CSS - Can't Seem To Postion This Divs Z-index In Ie
I have a Menu thats slides down when a link is clicked. In IE6, when the div slides down, it pushes everything below it, once it's hit the top of that child div.
I tried setting my z-index to 9999 for the div that comes down and over the content, and setting the child z-index to 1. But for both of those, it still pushes my #SubPage down. To see what I am talking about, if you can visit: Quidel Univ. use login ID: 2097 Once you get logged in, click on "Events". Once there, hit the "Admin Menu" link on the top-right and you'll see what I'm talking about. This is my menu container code: CSS Code: Original - CSS Code #adminContainer { width: 261px; float: left; position: relative; z-index: 9999; }
#adminContainer { width: 261px; float: left; position: relative; z-index: 9999; }
And this is my #SubPage code: CSS Code: Original - CSS Code #SubPage { float: left; width: 553px; padding: 5px; z-index: 1; }
#SubPage { float: left; width: 553px; padding: 5px; z-index: 1; }
Been playing with the positioning and z-index, but can't seem to get it to my liking.... and as I typed this, I just thought to myself , I haven't even attempted to edit my iestyles.css sheet. DOH! Going to do that, but I'll leave this up in case someone knows my stupid mistake! TIA! Similar TutorialsOk. I have coded loads of sites in CSS but have never come across this problem before, and have hit a big bloody brick wall on it! Any help would be greatly appreciated. So.... i have an outer div with a 1px border and other divs inside of this outer div, one of which i want to give a negative margin to so that it sits under the border of the outer div.... I thought i could just give the div i want to sit under the outer div a negative z-index, and this does actually work on FF, however IE6 and Safari 1.3.2 dont like it and it just appears above the border. does that make sense? here's the code so you can see what i'm waffling on about.... Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled</title>

</html>
Bear in mind also that this is a simplified version of the page, and there is other stuff below the outer div that flows down as the text size expands.... thanks in advance for any help! graham Hi there just wanted to ask a question. I got a table in css and i just want to know what is the command to move an image to the centre of the table. Thank you Hey all, so, yet again IE has managed to turn what SHOULD be a simple list into a broken mess. Here's the page. Obviously not a whole lot to it. It forces the li's to the right. According to my calculations, all the math adds up as it should, and it works as it should in other browsers, and validates with a strict doctype. HTML; Code: <body> <div id="wrap"> <!-- OPENS WRAP --> <div id="header"> <!-- OPENS HEADER --> <div id="menu"> <!-- OPENS MENU --> <ul> <li>home</li> <li>profile</li> <li>portfolio</li> <li>resources</li> <li>contact</li> </ul> </div> <!-- CLOSES MENU --> </div> <!-- CLOSES HEADER --> </div> <!-- CLOSES WRAP --> </body> CSS; Code:
html, body {
height:100%;
}
body {

any thoughts? thanks Here is the page the > Enlarge link below the picture doesn't work in FF - but it does in IE. I was wondering if it was because it was an absolute position?? Or is something else going on?? Here is the css: Code:
#productPage .compact a {
text-decoration: underline;
position: absolute;
right: 175px;
top: 200px;
}
Here is the xhtml: Code:
<span class="productImg"><img src="../images/compact.jpg" width="249" height="205" alt="Vitalograph COMPACT spirometer" /></span>
<span class="compact"><a href="../images/compact_large.jpg">>Enlarge</a></span>
I know that IE reacts to CSS different than FF or Opera etc. I 2 columns (left & right). When the page loads it shifts the columns to the right & down a few pixels. When you roll your mouse over it they go into place. This only happens in IE. Also, I have an image that is 45% transparent. I saved it as a png and gif. IE will not display it as transparent. In FF & Opera it does. Then in Opera, the background image does not center. It aligns to the top. I know that they are some hack to fix these issues. I used Google, to try an resolve my issues. I my search terms must not have been correct. Here is what I am using thus far. CSS Code: Original - CSS Code body { background-image: url(images/main-bg.jpg); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-color: #495877; background-position: center; } h3, h4 { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helevetica, sans-serif; font-stretch: wider; color: #000; } #leftcolumn { float:left; margin-top: 22%; margin-left: 20%; width: 120px; height: 250px; border: 1px solid #FAF0E6; background-image: url(images/fade_bg.png); background-color: transparent; padding: 5px; padding-left: 8px; font-family: Poor Richard;/*Verdana, Arial, Helevetica, sans-serif;*/ font-size: small; font-color: #FFF; } * html #leftcolumn { /*IE only style*/ margin-top: 22%; margin-left: 10%; padding: 0px; padding-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; } #leftcolumn a { padding: 3px 1px; border: 0px solid white; display: block; width: 100%; text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; color: #000; } #leftcolumn a:hover { background-color: #cca411; } #rightcolumn { float:left; margin-top: 22%; margin-left: 6%; width: 350px; min-height: 300px; border: 1px solid #FAF0E6; background-image: url(images/fade_bg.png); font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helevetica, sans-serif; font-size: smaller; color: #FFF; padding: 5px; padding-bottom: 8px; } * html #rightcolumn { /*IE only style*/ height: 300px; } .navindent { font-family: Scholar; /*Verdana, Arial, Helevetica, sans-serif; */ font-size: 10px; text-indent: 8px; color: #000;

Learning CSS has been fun!! Thank You for any suggestions. 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. 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? 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;
}
.boxRowBottom {
height: 16px;
width:%100;
position: relative;
}
.boxCellLeft {
height: 100%;
left: 0;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
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;
}
.boxRowTop .boxCellRight {
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,

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated, as I've been working on this for a while! Thanks! hi, i've been reading extensively about the z-index issue that IE 7 suffers from (when using the "position" property) but i cannot for the life of me fix my problem. Basically i have a #menu that is positioned relative to a #wrapper. The dropdown menu works fine in all browsers except that in IE 7, the grey shadow that should appear behind the dropdown menu itself appears on top of the actual dropdown menu. If you view the same page using Firefox, the dropdown menu appears above the grey shadow as it should do. This is the EXACT behaviour i need. I need the dropdown menu and its shadow to appear above the "#content .box" below it, but i also need the shadow to appear behind the dropdown menu. I just need to replicate this exact behaviour you see in Firefox in IE 7. I need to keep the IE7 compatibility mode and the DOCTYPE as they are otherwise the other styles on my site will be affected. Please find the attached folder with all necessary code contained in it. Ignore the jquery.js file as its merely used for effects and is not causing the issue. BTW: its essential that the #menu is positioned relative to the #wrapper as i want it to appear further down in the HTML code for SEO purposes. Thanks in advance Having an issue with a drop down menu in firefox. I have a nav bar with drop down menus. Just below that is an embedded video. Everything works fine except for the drop down menu is behind the video on firefox. Looks fine in IE. I adjusted the z-index properties to make sure that the nav bar sits on top, but it still sits behind. ??? Is it a glitch of some sort? I have two elements. One has a z-index of 9999 and the other has 9000. Both elements are positioned. It is a modal popup window. When I open it, the element with a poistion of 9000 is on top of the one with 9999. I even checked to confirm that the z-index properties were the same once the popup completed. What could cause this? [sorry for any duplication... I just submitted this to the HTML list but suddenly realized it's really a CSS problem] I have a couple web pages that include relatively long pop-up "help" fields... implemented with the display and index style elements. With Netscape or Safari they look fine, but with IE or Opera, some underlying elements "bleed through"; that is, some elements from a div with a lower z-index, which should be behind, seem to float off the rear document and appear in front of the front document. All of the problem elements seem to be within forms and (probably more importantly) they all seem to be in a DIV other than the DIV containing the pop up. That is each structure looks something like: <div> <div> ... the pop up </div> <div> the rest of this section </div> </div> <div> ... some more stuff </div> the proplems are in the area in which the pop up overlaps later divisons. (not all items so conflict) ... any ideas? An old site, http://www.naausa.org, doesn't work properly in IE7 as the hover links don't go over the changing image. It seems to be because of the IE bug: http://therealcrisp.xs4all.nl/meuk/IE-zindexbug.html The site and code is ugly (inline CSS, tables, etc.), but I don't want to reinvent the wheel; I just want to solve the problem and get it over with. I've tried several things with no luck. Can anyone take a gander at the source code and give me a hint? Thanks, Jeremy I am not sure why this is not working but I am trying to nest a div and overlay them. Code:
<style>
.txtImg {
posistion: relative;
z-index: 99;
height: 72px;
width: 100%;
background: url(../../images/roycity-gpl-01.png) no-repeat left;
}
.logo {
position: relative;
z-index: 1;
height: 72px;
width: 100%;
background: no-repeat right;
}
</style>
<div id="txt" class="txtImg" align="left">
<div id="bg-img" class="logo" align="right"></div>
</div>
Hi everyone, I'm currently busy on a website which is viewable here The problem is the 'Top' image on the right side. It's supposed to be below the #shadow div (look at my source code) I tried changing the z-indexes to different levels but the top div keeps staying on top. If I turn it into a negative z-index, the mouseover doesn't work anymore.. Hope anyone can help Wouter |
