CSS - Css Class Inherited Troubles
Overview
I am having lots of trouble with inheritance when I am making classes. Ultimately I tried to create a simple example but I just don't seem to get what is happening. ----------------------- Question Why would the text contained in the <li> tags of "main" & "submain" be colored yellow? I was expecting "main" to be black and "submain" to be yellow. ----------------------- Sample Code PHP Code: <html> <head> <title>test css</title> <style type="text/css"> .main {color:black;} .main h3 {font-size:4.0em;} .main ul, li {font-size:1.4em;list-style:none;padding: 5px;} .submain {color:red;} .submain h3{font-size: 2.0em;} .submain ul, li {color:yellow;font-size:1.0em;padding: 5px;} </style> </head> <body> <!-- main test --> <div class="main"> <h3>Testing Main</h3> <ul> <li>Main Test</li> <li>Main Test</li> <li>Main Test</li> </ul> </div> <div class="submain"> <h3>Testing Submain</h3> <ul> <li>submain test</li> <li>submain test</li> <li>submain test</li> </ul> </div> </body> </html> Anyhelp is appreciated. Cheers, CH... I have been working on this issue further and came up with one solution I think. Basically I think it is incorrect to do this: PHP Code: .submain ul, li {color:yellow;font-size:1.0em;padding: 5px;} So this way works but is is correct? PHP Code: .submain ul, .submain li {color:yellow;font-size:1.0em;padding: 5px;} The way I am thinking this may be interpretted is all <ul> in submain and all <li> in submain will be yellow. My first way I think I was saying is all <ul> in submain and then all <li> will be yellow. This was over riding the first call which was all <li> red. Hmmm.. Am I thinking correctly now? Similar TutorialsI've got a div that incorporates some inline styling. Looks fine on a blank page, but when I insert it into a more complex page it inherits all the styling of the stylesheets. Is there anyway to I can have this div ignore all inherited styling and just format itself according to browser defaults and its own inline styling? Can someone please take a look at my CSS on this page and let me know what fixes I need to implement/read about in order to get the page to look acceptable in IE. I've checked and both the CSS and HTML are valid. I'm feeling more and more confident in my CSS abilities as time goes by but I can't seem to get a grasp on ALL the fixes IE seems to require. Thanks in advance! stuboo Hi, First post, first issue ... I am having some difficulties with the tag <table> in a fluid layout. without the attribute width set to 100%, the table is at the the top. If I set it up, the table goes down to the bottom. Can anybody explain why? ----------- CODE -------------- <!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" xml:lang="en"> <head> <TITLE>Title Here</TITLE> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> <STYLE> #outer_wrapper { width: 800px; } #container { float: left; } #left { background: #BBB; width: 150px; float: left; padding: 0px; border: solid 1px #000; } #main { background: #EEE; padding:4px; padding-left:160px; border: solid 1px #000; } table { border: solid 1px #A4A4A4; } </STYLE> </head> <body> <div id="outer_wrapper"> <div id="container"> <div id="left"> left here<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/> </div> <div id="main"> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" width="100%"> <tr> <td align="top" valign="top"><b>Line 1</b></td> <td align="right">Line 2</td> </tr> </table> </div> </div> </div> <div id="footer"> footer here </div> </center> </body> </html> Here's my page.

Hi all probably a stupid question but i cant find the answer i am making a site and when i zoom out in the browser the page sits to the left, how do i make it stay in the center Cheers K, finally got a working drop down menu, pretty well exactly how I want it...however, in IE it works properly, but in FF it seems to grow in width and cover the drop down part up. Probably somethin to do with a preset 'td' width in my html, but not sure. Here is what i'm talking about, and here is the style sheet. Any help is greatly appreciated! http://turkeybot.info/flash/play.php?id=121 When you go below the game eand hover where it says to, the instructions for the game come up. Problem is, the z-index I set for it isn't working, and it's letting the form below it override it. What's the problem? is there any way to have the background of a table be at 50% opacity and the text be at 100% opacity? i've been playing with this code: style="filter:Alpha(Opacity=xx)" ...where xx is 50 or 100 and have placed it within the <table> tag and also within a <font> tag, but nothing seems to work. the font wants to be the same opacity as the table. is there any way around this? on a possible workaround, i've tried using semi-transparent PNG file as the background of the table, and that didn't work. i couldn't get the PNG file to do semi-transparent. it wanted to do a diffusion transparency, which looked like @ss. I have been setting up a wordpress blog for my family, and have run into troubles getting it to show up the right way between browsers. In older versions of IE (5.0, 6,0), the blog posts are pushed down, and begin where the sidebars end. I am using a newer version of IE and the blog shows up perfectly. I have family members who use the older versions, and it shows up terrible. Is there anything that can be done with it? I am fairly new at web design. I am using the RockinPaper 3 column theme if that helps at all. Thanks for any help and advice! Howdy, Very simple css layout, but IE (7) is messing it up. What else is new. Header div is centered with the curved top border (16 pixels high), uses background tag in css. body mas a main background, which is centered. it's an 800pixel wide gif with 20 pixel sides which leaves 760 white pixels in the middle. main container is 760 pixels wide, and centered thus creating the layout. header and body combined should make a seamless border around the main container. but it doesn't in IE. why not?!?! it works well in FFX, Chrome, Safari, Opera. argh. can't seem to post urls, so i'll have to post my code: html: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title>GreenSky Capital Inc. :: Customized Financial Solutions :: Home</title> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1250"> <link href="css/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> </head> <body> <div id="header"></div> <div id="container_main"> Put some text here. </div> </body> </html> CSS: Code: html,body {

Hello everyone. I am new to CSS and I have been trying to create a CSS layout composed of a 2x2 grid using DIVs. The top cells have fixed width and height, with the bottom ones having fixed width and variable height depending on the content. I achieved this with success as they look as intended in IE8 (don't have 9 available) and the latest versions of Firefox and Opera. In Chrome (and Safari for that matter), sometimes it will render just fine or look one or two pixels out of place depending on the width of the browser window.

The lines shown are part of the background, as it was the easiest solution I came across with to make it look like the columns go all the way down to the bottom of the page. So, I believe my issue lies on the DIVs and/or the centered background but I have no idea how to work around this. Thanks in advance for your time and advice. Cheers http://www.sdtars.com/development/ I can't figure out why I can't get them to popup over the other menus. Can anyone see what I am doing wrong? Thanks! I have a section of my application where I need a menu containing forms in a box aligned to the left. When one of these form names are clicked, I need it to unhide the div and display the proper form to the right of the menu. This works fine in Internet Explorer, but when the forms become visible in Firefox they completely cover up the menu. Here's what I've got: CSS Code: #forms .form { display: none; position: absolute; left: 0; top: 0; }
#forms { position: relative; }
#adminbar { float: left; border: 1px solid #000; padding: 5px; position: relative; }
HTML Code: <div id="adminbar">
<a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="hide(getElementsByClassName('form')); show('software');">Software</a>
</div>
<div id="forms">
<div id="software" class="form">
<h1>Software Administration</h1>
<form class="ttcform">
<fieldset>
<legend>New Software Item</legend>
<ol>
<li>
<label>Software Name</label>
<input type="text" size="30" name="name"/>
</li>
</ol>
</fieldset>
<fieldset class="submit" align="center">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Create Software"/>
</fieldset>
</form>
<hr>
<form class="ttcform">

Javascript (In case you need it): Code: function show(el) {
if(typeof el == 'string') {
document.getElementById(el).style.display = 'block';
return true;
}
else if(typeof el == 'object') {
for(var i = 0; i < el.length; i++) {
if(typeof el == 'object') {
hide(el[i].id);
}
else {
hide(el[i]);
}
}
return true;
}
return false;
}
function hide(el) {
if(typeof el == 'string') {
document.getElementById(el).style.display = 'none';
return true;
}
else if(typeof el == 'object') {
for(var i = 0; i < el.length; i++) {
if(typeof el == 'object') {
hide(el[i].id);
}
else {
hide(el[i]);
}
}
return true;
}
return false;
}
function getElementsByClassName(className) {
var retEls = [];
var els = document.getElementsByTagName('*');
for(var i = 0; i < els.length; i++) {
if(els[i].className == className) {
retEls.push(els[i]);
}
}
return retEls
}
So I've got this XHTML: Code: <div class="mainNav"> <ul class="mainNavUL"> <li><a class="empty" href="#"></a> <a href="#">Home</a></li> <li> <a class="unselected" href="#"></a> <a href="#">News</a> <ul class="subNavUL" id="menu_news"> <li><a href="#">Agriculture</a></li> <li><a href="#">Business</a></li> <li><a href="#">Education</a></li> <li><a href="#">Environment</a></li> <li><a href="#">Politics</a></li> <li><a href="#">Special Reports</a></li> <li><a href="#">Transportation</a></li> </ul> </li> </ul> </div> What I'm attempting to do through CSS, is control the styling of the anchor classes 'unselected' and 'selected' through inheritance only. The reason I'm doing this is because I'll have other UL's with different classes, which will have the same structure as above. I've tried everything I can think of, but am clearly hitting a brick wall. Any ideas? I have a layout of the following structu Code: #page {
background-color:#000000;
width: 780px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}
#content {
width: 650px;
height: 500px;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
float: right;
}
#sidebar {
width: 130px;
height: 450px;
background-color:#666666;
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
float: right;
}
Inside the body tags, I placed the following code: Code: <div id="page"> <div id="content">/*some content*/</div> <div id="sidebar">/*navigation*/</div> </div> Now I am running in the following troubles. As you can see, the parent layer (page) has a black background, the others are white and grey, respectively. I would like the parent (background) layer to grow with the navigation/content layers, dependent on which layer is higher/taller... get the idea? Thus far, the parent layer "page" does not show at all, neither does its black background. Any idea how to make it dependable? I've been trying hard to figure it out, can't seem to do it. Perhaps the float attibutes cause it not to have any influence on the parent layer? Thanks guys! Hello, I am having some problems in IE with image backgrounds. As you can see the difference in my site with IE and FF the background images are all off. This is caused by the padding I am assumming. I put a red border around the trouble spots so you could see whats going on. Any ideas? Thanks Hi all, Building a test site here. The drop-down menus work fine in FF and Opera, but in IE, the sub-menus appear to the right when they come up. I can't figure out why. Help? Also, for some reason, the submenus seem awfully wide. I can't seem to find the place in the CSS that controls this width. Help? Thanks! Chris hey, I got a table, every <td> in the table got the css class .regular. (<td class='regular'>). When the user moves their mouse over a row, that row should change color. This works with the following code: <tr onmouseover='this.className=\"hoverRow\"'> However, this only works if the td's in that row have no class set yet. And since all td's in my table have a class set allready, i cant use this. How can i overwrite the class of the td's by the class for the whole row? thanks in advance |
