CSS - Table Positioning
I have an HTML table and I am trying to use a CSS repeating vertical background for part of the table.
It looks fine, but there is some small spacing that appears in IE (Not in Firefox) between image "links_background_top.png" and the div element. There is no spacing between the div element and the bottom image "links_background_bottom.png" Any ideas why this is and how to fix this? Thanks, Luis Code:
<html>
<head>
<style>
#links_background_repeat { background-image: url(links_background_repeat.png); background-repeat: repeat-y; height: 4px; width: 705px; border-width: 0px; margin: 0px; top-margin:0px; bottom-margin:0px; padding: 0px;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" vspace="0" hspace="0">
<tr>
<td>
<img src="links_background_top.png" width="705" height="37" hspace="0" vspace="0" border="0" />
<div id="links_background_repeat">blah blah blah<BR />blah blah blah</div>
<img vspace="0" hspace="0" src="links_background_bottom.png" width="705" height="18" border="0" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>

Similar TutorialsI have a dynamic table that is in the cell of another table. For the life of me I cant get it to stick to the top of the cell. It wants to sit at the midline of it vertically. Thanks for reading. After much trial and error, I have the following: Code:
<form>
<div1>
<table1>
</table>
<table2>
</table>
<table3>
</table>
</div>
<div2>
<table4>
</table>
<table5>
</table>
<table6>
</table>
</div>
</form>
div1 is has relative positioning and a bottom margin of 50px. All tables have a bottom margin keeping them apart. Regardless of how many tables there are in div1, div2 is always 50px below it. All tables in Div1 and the first table in div2 are generated by the system, subsequent tables in div2 are generated by the user clicking a button. If the user creates a new table, how do I position below table1? Will any newly created tables automatically appear below the bottom table in div2? Any guidance on this would be great. Hi, Have a problem with a left-hand table, the content of which is dragged down the page when the right-hand table grows in the same direction, say when filling it with content. I need to anchor that left-hand table in place but allow the right-hand table to stretch vertically. Have tried absolute CSS positioning, spacers, extra tables, 100% height - nothing seems to work. I've simplified the HTML code for readability, but the general layout is pretty much intact: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>Untitled Document</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> </head> <body> <table width="668" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td height="49" colspan="2" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td width="667" height="49"> </td> </tr> </table></td> <td width="1"></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="147" rowspan="3" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td width="147" height="147"> </td> </tr> </table></td> <td width="520" height="32" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td width="520" height="32"> </td> </tr> </table></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="24" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td width="520" height="24"> </td> </tr> </table></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr> <td rowspan="2" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td width="517" height="419" valign="top"><div align="center">RIGHT-HAND TABLE </div></td> </tr> </table></td> <td height="91"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="328" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td width="146" height="328" valign="top"><div align="center">LEFT-HAND TABLE </div></td> </tr> </table></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="482"> </td> <td> </td> <td></td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> Thanks, Dyb When i use the css to position an table absoultly it "breaks apart" the table. I tried placing the style in the <table> tag and in a <div> wrapped around the table. If anyone knows how to fix this let me know. I just tried it in internet explorer and it looks good. so it is only breaking apart in firefox Here is the css class I am using. .nav { position: absolute; top: 70px; left: 770px; z-index: 5; } Thanks for any help Hi everyone- I'm a rank beginner at CSS and am trying to figure out the whole positioning thing -- you know, the stuff that was generally a no-brainer using tables back in the day. :-) For learning purposes, I'm trying to do this with only CSS and no tables. So, here's my problem. I'm creating a simple two-row layout. The first row contains two columns, and the second/bottom row contains only one. I'm trying to make sure the bottom row always remains below the longest of the two columns in the row above it. With the code below, I can cut text from the left column and the bottom row maintains position. If I cut from the right, however, the bottom row moves up and is partially hidden under the left column. I've tried using both absolute and relative positioning for the bottomRow DIV, but no luck. I'm sure this is probably something simple that I'm just not getting. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance... - Tom Tedeschi Code:

I am trying to set a table to sit on the bottom of the browser at all times, like a hovered BG image. Anyone know how to do this? I've tried this but I obliviously don't know what i'm doing #grass { position:absolute; bottom:100% background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: 0px -0px; } (it's a landscaping website, i want grass on the bottom on the screen) Hello, I am very new to CSS, having only used stylesheets for basic formatting of text, etc. I have created a site where the layout is based on tables (I know ... when I have spare time, I will start learning CSS for this). I have a main table with 1 row and 1 column, height 95%, width 100%. Within this I have a table with a fixed layout (set height, width) for the table elements. This table is centre and middle aligned. Unfortunately the text provided for one of the cells in the table is exceeding the amount expected and the cell height has increased to accommodate for this. I thought of creating a layer and placing it over the cell and inserting the text here and setting the overflow to scroll. However, depending on screen resolution, browser the layer is not always positioned where I want it. Can I somehow position the layer relative to the table cell ? If not, do you have any suggestions as to what I can do to fix this. I do not have the option to rewrite the site using CSS, due to deadlines. Thanks in advance for your help. Bea I'm trying to vertically align two divs inside a table cell. I have the cell's vertical-align property set to text-top because I want the first div to be aligned at the top of the td but I can't, no matter what I try, get the second div to align to the bottom. Is there a better way to accomplish this without nesting tables or is this the right way and I'm just missing something? I want to set up a table so that error messages appear directly above specific table columns in the form of a div tag with a red background and the same width as the column. To do this I've added a div tag inside the <th> element of the table, with the display property set to 'none'. Code: <th> <nobr>Header Content</nobr> <div id="error_message">Error Message</div> </th> When I want to display an error message above the table I use the following styles on the div tag Code:
background-color: #ffcccc;
width: 100%;
position: relative;
left: 0px;
top: -100px;
z-index: 1;
display: block;
It displays the div tag above the header like I want, but it still stretches the height of the <th> element as if it was still contained inside of it. How do I do this without stretching the cell height? I have a positioning puzzle for you. It's as part of a web design assignment, so broad accessibility is not required. even working on IE is not required. YES! here is the problem, explained by means of an image. because a picture speaks a thousand words. so they say. [IMG](URL address blocked: See forum rules)[/IMG] Any assistance or suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance. Hello, I recently started creating websites again and I have been pulling my hair out on this Firefox compatibility issue. The site navigation looks great in IE but in Firefox a couple of the background images are skewed down and to the left. Since all my tricks from years ago are so outdated now, I decided to try CSS for a simplified navigation setup. The code is probably pretty messy since I chopped it together from numerous sources and still am not completely sure how it works. Background: I created a large 794x1200 PNG image that contains two complete border and navigation sets. I am using CSS to both position the appropriate portion in each table/cell as well as switching to a slice on the 2nd image set for rollover purposes. An example of the current test is he (URL address blocked: See forum rules) *not sure if this is okay but would be best to see the example. If it is not allowed as a non-clickable then feel free to delete. It is here - classtime . org / test6 . htm and the navigation image is he (URL address blocked: See forum rules) *classtime . org / navigate . png I would be eternally grateful to anyone that can help me figure out why the site works great in IE but is coming up skewed in Firefox. As a side note, when I pull up the site in Frontpage, it shows the left-most cell as being larger than it is supposed to be even though it is hardcoded. To get my left image bar to show up in the correct place I had to use a value of "left: -40px;" I'm not sure why that is but I suspect it has something to do with the problem. Thank you very much for taking a look. My jumbled code is as follows: Code:

Hi, I have centered a table horizontally and vertically. To do this I put a table inside a table. so i don't want to use absolute positioning, as the position would change if the window size changes... My problem, with relative positioning, is that I can't figure out how to put my "some text" over an image -which is inside the table cell- in the exact position i want, without "collateral damage"... The collateral damage is that if I put the <div> tag inside the table (see example 1), it will occupy the space and as result the image wll be moved down and layout won't be centered vertically anymore... If I put the <div> tag outside the table (see example 2), as result there will be more occupied space at the top, and the layout isn't centered anymore... Here you can see the code i used for both example 1 and example 2: example 1: <html> <head> <title>relative problem - example 1</title> </head> <body> <table width="100%" height=100% border="1"> <tr> <td width="100%" height="100%" align="center" valign="middle"> <table border=1> <tr> <td width="640" height="480"> <div id="Layer1" style="position:relative; left:50px; top:50px; width:50px; height:200px; text-align:left; overflow: auto; z-index:1;"> some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some text </div> <img src="http://www.pbworks.net/images/help.jpg" width="640" height="480"> </td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> example 2: <html> <head> <title>relative problem - example 2</title> </head> <body> <table width="100%" height=100% border="1"> <tr> <td width="100%" height="100%" align="center" valign="middle"> <div id="Layer1" style="position:relative; left:0px; top:200px; width:50px; height:200px; text-align:left; overflow: auto; z-index:1;"> some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some text </div> <table border=1> <tr> <td width="640" height="480"> <img src="http://www.pbworks.net/images/help.jpg" width="640" height="480"> </td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> thx for letting me know... I am desperate. I think I found a bug in Firefox, and I'm not sure how to work around it. The following code works in everything (IE 8, Chrome, Safari, Opera) except Firefox (version 3.6.3). Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug in Firefox? You can look what happens to the drop-down menu's on Menu 2 and 3 live by going to my site (deenfoxx dot com slash firefox-bug dot html). css Code: Original - css Code #main-nav { background-color: black; height: 40px; } #nav { position: relative; margin: 0; padding: 0; } #nav li { position: relative; float: left; display: table; width: 99px; height: 40px; border-right: 1px solid white; text-align: center; font-size: 10px; } #nav li:hover { background-color: darkred; } #nav a { display: table-cell; vertical-align: middle; line-height: 11px; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; color: #fff; } #nav li ul { position: absolute; padding: 0; background-color: gray; top: 40px; left: 0px; } #nav li ul li { width: 98px; border: 0; border-top: 1px solid white; } #main-nav html4strict Code: Original - html4strict Code <div id="main-nav"> <ul id="nav"> <li id="m1"><a href="#1">Main Menu 1</a></li> <li> <a href="#2">Main Menu 2</a> <ul> <li><a href="#2a">Sub-Category 1</a></li> <li><a href="#2b">Sub-Category<br/>with multiple lines</a></li> </ul> </li> <li> <a href="#3">Main Menu 3 with multiple lines</a> <ul> <li><a href="#3a">Sub-Category 2</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="#4">Main Menu item which has a really long name on it</a></li> </ul> </div> <div id="main-nav"> The problem appears to be that "#nav li" happens to have position:relative; and a display:table; and "#nav li ul" is position:absolute;. Normally, absolute positioning requires its parent or ancestor position to be set, but when used with the table display, it doesn't work normally on Firefox--but it does on other browsers. Can someone help me with a workaround that does not involve altering the HTML? If I must, I will accept a workaround that requires changing the HTML, but I'll have to do some heavy duty recoding of Magento's core menu generation. Anyone that knows Magento knows I want to avoid that like the plague--my example is a very simplified version of the problem. I have problem with footer DIV in this layout (the order of DIV's in code after <body> should be - content, left, right, right2, header, footer - positioned centraly with fixed values): It needs to be sticked to fit after content of 4 column DIV's like it is in example. http://www.split.info/dev/less-content/ http://www.split.info/dev/more-content/ Code:

Current issue like it is in this layout happens that if you add more data f.i. in content area (outside one screen), it will go trough footer... So in your resolution footer can be also moved in code after rightpane2 DIV, after end of wrapper. Pls help. Thx! Echo I have a textarea in a <td>which asks for users for some description. If users enter text and don't use any space or enter, the width of the table gets bigger and bigger and damages the pages design. What can I add (to td.fixed_width css for example )to make the line break after the width of the table is reached??? There is a solution that I put a div in td and then Code: #desc {
width:"100%";
width::fixed;
overflow:scroll;}
but it is not exactly what I want hi every one... How can I display static headers in a table, so that headers remain visible while user scrolls the table body? This is not working in IE 7 any working example please 2. iam having a column which holds data around some 100 to 200 characters... by default i want to display some 50 characters and rest of the characters can be viewed by moving the column... if this is possible let me know how to do it with some sample code......i dont know much about CSS 3. One more problem iam facing is with the number of columns displayed in the table. I have to display around 15 to 20 columns in a table... with this 15 to 20 columns in a table, i can see scrollbar to the page ....but i dont want scrollbar to the page, instead i want want scroll bar to the table (so that it doesnot effect the design of the page) I need a fixed table width and height and also fixed column width and height..... Note: I dont mind if columns are not visible (thru scrool bar i should see the hide columns) Alright, this is probably a simple fix but I can not find the solution anywhere. I'm trying to highlight a table cell with a 2px solid red border when it is clicked. Is there a way to get this to happen with out changing the size of the cell? I hope this makes sense. Basically the cell is expanding by 1 px causing movement in the table. I'm trying to get a table inside another table which completely fills the parent table, but I cannot get it to work. The simple piece of code illustrates my problem. The red table is inside the blue table but does not cover the entire cell from top to bottom, but only the centre. I want this table to be streched. Obviously height: 100% doesn't work. Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<body>
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
1<br>2<br>3<br>4<br>5<br>
</td>
<td style="background: blue;">
<table style="height: 100%; background: red;">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="vertical-align: bottom">
Test
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</body>
</html>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, Not exactly sure where to post this question... but: I'm having a bit of trouble keeping a table at a fixed height. What I have is a Small 200x80px table above my an input form. As users type data into the input form, javascript code dynamically updates the contents of the table. I have the table width properly fixed, and the input fields have character limitations... however if a user inputs a lot of capital letters or other wide characters, the table automatically increases in height when the text wraps. It's pretty much necessary that the text wraps for the middle lines of the table, and on the other two lines I have used the javascript to remove wrapping, but I never want the table to grow longer than 80px no matter how much is typed in the fields. Is there a way that I can constrain the table height? Thanks in advance! |
