CSS - Why Does This Not Render As The Same Size?
http://www.santeecooperobgyn.com/obgyn
I have just begun to design a website and already I have run into bizarre (to me) behavior. In the horizontal navigation bar, when you run your mouse over it, you can see that the inline element is bigger than the block element container because the background color changes, revealing a small 2px or so size difference. Here is the relevant CSS. Code: * { padding: 0px; margin: 0px; } #navbar { list-style-type: none; margin-left: 0px; background-color: #336633; padding: 0em; height: 2em; margin: 0px; font-size: 10pt; } #navbar li { display: inline; float: left; padding: 0.5em; } #navbar li a { color: white; text-decoration: none; text-transform: uppercase; padding-left: 10px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 0.5em; padding-bottom: 0.5em; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 100%; } #navbar li a:hover { background-color: #669966; I have no idea why this happens, unless the inline element content height is actually determined by factors other than the line-height. It seems like the total height should sum to 2em in both cases. Similar TutorialsI am sooooo annoyed with this! I have designed all of my pages with the same template however 2 of my pages seem to be roughly 10 pixels wider even though they all have a width of 940 pixels. www . toolboxstrategies . com/test/brauer Pages: Home, Communities & The Brauer Way are perfect but pages Our Region and Contact seem to be slightly wider than the rest.. How can that be when my header, body and footer all have a width of 940px? Tried to fix this for HOURS but I can't figure out what is causing it! Thank you!!!!!! Code: <style type="text/css"> <!-- .inside { background-color: #CC9; border: thin solid #000; margin: 20px; float: left; clear: left; vertical-align: middle; text-align: left; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 5px; padding-bottom: 5px; padding-left: 5px; } .tit { background-color: #FC0; clear: both; float: left; width: auto; margin-top: -10px; border: thin solid #000; font-weight: bold; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif; text-align: center; vertical-align: middle; padding-right: 2px; padding-left: 2px; } .lab { text-align: right; } --> </style> <head> </head> <html> <body> <div class="inside"> <div class="tit"> Size </div> <br /> <table> <tr> <td class="lab">Width:</td><td><input name="pxWidth" type="text" value="250" size="6" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="lab">Height:</td><td><input name="pxHeight" type="text" value="80" size="6" /></td> </tr> </table> </div> </body> </html> Could someone tell me why does this piece of code doesn't render the same way in IE as it does in Firefox. In Firefox everything is fine... I think it has something to do with the margin property of the .inside class [Edit] Sorry about the sloppy post. I actually resolved the issue. It had to do with the way IE understands divs. Thanks you for your reply Hi all, Wanted to put this to some experienced devs and just ask, why is IE8 screwing my floats!? :'( So sad.. Here's my file: Code: <html><head> <style media="screen" type="text/css"> body { margin:0; padding:0; border:0; background:#535353; font-family:"Cambria"; text-shadow: 0px 2px 1px #3b3b3b; } #masterwrap { width:100%; } #wrap { margin:2%; border:2px solid #3b3b3b; } h1 { color:#8c8c8c; font-size:2.3em; text-decoration: underline; } h2 { color:#8c8c8c; padding:0; margin:6; } h5 { margin:80; font-size:8em; color:#ffb142; text-shadow: 0px 2px 1px #3b3b3b; } #header { text-align:center; border-bottom:2px solid #3b3b3b; width:100%; height:80px; } #nav{ clear:both; text-align:center; width:100%; height:50px; border-bottom:2px solid #3b3b3b; } #left { float:left; width:50%; border-bottom:2px solid #3b3b3b; } #right { float:left; width:50%; border-bottom:2px solid #3b3b3b; } #fat { clear:both; width:100%; text-align:center; border-bottom:2px solid #3b3b3b; } #bottom { clear:both; text-align:center; width:100%; height:150px; border-bottom:2px solid #3b3b3b; } #footer { clear:both; text-align:center; width:100%; height:50px; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="masterwrap"> <div id="wrap"> <div id="header"><h1>header</h1></div> <div id="nav"><h2>nav</h2></div> <div id="left"><h2>left</h2></div> <div id="right"><h2>right</h2></div> <div id="fat"><h5>fat</h5></div> <div id="bottom"><h2>bottom</h2></div> <div id="footer"><h2>footer</h2></div> </div> </div> </body> </html> just copy paste into a html to view. Hi Guys, we're having some problems with common versions of IE (some versions work, some doesn't). In other browsers site works perfect. Link 1 Link 2 (forum) Screenshot Problem is, that IE stops rendering page at some point (half of the page). It just shows blank white space. We don't have any ideas what and why that happens. I think problem is somewhere in CSS file. Link to CSS file Where could be the problem? p.s. Refreshing site doesn't help, but changing IE window size (or setting to full screen mode), helps even without refreshing. Then page just loads. Ive been at this for almost 6 days, searched the realm for help, googled, IRC'd, worked side by side with templates - even a 2 column setup and for some reason it can't render in IE. Also looked at the Tan hack, whitespace hacks.. Would you be so kind to tell me what I can do to make this work in IE? You can find the CSS by clicking Valid CSS, and html as you know- source. Thanks dearly Site http://dailyblogdose.com Above the image there is a bunch of links to the different pages, well on Firefox when you hover on them, there is a border-bottom underline. On IE7 however it disappears. I could get them back by adding display:block; to #pages ul li a:hover however it makes them look slightly elevated. Any other ways? Newb Disclaimer: I know a little about CSS, but I'm just now making the conversion over from tables. The answer may be obvious, but I still can't see it. I have a list that I'm trying to get to render correctly between browsers. I keep running into the same problem. First of all, the link is: frontlinescreative.com/aljc2/indexCSS.html In the top right column I've got a list of three menu items, with subnavigation underneath. When you hover over the list item, the colors change, and all is well with the world. This works cross-browser. My problem is positioning. In Firefox and IE the list is flush against the blue box at left. In Safari and Opera it's about 30 some-odd pixels shifted to the right. Any ideas on where I've gone wrong? I'm trying to create a block quote like in the image below: http://www.norrislakevillas.com/images/block-quote-sample.png The quotation marks sit in the bottom right corner of a 50 X 45 px transparent PNG image with 10px of spacing on the top and left. The element is rendering correctly with the exception of the background image, it just won't show up. CSS Code: Code: #block_quote{ float:left; width:400px; background:#f7f7f7; background-image:url(images/quote-top.png) left top no-repeat; margin:50px 0 100px 53px; border:1px solid #ccc; } #block_quote p{ font:italic 14px segoe ui, arial, sans-serif; color:#5f5f5f; line-height:1.4em; margin:0; padding:20px 15px 20px 60px; } Any ideas why the image isn't rendering? Thanks Hi there, I'm completely new to CSS. I'm trying to do this more than one hour but can't get it right. Code: <font color='white'><font size='1' face=verdana size=1> I couldn't find the equivalent of this in CSS This is my last experiment but it doesn't seem to work either Code: fontstyle { color : #FFFFFF; font-family : verdana ; font-size :1;} Thanks I have a dev server Fedora 7 LAMP setup. I have a simple css tag for font size 1.2em. It looks fine. When I push it up to production (unknown server) at GO Daddy the font is HUGE. I am sure the code is the same. If I view it in Firebug all looks well. There are also a couple of other strange things like margins being off a couple of pixels here and there. My question is do different versions of Linux or maybe Apache cause CSS to render differently? Hi folks Hoping a CSS expert out there might be able to assist. I am relatively new to css and have produced a site with fluid css to render on windows and mac at 800x600 and 1024x768. The site looks fine in IE (5.5, 6 & 7), Firefox & Navigator. In Opera, it is fine at 800x600, but does not render properly at 1024x768 Also, I have tested the site with browsershots and it doesn't appear to render properly on mac / safari. I am guessing it is something to do with #text ? Do I need to clear: or something like that? If you can help, I would be grateful. Thanks in advance Sol www. waihekemagicmassage.com And: /magic.css So when using Netscape 7.2 & Opera 7.5 and MSIE 6.0, How do you get a simple tag like body { font-size:small; } to be equal in all browsers? Setting IE Text Size to Medium, and Opera's Zoom to 100% (both defaults) and Netscape 7.2 to 120% (not the default) is one way, but is there a CSS way? By the way, the child element hack "body>div {property}" wasn't working no matter what I tried, by not working I mean to say Netscape never would read it or apply it. It appeared to be that Opera & IE need to read the same value while Netscape needs to apply a larger size to be equal to IE's and Opera's rendering. B I could see this as potentially being really easy to do or really hard to do. I'm hoping for the former. Suppose I have 3 divs, A, B, C and that I want the total width of A + B + C to equal the width of the screen. Suppose also that I want them to be inline. How can I have B to be a fixed width while A and C expand depending on the screen width (such that the width of A = the width of C)? Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <title>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body> <div style="background-color: red;"><input type="radio" id="radio"></div> </body> </html> Viewing this simple test page in a broswer shows that IE and Mozilla both vertically align the radio button differently within its "box" as well as giving it a different number of pixels of padding and/or margin on all 4 sides. Are there any tricks to getting consistency? Hi All, Developed a weird issue in FF and IE8 and am not sure what to do with it. I have some tables that will just not display correct, the table is rendering a little too small and making the text overflow the cells. Its really odd and not sure what to do about it? I took a screen shot in IE, but the have happens in FF. Anyone any ides? People viewing my site at 120 dpi are seeing misaligned text and layout, whereas people viewing the site at 96dpi can see it properly. I'm using "em" instead of pixels when setting font sizes in CSS. The site has fixed length and width, do I HAVE to allow it to resize itself? Please help! I've got two rounded boxes one is contained in the other. If the innerbox grows, the outer box should grow with it. Firefox does a great job and grows with it but IE7 doesn't grow, any help would be greatly appreciated. here's the CSS i've used for IE: Code: /* first rounded box */ /* images are set in the index.php */ /* height and width details */ .rbtop div, .rbtop, .rbbot div, .rbbot { width: 100%; height: 14px; font-size: 1px; } /*.rbroundbox { width: 60em; margin: auto; background-color: #37a5f0;} */ .rbroundbox { position: absolute; top: 15px; width: 800px; margin: 5em 0 0 2em; background-color: #37a5f0; } .rbcontent { margin: 0 14px; min-height: 570px; height: 100%; } /* EOF first rounded box */ /* second rounded box */ /* images are set in the index.php */ /* height and width details */ .rbtop2 div, .rbtop2, .rbbot2 div, .rbbot2 { width: 100%; height: 24px; font-size: 1px; } /*.rbroundbox { width: 60em; margin: auto; }*/ .rbroundbox2 { position: absolute; top: 5px; width: 577px; margin: 9.5em 0 0 12em; background-color: #9cd5f0;} .rbcontent2 { margin: 0 14px; min-height: 375px; } /* EOF second rounded box */ here's the html i've used: Code: <body> <div class="rbroundbox"> <div class="rbtop"><div></div></div> <div class="rbcontent"> <div class="rbroundbox2"> <div class="rbtop2"><div></div></div> <div class="rbcontent2"> <p><?=$content?></p> </div><!-- /rbcontent2 --> <div class="rbbot2"><div></div></div> </div><!-- /rbroundbox2 --> </div><!-- /rbcontent --> <div class="rbbot"><div></div></div> </div> <!-- /rbroundbox --> </body> Hi, Im trying to code a small portfolio page but im having trouble with the sizing of one of the sections. Here is my page: http://www.zombiemod.com/blog/?cat=1#all Here is my code for the div: Code: #container div { margin-right:3px; float:left; width:296px; height:130px; border:1px solid #999; position:relative; overflow:hidden; } How do I make the Div display this size correctly? hi, someone using foxfire keeps saying the my font is really really tiny, I have my css file like:
