CSS - Css Conflict With Bridged Cms And Forum
Hi, my CMS is bridged with a forum and the body background color from the CMS is overriding the forum css. I have similar issues with the p and td tags and perhaps more small stuff. How can I resolve the conflicts so I can set the forum styles independent of my Mambo template? Here is an example (body color issue)
CMS code: Code: body {
margin: 10px 0px 10px 0px;
padding: 0;
font: 101.5%/1.4em "Trebuchet MS", Tahoma, Verdana, Helvetica;
letter-spacing: normal;
background: #232323 url(../images/body_bg.png) repeat-x center top;
color: #999;}
Forum code: Code: body {
font: 90%/85% Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;
background: #666666;
margin: 0;
padding: 12px 0 4px 0;
}
Similar TutorialsHey guys, hit a problem with my div formatting in css. usig external style sheet with the two styles "header" and "regular". If i make the div class="regular" and then make the first line class="header" using the <a> tag without defining href (as it is not a link, and dont want it to be a paragraph). Then the content below the 1st line ends up superimposed over the 1st line. You understand what i mean? Hopefully this might be a common bug? Anyone know what is causing this? im using IE6.0 to check it for bugs. It is offline atm, as i am making it. but it can be made available if anyone needs to see it. Code: <div id="content" class="regular" style="top: 280px; background-color: F5DEB3; padding: 10px; padding-bottom: 0px;"> <a class="header">About New Zealand</a> <p>New Zealand is one of the most unique places in the world to dive. Its rich, nutrient-dense waters provide a home to a <a href="constructionpage.html" class="interlink">multitude</a> of exotic and amazing <a href="constructionpage.html" class="intralink">creatures.</a> Whilst many of the tropical wonders are summer visistors to our shores, there is an abundance of life all year round.</p> </div> Monkeewrench p.s sorry the code window is stuffed, first time using it, lol I've got a conflict and would appreciate a review. I'm trying to change to css forms. Looks fine in IE (majority of my site visitors), but Firefox throws the form below. I think it's in my column layouts, but I don't know how to get around it. To view: http://www.mtn.ncahec.org/aboutus/test.asp Base css is To view: http://www.mtn.ncahec.org/aboutus/base.css Think the culprit is: div.row { clear: both; padding-top: 10px; } div.row span.label { float: left; width: 25%; text-align: right; font-weight: bold; } div.row span.formw { float: right; width: 70%; text-align: left; } Thanks for any assistance. Hi Folks, I've created a new css skin for my asp.net storefront. Everything works as I'd like except that my content div keeps getting expanded beyond the barrier of the main wrapper. I think it's because of the tables that the storefront fills into the content div, but i'm not really sure. The problem only exists in IE. looks right in FF. If you look at this page in both IE and FF you can see the difference pinkgolftees.com/default.aspx?skinid=9 the main content area sticks out the right side and my max width of 500px seems to be ignored. Is there a way to control this with my stylesheet so I don't have to change the code for the storefront? is it in fact the tables that are causing my problem, or have I created an error somewhere else? thanks Mark Can someone look at this and see what my background is not appearing properly in Firefox? It only happens on my forum page that is the same page with the phpbb dropped into the middle. I am sure the css of phpbb is conflicting with my CSS for the web site. You will have to use a CSS browser plug in to view thee is just too much to post. Link to web site ...And for once firefox is the problem!

And the page in question is http://bif.dmsbdesign.com/WWA.html Also anyone have the name of a good css book I can pick up? I have a header where I have two different div's that need to sit opposite each other on the same line (one aligned right and the other left). I used a float since it was the simplest way to get the job done. But in the div floating right I have three hyperlinks that have borders. When I float the div the border on the top and bottom dissappear when I remove the float the border on the top and bototm re-appear. any ideas? Here's the CSS... It's raw as I'm still developing these sections. Code:
#headerRight
{
float: right;
}
#headerLeft
{
float: left;
}
#header a:link
{
border: #000 solid 1px;
text-decoration: none;
}
#header a:active
{
border: #000 solid 1px;
text-decoration: none;
}
#header a:hover
{
border: #000 solid 1px;
text-decoration: none;
background-color: #333;
color: #ffffff;
}
#header a:visited
{
border: #000 solid 1px;
text-decoration: none;
}
I'm using IE7 (becuase my company demands it) and I have the following code 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"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <title></title> <body> <form> <input name='reason' type='text' size='75' value='' style='border:none;'/> </form> </body> </html> and it shows a border in my input even though there's a 'border:none;' but when I remove the Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> The border dissapears! Is there a different doctype that I'm supposed to be using here? Hi, I'm trying to get top both corners of my table header row to have a rounded corner each, but only one is appearing. The HTML is: Code: <tr> <td width="12%" class="tbl-col cnr-tl">Col 1</td> <td width="20%" class="tbl-col">Col 2</td> <td width="20%" class="tbl-col">Col 3</td> <td width="30%" class="tbl-col">Col 4</td> <td width="12%" class="tbl-col cnr-tr">Col 5</td> </tr> and the css is: Code:
.tbl-col {
background-color : #FFDA99;
color : #C00000;
font-size : 15px;
font-style : italic;
font-weight : bold;
height : 25px;
text-align : center;
}
.cnr-tl {
border-top-left-radius : 10px;
-moz-border-radius-topleft : 10px;
-webkit-border-top-left-radius : 10px;
}
.cnr-tr {
border-top-right-radius : 10px;
-moz-border-radius-topright : 10px;
-webkit-border-top-right-radius : 10px;
}
When the styles are in this order, the right hand column has a rounded corner, but if you swap the order of .cnr-tl and .cnr-tr, the left hand column has a rounded corner, but I can't get both end columns to have rounded corners at the same time. Putting both corner styles on one column does work, though, but I'd like to have both end columns to have rounded corners and the middle columns to have straight corners. Does anyone know how to do this? Debbie Hey All, I am modifying a wordpress template and have increased the size of the right side bar.

Is there something obvious here that causes the issue? Many Thanks dale littleredplanet Hello everyone, I'm working on a word press design for my site and I'm having some problems with absolute positioning. The positioning is fine in and of itself but I've found that if the absolute positioned element is underneath a link, it voids out the link. The text for the link is there, just no link. I've tested this by removing the absolute positioned element and the links work fine after I do that. Any idea what's going on with this? This occurs in both Firefox and IE. I've validated the CSS as CSS 2.1. You can see what I'm talking about at my site randomdamage dot org (the forum wouldn't let me post the link) If you scroll to the bottom of the page you can see two links which are being affected, the comments link for the last post and the next page link. The absolute element is the red splatter graphic. Here's the relevant css: /*footer styles*/ #footer blockquote { background-image: url(images/splash.png); width: 850px; height: 100px; position: absolute; left: 5px; background-repeat: no-repeat; bottom: 63px; text-indent: -9999px; z-index:9;} #footer { clear:both; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif; padding-right: 20px; padding-left: 20px; padding-top: 20px; } #footer p { text-align:center; font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; padding-top: 10px; padding-bottom: 40px; } Any help would be greatly appreciated. my pages have the following structure, which you can see in action at http://www.auroratheatre.org: Code: <body>
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="header">
header
</div>
<div id="content">
<div id="col"> left nav </div>
<div id="main"> main center column </div>
<div id="photocol"> right column </div>
</div>
<div id="footer">

margin-right: 10px;
margin-bottom: 30px;
text-align: left;

#photocol {
width: 220px;

This works well for compliant browsers, centering the content on the screen and putting the footer at the bottom of the viewport even if the content isn't long. This is what I want. The trouble is, in IE 5.0 it doesn't center the content, just the background, and everything is thrown to hell. A little scratching around revealed that if you want to center a div in IE 5.0, you need to use text-align: center. OK, but if I DO that, and add a text-align: center to the #wrapper div, then everything is OK in IE 5.0 and Mozilla, but NOT IE 6.0 - modern IE browsers do a weird thing of putting the footer to right of all the content, making the page scroll horizontally, which is ugly as hell. If I remove the position: absolute from the #footer div than that problem goes away, but the footer sits at the bottom of the content, not the viewport, and pages with short content look bad. Anyone know of a way to have it all ways? Centered content and absolute footer and happy IE 5.0? Thanks, -D Am hoping someone knows the deal here... I'm setting up a site where html skins feed into PHP to generate the final pages. It's very simple; just header, footer and main.html's for the index page. The problem: A DIV to the left of the main body holds a no-repeat background [to place an image in that area]. I want a slight overlap with the main body div; alas the second div contains links, and with even the slightest overlap of these 2 divs, the links go funky ~ you can't select them. I tried z-indexing it to no avail Does anyone know if there's a route around this conflict? The page: (URL address blocked: See forum rules) [koff. am just kicking it of layout wise, so do excuse the lack of actual content!] thanks for any help [hopey hopey] Hi im trying to detect ie or mozilla but i cant get it to work.. could somebody please tell me what is wrong with my code.. thanx in advance !!!

With all the hype these days about finally meeting CSS specs and designing without tables, I think this topic needs more focus. What do you think? Hello all - I am trying to implement tabs to my forum, I currently have some on there but I like the looks better of the new ones that I am trying to get going. I find that when I get them working (using additional CSS as well as navbar/header edit) it will not work in all browsers. If I post the CSS as well as the navbar/header code would you be able to help me track down my issue? EDIT - I was going to post screenshots but was not permitted I would like to post on another forum with CSS. Is there any way to do this? I already have the content laid out with css in my html editor and just wanna transfer it to a forum as a forum post. I suspect forums don't allow css so just wondering if there's a way around this. Appreciate the help, JH CSS Forum Posting Guidelines Some very important things to keep in mind before you post your question: Note that if it appears you haven't read this, we're most likely just going to point you to it.

USE YOUR RESOURCES As with all forums, there's a pretty good chance your question has already been answered... but css being what it is, you may not know exactly what you are looking for. Have a look at the resources sticky, or try searching for your problem. BE DESCRIPTIVE Spell it out for us. What do you think it should look like, what does it look like now, what is it not doing "right"... It's amazing (I'm guilty too) how many people post a "Have a look at this, how do I fix it?", but they don't tell us what it's supposed to look like. PROVIDE EXAMPLES Give us a link, or paste your code... we can't read minds, especially through the net. If you are providing a link to your page, make it an actual link using the bbcode tags, rather than just pasting the URL. If your css isn't embedded or inline, provide a link to it too, or paste it if it's not too big. USE A DESCRIPTIVE TOPIC NAME Topics which are simply... CSS Problem Please Help IE not working! Won't get many responses, try and come up with something a little more descriptive... Getting rid of space around floated divs in IE My footer won't stay at the bottom By the way, these are examples of problems that can be searched for... ALL PROBLEMS, BIG and SMALL Remember that the C in CSS stands for cascading, upper level elements have an effect on the lower level elements... If you have a large css sheet and a lot of code on your site, and one thing isn't working the way it should, chances are something else is interfering... try simplifying your code and see if it will work that way... An old debugging technique is to break it down into smaller portions in order to isolate the problem... Mod edit: Stickied, locked and posts removed. If anyone has anything they'd like to add to this guide, please feel free to PM me and I'll add it if needed. Thanks, Jon. Hello! First post here. I'm having a little problem with the my forums and I can't find the problem in the CSS. I was wondering if anyone here had some tips or a solution; It seems longer topic titles seem to effect how squished up the posters posts are; they get squished and pushed up to the right. I'm out of ideas and need some help. If you check any of the other posts on the forum with smaller titles, you'll notice that the posts are fine. It is definately something to do with large topic titles.. Any help would be appreciated. I have a layout that has text in a left div and the form input in the right. I want the form input to be 100% width of DIV.standard_field_right not 100% width of the entire page. Can someone give me a hint please. CSS and XHTML below: PHP Code: DIV.standard_field_container { width: 98%; padding: 0.4em; border: 1px solid #8B8B8B; background-color: #E2E2E2; overflow: hidden; } DIV.standard_field_left { width: 10em; float: left; margin-right: 5em; font: bold 0.8em Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; } DIV.standard_field_right { font: normal 0.8em Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; } SPAN.standard_field_type_info { font-weight: normal; color: #ff0000; border-bottom: 1px dashed #ff0000; cursor: help; } INPUT.input_text_field { width: 30em; } XHTML: PHP Code: <div class="standard_field_container"> <div class="standard_field_left"> <span class="standard_field_name"><?php echo $field_definition[1]; ?></span> <span class="standard_field_type_info" title="<?php echo $field_definition[7]; ?>">Information</span> </div> <div class="standard_field_right"> <span class="standard_field_input_area"><input name="<?php echo $field_definition[0]; ?>" type="text" id="<?php echo $field_definition[0]; ?>" maxlength="<?php echo $field_definition[10]; ?>"<?php if ($value_applies == '1') { ?> value="<?php echo $row["$field_definition[0]"]; ?>" <?php } ?> class="input_text_field" /></span> </div> </div> |
