CSS - Divs (ie Pages) Resized - High-res Monitor
i have a basic navigation system - 12 items divided into 3 columns - fitted together horizontally in a row. On a windows xp machine with a high resolution display which is set to automatically resize all ie browser pages to make them appear larger (readable or lower-res) - somehow my navigation columns no longer fit into a single row...
as far as i know under all other browsers/platforms the menu appears correctly. i've tested the navigation layout in opera, ie, firefox, netscape on my own windows computer, and have tested the pages using some online site that takes snapshots of your page in various browsers on various operating systems (including linux and apple).... the problem may be with the way i am calculating the pixels for the div widths? or...? the page is at gatewoodfarms.com (gatewoodfarms.com/gwf.css) a screenshot of the problem is at gatewoodfarms.com/screenshot.png here is the Basic Structure/CSS: <body style="border:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;min-width:630px;"> <div id="wrap" style="border:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px auto;width:630px;"> <div id="top" style=""> ... <div id="nav" style="border:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;height:90px;width:630px;"> <div id="nav1" style="width:210px;height:90px;border:0px;margin:0px;float:left;"></div> <div id="nav3" style="width:210px;height:90px;border:0px;margin:0px;float:left;"></div> <div id="nav3" style="width:210px;height:90px;border:0px;margin:0px;float:right;"></div> </div> </div> <div id="main" style="border:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;height:auto;width:630px;top:250px;"> ... </div> </div> any ideas how i can fix this? thanks! Similar Tutorialswhat i would like to do is centre my website on any monitor any resolution but i dont know how. could someone explain what i would need to do. im taking a guess but the way i thought you could do it is by putting a div around the whole thing and settinga fixed height and width on auto but i dont think thats right. thanks I have finally got my page set up as required. There is one minor niggle. The footer sits at the bottom of the page when the browser is maximised and has no content. If the browser is not maximised or the content introduces scroll bars the footer is bumped up one pixel in IE. How can I get around this? The footer CSS is below, if you require any more CSS let me know which elements (roughly) as there is a lot of it. PHP Code: #wrap { margin-left: auto; /*center the wrapper CSS2 compliant (all except IE*/ margin-right: auto; margin-top: -21px; width: 760px; top: 21px; min-height: 100%; position: relative; left: 0px; background-image: url(../images/content_bg.gif); text-align: left; } * html #wrap { height:100%; padding-bottom: -20px; } #clear_footer { clear: both; height: 21px; overflow: visible; z-index: 1999; /*background-color: green; Used for demonstration purposes only, remove after testing*/ } #contain_footer { left: 0; margin-top: -21px; width: 100%; height: 21px; background-color: red; background-image: url(../images/contain_footer_bg.gif); padding-bottom: 0px; z-index: 2002; } #footer { position: absolute; bottom: 0; margin: 0 auto; width: 760px; height: 21px; line-height: 21px; vertical-align: center; background-image: url(../images/footer_bg.gif); z-index: 1999; } Perhaps this should go into a Javascript or PHP but I wasn't quite sure. I want to declare a navigation bar's text to a fixed height of 12px which I think is rather easy for MOST anyone to read. What I'm having to do is because the site owner wants a "tabbed" appearance, I'm using images for the sides and will make the background of the text various colors (depending on if their active or not). If a visitor to the site, however, has their text style zoomed, that will considerably disrupt the apparent "image" of the tabs and make it look screwey. Text must be used for SEO so making the tabs a full image is not an option. Any advice? Sorry if this should have gone to a different forum. Thanks. Tim Supposing I have an image that is 200x200 pixels, and I have a div that is 100x100 pixels. I want to place the image inside the div AND have all 4 corners of the image visible. How do I do this? The idea is to fit the image inside the div without the image looking like it got "cut off" on any of its edges. I tried simply changing the CSS width and height but that did not achieve the desired effect. I'm hoping I won't need 4 divs, one for each corner? Hi. I have recently 'finished' my website, currently at http://www.aslo50.dsl.pipex.com I have positioned the images of the album cover absolutely (http://www.aslo50.dsl.pipex.com/music.htm) but they are jumping about when the browser window is resized. They are also overlapped on browser windows with different screen resolutions. The Navigation Buttons are also stacking and overlapping in this manner although they are just positioned in flow. I would be really grateful for any help you can offer. Thanks I'm trying to figure out the exact height of a single line of text in units of em. I have a nice tabbed navigation system going with two levels, but the 1.25em that I had estimated isn't exactly correct (I get some misalignment when changing the font size). By putting a character in a div and modifying the height of another <div> next to it, with the font at max size, I managed to come to 1.165em, but this got misaligned at a few lower font sizes. Does anyone know an accurate measurement for this? Or should I just get it close enough for "normal" font sizes? In case that didn't make sense, I'll try to illustrate with some ASCII art: Code: +---DIV---+ +-DIV-+ |some text| | | <- what height should this be to line up perfectly? +---------+ +-----+ Hello everyone! I'm creating this thread to make a question about something that is happening with my website... Actually I'm not a professional in CSS Coding... I only know some basics and with the help of some friends I've created it (which sadly they doesn't know how to help in this problem as well). I know more HTML than CSS, but to center the website horizontally and vertically I had to change it to CSS Coding. At first, since I use Firefox as the principal browser, I thought it was going right and well centered, but when I opened it in another browsers as Internet Explorer and Opera, the various parts of texts I have included are not well positioned like in Firefox, Google Chrome and Safari, by which looks pretty decent and in the same position in all of them. Unfortunately, since I'm a new member, I can't post links, so I placed some spaces in between at the beginning to be possible: Website: ht tp://w ww.freewebs.com/innocentia/Doc1.htm Errors Preview: ht tp://img651.imageshack.us/img651/1601/errorspreview.jpg Horizontally looks great in any browser and the Menu Bar as well, but not the right text parts...by which vertically looks different to me in IE and Opera only and in the other browsers as well if the monitor sizes are bigger or smaller than mine, which has the size of 1440x990. The CSS Code of the texts parts that can't get vertically fixed is: Code: #header {
height : 60px;
left : 300px;
overflow : auto;
padding : 10px;
position : relative;
top : -100px;
width : 700px;
}
#header p {
margin : 0;
}
#header_wrapper {
width : 700px;
margin-left : auto;
margin-right : auto;
margin-top : 25px;
}
#h3 {
height : 130px;
left : 290px;
overflow : auto;
padding : 20px 10px;
position : relative;
top : -25px;
width : 710px;
}
#h3 ul {
margin : 0;
}
#h3 ul li {
margin : 0 0 3px 0;
}
#h4 {
height : 255px;
left : 250px;
overflow : auto;
padding : 0 10px;
position : relative;
top : -85px;
width : 748px;
}
#h4 ul {
margin : 0;
}
#site_wrapper {
width : 1100px;
margin-left : auto;
margin-right : auto;
background : #eaf0f2 url(link) no-repeat top center;
}
The HTML Code is: Code: <body>
<div id="site_wrapper">
<div id="header">Text</div>
<div id="h3">
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr><td valign="top">Avatar Picture</td>
<td valign="top">
<ul><li><b><font color="#0166AC">Text</ul></td></tr>
</table></div>
<div id="h4">
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr><td valign="top">
<ul><p><font color="#000000"><b>Text</font></b></a></center></ul></td></tr>
</table></div>
I really don't understand what's happening or what I'm missing due to the fact that the menu has the same type of coding like the headers and works completely fine...so I'm somehow lost... My intention was to make it look correct horizontally and vertically like it's shown in Firefox, Google Chrome and Safari in the preview picture, in the other browsers and any different monitor sizes. Also, I already validated my CSS coding! I also searched for many threads to see if I could find solutions but hadn't found any that could actually help... Thank you for the attention and for reading! ^^ Hello all I have a page that uses css for the layout. The issue that I can not figure out how to fix is when someone re-sizes their browser the page content is all resized. How would I lock th positions of each span on the page so even if they resize (smaller) the browser the span's will stay where they are when the page is fully maximized on the users screen? I hope it is clear what I am asking. I tried puttin like a float tag but that does not work at all. Thanks all Jason Hi, I have the following horizontal navigation bar: Code: ul#List
{ list-style-type:none;
margin:0;
padding:0;
width:956px;
font-size:13px;
font-weight:bold;
}
ul#List li
{ display:inline;
}
ul#List li a
{ text-decoration:none;
padding:5px 0;
width:100px;
background:#000000;
color:#FFFFFF;
float:left;
text-align:center;
border-left:1px solid #fff;
}
ul#List li a:hover
{ background:#ADFF2F;
color:#000000;
}
<ul id="List" style="position:absolute;left:0px;top:90px;">
<li><a style="width:91px;" href="">something something</a></li>
............ </ul>
The trouble is when the window is resized (maximized or minimized) at certain points the last list overflows and appears on the next line. How can I prevent this, that is, keep the list on one line when the window is resized. Note I have tried using position:relative and putting the above inside <div> but neither solution worked. If the above code cannot be modified I wonder if someone has a horizontal navigation bar that does what I want. I will be very grateful for all help. So this site is having a bit of trouble in WinIE 6.0. If you resize the window after you load the page, the dark brown area behind the content sort of gets stuck on the right. I'm wondering if it might have something to do with the javascript I had to do to get IE to recognize fixed backgrounds. Any ideas? Site: http://dev.sabotagemedia.com/firstclass/ CSS: http://dev.sabotagemedia.com/firstclass/_css/style.css Hello, For some reason I'm having difficulty with this, I'm designing a page that needs a background image centered even when the browser is resized like on ask.com. I don't need several different background options, just one background. It seems to me it should be simple enough but I'm having one of those nights. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks, Jasontor Hi, how do i set a table to be table 100% wide 100 % high using css? i am using the new dreamweaver that includes this in the header: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> the 100% height and 100% width html values dont' work, i have tried css to get the table 100% but can't can anyone help? Paul I have a very high div which I want to resize depending on the height availible (it has the central BG image) e.g. if the user is on 1024 they dont have to scroll down for miles to see the whole page. But if the user is on a higher res then the div should become the full length available. Is this possible? I thought height: 100%; would work but it doesn't seem to do much. Also had at look at the overflow options but hidden wont do me any good because if the user is on 800x600 then you cant see the rest of the content. Any help appreciated thanks! Well i am working on a new design but there's a problem, if you go to www.majd-gfx.com you see that the left column does not stretch fully (as long as the content column) i have searched for this and found a tutorial on alistapart.com but it wasn't very helpful as i would have had to rework the whole layout. Is there an alternative? p.s. i have tried height:auto and height:100%...neither worked.... please see following code. (i want myHeight becomes dynamis, that mean when user resize the browser, it will be changed automatic w/o refresh the page). thank you. waitting online for the answer. <html> <head> </head> <body > <table> <tr><td>tasd</td></tr> <tr><td> <script type="text/javascript"> var myWidth = 0, myHeight = 0; if( typeof( window.innerWidth ) == 'number' ) { //Non-IE myWidth = window.innerWidth; myHeight = window.innerHeight; } else if( document.documentElement && ( document.documentElement.clientWidth || document.documentElement.clientHeight ) ) { //IE 6+ in 'standards compliant mode' myWidth = document.documentElement.clientWidth; myHeight = document.documentElement.clientHeight; } else if( document.body && ( document.body.clientWidth || document.body.clientHeight ) ) { //IE 4 compatible myWidth = document.body.clientWidth; myHeight = document.body.clientHeight; } //var height = myHeight *.8; document.writeln("<div style='HEIGHT:" + myHeight *.8 + "; WIDTH:100%; OVERFLOW:auto'>"); //return height; </script> <table> <tr><td> msg </td></tr> </table> </div> <td> msg </td> </table> </body> </html> Help! I am trying to build my site in CSS. Here is the CSS for my top layer, despite the size being specified to 130px and an image inside it being 130px high, it is still 5px too high... any ideas?

Thanks. A number of years ago I created a web site for a mattress store where I worked (7 days a week, for 5 years). The point is this: I'm not a great web designer. The code is ancient and the owner wants me to bring the thing up to date. Using tables, I had a system for creating thin, vertical lines that went up and down the entire heighth of the page. The lines divided the content area from the borders in a neat way - although, again, using very old HTML. It looks like this: http://www.wholesalewarehouseinc.com What I'd found was that if I used a fixed-sized header and some tables I could produces the thin line that you see on that page. This was the basic code: Code: <table width=100% height=100% cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 topmargin=0 leftmargin=0 rightmargin=0> <td background="http://www.wholesalewarehouseinc.com/lf.gif" width=50% align=left><td width="1" background="dot.png"> <img src="dot.png"></td> </td><td valign=top> <table cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=0 rightmargin=0 leftmargin=0 bottommargin=0> <img src="logo.png"></td> <td background="http://www.wholesalewarehouseinc.com/lf.gif" width=100% align=left><td width="1" background="dot.png"> <img src="dot.png"></td> </table> My question is this, and maybe this is too general for a meaningful answer. Is there a way to do the same sort of thing with CSS? I've run into a problem with a 3-column layout I'm making. The problem is to get the columns equally high. Previously I've just made the "illusion" of equally high columns by making a background image and repeating it in the y-direction (like this). This works fine as long as the page has a fixed with - in this case the left and right column have a fixed width but the center column is dynamic. So, how can I make all the columns look equally high? (without using tables, obviously) Btw, I can't show you an example of the page, but hopefully you'll get the picture and could point me to an article or something about the subject. EDIT: Never mind! I found an example and it worked! http://www.pixy.cz/blogg/clanky/css-3col-layout/ <-- thats the one. 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. 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? |
