CSS - How To Use One Css File But Different Settings For Different Browsers?
I've found out that IE and Firefox both handle CSS page structure differently. I have a CSS container of width: 740px Height: 960px and IE prints the page with extra spaces at the top and bottom while this same setting is a bit short both width and height wise in Firefox. How do I compensate for both two browsers by using the same CSS file? I don't want to create different CSS for each browser. I have FF 2.0 and IE 7. However, I assumed many of my users will still be using IE6.
Any help is appreciated. Similar TutorialsIs there any way to use multi level drop down menus that work on all browswers(IE 6 and 7, firefox, safari) without using .htc file or javascript included? This is nice, but the css in too messy. http://www.bluescopesteel.com If you have any betterones please tell me. Cheers I need to change some page setup setting for print like orientation, headers and footers Is it possible to define it in CSS. Hello Again, My new site design for www.everything.ie is finally coming together mostly due to the great help I've been getting here. The next little problem I need help with is this. Have a look here first: http://www.grahamvard.com/everything.html Look at the headings for the catagories (grey background with red writing). I'm trying to replicate them on my test site but can't quite get it right. Look here to see my attempts: http://www.eveythingfree.buildtolea...fieds/index.php It's basically alright but I want to make the grey headings boxes bigger so they occupy almost the full width of the 3 columns just like in the example page. Because this part of the page is controled by a php script which generates the text and layout, the only thing I can alter is the style sheet in this case the heading font, .cfmaincat Here's the piece of the .css that controls the heading: Code: .cfmaincat {
FONT-SIZE: 11px;
COLOR: #cc0000;
FONT-STYLE: normal;
FONT-FAMILY: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
TEXT-DECORATION: none;
background-color: #e9e9e9;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
I can't work out what I need to change to fix this, I really hope some of you can. I'm sure it's fairly straightforward, I just don't know what to do. I tried increasing the padding but because the length of words of the heading vary, so too do the grey boxes generated this way. I need them to be all the same size, like in the design example. Many Thanks, Robert I've got an image placed inside a div tag where the div is set to a height and width of 100%. The div has a "fixed" position with a "left" value set to "-36px", which ensure's it shows up exactly where I want it to. Everything that I setup in the style sheet works fine with Firefox 1.5x; the problem - big surprise - is that it doesn't work at all in IE6. Basically what's happening in IE is that the scroll bars are still showing up (which I don't want to happen) and it doesn't appear to be recognising the negative-positioning either. I'm just now learning to use div tags so there's probably some trick I haven't figured out yet. Here's the code I'm using. Code:
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body, html {
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
background-color: #566f5f;
background-image: url(images/bg.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
text-align: center;
}
#myTable {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
position: fixed;
left: -36px;
}
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="myTable"><img src="images/picture.jpg" width="1071" height="738" border="0" usemap="#Map" />
<map name="Map" id="Map">
<area shape="poly" coords="812,437,828,463,1038,409,1018,390" href="mailto:info@email_address.com" alt="Contact Us" />
</map></div>
As I mentioned, it works great in FF but not in IE. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions it would be a massive help Thanks! Hello all! Is there a way to set a resolution % for a certain type of resolution size and any above that resolution to another specific % For example I want it to be: 1024x 768 : width : 90%; and anything higher than 1024x 768 to be 80% since 90% on a resolution higher than 1024 for my navigation is just too make of a banner. Please help/advice. Regards, Kingofqueens. Hi, I've been struggling for a long time now about how to create a CSS menu with opacity of whatever rating. If anyone can help me out by telling me how or a good code source place please please let me know. I found a software which costs a $139 and i really feel its not worth it. So if someone can please help me out. Thanks. Happy New Year! I'm having issues with my website in progress, http://www.vilardojardim.com/about.html Everything seems to be displaying fine in Firefox, Safari and Explorer 8.0.6, but the IE 'Compatibility View Settings' makes the layout go all wiggy. Is there any way of automatically turning this off? Or, can someone help me out with a way to adjust the CSS to avoid the problem altogether? Thanks in advance for any assistance. I have done my best to GOOGLE this problem but am not coming up with anything. I'm fairly certain that there is some setting/code that I need to add in CSS that would make this error go away. When I view my site in INTERNET EXPLORER, the main content box is shoved down almost below the sidebar/nav menu. The site works fine in FIREFOX & CHROME. I was hoping someone could help me. I have attached a picture of what it looks like in IE. Hi, I have the definition of the <body> tag in my external CSS file as follows: body { background:URL("fundo5.gif"); scrollbar-arrow-color: yellow; scrollbar-base-color: black; scrollbar-dark-shadow-color: yellow; scrollbar-track-color: green; scrollbar-face-color: blue; scrollbar-shadow-color: white; scrollbar-highlight-color: silver; scrollbar-3d-light-color: black; } However, this settings do get displayed on IE 6.0 Do I have to set any other properties so that I can change the colors of the scrollbar? thanks in advance Daniel I am using wordpress for my blog/site. I am using Freshnews theme from woothemes as the theme for the blog. Here is the link: demo.woothemes.com/freshnews The font is not that good and it is way too small and the spacing is bad (too congested). How do I change the fonts, size, spacing (line and paragraph) throughout the blog. I know I would have to change it somewhere in the stylesheet. But where exactly and how? And what are the ways to get this done? Should I install a font somewhere? Should I use webfonts (like google webfonts)? What is the advantage in using this? or what are the other ways? I would like to know if anyone has done something like this - I need to have the look and feel of a site totally configurable through a web interface. All data is going to be stored in a database and I would like to know whether I can autogenerate or update a style sheet based on data from a database. Has anyone done this? Or is this the wrong approach to take in such a case? I also have several clients using the same site, each needing to have their own configurations. I would like to avoid having to have a separate style sheet for each client if possible. Can the properties in a stylesheet be set dynamically on a session per session basis? i have images, but i have this Code: * a {
text-decoration:none;
font-weight:bold;
color:#665637;
}
* a:hover {
color:#B39760;
border-top-style: double;
border-top-width: 1px;
border-top-color: #665637;
}
and my anchored images take on the hover property. how can i stop them from doing this and just stay as they were? Hi All, I'm new to the forum. My website's Index page is losing all my body font and color settings, though layout is correct. All of the subfolders' index pages and other pages throughout my website remain unaffected. I've sanity checked it all, and it validates OK. I have an email in to the webhost for some input, but I hoped to get some advice from other CSS-ers who might be in the know. My website is: NickiGreenwood.com I am a romance author and sideline-web-design-junkie. Any help, advice, or even a point in the right direction would be a huge, huge help. Thanks, all. Nicki Greenwood - Romance Author Hi, targeting both IE and FF i seem to experience compatibility issues ... The CSS design on IE looks perfect, but same JSPs on FF gives a little bit of dull on colors (or fade) ... I also found some strange behavior in FF on my struts application which i don;t see when testing on EE. Sometimes a page reloads itself on submit... Any issues around this? Oh, i know blinking text is not adviced, but can't seem to get it to work either (using CSS text-decoration : blink) Thanks for your help I'm in the process of revamping my website and am trying to use css to position things. I've used browsershots to view what the website looks like in different browsers and platforms. All is well with one exception, IE6! Grrr. Now I'm a total css newbie so what I'm doing wrong is probably painfully obvious to you guys, but I've been beating my head against this for a while now and would appreciate it if someone could take a look over my shoulder and see if they can spot the problem. If you use IE6 you'll notice that the featured products are listed below the last 'service ad' image instead of at the top of that 'column' even with the first 'serivce ad' image. Again, any help in diagnosing/fixing this issue is greatly appreciated! Here's a link to the page: http://www.decaldepot.net/zencart/index.php My web site (URL address blocked: See forum rules) is causing me problems with CSS since I have reworked it. If you look at my web pages in Internet Explorer they look perfect. In Firefox when loading some of the pages the top logo blinks and takes a few seconds to load. In Opera some pages move slightly to the right. I know the problem is related to the length of the center div but I have no idea how to fix this unless I make the small centers longer. Also my previous version of this site just used one image. Logo.gif was in the background. I have put Logo.gif in the header and have used GREEN.jpg as my background now. MY CSS body { background-image: url(../images/GREEN.jpg); } div.container { position: relative; margin: 0 auto; width: 746px; height: 840px; } #header { height: 100px; width: 746px; background-image: url(../images/Logo.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: 50% 0%; } #nav { position: absolute; top: 110px; left: 55px; height: 20px; width: 640px; } #left { position: absolute; top: 160px; left: 0px; width: 124px; } #center { position: absolute; top: 160px; left: 130px; width: 441px; height: auto; border: solid; } /* right div at this time has been made invisible. Maybe later add Flash content*/ #right { position: absolute; top: 160px; left: 600px; width: 130px; height: 100px; } /* this div belongs on photo pages and shows the alphabet on the right.Takes place of right div */ #navalpha { position: absolute; top: 160px; left: 600px; width: 100px; height: 130px; font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; border: solid; } /* Start of Top Menu*/ ul { list-style: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; font-size: .95em; } ul li { float: left; margin: 0; padding: 0; } ul li a { color: #777; display: block; text-align: center; text-decoration: none; width: auto; padding: 3px 5px 3px 5px; border-color: #191970; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 0; border-style: solid; } ul li.first a { border-width: 1px; } ul li a:hover { background-color: Fuchsia; color: Yellow; } /* end of Top Menu*/ /* start of side Menu*/ ul#navlist { width: 102px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; border-left: thin solid Black; font-size: .95em; float: left; } ul#navlist li { list-style: none; margin: 0px; border: 0px; } ul#navlist li a { color: #777; width: 102px; padding: 2px 8px 2px 8px; border-color: #191970; border-width: 0px 1px 1px 0; border-style: solid; text-decoration: none; text-align: left; } ul#navlist li.topfirst a { border-top: 1px solid Black; } ul#navlist li a:link { color: Blue; } ul#navlist li a:hover { border-color: #191970; color: Red; background: Yellow; } ul#navlist li a:visited { color: Blue; } /* end of side Menu*/ p { text-align: left; margin: 0 10px 0 10px; } h1 { font-size: 1.05em; color: Navy; text-decoration: underline; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; padding: 0px 0 6px 19px; border-bottom: 1px dashed navy; background: url(cube.gif) no-repeat 0 2px; margin: 0 10px 0 10px; } h2 { font-size: 1em; color: Navy; text-decoration: underline; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; margin: 0 10px 0 10px; } h3 { font-size: .9em; color: Navy; text-decoration: underline; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; margin: 0 10px 0 10px; } a:link { color: #0000FF; text-decoration: none; } a:visited { color: #0000FF; text-decoration: none; } a:hover { color: Red; text-decoration: none; } a:active { text-decoration: none; } /* ....................thumbnail determines how the small photos look */ .thumbnail { float: left; width: 83px; height: 115px; border: 1px solid #999; margin: 0px 15px 5px 0; padding: 5px; } /* .................thumbnailUnitBoard determines how the photos look on Unit Board page */ .thumbnailUnitBoard { float: left; width: 220px; margin: 0px 15px 15px 0; padding: 5px; } I have a three column (25% - 50% - 25%) page layout via CSS which works perfect in IE. But it does not work in Firefox. Here is my CSS code. #leftColumn { float:left; width:25%; margin: 5px 3px 0px; padding: 0; } * html #leftColumn { width:25%; } #rightColumn { float:right; width:25%; margin: 5px 2px 0px 3px; padding: 0; } * html #rightColumn { width:25%; } #main3Column { margin:5px 25% 5px 25%; padding: 0; /* 50% or auto or no width does not work in IE. 100% here is the remaining of the available after left and right columns */ width:100%; } The ID 'main3Column' is for the middle column. Width: 100% works fine in IE as it excludes 25% for left and 25% for right and 100% of whatever remaining for the middle column. But in Firefox, middle column is taking 100% of the screen width instead of the remaining after left and right columns. Is it possible to come up with a code which works for both IE and CSS ? Please help. Hi all, Compatibility with different browsers, link one and link looks good in ie but gets overlap in Firefox and too far apart in Opera.

Here goes goes html. Code: <div id="header"> <h3 align = "center">Welcome to <b>Your Space</b></h3> </div> What is going wrong here? Thank you. Hi All, Just in the middle of designing a website for my personal hobbies. I have used alot of CSS to create the layout of the page. The problem being it looks perfect in Firefox, Opera, Seamonkey etc etc BUT NOT IE!!! In IE it is all over the place, nothing is where it should be. I checked my CSS against w3 validator, and it came back with a few errors, so i decided to fix them... it then looked even worse... in ALL BROWSERS! So i decided to go back to how i had it originally. The site in question is my username. You can access the css stylesheet file by adding /test.css to the end of the domain name. Any information, or anyone else had problem like this? All the best for now, Mike |
