CSS - Page Doesn't Look Right
I downloaded a free layout and started using it for my club's website. After finishing several pages, I uploaded it to the school's server. However, I realized that after publishing it, the layout does not look right. It is supposed to look like this (I had to insert spaces to get around no URL postings for newbs) https:// netfiles.uiuc. edu/ro/www/Collegiate4HClub/~26/howitssupposedtolook.jpg
Unfortunately, it looks like this https:// netfiles.uiuc. edu/ro/www/Collegiate4HClub/~26/index.html As you can see, there are several layout issues. First, the background color inside the white border is not the lighter green color. Also, the border is missing on the right hand side. If anyone can shed some light on this issue, I would greatly appreciate it! In case you can't pull up the CSS document, it is https:// netfiles.uiuc. edu/ro/www/Collegiate4HClub/~26/FlexibleGreen.css Similar Tutorialsalright I'm stumped so please please please help me out! I have a page that's 100% in height, and usually there's more information so you have to scroll down. but I can't seem to activate the scrollbar. I've tried overflow, messing with the height attribute, i have no idea how to solve this. my page: http://www.aapinboom.nl/luxeduinvil...ntroductie.html and this is the code: Code: html,body { background-image: url('../images/bg.gif'); margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; font-size: 13px; height: 100%; } #center { text-align: center; width: 100%; height: 100%; } #container { margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; width: 600px; height: 100%; border: 1px solid #B8B8B8; background-color: #FFFFFF; text-align: left; } thanks for any suggestions! Hi, I am in the process of migrating a web site over on to a new platform. The old web page had an in text translation feature which I am wanting to keep but just tweek slightly. The original page has the turkish translation appear on the right and the english translation appear on the let each expanding to about 80% of the page when clicked on. Original Website web .archive.org/web/20080719023530/cat .une.edu.au/page/acemhoyuk This is a link to the original site using Wayback Machine and you can see from the moment the page loads both translations are visible. What I am wanting to do is keep the minimised translations to the one side and the bulk of the text to the other to eliminate the inertia that comes with constantly moving your focus from one side of the page to the other. I have done this by changing this bit of css code: .page_language_a .bilingual .language_a, .page_language_b .bilingual .language_b { position: static; margin: 0 20% 0 0; padding: 0 1.5em 0 0; text-align:left; border-right:1px solid #ccc; } .page_language_b .bilingual .language_b { margin: 0 0 0 20%; padding: 0 0 0 1.5em; border-left:1px solid #ccc; border-right: none; } to .page_language_a .bilingual .language_a, .page_language_b .bilingual .language_b { position: static; margin: 0 20% 0 0; padding: 0 1.5em 0 0; text-align:left; border-right:1px solid #ccc; } .page_language_b .bilingual .language_b { margin: 0 20% 0 0; padding: 0 1.5em 0 0; text-align:left; border-right:1px solid #ccc; } This simple change in the code seems to have worked for the most part and everything lines up fine except that it is not initially visible. When you first navigate to the page both translation appear as the body of the text one after each other. It is not until you click the mouse in the body of the text that you see the css doing what it is meant to and the translation appear on the right. New website www .une.edu .au/cat/sites/Acemhoyuk .php I am a relative novice with css but I can 'read' the code and I have gone through it, experimenting with changing different aspect of it but I can't find any solution to my problem. Could someone please help me figure out a solution to this issue as I want both the text and the translation to appear at the same time on the screen from the moment it loads not just after a mouse click. Kim I use the same css for all page, but one of them doesn't show sidebar and push down the footer about 100px Code: http://elsoszabadmagyarkormany.com/torveny-szavazasok/ Anybody can help me? OK, So I have put together what I thought was a reasonably basic xhtml page outline. I'm using a Win2k box. I checked it in Opera 7 and IE6 and it looks fine (more or less). I've also validated the xhtml and css codes. However, when I look at the page in Netscape 7.1 or Firefox, the menu kind of hangs a bit in limbo. Otherwise the rest of the page render's fine. I've included my code below. Does anyone have any suggestions since it's likely that if it doesn't work in Netscape/Firefox, it won't work in many other browsers either. Thanks! Shawn PS I'm not saying there is anything wrong with Firefox/Netscape, but likely my code URL: http://www.raisetheratesottawa.org/xhtml/ ===== CSS ===== HTML { PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; MARGIN-TOP: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #FF99CC; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 20px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; COLOR: #000000; PADDING-TOP: 0px } BODY { PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; MARGIN-TOP: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #FF99CC; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 20px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; COLOR: #000000; PADDING-TOP: 0px } #upper { width:700px; margin:0px auto; text-align:left; padding: 0px; border: 5px solid #FFFFFF; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #000000; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; MARGIN-TOP: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 10px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; PADDING-TOP: 0px } /* Horizontal nav */ #menu { width:700px; margin:0px auto; padding: 0; } #menu ul { border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style-type: none; text-align: center; clear: left; } #menu ul li { display: block; float: left; text-align: center; padding: 0; margin: 0; } #menu ul li a { background: #000000; width: 175px; /* was 'height: 2em; */ height: 24px; padding: 0; /* was 'margin: 0 0 10px 0; ' this affects the margin between upper menus*/ margin: 0 0 0 0; color: #FF0000; text-decoration: none; display: block; text-align: center; font-weight: bold; letter-spacing: 1px; /* was 'line-height: 2em; */ line-height: 24px; /* was 'font-size: x-small; ' */ font-size: 10px; font-size: 10px; /* was 'FONT: 8px Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;*/ } #menu ul li#one { width: 46px; } #menu ul li#two a { width: 154px; } #menu ul li#three a { width: 105px; } #menu ul li#four a { width: 85px; } #menu ul li#five a { width: 56px; } #menu ul li#six a { width: 57px; } #menu ul li#seven { width: 147px; } #menu ul li a:hover { color: #000000; background: #FF0000; } #menu a:active { background: #c60; color: #fff; } #content { width:700px; margin:0px auto; text-align:left; padding:0px; border:5px solid #FFFFFF; background: url(/xhtml/graph/rtr-logo-bk.gif) #FF99CC; } ====== XHTML ====== <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title>Test</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="graph/rtrcss2.css" type="text/css" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-us" /> <meta name="ROBOTS" content="No Index" /> <meta name="Copyright" content="Copyright (c) 2004" /> <meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no" /> <meta name="MSSmartTagsPreventParsing" content="true" /> <meta name="description" content="" /> <meta name="keywords" content="" /> <link rel="help" href="about.php" title="Site info." /> <meta name="Rating" content="General" /> <meta name="revisit-after" content="2 Days" /> <meta name="doc-class" content="Living Document" /> </head> <body> <div id="upper"> <div id="header"> <img src="graph/top-right2.jpg" width="700" height="78" alt="" /> </div> <div id="menu"><ul> <li id="one"> </li> <li id="two"><a href="link1.php" title="Link 1.">Link 1</a></li> <li id="three"><a href="link2.php" title="Link 2.">Link 2</a></li> <li id="four"><a href="link3.php" title="Link 3.">Link 3</a></li> <li id="five"><a href="link4.php" title="Link 4.">Link 4</a></li> <li id="six"><a href="link5.php" title="Link 5.">Link 5</a></li> <li id="seven"> </li> </ul></div> </div> <div id="content"> <p>Here is some text</p> <p>Here is some more text </p> </div> </body> </html> Hi I wonder if anyone can help. I've been trying to tidy up the layout of my home page, and I'm pretty confused by the way that the header is behaving in both Firefox and Safari - the browsers I use on my Mac. I've got screen shots which show it looking good on most Windows browsers, but for some reason, all the text is bunched up at the top when I look at it on the Mac. This is a link to the page: http://www.independentliving.co.uk/index1.shtml And this is the relevant bit of the stylesheet: div#header { background-image: url("header.jpg"); background-repeat: no-repeat; color: #FFFFFF; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto; margin-top: 0; width:780px; height: 200px; margin-bottom: 10px; font-size: 0.8em; } #header .welcome { text-align: left; width: 700px; padding-top: 90px; padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px; color: #003366; font-size: 0.8em; } p.welcome { text-align: left; width: 700px; padding-top: 90px; padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px; color: #003366; font-size: 0.8em; } #header .slogan { text-align: left; width: 700px; padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px; color: #003366; font-size: 0.8em; } p.slogan { text-align: left; width: 700px padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px; color: #003366; } If anyone has any ideas, I'd be really grateful. I know Mac is a minority platform, but as it's the one I use, I'm pretty keen to get it working! Thanks Frances Hi, My site is divided into 2 columns: The left column is 760px in width. I want the right column to take up the remaining space of the screen - no matter what resolution i'm on. Here's the page: http://www.3003online.com/demos/ecoceylon/ As you can see, the left column is 760px wide, but the right column (which is currently a simple background black colour) isn't filling up the rest of the space There's even a height problem - On IE, the width of that right column is 100% on the backgorund colour. But on Firefox, it isnt... Here's the code: Code: <div id="container"> <div id="logo"> <div class="hide">test</div> </div> <div class="spacer"> </div> </div> <div id="bgcolor_area"> </div> And the CSS: Code: body { color:#FFFFFF ; font-family: Trebuchet MS, Arial ; font-size:9pt ; font-weight:normal; line-height: 18px; background-color: #FFFFFF; margin:0px; width:100%; height:100%; } #bgcolor_area { background: #000000; height: 100%; width: auto; float: left; } #container { text-align: left; width: 760px; float: left; } #logo { height: 89px; width: 760px; background: url(../images/0_top.jpg) no-repeat; margin: 0; } Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Thanks a lot! Hello everybody! I have been having a big problem with my webpage for a long time now and hope I can find an answer to my problem with your help. I want a div that contains the content of my pages (which varies in length depending on the individual page) to stretch the length of my page, but it only stretches the length of the window. Here's the HTML and CSS: HTML (I only included the very basic structure): <html> <body> <div class="container"> <div id="content"> <div id="..."></div> <div id="..."></div> <div id="..."></div> <div id="..."></div> </div> </div> </body> </html>` CSS: html, body { height: 100%; font-family: Arial; font-size: 10px; color: #000000; background: #FFF url(../../images/body.png) no-repeat center 40px; margin: 0; position: relative;} .container { height: 100%; width: 960px; margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; position: relative;} #content { width: 939px; min-height: 100%; position: relative; top: 210px; left: 6px; box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #666; -moz-box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #666; -webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #666; background-color: #FFF;} I tried to set the content div to overflow: auto, but that includes a scroll bar for the content div that I do not want. It does, however, create the desired effect of the shadow and background of the #content div all the way to the end of the page. Am I missing anything? I thought min-height would work, but it doesn't! It only stretches the content div to page height and everything else is overflow, but without the content div's background color and shadow. Does anybody maybe see where the problem lies? Thank you so much in advance for your help. Exactly that question. I got this menu from a website.

Once again my developement is stalled with the interactions of my website with the multitude of browsers... Firebird... displays perfectly everytime without a doubt... I'm beginning to wonder why I even bother looking testing it in that browser becuase nothing is ever wrong. Internet Explorer, on the other hand, is a different beast entirely. Basically I'm trying to set up a div element that uses a semi opaque background... something between 75-85%, such that the background of my website shows through. So what I decided to do was make a graphic ( in Interlaced PNG format ) that would match my needs. As mentioned above there are some display issues in IE. I was wondering if there is a way to control the alpha level of element backgrounds without setting up/or using graphics, ( the less bandwidth the better ). Regards, I have a table. It's a nice table, presenting its data in a clean, semantic manner. Great, so I wanted it to be a pretty table too. And I did that (problematic lines commented out for comparison): Table with some CSS (Link no longer active). Then I thought about function again. I wanted a scrolling table (Note that this was never meant to work in the obsolete IE). I added "height: 100px; overflow: auto;" to the tbody's CSS. That's when I ran into problems: Table with only two lines of CSS added (Link no longer active). Problems: There is a horizontal scrollbar. It appears to be making up for the space that the vertical scrollbar takes up. My nice cell borders are no longer in the tbody, but instead stick out of the table, overlapping anything that comes after. Interestingly enough, although the height declaration is required in order to show scrollbars, if I only add the overflow style, I still get that nasty border chaos. I am using Firefox. Any ideas on how to fix/overcome/avoid these problems? This is really bugging me. I've just run my site through the W3C CSS validator and I'm getting an error telling me I need to validate my XML document? So, how do I validate my XML document, and where do I put the </link> tag it tells me I need? I fear this is just the start of my problems here's the validator link: http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/...&usermedium=all Hi guys Look here www DOT clickemarketing DOT com The date, before each article, should show at right. This date uses the .createdate css class, which is this Code: .createdate { color: #A9A9A9; vertical-align: top; padding-bottom:2px; float: right; font-size: 11px; } I don't know why IE shows it at left... FF shows ok Is there any way to correct this class, and make date show at right in this pseudo browser, worm collector, spyware downloader called IE ? Thanks http://i.domaindlx.com/wheelofgod/kingjames.asp The navigation bar isn't lining up I use Mozilla Firefox and the 2 images "examples" and "articles" are not in the column no matter how hard I tried.

We've just launched a new site built on PHP and Smarty Templates (I'm posting on this board because I don't think it's a PHP problem...let me know if I'm wrong about that), but with lots of javascript and css. My client sent me a screenshot (attached) which shows that all of the stylesheet-formatted text is rendered without formatting...it's coming up Times New Roman with default colors. (Please ignore the blue boxes...I masked the identifying features of the image to protect the innocent :-) ). This goes away upon refresh, but it seems to happen (though never to me) often enough that we're worried about it. Has anyone ever seen anything like this? I'll be happy to reproduce any code that anyone's interested in, but I wasn't sure where to start and I didn't want to have to display a bunch of irrelevant code. I searched the boards but couldn't find anything. Thanks in advance. Michael Schmidt On my re-design of www.samuraiblog.com , I have a DIV that has quite a bit of text in it. I have it set to 100%, but it only goes about 1/4 of the way. You can see what I mean here, on a test server, http://samuraiblog.dreamhost.com/index.php Thanks, -Sam Long time reader, first time poster. I have an issue with a css vertical menu I've made but first things first. My target browser is IE7, this is a corporate intranet so I have some control over this. However, we do run alot of pcs with Firefox but, of course, the problem doesn't exist with this browser. Here's the issue: The div#leftbox contains the menu but when the list elements extend into the center div (div#middlebox) you can see the anchors and finger them but if you try to move to the next list item the submenu disapears? It's like it recognizes the display: block on the list element but not on the anchor? Another weird thing is that if I extend the div#leftbox width to accommodate the size of the menu and the submenu it works fine but only if i have a background-color applied to the #leftbox. If I leave it transparent it behaves as before.

Site URL is here, and the issue that I am having is as follows: I have a layer with a cloud as it's background. It's the one in the centre, called layer1 because I didn't bother renaming it. Because of the background being a cloud, the edges are curved, like a fluffy cloud would be. Obviously any text in this layer will overrun the edges of the cloud, and so I thought it would make sense to use padding to trim the text area down so it would all fit on the cloud. Now the problem that I am having is that while padding the left side works, padding the right side appears to have no effect :-( If anyone's got any hints or tips that might solve my proble, I'd be reeeeally grateful!
