CSS - Strange Ie Behaviour - Overflow:hidden Not Working. Two Elements Do Not Display.
Similar TutorialsOverflow:hidden, is supposed to expand a box (unless a height is set) to it's contents (just another quirky, stupid CSS rule). I have this working on all browsers except IE6 in one area. I've placed a green box around the problem area, which is the footer of this page: http://www.poweredpages.com/newtarget/ctia/ You'll see it looks fine in most places but is a skinny line in IE. I need it to render correctly because it has some padding attributes. Here it is in the css file: .footer{ padding:10px 35px 10px 35px; overflow:hidden; } Any thoughts why it's not working in IE6? Hi all, I have the following div definition: Code: .adddet {
position:absolute;
top:50px;
width:450px;
right:5px;
padding:5px;
border:1px solid black;
background:white;
}
in my stylesheet.css and the following block of code in my php script: Code: <a name='details'> <div class='adddet'> <b>Your details:</b><br><br> <form name=login action='newcart.php#details' method=post> E-mail address: <input type=text name=email> <input type=submit name=act value='I am a new customer'><br> I am a returning customer and my password is: <input type=password name=pass> <input type=submit name=act value='Go'></form> <small><a href='javascript:showrem();'>Forgot password?</a></small> </div> What I want is for the link 'Forgot your password?' to appear next to the 'Go' button at the bottom of the div. This is does if it's just plain text without the anchor tags. As soon as I add the anchor tags (as above) the text leaps to the top of the div in (seemingly) it's own box with a 1px black border around it. To see a demonstration, have a look at www.pennymead.com/demo.php Full source for the above page is below: 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> <link href="stylesheet.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> </head> <body> <a name='details'><div class='adddet'> <b>Your details:</b><br><br> <form name=login action='#' method=post> E-mail address: <input type=text name=email> <input type=submit name=act value='I am a new customer'><br>I am a returning customer and my password is: <input type=password name=pass> <input type=submit name=act value='Go'></form> <small><a href='javascript:showrem();'>Forgot password?</a></small> </div> </body> </html> One final note is that this only seems to happen in Internet Explorer, certainly Google Chrome shows the text in the expected position. Many thanks in advance for any help you can give with this. Regards, vsource. Hi, I'm styling a form which has been marked-up as a definition list with labels inside <dt> tags and fields inside <dd> tags. Here is the CSS I am using to make it look nice as a two column layout: Code: form#requestinfo {width: 410px;}
form#requestinfo dt {clear: left; float: left; width: 95px; }
form#requestinfo dd {width: 305px; margin-left: 105px; padding: 4px 0 4px 0;}
It's looking good in firefox, but IE 6/WIN makes a mess of it - giving a full 105px left margin to the <dd> rather than allowing the <dt> to sit on top of its margin. Any ideas how this can be solved? Thanks. I am currently developing a website, on which I overlay a copyright message onto images with 50% opacity for the message, using the following CSS: Code: .message{
width:100%;
text-align:center;
z-index:5;
color:#33FFFF;
margin:0px;
padding:0px;
position:relative;
top:-18px;
background-color:#000;
opacity:.50; filter:alpha(opacity=50); -moz-opacity:0.50;
}
This works fine, and gives me exactly the result I want. HOWEVER, now I want to overlay an absolutely positioned div for a pop-up form. Where this overlays the semi-opaque region, In IE7 the semi-opaque region is visble, as if it had a higher z-index. It works fine in FireFox Chrome and Opera Any ideas ? hello! My name is Marco, I'm italian, I hope nobody will be hurted by my english. Consider this code: Code: <html><head><style>

if you try to downsize the width of the browser window (to 100px, for example) the yellow background will move to left I hope the problem is clear exposed...thank you This is working fine in FF, but IE ignores it. I have large bottom margin and large negative bottom padding contained in a wrapper with overflow set to hidden, to keep my columns the same length for different content, which seems to be ignored in IE. Other than that I'm pretty happy with the site, but I don't really know what I'm doing, so I don't really know what I'm doing wrong.. Can anyone help? Structure; Code: <div id="divBranding">

<div id="divWrapper">

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. Is there a way to have overflow content of a DIV hidden at the top of the DIV instead of the bottom? For instance, if I have a DIV that is 200px in height and the content within the DIV ("My top content ... my bottom content.") exceeds 200px: Code: <div style="height: 200px; overflow: hidden;"> My top content<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br> My bottom content. </div> I want the "My bottom content." to always show at the bottom of the DIV, but the "My top content..." to be hidden. I hope this makes since. Thanks! -Chris For some reason overflow hidden is not working in chrome, ff and ie both seem to work as expected. I am totally lost here? Code:

While trying to get text-overflow: ellipsis going with list items, I noticed that bullets were disappearing in Webkit (Safari and Chrome) and Opera browsers. I narrowed the problem down to overflow: hidden. I understand why putting overflow: hidden on a list item can hide the bullets (firefox also hides them in that case), but I'm putting it on a div inside the list item, and the bullets are still going away in those browsers (firefox and ie still show them, but not webkit and opera). This illustrates what I'm trying to do: http://sethsticco.net/files/possiblebug.html ..and this narrows the problem down to overflow: hidden: http://sethsticco.net/files/simpler.html The first list is normal, with no styling. The second one has overflow: hidden applied to the <li> tags. The bullets disappear for firefox, webkit, and opera, but not ie. The third list is the important one. It only applies overflow: hidden to the <div> tags inside the <li> tags, but bullets still disappear for Webkit and Opera. The fourth list is only there to show what happens if I try using <span> tags. They act like divs when they get display: block, and they don't get the ellipsis when they're inline. I feel like I've found a bug, but regardless, I really just want to get text-overflow: ellipsis going on list items. Does anyone have any ideas? Does anyone know why overflow:hidden does not work when height is given in percentage? The following example does not work and all values from 1 to 20 are shown on screen ... Code: <div style="overflow:hidden;height:10%;border:1px solid green;"> 1<br /> 2<br /> 3<br /> 4<br /> 5<br /> 6<br /> 7<br /> 8<br /> 9<br /> 10<br /> 11<br /> 12<br /> 13<br /> 14<br /> 15<br /> 16<br /> 17<br /> 18<br /> 19<br /> 20<br /> </div> Changing height:10% to height:50px makes the overflow:hidden works fine. Does anyone know how I can make the overflow:hidden css rule with height rule given in percentage? Title sounds a bit contradictory, I know, but please bear with me... I'm building a simple chat application with html, javascript php and mysql. The technical stuff (php/ajax etc) i'm absolutly fine with; what I'm struggling with is the CSS to make it behave how I want. I've got a prrof-of-concept page working 90% how I want, here http://chris.loyaltymatters.co.uk/chat-demo/ This works by having an outer div of position:relative and an inner div of position:absolute; bottom:0px so that as new content gets added to the bottom, older text goes up. So far so good....but I want a scroll bar so that I can scroll up to see previous comments. Giving the inner div a height value gives me a scroll bar, but the position remains at the top and new content gets hidden towards the bottom html: Code: <div id='container'> <div id='chatRoom'> </div> </div> css Code: #container {
width:500px;
height:500px;
margin:50px auto;
border:1px solid black;
position:relative;
overflow-y:scroll;
overflow-x:hidden;
}
#chatRoom {
position:absolute;
bottom:0px;
margin:5px;
width:100%;
}
To summarise, all I need now is a scroll bar so that I can scroll up many thanks in advance I had a problem earlier with my containing DIV pushing too wide which was resolved by adding "overflow:hidden" to my containing DIV. The problem is now that it's cutting off the sides of one of my graphics. At the bottom of my page, I have a link which you can click that will (through the magic of javascript) reveal divs on either side of my main content (the link at the bottom of the page says "reveal sea creature") When overflow:hidden was NOT on my containing DIV, I had the problem with all the extra space, but these revealing divs worked fine. Now that I add overflow:hidden, the extra space is gone, but the divs are cut off. I've tried pushing everything to the left which seems to make the DIV on the right work fine, but the left is still a problem. I realize this doesn't make sense without code, so here's the site. www . deepwaterchurch . com Thanks so much. Hello, I have a problem appearing only in IE8, but I don't seem to find the exact bug and solution. In this page http://www.cracowflats.com/index.php/search/show/id/181 there is a Details area (bottom left) where titles have a green background. For some reason this green background appears in other parts of the page. In other browsers, the whole page has a white background, as it should. 1) With this code in theme.css a {color:#62860b; } h3, h4 { color: #70af1d;} .color_title { background: #76a637;color:#fff;} .logo h1 a { color: #62860b !important;} it appers everywhere and the whole background of the page is green (should be white). 2) when I add an "overflow: hidden;" here .color_title { background: #76a637;color:#fff; overflow: hidden;} it gets better, as the main area is white. But I still have a lot of green on the footer (and tabs). If I could find out to which bug it refers, it would be easier to find a solution. Any hint would be appreciated! Thanks! Luca Hello all I have an elastic design in which an image clips to the appropriate size via overflow: hidden. Is there any way to control which sides are cropped? What I mean is, can one emulate the background-position property for IMGes with overflow: hidden? Thanks Tom Hello, after a few hours I managed to identify the CSS element responsible for this problem. However so far I have no solution on how I could solve this problem. Basically the problem is very minor but still frustrating. I am using the following command to set a DIV element with transparent background; Code: filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient (gradientype=0,startColorstr='#60ff0000', endColorstr='#60ff0000'); The DIV element becomes transparent. However the parent element - which is set with the CSS attribute overflow:hidden - is always displaying an extra pixel on the right of the container. This might not be clear at first, which is why I attached the following screen shot. (the light red line is the extra 1px I am referring to) If I remove the transparency CSS attribute for IE8 then this extra 1px will disappear. However that means loosing the wanted transparency. I have also developed the following example of the problem; Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Does anyone know what's causing the problem and how I can solve it. It is true that 1px might not sound much. But it still frustrates me knowing that it is there and the fact that on Firefox all works great. Hey everyone, I was trying to figure out what the default display properties for a div are. What I'm trying to figure it out for is because I want to be able to set up other elements to behave the same way. This way I don't have a zillion DIVs on my page. I could set it so that My header uses something like: Code: HTML <body> <h1 id="header">Header</h1> This way I could use CSS to cause it to span the full width of the page and behave the way I'm used to having things behave. I think it might just be a width:100% but I can't find anything on it. But if I remember correctly you have to set a DIV to display:block to be able to define a width. Hi, I have an issue with two elements in a container that have a gap between them but I cannot see where the gap is coming from. Basically, I have a standard centered page layout, the relevant CSS for holding the elements (a banner and then a nav menu underneath) is: Code:
body {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
text-align: center;
}
#container {
width: 1024px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
text-align: left;
background-color:#FFFFFF;
}
And the CSS for the elements is: Code:
#topbanner {
width:974px;
}
#menubar {
width:974px;
float:left;
}
The banner goes across the top of the page and the idea is that the menubar (which contains a number of images and their rollovers) fits directly underneath without any gap. But there seems to be white space of about 5px in all browsers and I can't see why. I tried adding a clearfloat into the HTML, i.e: Code:
.clearfloat {
clear:both;
height:0;
font-size: 1px;
line-height: 0px;
}
But this doesn't do anything. HTML is currently: Code: <body> <div id="container"> <div class="topbanner"><img src="image/banner2.png" alt="banner" /></div> <div class="clearfloat"></div> <div class="menubar">(various button images)</div> <div class="clearfloat"></div> Any ideas as this has me stumped! Hi Their.. I have an html page that contains a form named form1...i want to display another form when the button in form1 have submitted....It's a matter of (show/hide) html elements...Anyone can help..please. Thank you in Advance |
