CSS - How Do I Know The Shorthand Property Value Format?

My documentation for css shows that content: url(); works in navigator but not in ie. The info I've got is dated. Does the content property work in the newer ie browsers?

Question:
I have two class below. What I want is when I change the padding-top property value in div.content-full, I also want the padding-top property value in the div.content change to the same value



div.content-full
{
float:left;
width:100%;
padding-top:10px;
margin:0px;
}

div.content
{

float:left;
width:70%;
padding-top:06px;
margin:0px;

}

Can anybody help me out?

I'm trying to create some links that swap background images when you mouseover them. The non-CSS solution (which looks exactly how I want it to look) is located he

http://84.9.221.75/domains/backingt...Musicindex.html

My attempt at creating a CSS equivalent of those links is located on this page:

http://84.9.221.75/domains/backingt...Musicindex.html

I just need some help with the CSS I'm using on the latter page...I read up a little on how to do this, but it's obvious I'm still doing something wrong...

I need the buttons and the text inside the buttons to line up and appear like they do in the first URL....can anyone give me some pointers here? Thank you.

This style is use useful or not

@property-group title-style() {
color: #004080;
font-weight: bold;
}

@property-group standard-vmargins() {
margin: 1.33ex 0;
}

title,
subtitle,
titleabbrev {
display: block;
property-group: title-style();
property-group: standard-vmargins();
}


This is not support IE...

I am wondering if there is some way to make a <div> layer automatically expand to the full height of the screen similar to the way that one would use width=100% when talking about the width of a page.

I have a layer that I want to extend to the bottom of the page no matter what resolution the user has on their screen. Maybe the layer could just extend all the way until the next layer?

Any Ideas?

Thanks

Hi,

i am very new to css and I am confused about the difference between

margin-top vs top

please help
Regards
Ltoso

Ok what i want to happen is that when person clicks on a link i want a div to appear/be visible underneath that link. But i want that div to not take any space unless i click on a link.

I recently did something similar BUT the div was taking the space but was just hidden.

I am trying to figure out how I can get this red curve to align to the bottom of the page, while also being able to move up and down with the size of the browser window.

Any help would be great.

I'm pretty new to css but now use one css file for all of the formatting of my entire website. The only problem I see with that (I say problem because I can't figure out a way around it) is that all of my hyperlinks throughout the website have only one normal state, hover state, active state and visited state. Is there a way to make more than one hyperlink set of formats? Like if I wanted to make one for each page? I could do something like ahomepage:link, ahomepage:visited, ahomepage:active or something???

Code:

a:link, a:visited, a:active  { font-size:12px; font-weight:normal; font-family: times; text-decoration:none; color : #000000 }
a:hover                      { font-size:12px; font-weight:normal; font-family: times; text-decoration:underline; color : #000000 }

Thanks for all the continued help/support. . . Makes learning CSS so much easier!

Question: I set the html up like this on purpose to grasp the concept. <p> tags are block level containers. So each new set of <p> tags should equal start on new line.

w/the float property holding a value of left, it floats all content to the left.

Since each instance of float occurs in its own container...the two different <p> sets should not be affected.

In short, the password: paragraph should be on a new line, not both on the same line. There should be no need to clear it because they are in their own containers - which are block level.

Where is my logic/understanding of CSS flawed?

HTML:
Code:

<div id="clientLoginBoxBody">
	<form action=#">
	<br />
	<p class="user">Username:</p>
						
	<p class="pass">Password:</p>
      </form>
</div>

CSS:
Code:

#clientLoginBoxBody p.user, p.pass {
float: left;
margin: 0;
margin-left: 10px;
padding: 0;
font-size: 12px;
text-align: right;
}

Question)

In CSS can you line-height be set to a lower value than the current font size?

What does this cause? potential answers (practise revision exam are)


A) line-height cannot be set to a value lower than the current font size
B) The lines are cut to prevent overlapping
C) The lines will overlap

I am pretty sure they overlap but want to confirm

<div id="whatever"><img src="..." /></div>

div#whatever {
overflow: hidden;
background-color: gray;
}

div#whatever img{
float:right;
}

When I set overflow: visible; the image is not properly
wrapped within the div.

When I set overflow: hidden; the image is properly
contained within the div. (you can see with gray background)

My question is, w3schools.com says that overflow property
visible - show the content even if it overflows
hidden - hide the part of the content that overflows

With those definitions, I should be seeing the image chopped
by div and don't even see it at all?

Basically I have a div that fills up the main div(main). The reason that there are 2 other divs is because one is slightly translucent and I didn't want the text to be translucent so it is for sitting on top of it and displaying the text, (I know it doesn't do that right now, this is just example code). My problem is that I want the div(test) to fill up the main div(main) from a certain point down, that is make it start 151px from the top and then expand until the bottom of the main div. I discovered that you can do this in firefox and opera by placing a - at the end of the height:100%. I don't know if this is correct, but it works. It does not work however in ie6. i can chop it using overflow:hidden;, but thats not really the functionality I want since the div in the final version will have a border on it. Is there someway to make it display the same way in Internet Explorer 6 as in firefox?

Thanks

Trying to use css to make a border around an element, and am using:

.navbar { border: 1px solid red; }

In IE, it puts a border around the navigational bar, but in FF, it only puts 1 line above it. Even if I try independently adding:
border-left
border-right
border-bottom

etc, it only shows above for border-top and border-bottom and nothing for left and right.

I can place the code if needed, but I really just have a few words typed to try and get this to work. It's of strict doctype if that matters.

Does FF have something special I need to add to get border to work?

Thanks.
