CSS - Input Box Formatting Not Working In Firefox Why?
I am using the following stylesheet code to format an input box and it works fine in internet explorer but doesn't in firefox, how do I fix it so it works in firefox?
Tim PHP Code: input.pin {font-size: 7pt; font-family: tahoma; background-color: white; border-top: dotted lightgrey 1; border-bottom: dotted lightgrey 1; border-left: dotted lightgrey 1; border-right: dotted lightgrey 1} Similar TutorialsHi folks. I'm new to this forum, but I'm not new to CSS. I've inherited a little problem that was left behind by my client's original developer. Here is the code the makes up the header on my page: Code: <body> <div id="issingle"> <div id="container"> <div id="sitename"> <a href="http://www.nectardesign.com"><img src="http://www.nectardesign.com/blog/wp-content/themes/default/nectar-product-development.gif" border="0" alt="Nectar Product Development"/></a> </div> <div id="mainmenu"> <ul> <!--<li class=""><a href="http://www.nectardesign.com/blog">Home</a></li>--> <li class="page_item"><a href="http://www.nectardesign.com/about/">about</a></li> <li class="page_item"><a href="http://www.nectardesign.com/service/">service</a></li> <li class="page_item"><a href="http://www.nectardesign.com/category/all-products">portfolio</a></li> <li class="page_item current_page_item"><a href="http://www.nectardesign.com/blog/">blog</a></li> <li class="page_item"><a href="http://www.nectardesign.com/blog/category/news/">news</a></li> <li class="page_item"><a href="http://www.nectardesign.com/career/">career</a></li> <li class="page_item no_bar"><a href="http://www.nectardesign.com/contact/">contact</a></li> </ul> </div> And here is the css pertaining to that code: Code: body { background:#fff; color:#303030; font: normal 12px /*Verdana,Tahoma,*/Arial, sans-serif; margin:0 auto; padding:0; text-align:center; width:850px; } #container { position: relative; background:url('http://www.nectardesign.com/images/headerbg.jpg') top center repeat-x; color:#303030; border:1px solid #C8C8C8; margin:10px; /* padding:10px;*/ text-align:left; height:598px; } html>body #container {height: 1%; min-height: 598px;} #mainmenu { position: absolute; right: 10px; top: 27px; margin-right: 5px; } #mainmenu li.page_item { float:left; /* height:35px;*/ list-style:none; margin:0; padding:0; } #mainmenu a { border-right:1px solid #b0b0b0; color:#808080; display:block; margin: 0; padding: 1px 8px; text-transform:lowercase; } Basically, this page's header looks correct in Firefox and Safari, but terrible in IE 5.x (Mac). Not only do the horizontal links (About, Service, Portfolio...) not show up correctly--they're actually on the left sidebar--but the repeating image doesn't repeat like it should. It doesn't even show up at all. Since I'm new, please don't hesitate to let me know if I'm forgetting to include any other important info. Thank you!! J 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. ok i developed the site www.fmrehab.com and the input forms on it are way oversized, is there something im missing or what. my code below: Code: input.search { width:124px; padding:2px; font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:10px; color:#003366; border:1px solid #003366; background-color:#FFFFFF; margin-bottom:3px; } Hi there, I have this basic CSS: Code: input.text { font-size: 11px; border: 1px #93A6C6 solid; background-color: #FFFFFF; color: #3F5674; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; } select { font-size: 11px; background-color: #FFFFFF; color: #3F5674; padding-right: 3px } textarea { font-size: 11px; border: 1px #93A6C6 solid; background-color: #FFFFFF; color: #3F5674; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 0px; word-spacing: 1pt; } The input box style isn't working correctly. The text I type in is coming out black and in a larger font than specified. If I just use style input rather than input.text it does work, but then it will put square borders around radio check boxes, which I don't want. Any ideas why it isn't working? This is the form it is being used on: Code: <form name="Albums Search" method="get" action="searchresults.php"> <table border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td><div align="center"> <input name="searchterm" type="text" tabindex="1" size="50" maxlength="75"> </div></td> <td rowspan="2" align="center" valign="middle"><div align="center"> <input type="submit" value="Search"> </div></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div align="center">Artist: <input name="searchtype" type="radio" value="artist" checked> Title: <input name="searchtype" type="radio" value="title"> Year: <input name="searchtype" type="radio" value="year"> </div></td> </tr> </table> <p> <textarea name="textarea"></textarea> </p> </form> Thanks I have made this input field so people can place their name in there but noticed that when you type into it, the writing begins too close to the left side and I would like to place like a left margin on it by about 5px. This is my input field code on my form: Code: <input type="text" class="field" name="title" size="45" maxlength="200"/> On my stylesheets I placed this: Code: input.field {background-color:#333333; border:none; margin-left:5px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: none; font-size: 11px; color: #000000;} Doesn't work?? I can't figure out why. Hey Guys, I made a website but I am having a problem with the CSS. http://www.gc69.com The website previews great in firefox. However, when I open it in IE, the navigation and header messes up so badly. Also, the footer is also spanning 100% accross the screen, but its meant to be just like the top navigation in firefox. Help please. Edit/Delete Message Hello, I'm new to CSS. The like script or css I have seem to work fine in IE but not in FireFox. Actually its not doing anything in FireFox. how can i code it or script it so that it works in both browsers equaly. this is what i have in a file called public.css .class1 A:link {text-decoration: none; color: white} .class1 A:visited {text-decoration: none; color: white} .class1 A:active {text-decoration: none; color: white} .class1 A:hover {text-decoration: underline; color: white} any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated Hi! I have simple page, it has 600X400 no repeat static background, and 3 flash windows positioned over it correctly. In IE all shows fine. But Firefox completely ignores margin commands, and absolution position of third flash window, while in IE all show correctly, as well as in dreamweaver. Where the problem might be?

border: solid 1px black;} OK, I have NO hair left and a bruise on my forehead from banging my head against the wall. I'm creating my html in php, and sending it to a table for display. A cell looks like: <td><input id="usersalonrow" type="text" name="Title[]" value=' . '"' . $_SESSION['SalonEntryData'][$i]['Title'] . '"' . ' /></td>' . The CSS looks like: #usersalonrow { text-align:left; background-color:#ffffff; width:100%; color:#000; font-size:14px; border:0px; } This works FINE in IE8, Firefox, and Chrome..... I presume it'll work pretty much everywhere. BUT, in an error situation, I want to display the EXACT same line with a red background: <td><input id="errorusersalonrow" type="text" name="Title[]" value=' . '"' . $_SESSION['SalonEntryData'][$i]['Title'] . '"' . ' /></td>' . so I changed "usersalonrow" to "errorusersalonrow". That's the ONLY CHANGE.. And the CSS looks like: #errorusersalonrow { text-align:left; background-color:#ff0000; color:#000; width:100%; font-size:14px; border:0px; } Works FINE in Firefox. In IE I get no red background, my font changes to a smaller size, and there's a border around the entry....... BUT, if I TAKE the exact set of entries OUT OF THE CSS and embed them in the line: '<td><input style="text-align:left; background-color:#ff0000; color:#000; width:100%; font-size:14px; border:0px;" type="text" name="Title[]" value=' . '"' . $_POST['Title'][$i] . '"' . ' /></td>' . it AGAIN works fine in all the browsers... Red background and so on.. WHAT have I messed up THIS TIME? Hi, everyone!! I am going crazy with my external stylesheet. I have 3 of them...the 2 "minor" stylesheets are functioning as expected. However, my "main" stylesheet is not working (unfortunately, I cannot post the site...it is hosted locally). The problem with the stylesheet: my dd classes are not working (indenting) in firefox. They do indent in IE. In firefox, I get a standard bullet all the way down, no indentions. I'm sure it's something silly, but my eyes are blurry by now...lol... Could someone please take a look at this code? Suggestions? body { overflow-x:hidden } a { text-decoration:none } img { border: none; } p { font-family: arial; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: lighter; font-size: x-small; word-spacing: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-decoration: none; text-transform: none; text-align: left; text-indent: 0ex; } dd { font-family: arial; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: lighter; font-size: x-small; word-spacing: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-decoration: none; text-transform: none; text-align: left; text-indent: 0ex; display: list-item; list-style-type: square; } d1 { font-family: arial; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: lighter; font-size: x-small; word-spacing: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-decoration: none; text-transform: none; text-align: left; text-indent: 2ex; display: list-item; list-style-type: none; } dd.2 { font-family: arial; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: lighter; font-size: x-small; word-spacing: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-decoration: none; text-transform: none; text-align: left; text-indent: 5ex; display: list-item; list-style-type: none; } dd.3 { font-family: arial; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: lighter; font-size: x-small; word-spacing: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-decoration: none; text-transform: none; text-align: left; text-indent: 7ex; display: list-item; list-style-type: square; } dd.4 { font-family: arial; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: lighter; font-size: x-small; word-spacing: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-decoration: none; text-transform: none; text-align: left; text-indent: 9ex; display: list-item; list-style-type: none; } dt { font-family: arial; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: bold; font-size: x-small; word-spacing: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-decoration: none; text-transform: none; text-align: left; text-indent: 0ex; } thanks in advance! ~Erin Hi there! My website (Yes.. I'm aware I use tables. Sue me. :P) has been driving me crazy CSS-wise. width:100% doesn't seem work right! Well, I know it does... but it hasn't been, and I have no idea why. As you can see in that page (and the forums too....) the black-bordered table underneath each subheader stretches too far in everything but Firefox. In Opera, not only does the black-bordered table stretch too far, but the subheading stretch... too little. O_o I am at a complete loss for words at this. Also, might I point out that when you visit a song on the site, the file type navigation (#sheetNav in the CSS file) works just fine? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. For your convenience, here is the CSS file. Yes, it's something of a mess... forgive me. http://apollomix.com/master.css Thanks a lot!

font-size: 13px; font-family:"Myriad","Arial","Times New Roman",; font-weight: bold; } body { Thanks Ruksana I've started roughing out a redesign for my site, which is a very graphics-intensive, table-intensive site. I want to redo the whole thing in CSS, but I admit my CSS is quite rusty and I've been spending the last several days trying to go at it with some steel wool to remember how to do it. I haven't had to use much CSS since I worked at a dot-com back around 2000. I got the base design working the way I wanted in Firefox (my default browser) but then looked at it in IE and it's a mess. I spent awhile working on it until it was *mostly* there, but it still looks pretty bad in IE. I hope that perhaps someone can give me some pointers as to how I can fix this issue. It's at www. breedlist. com/personal/newsite/index.html (sorry, there is a rule about new posters not being able to create URLs, but I don't know how else to show the problem. This is an attempt to rework my site, breedlist). ...Barb I'm new to this so probably made a horrible mistake, but somehow my CSS is FUBAR. The goal is to format a series of divs to replicate a table layout for my DB output in a manner that looks nice when printed out. In Firefox my layout looks correct, it is nearly identical to the version using tables. However when I try to print Firefox locks up! In IE it looks like ***. The first "column" is correct, the rest are not aligned correctly at all. It seems like this should be really simple (doesn't everything!) and yet I've managed to complete screw it up. Here is the CSS: Code: body { background-color: White; color: Black; } div.main { text-indent: 5px; font-weight: bold; border-bottom: 1px dashed Black; color: #000000; padding: 1px; float: left; clear: both; width: 500px; background-color: #FAF0E6; } div.sub { text-indent: 45px; border-bottom: 1px dashed Black; padding: 1px; background-color: #FAA0E6; width: 500px; float: left; clear: both; } div.tty { text-indent: 45px; border-bottom: 1px dashed Black; font-style: italic; float: left; clear: both; width: 500px; background-color: #FAFFE6; } div.subx2 { text-indent: 70px; border-bottom: 1px dashed Black; font-style: italic; float: left; clear: both; width: 450px; background-color: #FAF0A6; } div.email { color: #000000; padding: 1px; border-bottom: 1px dashed Black; width: 150px; float: left; background-color: #FAF006; } div.location { color: #000000; padding: 1px; border-bottom: 1px dashed Black; width: 150px; float: left; background-color: #AAF0E6; } div.mailstop { color: #000000; padding: 1px; border-bottom: 1px dashed Black; width: 150px; float: left; background-color: #FAAFE6; } div.phone { color: #000000; padding: 1px; border-bottom: 1px dashed Black; width: 150px; float: left; background-color: #FAF066; } Please note that a lot of that is in there for testing to make the divs more visible as I moved them around! (hence the godawful color scheme). Gods I hate IE. I test this in IE6 and it comes out completely wrong. Here's the CSS: Code: body { font: 90% Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; background: #666666; margin: 0; /* it's good practice to zero the margin and padding of the body element to account for differing browser defaults */ padding: 0; text-align: center; /* this centers the container in IE 5* browsers. The text is then set to the left aligned default in the #container selector */ color: #000000; background-color: #FAFBFB; background-image: url(images/mainbackground.gif); } /* Tips for Elastic layouts 1. Since the elastic layouts overall sizing is based on the user's default fonts size, they are more unpredictable. Used correctly, they are also more accessible for those that need larger fonts size since the line length remains proportionate. 2. Sizing of divs in this layout are based on the 100% font size in the body element. If you decrease the text size overall by using a font-size: 80% on the body element or the #container, remember that the entire layout will downsize proportionately. You may want to increase the widths of the various divs to compensate for this. 3. If font sizing is changed in differing amounts on each div instead of on the overall design (ie: #sidebar1 is given a 70% font size and #mainContent is given an 85% font size), this will proportionately change each of the divs overall size. You may want to adjust based on your final font sizing. */ .twoColElsLtHdr #container { width: 100%; /* this width will create a container that will fit in an 800px browser window if text is left at browser default font sizes */ background: #FFFFFF; margin: 0px; border: 0px; text-align: left; /* this overrides the text-align: center on the body element. */ background-image: url(images/mainbackground.gif) } .twoColElsLtHdr #header { background: #DDDDDD; padding: 0px; background-image:url(images/bg.jpg); width: 100%;} .twoColElsLtHdr #header h1 { margin: 0; /* zeroing the margin of the last element in the #header div will avoid margin collapse - an unexplainable space between divs. If the div has a border around it, this is not necessary as that also avoids the margin collapse */ padding: 10px 0; /* using padding instead of margin will allow you to keep the element away from the edges of the div */ } /* Tips for sidebar1: 1. Be aware that if you set a font-size value on this div, the overall width of the div will be adjusted accordingly. 2. Since we are working in ems, it's best not to use padding on the sidebar itself. It will be added to the width for standards compliant browsers creating an unknown actual width. 3. Space between the side of the div and the elements within it can be created by placing a left and right margin on those elements as seen in the ".twoColElsLtHdr #sidebar1 p" rule. */ .twoColElsLtHdr #sidebar1 { float: left; width: 200px; background-image:url(images/bg.jpg); padding-left: 5px; /* top and bottom padding create visual space within this div */ height:400px; } .twoColElsLtHdr #sidebar1 h3, .twoColElsLtHdr #sidebar1 p { margin-left: 10px; /* the left and right margin should be given to every element that will be placed in the side columns */ margin-right: 10px; } /* Tips for mainContent: 1. If you give this #mainContent div a font-size value different than the #sidebar1 div, the margins of the #mainContent div will be based on its font-size and the width of the #sidebar1 div will be based on its font-size. You may wish to adjust the values of these divs. 2. The space between the mainContent and sidebar1 is created with the left margin on the mainContent div. No matter how much content the sidebar1 div contains, the column space will remain. You can remove this left margin if you want the #mainContent div's text to fill the #sidebar1 space when the content in #sidebar1 ends. 3. To avoid float drop, you may need to test to determine the approximate maximum image/element size since this layout is based on the user's font sizing combined with the values you set. However, if the user has their browser font size set lower than normal, less space will be available in the #mainContent div than you may see on testing. 4. In the Internet Explorer Conditional Comment below, the zoom property is used to give the mainContent "hasLayout." This avoids several IE-specific bugs that may occur. */ .twoColElsLtHdr #mainContent { margin: 0 1.5em 0 13em; /* the right margin can be given in ems or pixels. It creates the space down the right side of the page. */ margin-top: 0px; margine-right: 400px; padding-top:0px; position:absolute; left: 50px; top: 145px; max-width: 700px; min-width: 700px; background-color:#d5d4b5; padding:10px; border-color: #420000; border-style:solid; border-size: 5px; min-height: 380px; } As you can see, I am mostly working off of modified DW scripts.

I have set it up so that visited links have no decoration and do not change colour in the navigation, as opposed to the main body of text where they do behave as normal links. i.e. a:visited {.......normal behaviour and a.actuator:visited {.......no changes to appearance this works fine in firefox (gotta love it!) but in internet explorer, for some reason, it ignores the 'a class="actuator"' and uses my normal link rules. (gotta... errr... not love it!) any ideas? many thanks, jim. |
