CSS - Css Tables Look Funny In Ie!
I don't know why my tables look so weird, in Firefox they look fine as you can see in http://info.mooseheadbeer.com/graphics/table2.jpg - http://info.mooseheadbeer.com/graphics/table1.jpg shows what it looks like in Firefox.

Similar TutorialsI've seen it before but I really want to accomplish this and my friends are saying I need to you CSS to accomplish my task. I work for a support company maintaining the web app. At random times I want to enable my "Magic Floating Button" Basically here is what I need help with. I want my submit button to move away from the user when they mouse over it. This way they can never click submit and they chase the button around all day. Please help me with how to accomplish this. Thanks, Chris I have delved into building websites using CSs instead of tables. It looks great in IE 7 and above and Firefox, but in IE 6 it is out of whack badly. Like all the divs are on one side, when all the measurements are correct and should fit. Is there something I am doing wrong, it looks right even when I look at it in Dreamweaver. Is there a special method you should always apply when building a CSS website, like always add border:none; on all divs, just the same way, that you always have to add border: 0; on all images otherwise a border will appear? I have two column divs in my main div. They have the same margin setting but the second one mainright seems to be ignoring it... and both have width tags (that's doing something). (URL address blocked: See forum rules) and (URL address blocked: See forum rules) my wrapper has a min-width of 780px Is it margin doubling? when i took the border and margin out of the mainleft div, it slammed to the wall of the container div. is there a hack for this? i want my 2 columns to have identical alignment... Code:
#left {
float:left;
width:230px;
text-align:left;
font-size: 12px; border:1px solid red;
}
#left p {/* margin:10px;*/ padding:0;}
#main {
position:relative;margin-right:100px;
text-align:left;
}
#main h1,h2,h3,h4 {margin:0; padding:0; display:inline;}
#main p {margin:5px; padding-left:5px;}
#mainleft {
margin:5px;
float:left;
width:250px;
border:1px solid red;
text-align:left;
}
#mainright {
margin:5px;
padding:5px;
/**/ position:relative;
/* float:right; only made it float right but still below the left */
text-align:left;
margin-left:490px;

I am trying to work on a project from HTML Utopia: Designing without Tables Using CSS. It is from Chapter 9. It should be a layout with a header and three columns. A footer was added to the bottom and floats were incorporated to the content and sidebars so that nothing interferes with the footer. So, the footer shows up okay, but the positioning of the sidebars is now screwed up. It would be nice if I could show you an image of what this looks like, but this site won't let me do that because I am a new member. I will try to describe it the best I can. Instead of being a layout with a header and three columns on top with the footer on the bottom, it has the header and middle content div on top and the two sidebars are both on the bottom with lots of space above them. The footer is on the bottom as it should be. Here is the code (this is not the whole code--this is the code I think would effect the layout): body { margin: 0; padding: 0; background-color: #050845; color: white; background-image: url(web_site_files/02_creating_the_layout/img/bg.jpg); background-repeat: repeat-x; font: small Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; } #wrapper { background-color: #fdf8f2; color: black; margin: 30px 40px 30px 40px; padding: 10px; } #sidebar2 { float: left; width: 159px; border-top: 1px solid #b9d2e3; border-left: 1px solid #b9d2e3; border-bottom: 1px solid #b9d2e3; background-color: white; color: black; margin: 0; padding: 0; top: 1px; } #main { width: 100%; margin-top: 10px; } #sidebar { float: right; width: 220px; background-color: #256290; margin: 0; padding: 0; color: white; } Does anything look weird with the code above? If all of that looks right, then I can look and see if it is something else. I am seriously confuzzeled. I appreciate the help--I am trying to learn this on my own. (: So this site is having a bit of trouble in WinIE 6.0. If you resize the window after you load the page, the dark brown area behind the content sort of gets stuck on the right. I'm wondering if it might have something to do with the javascript I had to do to get IE to recognize fixed backgrounds. Any ideas? Site: http://dev.sabotagemedia.com/firstclass/ CSS: http://dev.sabotagemedia.com/firstclass/_css/style.css Hi everyone. I have a header section to my website, and to line up the navigation to the top of the bottom most element, I used absolute positioning to acheive this inside a relative positioned element. The strange thing is is that when first loaded, the absolutely positioned navigation is pulled completely from the parent relative div and shoved to the top of the screen. However, on refresh it jumps to where it should be per the css. Here's the CSS... Code:
#hd {
position: relative;
float: left;
width: 780px;
margin: 30px 0 0 0;
padding: 0;
background-color: #0099CC;
}
#hdlogo {
float: left;
margin: 0 0 18px 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: left;
}
#hdnav {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#hdnav ul {
position: absolute;
bottom: 16px;
right: 0;
height: 22px;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#hdnav ul li {
float: left;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style-type: none;
}
#hdnav ul li a:link img, #hdnav ul li a:visited img {
border: 0;
}
#hdbar {
clear: right;
width: 780px;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
And the HTML... Code: <div id="hd"> <div id="hdlogo"> <img src="images/logo.gif" alt="Home" title="Home"/> </div> <div id="hdnav"> <ul> <li><a href="index.htm"><img src="images/home.gif" alt="Home" title="Home" /></a></li> <li><a href="aboutus.htm"><img src="images/aboutus.gif" alt="About us" title="About us" /></a></li> <li><a href="performance.htm"><img src="images/performance.gif" alt="Performance" title="Performance" /></a></li> <li><a href="aesthetics.htm"><img src="images/aesthetics.gif" alt="Aesthetics" title="Aesthetics" /></a></li> <li><a href="sustainability.htm"><img src="images/sustainability.gif" alt="Sustainability" title="Sustainability" /></a></li> </ul> </div> <div id="hdbar"> <img src="images/hd-bar.gif" alt="" title="" /> <!-- hd-bar is 780px wide by 16px high --> </div> </div> Just for further knowledge, here's the body tag, and the two container wraps for the rest of the site... Code:
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: center;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
color: #555759;
}
body a:link, body a:visited {
text-decoration: underline;
color: #555759;
}
body a:hover {
text-decoration: underline;
color: #555759;
}
#content {
width: 780px;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 0;
}
#allwrap {
float: left;
width: 780px;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#content centers everything and #allwrap is a container for all it's child elements. I've also had a colleague that said in IE 6.0 that the navigation stacks, rather than displays inline. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks a bunch.. -Brian I'm not confident enough with CSS to just use it, so I'm mixing it with some tables too. I want a layout with two tables next to each at the top and then another below. The two at the top are working fine, but the one below keeps jumping back up to the top. I've managed to get an ugly fix by putting in a load of <br> but this doesn't work in IE7 (unless I add a lot more, pushing the content way down in other browsers) and isn't much of a solution. The other problem I have is that I want to have the majority of my page with a white background, but to get a surrounding border I've set the body background to be a colour and then placed a div around all the content. I want this div to be the size of the page and so set it's height to 100%, but this makes it too small. Not sure why. Here is my code for my page and CSS. If anyone can help I'd be most grateful.

**FIXED** Ok moving my site from tables to CSS in my spare time at work but im having some difficulty with height attr. Click me The Left and right bars - I would like them to go all the way to the bottom of the page. If anyone can help - please let me know! Thanks! Edit: Got it to work in Firefox just fine - but IE6 is still giving me problems. Edit #2: *sigh* needed to set body to 100% - man IE is bass-ackwards. Does anyone know of some good tutorials on how to use CSS rather than tables? If so, could you providea link. Thanks a lot. andrew Hi everyone, Dont actually know if this is possible (my css knowledge is way not what it should be!) Can I define a whole set of attriblutes for a table (fonts, links, hover links etc etc) and than just use it with <table class = "whatever"> etc and then that table will have all the properties I defined (for only that table, not for the rest of the page) if so how could I go about doing that. Any help is very appreciated! cheers Hey Guys, Hope you are all OK! I've been away abroad for a bit and now its back the the manic life here Has anyone got any good examples of creating pretty tables using CSS? I am ideally looking to to something that maybe has alternate colors on Columns and rows and changing colors where they cross?>!? or something equally as good for looking at data! Any links to examples would be great! Charlie Hi I would like to replace the tables that make up my page with CSS. I have a header, footer, left column and the main body. Do you know of a link to a tutorial that can help. Or perhaps you know the CSS code. Any pointers gratefully received.. Hello everybody, I am new to the forum and also a newbie to webdesign! I am hoping that somebody wants to help me out as I am trying to put the design of a table and the font used in CSS. I am trying to create a new table class out of: <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" class="tekst6" bgcolor="#E6373D"> (tekst6 = FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-SIZE: 13px; COLOR: #ffffff; ) How do I do this? Many many thanks in advance for your help! Regards Buzzman I am looking for advice on replacing a table layout (for form layout) with a CSS design. The purpose is to put together a PHP class that auto-generates forms so that the structure of the forms, is under control of an admin interface though an API. The problem is, that many of the clients that I do work for are very particular about the layout. In other words city, state and zip code must all be on one line, but phone number must have a row to itself, etc., etc.. The form must look exactly like the paper version. Generating a good looking form through an API using a table layout where i have to worry about column spans and so forth, is not something I am looking forward to. I would like to use a CSS layout instead. What is the best way to coax divs to work in the same way table cells and rows do and still deal with any goofy IE CSS quirks? Hello all, I have a site which I am working on right now and there is going to be text on the right side, and 3 rows on the right which on the top there will be a page banner, on bottom, just a picture, and i want to repeat the background colors on the other side. Kind of confusing to explain but he brandyn.garlic.com/headstart/aboutus.html Thats a page on the site, as you can see, there is a blank spot where I want a background to repeat but the size will obviously vary by the size of the content on the right. If someone could assist me with that, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Brandyn I am curious how important it is to use CSS for tables these days? I am a more of a PHP developer but have been using HTML tables for my applications since I don't do anything fancy on the front-end. I am asking because I am planning to start work on an open source project. While the project itself is intended to be used inhouse for companies and not on the Internet, it would still be nice to know if CSS or HTML tables could affect it in positive or negative ways. Thanks. Hi, how can I draw these borders to a table using css? Thank you! I grew up doing web programming knowing that tables were bad. It didn't take long before I read all the documents on why not to use tables for design. And I know firsthand... What still mystifies me to this day is why whenever I check another newer "professional" site, it's all in tables... sometimes with no CSS at all... sometimes with a little. I rarely see a site that has no tables. Why is this? Is it to minimize problem with IE? Hello. I'm currently tweaking the layout of one of the websites I run. Every page on the site consists of a series of side boxes on the left and main content on the right and currently this divide is created though tables. I'm trying to replace the old tablular layout with a series of divs which are positioned with CSS. Below the header of my page is a content div, which contains two other divs, left and right. The rest of the site content resides in seperate divs in either the left or right div. I've managed to position the left div on the left hand side of the page and the right div on the right. However, the text in the right div is longer than the content in the left div and I'm finding that once the content on the left has finished, the content on the right is filling the whole of the page beneath it, when I actually want it to stay on the right and just leave the remainder of the left hand side blank. I've been trying to fix this for a while now and haven't managed to do so yet so I'm hoping someone here might be able to offer some suggestions. I've put up a sample page of the layout at http://www.mybb-emods.com/new/index.htm. Similarly, the CSS code I'm using is located at http://www.mybb-emods.com/new/stylesheet.css. If anyone could help me, I would really appreciate some advice. I've a feeling there's a really simple solution here, but I certainly haven't managed to find it yet. Hi, I always used tables for my layout but want to change that to CSS. Problem is, I don't know how to get started thinking of the layout in css. I mostly make my pages centered with tables, can I do this with CSS? Does CSS use absolute position ? I was making a site with tables, but want to change that to CSS Know of any good tutorials (for people who used tables before) greets |
