CSS - Pullout Menu Doesn't Work In Ie7
Please help. The code listed below validates.
It is a 2 level pull out menu using only CSS. It works nicely in FireFox and IE 6, but I don't see the sub-menus in IE 7. Why? Is it related to z-index? The files are organized: html, non IE css, IE css. I pulled out the IE specific css to make things more clear. homepage.mac.com/carlamatusow/testmenu/testmenu.html homepage.mac.com/carlamatusow/testmenu/testmenu.css homepage.mac.com/carlamatusow/testmenu/testmenuIE.css Thanks, Carla Similar TutorialsHi, **UPDATE: Problem Fixed...change the z-index of the parent menu element, thanks mizzory!*** Thank you for viewing this post and your help is greatly appreciated! The navagation menu works great in IE8 and Firefox, however in IE7, the drop-down hides behind the content div. I have tried assigning z-index to the divs, but with no luck. #wrap { margin:auto; width:1000px; background-color: #FFFFFF; background-repeat: repeat-y; min-height:100%; position:relative; } html, body { margin:0; padding:0; height:100%; } #content { min-height: 400px; padding-bottom:50px; /* Height of the footer */ position:relative; } #header { height: 200px; } #footer { position:absolute; bottom:0; width:100%; height:50px; /* Height of the footer */ font-size: 14px; font:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, bold; text-align:center; color:#FFFFFF; } /*horizontal menu specifications*/ #menu { background: #FFFFFF; float: left; height:40px; } #menu ul { list-style: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 142.85px; float: left; } #menu a, #menu h2 { font: bold 13px arial, helvetica, sans-serif; display: block; border-width: 1px; border-style: solid; border-color: #FFFFFF; margin: 0; padding: 2px; text-align:center; } /* main menu header: set font colour and background colour */ #menu h2 { color: #FFFFFF; background: #0066CC; text-decoration:none; } /* main menu dropdown: set font colour, background colour, no underline for hyperlink */ #menu a { color: #000000; background: #CCCCCC; border-color: #000000; text-decoration: none; } /* main menu dropdown mouse hovering: set font colour, background colour*/ #menu a:hover { color: #E4001B; background: #FFFFFF; } /*position the pop out menu*/ #menu li { position: relative; } #menu ul ul { position: absolute; z-index: 500; } div#menu ul ul, div#menu ul li:hover ul ul, div#menu ul ul li:hover ul ul { display: none; } div#menu ul li:hover ul, div#menu ul ul li:hover ul, div#menu ul ul ul li:hover ul { display: block; } -S Hi, I have a two column CSS layout - the stylesheet and web page that uses it are attached. I tried to put a menu in the left column (technically div) - of this web page. This is a menu that uses JS mouseover and mouseout to set the style of the children menus to block or none - to show or hide the children or submenu items. onmouseover="document.all.child1.style.display='block' onmouseout="document.all.child1.style.display='none' When you mouseover the menu item, children menu items underneath it are supposed to be displayed, but they're not. Please look at the style sheet - and web page. Any idea why this menu works outside of the CSS two column layout, but not when I place the code inside this layout?????? Thanks Vmusic My drop menu works fine in IE7, however in firefox the menu's don't drop. Anyhelp would be appreciated. Here is my css code. Code: #menu { width: 769px; height: 27px; margin: 0px auto; padding: 5px 0px 5px 0px; background: #000000 url(images/SDCB-menu-bar.gif); } #menu ul { list-style: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 125px; float: left; } #menu a, #menu h2 { font: bold 11px/16px arial, helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center; display: block; border-width: 1px; border-style: solid; border-color: #ccc #888 #555 #bbb; margin: 0; padding: 2px 3px; } #menu h2 { color: #fff; background: #000000 url(images/SDCB-menu-bar.gif); text-transform: uppercase; } #menu a { color: #000; background: #efefef; text-decoration: none; } #menu a:hover { color: #a00; background: #fff; } #menu li { position: relative; } #menu ul ul { position: absolute; z-index: 500; } #menu ul ul ul { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 100%; } div#menu ul ul, div#menu ul li:hover ul ul, div#menu ul ul li:hover ul ul {display: none;} div#menu ul li:hover ul, div#menu ul ul li:hover ul, div#menu ul ul ul li:hover ul {display: block;} Here is the HTML.

I just want the link to change color, I imported the css file to my html and it worked for the first time. I clicked on the link and then use brower's "Back" button to test it again, but the hover feature is not working anymore. I think it may be affected by the a:visited style, but how do I make a:hover work all the time? Thanks for helping. (please note, i'm a noob).. What i have right now: ################ HTML: ################ <div id="aboutusimage"></div> ################ CSS: ################ #aboutusimage { width:400px; height:75px; background-image:url(/images/about.jpg); position:relative; left:189px; top: 4px; margin-bottom:30px; } ======================== What i'd like to have: ################ HTML: ################ <div id="banner" class="about"></div> ################ CSS: ################ #banner { width:400px; height:75px; position:relative; left:189px; top: 4px; margin-bottom:30px; } #banner.about { background-image:url(/images/about.jpg); } ====================== For some reason, the image disapears when i do this :\ Any advice? Hi there, Sorry for being silly and pathetic and crap at CSS, but I'm having an issue with a site I've been working on. Site URL is here, and the issue that I am having is as follows: I have a layer with a cloud as it's background. It's the one in the centre, called layer1 because I didn't bother renaming it. Because of the background being a cloud, the edges are curved, like a fluffy cloud would be. Obviously any text in this layer will overrun the edges of the cloud, and so I thought it would make sense to use padding to trim the text area down so it would all fit on the cloud. Now the problem that I am having is that while padding the left side works, padding the right side appears to have no effect :-( If anyone's got any hints or tips that might solve my proble, I'd be reeeeally grateful! Regards, Lawrence Hi All, We develoepd an Application for a client. This application uses CSS for all text including drop-down menu text and input box text. My client is using XP as their OS and he tells me (sent a screen capture as well) he CANNOT read the drop-down boxes. Text is too small. On our machines (Win 98) there are no problems. Have tested on about 15 different client computers with no problems. Browser is not an issue as its the same for him on both Netscape and IE. Does ANYONE have a clue how to fix this? Doesn't seem logical to me - one OS should be the same as the other. However, we're talkin about MS products and who knows with them. Need urgent help on this one.. please.. anyone with ideas help me! thanks all. Peace. Aaron Hi guys, I've trying to achieve the following. I want to have a div element floating on the right 100px from the top and the rest of content is filled with text. PHP Code: <div>[image]</div><p>text 1</p><p>text 2</p> I could do this easily with simple float:right but then the image would at 0px from top and if I try to move it down (using margin or padding) the text wouldn't reach above it (would get cut off at the width of the image form the right) If I try to add another div with 100px height and 10px (for example) width above the image, the text overlaps over my image div Any ideas how to achieve this?

This date uses the .createdate css class, which is this Code: .createdate { color: #A9A9A9; vertical-align: top; padding-bottom:2px; float: right; font-size: 11px; } I don't know why IE shows it at left... FF shows ok Is there any way to correct this class, and make date show at right in this pseudo browser, worm collector, spyware downloader called IE ? Thanks I'm wondering why does the padding doesn't work for the <p> tag...

I have it set to 100%, but it only goes about 1/4 of the way. You can see what I mean here, on a test server, http://samuraiblog.dreamhost.com/index.php Thanks, -Sam Hi, link to wesbite why doesn't the drop down menu, that works in IE6 not work in Firefox 0.8? It is pure CSS, no Javascript. OK, I know it doesn't validate and don't care too much about that. I know putting tables inside an anchor tag is frowned on but hey, it works and I didn't think it up. I thought IE was the worst when it came to CSS compliance? Any ideas how I can fix it? Thanks, John My site works fine with Opera 7 but refuses to work properly with IE6 and Firefox. There's definately a problem with how each browser renders my CSS. I for one cannot figure out what to change so that the site would work with all three browsers. That being said, would anyone be grateful enough to help me out? Thanks! URL: URL I've included some screenshots of how the site looks like on all three browsers. URL URL URL This is my CSS File: PHP Code: .linkbody { padding: 15px 15px 6px; color: white; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; width: 160px; background-color: #006EA1; } and this my html file: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <HTML> <head> <title> Schmid </title> <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="css2.css"> </head> <body> <center> <table class="linkbody" width="800"> <tr> <td> ddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd </td> </tr> </table> </center> </body> </HTML> In Firefox the padding works fine, but in the IE6 it doesn't work at all makes me angry thx for any help http://www.invalidheart.org/carrie/ it doesn't work in anything but my resolution... can anyone help me fix this? I've had a huge hard time with this layout making it fit right, i tried using all css and i couldn't get it to fit. any suggestions? Obviously something is just not clicking for me. I've spent almost all day reading, and everyone makes it sound so darn easy! I have 2 basic problems, and it doesn't seem like they should be that hard to fix. The test site is at lgs.lambrite.com/test.htm and the stylesheet is lgs.lambrite.com/new.css Problem 1. For the life of me, I cannot get the link that says "Skip To Content" to accept the more specific set of link colors. I have tried every variation I can think of, with no luck. Code: <div id="subnav0" style="position:absolute; width:769px; height:22px; z-index:3; top: 192px; visibility: visible;" class="subnav"><a href="#content">Skip to Content</a></div> Code: .subnav #subnav0 a:link a:visited a:hover a:active { color: #343457; text-decoration: none; } My second issue is a little more complicated. Right now, all my layers have their positions hard-coded. This means that the content area is fixed in height, and I need it to be able to expand to accomodate the text. I did this because I was not able to (figure out how to) place the many subnav layers in the same position to do the rollovers, the wrapper would not expand properly, and the footer would not regularly start below the end of the content. Even a good example of a similar layout would be helpful; everything that I find uses 2-3 columns, float and the clear property. I really want to understand this stuff, but if I don't figure this one out in a few days, I'm going to have to use tables and learn it the next time around. So I really appreciate any input. Thanks! Sarah Hi. I want to set my page's background colour through an external stylesheet. I have this: Code: body { background-color: #CAB284; text-align: center; } But it doesn't affect my page. I'm using it in firefox. Every thing else in the stylesheet works correctly except this. When I enter this stuff in the actual body tag of the page using style="" it works though. I don't want to do it that way as it takes longer to change everything when I find a better background colour. Can anyone help? Thanks, Matthew Hello. I am new to css and i made the following h1{ position:absolute; left:850px; top:300px; color:green; } I put this in a form that i wanted to be shown at the right bottom of my screen and in mozzila it worked fine, but i found out that in internet explorer it didn't and in general i coudn't view right anything that had specific positions. Is there a bug? Hi, First I am a newbie for css and JS. I got a free code from web and developed the following site, http://www.rit.edu/~801www/BackupReliability/ The css and javascipt that I am using is not working properly in Mozilla. Could some one show me please how to fix it???? If you could see most of the text is over flowing in the scrolling area?? Can someone please give me some ideas. Thanks a million in advance. WOOW Hi all, A simple problem he http://ntcjapan.com/contactus_apply.php The page validates under W3C, but CSS validation fails. It's because of the following Javascript on the page: Code: if (!(isWhitespace(form.from_email.value)) && !(checkEmail(form.from_email.value))) { alert("Please enter a valid email address."); form.from_email.focus(); return false; } The && is causing problems with CSS validation - any idea how I can bypass this? Thanks in advance |
