CSS - Margin-top Moves The Whole Page Down
I swear, its just one of those days. I'm pretty good with CSS/HTML, but I had not touch it in a while. I sat down, and for the life of me I can solve even the simple problems...
I know I solved this a buch of times, but now I cant remember how, looking back on my old code/sites dosent tell me much. So I have a div in the header. When I put margin-top (org just margin: x 0 0 0;) the whole page moves down because of the margin. Its like child div is influencing parrent div. I tried positioning every parrent div to relative but no luck... I cant get this child to behave. I know this is an easy question, I'm just not myself today. Similar TutorialsI've been looking through many, many forums trying to resolve this issue, so please forgive me if there is a solution to this that I've missed. Here's the deal: On some installs of Firefox (4.0), the body is being positioned 28px lower than the top of the screen. I set the <html> tag to have a light blue background to troubleshoot the issue, and now there is a light blue bar across the top of the page, proving that it is the body of the page that is lower than it should be. I thought it was a Firefox "collapsing margin" issue, so I added "margin:0; to almost everything, and it didn't help. I'm trying to do this without having to absolutely position everything. Here's the site: www-dot-myportlandtours-dot-com here's the css: www-dot-myportlandtours-dot-com/wp-content/themes/myportlandtours/style.css Anybody have insight into this? Alright... I give up on this one. The copyright moves up and down by a pixel or two between different pages. Go from the Home page to the Diabetes page and look at the footer and you will see. I have tried changing the margins, padding, and line-height on the text in the footer. I can get it to temporarily work but as soon as I change anything above the copyright (i.e. in the #content div) like line-height, add text, and etc it moves the copyright between pages again. Basically the content div is pushing down on the copyright differently depending on the amount of text that is in the article. Because other than the text all the articles pages code is exactly the same. All the footer text is a PHP include if that makes a difference. Thanks for looking at it because I have been working on this for quite a few days now and it is buggin the ba-jesus out of me? I have a theory, the footer (thats where the copyright is) is absolute positioned. Therefore it is taken out of the flow of the document. Could this be the cause of my problem? So if I were to place all the copyright and footer links within another div within the footer div would that bring those back into flow? Like if I gave that new div a position of static or something? Or is it out of the flow regardless because it's sitting inside of an absolute positioned div? Thanks a lot - here is the site in question hey all, i have a strange problem... When the page opens the footer appears on top of the page content but if i refresh the page it goes to the bottom as expected?? really wierd can someone please help me with this? here is the page lin to see what i mean page with the problem and here is a link to me css css page Any ideas would be great. I am using firefox Thanks RF Hi there..I wanted to print the bottom document using the stated margin but nothing happens...I am now using I.E 5.5.. Pls help...

Hi guys. I am building a website where some pages are long (and the slidebar appears) and others are short (so the slidebar doesnt appear) The problem is that the page is centered and when the slidebar appears, the page moves a bit to the left. I could set the left-margin to X pixels but then it wont work as expected with different resolutions. Is there anyway to solve this problem? Background info: - I have validated the page and CSS, no problems there - Site is working properly in Firefox and IE, seems to be a margin issue in Safari -This margin issue is not the common Safari bug with a negative margin being applied to a floated element -I am using Safari in a windows environment, I do not have a Mac The problem: -in Safari the top margin on the content either is either not being applied at all or is being interpreted differently -it may be of note that I was having the same issue with IE, but was able to specify an IE specific style sheet for it, I don't believe this is possible in Safari?

Hi! Should I do this? p { margin-top: 2em; margin-bottom: 2em; } or this: p { margin-bottom: 2em; } Same question for headers (h1, h2, etc) Thanks! Heya guys, Hope someone can help me with this one. Been looking around the web but most are suggesting to do what i have already done. I've got this in style.css file: Code: /* SEARCH Bar */
.lb_bl {background: url(/img/lb_bl.gif) 0 100% no-repeat #E5ECEC}
.lb_br {background: url(/img/lb_br.gif) 100% 100% no-repeat}
.lb_tl {background: url(/img/lb_tl.gif) 0 0 no-repeat}
.lb_tr {background: url(/img/lb_tr.gif) 100% 0 no-repeat; padding: 3px}
.clear {font-size: 1px; height: 1px}
.topform {
position: absolute;
right: 5px;
top: 65px;
width: 300px;
font-size: 10px;
font-family: myriad, verdana, sans-serif;
text-align: right; }
input, form {
font-size: 11px;
font-family: myriad, verdana, sans-serif;
margin-bottom: 0px;
margin: 0px; }
/* End of SEARCH Bar */
Which refers to this part of my index.php page: Code: <!-- Top right SEARCH -->
<div class="topform">
<div class="lb_bl">
<div class="lb_br">
<div class="lb_tl">
<div class="lb_tr">
<form name="form" id="form" method="post" action=""><input name="search" type="text" />
<input name="search" type="button" value="SEARCH" /></form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="clear"> </div>
</div>
<!-- End of top right SEARCH -->
But i am still getting a space below the form in IE (firefox is perfect). What should i do? You can see an example of the page at www.theresortwarehouse.com Thanks in advance to anyone who can help - Gaz Hi all Take a look at this in Firefox and then in IE7: http://www.josh.ch/files/temp/ie7_margin_bug/formulare.html The text input and the textarea fields have a strange margin on the left in IE7 that shouldn't be there. It seems to be "inherited" by the outher paragraph, just change the value in css/general.css on line 29 to see it happen. FF and IE6 behave well, IE7 doesn't. Interestingly, the select field (and all the other fields like radio buttons and checkboxes) don't have this problem. I did a search and found this link: http://www.positioniseverything.net/explorer/floatIndent.html Seems to be something like that, but the display:inline fix didn't help. the only way I see is a minus margin for the text input and textarea fields for IE7 only, but maybe there's a cleaner way? Thanks a lot for help :-) Josh i have strange problem with IE 8 where an element is incorrectly placed when i open an Iframe, but if the iFrame is closed and reopened the element in question is correctly placed. I don' know if this is a code problem or if it's an IE 8 issue?? i see i cannot post a url. any help without seeing the problem? Here is the code snippet from the iframe: Code: <div style="margin: 0px;" id="votes"> <ul style="margin: 0px;" id="xvotes-0" class="star-rating-noh"> <li id="xvote-0" style="width: 81.25px;" class="current-rating"></> <span id="mnmc-0"> <li class="one-star-noh"></li> <li class="two-stars-noh"></li> <li class="three-stars-noh"></li> <li class="four-stars-noh"></li> <li class="five-stars-noh"></li> </li> </ul> </div> I've been adding local styles to try and zero any potential problems. i can post all css styles if noone has any ideas. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks. I want products listed horizontally first, then move to next line if there is to many. But instead, each product listed on a new line. http://www.refinethetaste.com/html/default.asp?Section=products&CATEGORYID=4 PHP Code: /* products.css */ #products { float: left; } #products .productbox { background-color: #ececec; width: 150px; padding: 10px; margin-top: 10px; } #products .productfooter { background: url(../images/arrow.gif) 20px 0 no-repeat; padding-left: 58px; margin-bottom: 10px;} #products img#product { width:150px; height:150px; border: 0px; } Hey, I know this is my first post here and it's code support, but this forum's been recommended to me, so here goes: Right, so I want two little 'mini buttons' that when hovered over, they will expand. I have the concept pretty much figured out; I have a div called 'logo' that everything header-side goes in, I have a div called 'minibuttons' (outlined in blue on the screenshot), and, a div called 'login' which is outlined in green. Screenshot: And when minibuttons is hovered over: But as you can see, it moves the login div too. Appropriate CSS: Code: div.logo
{
background-image: url("/images/logo.gif");
border: solid 1px #808080;
border-bottom: none;
border-top: none;
height: 85px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
width: 775px
}
div.login
{
border: solid 1px #00ff00;
height: 75px;
left: 625px;
position: relative;
top: -18px;
width: 145px
}
div.minibuttons
{
border: solid 1px #0000ff;
left: 570px;
position: relative;
top: 70px;
width: 48px
}
div.minibuttons:hover
{
left: 570px;
position: relative;
top: 1px;
width: 48px
}
Appropriate HTML: Code: <div class="logo"> <div class="minibuttons"> <a href="http://www.conquerhosting.com"><img src="images/mini/hosting2.gif" alt="H" id="hosting2" onmouseover="over(8)" onmouseout="out(8)" /></a> <a href="http://www.conquerdesigning.com"><img src="images/mini/designing.gif" alt="D" id="designing" onmouseover="over(9)" onmouseout="out(9)" /></a> </div> <div class="login"> <form id="login" method="post" action="http://<?=$_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"]?>:2082/login" onsubmit="disable()"> <fieldset class="login"> <input type="text" name="user" value="username" class="login" onfocus="clearbox(this)" /><br /> <input type="password" name="pass" value="password" class="login" onfocus="clearbox(this)" /><br /> <select class="service" name="service"> <option value="2082">cPanel</option> </select> <input type="submit" name="login" value="Login" class="button" /> </fieldset> </form> </div> </div> Appropriate JS: Code: if (document.images)

Any ideas people? Thanks, Danny. Hi, I have spend 2 days trying to figure out why this happens, and i just cant figure it out... My links in my main menu moves 1 - 3px to the right in IE explorer at mouse-over....but only when i set a: hoover to change background color.... if i only change text color with a : hoover its fine. Anyway i just realized that this was a complete waste of time since i'm not allowed to give my URL for people to see the problem... Cheers, Bukit1 Hi, I am at a loss. I have a basic css webpage at websitehosting1.com/Tutorials.html when you go to the tutorials page that I created for my friends, the footer adds white space above it when I add text to the body. I want the left nav right nav and footer to be blue, but I can't figure this out. All help is appreciated. Thanks. E. I have a table with 5 columns. I only want the table to cross about 70% of the screen. Whenever I try to re-size it either via css or just 'width = 70%' the table stays the same width and just jumps towards the right of the page. It doesn't matter if I put a width on my body, a div wrapper, or the table.. same results. I've never had these resizing issues before but I admit i haven't coded anything in 6 months Thanks for any help. **Edit** Oh, I forgot to mention the table is initially wider than the screen and its seems to be staying that wide because each column will stay as wide as it's longest entry. Hey, as always it seems to work normal with FF. But IE starts moving images when you go over it. link: http://www.net-force.com/hotest/a1.html any suggestions how to fix it so it displays properly in IE? thx! Greetings, I am just starting CSS Design and am having a problem with my footer div background image moving 1 pixel to the right (messing up background image sync to above div) when the browser window is expanded to over 900pixels (which is min width of webpage) This happens in IE6/7 and not FF Any help would be great; http:// www. beavershanghai .com Hi There.. I am still learning CSS/Xhtml so please be patient and understanding, . Anyway, I am making a site for my business and wanted to try some new idea. Everything looks good except for my navigation bar in IE. Whenever I change resolution the navigation bar moves out of position and I have to refresh to get it to snap into place. In Firefox and Chrome I do not have this issue. I have been googling trying to find the solution but have come up empty. Could someone look at my code and tell me when I did wrong so I don't make the same mistake again? Thanks for your help. Here is the CSS: <style type="text/css"> <!-- #html, body { top: 0px; right: 0px; bottom: 0px; left: 0px; width:920px; height: 100%; background: url(desk.jpg) white center no-repeat; background-repeat:no-repeat; margin: 0 auto; text-align: center; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; } #container { width: 900px; height:840px; background-image: url(bg1.png); margin: 0 auto; text-align: left; } #mainContent { padding: 3px 60px; margin-top: 0px ; } #text { padding: 0; margin-left: 35px; text-align: center; } #navigation { float:right; display:block; width: 400px; margin-top: 15px ; font-family:Trebuchet MS, Helvetica, sans-serif; overflow:hidden; } #navigation ul { float:left; list-style:none; margin:0; padding:0; position:relative; left:50%; text-align:center; } #navigation ul li { display:block; float:left; list-style:none; margin:0; padding:0; position:relative; right:50%; } #navigation ul li a { display:block; margin:0; padding:.4em .8em; color:#000; text-decoration:none; line-height:1.3em; } #navigation ul li a span { display:block; } #navigation ul li.active a { color: #fff; font-weight:bold; } #navigation ul li a:hover { color: #fff; font-weight: bold; } .guy { float: right; margin-top: -70px; } .yell { float: left; margin-top: 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; margin-right: 30px; margin-left: 20px; } .second { margin-top:45px; } #footer { font-size: 11px; margin-bottom: 10px; } --> |
