CSS - Want To Help Me With My Button Styling Woes?
Hi folks,
I'm having issues stying button elements the way I want. The code below illustrates what I'm after. I'm wondering whether there's a fix or whether I should just give up on the button element as being too much trouble.

Similar TutorialsHello, In a page I have: 1. An input (type="submit") button that submits a form. 2. An anchor that cancels the form submission and redirects the user to a page. I am trying to make both look the same having a padding a background color. I tested in Firefox and in IE but in both cases the two don't look the same. I am also using a Reset.css. I posted an example with the HTML and CSS code he http://www.27lamps.com/Labs/Buttons/Buttons.html Could someone help me out with this? Thanks, Miguel I have form located below the google map on this page - http://www.hometowntrans.com/map_hours.asp I want to style it such that it has a 3d look to it if you will, with a gray background and black text. I styled my form elements with codes below but I am having trouble with styling my radio buttons. I tried fieldset div input.radio, fieldset div radio, fieldset div radioarea none worked. Code:
fieldset div input {
width:150px;
border-top:1px solid #000000;
border-left:1px solid #000000;
border-bottom:1px solid #aaaaaa;
border-right:1px solid #aaaaaa;
padding:1px;
}
fieldset div textarea {
width:300px;
border-top:1px solid #000000;
border-left:1px solid #000000;
border-bottom:1px solid #aaaaaa;
border-right:1px solid #aaaaaa;
padding:1px;
ok I've been playing with divs and trying to get them working well, but no matter what I do I can never get any site I try and create with divs looking as good as I could do with tables. I've just grown up using tables, and am irritated that that's the way it was because I would like to be using divs. I posted a thread earlier and got some good help, but have since decided on using a different design and can't quite get it the way I want it. so, this is a big ask, but could someone 'convert' this table based site to something that looks the same using divs so I try and relate how divs work to how tables work a bit better? thank you very very much to anyone that can. html Code:
<html>
<head>
<style>
@import url(template.css);
</style>
</head>
<body>
<table id='main' cellspacing='0'>
<tr>
<td id='logobox'>
logo
</td>
<td id='menu'>
menu
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td id='content' colspan='2'>
content
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td id='footer' colspan='2'>
footer
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
css Code:
body, html
{
height: 100%;
background-color: #fff;
margin: 0px;
}
td
{
border: 1px solid #000;
}
table#main
{
width: 60%;
height: 100%;
margin: 0px auto;
border: 1px solid #000;
}
td#logobox
{
width: 80px;
height: 80px;
}
td#menu

}
td#content
{
columnspan: 2;
}
td#footer
{
height: 1%;

I would really appreciate some help with this layout issue I am having. Look at this page in IE 9 - http://www.hotstepperspainting.com/.../assistance.asp Notice the menu wraps the last link around and onto the body of the page? Also note that the bottom nav bar is doubled up. Now in IE8 I don't have the menu problem but do have the footer issue. In IE7 it looks like it should. I would really appreciate it is someone could shed some light for me on this. Tom Having some problem's with this layout i'm 'attempting' to develop in CSS... The Div setup Code:
<div id="header">
Header
</div>
<div id="container">
<div id="menu_left">
Menu Left
</div>
<div id="content">
Content
</div>
<div id="menu_right">
Menu Right
</div>
</div>
<div id="footer">
Footer
</div>
The CSS Code:
/* specific divs */
#container {
margin: -3px;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
#header {
height: 100%;
text-align: left;
border-style: dotted;
border-width: 1px;
border-color: #000000;
}
#content {
width: 60%;
position: fixed;
float: left;
border-style: dotted;
border-width: 1px;
border-color: #000000;
}
#menu_left {
width: 20%;
position: fixed;
float: left;
border-style: dotted;
border-width: 1px;
border-color: #000000;
}
#menu_right {
width: 20%;
border-style: dotted;
border-width: 1px;
border-color: #000000;
}
#footer {
border-style: dotted;
border-width: 1px;
border-color: #000000;
}
I've been looking around I don't really know where I'm going wrong due to my lack of experiance with CSS.... But in IE it won't float the DIV [menu_right] i've tried using position absolute|relative|fixed none seem to work i've been trying different combo's of Floats and mostly anything I can think of if someone here would be able to spare some time to help a 'noob' i'd be very gratefull... Thanks Hi I am having a nightmare trying to get my horizontal navigation items to fill the width of my page and looking the same in IE and FF. Here is the page http://www.designhomemanagement.com/new/ You will see that in IE the spacing is different. They need to fill the width of the design (760px) Please someone help me! Thanks I'm having trouble getting my background to render for my site. When I write the code in the HTML ex. <body background="images/currentbgimage.jpg"> it brings up the image fine. This would suffice if I could tell the image not to repeat. But you can't to my knowledge in the body tag. The image won't display if I write it in the CSS though. ex. body {background-image: url('images/currentbgimage.jpg')} or body {background: url('images/currentbgimage.jpg')} I also tried it with the JPG in the folder with the HTML code, but to no avail. Any help will be appreciated. Skolar Hi, This will help explain it: http://www.mattvonfat.com Now there is a container DIV (the box that goes down to almost bottom of screen) and 4 DIVs in the container (Logo, two link bars and my content). My problem is that I want the content to fill up as much as possible and have the bottom link bar (which is bordered) to be at the very bottom. Now, I tried adding height: 100%; to my content style but that made it 100% of the body height. Is there way to get it to just fill up as much as possible? I just noticed that one problem could be that the containing DIV uses absolute positioning to make the container 50px from both bottom and top. Would this be a problem? Here is the css for both the container and the content: css Code: Original - css Code /* container */ div#outer { position: absolute; width: 700px; font: 12px Verdana; background-color: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #000000; top: 50px; bottom: 50px; left: 50%; margin-left: -350px; padding: 0px; min-width: 700px; } /*content*/ div#indexs { border-top: 1px solid #000000; padding: 10px; margin: 0px; text-align: center; }
Thanks for any help you can give me with this, Matthew [edit] Hmm and i just realised that it doesn't even appear in IE the way it does in mozilla so I have two problems...[/edit] Hi. K, the site (thus far) looks great in IE, as the CSS is functioning perfectly. However, when checked in FF, it pretty well ignores the CSS for the body. I"ve undoubtedly missed somethin', just don't know what it is. Thanks here's the css; Code:
.borders {
border: 1px solid #666666;
text-align:center;
}
}
.text {
font-family:Century Gothic, Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
color: #333333;
text-align:left;
}
}
.listtext {
font-family:Century Gothic, Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
color: #333333;
text-align:left;
}
table.menu {
border:1px solid #999999;
background:#CCCCCC;
}
table.menu a:link, table.menu a:visited {
display:block;
font-family:Century Gothic, Arial, sans-serif;
font-size:12px;
line-height:16px;
color:#006600;
text-decoration:none;
padding: 2px 2px;
}
table.menu a:active, table.menu a:hover {
color:#CCCCCC;

}
table.menu a {

Thank you! I'm working on reworking my flash site into a CSS/HTML site. Tired of dealing with flash.

As you can see, I've just moved it over manually 145 px, and that centers it pretty well if you are viewing it at 1024x768, but at higher resolutions, the 145px is not sufficient for the centering. If anyone has an idea on how to fix it, I'd appreciate help. The solution must be able to validate, and work in both IE and a compliant browser (mozilla or firefox is what I use). Also, if the style sheet code can be cleaned up, or you see mistakes, don't hesitate to tell me. I've been learning CSS2.1 for about 3 months now, but I am not a whiz at it... I appreciate the help. Many thanks... Bryan Hi. I've been trying to add some basic CSS to my forums. Basically it's just this: Code: <div style="float:left;width:24%;"> </div> <br /> <div style="float:left;width:24%;"> </div> <div style="float:right;width:74%;"> </div> It works fine with just the first and last div. But it won't work with the middle div there. I dunno what CSS to use. Edit: I can understand why it's doing that, add left | at 24%, add another | at 24% beside it for || but the last | is 74% and won't fit so it goes on a new line. Then the second | stretches to 74% to fit the | at 74% below it. Hmm, might revert to tables. Please look at these two pages - www dot aamco-houston dot com www dot aamco-houston dot com/warranties.asp On the second page, in IE9, the navigation gets broken and put on two lines. In IE7, IE8, Firefox,etc. it looks fine. Can someone give me a workaround perhaps? Thanks. Tom Hey, all! I'm having a seemingly simple problem... and I'd really appreciate if you guys could help me out! I have no idea how to do what I want done, but I know it's possible. I want to give every <tr> in <table class="forumList"> a 'border-bottom: 1px solid #000;' style.... except for the last <tr>. HOWEVER, if a new table is created, I want it to start showing the border-bottom again... until the last <tr> in the table. How would I go about doing this? I'm having serious problems with the Peekaboo bug in IE. At least I think its that - I've tried all the fixes listed on positioniseverything and none are fixing it... http://ucy.sitemakers.com/courses.php I've got a three column layout taken from alistaparts Holy Grail layout which I've had working on many other sites with no problems, but I have added another two column layout directly above the three column one in this case. The problem im having is a jumping div element, the left column. When you click on the Courses link the element is in the centre of the page but moving the mouse around the main menu items will make it jump back into place. On page refresh the column is in the right place. Wierdly hovering over the link in the centre column doesnt make the offending div jump back like I would have expected. Taking out the following IE hack from the CSS: *html #cc_l { left:22em;} Makes the div appear in the correct place when clicking on the Courses link, until I hover over the menu again - then it jumps off the left of the page! This is doing my nut in, anyone have any ideas? Code:

Why doesn't this automatically adjust the size of the div next to it? Am I better going for the position attribute here guys? Cheers Hey, so I've just formatted my first table-free html page, using CSS. It's mostly cool, except that the page length doesn't mesh with the amount of content... http://mailwerx.ca/grundmans/about_us.htm The css is at... http://mailwerx.ca/grundmans/grundmans.css If anyone knows why this is happening, please tell me! I've played with this for hours! (And I know it's probably something small and stupid.) Thanks! -Jaeger Please look at this site - http://www.hitechtranny.com In FF and IE7. Notice in FF that the last link "Contact" on the main nav does not fit? I use this navigation on numerous sites and I always get this problem. Is there a quick fix such as a margin/padding issue I am missing that would fix this? Thanks. Tom I am jsut interested as to how you would go about creating a three column layout. The way im doing it at the moment is as follows Code:
#left {
float: left;
width: 176px;
margin: 0px;
}
#right {
float: right;
width: 176px;
margin: 0px;
}
#content {
margin: 0px 186px;
}
Code: <div id="left"></div> <div id="right"></div> <div id="content"></div> The above works very well UNLESS i want to put in a table of width="100%". If i do this then the content div falls below the left and right divs. By setting the width to 99% it then works again but i really need it to be 100% wide within the content div. One other thing, this works fine in firefox but falls in IE. Can anyone give me a clue as to why i am unable to do this and secondly a method to fix it? Thanks so much Andy |
