CSS - Css Float Issue With Ie6
Hi Guys,
Ive got a serious'ish error on a site im responsible for and with it being the period between christmas and new years I cant find anyone to help me. So im coming asking for help with an IE6 error which is occuring on http://social.eyeforpharma.com/ It appears fine in every browser apart from IE6. IE7, FF, Safari etc work fine. With no decent debug tools for IE6 available im stuck. Help REALLY appreciated. Kevin. Edit - The error gets worse when you go to view an article. Similar Tutorialsheys all, im having an issue with text that is variable length. i want to float something in the bottom right corner of some text. that something which is floated should have a width of 100px and height of 100px. so for example text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text FLOATED HERE text text text text text text text text text FLOATED HERE text text text text text text text text text FLOATED HERE now the sample text above can be 1 line, or 100 lines. anyone have any ideas? i've been hammering away at this too long Thanks. Hello i would like to know if there is any hacks or tips to resolve problem in IE6's rendering of Floated Boxes? It seems IE6 add extra padding or margin to some floated element, specially those near the borders of container... How do i get around this? hello. i am making a small, rough bar graph on the left side of my page. when i try it, the bar ends up going to a new line. what i'd like to do is have a colored div fill up 80% or 100% of the rest of the space to the right of the key. here is the code: Code:
<div class="bar_graph">
<div class="key">signed: 8,000</div>
<div class="bar signed" style="width: 80%"> </div>
</div>
...
.signatures {
margin-top: 20px;
}
.signatures .bar_graph {
overflow: auto;
margin-top: 2px;
}
.signatures .key {
float: left;
font-size: 8px;
text-align: right;
width: 40px;
}
.signatures .bar {
float: left;
height: 17px;
}
.signatures .signed {
background: #f3b400;
}
.signatures .goal {
width: 100%;
background: #e58728;
}
Hatchetradio.com/radio/ if you check this page it's fine in firefox if you check this page in I.E. the tab on the left hand side actually sits on top of the layout. I'm trying to get it to fit snug. I'm not sure why this is happening. hatchetradio.com/radio/wp-content/themes/reborn/style.css that's the css im using I have a section of 3 divs, 1 floated to the left, one to the right and one in the middle. IE 7 & Firefox are fine however in IE 6 it seems to display the left and right columns as a block pushing the middle column down to the bottom. see screenshot, the image is the middle div while the white side parts are the left and right columns. My code is as follows: CSS Code: Original - CSS Code #headerLeft { float: left; background-image: url('/media/images/040708_05.jpg'); background-repeat: no-repeat; width: 20px; height: 323px; } #headerRight { float: right; background-image: url('/media/images/040708_07.jpg'); background-repeat: no-repeat; width: 20px; height: 323px; } #flashMovie { background-color: #FFFFFF; margin-left: 20px; margin-right: 20px; width: 730px; }
Having one last problem before the site goes beta live... I have rounded divs, and inside is a floated left menu element. If something in the menu expands the round corners pop out of place rather then shift down. Im not sure what to chage. The site is: adventurevalley.ca/jason/programs/prgSwim.cfm If you mouse over the birthday parties link you will see what I mean (IE7 issue). Thanks a mill! Heys, I have the following code: <html> <head></head> <body> <div style="width: 100px; height: 100px; border: 1px solid red;"> <div style="width: 200px; border: 1px solid green; float: left;">-</div> </div> </body> </html> In FF and IE7 it works the way I'm desiring; specifically, the child div (width: 200px is contained inside a box, however it breaks outside of it due to the width. ||||||||| ||||||||| |||||||||||| |||||||||||| ||||||||| ||||||||| That's how it should look; but I can't replicate it in IE6. Any ideas? Thanks Hey all, I am just starting to develop a new site for my web design company, though i'm doing it in mac os x env using camino, so to my horror, when i finally got around to checking it in IE, I discovered that everything was horribly wrong. All of the div's that were supposed to be floated left are now overlapping the right float. I've read a few articles which all suggest different things, i.e. putting 'display: inline' in all the float styles. That didn't work. I don't have the time to figure it all out though I'm sure it's a simpleish solution. I'd really appreciate the help. Pete This page works fine in Firefox, but in IE, the float makes the content move off the page to the left. I figured out that without a background-color applied to the .textBox style (which is the DIV that contains the text and image I am floating) it works. However, I really would like the .textBox to have a background color. Anybody knows what to do? Here is the page: http://www.jbbdesign.com/wip/index4.html many thanks, Julia Ok, I have been pulling my hair out trying to figure out a workaround. I then have been searching the web for answers, but can't get any of the solutions to work in this case. Here is a stripped down version of the code: CSS: Code: ul {
list-style: none;
}
li.leftform {
clear: left;
float: left;
text-align: right;
width: 121px;
padding-right: 10px;
font-size: 12px;
font-family: Tahoma;
color: #000000;
line-height: 40px;
}
li input {
width: 243px;
height: 18px;
line-height: 18px;
margin: 0;
margin-right: 3px;
}
li.middleform {
float: left;
width: 243px;
padding:8px 0;
padding-right: 10px;
line-height: 18px;
min-height: 24px;
}
li.rightform {
float: right;
width: 168px;
padding-top: 10px;
padding-right: 25px;
line-height: 11px;
}

For some reason the clear: left works on the first element, but an element after goes as if there was never a clear before it. The HTML is like this for a reason, I know you can't see it now because I stripped everything out of it. Any help on a quick fix (don't mind if it's dirty ) Thanks! Please look at this page - http://www.eagletransmission.net/testimonials.asp In IE7 I have the main navigation alignment as I want it to be. BUt in Firefox the links do not align correctly. For example please look at the link for Affiliates. In Firefox it is pushed to the right instead of centered where it should be. Thanks. In this header www.johnschureman.com I have an image, an h1 and a subtitle div. Code: <div id="header">
<img src="../images/jschu-crop150h.jpg">
<h1><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>" >:<?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a></h1>
<div id="subtitle">
<!-- Here's the tagline -->
<?php bloginfo('description'); ?>
</div>
</div>
I cannot figure out in my css how to make the subtitle appear below the h1. Code: #header {
margin:0;
padding:0;
height:170px;
padding: 0px;
margin-top: 3px;
/* padding-top:110px;
padding-bottom:10px;
padding-right:20px;
padding-left:5px;*/
border-bottom: 1px solid #bab1b1;
background: #404040;
}
#header img {
float:left;
display:inline;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 10px 10px;
border:none;
}
#header h1{
display: inline;
float:right;
padding:0px;
margin: 0px;
padding-top:100px;
margin-bottom:3px;
margin-right: 5px;
font-size: 2.4em;
letter-spacing:0.1em;
}
#subtitle {
text-align:right;
font-family:"Century Gothic", "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans Unicode", Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
margin-bottom:3px;
margin-right: 5px;
font-size: 0.9em;
text-transform:uppercase;

}
Hope this is enough info. I've been playing with clear, position, etc. Help? Thanks in advance. - Willi I seem to have an issue with the float parameter in Firefox. If you look at the following URL in IE, it should display fine, but in firefox the container doesn't expand to hold the div's within, as they're floated. I've seen other people use floats just fine in firefox, but it doesnt' seem to work for me.. http://www.arestaenterprise.com/enf/ Any help is appreciated Thanks! Hello my helpful comrades, I'm having some problems with the ol' Suckerfish in IE. It seems the second list is floating left, insead of appearing beneath the first list, and "clear:" won't fix it. I've been looking over the CSS all morning, but can't seem to locate the problem. The menus display perfectly in Fx. I have a feeling a lack of sleep is making me mildly stupid, but the slow progress thus far has driven me to seek help I've put the menu in a seperate .css file from the main layout to make it easier to read: CSS HTML Cheers! Ok so either I'm tired and not thinking straight or I'm going crazy... Never had this problem before... The top wrapper has a gap below it in IE6 so it's not flush with the middle wrapper... Any ideas... See my source code below... Thanks for the help.

The background image call works fine, you can test it if you enlarge the #Middle height values. http://www.wpforrealestate.com/prod...es/Design2/www/ I've had this problem before, but figured it out through the help here and some links on floats, but this time I'm just not getting it for some reason. Any ideas? Thanks. Close this, wrong forum. Sorry! Hey - I'm not too CSS savvy, more of a PHP expert, so I'm experiencing this problem with a dynamic list of message board topics. Inside of a table, I've got the following DIV to create each topic with rounded borders for the buttons. Code: <div id="topic">
<b class="rtop"><b class="r1"></b><b class="r2"></b><b class="r3"></b><b class="r4"></b></b>
<a href="?action=message_board&topic_id={ID}" class="green11">{name}</a>
<b class="rbottom"><b class="r4"></b><b class="r3"></b><b class="r2"></b><b class="r1"></b></b>
</div>
The CSS is... Code:
div#topic{ margin: 2 2px; background: #D8EEE7; float: left; font-weight:bold;}
b.rtop, b.rbottom{display:block;background: #FFF}
b.rtop b, b.rbottom b{display:block;height: 1px;
overflow: hidden; background: #D8EEE7}
b.r1{margin: 0 5px}
b.r2{margin: 0 3px}
b.r3{margin: 0 2px}
b.rtop b.r4, b.rbottom b.r4{margin: 0 1px;height: 2px}
Here's my problem...in Firefox/Safari/Camino, it does exactly what I want. Each button is dynamically sized perfectly, and they display (left floated) one after the other, but in IE, it displays them as a vertical (rather than horizontal) list. I'd imagine this has something to do with the FLOAT tag, but I have no idea how to solve the problem. Here's the link...I'm referring to the list of topics under "BOARD TOPICS": http://www.2ndfloor.org/message_board_updates/index.php?action=message_board Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Jeremy In a nutshell, I want the following page: http://kznf.com/test/example.html to display in IE7 how it does in FF3 and Safari 3.1 The only "solution" I've been able to come up with is to enforce a width on some wrapping div. The problem is that sometimes I want it to have a wider width, as seen in example2 http://kznf.com/test/example2.html Am I doing something wrong? Is there some ridiculous IE7 only solution out there somewhere? I've googled and searched forums and I'm about to give up and go back to table based layout! Someone help! Code:

I'm including some images within a UL. I've coded them in there to float. IE displays the list as I want but NN and Opera won't play along. In fact they both "get it wrong" in different ways. What am I doing wrong? (as you can see it is for a course and it is important to me to get it right not just good enough). Here's the address. The CSS coding is on the actual page for easy viewing. link |
