CSS - Mulitple Styles Not Differentiating ...
I have one global.css file where all of the styles for the content of the site are located. I recently created a Matrix page where all of those styles need to be differentiated from the rest of the global.css.
So I set all the styles pertaining to the matrix with "div#matrix" first, i.e. div#matrix table, div#matrix ul, div#matrix span, etc. Then, I added a <div id="matrix"> .. content .. </div> around all of the matrix specific content. However, when I include the matrix.htm page into another page, the matrix takes on the global styles and not the matrix-specific styles. What did I do wrong? Thanks. Similar TutorialsHi all, I have about 10 different titles on my page. I would like to have 10 different colors for each of these titles. Can this be done without having to create classes for each one of them like: .title_one { color: #ffcc00; } .title_two { color: #cc00aa } and so on... Please advise. Thanks. I'd like to seperate blocks of text with a horazontal rule. I'd like it to be dashed. So, I've come up with this: Quote: hr { border: none 0; border-top: 1px dashed #000; width:98%; height: 1px } However, although this works well in IE, it Firefox there is too much space between the HR and the text block under it. In other words, the text above the HR comes right up to the line, but the text under the line, there is a larger gap. Any way to close the gap? Any ideas? Hello -- new to this forum. My questions concerns a problem I've run into many times. I'm trying to be CSS-moral and use style sheets as much as possible, or a least place properties in the Header. But here's what I run into. Many times I find it necessary to have different properties for the same tag within the Body. Currently, I use CSS to create the Menu items at the top of each web page, an Unordered List, using the "li" tags. Ok, but I just discovered that by using a new CSS statement, I can use custom bullets in the Body's li tag: list-style-image : url(bullet.gif) . Cool!!! So, I went about making a little dog bone .gif and used it for my bullet graphic halfway down the page. Voila! It worked. Voila! I suddenly have dog bones in my menu (which I don't want !), which also use the li tag. I only know two workarounds. 1) is to go back to the BAD practice of using the taboo in-line style="images/dogbone.gif" in each li within the body and NOT put the statement in the Header style section or 2) at least try to use CSS in the header by making a class like li.bone { list-style-image : bone} and then repeat class="bone" for each li in the body, which is only slightly shorter than just putting in the style="xxx" in the first place. So, how do we handle using different style properties for the same tag within the body? Perplexed, Mike Unfortunately I am not very experienced and I am trying to edit some coding that has been done for me. The code is as follows <div title="[[TITLE]]" style='background-image: url ([bg]); padding: 5%; width:90%; height:100%; padding-left: 6%; padding-right: 6%; background-size: 100% 100%; '> Now what happens is the words I type in this box are beautifully laid out because of the padding... The images placed in the box should stretch border to border - but obviously don't because of the padding.... Can anyone please tell me what I can change to give my text padding but images with no padding? Thanks so much Newbie question...I've always struggled with getting my links to show up right (hover styles, visited styles, etc.) In this case, I want my links to show up without an underline normally, but with an underline when hovered over. When they're visited, I don't want there to be any difference. I want them to show up normally. Right now I've got Code: .leftnavtext A:link {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
color: #666666;
text-decoration: none;
}
.leftnavtext A:hover {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
color: #666666;
text-decoration: underline;
}
.leftnavtext A:visited {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
color: #666666;
text-decoration: none;
}
.leftnavtext {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
color: #666666;
}
And when I hover over a visited link, it doesn't get underlined. Any idea why? Thanks. On the site I am starting, I am following the suckerfish style of using a ul/li menu. That works fine. A little position difference I have to figure out between IE and the real browsers but it does work. Problem I run into is when one of my pages includes a ul in the content. Using the css as is, that ul in content is displaying incorrectly. It should just go down the page but instead goes across the page. In the stylesheet, I tried making two li's, li.menu and li.info. That broke the menu but the content list worked. I tried adding .menu to various other components in the css but couldn't get both to work. I use php to include the code for the menu so I don't have to go to each page if I want to make a change. Could someone give me a hand on making two the two li's work from a style sheet so that both the menu and the content work on that page. Here are the pages. The web page: http://www.cacct.com/new/faq.php The stylesheet: http://www.cacct.com/new/css/sitestyle.css The menu code: http://www.cacct.com/new/php/menu.html This is the first page I built using other methods before changing to stylesheets: You can see what the content should look like. http://www.cacct.com/new/faq.html Thanks tk I understand how to write a print.css style sheet, but I am unclear on how to use it. I want to have a link on my page that says "Printer Friendly Version" that displays the printer friendly version and lets them hit the print button on the browser to print it. I think this is the most common way to print a web page, right? So I am displaying to the screen first and the printer if they hit the button. So how do I get the print.css formatting to display instead of the screen version? Obviously I want a single markup file for both purposes. Ok so what is the css substitute for the valign tag? Thanks! I have a page that I'm building as a prototype for a working medical exam GUI. I'm using Dreamweaver and it's pretty ugly. Is there anywhere I can download some styles that will bring this site to life? Maybe OSX or Vista-looking stuff? Basically, what i'm trying to work out is if the following is possible. Code:
.mainBodyColor {
background-color : #FFFFFF ;
color: #000000;
}
.mainBodyFont10pt {
font-size: 10pt;
<mainBodyColor>
}
.mainBodyFont14pt {
font-size: 14pt;
<mainBodyColor>
}
where <mainBodyColor> is a nested call to the style in some way.
etc etc etc
How do i go about nesting/including the mainBodyColor styling within the mainBodyFont10pt style? I know that the following doesn't work Code: <font class="mainBodyFont10pt" class="mainBodyColor "> Some text to go in here</font> What I'm trying to do is have in one place the colour and include it into many styles, so if i want to change the colour scheme of the site i just have to change it in one spot and i know that the whole site will change. Thanks in advance. is it possible to modify the look of a checkbox input field with CSS? (background, check color, border, etc) thanks, --Lone What is the difference between inline styles and id's? Are there places where you should use one and not the other? Sorry if this has already been answered but I couldn't find anything in a search. Hi for some reason some style are getting lost when ie is displaying the page i am developing, if somone could have a look that would be fantastic edited links because question has been answered Thanks everyone I need a way to apply a different style to IE6 and IE7/Firefox. The webpage renders as expected in IE7/Firefox but IE6 needs to be fixed. Here is a mockup of what I need to have: Code:
.featdesc
{
margin-left: 10px;
margin-top: 10px;
width: 400px;
text-align: justify;
if (ie6)
font-size: 11pt;
else
font-size: 10pt;
color: #505050;
}
Is there a way to accomplish this? This is the website I am working on: http://www.rookscommunications.com/projects/naturalne/index.html Everything is working fine, except the footer. When I view it in FireFox, I'm all set, but most likely most people will be using IE and that's where the problem is. Any thoughts on the bug? I've tied many different things. ALSO... to kill two birds with one stone. Could you peek at my javascript for random images...every now and then it selects a blank image and that's no good. Many Thanks I am hacking a clients css. Can someone tell me where I am going wrong. His site is a Smarty one. Here is the meta tags. The website is www.russiansweets.us and I am trying to format the links in the right nav menu underneath the search function that are presently red. I added class A.one:{} Class but it seems not to make a difference. I get the same color links before as after (red) Code:
<html>
<head>
link href="stylenew.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
{literal}
<style>
A
{
COLOR: red;
FONT-FAMILY: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica;
FONT-SIZE: 11px;
FONT-WEIGHT: bold;
TEXT-DECORATION: none
}
A:hover
{
COLOR: #993300;
FONT-SIZE: 11px;
FONT-WEIGHT: bold;
TEXT-DECORATION: none
}
// here is the part I added a.one
{
COLOR: #FFFFFF;
FONT-FAMILY: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica;
FONT-SIZE: 13px;
FONT-WEIGHT: bold;
TEXT-DECORATION: none
}
a.one:hoover
{
COLOR: #FFFFFF;
FONT-FAMILY: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica;
FONT-SIZE: 13px;
FONT-WEIGHT: bold;
TEXT-DECORATION: none
}
</style>
//end of what I added
{/literal}
Here is the html Code:

Hi, I am having trouble setting up different link styles in my site. My code is: Code:
.menu {
font-family: Helvetica;
font-size: 18px;
color: #FFFFFF;
}
a.menu:link {
color : #FFFFFF;
text-decoration : none;
}
a.menu:visited {
color : #FFFFFF;
text-decoration : none;
}
a.menu:hover {
color : #FFFFFF;
text-decoration : underline;
}
a:link {
color : #FFFFFF;
text-decoration : underline;
}
a:visited {
color : #FFFFFF;
text-decoration : underline;
}
a:hover {
color : #FFFFFF;
font-weight : bold;
text-decoration : underline;
}
From what I've read this should setup a default style for all links to follow, as well as define an alternate link style for anything in the menu class. So when I use the following code: <div class="menu"><I>01</I> <a href="">HOME</a></div> .. I would have thought the link would follow the style for .menu But it doesn't. It takes the style of the default links as well. How do I properly setup an alternate link style?? Hi, I remember reading that there is a css attribute for removing all browser-specific formatting from an element, for example forms, H tags and divs (which are pre-formatted differently in ie and firefox) but I can't recall what it was! Does anyone know how this is achieved as I find it very laborious when creating stylesheets to have to remember to reset all of these elements' formats. - before anyone says it, I know I could set up a generic, cross-browser-ready stylesheet for use with all my sites, and this is a system I already employ, I am simply concerned with saving bytesize and achieveing smaller stylesheets that are more easy to work with. I remember it was something like this: instead of: form{ margin:0px; padding:0px; } I'm sure you can do something like: form{ preformatting:none; } Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Or did I dream it?... cheers in advance I am looking for a way to implement CSS styles on DropDownList ListItems. In HTML it's pretty easy: PHP Code: <select> <option class="red" value= "Yes">Option 1</option> <option class="pink" value= "No">Option 2</option> </select> But in ASP.NET-VB I'm hitting a snag. PHP Code: <asp:dropdownlist id="ddlList" runat="server" Width="180px"> <asp:ListItem Value="Yes" class="red">Option1</asp:ListItem> <asp:ListItem Value="No" class="pink">Option2</asp:ListItem></asp:dropdownlist> That code doesn't work. When compiled, it totally deletes the "class" attribute. Any thoughts? Hi, I'm trying to create a PDF of my site, and I want it to look EXACTLY like the site. Right now the links are coming out blue (instead of the color I've defined in my CSS), and the fonts are not displaying according to what I've defined in the CSS. Someone once told me that I can overlay the pages with a transparent gif and that would preserve my original CSS definitions. But I can't get that to work. If I add a <div> to the html page, in an effort to overlay a transparent image over the entire page, and then I convert it to a PDF, then in the PDF the big transparent image just moves to the bottom, underneath the rest of the page. Thanks to anyone who can maybe help. Laura S. |
