CSS - Fixed Old Problem But Has Another One Now!

I've mocked up a page using 960.gs that has has several elements fixed in a div under which the content of the of the page is to flow. The background of this div is a CSS gradient, and has a height of 100% (if the gradient is applied to to the actual body of the page it doesn't actually extend the whole width of the page). As the user scrolls up, the content is to be viewable behind an opaque menu.

The layout works as I want in FF and Chrome, but the content of the page scrolls over the fixed upper area in IE7.

I understand that a new stacking context is being created, but I've been unable to resolve this by fiddling with the z-index of the elements in question, or their parents. I know I can consolidate some of the extra divs used by the grid, but I've been unable to do so in a way that keeps the gradient and transparency effects.

How can I achieve this look in IE7?

I'm really tired, so this may be a dumb question. I'm having problems keeping thumbnails fixed in their position. I want them to have a 1px yellow border when I hover over them. I can get the border but when I hover over them the other images move slightly. I have the thumbnails set up inside a <ul>. Here's the pertinent CSS:

Code:

#thumbcontainer {
		
			margin-left: auto;
			margin-right: auto;
			margin-top: 10px;
			margin-bottom: 0px;
			padding: 10px 10px 0px 0px;
			width: 840px;
			background-color: #000000;
	
		}
			
		a img {   
           			 border: none;
            			margin: 4px 4px 10px 4px;
        		   }
		
		a img: link  {
			border: 1px solid #000000;
			
			}

		a img: visited {
			border: 1px solid #000000;
			}

		a img:hover { 
			border: 1px solid #e5cb43;   
			}
	
		a img: active {
			border: 1px solid #000000;

			}

		ul.content   {
			list-style-position: outside; 
			padding: 0px; margin: 0px;
			border: none;
			background-color: #000000;
			width: 850px;
			text-align: center;
			
		}

		li.content  {
			margin: 0px;
			padding: 0px;
			list-style-type:none;
			
		}

What are my options? Thanks in advance!

Hello all, still a little new to css layout problem-shooting in older browsers, so thanks for your help in advance!

I'm having a problem which is only occurring in Internet Explorer 6, but I just can seem to figure out what's wrong.


if you look at the page in any other browser, you can see the header <div> stretches the width: 100%, but in IE6, the header <div> does not extend all the way to the left, but rather starts where the margin:auto Main <div> tag starts from the left side.

What I am lost on is that the footer <div> performs this just fine, but it's position is not fixed and there is no z-index. here is the code for both, and thanks again for having a look:

#header {
width: 100%;
height: 107px;
display: block;
position: fixed;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
background-color: #000000;
background-image: url(../images/main/bhs_design_header_gradient.jpg);
z-index: 100;

}

#footer {
width: 100%;
height: 35px;
display: block;
background-color:#000000;
margin-top: 10px;
clear: both;
text-align: center;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
font-weight: bold;
color: #EBEAE8;
margin: 0px;
background-image: url(../images/main/bhs_design_footer_gradient.jpg);
}

How can I fix a Div a set distance below another Div without a set height?

Hi folks,

I'm working on a website at the moment and having some issues 'fixing it' for Internet Explorer. The design scrolls horizontally, and using 'position:fixed;' on certain elements keeps them on the page while the rest scrolls - this works fine in Safari / Camino / Firefox etc. but as we know position:fixed; is broken in IE.

I tried applying the fix found at http://web.tampabay.rr.com/bmerkey/...tion-fixed.html but this only seems to work for regular vertical scrolling pages - when scrolled horizontally the "fixed" elements still scroll with the page.

Is there any way possible to get this to work? I really really want to avoid any of those javascript "jumpy" scripts to reposition the element all the time. Thanks all.

Hi all,

I need some help. I have implemented a fixed header on my site, but certain content is scrolling above the header while other is scrolling behind. I would like it all to scroll behind the fixed div's.

I'm trying to construct a complex 3-column CSS layout.
I would like the center column to be fixed-width, and the outer columns to split the remainder of the document's width.
All 3 columns should be able to contain centered or floated block elements and accept mouse events.

Currently, I have approached this problem two nearly-successful ways. The first was to float the outer columns, but then I have no way to make them fill out. The second was to float the outer columns, then set them both to 50% with the appropriate margin set to half the width of the center column, but then I lose mouse event support in the center column because of the margins.

The relevant CSS follows: Code:

html { height: 100%; width: 100%; }
body { margin: 0; height: 100%; width: 100%; }
#left {
  float: left;
  height: 100%;
  /* 2nd attempt
  width: 50%;
  margin-right: 305px; */
}
#right {
  float: right;
  height: 100%;
  /* 2nd attempt
  width: 50%;
  margin-left: 305px; */
}
#center {
  margin: auto;
  height: 100%;
  width: 610px;
}

HTML-wise, the div order is #left, #right, #center.

Does anyone know of a way to work around this?

Hi all,

</div>

Hi! I'm new here, so I'd like to greet everyone first.

Secondly.. I have a minor problem with my test webpage. I'm not an expert in CSS, but I did manage to sort-of make my own web template and all. Now the problem is that with resolution smaller than 1024*768 main frame of the page (post frame - blog) jumps over the sidebar. Here's the webpage so you can see for yourselves what my problem is.
I want it to be fixed in browser (as in "when I resize the browser window, the whole layout says fixed and I need to scroll to see the very right end of it"), but don't know how to do that. Any help, please?

The whole template is still under construction.. and the webpage is just a test page. The real page is elsewhere waiting to get the new template.

hi

I have a page which has the top menu section fixed (using CSS), and the remainder of the page can be scrolled ... i.e. there are no frames.

However the code below works well in firefox, but not IE.

Could anyone please help make the code the work in IE (and all other major browsers).

cheers
nathan

here's the code:

Code:

<!--[if IE 6]>

The link below shows the fixed positioning layout I need to achieve, but rather than have the scrolling content fixed to the left or right hand side I want to have it centered with the navigation fixed and just to the left of the scrolling content. Like the image below:

http://limpid.nl/lab/css/fixed/header



Is this possible? Thanks

Does such a thing exist? I have seen various examples and tried more than one, and every time I either end up with a right margin when the page is not long enough to scroll, or I end up with a horizontal scroll bar when the page is scrolling.

All I want is a fixed position footer (at the bottom of the viewport permanently) where the page content scrolls vertically behind it without any gaps

i am trying to do this example here

w3schools.c0m/css/tryit.asp?filename=trycss_position_fixed

the o, in .com has been changed to 0 so i could post. sorry

the text " Some more text "

I wish to had dead center on the right side of the page, not near the top like that,

mainly, i wish to put two more lines of text just under it as well, all being dead center of the page, on the right, i cannot figure it out, any help please?

Please look at
http://www.mailhorde.com/scripts.php
and
http://www.mailhorde.com/

You will see what i mean. THe navigation bar is being stretched down. I have the top image in a table cell of its own.

Is there any CSS that will stop this from happening?


Thanks,
Andrew

I'm attempting to use the Declaration of Independence as the background for my site. It is much longer than wide, but I want to display all of it. So I want the background to stop scrolling when the bottom of the image is reached at the bottom of the browser window while still allowing content to scroll on top of it. I have seen this done with a completely fixed background, but not with a partially scrolling background. Does anyone know how, or even if, this can be done?
