CSS - Unwanted Extra Space After Form Area (only With Ie)
When I browse the website with internet explorer, in the search section, there is a space after the form area. How can I remove it?
http://www.refinethetaste.com/html/ Similar TutorialsIt seems the form that creates unwanted space in IE. Site in question: http://www.phaseninedesign.com/p/uber/ HTML: Code: <div id="topMenu"> <form action="#" method="post"> <div id="reviewsBut"><a href="#"><img src="images/reviewsBut.gif" alt="Reviews" /></a></div> <div id="articlesBut"><a href="#"><img src="images/articlesBut.gif" alt="Articles" /></a></div> <div id="aboutBut"><a href="#"><img src="images/aboutBut.gif" alt="About" /></a></div> <div id="contactBut"><a href="#"><img src="images/contactBut.gif" alt="Contact" /></a></div> <div id="sponsorsBut"><a href="#"><img src="images/sponsorsBut.gif" alt="Sponsors" /></a></div> <div id="loginButTop"><a href="#"><img src="images/loginButTop.gif" alt="Sponsors" /></a></div> <div id="passwordBoxTop"><input type="password" id="password" onFocus="if(this.value=='password')value=''" onBlur="if(this.value=='')value='password';" value="password" /></div> <div id="userTopBox"><input type="text" id="user" onFocus="if(this.value=='Username')value=''" onBlur="if(this.value=='')value='Username';" value="Username" /></div> </form> </div> ----------------------- CSS: Code: #topMenu{ width: 1005px; height: 23px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; background-color: #282a1d; background-image: url(images/topMenuBG.gif); border-right: 1px solid black; border-left: 1px solid black; } I've tried moving the form outside of the dive that its in, but that makes the space even bigger. Hi everyone. I have a header image and directly below it the div that holds my navigation. In FF it works great, but in IE I get about a 5px space inbetween the header image and the navigation div. The navigation div is colored so it's really easy to tell where it stops and starts in IE. Here's my CSS code: Code: body { background-image: url(images/bgshadow.gif); background-repeat: repeat-y; background-position: 50% 0; text-align: center; margin: 0 0; padding: 0 0; } #content { width: 738px; margin-top: 0; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 0; margin-left: auto; padding: 0 0; vertical-align: top; } #header { width: 738px; margin: 0 0; padding: 0 0; } #nav { width: 738px; height: 25px; margin: 0 0; padding: 0 0; background-color: #86462F; vertical-align: top; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; font-size: 12px; color: #fff; } #nav ul { width: auto; float: right; margin: 5px 0 0 0; padding: 0 0; } #nav ul li { margin: 0 25px 0 0; padding: 0 0; list-style-type: none; display: inline; } and my markup: Code: <div id="content"> <div id="header"> <img src="images/header.jpg" width="738" height="100" /></div> <div id="nav"> <ul> <li>Home</li> <li>Register</li> <li>Go Play!</li> </ul> </div> I've tested the white-space bug in windows IE (taking out all of the white-space in the markup) but that only had a marginal effect on the list. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks, -Brian Hello, im working on styling an unordered list into a file tree. So far, so good. However, do you see that space that is showing in between each <li>, between the T (elbow2.gif) image, its very unwanted. Code: /* -- FILE BROWSER -- */ #browseFiles { padding: 0 0 0 20px;/* 000pix handles indent */ } #browseFiles ul { font: 10px sans-serif; color: #000; list-style:none; margin: 0; padding: 0; } #browseFiles li { /*display:compact; height: 18px;*/ padding: 0; margin: 0; } #browseFiles .fileDiv { height: 18px; background: url(images/elbow2.gif) no-repeat scroll 0 0; } #browseFiles .fileLink { padding: 0 0 0 13px; margin: 3px 0 0 0; } #browseFiles .dir { list-style:none; font: bold 10px sans-serif; margin:0; padding:0; } #browseFiles .file { padding: 0 0 0 3px; margin:0; } Heres the html Code: <div id='browseFiles'> <ul> <li class='file'> <div class='fileDiv'> <a class='fileLink'> <img class'fileIcon' src='images/file.gif' /> </a> </div> </li> <li class='file'> <div class='fileDiv'> <a class='fileLink'> <img class'fileIcon' src='images/file.gif' /> </a> </div> </li> <li class='file'> <div class='fileDiv'> <a class='fileLink'> <img class'fileIcon' src='images/file.gif' /> </a> </div> </li> </ul> </div> Thank you for the help in advanced. Hi there, I'm building a page that requires 100% width & height, and absolutely NO margins on any side. I've applied the following inside my CSS: body { margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; background-color: 000000; } For this to work in Firefox, I've also had to add the same code just above the head tag (inconvenient, but I don't mind). My problem is the unwanted right margin that appears in IE. I have no idea how to remedy this. You may view the page here. Thanks so much! EDIT: Realized this is not an HTML issue. If a mod could move this to the CSS forum I would appreciate it. Thanks Please take a look at this page: http://www.4xp.net/template2/ I cannot get the space under the horizontal nav bar to go away. It has to do with the image links, because if I remove then and put plain text in there, that space goes away. It only happens in IE, the space isnt there in FF. Here is my css PHP Code: body { margin-top: 5px; margin-bottom: 5px; background-image: url('images/bg.jpg'); } #header { width: 900px; height: 90px; padding: 0; margin: 0; text-align: left; background-image: url('images/header_bg.jpg'); } img { padding: 0; margin: 0; } #menu { border-top: 1px solid #003366; border-bottom: 1px solid #003366; width: 100%; height: 25px; background: url('images/menu_bg.jpg'); background-repeat: repeat-x; text-align: left; } .menulink { margin-left: 20px; height: 25px; } #page { width: 900px; border: 1px solid #000000; text-align: center; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; } #status { width: 900px; height: 25px; vertical-align: middle; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; color: #003333; margin: 0; padding: 0; border: 0; } Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks everyone! I am trying to style a css layout. I keep getting a vertical space between two different block containers. here is the html: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <title></title> <meta name="keywords" content="" /> <meta name="description" content="" /> <link href="default.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <div id="header"> <div id="menu"> </div> </div> </div> </body> </html> Here is the CSS: Code: #wrapper{ margin: 0 auto; width: 977px; } #header { margin: 0; background: url(images/header_01.jpg) no-repeat 0 0; width: 977px; height: 198px; } #menu{ margin: 0; background: url(images/header_02.jpg) no-repeat 100% 0; float: left; width: 977px; height: 44px; position:relative; top: 100% } My theory: the top part of the header is 154 px tall. The bottom part is 44px tall. That makes 198px height. so with header being 198px tall, and the smaller image with a relative position 100% down from the top should correctly line up the two images. But yet I have a HUGE gap?!?! Why? Even if I put 154px instead of 100% for top ... it will not line up correctly. I am trying to style a form using CSS instead of tables but am getting unwanted space above form elements when i use float:right to position them to the right of the prompt text. I have spent some time reading about the problem which appears to be an error with IEs rendering of CSS. I have tried several solutions posted on the web with no success. Can anyone recommend a solution to my problem.

I dont. I have a CSS layout .. there are two main divs side by side, the navigation rests at the top of the right div. problem is in IE 6 there is so much extra space at the top that my navigation doesnt line up with my header .. in FF its no problem. What is the workaround for this? So I am trying to move from designing in <tables> and move on to the beauty of the CSS box-model design. I have been inspired by one of the ZenGarden designs and wanted to see if I could try and duplicate it's flow. I am running into a problem. I have created the outer box "#mainBox" and nested within this I have a child "#pageHeader." Problem is that there is this big amount of space (that is present in both IE6 AND FireFox 1.0) at the bottom of "#pageHeader." See the attached pic for the exact detail. Here is my code: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/loose.dtd"> <html><head><title>The Shalom Foundation</title> <style type="text/css"> <!-- body { text-align:center; background-color:#666666; margin:0 0 50px 0; /* top right bottom left */ } p{ padding:0; margin:0; text-align:justify; } #mainBox { float:right; margin:9px 12px 0 0; padding:0px; width:733px; text-align:left; background-color:#999999; } #pageHeader{ background: url(images/layout/header.jpg) no-repeat top left; padding:0; margin:0; text-indent: -15000px; height: 290px; overflow: hidden; } #nav{ position:absolute; right:100px; margin:0; background: url(images/layout/menu.jpg) no-repeat top left; padding:0; margin:0; width:136px; height: 302px; overflow: hidden; } --> </style> </head> <body> <div id="mainBox"> <div id="pageHeader">The Shalom Foundation</div> <div id="nav">Nav</div> <div id="contentHdr"><table width="100%" height="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"><tr><td valign="middle"><img src="images/layout/hdr_about_us.gif"></td></tr></table></div> <div id="content"><p>Magnus es, domine, et laudabilis valde: magna virtus tua, et sapientiae tuae non est numerus. et laudare te vult homo, aliqua portio creaturae tuae, et homo circumferens mortalitem suam, circumferens testimonium peccati sui et testimonium, quia superbis resistis: et tamen laudare te vult homo, aliqua portio creaturae tuae.tu excitas, ut laudare te delectet, quia fecisti nos ad te et inquietum est cor nostrum, donec requiescat in te. da mihi, domine, scire et intellegere, utrum sit prius invocare te an laudare te, et scire te prius sit an invocare te. sed quis te invocat nesciens te? aliud enim pro alio potest invocare nesciens. an potius invocaris, ut sciaris? quomodo autem invocabunt, in quem non crediderunt? aut quomodo credent sine praedicante? et laudabunt dominum qui requirunt eum. quaerentes enim inveniunt eum et invenientes laudabunt eum. quaeram te, domine, invocans te, et invocem te credens in te: praedicatus enim es nobis. invocat te, domine, fides mea, quam dedisti mihi, quam inspirasti mihi per humanitatem filii tui, per ministerium praedicatoris tui.</p></div> <div id="rightNav">rightNav</div> <div id="pageFooter">pageFooter</div> </div> </body> </html> Thanks in advanced for any help! I'm working on a web site that has a jFlow slideshow (not implemented just yet) and I was mocking up a page with just a plain img in its place. When the page is viewed in FF 3.5, there is extra space to the right and bottom of the image. However, it shows as expected in IE8. I can't figure this out for the life of me. If I "use border box model" from the Google Web Developer toolbar in FF, it shows as desired as well. Here's a link to the file: http://www.websimage.com/3238/index2.html I've been trying to figure this out for a while now and I'm getting nowhere but frustrated, so any help you could provide would be *greatly* appreciated. EDIT: I've found some information regarding box-models, and have applied the -moz-box-model: border-box; which seems to have eliminated the additional space within the gray div...however, there is an additional 10px of unwanted padding on the right & left of it now. I can live with this, but I don't want to if I don't have to. Edit #2: If I take out the margin-left: auto; and margin-right: auto; (to center it) the extraneous padding is not on the left, but is added to the extraneous padding on the right. All the math adds up when it comes to the widths and padding specified for the respective "wrappers" so I'm at a loss as to what's causing this. I have an extra PHPNuke (Ravennuke 2.02) module for the start page. Several pieces of information are displayed in various cells of a table. I have a problem were there is some extra space at the beginning of a table that I cannot get rid of. I saved the output and uploaded he http://www.linux-tutorial.info/index_test3.html after the site title and before the tag line "The place where you learn Linux", there is a large space. In this example, the title is in a separate table, followed by a new table for the information blocks. If I put them in the same table the space appears before the title block. The relevant block of code looks like this: Code: <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"> <tr valign="top"> <td class="welcome_title_box" valign="top" colspan="2"> <div align="center" class="welcome_main_title"> Welcome to the <br>Linux Knowledge Base and Tutorial</div> </td></tr></table> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"> <tr><td valign="top" width="50%"> <span class="subtitle">"The place where you learn Linux"</span> <br><br> Looking for an in-depth and easy-to-understand introduction to Linux? Then look no further! <br> We don\'t just show you how to execute a handful of commands and use a few utilities. The Linux Tutorial goes beyond the basics, providing you with the knowledge necessary to get the most out of your Linux system. <br><br> Jump right in by clicking <a href="http://www.linux-tutorial.info/modules.php?name=MContent&pageid=224"> here</A>. </td> If I removed the highlighted code, the space appears before the site title. If I remove the whole DIV containing the title, I still have the space above the tag line. This says to me that it is not related to the division. It seems that this row or the table itself is pulling the formatting from somewhere else. That would be a logical consequence of the cascading aspect of CSS, but I do no see where it is gettign the space from. Admittedly I am not all that good with CSS/formatting, so it is possible (if not likely) that I overlooked something. Note that in the index_test3.html, I close the table at the end of the first row (prior to the list of news and threads) then open a new table: Code: </table><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" > If I change BGCOLOR for the first table and then change the line above to this: Code: </table>HERE<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" bgcolor="RED"> The space is after the word "HERE". If I remove this code, the extra space is right after the row/div with the site title and before the row with the tag-line. This all make me think that the extra space is being added before the next table, as opposed to at the end of the previous table. There are a number of posts in the CSS forum that I tried like changing the margin (style="margin: 0px"), but none of the solutions solved the problem. I have tried all sorts of combinations of spacing and alignment, but I cannot get rid of this space. I have tried loaded the page with multiple browsers (Konqueror, FIrefox, IE 6) with the same results, so I do not think it is a browser specific issue. Any and all input is greatly appreciated. I am working on a site and have found a problem that I can't explain on my own. I would like someone to look at this site: http://www.canada-training-group.ca and tell me why there is extra space at the top in IE but not in Firefox. Thanks, Timmy-d I've been trying to setup a basic template for a site. In firefox I got it looking pretty good, but in IE there seems to be about 3 pixels of extra space to the left of the header image. The url is: http://igocity.aoeex.com/ If you look in firefox, you can see the black box where the login form is, and the banner image to the right of it are side-by-side with no space between them. This is what I want. In IE, there is about 3 pixels of white space between the login box and the banner image. This causes the image to drop down below the login box instead of it being beside it normally. For now, I've expanded the width of the outer div so they are side by side, but with the space. I can't figure out why this space is there, or how to get rid of it. Any suggestions? The HTML for the header looks like so: Code: <div id="headerDiv"> <div id="loginBox"> <form method="post" action="/login.php"> <input type="text" value="" class="txtUsername" name="txtUsername" /><br /> <input type="password" value="" class="txtPassword" name="txtPassword" /><br /> <a href="login_help.php" class="loginTroubleLink">>> login trouble?</a> <input type="submit" value="log in" name="btnLogin" class="btnLogin"/> </form> </div><img src="images/road_trip_banner.jpg" width="540" height="80" id="headerBannerImage"/> </div> CSS can be seen at: http://igocity.aoeex.com/css/template_css.css I have 2 columns. The main one and the sidebar. The problem is that the sidebar extends down the page further then the main column. I am using a color in the background. The color does not extend all the way down. The main area stops about half way down the sidebar and just leaves white space there. The whole page is colored except for this square of white in the middle. Also if I extend the main area content to be longer then the sidebar then the sidebar will have white underneath it instead. For some reason, I cannot for the life of me figure out why Firefox is adding space at the top of my page. I have a container div that contains my header, body, and footer. I have done this: Code: #container{ width: 732px; margin: 0px auto; } Too me that should fix the issue. I even tried applying that code to the body{ ... } but that doesn't work either. Has anyone else gone through this before. There is no space in IE6 or IE7.

You can see what I mean at www . deepwaterchurch . com I'm having a weird quirk happening at the bottom of a page I am developing. There is extra space, maybe 80-100px of it, showing up at the bottom in my container div (which I have id'd as "reality").
