CSS - Css Border Style Help
heya!
sorry if this is a real stupid quiestion/in the wrong area, im a bit new to css and this forum! Im wondering if there is any way to have a border only apply for part of a box... ie only the first/last 50% or 250px of the top and bottom borders. Hope this makes sence. Any help appriciated, even if it is to say it cant be done. Similar TutorialsI'm a little puzzled by this weird display bug by IE7, this bug doesn't occur in IE6. It had to do with the DIV's CSS's border-style. If you set it to double then you notice some random bugs with it. Some of the time, the border is displayed without a problem. Some of the time, it is displayed with some gaps in the line as if it is not being drawn upon. Some of the other time, it is not displayed at all. I noticed if I switch from one tab to another then back, the border appeared as if nothing had happened. I also noticed that if I open the view source that overlapp the web browser then closed it, the border appeared as if nothing had happened. How do you fix that problem? Thanks... I want to apply this style to a Table TD cell: Code: border-bottom: 1px solid #D2D7DD; It works fine in firefox but not IE, as with many things. Any get-around for this, something that IE would be happy with? Thanks. Hello, Code: <table border="1"> <tr> <td class="norightborder"> Two cells, </td> <td class="noleftborder"> but no borders between them. </td> </tr> </table> Code: .noleftborder { border-left-style: none; } .norightborder { border-right-style: none; } I notice a pixel gap between the two cells and it's annoying me. How do I get rid of it? Thanks Rogier I have the following code in my page for the links styles: Code: a:link, a:visited, a:active { font-weight: bold; color: #000099; text-decoration: none; background-color: #C4E4F7; border: 1px solid #000066; } a:hover { font-weight: bold; color: #FC6103; text-decoration: none; background-color: #FFEAD5; border: 1px solid #974B00; } The thing is, that in firefox, the code works fine, but on IE the top and bottom border sections are not displayed... Can't understand why... Any ideas how to fix it? I would like to create an effect similar to the one found on http://www.macromedia.com that when you click in the search box, the edge of the searchbox changes color. I know how to change the color of the box, but I do not know how to make the box switch whenever it is clicked on or in focus. Can anyone help me? I have the following defined in my css file: Code: table { border:1px dashed #999; } And the following code interspersed throughout other parts of my code: PHP Code: echo "<table nowrap border=\"0\">"; The problem I have is that the border is still appearing around these tables where I have specified no border. As I understand, the inline style should take precedence, right? Is this a php issue? Or am I doing something else wrong? Hi, I have created a component which is wrapped inside a div element. Is it possible to set the border of the div element similar to the borders shown by default for a select drop down? thanks and regards, Sim085 I am at a total loss on this one. I'm trying to create a simple inline unordered list menu - no problems there - I've done that plenty of times. However, this time I would like my menu to have a border around it instead of being a plain box. As soon as I add the 'border-style:solid' modifier to the div, the text misaligns straight down, roughly 15px lines, out of the box. This happens on Firefox (and apparently on Opera as well, though I haven't checked that one myself). At this point I've stripped the page to bare bones, switched from transitional to strict, tried float vs not, tried margins vs 0 margins, and padding vs 0 padding, relative vs absolute, and attempted to manually shift the text through negative positions as well. No joy. Css: Code: /* Navigation */ #nav { width: 821px; height: 18px; border: 1px; border-style: solid; border-color:red; } #nav ul { } #nav li { display:inline; float:left; background-color:#9E0C0C; text-align:center; color:white; font-family: arial, san-serif; font-size: 14px; font-variant: small-caps; } and page: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" /> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" > <link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen"> </head> <body> <div id="nav"> <ul> <li>Home</li> <li>XXX</li> <li>XXX</li> <li>CCC</li> <li>HHH</li> <li>JJJ</li> <li>kkk</li> <li>KKK</li> </ul> </div> </body> </html> (As I said, I've stripped it to absolutely nothing else.) Any suggestions would be welcome. (ETA: Also tried changing text size in case a too-large font size was making the text 'pop out' of the box. That is also not it.) I am just wondering if there is a way to simply extend a style rule from one previously defined. For instance, if I have this rule: Code: .textarea-box { color: #990000; background-color: #fff; width: 375px; height: 200px; border: #000 solid 1px; } ...if I want another text area rule to be the same except for one difference, the height should be 80px, do I have to write the rule out again with a new name, incorporating the new height, or is there some nifty way to just change the height in the new rule? Thanks for help with this. j9 Hi. Have created some simple tabs using table cells. Active tab should have bottom-border color equal to page background-color. Non-active tabs should have bottom-border=black. Works fine in IE, but does not work very well in Firefox. If I remove the border-collapse:collapse on the table, then firefox also work... but I would like to be able to keep the 1px border between each table cell. So is there a way to make this work in both IE and Firefox... and hopefully most other browsers...

PHP Code: #mainMenu a:hover { color:#000000; background-color: #66c74c; padding: 1px 4px 1px 4px; margin: 1px 1px 1px 1px; } This will provide a green colored rollover visual as the user moves their mouse over the menu bar. I just added some JS today that will highlight the clicked (selected) menu so there is visual feedback of the section the user is in. For some reason, after setting the background color of the <a href> and color attributes, the HOVER: no longer functions. Here is the code to do the hilite where I pass the ID of the <a href> menu selection in the variable "menu": PHP Code: //--- Simplify setup by creating an array of the menus and hilight ID's --- var menus = ["menu1","menu2","menu3","menu4","menu5", "menu6","menu7","menu8","menu9","menu10"]; function J_hiliteMenu(menu) { //--- first make sure all the menu are hidden and unhilited --- for(i=0; i < menus.length; i++) { if (menus[i] == menu) theIndex = i; // Hold on to the chosen index position var obj = document.getElementById(menus[i]); if (obj == null) continue; // if menu is not available skip it obj.style.color = "#ffffff"; obj.style.backgroundColor = "#234fd7"; } //--- hilite the menu we're interested in --- var obj = document.getElementById(menu); obj.style.color = "#000000"; obj.style.backgroundColor = "#f8f400"; } Prior to hiliting the menu I un-hilite all the menus (since we may be switching from another). I think this is where the problem is. Maybe I need to redefine the rollover "hover" attribute for all elements during the un-hilite loop? Does anyone know how to set a HOVER: attribute using JavaScript? Thanks! I would like to set up a table with a different border than the cells inside it. Here's my code: 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=utf-8" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> <style type="text/css"> TABLE {border: 1px solid black; border-collapse: collapse; width: 200px} TD {border: 1px solid #ccc} </style> </head> <body> <table> <tr> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> That's all hunky dory in (gasp!) IE, but good browsers...they only show the lighter gray color. How do I get the table border to be different? Hi, This used to be my solution: Code: <table border=1 bordercolorlight='#CCCCCC' Bordercolordark='#FFFFFF'> But this only works well on IE - not Mozilla Now I want to use CSS: Code: .results { border: 1px solid #CCCCCC ; } Code: <table class='results'> --------------- The problem is, with CSS, only the TABLE acquires the border property. The cells within it don't. If I specify Code: <td class='results'> for all the cells in the table, this also won't work, because the cell borders overlap each other and some border lines seem thicker than others (because of overlapping). Is there any simple way I can specify the border property for the table - in ONE declaration? I want the table and td borders all to be a simple 1px width ...is that possible in one declaration? Thanks a lot! How do you create an inner border around a table in css, rather than a "solid" border which creates a border line around the table on the outer half. The border needs to butt up against an image, rather than leaving a pixel space. This is the coder I have so far. Nothing big: Code: .solid { border: solid 1px #000000; } Thanks. on my site I have a list with the UL Class of threads. I am not good with CSS at all I have this Code: #threads { padding:0; margin:0; } #threads li { list-style:none; border-bottom:1px dotted #ccc; display:block; padding:2px 0px 2px 13px; background:url(images/sub.png) no-repeat 0 0px; } not doing what I want, my site is mypricesavings(dot)com you can see the list on the homepage under Recent Activity, I'd like to make it so that the avatars line up on top of each other and a line between each one like the featured section located on this site, however, without the scrolling. http://demo.colorlabsproject.com/?theme=arthemia-premium thank you for attempting I did a web page for a company and it looks fine in ie7 where I tested it. The problem is when viewed in IE6 its like it ignores the sizes I put in. The box appears too big in IE6 and is the propr size in IE7. Is there any way to fix it so it would look the same in IE6 as IE7? How would you go about creating a navbar like the one Red cross uses on the left side for generic website mapping? Red Cross Example Is this pure css with dual images? Or is this done with some effect with other forms of CSS (or even DHTML?) Hello, In the css below, why I can't set it on the same time? Code: background: #FFF url(../images/main_bottom.gif) no-repeat bottom ; background: #FFF url(../images/main_top.gif) no-repeat top ; I was reading a tutorial were they always style both <tr> & <td> with the same thing... Is this needed? Or do you just need to style <tr>? Code: table.navigation tbody tr.odd { background: #252525; color: #fff; } table.navigation tbody tr.odd td { background: #252525; color: #fff; } Can anybody solve the mystery of what's going on on this page?: http://www.j-archive.com/showscores.php?game_id=3346 The "Jeopardy! Round" score table and the "Double Jeopardy! Round" score table should look exactly the same, but on my browsers (Chrome 4 and IE6) the "Double Jeopardy! Round" table has a wider td for the first row. It's as if it's "inherited" the width of the tds that follow it (or perhaps came before it?)... I've checked over the markup and the CSS several times and I can't find any errors that would cause this. What's going on? Thanks-- |
