CSS - Creating A Column Of Select Menus
Hi,
I would like two columns, one with the title (i.e. menu1,2,3) and the next with the select menu. In the past, I have used tables (yikes!). I am assuming it should be a list,however, the markup could be changed if something else is more suitable. Any suggestions on appropriate CSS, or sites which give good examples? Thanks Code: <ul id="selection_list"> <li>menu1<select id="menu1" name=" menu1" ><option value="1">opt1</option><option value="2">opt2</option><option value="3">opt3</option></select></li> <li>menu2<select id="menu2" name=" menu2" ><option value="1">opt1</option><option value="2">opt2</option><option value="3">opt3</option></select></li> <li>menu3<select id="menu3" name=" menu3" ><option value="1">opt1</option><option value="2">opt2</option><option value="3">opt3</option></select></li> </ul> Similar TutorialsI have two navigation menus on my site. One that is horizontal across the top and the second is vertical along the left side. Both of these have rollover effects. I would like to code this with as few lines as possible. So far, I only have the code for the left-side navigation menu. What else should I add for the horizontal menu? Code: #navbar ul{
list-style:none;
margin:0; /* removes indent in IE and Opera */
padding:0; /* removes indent in Mozilla and Netscape 7 */
border:none;
list-style-type:none; /*turns off display of bullet */
}
#navbar li{
border-bottom:1px solid #003366;
margin:0 /*dictates the space between navbar items */
}
#navbar li a {
display: block;
padding: 5px 0 5px 5px;
border-left: 10px solid #1958b7;
border-right: 0px solid #508fc4;
background-color: #2175bc;
color: #fff;
text-decoration: none;
width: 100%
}
#navbar li a:hover {
border-left: 10px solid #1c64d1;
border-right: 0px solid #5ba3e0;
background-color: #2586d7;
color: #fff;
}
I'm trying to create a printable version of a website that uses two columns of text. But then I have to know where the page will end, and this depends on the default header & footer margins of the browser. Is there some kind of coding trick for getting this to work? Hola, I'm about done with my site design. CSS is almost complete, and I'm happy with how the site appears across all browsers. The next step in my development cycle is going to be provide alternate color themes to my users. I will have a default theme, and at the top right corner will be a small palette/swatch of about 7 colors, each representing a color theme. What is the best way to approach this? My idea is that each theme has its own set of color variables which would be included as a file, inserted into the style sheet.Each theme would have it's own include file, and a variable placed in a cookie would determine which theme file was included. ie (i'm using cfml but it should apply to any scripting language) ------------------------------- <cfset background = #e3edc2 > <cfset color = #333 > <cfset text = #686397 > <cfset validated text = blue > <cfset error text = red > <cfset header background = #abd240 > <cfset navbar backgroud = #686397 > ----------------------------------- Then in the actual style sheet I would have --------------------------------------------- <cf include template="theme.cfm"> body { background: #variable#; color: #variable#; font: .8em arial, helvetica, sans-serif; margin: auto; padding:0px; } a { color: #variable#; } .smalltext { font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #variable#; font-size: .7em; } --------------------------------------------------------- Does this seem logical? Basically, I just want people to be able to choose between various color sets that would be applied to the style sheet dynamically. I can then work from one Main style sheet and add color themes as I please. Hi I am trying to make a table to display some stuff within a fix sized window. I want to have 5 columns of fixed width and one column that spans the rest of the remaining space. The Idea is to allow the widths of the first 5 columns to be changed by a script and having the last one adapting as needed... html Code: Original - html Code <div class="container"><table cellspacing="0"> <colgroup> <col width="40" /> <col width="220" /> <col width="120" /> <col width="65" /> <col width="40" /> </colgroup> <thead> <tr> <th>A</th> <th>B</th> <th>C</th> <th>D</th> <th>E</th> <th style="width: 100%;></th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>1</td> <td>2</td> <td>3</td> <td>4</td> <td>5</td> <td style="width: 100%;></td> </tr> </tbody> </table></div> <div class="container"><table cellspacing="0"> <colgroup> <col width="40" /> <col width="220" /> <col width="120" /> <col width="65" /> <col width="40" /> </colgroup> <thead> <tr> <th>A</th> <th>B</th> <th>C</th> <th>D</th> <th>E</th> <th style="width: 100%;></th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>1</td> <td>2</td> <td>3</td> <td>4</td> <td>5</td> <td style="width: 100%;></td> </tr> </tbody> </table></div> css Code: Original - css Code div.container { height: 400px; width: 800px; overflow: scroll; } table { width: 100%; } td { border-style: solid; border-color: silver; border-width: 0px; padding: 1px 3px; } th { border-style: outset; border-color: silver; border-width: 2px; background: silver; padding: 1px 3px; }
It really does fill the entire space but the last column crushes all the other into their minimal width resulting in linebreaks between words inside the cells... Please help me Hi all, I've tried searching around for this issue, but I've not found any help so far and it's driving me nuts. I hope someone here can advise. This is an abridged version of the site's code for example: Code: <style type="text/css">

I've placed the Country Title in an H2 tag, then beneath that, each anchor is enclosed in a DIV, and is set as a left-floated block. Then I placed a spacer DIV (clear: both) to create a new line, then repeated with H2 and links. This all works fine in Firefox, IE7 and Opera, but of course IE6 is being a pig as usual. The spacer DIV is pushed to sit alongside the bottom of the left column, and I can't figure out how to (or if I can) stop this. I can't add in links properly, so I hope this is acceptable under the rules -- The site in question is: www.swalings .com/swalings/index4.asp and here's a screenshot of IE6 behaviour: www.swalings .com/images/swalings-ie6-troubleshoot.jpg Hopefully that's enough information to go on, please let me know if there's something I missed out. Thanks a lot! Rob Hey, So I have a three column layout being implemented as such: html: Code:
<div class="content">
<div class="col1 column"></div>
<div class="col3 column"></div>
<div class="col2 column">
<div class="header">Header</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS: Code:
.column {
padding: 10px;
position:relative;
}
.header {
background:#cfe6f5;
color:#416383;
font-size:11px;
font-family:Arial;
font-weight:300;
padding-left:15px;
}
.col1 {
float: left;
width:250px;
}
.col2 {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
.col3 {
float:right;
width:250px;
}
The problem is that the width of the header div extends all the way to the left and right of the page when it's in the middle column, but behaves the way I want it to (extends to the left and right of the column) when it's in the left or right column. Any ideas? Thanks. --Surgery Question title: A 2 column layout, let only the second column scroll horizontally and let them both scroll vertically Hello I did try several idea's, but all failed. Then I did search the web but found a list of > 400.000 in google. If someone is willing to tell me if it is possible and give me some directions, please do. Everything is welcome. I got a list with 3 columns ( basically you could say I have only two columns because 2-3 could be concatenated to together, but they have a different style and justification, but I could live to start with a two column sample) f.e line 1 : value_one - ( some_text - value_two (right justified) ) line 2 : value_one - ( some_text - value_two (right justified) ) line 99:.... e.t.c Column one has a fixed width of 32px. 'some text' can be longer then the wide available and value_two is with 3 spaces appended to column 2. I want that column one is fixed horizontal and that the second and the third column can scroll horizontally. Of course when there are more line's then the height of the container is should be posable to scroll vertically. Finally I need the color behind column one be different then the column 2 and 3. So what I did create is a container with two containers where the left one has a different colour then the right one and above those a container with the list. I have overflow on auto, so I get scroll-bars when necessarily. But my problem is that when I scroll horizontally that my first column scrolls away to the left. Basically my question is. How can I get a 2 column layout, let only the second column scroll horizontally ( first is locked in horizontal place ) and let them scroll both vertically? Hi, hopefully you enjoyed the title, I had a good laugh thinking of it in that split second it took me to write it. So, I found a 3 column css layout on a CSS generator website, because I got sick of trying to hack up layouts I've made in the past that didn't work. Anyhow, it was working fine with one line of content in each column when I tested it out, however, once content in the middle column was added, and stretched vertically beyond a certain point, it will drag the left columns content down with it. The right column is not affected in any way. I have spent a few hours trying to look for reasons as to why it would happen, but I had no luck. I would appreciate any help... so thank you in advance if you take a stab at it. Here's the html: Code: <body> <div id="pagewidth"> <div id="header"></div> <div id="wrapper" class="clearfix" > <div id="twocols" class="clearfix"> <div id="maincol">Main Text, woot. (aka hi hi hi)</div> <div id="rightcol">Sidebar, yippee.</div> </div> <div id="leftcol"> <div id="navigation">test</div> </div> </div> <div id="footer"></div> </div> </body> and the CSS: Code: html, body

Again, thank you in advance if you can come up with anything. can i make my left column, the same height as my right column? or infact, if the left is taller than the right, the right extends to it and if the right is taller than the left the left extends to it? is this possible, cheers heres my css: left column, is #leftNav and the right column is #contentMain PHP Code: #content { margin:0px auto; padding: 0; width: 760px; } #contentMain { padding: 0; margin: 0; float: right; width: 632px; } #leftNav { color: #000; float: left; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 128px; } Hello, I am having difficulty with the center column on the following page: http://cbo4edu.org/index2.html I want to widen the center column so that the CBO NEWS heading touches the blue line which divides the center and right column. When I try to add width to the style sheet the left column moves out of alignment. Any help is much appreciated, thanks! I am a HTML&CSS novice - I am trying to write a page using a three column layout but the column colour doesn't reach the footer. I understand that this is a common problem and I've looked at a lot of examples on the web of how to work around this or create a better layout but I'm still not sure enough to know which would be the easiest and best to go within the page I have written. I want to avoid images but other than that any help would be great! I have validated the HTML & CSS and they are copied below (could any advice be really specific, as I said this is very new to me!).

This happens in IE. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Janusz Jasinski hi all, right have got a problem which has been bugging me for days now. i have 4 columns in a row (inside a wapper div)which all will have different content image, text other divs/classes etc. now one of these columns will be quite fluid as it will have different text on each page meaning it will be quite long on some pages not on others. the problem i am getting is in the good browsers firefox etc its ok in IE6+. the wapper does'nt seem to see the divs in the content meaning it does not get filled, meaning that the footer flys to the top and not where it should be, i dont have a live version but heres the code: mainly thanks Dan <!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"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> <style type="text/css"> <!-- #con { width:940px; height:400px; background-color:#00FFFF; } #wapper { width:940px; background-color:#006666; } #box { width:940px; background-color:#000033; height:40px; } #menu-pronuptia { width:185px; background-color:#6633CC; float:left; display:inline; } #menu-pronuptia1 { width:185px; background-color:#009900; display:inline; float:left; } #menu-pronuptia2 { width:385px; background-color:#0033CC; display:inline; float:left; clear:inherit; } #menu-pronuptia3 { width:185px; background-color:#CCCC33; display:inline; float:left; } --> </style> </head> <body> <div id="wapper"> <div id="menu-pronuptia"> <p>test</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> </div> <div id="menu-pronuptia1"> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> </div> <div id="menu-pronuptia2"> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> </div> <div id="menu-pronuptia3"> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> </div> </div> <div id="box"> <p><br /> </div> </body> </html> Hello! I'm new to CSS, so any help would be greatly appreciated! I'm working on this page: sugarhooker[dot]com/testing/index2.html *The CSS is included in the head The right column is suppose to start where it says 'Are you hooked...' It should be right underneath the navigation bar. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Thanks in advance! hello. I am currently using a simple horizontal top menu with a vertical drop down. I would like to change the vertical drop down to be horizontal, multi column, and should accomodate more than one line, if possible.

I've become fond of the idea of non-javascript menus. I've been experimenting a little. So with help from various sources I managed to get a simple set working. I have this... Code:
#menu ul li > ul {
display: none;
position: absolute;
top: 18px;
left: 0;
width: 170px;
}
which correctly 'hides' the sub-menu. Then I have this Code:
#menu ul li:hover > ul {
display: block;
}
which should 'unhide' the sub-menu. Now, because I'd had success with the menu, I thought I should now look at validating my html and css. So far, I've just looked at the html part. My question is, why does it work with this code (which doesn't validate under Strict doctype)? Code:
<div id="menu">
<ul>
<li class="small"><a href="blah.php">About</a>
<li>Details On...
<ul>
<li class="small"><a href="blah.php">Registering</a>
</ul>
</ul>
</div>
and not this (which does validate)? Code:
<div id="menu">
<ul>
<li class="small"><a href="blah.php">About</a></li>
<li>Details On...</li>
<li>
<ul>
<li class="small"><a href="blah.php">Registering</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
I'll listen to any thoughts on this, even the use (or not) of doctype strict. Thanks for listening! Stay JOLLY H Hi, I wanted to do a horizontal popout menu. I have the code and it works but I am trying to undertsand it better. It uses a csshover.htc file which i didn't download but the thing still works fine with a ie sniffer code in it. It doesn't use any javascript which I thought it needed. There seems a few ways to do expanding menus in css (with/without javascript)? Menus are more complicated than they look but I would some explanation on the above points before i continue. Please help me. This is driving me crazy. I am getting a problem in IE and I can't seem to figure out how to fix it. Of course, it works just fine in Firefox, but not IE. In IE, go to to this page. On the horizontal drop-down menu, go to "Guides." Then scroll through the three drop-down options and back up. Notice how the 3rd level menu suddenly dissapears behind the 2nd level menu? Here's the portion of my CSS file controling the menu: Code: /********** LAYOUT - HEADER **********/
#header {background: #ffffff;
margin-top: 10px;
margin-bottom: 25px;
padding: 0 0 8px;}
img.headerimg {margin-left: 25px;}

Please help me! Thanks! Manny I am learning CSS and started to like it I was trying to make an image gallery so was just playing around with this link I got Please see this http://www.cssplay.co.uk/menus/tabmenu.html When I added five more images in this, the last images ceases to display How can I correct that I was testing this by adding this code 5 times <li> <a href="#nogo"> William Turner<br /> (1775-1851) <span> <img src="../img/turner.jpg" alt="painting" title="painting" /> This English painter was one of the greatest romantic interpreters of nature in the history of Western art and is still unrivaled in the virtuosity of his painting of light. </span> </a> </li> I was anticipating that a scrollbar would come automatically in the browser but that dint happen What should I do? Hi All, I seem to have made a mistake in installing a CSS drop-down menu b/c despite my best efforts, I cannot seem to make it work in Internet Explorer. I am using the Suckerfish method found http://www.alistapart.com/articles/dropdowns My CSS file is here And a sample page can be found here Does anyone see a mistake I made? All other browsers work beautifully, so the problem must lie in the Internet Explorer hack. |
