CSS - Ie6 Column Drop - Floated Div
In IE6, the right sidebar column drops down below the content or disappears and creates space below the content before the footer. On some of my other pages it happens and on others, it does not. Can anyone suggest the problem and/or solution?
Best, Colin http://029c92a.netsolhost.com/abrasives/cuttingdiscs.html Similar TutorialsI'm trying to change one of my sites from a good ol' table based layout to a CSS / XHTML one but I'm having a (first) problem with a the layout I started from a "template" I took from he http://www.fu2k.org/alex/css/layout..._NN4_FMFM.mhtml Here's what I'm talking about: http://www.link7.ro/misc/cssd/test1.html Basically I have a 3 (faux-)column layout with 3 floated divs. The first and second columns are put in a separate container float and the third column is floated next to this container. Everything was alright while developing in Firefox but then I checked in IE 6 and there it was: the surprise! The contents of the third column were not showing up. I think it's there though, because it's taking up space under the other elements... But it's somehow invisible. I tried fiddling with the contained div's width and I noticed that if I reduce it by ~5 pixels the content shows up in IE but it's misaligned to the right and I don't understand why because if I set the third column's background to be visible there's clearly a gap on the left even if I set all margins and paddings to 0. Sorry about the mess in the code, I know half the comments are in English (kept from the original template) half are in Romanian. It's actually a draft, I haven't had time to clean it up yet. Please suggest fixes or alternate templates I could start out from. I would like the column order in the source to be [main column], [side column 1], [side column 2]. The order of the side columns doesn't really matter but I would like my main column to come first. Thanks! hello. I am currently using a simple horizontal top menu with a vertical drop down. I would like to change the vertical drop down to be horizontal, multi column, and should accomodate more than one line, if possible. The example I'm going for is used as top navigation he nfl - baltimore ravens home page and he ge home page Here is the code I'm using currently (would like it to be all CSS). #### ul#mainNavigation { padding-left:185px; } ul#mainNavigation li { padding:0 16px; float: left; display:inline; position: relative; list-style: none; color:White; _width:1px; } ul#mainNavigation li.Seperator { padding:0px; _width:1px; } ul#mainNavigation li.over { background-color:white; } ul#mainNavigation li.over a { color:Red; } ul#mainNavigation li a { color:White; text-transform:uppercase; text-decoration:none; font-weight:bold; display:block; } ul#mainNavigation a:hover { color: Red; } ul#mainNavigation li a { display: block; } ul#mainNavigation li p { height:19px; } ul#mainNavigation li ul { display: none; position: absolute; background-color:Black; opacity:.8; filter: alpha(opacity=80); -moz-opacity: 0.8; margin-left:-16px; } ul#mainNavigation li.over ul { display: block; z-index:999; } ul#mainNavigation li.over ul li { float: none; background:none; border:none; white-space:nowrap; padding:0px; } ul#mainNavigation li.over ul li a { color: white; padding:5px; border-bottom:solid 1px black; } ul#mainNavigation li.over ul li a:hover { background: #3d1f6e; color: white; } ~~~~~~~ HTML ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ <ul id="mainNavigation"> <li> <p><a href="Mainlink1.html">Mainlink1</a></p> <ul> <li><a href="link2.html">LINK 2</a></li> <li><a href="link3.html">LINK 3</a></li> <li><a href="link4.html">LINK 4</a></li> <li><a href="link5.html">LINK 5</a></li> <li><a href="link6.html">LINK 6</a></li> <li><a href="link7.html">LINK 7</a></li> </ul> </li> <li> <p><a href="Mainlink2.html">Mainlink2</a></p> <ul> <li><a href="link2.html">LINK 2</a></li> <li><a href="link3.html">LINK 3</a></li> <li><a href="link4.html">LINK 4</a></li> <li><a href="link5.html">LINK 5</a></li> <li><a href="link6.html">LINK 6</a></li> <li><a href="link7.html">LINK 7</a></li> </ul> </li> </ul> #### Thank you, in advance! ~ lahddah In Firefox, I've got a right div that is not repsonding to an auto width in FF. I am not a pro a CSS (yet ) and I hope that someone can give me the one line solution that I am missing.

Hi I am trying to make a table to display some stuff within a fix sized window. I want to have 5 columns of fixed width and one column that spans the rest of the remaining space. The Idea is to allow the widths of the first 5 columns to be changed by a script and having the last one adapting as needed... html Code: Original - html Code <div class="container"><table cellspacing="0"> <colgroup> <col width="40" /> <col width="220" /> <col width="120" /> <col width="65" /> <col width="40" /> </colgroup> <thead> <tr> <th>A</th> <th>B</th> <th>C</th> <th>D</th> <th>E</th> <th style="width: 100%;></th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>1</td> <td>2</td> <td>3</td> <td>4</td> <td>5</td> <td style="width: 100%;></td> </tr> </tbody> </table></div> <div class="container"><table cellspacing="0"> <colgroup> <col width="40" /> <col width="220" /> <col width="120" /> <col width="65" /> <col width="40" /> </colgroup> <thead> <tr> <th>A</th> <th>B</th> <th>C</th> <th>D</th> <th>E</th> <th style="width: 100%;></th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>1</td> <td>2</td> <td>3</td> <td>4</td> <td>5</td> <td style="width: 100%;></td> </tr> </tbody> </table></div> css Code: Original - css Code div.container { height: 400px; width: 800px; overflow: scroll; } table { width: 100%; } td { border-style: solid; border-color: silver; border-width: 0px; padding: 1px 3px; } th { border-style: outset; border-color: silver; border-width: 2px; background: silver; padding: 1px 3px; }
It really does fill the entire space but the last column crushes all the other into their minimal width resulting in linebreaks between words inside the cells... Please help me Hi all, I've tried searching around for this issue, but I've not found any help so far and it's driving me nuts. I hope someone here can advise. This is an abridged version of the site's code for example: Code: <style type="text/css">

I've placed the Country Title in an H2 tag, then beneath that, each anchor is enclosed in a DIV, and is set as a left-floated block. Then I placed a spacer DIV (clear: both) to create a new line, then repeated with H2 and links. This all works fine in Firefox, IE7 and Opera, but of course IE6 is being a pig as usual. The spacer DIV is pushed to sit alongside the bottom of the left column, and I can't figure out how to (or if I can) stop this. I can't add in links properly, so I hope this is acceptable under the rules -- The site in question is: www.swalings .com/swalings/index4.asp and here's a screenshot of IE6 behaviour: www.swalings .com/images/swalings-ie6-troubleshoot.jpg Hopefully that's enough information to go on, please let me know if there's something I missed out. Thanks a lot! Rob Question title: A 2 column layout, let only the second column scroll horizontally and let them both scroll vertically Hello I did try several idea's, but all failed. Then I did search the web but found a list of > 400.000 in google. If someone is willing to tell me if it is possible and give me some directions, please do. Everything is welcome. I got a list with 3 columns ( basically you could say I have only two columns because 2-3 could be concatenated to together, but they have a different style and justification, but I could live to start with a two column sample) f.e line 1 : value_one - ( some_text - value_two (right justified) ) line 2 : value_one - ( some_text - value_two (right justified) ) line 99:.... e.t.c Column one has a fixed width of 32px. 'some text' can be longer then the wide available and value_two is with 3 spaces appended to column 2. I want that column one is fixed horizontal and that the second and the third column can scroll horizontally. Of course when there are more line's then the height of the container is should be posable to scroll vertically. Finally I need the color behind column one be different then the column 2 and 3. So what I did create is a container with two containers where the left one has a different colour then the right one and above those a container with the list. I have overflow on auto, so I get scroll-bars when necessarily. But my problem is that when I scroll horizontally that my first column scrolls away to the left. Basically my question is. How can I get a 2 column layout, let only the second column scroll horizontally ( first is locked in horizontal place ) and let them scroll both vertically? Hey, So I have a three column layout being implemented as such: html: Code:
<div class="content">
<div class="col1 column"></div>
<div class="col3 column"></div>
<div class="col2 column">
<div class="header">Header</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS: Code:
.column {
padding: 10px;
position:relative;
}
.header {
background:#cfe6f5;
color:#416383;
font-size:11px;
font-family:Arial;
font-weight:300;
padding-left:15px;
}
.col1 {
float: left;
width:250px;
}
.col2 {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
.col3 {
float:right;
width:250px;
}
The problem is that the width of the header div extends all the way to the left and right of the page when it's in the middle column, but behaves the way I want it to (extends to the left and right of the column) when it's in the left or right column. Any ideas? Thanks. --Surgery Hi, hopefully you enjoyed the title, I had a good laugh thinking of it in that split second it took me to write it. So, I found a 3 column css layout on a CSS generator website, because I got sick of trying to hack up layouts I've made in the past that didn't work. Anyhow, it was working fine with one line of content in each column when I tested it out, however, once content in the middle column was added, and stretched vertically beyond a certain point, it will drag the left columns content down with it. The right column is not affected in any way. I have spent a few hours trying to look for reasons as to why it would happen, but I had no luck. I would appreciate any help... so thank you in advance if you take a stab at it. Here's the html: Code: <body> <div id="pagewidth"> <div id="header"></div> <div id="wrapper" class="clearfix" > <div id="twocols" class="clearfix"> <div id="maincol">Main Text, woot.

Again, thank you in advance if you can come up with anything. can i make my left column, the same height as my right column? or infact, if the left is taller than the right, the right extends to it and if the right is taller than the left the left extends to it? is this possible, cheers heres my css: left column, is #leftNav and the right column is #contentMain PHP Code: #content { margin:0px auto; padding: 0; width: 760px; } #contentMain { padding: 0; margin: 0; float: right; width: 632px; } #leftNav { color: #000; float: left; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 128px; } Hello, I am having difficulty with the center column on the following page: http://cbo4edu.org/index2.html I want to widen the center column so that the CBO NEWS heading touches the blue line which divides the center and right column. When I try to add width to the style sheet the left column moves out of alignment. Any help is much appreciated, thanks! As always IE woes... Anyway I have a design that I'm currently reworking into a css/div positioned site. I'm almost done with it, but the problem I'm having is that I have 2 floated divs below a horizontal navigation bar. In IE these two floated divs are not positioning themselves directly beneath the nav bar like they do in FF. There looks to be a 3px or so gap between them. I will post screenshots for a better idea of what I'm talking about. The HTML is: Code:
<div id="container">
<div id="top"></div>
<div id="brands">
....stuff here....
</div>
<div id="slides"></div> <!-- Slides and Vert_nav are not appearing directly below brands in IE-->
<div id="vert_nav">
....stuff here....
</div>
</div>
CSS Code:
/* CSS Document */
html, body {

margin: 0px;

should.jpg is how the page is supposed to look. shouldnt.jpg is how it is appearing in IE. Hi, I'm having a familiar problem: with this page The the content on a contained and floated div is over running it's containing div. I have had this problem before and using something like: Code:
#innerwrap:after {
content:".";
display:block;
clear:both;
height: 0;
clear: both;
visibility: hidden;
}
Has worked before, but this time it's not. I'm having to specify a unique class and heitht for the #main box or use <br/>. It would be nice not to have to do this. Can anybody advise me what to look into please. Thanks James Hello, I have a page where a left-floated <div> is nested within the main <div>. Content then is placed in a <div> next to the left-floated one. My problem is that the main <div> does not stretch to the height of the left-floated <div>, rather just to the height of the content. I placed: Code: <br style="clear: both;"> after the content <div> which usually does the trick but it's not working for some reason... And even more confusing is the fact that if I change the <br> to something else like say <span>, the main <div> does stretch to the proper height BUT the content within the <h1> tag and the content <div> are not displayed until you do something like minimize the window then restore it or bring another window in front of it then bring it back to focus. This happens in IE only. Any ideas? Page html/css: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">

Aaaah! another problem... now i have 2 divs, left one floated, and right one set that it's left margine distances him from left div. when i print that page from FF it's ok, but when i try to print it from IE it looks like left one isn't floating - divs are one beneath other (right one shifted to right for that margin value). what now? thanks Hi, I have managed to rewrite my three column navigation page using floated divs instead of its original table (the page was written years ago and I am updating to get away from tables). This was hard for me because I am very new to CSS. My code validated and the page looks fine in IE but in Firefox the third or right column does not clear the middle column. I tried to google the problem but the explanations are way over my head. Also the only way I could get the blue border to not show up in firefox was to add the style directly to the image code. Can someone please help me. The link is www.medeaslair.net/myths.html. Here is the CSS Code:

The div has some basic styling on it to create a block around the tables. The tables should appear side by side at the top of the div, so I floated the tables. I then found that the width of the div was always 100% unless I floated the div as well. This made the div wrap around the tables nicely, but caused the next element to appear to the right of the div, not on the next line as it normally would. Here is the basic code I have so far: Code: <html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
div.box1 {
border: 1px solid red;
background: #afafaf;
padding: 2px;
float: left;
}
div.box1 table {
float: left;
border: 1px solid blue;
margin-right: 15px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Div</h1>
<div class="box1">
<table>
<tr>
<td>Field1:</td>
<td>Value</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Field1:</td>
<td>Value</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Field1:</td>
<td>Value</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Field1:</td>
<td>Value</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table>
<tr>
<td>Field2:</td>
<td>Value</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Field2:</td>
<td>Value</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Field2:</td>
<td>Value</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</div>
<h1>Next Text</h1>
</body>
</html>
I would like for the "Next Text" to appear on a new line after the div. After reading this page, I added the following to my css: Code: div.box1:after {
content: 'clear me';
clear: both;
display: block;
height: 0px;
visibility: hidden;
}
However, this had no effect on the results in Firefox or Safari. The only way I have found to clear the div is to add style="clear: both" to the h1 tag following the div. I would prefer to not do this because it will be problematic for our graphics guys down the road. Any advice on how to clear the div and keep it wrapping around the tables? sure i read an article on this somewhere but cant remember where, the problem is this Code: <div class="floated and cleared right"> stuff </div> <div class="fixed width" > <img class="floated left"> lots of text <div> related to my previous layout post. the problem is that the img (infact any floated element, cleared or not) falls below the right floated div! (red box in attatched gif) if i float and clear the first div left then the img is in the correct place within it but the div itseld drops below the right floated div help! Hey, Why does this look different in IE and in Firefox? Code: <html><body>
<div style="float:left;border:3px solid green;">Left div</div>
<div style="width:200px;border:8px solid black;">Right div</div>
</bodY></html>
In FF, the right div's border starts at the same place as the left div's border. In IE, the right div's border starts to the right of the left div. Thanks in advance... Before I state the problem, let me say that I am working towards properly validated html and css. There are a couple tables in my design that I put in just to show the boss something pretty! They will be gone soon. I have 3 places on the page where I'm using images as links to effect behavior with javascript or forms. My menu's going down the left side of this template has +/- "buttons" to toggle nested lists on and off. By using margin-top:-14px they are lining up slightly higher then needed in FF, slightly lower then needed in IE and way to high in Safari. If i set the margin-top to 0, then I get it lined up nicely in safari and IE and FF are off. The images inside of the <li>'s This is the css code I believe to be relevent css Code: Original - css Code .clearfix:after { content: "."; display: block; height: 0; clear: both; visibility: hidden; } div.redbox img.plusminus { float:right; margin:-16px 3px 0 0; padding:0 0 0 0; height:10px; }
.clearfix:after {
html Code: Original - html Code <li id="item1" class="border-bottom clearfix"> <a href="/store/category/50">T-SHIRTS</a> </li> <li id="item2" class="border-bottom clearfix"> <a href="/store/category/51">PANTS</a> <a onclick="toggle('item2');"><img src="/images/closed.gif" alt="closed image" class="plusminus" class="plusminus" id="img_item2" /> </a> <ul id="ul_item2" class="closed"> <li class="sidebarsub"> <a href="/store/subcategory/325">PROTECTIVE</a> </li> </ul> </li>
<li id="item1" class="border-bottom clearfix">
<a href="/store/category/50">T-SHIRTS</a>
</li>
<li id="item2" class="border-bottom clearfix">
<a href="/store/category/51">PANTS</a>
<a onclick="toggle('item2');"><img src="/images/closed.gif" alt="closed image" class="plusminus" class="plusminus" id="img_item2" />
</a>
<ul id="ul_item2" class="closed">
<li class="sidebarsub">
<a href="/store/subcategory/325">PROTECTIVE</a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
Is this a common thing in CSS that there might be a tutorial out there on how to fix it? I've looked at using overflow and that doesn't seem to fix the problem. the link for the page... Template Thanks for having a look |
