CSS - Yet Another Overflow Issue
Similar TutorialsHi, I am trying to display an image (in its own div) which extends past the height of the container div it is in. The problem is that in FF it chops off the piece of the image (as overflow is hidden??) that extends below the container div, it doesn't in any version of IE. However, if I don't set overflow to hidden, in IE6, the portion of the image that extends also makes the container divs background color display below the height I have set for it... Hope you get what I mean Anyway, here is the code Code:
<div id="banner-container">
<div id="banner">
<div id="banner-txt">
<img src="images/banner-txt.png" />
<p>
Lorem ipsum...</p>
</div><!-- banner txt -->
<div id="banner-img">
<img src="images/banner-img1.png" alt="the image" />
</div><!-- banner img -->
</div><!--banner-->
</div><!-- banner container -->
And the css Code:
#banner-container{width:100%; height:314px; margin:0 auto; padding:0; background-color:#212582; overflow:hidden;}
#banner{width:920px; height:314px; margin:0 auto; padding:0; background-image:url(../images/banner-bg.jpg); background-repeat: repeat-x; }
#banner-txt{width:519px; height:280px; float:left;}
#banner-img{width:340px; height:314px; position:relative; padding-top:10px; float:right;}
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get it to stop chopping off the end of the image in FF?? Thanks... EDIT: Some screens... Firefox Internet Explorer I have an annoying problem that causes my css boxes to overflow in IE. You can see the problem here URL The CSS for these boxes is as follows Code:
.rbroundbox { background: url(images/postbackground.gif) repeat; }
.rbtop div { background: url(images/topleft.gif) no-repeat top left; }
.rbtop { background: url(images/topright.gif) no-repeat top right; }
.rbbot div { background: url(images/bottomleft.gif) no-repeat bottom left; }
.rbbot { background: url(images/bottomright.gif) no-repeat bottom right; }
/* height and width stuff, width not really nessisary. */
.rbtop div, .rbtop, .rbbot div, .rbbot {
width: 100%;
height: 7px;
font-size: 1px;
}
.rbcontent { margin: 0 7px; }
.rbroundbox { width: 60%; margin: 1em auto; }
The HTML is Code:
<div class="rbroundbox">
<div class="rbtop"><div></div></div>
<div class="rbcontent">
<b>[INSERT TITLE]</b>
<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td width="100%">
[INSERT NEWS]
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<p><font face="Tahoma" size="2">Posted by <a href="mailto:[INSERT EMAIL]">[INSERT REALNAME]</a> at [INSERT DATE]</font></p>
</div><!-- /rbcontent -->
<div class="rbbot"><div></div></div>
</div><!-- /rbroundbox -->
What is causing the overflow in IE? it doesnt show up in any other browser I know of. tinyurl(dotcom)/6dw6jp4 Hi everyone I am a newbie here, Please have a look at the above link. The second box which has the therapist images and their names do not appear correctly on IE8. On all other browsers it seems to work fine. Can any one please have a look at the page and let me know a solutions. Thanks a lot. The site I am working now has a discussion group. Sometimes someone will post a pic and the thread will break the 955px boundary of the wrapper. In Firefox, what happens is the thread will leave the wrapper. In IE, the thread makes the wrapper expand. In an ideal world I'd have all images resized or not even limit myself to a 955px width, but this won't work with this site... I'd like to know if it is possible to make the thread div leave the wrapper in tact at 955px like it does in Firefox. Thanks in advance :} Please look at this page - Example Page On the above page you will see a link that reads "Click Here" Doing so opens a lightbox. In Chrome & FF their is a small "X" graphic appearing in the top right corner to close the lightbox, but that same graphic does not appear in IE for some reason. Can someone shed some light as to why? Tom Heys, I have the following code: <html> <head></head> <body> <div style="width: 100px; height: 100px; border: 1px solid red;"> <div style="width: 200px; border: 1px solid green; float: left;">-</div> </div> </body> </html> In FF and IE7 it works the way I'm desiring; specifically, the child div (width: 200px is contained inside a box, however it breaks outside of it due to the width. ||||||||| ||||||||| |||||||||||| |||||||||||| ||||||||| ||||||||| That's how it should look; but I can't replicate it in IE6. Any ideas? Thanks Hi, I have faced a strange issue with the CSS overflow property while using nested DIVs.The DIV with class main has the DIV main-1a as its child which in turn has the DIV with class main-1a-child as its child. As the height of main is not fixed, so it is supposed to increase with main-1a and main-1a-child. But in Mozila FireFox, the height of main is not getting increased with the child DIVs. When the overflow property is set to hidden in main, then only the height of main gets increased with its childs. The issue is fine in IE6 regardless of the overflow property. Any help/explanation in this regard will be very helpful. <html> <head> <title>My Page</title> <style type="text/css"> .main { position:relative; width:800px; display:block; border:1px solid #000000; margin:auto; padding:10px 10px 10px 10px; background:#BABB99; height:100%; overflow:hidden; } .main-1a { width:780px; float:left; background:#FFFFFF; border:1px solid #FF0000; padding:10px 10px 10px 10px; } .main-1a-child { width:760px; float:left; border:1px solid #000000; padding:10px 10px 10px 10px; background:#BABB99; } </style> </head> <body> <div class="main"> <div class="main-1a"> <div class="main-1a-child"> <p>text of div1 a2</p> <p>snkjkjsd</p> <p>snkjkjsd</p> <p>snkjkjsd</p> </div> </div> </div> </body> </html> My CSS works in IE and Mozilla but not Netscape or Opera I have a 2 column website, built with 2 relative position DIVs, with overflow set to auto. Because of this, I turned off overflow on the body tag and on the html tag (overflow: hidden;). I didn't want to have 2 scroll bars on the right side of the window. When I first tested this on 4 browsers, IE, Mozilla, Netscape and Opera, it worked great, only having one scroll bar on the right side of the window when the page was longer than the window height. But when I moved to a new host server recently, I discovered that Netscape and Opera stopped working. They now simply give me blank screens. When I remove the "overflow: hidden;" specifications from the body tag and the HTML tag in my CSS file, Netscape and Opera once again display my web pages. However, now I get 2 scrollbars on the right side of all 4 browsers (in IE, the second scrollbar isn't actually there, but the space holder for the scrollbar is there). Is there a cross browser way for doing what I'm trying to do? Or am I faced with detecting the browser type on the server-side, and setting the style sheet appropriately? Here are the related parts of my CSS: /* CSS styles */ BODY { font-family : Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif ; font-size : 10pt; background : Black; color : White; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-width: 0; overflow: hidden; } HTML { overflow: hidden; } #LeftNavDIV { position:relative; width:185px; height:100%; float:left; padding:2px 0px 0px 0px; margin:0px 0px 0px 0px; border:1px solid white; overflow:auto; } #ContentDIV { position:relative; height:100%; width:75%; float:right; padding:0px 0px 0px 0px; margin:0px 0px 0px 0px; border:0px dashed #336699; overflow:auto; } what i'm trying to accomplish is two boxes next to each other inside a div, which i can scroll horizontally to see the two boxes. if you copy the code below it works correctly, only because the width of the parent div is set. Code:
<style type="text/css">
#container {
overflow:scroll;
width:100px;
}
#parent {
overflow:hidden;
width:400px;
}
.box1 {
border:1px solid black;
float: left;
height: 101px;
width: 101px;
}
</style>
<div id='container'>
<div id='parent'>
<div class='box1'></div>
<div class='box1'></div>
</div>
</div>
if i change width:900px in the parent div to width:auto then the boxes go underneath one another. That's the problem, the parent div should auto adjust to the width of both boxes. i'd really appreciate solving this. i can't have a fixed width on the parent div it should auto adjust and both boxes should be next to each other. My page looks decent in Firefox but in IE the overflow property doesn't seem to be working. Perhaps you can give me some pointers as to which tags may be messing up the display in Internet Explorer.

My problem is that my "row" div's overlay if their content is larger. Because of that i cannot see the send button from my form (the textarea height is bigger that the height of the "row" div - i need the layer to expland according to the content, but i don't want it to overlay on what is after it!). I hope that you understood my problem and could help my with it. Thanks in advance! How do I make the DIV overflow in the below codes? It works in IE but not firefox. <html > <head> <style type="text/css"> html, body { height : 100%; } </style> </head> <body> <table style="height : 100%; width : 100%"> <tr style="height : 64px; background-color : Blue;"> <td></td> </tr> <tr style="height : auto; background-color : red;"> <td> <!-- THIS IS THE PROBLEM --> <div style="height :auto; overflow-y : scroll"> <!-- THIS IS THE PROBLEM --> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> asd<br /> </div> </td> </tr> <tr style="height : 64px; background-color : Blue;"> <td></td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> While working on my site, I am testing it in Mozilla Firefox 1.0pr and IE 6. In my code: body, td, iframe, table, div, tr { font-variant: small-caps; margin-left: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #ffffff; background-color: #666666; scrollbar-3dlight-color: #666666; scrollbar-arrow-color: #666666; scrollbar-base-color: #666666; scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #666666; scrollbar-face-color: #666666; scrollbar-highlight-color: #666666; scrollbar-shadow-color: #666666; } a:link { color: #ffffff; text-decoration: none; } a:visited { text-decoration: none; color: #ffffff; } a:hover { text-decoration: none; color: #ff0000; } a:active { text-decoration: none; color: #ffffff; } select, option, textarea, input { border: #ffffff 1px solid; font-size: 11px; font-variation: normal; font-family: Verdana; background-color: #666666; } I would add "overflow: auto;" right under 'body, td, iframe, table, div, tr {' so that in Mozilla the scrollbars would not show up. However, when I load it in IE, the windows do not scroll at all. Is there a quick-fix for this, or what can I do so it will work properly in both browsers? Hi all, I'm working on the site http://boolarongpress.com.au and have hit a problem. In IE7 if you click into either the title or author search fields in the left hand nav menu the cpu usage maxes out and IE7 hangs. There is no javascript attached to these inputs. The problem seems to be caused by a line in the css, overflow: auto; This is set for the content div so that it scrolls as if it were a frame. If I remove this line from the css the problem dissappears but of course the content div no longer scrolls. Has anyone got any ideas on how I can fix/work around this issue? Cheers, Peter Hi everyone, I am having a problem with the 'overflow' property in Internet Explorer6. I am working on an image slide show.The images are displayed in two divs whose CSS is as follows: #imageBox { margin: auto; width: 450px; border: 1px #000 solid; overflow: hidden; height:90px; z-index:500;} #imageBoxInside { width: 10000px; height:90px;float:left;overflow:hidden; z-index:200; } #imageBox img { float: left; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; } #imageBox br { clear: both; } In mozilla firefox it is working perfectly. But in IE6 the 'overflow' property doesn't work . Please help. Hi, I'm trying to do a design with: http://xlibrisclients.co.uk/flybynite/new/V1.htm in mind. I want the content to have a scrollbar if content goes off the page... basically want to achieve the look and feel of a frame base site such as: http://www.flybynite.co.uk/website/ but only using CSS and tables. Please help! Janusz I am having trouble with the overflow: hidden; in IE6. I have a simple example. I have rewritten this to make it as simple as possible. [code] <html> <head> </head> <body> <div style="position:absolute; top: 100px; width:200px; z-index:1; bottom: 113px; overflow:hidden"> <img src="images/700/900-pixel-height-image.jpg"> </div> </body> </html> This simple page works fine in Firefox but in IE6 the overflow:hidden does not work. Why? I thought IE6 completely supported overflow. |
