div_surround {
width:185px;
min-height:200px;
float:left;
margin-top:5px;
margin-right:5px;
border-bottom-style: solid;
border-bottom-color: #CCCCCC;
border-left-style: solid;
border-left-color: #CCCCCC;
border:1px;
}
I know a lot of people dont like the width to be specific pixels however unless this makes a difference to my situation, please ignore this for the time being. I am looking to change it in the future. By the way this code works fine in IE where I see a box with a bottom and left border. Thanks in advance for any help. Billabang! I need to have a div element with borders that use background image as border corner background. div must be able to expand in height and width automatically. How can I achieve this? I have a site that uses many tables to display lists of data. I would like to use CSS to clean up these tables. In particular I want to put round corners around each table as a border. The tables vary in width and height so how can I do this? |
