CSS - Styling A Select
Hello,
I am trying to style my form inputs, textareas and selects as follows: input, select, textarea { border: solid 6px #ECF0F9; color: #252525; font: normal 0.75em Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; padding: 0.25em; width: 520px; } I am having a few problems: Firefox 3: 1. The select is narrow than the inputs and textareas; 2. When I click the select the dropdown borders look different ... some are thinner than others. IE 7: 1. The select is narrow than the inputs and textareas; 2. The border of the select is not changed. What am I doing wrong and how can I make the appearance of a Select look the same across various browsers? Can I do this with JQuery? Thanks, Miguel Similar Tutorialsim trying to get an effect like this one, where when a textfield or form area is selected, the div around changes bgcolor WooFoo I think i might be able to use the pseudo selectors but not sure if ie will take it. Anyways i would love some suggestions! I have a menu constructed <div><ul><li><a><img><p>. The li is margined as 16% to space a given number of links across the page in the 100% div. I am trying to put a border around the <a> but the browser only shows the border as a sort of collapsed div and does not surround the child elements. I try giving height to the <a> but that does not work. Any ideas how I can get the <a> border to surround the <img><p> tags? I am styling my <pre> on my template document and have some questions. First, I tend to gravitate to semantic correct CSS and xHTML. Thus chose xHTML strict for my template document and have been extensively styling the CSS style sheet. The <pre> tag presents the latest dilemma. Basically, I came across this link where the developer presented CODE in a <textarea> tag. The code did not require entities, < or &rt; in the markup. These styling attributes appealed to me; inset design and overflow with scrollbars for extending text beyond the page. Bottom of the Page http://www.evolt.org/article/HTML_is_not_an_acronym/17/35750/ The developer also used presentational styling in the markup. HTML strict does not allow one to use style attributes in the HMTL; besides the style sheet. But my sensibilities gravitate toward using semantically correct markup. Most people, including myself, use div containers with classes or ID for presentational styling. But for this exercise, the <pre> or <code> tag are preferable since these classes serve to present (you guess it) code. One annoyance about the <pre> relates to indenting the markup (the actual text file). By default (and by design), <pre> tag incorporates any indents or white space in the browser. My thoughts revolved around changing the wrapping property to account for line breaks and disregard white space. Then, in theory, one could indent the markup for readability. This document is for personal use and semantically organized and indented for readability. The correct markup will help me understand or edit the document two years from now. In addition, it forms my quick reference to copy & paste tags. The following class style did not produce the <textarea> desired attributes. Code:
pre.CodeExample {
/*background-color: transparent;*/
border: medium inset #CCCCCC;
font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;
margin: 1em 2em 1em 2em;
overflow: auto;
padding: .5em .5em .5em .5em;
white-space: nowrap;
}
Please let me know what are the default CSS attributes for the <pre> and <textarea> tags. Please let me know if you have any suggestions about styling the <pre> tag or links to cool implementations. You may review my markup at the following link. http://www.geocities.com/robert_neville310/Template_Sample.html#blockquote The Blockquote section has several methods for displaying code. I am looking to consolidate and standardize my classes. Suggestions are welcomed. div.ExampleOutput pre.CodeExample Hi, my xml code is: <room> <features> <pool/> <Aircon/> <Radio/> <DVD/> <beds double="2"/> </features> </room> <room> <features> <pool/> <TV/> <VCR/> <beds twin="1" double="2"/> </features> </room> i want to Display the word "Features" in bold, then under the word features i want the list of features to be displayed with bullet points. I want beds to appear in bold in the list. This is the code i have so far: features{ } features:before { content:"Features"; font-weight:bold; } beds:before{ content:"Beds: "; } beds[sofa-bed]:after{ content:attr(sofa-bed)" x Sofa-bed "; } beds[double]:after{ content:attr(double)" x Double "; } beds[twin]:after{ content:attr(twin)" x Twin "; } The problem is, i can't get in to display anything except, the beds entry. But when it displays the beds entry, it only gives the last one in the list. So the one with a twin and a double, only the twin is displayed. Any idea's? Hi Guys, Hope you are all well. My page layout is in CSS, however in the middle I have a selection of images and text, based in a standard HTML table. All the images are 300px wide. It works fine on all nice small browsers, but it doesn't look nice on screens with a high resolution, because the images have lots of ****e space round them, and adjusting the background colour looks just as bad. I have tried to apply width: 300px; (as well as max-width: 300px; ) to the td element, but neither FF or IE seems to accept this? Should they accept this? Has anyone got a better more practical layout model for this type of display? either using a fix to the above or 'pure' CSS and ditch the table? Charlie I see that layout on my site is completely broken in IE7... funnyfurniture.net Could anybody help me to fix my css... Hello, I am applying a style to a anchor tag. This anchor is created by an ASP.NET page and is inside a list item. I know the style is working because I applied it to the anchor in a page that has only this. .Test { background-color: #101010; color: #E2E2E2; padding: 4px 10px 6px 12px; text-decoration: none; font: normal 1.2em Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; } <a href="Test.aspx" class="Test">Testing</a> However, when I apply it to the anchor inside the list item I don't get the bottom margin unless I add "display: block" to the style! But then the background is extended 100%. I don't know what is going on. I tried everything I could think off. Here is the code where the Test style is giving me problems: ... <li> <label for="tbMessage" id="lMessage">Mensagem<span class="Required">*</span></label> <textarea name="tbMessage" rows="4" cols="20" id="tbMessage"></ textarea> </li> <li> <a id="lbSubmit" class="Test" href='javascript:WebForm_DoPostBackWithOptions(new WebForm_PostBackOptions("ctl00$ctl00$cphSite$cfSendContact$lbSubmit", "", true, "ContactForm", "", false, true))'> Send </a> </li> </ul> Any idea why this is happening? All I am trying to do is to make my anchor look as a simple button. Thank You, Miguel Hello, I am creating a simple navigation bar using a list. My anchor tags inside each list item have a background and margin. The problem is they are overlapping. I then added to the li tag margin-top: 20px. The problem is that the bottom background of the last element disappears. I think I might doing something wrong on my styling because when I fix something, something else gets wrong. Could someone, please, help me out? HTML: <ul id="wmNavigation" class="Bar"> <li> <a title="Page1" href="http://www.name.com/page1">Page1</a> </li> <li> <a title="Page2" href="http://www.name.com/page1">Page2</a> </li> <li> <a title="Page3" href="http://www.name.com/page1">Page3</a> </li> <li> <a title="Page4" href="http://www.name.com/page1">Page4</a> </li> </ul> CSS: ul.Bar {} ul.Bar li { font: normal 1.2em Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 0.1em; margin-top: 20px; } ul.Bar li a { background-color: #202020; color: #E2E2E2; padding: 4px 10px 6px 12px; text-decoration: none; } ul.Bar li a:link , ul.Bar li a:visited {} ul.Bar li a:hover, ul.Bar li a:active, ul.Bar li a:focus { background-color: #303030; } Thanks, Miguel I am trying to add sub navigation to my footer area.

Hi is there anyway of making the height of the textbox smaller. I know you an change the width of it Thanks Hi, Im trying to style the button tags, mainly to obtain rounded corners, using images. I can't use '<a>' links to style, which would be simpler, as the button is being used for a program written specifically to use button tags. I have the button working in IE 5, 8 and 9 and firefox but other incarnations do not. body { behavior:url( hover.htc ); } Code: /* REQUIRED BUTTON STYLES: */
button {
position: relative;
color:#000000;
border: 0;
padding: 0;
cursor: pointer;
overflow: visible; /* removes extra side padding in IE */
outline: 0;
}
button::-moz-focus-inner {
border: none; /* overrides extra padding in Firefox */
}
button span {
position: relative;
display: block;
white-space: nowrap;
}
@media screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio:0) {
/* Safari and Google Chrome only - fix margins */
button span {
margin-top: -1px;
}
}
/* OPTIONAL BUTTON STYLES for applying custom look and feel: */
button.submitBtn {
padding: 0 15px 0 0;
margin-right:5px;
font: normal 12px Tahoma;
color:#000000;
text-align: center;

padding: 3px 0 7px 15px;
height:15px;

color:#000;
}
button.submitBtn:hover, button.submitBtnHover { /* the redundant class is used to apply the hover state with a script */
background-position: right -210px;
}
button.submitBtn:hover span, button.submitBtnHover span {
background-position: 0 -70px;
}
button.submitBtn:active, button.submitBtnActive { /* the redundant class is used to apply the hover state with a script */

}
button.submitBtn:active span, button.submitBtnActive span {
background-position: left top;
}
Code: <button value="submit" class="submitBtn"><span>Submit</span> The above is the method i have used so far. Does anyone know how i could improve on this, or another method that maybe beneficial? Any help will be appreciated. Cheers. I am displaying a Google feed on my site through an asp script that converts RSS to HTML. There is no room for images where the feed is, so we just take them out by setting display: none;. That solves one issue, but then the text is way off. I'm having trouble acessing the text after the picture so I can use absolute positioning and keep it left justified. See http://www.lsuhospitals.org/Hospitals/Bogalusa_Med_Center.htm for an example. Here's the RSS to HTML source tabbed out as best I could. This conversion isn't perfect and still needs some work. What's in red is what I need CSS access to, but only when an image is present. Whew!

And here are the relavent styles that I created. I have consulted my book "The Web Professional's Handbook" by glasshaus publishing. They have a decent CSS section (selectors on pgs. 96-97), but to no avail. Code:

width: 140px;
background-color: white;
padding: 0 0 0 0;
margin: 0 0 0 0;

Hi Guys, I'm getting a weird formatting problem with IE. I'm trying to create an H2 element, and it's working fine in Chrome and FF. But in IE, it's all spaced out. For the life of me I can't figure out why. Check out this link in IE and FF (or chrome) http://details.at/h2_test.cfm In FF/Chrome, it looks right. Title, underlined, and a button floated to the right. They are all level. in IE, it seems to push the button below the title text, but then floats it to the right. Here's the code. Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<STYLE>
#content h2
{
margin: 0.5em 0; padding-bottom: 0.25em;
border-bottom: 1px solid #146eb4;
font-size: 1.2em;
width:100%;
}
.h2_button
{
font: .9em Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
color: #146eb4;
border: 1px solid #146eb4;
float:right;
margin: 0 0 0 0;
}
</STYLE>
<title>Untitled</title>
</head>
<body>
<div id="content">
<H2>This is a test <INPUT class="h2_button" type="submit" name="Go" value="Create"></H2>
<P>brown fox jumps over fat piggie</P>
</div>
</body>

I wrote a little div based expandable tree but am having trouble setting some of the conditional styling when a div has children. What I'd like, is that when a div has children, the "font-weight" should be set to bold. Ideally, I'd also like to use the "div:after" property to append a '>' indicating that the div has children, but that's not critical. I tried the following but it didn't work right: Code:
/* Styles the child, not the parent */
div.tnode > .tnode {
display: none;
font-weight: bold;
}
/* Doesn't do anything */
div.tnode:after > .tnode {
content: '>';
}
And here's the basic css with html Code:
<html>
<head>
<style>
/* Node container styles */
div.tcontainer {
width: auto;
height: auto;
font-family: Lucida Grande, Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Swiss, SunSans-Regular;
font-size: 12;
color: black;
padding: 5 5 5 30;
}
/* Node styles */
div.tnode {
display: inherit;
padding: inherit;
}
div.tnode:hover {
cursor: pointer;
}
/* Node child styles */
div.tnode > .tnode {
display: none;
font-weight: bold;
}
div.tnode:hover > .tnode {
display: block;
}
/* doesn't work
div.tnode:after > .tnode {
content: '>';
}
*/
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class='tcontainer'>
<div class='tnode'>North America
<div class='tnode'>USA
<div class='tnode'><img src='http://images.infoplease.com/images/states_imgmap.gif' /></div>

Any help appreciated Thanks Ken how can i create a halo shadow around the textbox on focus? an example can be seen at http://www.macromedia.com when you click on the search box, it changes its style. thanks for the help in advance. i have the following to change the background but not the outlines <input type="text" name="textfield" onblur="toggleColor(this)" onfocus="toggleColor(this)" class="normal"> function toggleColor(objElement) { if (objElement.className=='normal') objElement.className='focus'; else objElement.className='normal'; } .normal { background-color: #cccccc; color: #000000; } Forgive me if this is a very obvious thing, but does such a thing exisit like: input:focused (based upon a:hover, a:visited etc.) I want to have an effect like you have an Mac OS where you get a coloured ring round the currently selected box. Using google is useless because I don't know what this feature of CSS is called! Thanks for your help, Tom I set up a class (named "emphasized") to be bold, italic and color #087112. The color is being applied but for some reason the font is not appearing bold or italicized. (See "Introduction to EFT" text.) The bullets (set up in css as id selector "li") are not being styled either (same thing, the color is applied but not the list styling). Since I'm a new user I'm not allowed to put links in my post but you can see the pages he HTML page can be found at tinyurl dot com /da97nb CSS can be found at tinyurl dot com /de9tqe Help! And thank you! |
