CSS - Make Images Float Over Table Structure
Hi guys
I'm having a little problem with a <table> based website Please check the following image Each circle in the image attached is a separate image file, and I must make each image to be inside design. My problem is that the images doesn't fit in the <td> area, so well... Is there a way I can make the images float over the table ? I mean, a decent way to do this without having to convert entire design form <tables> to <divs> (PS: I'm still learning tableless designs) Thanks a lot in advance Similar TutorialsI am trying to create a table where I could toggle visibility of certain rows by style="display: block" and style="display: none" It works well in Internet Explorer. In Firefox the following table structure displays rows "First Name" and "Last Name" on left side. Why? I would like it positioned exactly above "State" row, like it is in IE. How do I do it? Code: <table width="100%"> <tr align="left" id="f_name_holder" style="display: block"><td width="30%" align="right">First Name:</td><td>Mike</td></tr> <tr align="left" id="l_name_holder" style="display: block"><td width="30%" align="right">Last Name:</td><td>Rourke</td></tr> <tr align="left"><td width="30%" align="right">State:</td><td>Alabama</td></tr> <tr><td width="30%"></td><td colspan="1"><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" /></td></tr> </table> Thank you. Hi, I'm building a table -like structure with divs and spans. When the columns have long text, the text overflows a bit funnily, so that the text in right column continues from left column. I have example at: http://www.viewinteractive.fi/tests/div.htm The page was validated before I put the code there within the textarea. The important part is he Code:
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
div.r1 {
background-color: #ccc;
width: 400px;
}
div.r2 {
background-color: #eee;
width: 400px;
}
span.s1 {
color: #700;
width: 150px;
border-right: 2px solid black;
float: left;
}
span.s2 {
color: #070;
}
div.sep {clear: both; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="r1">
<span class="s1"> Sometimes this stuff get's quite long. </span>
<span class="s2"> And it is not a problem, if both columns are long.</span>
</div>
<div class="sep"></div>
<div class="r2">
<span class="s1"> Now if... </span>
<span class="s2"> ... only right column is long, the page looks a bit funky. </span>
</div>
<div class="sep"></div>
<div class="r1">
<span class="s1"> If left is long, it looks ok in IE, but not Firefox. </span>
<span class="s2"> And right is short.</span>
</div>
</body></html>
I'd rather do this with tables, but that is not an option atm. Any helps? t.j Hi I've got 4 divs that are of the exact same size. I need them to all occupy the same real estate on a page. three of them will always be hidden and only one is visible at a time, this is controled by javascript. My question is what kind of positioning tricks do I have to do in order to make these 4 identical sized divs occupy the same space. I tried relative positioning like this div1{ position:relative; top:0; left:0; height:200px;} div2{ position:relative; top:-200; left:0;height:200px;} div3{ position:relative; top:-400; left:0;height:200px;} div4{ position:relative; top:-600; left:0;height:200px;} This only moved the contents of each div up to the desired location, however, it did not move the actual div itself, so I'm left with the reserved 600px high worth of empty space Please help Well, I'm trying to make a comments-page for a certain thing, and I can't get the image to stop going over the bottom of the div, without using the min-height property. Can someone help?

My CSS practice site (http://stallinswebdesign.com/vs/index.php) is coming along - no tables! - thanks to those of you who have helped along the way. I've used the float property to construct a 3-column site. Two short questions include: 1. I want to display a small image at the top of my middle column. When I drag from either side to make the browser window smaller, IE forces the image and everything below it to the bottom of the page. FF and Opera simply slide the side-column content under the image, which I much prefer. Is there a way to tell the image to stay at the top so that IE can't push it to the page bottom? 2. If you look, you will see that my site is designed with a narrow column on either side of the main wider column. It would look really great if I could occasionally split that center column into two equal-width columns. For example, if each line segment below represents a short paragraph or image, could I do the following when I've already designed the site with float and not the position property? _____ _______________ ______ _____ _______________ ______ _____ _______ _______ ______ _____ _______ _______ ______ _____ _______________ ______ _____ _______ _______ ______ etc. etc... Thank you all for your time. Hello guys, I know this is asked several time, but this case is different and can't find a working solution. I'm creating a navbar using ul lists with items as images, and want to center it. I'm using the blueprint css framework, and the list items contains images instead of text. Here's the HTML code : Code: <body> <div class="container"> <div id="header" class="span-24"> <div id="header_wrapper"> <ul> <li><img src="images/nav_03.png" /></li> <li class="selected"><a href="#"><img src="images/nav_04.png" /></a></li> <li><a href="#"><img src="images/nav_05.png" /></a></li> <li><a href="#"><img src="images/nav_06.png" /></a></li> <li><a href="#"><img src="images/nav_07.png" /></a></li> <li><img src="images/nav_08.png" /></li> </ul> </div> </div><!--End Header--> </div> </body> Here's the CSS code : Code:
#header{
padding-top:53px;
border:#F00 solid 1px
}
#header_wrapper ul {
text-align: center;
}
#header_wrapper ul li {
display: inline;
}
I tried many code configurations but can't get it to work! a live preview is available here I tried to use height:auto, and put it into the main container, then I put it in the div that is floated. Nothing works in firefox for me. Ive tried searching on google but I cant find anything that works. Basically, its not just an issue with floats, in general, what is the correct way to set divs, to auto expand to cover what is inside and that works in IE, Firefox and safari, is there a way to ? Thanks in advanced. When I am floating two containers or images my background color disappears. Why is that and what should I do instead? Here is what I am doing: <div class="contentWrapper"> <div class="content"> <div class="leftContent"> <img src="" alt="" /> </div> <!-- end leftContent --> <div class="rightContent"> <img src="" alt="" /> </div> <!-- end rightContent --> </div> <!-- end content --> </div> <!-- end contentWrapper --> Now the css: .contentWrapper { margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 100%; } .content { margin: 0 auto; padding: 0; width: 960px; background: #ccc; } .leftContent { margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 450px; float: left; } .leftContent img { margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 200px; height: 200px; border: #000 solid 1px; } .rightContent { margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 450px; float: right; } .rightContent img { margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 200px; height: 200px; border: #000 solid 1px; } Thanks! Hey guys, I'm now truly understanding why all my tech friends constantly talk about how much they hate IE. Anyways, im working on a site and am trying to add a corner element to one of my divs. It works perfect in firefox... but in IE it pushes the table below it and adds like a 2px wide sliver to the right of the img. Here is the table layout Code:
<div class='wrapp'>
<img src='Images/tr.gif' />
<table style='width:100%;'>
<tbody>
<tr class='time'>
<td colspan='6' style='text-align:left;'>" . date('F d Y',$key[5]) . ", " . date('g A T',$key[5]) . "</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
[/div]
Then here is the related CSS codes to make the image float to the right. Code:
.wrapp {
margin-bottom:8px;
width:354px;
text-align:center;
}
.wrapp img {
float:right;
display:inline;
}
table {
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
}
So once again what im trying to do is have the corner img show on the top right corner of the wrapp div. It works perfect in firefox but again it does not work in IE... and I have read about 20 articles on google that talk about these problems but I just can't figure the right combination out to make it work. Thanks in advance for any help! Here is the relevant HTML code: <table> <tr> <td> <div style="float:left;"> <div class="middle"><div class="r"><div class="l"> <a id="gridtitle" href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="reload()"></a> </div></div></div> <div style="width: 200px;"> <a href="#" onclick="addheader()"><img border="0" src="tab_new_header.png" alt="Delete this grid"/></a> <a href="#" onclick="addfooter()"><img border="0" srctab_new_footer.png" alt="Delete this grid"/></a> </div> </div> <div style="float:right;"> <a href="#" onclick="javascript:toggleLayer('newgrid');"><img border="0" src="button_add.png" alt="Add a grid"/></a> <a href="#" onclick="deleteGrid()"><img border="0" src="button_delete.png" alt="Delete this grid"/></a> </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <div id="gridbox3" class="gridbox" width="870px" height="600px" style="background-color:white;"></div> </td> </tr> </table> And the relevant CSS code [which just sets the background of the tab]: .l {background: url(../../datadir/client/images/billinggrid/name_sidebg1.png) 0 0 no-repeat; height: 43px;} .r {background: url(../../datadir/client/images/billinggrid/name_sidebg2.png) 100% 0 no-repeat; height: 43px;} .middle {background: url(../../datadir/client/images/billinggrid/name_sidebg.png); height: 43px;} This is the output (i can't post images?) http://i34 [.] tinypic [.] com/4hpqag [.] png The first problem I am having is that the div my gridtitle (CIBC) is in does not set its width automatically to the text width. Instaed, it spans the whole table ... Position-wise, I would like the tab with "CIBC" to be to the far left, the header and footer tabs to be right of "CIBC" but still floating left, and the + and x signs to be floating right, all on the same line. Help? Thanks in advance. Hi everyone, I have a problem I'm trying to overcome with displaying an image next to the text in a table cell. I've set the table cell to valign=middle and this achieves the layout I want (hopefully this demonstration will look right..) Code: PICTUREHERE PICTUREHERE PICTUREHERE The text goes here PICTUREHERE PICTUREHERE So the text and the picture are laid out along the middle of the cell. However as soon as the text gets too big for the cell (or the cell gets smaller) this happens: Code: PICTUREHERE PICTUREHERE PICTUREHERE The text goes here, but when it's longer PICTUREHERE PICTUREHERE the remainder comes here I knew this to be because the img is still an inline element in the cell. I tried to solve the problem by making the img float:left, but the following happens, even if the valign=middle property is set in the cell: Code: PICTUREHERE The text goes here, but when it's longer PICTUREHERE the remainder comes here PICTUREHERE PICTUREHERE PICTUREHERE Is it possible to achieve the top layout. If it is can someone help me please (it's probably staring me in the face) Thank you in advance Andy How to make images that are right aligned with the web page window? Anyone helps? Thanks in advance. subject isn't too good anyhow.. i have 4 cells __ __ |1 | |2 | --- --- __ __ |3| |4 | --- --- 2 and 4 are said to float right, such that 1 and 3 define the height of the page.. but.. when the contents of 2 go LONGER than the contents of 1, number 4 doesn't float right properly.. instead this happens __ __ |1 | |2 | --- | | --- | | |4| --- --- __ |3| --- do you see that? 4 tries to float right, but since it's called underneath 1, and 2 is extended, floating right relative to the page doesn't make it ACTUALLY float right any thoughts that will render this properly? (namely that cells 1 and 3 will inherit the height of 2 and 4 somehow?) Hi There - Am converting another design from tables, working with a CMS (Drupal) and an existing CSS / table combination that I didn't write and have no choice about. Think of the header as having three sections. The top section has logo on the left, search box on the right. Rounded corners. I'm cool with that section. Then there's a space. Created a div for the space. Love the space. Problems with the space in IE. Will go into it later. Then there's the next section. Rounded corners. Contains the entire page. On the left is a pulldown menu, about 1 cm from the top. On the right is a tabbed menu. This menu has flexible height. It needs to be right up against the bottom with the menu below it. Call this section the tabbed menu section. Third section. Immediately below that is a bar menu like the one Apple's got. Looks like a metal bar with divisions. Call this primary links. ---------- First, the space between. In IE, when you roll over the bar menu, the space disappears. Won't come back. Initially, in the second section, floated the pulldown menu left and the tabbed menu right. That worked fine, except that the tabbed menu had a width of 100% and pushed up the pulldown menu so the section was too wide. When I put it to 65%, all hell broke loose with the bar menu in the third section below it and bits of it snuck up into the second section. If I left it alone, and left the tabbed menu at 100%, when I checked over its container with firebug, it said that it was being affected by the primary links. I figured that out also because the background for that container was a really weird color that I finally found in the background of the navigation id and changed to white. Primary was overlapping it so I couldn't see it with firebug. So after fiddling with several clearing methods, I gave up and decided to try a table. Table worked fine, and the second section looks good except that there's a one pixel space between the tabbed menu and the bar menu. --------- It is my greatest wish right now to be able to float the pulldown to the left, the tabbed menu to the right and have the primary links stay below. I wish I could get the space to work and I wish for a clear understanding of it all so I can then figure out where to put the corners. Anyone who can enlighten me on this would have my undying gratitude. I've been working on this all day and the deadline's tomorrow. Code: <div id="top part" logo and searchbox </div> <div> that pesky space that disappears in IE when roll over primary links </div> <div id=navcontainer> dropdown and tabbed menu </div> <div id="navigation" class="menu> <!-- couldn't find the menu class in the css --> <div id="primary" class="clear-block"> contains barmenu - very fussy </div> </div> Here's the relevant CSS: Code:

Hello: I am building a ecommerce site, there are featured product on frontpage, I want to make a square border for each product, I have done top border and bottom border, but I don't know how to make the vertical lines on the right and left to make a nice square border with rounded corner the html structure is as followings table-----for the top border table-----to display product image and price, all that table-----for the bottom border I know by putting in css code for the middle table will be able to close this border could anyone tell me how? Hey folks, i'm trying to get the effect of the following image: http://www.dgemu.com/Images/first_steps.jpg Basically I got it all set up 'cept for Metroid's image, which is just driving me insane.. I used absolute positioning on the metroid image so I could use relative positioning on that table thingy and use z-index to put it there, but I'm having problems with the text - it goes behind the image ahhhh - what can I do? I was thinking perhaps adding relative positioning for the text too and make it above the image but what I want is to not touch the image - u know like u do float:right on the image - but I can't use float 'cuz then the z-indexing thing messes up.. hmm.. can anyone help me? hi I am shifting to web 2.0 therefore learning a lot of things that I used to do with tables. Now I have a task to make a form and also display text in parallel style e.g Name User Name ------- Rating stars Email User Email ------- Balance amount to accomplish this in tables we might make two cells to hold Name, EMail in one and Rating and Balance in the second then in each CELL further rows and cells for each entity e.g Name User Name how can we display this kinda info using pure CSS? I found a website online http://www.compare-voip.net/viatalk.php there towards the bottom you can see how the email and rating stats are displayed in two columns, this is done with tables though I want to do the same with CSS only thanks in advance i am trying to make the same effect like phpMyAdmin (when you put your mouse over a row of a table the entire table lights up, not just the links) whats the best way to do this, it looks like it seems the only way to do it is with javascript and css but all the the solutions ive tried ot search for doesnt do what i want it to do This is my first try at css and i have been at it about a week on and off. I have tried to use examples from here and the o'reilly CSS cookbook. I want to create a two column row of pictures with a caption. I selected DIV as the tool (my css is below). The container DIV looks great. I want the div.float, however, to start a second row when a third picture is added and to continue thereafter with successive two column rows. Unfortunately, each of my rows contain only one picture. here is my css style sheet. A demonstration of the problem can be seen at: http://www.yourline-online.com/demo05/?How_to_create_pages Code: div.float {
float: left;
BORDER-RIGHT: #808080 2px solid;
PADDING-RIGHT: 2px;
BORDER-TOP: #808080 2px solid;
PADDING-LEFT: 2px;
FONT-WEIGHT: lighter;
FONT-SIZE: medium;
PADDING-BOTTOM: 20px;
MARGIN: 16px 2%;
BORDER-LEFT: #808080 2px solid;
COLOR: #000000;
PADDING-TOP: 2px;
BORDER-BOTTOM: #808080 2px solid;
HEIGHT: 200px;
WIDTH: 150px;
BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff;
TEXT-DECORATION: none
}
div.float p {
text-align: center;
}
div.container {
border: 2px dashed #333;
background-color: #ffe;
}
div.spacer {
clear: both;
}
MY HTML is like this: Code: H1>How to create pages</H1> <P>The headings are used for splitting up the content file. An H1, H2 or H3 heading will dynamically split the document into new pages in the table of contents. An H4-heading is used as a heading within a page. See the following pages...<BR></P> <P></P> <DIV class=container> <DIV class=spacer></DIV> <DIV class=float><IMG height=100 alt="image 1" src="image1.gif" width=100> <P>caption 1</P></DIV> <DIV class=spacer></DIV> <DIV class=float><IMG height=100 alt="image 2" src="image2.gif" width=100> <P>caption 2</P></DIV> <DIV class=spacer> <DIV class=float><IMG height=100 alt="image 3" src="http://www.yourline-online.com/demo05/image3.gif" width=100> <P>caption 3</P></DIV> <DIV class=spacer></DIV></DIV></DIV> Can it be done with just CSS? I have a table of data where the text in the data cells wraps and fills the td cell with several lines of text. This is OK when the browser window is a "normal" size, but if someone is viewing with a widescreen monitor I would like the table to get wider and make the cell contents not wrap the text. Or if they are viewing with a small monitor I want it to wrap even more (table would get smaller). Can this be done with CSS, or do I need to do something with javascript? |
