CSS - Ie Background Is Doing Gradient But It Shouldn't

Given an element of a fixed width but varying heights, is there a way to give that element a gradient background that would scale to the height? I would be really impressed if someone could show me a way. Thanks.

Hello all
Anyone can pls help me with horizontal gradient fill using only the background-color property in css?
Attached is the color I need to get, here it is an image, but I want to do this without using the url tag in css, whereby if possible I enter the color directly to the css code and get something like the image attached...

hey, i have 2 CSS problems.

number 1: my main <div> is not centered in IE. it's fine in FF, mozilla, and opera, but it stays all the way to the left in IE.

Code:

#main { width: 77%; margin: 0 auto; border: 1px solid #999; overflow: auto; background: #970303; color: #FFF; -moz-border-radius-topleft: 20px; -moz-border-radius-topright: 20px; -moz-border-radius-bottomleft: 20px; -moz-border-radius-bottomright: 20px; }

Code:

<div id='main' align='center'>

number 2: i can't figure out this gradient background stuff. i have an image, 1 px wide and 1000 px high. it works fine, but once theres enough information on a page, and its longer than the 1000px, the image starts over and looks extremely unprofessional. how can i make so that the one gradient image is stretched out for the length of the page?

thanks.

Basically on this page http://forum.prxa.info/profile.php?info=1&pageno=2

At the bottom the pagination boxes seem to have extra borders around them?

Should look more like http://forum.prxa.info/popular.php with seperate boxes!

Hi, I'm having a bit of a weird problem with a div layer being transparent when it shouldn't be in IE - works exactly as expected in FireFox. I've spent a fruitless day yesterday tring to figure out what I was doing wrong but no joy I've also searched this css forum but haven't found anything that quite answers my problem.

The basic problem is that I have a web page with three columns of text ...
test page

... in column one I have a list, when you mouse-over on an item in the list a hidden div is shown with associated text. The strange thing is that when I mouse-over the item, the hidden div is shown, but where the div crosses fromcolumn one into column two the background becomes transparent and therefore additionally shows the text underneath (which naturally I don't want).

I've ensured that the background color is set to white (which fixed the problem in FF) but doesn't seem to work for IE. Again this odd because the part of the div which is over column one isn't transparent so why it becomes over column two is a little odd.

EDIT : Just a little note in addition to above - obviously I have also set the z-index values so that the hidden div has the highest value of all div z-index values to ensure that it appears on top.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have just a few more CSS bugs to iron out and I can't seem to figure this one out.

Here's a link: http://www.plml.org/multitool/index.php

In IE8/Firefox it works just as it should: the #solution_area div (contains the multiplication problems) doesn't stretch to its max width.

In IE7 the #solution_area div stretches. I've tried taking out all of the contents of the .tab_content divs (just inside the #solution_area div) except for some gibberish text and it works fine. As soon as I put a single thing in, it stretches.

What's going on?

I have been having a heck of a time with css and ie.

My current problems relate to ie for Mac.

1. If I have a div I can't give a % for vertical-align, the table cell that
the div is contained in is effected by expanding vertically way beyond
acceptable. I removed the % and used a text value and have to deal with the non-alignment.

2. If I have a div float right and text that is align right, the div is
shoved way to the right off the screen. I have to scroll to see the div,
and the div is the only thing over there. I removed the text align right
and the div is in the right spot.

* The un-workedaround conundrum **************

3. I have a TD with padding like this 6px 6px 6px 100px and an img float right, or in the html align="right". The img has a margin or padding on the right of what looks like 100px instead of the 6px. The text in the TD is right and the padding on the left of the img is right.

It works fine on all other browsers except ie 5 on Mac.

If anyone has an answer, or a workaround, for for this that would be awesome!

Hi.

I would like to create a gradient similar to the microsoft website.

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads

Look how the gradients at the top and bottom of the page work. Im sure this is not simply repeating an image.

Does anyone know how this works?
or can point me in the direction of a tutorial on how to achieve this?

I looked at the microsoft site in Opera and NS, and the dynamic grad only seems to work in IE.

So im guessing that you can also set a bkgnd image?
for the other browsers?

many thanks.

I'm using CSS to create a gradient, and all is well except for the bottom of the page:

For some reason it's placing a red bar at the bottom of the gradient. Any ideas why?

EDIT: Fixed using the following:

Code:

background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-attachment: fixed;

Hi all,

I am trying to do the following:

I want to have a page essentially divided into 3 sections: left side|middle|right side. On the left and right sides of the page, I would like to have a gradient that is a dark shade of gray starting from the edge of the screen and getting lighter as it reaches the middle section of the page.

I have seen some tutorials on the web describing how this is accomplished, but I have not had much luck. I have been told that an easy way to do this would be to treat the page as a large table, with the centre cell being another table. I am pretty sure that this is poor design, but I am unsure about how to do this the proper way.

As for the gradient portion, the tutorials indicate that I should make an image that is a few pixels in height and x number of pixels in width, and just do something similar to this:

Code:

.grad{
	background:url("gradient.jpg") top left repeat-y;
}

where "gradient.jpg" is the image I created. I could then apply the "grad" class to any element I wish, but I can not get this to work.

Any ideas would be helpful.

I want to setup tab links / tab strips like shown in the following article:
http://www.codeproject.com/html/css_round.asp

However, in addition to rounded corners, id like to have the individual tabs use a gradient. Its the center part that im not sure how to handle.

Help ?!!!

Can you do something like the following:
Code:

a.tab { 
   color: #000; 
   background: #fb0 url("left-tab.gif") left top no-repeat; 
   text-decoration: none; 
   padding-left: 10px 
}

a.tab span {
   background: url("right-tab.gif") right top no-repeat;
   padding-right: 10px
}

/*my addition and it does not work */
a.tab span div {
   background: url("center-tab.gif") center top repeat-x;
}

And then use the links like so:
Code:

<a href="#"><span><div>Home</div></span></a>
