CSS - Group Of Elastic Divs?
Hello guys, i'm looking for help.
Ok, here is the problem - i have a bunch of "float:left" divs with pic inside each of them. It looks like several rows and columns of pics - but there is always a gap on the right side of a page - on different resolutions there are different number of divs in rows but this gap is always there - smaller or bigger. How can i make this divs to become elastic and fullfil all the horizontal space?? Thanks Similar Tutorialshello geniuses. I know this is likely a very silly question. I am a designer looking to move closer to the 21st century of web development. how do I keep a group of divs generated in the form of a page as I have set up at: http://greentypeoftube.com/div/home1.html basically I want the whole group to be centered regardless of browser window. I've tried a bunch of things, including putting it all in a container, but it just bleeds over. please to help me someone, I appear to be obsessed and am not performing my duties here chained to the desk. - I have another question which may be better separated to another ? but I'll also add it here just in case someone knows both answers... in this same situation, is there a way to allow for the content window to automatically place scrollbars such as if I used an I-frame? thankyou for the genius of help. p Hey All, I'm playing with elastic design for the first time--trying to use ems for all of my lengths, but I'm having a problem with my ems not converting to pixels consistently and I keep running into this using Firebug. For example: Code:
<body>
<div id="page-wrap" class="clearfix">
<div id="left-container"></div>
<div id="center-container"></div>
<div id="right-container"></div>
</div>
<body>
body {
font-size: 62.5%;
}
#page-wrap {
max-width: 96em;
}
#left-container {
position: relative;
float: left;
margin: 1.5em 0 1.5em 1em;
border: 0.1em solid red;
width: 22.8em;
height: 6em;
}
#center-container {
position: relative;
float: left;
margin: 1.5em 0;
border: 0.1em solid red;
padding: 0 1.5em;
width: 44.8em;
height: 6em;
}
#right-container {
position: relative;
float: left;
margin: 1.5em 0 1.5em 1em;
border: 0.1em solid red;
width: 22.8em;
height: 6em;
}
In firebug, the values are computing consistently and thus the right container is getting pushed down because of 3 pxs. In firebug, the computed values a page-wrap = 960px left-container margin-right = 10px border = 1px width = 229 px center-container border = 1px padding (left and right) = 15px width = 449 px right-container margin-left= 10px border = 1px width = 229 px Can anyone help me understand why the widths aren't converting consistently? Why they're adding a pixel? Hi folks, Here's the comp that I'm trying to port over as strictly css/xhtml: http://www.buyblue.org/stg/images/layout1c.gif username:buyblue pass:letmein It's a comp built to fit an 800x600 resolution, however I'm developing it to be a liquid site. And here's the ongoing attempt: http://www.buyblue.org/stg (same user/pass if you need it) As you can see, it's a work in progress. Here's my problem. I need to have the outer glow running down the sides of the content_container, so I created the leftimg and rightimg divs to have a bg image of each respective sides glow. Set them both to 25px, and I'm getting nothing here. Even if I did get it to work, I think this workaround would be a problem because it wouldn't stretch down to the size of the content_container div. Since this is an elastic design, the faux background trick won't work, obviously, and I can't find anything on the web that even remotely touches on something like this. Here's the basic structure of what's going on: Code: Code: <div id="container"> <div id="header"></div> <div id="leftimg"></div> <div id="content_container"> <div id="sidebar-left"></div> <div id="main"></div> <div id="sidebar-right"></div> </div> <div id="rightimg"></div> </div> <div id="footer"></div> Help would be much appreciated! -jack Ok, so I've learned to stay away from tables when you don't need them, and I have an instance where this is the case. I have a container div that has a header, content and a footer. On my home page, I have to divs next to each other with the same height and a div below them towards the right. To simplify my problem, look at this example. Code:
<html>
<body>
<div style="float:right">
Hello there!
</div>
<hr>
</body>
</html>
If there's a "float:right" on that div, the hr tag below doesn't get pushed down. But if I use relative positioning and don't use the floats, I can't put the two top divs next to each other. The other option is to use absolute positioning, but again content below doesn't get pushed down correctly. It seems that using "clear:both" works, but it seems weird that this has to be done. For example if I have floating divs in a container, I can get them to stretch out the container like so: Code:
<html>
<body>
<div style="border: 1px solid #000; ">
<div style="float:right">
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
</div>
<div style="clear: both"></div>
</div>
<hr>
</body>
</html>
Am I missing something fundamental here? Is there a better solution? Thanks in advance. This style is use useful or not @property-group title-style() { color: #004080; font-weight: bold; } @property-group standard-vmargins() { margin: 1.33ex 0; } title, subtitle, titleabbrev { display: block; property-group: title-style(); property-group: standard-vmargins(); } This is not support IE... Centering DIVs inside other DIVs in Firefox? Can it be done in a straight forward way? Setting the inner DIVs float to none seemed to work for IE but not FF. Here's the site in Question: http://www.winchps.vic.edu.au It's a standard fixed width floated DIV columns with a wrapper. One thing it does have is a second DIV inside both columns to display the Gradient background over the top of the repeated background. It works perfect in Firefox & IE7 (with a tweak) but IE6 mkes the sidebar nested div drop below the original sidebar DIV click here for a screenshot for those lucky enough not to have IE6. Here's the CSS code for the basic layout: Code:
body {
font-family: 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;
font-size: 12px;
text-align: center;
margin: 0px 0px 60px 0px;
padding:0px;
border: 0;
line-height: 2;
}
#header {
width: 802px;
}
#wrapper {
width: 802px;
margin:0px;
padding: 0px;
text-align: left;
margin: 0 auto;
background: url(images/bodybg.jpg) center repeat-y;
}
#content {
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
}
#maingrad {
background: url(images/winchcontentgrad.jpg) top left repeat-x;
padding: 10px;
}
#main {
width: 589px;
float: right;
background: url(images/winchcontentbg.jpg) repeat;
border-left: solid 1px #000;
border-right: solid 1px #000;
}
#mainstop {
width: 589px;
float: right;
background: url(images/winchcontentbg.jpg) repeat;
border-left: solid 1px #000;
border-right: solid 1px #000;
border-bottom: solid 1px #000;
font-size: 10px;
}
#sidebargrad {
background: url(images/winchsidebargrad.jpg) top left repeat-x;
padding: 10px 5px 0px 10px;
}
#sidebar {
width: 200px;
float: left;
background: url(images/winchsidebg.jpg) repeat;
line-height: 2;
font-size: 14px;
border-left: solid 1px #000;
border-right: solid 1px #000;
}
I obviously need to put a conditional comment in there, same for what I did for the minor IE7 tweak, but I'm struggling to suss out what's causing it, I haven't found the specific issue on any of the regular sites (PIE etc). Anyone got any ideas? I have some code like this: Code:
<a href="">My Link is Long</a>
<a href="">My Link is Longer Than Yours</a>
The second link is coming at the end of a line and is breaking to the next line in the middle. Is there a way to force the entire <a> tag to go to the next line if it wont all fit on the current line? something like Code:
a {
behavior-when-getting-split-lines: do-not-split;
}
The Example I've read a bunch about how div's won't stretch to accomidate div's inside of them if they overrun the height/min-height set for the container div. How do I get around this? You can see the skeleton of the site above. It's fine unless you resize the window smaller than the content. Alright, I've been working on my own custom border box for a while and I've almost got it, but it has a few problems still. How I do it is I have one div that contains it all (.box) that defines the height and width of the whole box. Then I have three boxRows to lay out the images, and then I define how three cells in each of those rows should behave, very much like how custom borders used to be done with tables. Here are the problems: In both firefox and internet explorer, the bottom row and the far right column actually appear OUTSIDE the .box containing box. There are two additional problems in internet explorer. First, the middle row handles the auto height differently and only expands about 10px instead of the height of the containing box. The second is that the whole middle row for some reason appears to be pushed to the right by about 16px. Any help would be appreciated. Here's the code: HTML: Code: <html> <head> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="reset.css" /> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="testBox.css"> </head> <body> <div class="box"> <div class="boxRowTop"> <div class="boxCellLeft"></div> <div class="boxCellMiddle"></div> <div class="boxCellRight"></div> </div> <div class="boxRowMiddle"> <div class="boxCellLeft"></div> <div class="boxCellMiddle"></div> <div class="boxCellRight"></div> </div> <div class="boxRowBottom"> <div class="boxCellLeft"></div> <div class="boxCellMiddle"></div> <div class="boxCellRight"></div> </div> </body> </html> And here is the layout css file: Code: /* Box classes */
.box {
background: rgb(120,120,120);
height: 200px;
width: 500px;
}
.boxRowTop {
height: 16px;
position: relative;
width:%100;
}
.boxRowMiddle {
height: auto;
width:%100;
position: relative;
}

position: relative;
}
.boxCellLeft {

width: 16px;
}
.boxCellMiddle {
height: 100%;
margin-left: 16px;
margin-right: 16px;
width: auto;
}
.boxCellRight {
height: 100%;
left: 100%;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
width: 16px;
}
/* Define Cell Backgrounds/Images */
.boxRowTop .boxCellLeft {
background: url(../LandingImages/topleft_circ_corner.png) no-repeat;
}
.boxRowTop .boxCellMiddle {
background: url(../LandingImages/top_border.png) repeat-x;
}

background: url(../LandingImages/topright_circ_corner.png) no-repeat;
}
.boxRowMiddle .boxCellLeft {
background: url(../LandingImages/left_border.png) repeat-y;
}
.boxRowMiddle .boxCellMiddle {
background: rgb(255,255,255);
}
.boxRowMiddle .boxCellRight {
background: url(../LandingImages/right_border.png) repeat-y;
}
.boxRowBottom .boxCellLeft {
background: url(../LandingImages/bottomleft_circ_corner.png) no-repeat;
}
.boxRowBottom .boxCellMiddle {
background: url(../LandingImages/bottom_border.png) repeat-x;
}
.boxRowBottom .boxCellRight {
background: url(../LandingImages/bottomright_circ_corner.png) no-repeat;
}
And last, the reset CSS, which I don't think has anything to do with the problems because if I take it out it still has them. Code: html, body, div, span, applet, object, iframe, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, p, blockquote, pre,
a, abbr, acronym, address, big, cite, code, del, dfn, em, img, ins, kbd, q, s, samp,

fieldset, form, label, legend, caption

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated, as I've been working on this for a while! Thanks! hi all i am trying to have a container that contains two divs....one sidecase and one main content problem i am having is getting them to aign across the page - that is the main content page is starting where the sidebar ends......any ideas?? In IE my center div is even with the rest of the columns. in ff it is not. why? My style sheet does not specify a top-margin to be anything other than default ... http://www.nevertap.com/event.php Hi All, I am trying to get to grips with css positioning and am hitting problems. The code below is my complete page (inc css). I am trying to get the 3 divs - leftbox, middlebox and rightbox to sit alongside each other with 5px gaps and all 3 being vertically aligned 5px below the frontsplash div.

It has all gone pear shaped..... any ideas? Thanks. http://www.detroitnewspapers.com/dnp-company.html In IE for windows, the left column (with the gradient) has about a 10px gap between it and the horizontal dark blue bar. This gap doesn't show up on Safari or Firefox (mac), so I'm not sure why it's showing up in IE Windows. I believe it has something to do with the flash div, but I'm a newbie at table-less layouts. Any insight would be much appreciated! Hello I was wondering if any one could help me with a problem with some divs, I would like to create a web page using just css and html which looks like this:- Whay I would like to know is how would I get the divs to keep aliened as in the picture?? Any help would be very appreciated. Hi all, I've got a section of my site with three tabs at the top of it, and I want to change the content in the section depending on which tab is chosen, with a set of divs. I've been told that you can turn divs on and off with a button click. Can anybody tell me how to do this? Cheers Apologies for my crude code. I'm attempting to learn css on the fly. My design is looking right on Macs (Firefox, Safari) but the image gallery I've cobbled together is all wrong on pretty much any browser on a PC. Any ideas? (and also - the menu keeps shifting down about 125px more than it should on IE 6.0, any thought there would be equally appreciated!!) many, many thanks. I'm at a roadblock. charlie Hiya, this is my first time posting here; tia for helping me out with my problem. I am trying to center a 784 wide page, cut up into multiple divs. It's working, but I am getting a problem which I cannot get rid of. I'm using position:relative, and this is making the page scroll as if the images were below each other. They are showing up in the correct spots, but once the page is finished, I end up with another page worth of white space to scroll through (which I do not want.) I hope this explained it correctly. Below is an example of the html and css I am using. Notice the red drops below the final picture then length of the picture itself. Once the entire page is done, it is about 1500px longer than needed. ******************************* HTML ******************************* <html> <head> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="new.css"> </head> <body> <div class="begin"> <div class="header_piece_01"><img src="images/picture_01.jpg"></div> <div class="rocket_logo"><img src="images/picture_02.jpg"><br><img src="images/picture_03.jpg"><br><img src="images/picture_04.jpg"></div> </div> </body> </html> ******************************* new.css ******************************* body { font-family : Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size : 11px; text-align : justify; line-height : 150%; color : #000000; margin : 0px; border : 0px; padding : 0px; background-color : #FFFFFF; } a { text-decoration : none; } a:hover { text-decoration : none; } .begin { width : 784px; background-color : red; margin-left : auto; margin-right : auto; } .header_piece_01 { width : 31px; height : 118px; } .rocket_logo { position : relative; top : -118px; left : 31px; width : 289px; } |
