CSS - Firefox Background Stretching Into Divs I Don't Want
My code is below. The problem is the images in leftFloat & rightFloat are transparent png's and the middle background image stretches into those divs are appear behind the transparent png's in Firefox only. This does not happen in IE. I've tried setting different background images, background image to none and nothing seems to work. Any ideas are appreciated.
CSS #container { width: 100%; background: url('images/topM.gif') repeat; } #leftFloat { width: 30px; float: left; } #rightFloat { #width: 30px; float: right; } #middleStretch { height: 25px; min-height: 1% } --------------------------- XHTML <div id="container"> <div id="leftFloat"/>image goes here</div> <div id="rightFloat">image goes here</div> <div id="middleStretch">this div should stretch to fill the space between the left & right floats showing while repeating container background image</div> <!--end #container--></div> Similar TutorialsHey I'm new at this forum, and also new with tableless layouts. I wanted 2 small divs at the left and right side of the main content div. Everything went ok, till I putted some content in. None of the divs expanded in Firefox and in IE just the maindiv streched. Layout: www.dennisenderink.nl/test2 Stylesheet: www.dennisenderink.nl/test2/stylesheet.css Can you help me out please? Here's a question I can't seem to fix. I have nested DIVs and when the nested DIVs receives text/content it will stretch, but the parent DIV of that DIV won't stretch with it. Causing the nested DIV to stretch beyond the border of the parent DIV. I've temporarily(sp) tried to fix the problem by putting tables in it, but any help with this would be appreciated. Thank you. ^_^ Ok, iv had this problem alot when making sites, however this time it seems to be more complicated. http://area51.chicagowars.com/templates/modern_rouge/index.php is a site im working on. However the background in <div class="outer"> wont stretch. Iv used clearfix CSS such as Code: div.inner:after {
clear: both;
display: block;
content: ".";
height: 0;
visibility: hidden;
}
/* hide from IE-mac \*/
* html .inner {
height: 1%;
}
div.inner {
display: block;
}
/* end hide */
and the simpler Code: div.clearfix
{
height: 0;
clear: both;
}
<div class="clearfix"> </div>
You'll be able to see these in the script. Iv done this kind of thing before (http://www.rap-wars.com) where i had tyhe same problem, but this time its not workin, i think its the breadcrumbs thats complicating things! Does anyone have the solution? I'm in the middle of learning CSS and have come along alright for the most part. I have two small questions though. 1) The page I'm working on is http://www.mcconaha.com/csscenter.php. It's a three-column layout, with div boxes holding various links down the right and left sides of articles that will be posted. There is a main div that all of this sits in, and that expands just fine to whatever amount of content the article may have. But if the article were to have just a samll amount of content, the div wouldn't expand to the minimum height established by the link boxes on the right and left. How do I make that happen? I just need the light grey box to expand down to the lowest point on the page. 2) Notice the small box with the yellow border in the middle. I want this to be a copyright footer, but have a similar problem. How do I make that box appear 10px below whatever the lowest point for the main div is? Basically, I need the nav boxes to push everything down. I HOPE this can be done fluidly, so I can simply add and remove boxes quickly without needing a CSS edit...that's the goal anyway...modular nav boxes. My CSS is at http://www.mcconaha.com/csscenter.css and the page is at http://www.mcconaha.com/csscenter.php (Also note that this is really all I'm asking. I'm going to clean up the rest...just roughing it out right now.) Anyway, thanks in advance. Hi guys, I'm roughing out a template and wondered if you could please help me with something: In IE the background graphic body-stretch.jpg does not stretch as it does in Firefox, I read around and thought this may be something to do with the peekaboo hack but I couldn't get any of the fixes to work. Any ideas? Also, you will see I have a footer graphic that stretches all the way across the bottom of the page, right now it is outside my "container" div because when placed inside it is restricted to the width of the container and not to the edges of the page. If I change the width of the container to suit it everything gets left aligned. Placing the footer div outside the container means the textual content crosses over it (see page in firefox to see what I mean). Pulling my hair out! Any pointers would be greatly appreciated Code:

I have a background that is fixed, but it isn't large enough to fit all monitors, so i'd like to stretch it to fix (not repeat), but can't seem to figure out how.. here's my current code Code: <style type="text/css">
body
{background-image: url("/Images/AngelLayout.jpg");
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-attachment: fixed;}
</style>
I am attempting to build a site with a fixed-width column that automatically centers in a window. In addition, I need the center color to extend to the bottom of the browser OR to the end of the content, which ever is longer. Right now, everything works great, until the content requires the page to scroll (either due to longer content or a shrunk browser window). For some reason, even though the "testing" text will continue, the background color stops short. How can I make the background always extend to the bottom of the text, no matter the browser size or content length? (I do have a much more complicated site built with an external style sheet, but to save hastle, this is a stripped down version showing just the issue I am having. The problem doesn't change even with nesting elements in the "main" div). Sorry if this question is dumb/obvious to anyone, I have tried finding a solution and it just seems to elude me. Thanx for any help anyone can offer! Code: <html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
html {

Centering DIVs inside other DIVs in Firefox? Can it be done in a straight forward way? Setting the inner DIVs float to none seemed to work for IE but not FF. Is it possible to set a background image to a division and align it? I'm having a layout problem in firefox. In IE the layout is just how it should look, but in firefox, the dynamic links on the left side overlap (one halfway on top of the next) and the top div is messed up as well. If I add an extra line break after each menu item, it works out in firefox, but is too spread out in IE. Anyone out there have any ideas? the site is at: http://meganmumford.com the css is at: http://meganmumford.com/megan_css.css Does anyone know why firefox and netscape would interpret a div differently than IE6 and Opera? Here is my CSS: Code: #featured_prod{
background-image:url(images/featured_prod.jpg);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
color:#000000;
font:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size:10px;
text-align:center;
width:350px;
height:200px;
position:absolute;
padding:160px 20px 20px 130px;
left:16px;
top:21px;
}
and the markup: Code: <div id="featured_prod"> <a class="mylinks" href="">Click here for more information.</a> </div> Okay, everything looks okay to me in the code but it does this in both firefox and netscape: cick for image Notice that the red highlight is the outline of the div. And this is how it looks in both IE6 and Opera7: click for image The problem is that the text "Click here for more information" does not line up correctly due to the different browser interpretations. Any wisdom? Firefox 3.6 is showing a blank screen for everything I have set as 100% width but looks ok in Firefox 5. My main concern at this point is this: I'm trying to figure out how to move the 4 navigation items (the owl, contact, portfolio and home) closer to the tree without going over or under it. Any help or suggestions I can get are much appreciated! ------------------------------------- Here's the HTML: Code:

Any help welcome thanks Rich Hi Guys, I'm building a page, and the body has been given a background color. I have a container DIV, and within it are several divs that hold individual elements. I need the background of the container div and everything in it to remain white, regardless of the color of the body background. <!--- Body tag ---> body { background: #FF00AA; color: #000000; font: .8em arial, helvetica, sans-serif; margin: auto; padding:0px; } <!--- container div----> #pages { background-color:#FFFFFF; width: 900px; } <!--- nested container divs ---> #pages title { display: inline; width: 375px; float: left; padding:0 .25em .5em 0; } #pages categories { display: inline; width: 20%; float: left; padding:0 0 0 0; } But this isn't working.. What am I doing wrong here? I just need to make sure EVERYTHING's background is white when it's placed within the container div (pages). Hi everyone A bit of a call for help with some niggly issues - all found on the following page and css: http://www.crashingbydesign.com.au/rsaa/index.html http://www.crashingbydesign.com.au/rsaa/home.css 1. Two of the absolutely positioned divs don't show up at all in IE6, but they're fine in Opera 7.5 and Firefox 1.0PR. The ones with id's "title" and "utility" are the problem ones and I can't see what the problem is with IE. In addition to this, this div shows up in a different position in both Opera and Firefox (10 pixels higher in Opera). Please help!! 2. The links in the "mainnav" div are only clickable either at the very top of the <a> element (Firefox) or the very bottom of the <a> element (Opera), however in IE the whole <a> element is completely clickable. I can't see any element that is overlapping. What is going on?? All help appreciated. Cheers Bevester The objective: Produce page content which behaves as if it were 'tabbed' as seen on many websites and programmes. I have done this many times before, but only with absolute positioning from the document base level. This time, the div containing the information to be tabbed has to appear relative (for re-sizability) and contain the tab divs within it. I am using a short javascript to change the z-index of the divs in order to produce the tab effect. The problem: The whole thing works fine, except for: - If I leave the css height off the divs, IE chops the bottom off, and does not allow a scroll. - If I put a height and auto (or scroll) overflow on the divs they display correctly in IE, but disappear in firefox - Until a table contained within one of the divs becomes larger than the stated height. At which point that div (not any of the others) disappears from IE as well. The question: Is this a known bug? If so, what is the work-around? Have I done something dumb? If so, what? The source: source files are available for download (they are quite large, and I don't want to trim them in case something in the trim is the problem. Plus they need to be large to demonstrate the length issue correctly). Text within these examples is copyrighted by various people and is used without permission, for illustrative purposes only. the xhtml page - click through the tabs to see the effect. Add extra rows to the table in the 'dates & prices' tab to see the disappearing problem. the javascript file - the function is at the bottom, 'layer_z_lift'. the css stylesheet - the styles for the tabs are in the middle, commented as tour details tabs. any questions, post and I shall answer.

I've only just started using CSS rather than tables. The title bit is ok. The problem is the main <div>. In Firefox l can't seem to get the two divs (grouptitle1 & grouptitle2) to float side by side. The only way l can do it is by setting grouptitle2 to a certain width. But l want grouptitle2 to fill the remaining width of the screen whatever size the browser is and not be a set width. Is there any way so that l can make the two divs appear side by side without adding a width to the grouptitle2?? here's a working version: Clicky Hi all, My first post, a request for help please! I have been designing a site and checking in Safari, just come to check in IE7 and its all over the place. I get the feeling that there is a simple bug fix I need to add, but with deadline approaching fast (tomorrow am client reviews the site) my mind is all over the place! If anyone would be kind enough to view: cavendish-cs.co.uk/beta/ You will see in IE7 the top image will not sit next to the navigation. Check in Safari or Firefox and you can see how it should look Any help greatly appreciated Thanks Craig The problem is that I have a wrapper div that will contain two "boxes", one that has a white background one that has a black background. I want the white background box to be to the left of the black background box, but inside the wrapper div which has a red background. It works just fine in IE (which surprised me) but Firefox is doing something really strange. The black background box starts all the way to the left of the wrapper with the white background box on top of it. Not only that, but the text for the black background box starts below the white background box. I'm new to inserting code, but I'll give it a try: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0

You'll see that I've floated the white background div, but again, this is making that div sit on top of the black background div. Can anybody help? P.S. I know this isn't really pleasing to the eye, but it's just for demonstration purposes |
