CSS - 2q's - Why Aren't The Images Lining Up, And Why Isn't The Shadow Working?

One, the logo is divided into three parts, and they just don't seem to be lining up correctly. I think they should be right though? Can anyone see why? Second, I found some CSS styling that is supposed to provide a text shadow in any browser. I'm using it because the text for the main links is blending in too much with that background bit. It works in IE6, but it doesn't seem to be working for Firefox, where it's supposed to be using :before I think. I'm unable to test any other browsers except IE7 which I just haven't yet. Here is the attached shadows style sheet code: Code: /* CSS Document */ /* default setup that everything sees */ .shadow { /* needed for Internet explorer */ height: 1em; filter: Shadow(Color=#666666, Direction=135, Strength=5); /* Needed for Gecko */ line-height: 2em; white-space: nowrap; } /* * used by browsers which know about * :before to create the shadow */ .shadow:before { display: block; margin: 0 0 -2.12em 0.15em; padding: 0; color: #666666; } #shadow_1:before { content: 'In shadow'; } #second_2:before { content: 'Happy Shadowing!'; } /*\*/ html*.shadow { [color:red;/* required by Safari * so that [] is correctly * begun. associated with * the property, yet hiding * it. Seen by IE6 */ /* * seen by IE6 and Safari, but hidden * from Gecko */ text-shadow: #666666 5px 5px 5px; ]color:auto; /* resets color for IE6 */ }/**/ /* * end hack using dummy attribute selector * for IE5 mac */ .dummyend[id]{clear: both;} /*\*/ html*.shadow:before { [color:red;/* required by Safari. seen by IE6 */ /* * seen by IE6 and Safari, but hidden * from Gecko */ display: none; ]color:auto; /* resets color for IE6 */ }/**/ /* * end hack using dummy attribute selector * for IE5 mac */ .dummyend[id]{clear: both;} Any assistance is of course greatly appreciated. Thanks! Similar TutorialsI am having issues with a horizontal menu bar. The menu is supposed to be created with 4 images seamlessly aligned, but I find that there is a 3px space between each when I load the page. This causes the width of the 4 images to exceed the specified width specified for that id and a wraparound occurs.

Thanks for the help! Best, Andrew Hi CSS masters, I am building a site for a friend who's starting a concrete business. I just finished making all the BG images, and am now starting the coding process, all CSS based. Well, I'm highly mediocre at CSS design, and could use some help. The build site is here. As you'll be able to see, the entire BG is actually made up of 4 images. The top image repeats along x, the bottom left along why. The other two are to remain static and unrepeated. In IE, the problems are as follows: 1. On top, there is a small white area, and I don't know why. I can't seem to find why it's padded. The two images should but right up against each other to create a seamless piece visually. 2. The part that is currently in the middle should be on the left. Why is it not? 3. The tan portion of the left part should repeat downward along y. It doesn't. Why? In FF, the problems are as follows: 1. The body is not centered. 2. Everything else is fine regarding BG placement (damned IE), but the bottom part of the left image is still not repeating. Help is, as always very much appreciated! Thanks, folks, Chris Hi, I have my images defined in my .css file and then called in the div so that I can write on them and like them this way But the problem is that I seem to be unable to put them side by side because div puts in a line break and span won't show them with their assigned width and height. Any help appriciated!

What I want is one image, a small advert, home image, small advert, next image all in a line. When I test the page with google's Chrome the page looks perfect, but with firefox and IE it's all jumbled up. To understand have a look at the page i've been working on with the three different programs. The link is: www (dot) lisbonweekendguild (dot) com/photowebpage/evora/aqueduct_evora.html Any ideas how to organise it for IE and firefox? Any help is greatly apperciated, as its driving me mad! CSS for the three images is .navigationimagesleft{ margin-right: 8px; margin-left: 8px; } and i'm using dreaweaver CS3..... Hi there, I'm having a tough time getting these two images to align side by side...the line keeps breaking and thus forcing the image to the next line, as show here (not to mention it's messing with my footer): http://www.groundedgroup.com/client...A_Index_v2.html Here's the respective css: CSS Stuff Here's what it's supposed to look like: http://www.groundedgroup.com/client...EA_Show_v2.html Both of the images add up to a total width of 956px, however, the div containing it is set to 947px width. If I change it to 956px, it works, but it pushes out the sides, resulting in the left and right vertical borders not lining up with the rest of header, footer, etc. Ideally, I want these images to hover over this area and thus not spread out the design. Got any ideas? BTW, I checked my css and xhtml before posting and it validates. Thanks for your help. Hello I'm a photographer trying to code my site myself, I'm a control freak and trying to learn css but coding is not my thing. I have two different rollover effects on my page but only one part is working. The links on the right of photo function correctly when I hover over them, but the links on top don't change as they should. a link to my css file Can anyone help me on this? I believe i have the order correct (a:hover follows link and visited) but i'm sure it's an easy fix. Sadly, not for me. Thanks for any help here is my site: chrisziebarth dot com/test My css file is located in /style.css CODE TITLE: CSS drop shadow DESCRIPTION: Technique to build flexible CSS drop shadows (realistic) applied to arbitrary block elements (no images). URL TO CODE: CSS drop shadow example page: here css The links in the footer aren't available in FF (IE is OK)... I thought it had something to do with not clearing the floats, so I added that, now the red boarder(that I was using to try and get a visualization) goes around the whole content div, but the links still are clickable... I read about this somewhere, but I couldn't decipher the fix, and I can't find the page again... How do I fix this? Thanks Bryan This may be a pretty vague question, so I'm sorry in advanced. But I'm working on one of those recipe websites that you get as an assignment during school. Everything seems to be working, like adding comments, writing up recipes, etc. But for some reason, I'm having a huge issue with apostrophes. Whenever I want to add a comment to a recipe that involves an apostrophe in any way, it says "Sorry, there was a problem with your comment." I mostly want to know why this happens on websites instead of getting the direct "this-is-how-you-fix-it" answer, because i've seen this happen on other websites. Hello all.

But my question is why aren't the links clickable in Firefox. They are in IE7, IE6, and Opera but not Firefox or Safari. I know that if I remove position: absolute from the last set of styles that it will work but then everything isn't stacked on top of each other. The problem is that I have a wrapper div that will contain two "boxes", one that has a white background one that has a black background. I want the white background box to be to the left of the black background box, but inside the wrapper div which has a red background. It works just fine in IE (which surprised me) but Firefox is doing something really strange. The black background box starts all the way to the left of the wrapper with the white background box on top of it. Not only that, but the text for the black background box starts below the white background box. I'm new to inserting code, but I'll give it a try: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title>linking to style sheets 2</title> <style type="text/css"> body { background-color: #ccccff; } h1 { font: bold 20px arial, tahoma, verdana; color: #6633ff; border-bottom: 1px solid #444444; margin: 25px 0; padding: 5px; } p { font: 15px verdana; line-height: 1.5em; color: #000077; margin: 0; padding: 0; } .leftbox { width: 300px; background-color: #ffffff; padding: 10px; margin: 10px 10px; float: left; } .rightbox { width: 300px; padding: 10px; margin: 10px 10px; background-color: #000000; } .wrapper { width: 800px; background-color: #ff0000; } .end { clear: both; } </style> </head> <body> <div class="wrapper"> <div class="leftbox"> <h1>Heading 1</h1> <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.

Can anybody help? P.S. I know this isn't really pleasing to the eye, but it's just for demonstration purposes I had my css working fine and then I decided to change the layout and I almost have the new style sheet finished. However, I am trying to divide my header field into 2 columns (each 50% of the width), the left most column will have my banner and the right most column will be split in half (each half being 50% of total height), with 2 rows, one for a search field and the other for my main site navigation. However, the 2 rows are not taking up the 50% of the height that I would like for them to take up. Any ideas as to why? I tried defining min and max height, but that didn't work... Here's my css: Code: /* CSS Document */ h1 { font-family: Geneva, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; color:#000000; } h2{ font-family: Geneva, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; color:#000000; } h4{ font-family: Geneva, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color:#000000; } /*============================ Begin Layout Structure ============================*/ #wrapper { /* main container for everything */ width: 1024px; min-height: 748px; margin: 0 auto; background: #ffffff; overflow: hidden; /* contain inner floats */ position: relative; /* establish the containing block */ } #accounttypeselector { /* select personal or business to affect page display */ height: 25px; background: #0000FF; } #servicesbar { /* container for user services */ height: 30px; /* 30px should be adequate height */ width: 100%; } #servicesbar-services { /* container for user services once logged in */ float: left; /* push this to left side */ width: 75%; /* want it to be 75% of the servicesbar width */ height: 100%; /* since servicesbar container height is 30px should be 100% of this */ background: #ff00ff; } #servicesbar-login { /* for user login and logout - contained inside servicesbar */ float: left; /* should push this just beside services */ width: 25%; height: 100%; /* since servicesbar container height is 30px should be 100% of this */ background: #8B2323; } #header { /*header for the site - will contain logo, search, and main navigation */ float: left; width: 1024px; height: 100px; } #header-logo { /* will include site banner/logo - will be located on left side */ background: #ff0000; width: 50%; float: left; } #header-rightcol { /* column for search and main nav */ width: 50%; float: left; } #header-rightcol-search { min-height: 50%; max-height: 50%; background: #7FFFD4; } #header-rightcol-navmain { /* navbar that will be located below header */ min-height: 50%; max-height:-50%; background: #21ee00; } #bodywrapper { /* wrapper for main content - will have 3 columns here */ width: 1024px; height: 100%; padding-top: 10; } #bodywrapper-navleft { /* sub nav to be lcoated in left column of bodywrapper */ width: 15%; background: #8B8378; float: left; } #bodywrapper-main { /* main content to be located in middle column of bodywrapper */ width: 60%; background: #66CDAA; float: left; } #bodywrapper-news { /* news column to be located in right column of bodywrapper */ width: 25%; background: #8A2BE2; float: left; } #footer { /* footer to be located at bottom of wrapper */ margin: 0 auto; position: relative; width: 1014px; /* will be 1024 with padding */ height: 20px; padding-right: 10px; } and here's my basic html Code: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title></title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="test2.css" /> </head> <body> <div id= "wrapper" > <div id= "accounttypeselector" > Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet </div> <div id= "servicesbar" > <div id= "servicesbar-services" > Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.</div> <div id= "servicesbar-login" > Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</div> </div> <div id= "header" > <div id= "header-logo" > Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.

A few people seem to have had the problem of the a:hover not working right in ie when applied to images. Mine is just applied to a standard bit of text. In my menu (CSS only, no javascript) the descriptions are "display:none" in the initial "a" state and then "display:block" in the a:hover state. Works in Firefox, but not ie. Any ideas? My page is at www.prioritypie.f2s.com/KSA/about.htm You can see the CSS by clicking on the first link on the left hand side of the page. Thanks to anyone who can take away the pain and swearing of the last couple of hours. why won't this work on internet explorer a:hover img { }. This is exactly what i'm using, it works on firefox but doesn't work on IE. You can see it in action here. Code: a:hover img { border: 2px solid #fff; } Hi All! I am hoping that someone might be able to help me out here. I am working on a page layout that consists of a header/logo then beneath that is five link nav bar and then below the content area. The header and content are fine and look great - but the nav bar seems to stepping over to the left a touch (PC IE in particular) and so is messing up the layout! I am finishing the job off for someone and there is a lot of bits and bobs that don't need to be in there - but when I take stuff out it messes up other parts of the layout! this is the layout and this is the css How can I stop the nav from moving and just make go full width (729px)????? Please save my sanity!!!! D I'm very new to CSS, and I'm learning to use div tags for my layout. My navbar is a div within my header div, and it's not lining up the way I'd like. Here's a link for an example: www . cooperworkskilns . com The Home button should be at the bottom left of the header. Here's the pertinent css: #header{ margin:0px 0px 10px 0px; padding:0px; width: 700px; height: 125px; border-bottom: 1px solid #666; background-image:url(../img/header.gif); } #navbar{ margin:0px 0px 0px 0px; padding:0px; width: 700px; } Hi guys, I'm having trouble with the css on the website I'm building. I have a background image and am trying to arrange the navigation link on the left hand side of the page. The trouble is that I can line up images with the background on IE and Firefox but chrome is proving troublesome. I can't figure out why it works fine in Firefox but not in chrome. Can anyone shed some light or offer me an alternative to get the same effect. jamesdrinkwater.co.uk Thanks in advance everyone James Big surprise, issue with IE. I have a layout I'm working on that is tableless. In FF the layout appears as it should, but in IE I'm getting a little bit of a gap between my header image and my nav images.

The site is Shallow Drop The CSS is: Code: html, body { background: url(../images/back.gif) #4a4949; font: 12px Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif; color: #d6d5d5; height: 100%; text-align: center; } a { color: #d6d5d5; font-weight: bold; } a:hover { color: #faec0a; } #container { width: 816px; margin: 0 auto; text-align: left; background: url(../images/fill2.gif) repeat-y center; } #header { width: 816px; height: 118px; } #nav { width: 816px; height: 29px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: top; background: url(../images/date.gif) no-repeat right; } #nav-list { float: left; width: 80%; height: 29px; } #nav a { cursor:crosshair; } #date { float: right; vertical-align: bottom; text-align: left; width: 20%; height: 29px; padding-top: 7px; } #bod { width: 780px; height: auto; margin: 0 auto; padding: 5px; } HTML Code: <div id="container"> <div id="header"> <img src="<?php echo"$GLOBALS[mosConfig_live_site]/templates/$GLOBALS[cur_template]/images/header.gif";?>" alt="Shallow Drop" border="0" usemap="#Map" /> <map name="Map" id="Map"><area shape="rect" coords="33,9,165,117" href="index.php" alt="Home" /></map> </div> <div id="nav"> <span id="nav-list"> <img src="<?php echo"$GLOBALS[mosConfig_live_site]/templates/$GLOBALS[cur_template]/images/left_sun.gif";?>" alt="Shallow Drop Madison, WI" /> ...some more images... </span> <span id="date"><?php echo (strftime (_DATE_FORMAT_LC)); ?></span> </div> <div id="bod"><?php mosMainBody(); ?></div> I have 2 buttons that are not lining up in IE7.
