CSS - Label Style Ignored
I have a form label styled from an external stylesheet. I don't understand why some style options don't seem to work. For example, setting the width of the label seems to have no effect. But setting the font does work. I assume it is because of some parent div style? The stylesheet is from a template in which I am attempting to make some additions. I'm actually having the same problem with unordered lists. Could someone explain what would cause some style options to be ignored? I can post the stylesheet, but it is rather long. Thanks.
Similar TutorialsHello. I have code like this one Code: <div class='captionCell cbregName'> <label for="cbpplan10">AVATAR DESIGN</label> </div> how to hide just that label. Since there is many <div class='captionCell cbregName'> but labels are named different like for="cbblane9"... Hello. I'm nesting inputs within labels to enable me to position the inputs underneath their labels. (I use relative positioning for the labels and absolute positioning to move the inputs underneath and slightly to the right.) For one label I don't want any text to appear. I could use a non-breaking space but I'd ideally like to keep the label but just not show the text. But I can't hide it because it contains the input What would be a good way to approach this? (I've given the label a class to identify it/them.) Code: <form id="myForm" method="">
<label>Email<input type="text" id="txtEMail" /></label>
<label>Password<input type="text" id="txtPWord" /></label>
<label class=" lblHidden " >Login<input type="image" src="images/login.jpg" id="btnLogin" /></label>
</form>
[It occurred to me to set the width to 0 but I'm not so keen on this approach and it might interfere with my positioning.] Andy. PS I could post my css if it's useful (?). Edited: width:0px doesn't do anything anyway, because it contains an image. Not the best title, but I couldn't think of a better way to describe what I am trying to do. I currently use css to position form elements and their labels nicely without the use of tables. I now want to be able to add fieldset tags, encapsulating a bunch of radio or checkboxes, and a legend tag, and have that legend tag appear exactly as my current label tags do. Easier to look at the demo page I think: http://markdw.com/formTest.html Looks fantastic in FF, almost perfect in IE, but not so good in Safari (all on a PC). I can fix the positioning of the fieldset in Safari by removing the top:-18px and margin-top:-18px styles, but no matter what I do I cannot get the LEGEND to show up on the page. The same applies to IE6 I just noticed. a) I hope the code is useful and/or interesting to others, and b) I hope someone will be able to help me with the safari issue Many thanks. Here is my problem: keoasian .com/details If you look at the contact form, it does not properly line up. I've had this problem on another site before but I forget how I fixed it. The solution is probably simple, I just can't think of it. By the way, this may not show up on all browsers as a problem. I initially designed and tested this page on a Windows XP machine with 1024x768 running Google Chrome; now I am on a Mac OSX computer with 1280x800 resolution testing it on Chrome and Firefox. Hello, I am trying to create a drop down list with a label, and have them align. I simply want the label to display left of the drop list. I can't seem to get them to do it. It sits inside a topoptsbox div tag (css below). Code: <form name="bpmform"> <label for="bpmfrom" class="bpmddl">BPM From</label> <select class="bpmddl" id="bpmfrom" name="bpmfrom"> <option id="0from" value="0">0</option> <option id="50from" value="50">50</option> <option id="100from" value="100">100</option> <option id="150from" value="150">150</option> </select> </form> Code:
#topoptsbox {
border-style: inset;
border-width: 1px;
width: 1000px;
height: 80px;
float: left;
display: block;
}
Hi, I am trying to create a very simple login form. Before I used to develop everything with tables, so I had the email label and password label alligned under each other correctly. Now I am trying to do it only with divs, spans and css, however i can not give a fixed with the span or labels so that email and password are alligned under each other! Here is the html file I have. Basically I have to login forms, one with css and the other one with tables. You can see that the table example has email and password label alligned under each other keeping the same width, while in the css example email takes less space then password. I tried setting the witdh to the label, but it did not work! Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Login</title>
<style>
div.login{
border: 1px solid red;
}
div.login label{
border: 1px solid green;
width: 200px;
text-align:left;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
Example with only divs, span and css:
<div class="login">
<div>
<label>
Email
</label>
<input id="username" name="username"
type="text" value="" />
</div>
<div>
<label>
Password
</label>
<input id="username" name="username"
type="password" value="" />
</div>
<div>
<input type="submit" value="Login" />
<input type="button" value="Register" />
<input type="button" value="Forgot Password" />
</div>
</div>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Example with tables.
<table>
<tr>
<td>Email</td>
<td>
<input id="username" name="username"
type="text" value="" />
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Password</td>
<td>
<input id="username" name="username"
type="password" value="" />
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<input type="submit" value="Login" />
<input type="button" value="Register" />
<input type="button" value="Forgot Password" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
What should I do to my css to set a width to a label or span? thanks and regards, sim085 Hi gyus! I am trying to recode an form we use, which is based on table layout, to use CSS layout instead, using the label element. The old layout had one input per row with a description text next to the input. After coming up with a successful CSS layout in Safari/Firefox/Opera I tried the page in IE and the layout failed. All my inputs are floated to the left (at the top, stacked after each other), but the labels are rendered correctly (one label per line) It seems like the label elements doesn't seem to clear the float (so that the label and inputs are aligned) I broke the code down to the following example: (sorry guys, I don't have the possibility to put it on an publicly accessible server) Code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!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" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <title>Testing</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="test.css"/> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8;"/> </head> <body> <form name="service" action="label2.html" method="post" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" accept-charset="UTF-8"> <div> <label for="audio_level">Audio Level:</label> <input type="text" id="audio_level" value="0"/> <label for="audio_level1">Audio Level:</label> <input type="text" id="audio_level1" value="0"/> <label for="audio_level2">Audio Level:</label> <input type="text" id="audio_level2" value="0"/> <label for="audio_level3">Audio Level:</label> <input type="text" id="audio_level3" value="0"/> </div> </form> </body> </html> And the CSS: Code:
body {
width:800px;
}
label {
display:block;
float:left;
clear:left;
width:100px;
text-align:left;
}
input {
display:block;
float:left;
width:100px;
}
Applying a <br> element with clear:left after each input seems to fix it, but I is adding extra markup really necessary? I can't figure out what I am missing to get the one label/input per "line" I am just wondering if there is a way to simply extend a style rule from one previously defined. For instance, if I have this rule: Code:
.textarea-box {
color: #990000;
background-color: #fff;
width: 375px;
height: 200px;
border: #000 solid 1px;
}
...if I want another text area rule to be the same except for one difference, the height should be 80px, do I have to write the rule out again with a new name, incorporating the new height, or is there some nifty way to just change the height in the new rule? Thanks for help with this. j9 Hi all, I'm implementing a web form where the labels for each input will appear as the default value rather than having the actual label elements visible. The label elements themselves will still be present in the markup for accessibility. I want to visually remove the labels while still having them acknowledged by screen readers. I'm aware of the left-offset trick, but I've read several articles where it's suggested to simple set the labels to display: none with JavaScript after the DOM has loaded. This seems to assume that screen readers will ignore this, otherwise there you might as well just set them as display: none in the first place. Can anyone confirm that a screen reader will still acknowledge a label element if display: none has only been applied after the DOM load via JavaScript? Thanks! I have a menu bar made up of <a href> elements that have a hover style of:
PHP Code: #mainMenu a:hover { color:#000000; background-color: #66c74c; padding: 1px 4px 1px 4px; margin: 1px 1px 1px 1px; } This will provide a green colored rollover visual as the user moves their mouse over the menu bar. I just added some JS today that will highlight the clicked (selected) menu so there is visual feedback of the section the user is in. For some reason, after setting the background color of the <a href> and color attributes, the HOVER: no longer functions. Here is the code to do the hilite where I pass the ID of the <a href> menu selection in the variable "menu": PHP Code: //--- Simplify setup by creating an array of the menus and hilight ID's --- var menus = ["menu1","menu2","menu3","menu4","menu5", "menu6","menu7","menu8","menu9","menu10"]; function J_hiliteMenu(menu) { //--- first make sure all the menu are hidden and unhilited --- for(i=0; i < menus.length; i++) { if (menus[i] == menu) theIndex = i; // Hold on to the chosen index position var obj = document.getElementById(menus[i]); if (obj == null) continue; // if menu is not available skip it obj.style.color = "#ffffff"; obj.style.backgroundColor = "#234fd7"; } //--- hilite the menu we're interested in --- var obj = document.getElementById(menu); obj.style.color = "#000000"; obj.style.backgroundColor = "#f8f400"; } Prior to hiliting the menu I un-hilite all the menus (since we may be switching from another). I think this is where the problem is. Maybe I need to redefine the rollover "hover" attribute for all elements during the un-hilite loop? Does anyone know how to set a HOVER: attribute using JavaScript? Thanks! Hi! Let's say I have this Code: <form id="some_form" ...> <div> <label> Some text <input .... /> </label> <label> Some text 2 <input .... /> </label> <input type="submit ... /> </div> </form> In CSS I have this: Code: #some_form label {margin-button:10px}
This does work in NO browsers! Very strange... If one replaces the label with a div, everything works fine again. I really want to use the labels... How would you go about creating a navbar like the one Red cross uses on the left side for generic website mapping? Red Cross Example Is this pure css with dual images? Or is this done with some effect with other forms of CSS (or even DHTML?) on my site I have a list with the UL Class of threads. I am not good with CSS at all I have this Code:
#threads {
padding:0;
margin:0;
}
#threads li {
list-style:none;
border-bottom:1px dotted #ccc;
display:block;
padding:2px 0px 2px 13px;
background:url(images/sub.png) no-repeat 0 0px;
}
not doing what I want, my site is mypricesavings(dot)com you can see the list on the homepage under Recent Activity, I'd like to make it so that the avatars line up on top of each other and a line between each one like the featured section located on this site, however, without the scrolling. http://demo.colorlabsproject.com/?theme=arthemia-premium thank you for attempting I was reading a tutorial were they always style both <tr> & <td> with the same thing... Is this needed? Or do you just need to style <tr>? Code:
table.navigation tbody tr.odd {
background: #252525;
color: #fff;
}
table.navigation tbody tr.odd td {
background: #252525;
color: #fff;
}
I did a web page for a company and it looks fine in ie7 where I tested it. The problem is when viewed in IE6 its like it ignores the sizes I put in. The box appears too big in IE6 and is the propr size in IE7. Is there any way to fix it so it would look the same in IE6 as IE7? Hello, In the css below, why I can't set it on the same time? Code:
background: #FFF url(../images/main_bottom.gif) no-repeat bottom ;
background: #FFF url(../images/main_top.gif) no-repeat top ;
