CSS - Floated Right Div Problems In Firefox
Hi,
I have managed to rewrite my three column navigation page using floated divs instead of its original table (the page was written years ago and I am updating to get away from tables). This was hard for me because I am very new to CSS. My code validated and the page looks fine in IE but in Firefox the third or right column does not clear the middle column. I tried to google the problem but the explanations are way over my head. Also the only way I could get the blue border to not show up in firefox was to add the style directly to the image code. Can someone please help me. The link is www.medeaslair.net/myths.html. Here is the CSS Code:

Here is my first problem:- I have been trying to move our sitesdesign across to being css based and in the large part have succeeded but I have run into difficulties when it comes to displaying our results. I am trying to wrap 9 search results on a page using float but the results I am getting are different between mac IE 5.1, opera 5 Mac (not that bothered though) and Windows IE 6.0. My problem is that on windows the float works as it should and wraps so that I have a grid of 9 images, on a mac the images wrap but jump to the bottom of my left floated navigation and then continue the grid and on opera they just don't wrap. The URL is URL CSS file URL Can anybody shed any light on why this might happen as I am a little lost. TIA hanonman Hi, I'm having an interesting problem. I have a left floated containing div and then a right floated containing div to split multiple contents between the left and right side of a popup window. It works great in IE 7, Chrome, FF3, but for some reason not in FF2. In FF2, it forces the contents of the right floated containing div below the left floated div (instead of beside it) and makes it's width the entire width of the popup. Any idea why? (there is a reason I had to put all the css directly in the code - normally it's separated) Here's the code: Code:
<div style='padding: 15px; text-align: left;'>
<div style='float: left;'>
<table style='margin-top:16px; font-size: 12px; font-family: Verdana,Arial,sans-serif;'>

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 i have a parent container ('footer') where i have 2 child elements. the first ('feeds-techs') is floated right, while the second ('footer_text') is displayed inline to get its top border to display properly. 'feeds-techs' is taller that 'footer_text'. what i want is for the container to expand to the height of 'feeds-techs'. i accomplished this using the ":after" pseudo-element. i also want the inline element to rest at the bottom of the container (so that the bottoms of the 2 child elements are even). first, i tried to set the parent container to "vertical-align: bottom;" but to no avail. then, i attempted to use "clear: both;" on 'footer_text', but that didn't work in firefox (i'm assuming because it's an inline element) - it also didn't suit the display i wanted since 'footer_text" was then resting below 'feeds-techs'. i also attempted to use the ":before" pseudo-element on 'footer_text' and setting the height to 100%. still didn't work. then i tried to set the 'footer_text' to "margin-top: 100%;" - still nothing (actually, this caused the top border of 'footer_text' to disappear in ie -- ie sucks sooo bad >:-{ ). i'm wanting to steer clear of [x]html hacks, like a "<div class='clearboth'> </div>", because that's not very pure css and it doesn't suit my semi-obsessive-compulsive disorder. ;-) i'm sure there's a solution out there -- i'll be surprised if you can't solve this problem using pure css. if you would like to see the page in question and my code/stylesheets: page in question (view source for my xhtml) stylesheet (if, for some really odd reason, you need to see my other stylesheets, you'll see their location in the source of my xhtml - you should know where to look) any ideas? In Firefox, I've got a right div that is not repsonding to an auto width in FF. I am not a pro a CSS (yet ) and I hope that someone can give me the one line solution that I am missing. I've included a screen shot of the problem, any help is greatly appreciated. - K CSS Code Code:

Hi, I'm designing the following site: http://www.texasmocktrial.org if you click on the top menu in fire fox, you'll notice that the connector to the menu in the top left hand corner is not aligned properly. in IE, there is no problem. ironically, i originally designed this site for firefox and now i cant figure out what i did to cause this problem. here is the css & javascript file: http://www.texasmocktrial.org/templates/style.css http://www.texasmocktrial.org/templates/menu.js can anyone figure out what seems to be the problem? thanks. hi, I wonder if anyone can help with my layout problems in Firefox, i have tried to have vertically alignment on the whole page, its looks ok in IE but not FF. Im fairly new to CSS so if anyone can spot what i have done wrong that would be great link to layout here thanks I'm trying to do some positioning with CSS laying out borders for my website which are composed of images. ie....border_left.jpg and border_bottom.jpg. My style sheet looks like this. .border_image_left { position: absolute; top: 119px; left: 0px } .border_image_bottom { position: absolute; top: 719px; left: 0px } In my html I have code like this. <p class="border_image_left"><img src="img/left_border.jpg"></p> <p class="border_image_bottom"><img src="img/bottom_border.jpg"></p> however IE and Firefox are rendering it different Firefox shows more space than IE. Anyway to correct this issue. Or any other trick for laying out borders with using a table? Thanks I've been pulling out my hair trying to figure out what it is i'm doing wrong here. I've been messing with this code and trying different things, but can't seem to figure out what the problem is. One of my divs is not sized properly. Can someone take a quick look and see what it could be? I'd realyl appreciate it. Thanks! http://ritchie.acomp.usf.edu/~lamba/my2.html If you view my website http://jordanmeeter.com/index you'll see how the menu displays, and how it is supposed to appear. And then if you view the website in IE, you'll notice that there are grey boxes inbetween each menu item. What is causing this? Here is the HTML: Code: <div id="navcontainer">
<ul id="navlist">
<li><a href="#" title="One">One</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="Two">Two</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="Three">Three</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="Four">Four</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="Five">Five</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
And the CSS: Code: #navlist {
padding: 0 1px 1px;
margin-left: 0;
font: bold 12px Verdana, sans-serif;
background: gray;
width: 13em;
}
#navlist li {
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
border-top: 1px solid gray;
text-align: left;
}
#navlist li a {
display: block;
padding: 0.25em 0.5em 0.25em 0.75em;
border-left: 1em solid #38739D;
background: #616161;
text-decoration: none;
color: #A5D3EF;
}
#navlist li a:link { color: #A5D3EF; }

Hello, I'm having a slight issue with what I belive to be margins. In IE half the logo is being cut off and in firefox I have a grey area above the menu bar that shouldn't be there. I have checked both my css and xhtml both validated fine with out any warnings. I'm pretty new to CSS and this is starting to annoy me =\. **WARNING** The site is political in nature. Links to the code: h**p://www [.] dncreform [.] com / t / css / main.css h**p://www [.] dncreform [.] com / t / Thank You, William http://925-sterling-silver-jewelry....udes/header.php well this is my first proper CSS based site but i am having troubles with it. the problem is that in IE the div (main) starts near to the sidebar div, wheras in firefox it starts a bit further away! also at the moment the links at the bottom dont appear in IE but do in FF albeit little messed up. help please? look at URL in both IE and Firefox, and see the difference. It's really butchered in Firefox, and I REALLY don't see why.

The following page: http://temp.awebcompany.net/contact.php The left column ( #left) overlaps the page content (#middle). It all looks nice and clears properly in IE - which I found shocking as I was expecting the problem in IE not FF. Any ideas how to fix this? I have tried the following on #middle and also on #pagecontainer: #middle:after { content: "."; display: block; height: 0; clear: both; visibility:hidden; } Thanks, Vince im having trouble getting some elements to move off to the right side of my layout. it appears how i want in firefox but completly wrong in IE. id like the "new release" section to be on the upper right hand of the page right next to the news content. IE forces it down to the lower right for some reason. and also causes some other weird looking artifacts or something. i know you can see my style sheet from that site so ill post a portion of it here. im still pretty new to a lot of this soplease try to make any help relatively simple if possible here is the link to the page: http://spore.50megs.com/index.html Code: release-art {
border: 0;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 93px;
}
.release-info {
float: right;
margin: -70px 0 0 0;
padding: 0;
width: 145px;
}
#releases {
background: #bbbbb8 url('bg-pattern-content.gif') repeat;
margin: 0 0 0 auto;
padding: 0;
text-align: justify;
width: 245px;
}
#releases .release-category {
font-weight: bold;
}
#release-details {
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#releases li {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
I am using a <dl> list to render dates and titles for a press release page. I want to display the date first and then display the title on the same line next to the date. If the title needs to wrap to more than 1 line, it should not wrap below the date - its left margin should be consistent. Simple example: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<style type="text/css">
dl {
width: 100%;
}
dt, dd {
float: left;
margin: 5px;
}
</style>
</head>
<dl>
<dt>12.24.2006</dt>
<dd>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Morbi consectetuer cursus lacus. Nullam imperdiet diam sit amet dui. Suspendisse nonummy, ante ut pharetra vehicula, augue neque porta arcu, vel adipiscing lorem augue eu purus. Aenean vulputate pellentesque arcu.</dd>
</dl>
<body>
</body>
</html>
My problem is that with a long title that wraps to more than 1 line, Firefox is putting the <dd> on its own line - it will not float it next to the <dt> as it should. If you change the title to something shoter like Code: <dd>A ShortTitle</dd> It displays as it should. Any ideas why this is happening? I have just put my website live and it is running perfect in MS Explorer but in firefox and netscape the links at the bottom of the page are not working properly. Site URL is http://www.updatetechnology.ie here is the code i have for these links: <TD><span class="grey"><a href="copyright.htm">Copyright</a> | <a href="sitemap.htm">Sitemap</a> | <a href="links.htm">Links</a> </span></TD> and the corrseponding css class: .grey {font-family: Arial, Helvetica, san serif; font-size: 9pt; TEXT-DECORATION:NONE; COLOR:#ffffff; } .grey A{ COLOR:#ffffff; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, san serif; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; text-decoration: none; font-variant: normal; text-transform: none; } .grey A:HOVER{ COLOR:#000000; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, san serif; font-size: 9pt ;font-weight: bold; TEXT-DECORATION:none } .grey A:MOUSEOVER{ COLOR:#000000; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, san serif; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: bold; TEXT-DECORATION:NONE } In netscape when you roll over these links it is just keeping to the default site roll over colours whereas it should be set to the .grey class i defined.......... has anyone come across this before?? and if so is there a solution out there. Thanks I'm hoping I can get some guidance on why I can't get this popout menu to work! I used the code from this article to build a popout menu, but for some reason I can't get it to work in firefox. If you test their demo in Firefox but if you test mine, it looks great in Internet Explorer, but gets all messed up Firefox & Opera. If you save the page you will see there is a style sheet as well as a small Javascript file too. If someone could check over my code for me that would be great! I have been staring at it for hours and can't seem to find the problem! This is my first project using CSS styles to control something besides the usual things like fonts, etc. so go easy on me! Thanks in advance! Chelsea |
