Hey all,

I need some help with a very basic CSS file. Honestly, it is so basic, that I've never done it before, and I can't get it to work.

So, basically, what I have, is a flash file, that I want to be in the center of my page. However, in the flash file is a banner, that I want to continue at the sides, using repeating backgrounds.

What I need is a simple three column CSS file, where the center has a fixed with of 887px (the width of the swf-file) and the left and right columns change their width to whatever width the visitors web browser has.

I just can't get it to work. Can anyone help me?

Thanks a lot.

Regards.

Can someone please explain why this page looks this way? It's happening in all the browsers used.

here is the way it normally looks, in terms of style. Of course you will not be logged in, so it is not the same content.

I would appreciate an opinion.
Thanks.

If you look at this web site
http://www.mobilvox.com/

you can see when the screen is smaller than what they designed for the scrollbars come into the window and it scrolls.

I've been using the code below, and I can't seem to get the same behavoir.

Code:

 <style type="text/css">
  /*<![CDATA[*/



  html, body {
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
	background-color:#000033;
	
    }
    
  body {
    font: 100%/1.25 verdana, arial, sans-serif;
    color: black;
    background-color: #eef;
	overflow: auto;
    }
    
  p {
    font-size: 1em;
    margin-bottom: 0;
    }
    
  p + p {
    text-indent: 1em;
    margin-top: 0;
    }
       
#header {
    color: #000000;
    background-color: #fff;
    overflow: auto; /*encloses float children
                      see http://garyblue.port5.com/webdev/floatdemo.html
                      */
    text-align: center;
    }

#header ul {
    list-style: none;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    }
    
#headermenu1 {
    float: left;
    text-align: right;
    margin-left: 2px;
    display: inline;  /*this is a fix for IE's doubled
                        float margin bug*/
    }
    
#headermenu2 {
    float: right;
    text-align: left;
    margin-right: 100px;
    display: inline; /*same as above*/
    }

#global {
	margin:0 auto;
	width:500px;
	text-align: left;
}

can someone point out the problem.

- Thanks -

Hi,

I'm using SIFR for the headlines on my website, to replace my <h1> text. Please look at http://209.172.34.108/~free/kpformations/test.html

The three paragraphs are all <h1> tags but have different sizes. The CSS stylesheet is in the source of the page. Please can you have a look at this and tell me is there any way I can make the <h1> tags the same size and not resize autmatically? I have tried changing the font line height but that didnt work.

Please help!

Hello All,

I have issues with the repeating background on IE only.
In firefox,it works fine.

Please find the attached ZIP file for all the content with its assets.

I am trying to have a curved images on the TOP LEFT & TOP RIGHT only and a image background on the content. In Firefox, the content background is not repeating after the TOP RIGHT and fits correctly. But in IE, the content background is extended after the TOP RIGHT.

Please advice.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I building a page with a form. Tables would be super easy, but my client expects web 2.0

Here's the page: http://www.caillouette.com/Utilitrek/eight/members/search_inquiry.php

I'm currently using <span class="form">, or <span> but look totally different on different computers (i.e. Firefox on PC or MAC)

Here's my CSS: Code:

.last_name
{
margin-right:230px;
}

.first_name
{
margin-right:220px;
}

Can anyone tell me the best approach? Basically I need each field's text to line up below and to the left.

The form is a lot longer and has varied width fields throughout. Any help or ideas are appreciated.

thanks

Hello.

I really need some help with this problem. If you are willing to help, check out the site with my problem:

http://www.test.cos.ucf.edu/content/deans/staff.html
(this link may expire within a few months of post date)

I'm a student, but I'm getting paid to develop this site (not enough payment of course ). Hopefully you don't mind helping anyways. Looking at this page in Firefox shows no problems, yet in IE 7, it looks much worse. There is a problem which I am not aware of. Is it like anything you have heard of?

Thank you for the help


---------------------
FIXED
---------------------

The problem was with a contained div with overflow set for vertical scrolling. However, there was a ul with li's floating within it within the div to make a grid. Each li had an image within it with position:relative. This relative positioning screwed up the scrolling for the div. So I added padding to each li element to make up for the top and left properties. If you want a better explanation please ask. Since I could not quickly figure out how to delete this post, I figured I would explain the solution. Thanks!

Hello,

can someone please take a look at this site:
http:// www . jamandcheese . be/dump/index.html

As you can see, I'm having some trouble.

1. I can't get the navigation to work properly. It needs to be vertically centered and the sliding doors hover effect isn't quite right. Don't know how to solve this one!

2. under the white box (i'll add a slideshow later) there are two buttons. The bottom text overlaps the text above. How can i solve this? And how can i get the hover effect to work? When you hover over, text needs to become white with dark text-shadow.

3. the 2 lists at the bottom are floating left. They need to be centered like the screenshot below. When i give both ul a margin, they jump underneath each other. Please help!

Hi,

I am putting together a design for a client and have a complex navigation menu made in CSS (the CSS menu was paid for from a third party). Now I have found out that it is not IE6 compliant because the maker of the menu falls into the 'nobody should use IE6 because it is too old and painful to code for, therefore I won't cater to it' camp. Apparently he doesn't mind cutting out 18% to 32% of visitors.

So I am hoping someone here will recognise the behaviour and be able to suggest the fix. I feel sure it would be doable with one of those exception rules in the CSS, for IE6.

Here is the site (work in progress still):
http://southcarolinanightlife.com/

The CSS for the menu is he
http://southcarolinanightlife.com/templates/tmpl_uni/css/menu/menu15.css

Note how, with IE6, when you hover over navigation drop down menus, the submenus all appear at the extreme left, rather than beneath the menu item you are hovering over. In other browsers it seems to be just fine.

Many thanks if anyone can assist.

I am trying to install some fonts onto my website.

I am having a problem with @font-face. I have followed the proper steps as told to me by multiple sites and I place the font I want to install into my website in the main directory and type up the code but it still doesn't work.

Code:

@font-face{
font-family:'LithosPro-Regular';
src: url('LithosPro-Regular.otf') format('opentype');
}

h2 {
color:#30F;
font-family:'LithosPro-Regular', georgia, serif;
}

Is there something else I need to add or do?
I appreciate any help as I've been stuck on this for days!

This is probably an easy one, but I can't seem to find the answer. I am trying to get a nice offset border effect with nested divs like this:

Code:

<html>
<head>
	<title></title>
	<style type="text/css">
	<!--
	#box {
	   background-color: Silver; 
		width: 200px;
		height: 500px; 
		}
	#inside {
	   width: 100%;
		height: 100%;
		border: 1px solid navy;
		margin: 10px;
		}
	-->
	</style>
</head>

<body>
    <div align="center">
         <div id="box">
	    <div id="inside"></div>
	 </div>
    </div>

</body>
</html>

This works fine in IE but in not in Firefox and Mozilla.
What am I missing?

Thanks
