Similar Tutorialshaving trouble centering a web site what i want to precisely position elements in my site and i thought that i could put all the elements in to one div tag and make that centered. i can center it but the problem is when the browser is resized smaller that the content the site remains centered and center starts diserpering off the left edge. what i want it to do once resized smaller is for a horizontal scroll bar to appear and for content not to disappear on the left edge of the screen. i have half achieved this but now my content dose not stay in the main div check out my example the "center1" div should appear inside the top light gray box but it dose not! http://www.thehopeandanchor.net/nypd/layertest.htm the code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <title>redeem file</title> <style type="text/css"> <!-- div#center1 { /*position:absolute;*/ margin:0px auto; top:10px; width:600px; height:47px; background-color: #cccccc; } div#center2 { position:absolute; left: 50%; margin-left: -300px; top:80px; width:600px; height:47px; background-color: #cccccc; } div#insidebit { position:absolute; left:50px; top:10px; width:64px; height:26px; background-color: #eeeeee; } --> </style> </head> <body> <div id="center1"> <div id="insidebit">center1</div> </div> <div id="center2"> <div id="insidebit">center2</div> </div> </body> </html> I could use some help testing out a css box that's been breaking on large screen res's. Its a sliding door effect as the page gets wider made with 800px wide images. I added max-width: 1600px to my container I'm hoping that fixed it. Quote: #container{ width: 100%; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: 100px; max-width: 1600px; } Hello I hope this isnt a stupid questions but here goes. I have a page designed with vertically centered content It works fine but if you view the page in a smaller screen size some of the content disapears in to the menu area of the browser. Its hard to explain but if you use the sorce code below and view it in any broswer. Make it so the browser is not maximized and then change the height of the window until the scroll bar appears ... you will notice that some of the conent goes into neverland before the srollbar appears. Line 1 disapears and can not be reads. This will be an issue for people viewing my site in 800x600 Thoughts? Code: <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <style> #horizon { background-color: transparent; position: absolute; top: 50%; left: 0px; width: 100%; margin-top: -200px; text-align: center; min-width: 900px; } #wrapper { background-color: #fff; position: relative; text-align: left; width: 900px; height: 380px; margin: 0px auto; } </style> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body> <div id="horizon"> <div id="wrapper"> Line 1<br /> Line 2<br /> Line 3<br /> Line 4 </div> </div> </body> </html> Hello! I'm pretty new to CSS and to this forum, but I am having a problem with my website. My layout uses a centered content div using auto margins and all the positioning in the layout is done using relative positioning. The centered content div is 800px wide and is supposed to be centered in every page on the site. However, when I switch between certain pages on the site, I'll notice that the content div will shift a bit to the left. I've tried to trouble shoot this many times and can't seem to figure out what the problem is. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I wanted to post the website so you could see an example of the problem, but I'm not allowed to do so. It's not for self-promotion just so I can fix a problem. Anyway hopefully someone can help without seeing the site. Thanks! Close this, wrong forum. Sorry! Hey, I'm a CSS noob, and I'm having some trouble with centering the content of my page. When I have the coding as an internal style sheet the page is centered, but when I put it in an external style sheet it looks the exact same...except for that it's left aligned. All I do is copy and paste it, but it change the layout around? Any tips? I update the website of a local gaming center and I recently redesigned it. I am not a CSS expert and now that I have integrated it into to site, the background will not fill the screen on larger monitor sizes. When you scroll down to the bottom of the page it turns leaves a large white space at the bottom of the screen. There is also an odd white border around the site. The css can be found in the source code. The site is nextlevelchardon.com I have a data table that has many rows and columns. When it is rendered in IE, it falls down below the left-hand navigation, as it is wider than its containing div. In firefox, it simply grows wider (to the right) than it's containing div. How do I replicate the firefox rendering in IE6? Any help much appreciated. RB I've just stripped a design, due to PNG 24 transparency rendering issues in IE ~ and now have a brand new IE related problem. In order to make the page readable prior to design elements loading, the container div has a different background color to the dark body background. In IE only [up to & inc. version 6], once the page is fully loaded, the background of that div is wider than the elements it contains, leading to an ugly white strip down the right edge of it. This is only happening in IE. Does anyone know how I can get rid of the white strip? Thank you For some reason, FF is displaying the web pages bigger than chrome or IE. I'm reviewing the site CSS with firebug on both FF and chrome but can't seem to find why its pages are different sizes on different browsers. It seems the seems either FF is scaling it up or IE and Chrome are scaling it done. The other question is, which browser(s) are displaying the real size of the webpage? Any help would be greatly appreciated! http://50.116.66.243/~ab27853/ Thanks. The main body text in IE stays within the width I gave it, but in Firefox, it just goes off the div, its all not showing becasue I have the containing div overflow:hidden, but why won't it stay in the fixed width div, 603px, in Firefox like it does in IE? mediacontour.com/TCS/frequently-asked-questions.php This is the line in my index.html: PHP Code: <PRE class=yup>blah blah blah and more blah blah blahblah more blah blah blah yes yes blah blah</PRE> This is my PRE code in style.css: PHP Code: PRE { BORDER-RIGHT: #2f6fab 1px dashed; PADDING-RIGHT: 1em; BORDER-TOP: #2f6fab 1px dashed; PADDING-LEFT: 1em; PADDING-BOTTOM: 1em; BORDER-LEFT: #2f6fab 1px dashed; COLOR: #000000; LINE-HEIGHT: 1.1em; PADDING-TOP: 1em; BORDER-BOTTOM: #2f6fab 1px dashed; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #f9f9f9; width: 90%; } PRE.yup { COLOR: #000000; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; FONT-SIZE: 12px; text-align: left; width: 80%; margin: 12px auto; } The PRE tag is in a table and i want the long text the same lenght as the short text, but i have no clue how to do it. Any ideas? I have a problem with this site - shop dot meenola dot com (Sorry - i am a new member and therefore cannot post a proper URL) - In FF the page is always scrollable to the right although there is nothing there and as far as i can tell the HTML ends in the initially viewable area. Not usually a problem for most - but using a macbook scrollpad, you tend to fly "offscreen" rather easily. Have tested in Chrome, IE, Opera and Safari - all of which display correctly (The page ends when the HTML does). Any ideas? Thanks /Adam Has anyone else experienced this? I have a div with a specified width of 503px. If I fill it with text, after about a screens worth it's physically 506px in IE (it's fine in every other browser). Anyone any ideas what could be causing this, or a solution to this problem? Many thanks Hi, I am a wannabe css compiler... Have the following problem. wrote css for a square screen monitor and placed css box in an area to the right of center, my partner called and told me it sat to the left over the side menu onher wide screen. I cannot figure out how to compensate the (top/left) position to cover both type screens... Anyone help me? Hey, I've been doing a fair amount of research on centering a page vertically and horizontally with CSS, and before I begin constructing my page, I thought I'd get some input from you guys. Basically, the page is going to look like this Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! I need help aligning the flash block to the right of my site to the one on the left so that they are both on the same line. gpostal.net is the website so you can see the flash blocks. See how one is at the bottom right? I'm trying to get that to the top right and closer to the one on the left. Hi I want to show database information with php for different items using <div> tags in manner that each run of the loop display three div in a row (horizontally) and then start a new row if more data is available, each div should show a thin border around it. for this I have written the following code PHP Code: while($row=mysql_fetch_array($res)( { ?> <div text-align: center; padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;> <?php echo "item id: " . $var .

"<br>"; ?> </div> <?php } //end loop ?> but it displays each row in a new line. please visit this http://www.dev411.com/typo/themes/?pp=8;pg=5 just to see an example of what I am talking about. I wonder if anyone could help in this? thanks is it possible to center something vertically inside a container without the use of tables? I know you use text-align to center horizontally, but what is used for vertical alignment? vertical-align doesn't work.
