CSS - Can't Fix Ie 6 Problem With Layout
Similar TutorialsHi, Since I'm a newcommer here, I'm not allowed to post proper URLs, so I'm hoping someone will have a look at the css problem in the following two images: (remove the spaces in the links) h t t p : // farm4.static.flickr.com/3192/2929163063_5b1e1d9988.jpg?v=0 and h t t p : // farm4.static.flickr.com/3188/2930025002_a7a4ed4fbe.jpg?v=0 The overlapping error in the second image occurs only in IE 8 with compatibility view turned on. The address is positioned properly in all other browsers. In the style sheet a div tag positions the address : #address {clear:both;position:relative; font-size:smaller; top: 40px; left: 0px; width: 145px; height: 80px; } I've used <!--[if lte IE 6]> <link rel="stylesheet" media="all" type="text/css" href="css/menu_ie.css" /> <![endif]--> In the page the address is written as: <div id="address"> <div align="right">The Company Name Inc.<br> 1234 Glenn View Road<br> Hilldale, OW 12345<br> 123-456-7890</div></div> ...and in menu_ie.css given the address tag top:90px or margin-top:90px instead of 40px but this does not have any effect. A few other points: The page layout is not pure css but a combo of a table + css. The menu is in an include file placed in a table column as is the address. I want to know a fix that will position the address correctly about 40px below the menu. Thanks http://www.research.buffalo.edu/newsite/ If I go to the above page in Firefox the page always loads fine. However, if I go to it in IE 6 the right side div half the time loads incorrectly and is not positioned to the right. If i hit refresh then the page looks correct. This error happens the most when I'm coming from another page and click the home button to get back to the above link. I've also noticed this happening on http://www.research.buffalo.edu/newsite/proposal_library.cfm Both pages validate correctly. Is there something I'm missing? Some kind of hack to make it work in IE? I'm trying to create a fairly easy layout, making use of DIVs. The following structure is what I'm trying to accomplish: www.dvolve[PLEASE REMOVE].org/tst.jpg And here's what I currently have: www.dvolve[PLEASE REMOVE].org/tst.htm However, I'm not really convinced that this is the right solution. I am unable to scroll in the content div (IE6) for one, which is quite a problem. I'm hoping to make this look the same for most browsers. Does anyone have a better layout that achieves this or any pointers on what I'm doing wrong? Hello, I'm having issues with a new layout in IE 6. The HTML is as follows: Code: <div id="gsContainer"> <div id="gsLeftBorder"></div> <div id="gsRightBorder"></div> <div id="gsContent"> <div id="gsHeader">Heading</div> <div id="gsBox"> Some content </div> </div> </div> The CSS is as follows: Code: #gsContainer { position: relative; width: 795px; height: 185px; margin: 0 0 15px 0; padding: 0px; } #gsLeftBorder { float: left; position: relative; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; width: 4px; background-image: url(/images/Left.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; height:185px; } #gsRightBorder { position: relative; float: right; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; width: 4px; background-image: url(/images/GreenRight.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; height:185px; } #gsContent { position: relative; height: 185px; margin-left: 4px; margin-right: 4px; width:779px; padding: 0px; } #gsHeader { position: relative; height: 25px; margin: 0px; padding: 6px 0 0 10px; width:769x; color: #fff; font-size: 14px; font-family: arial; font-weight: bold; background-image: url(/images/Header.gif); background-repeat: repeat-x; } #gsBox { position: relative; height: 129px; margin: 0px; padding: 25px 5px 0px 31px; width:743px; color: #000; font-size: 11px; font-family: verdana; background-image: url(/images/Back.gif); background-repeat: repeat-x; } The display looks fine when I test in IE 7, FF2, and Safari, with the content appearing with a clean "header" on top, and some inner content with borders on the left & right side. However, when viewing in IE6, the inner content (div "gsContent") is somehow too wide, and is pushed to the live after the "gsContainer" div. When I play with the widths, if I shave 8px of width off gsContent and its inner divs, then the alignment is fixed, but there is spacing between gsLeftBorder & gsContent as well as gsContent & gsRightBorder Any ideas how I can resolve this? Hi, I'm having trouble creating a top bar and below this 3 column layout. IE 5.5 takes note of the widths specified, firefox does not. In fact firefox seems to treat the center and right column divs as though have been asked to display: block as soon as content is placed within the left column, even overlapping into the header div above it when padding or a margin is added. I'm wondering if I am using the DTD tag? Or is it the fact that I am css-ing the layout wrongly?

The problem is that when I (or another user) chooses "Text Size - Largest" the third column disappears below the others. Is there any way to prevent this and make sure that column starts at the top, with the others? Should I be using "position: absolute" or other more specific code, in order to make the position of the columns in the layout more stable? Thanks. Hi, I'm really stuck with a template i'm making. it looks kind of o.k. in firefox Win XP, but it's screwed up in IE6 on Win XP. tried to many ways, but can't seem to solve it. template: http://www.thestateofdesign.com/template.php CSS: http://www.thestateofdesign.com/css/the_state_css.css I want the content [left & right content] to be situated under the headers, of course the left column on the left, and the right column next to the left, with a footer underneath it. in IE the footer and rightcolum move to the right. Tried to use positioning absolute, but that screws up the footer.

Ok, I'm using CSS to layout my page, and I have a big logo at the top that's like 750x150 or something close to that. Looks fine in 800x600 but in the higher resolutions, you guessed it, tonnes of white space. I do not want to center it like people suggest, I want the header to touch both ends of the page, no matter what the resolution. I've used basic CSS styles, like #top {position: absolute; top:0px; left:0px;} for the logo. How would I change that so it will stretch for bigger resolutions??

Thanks IE 7 has caused a problem with the layout on our website. The website worked fine with IE 6. http://www.membersequity.com/mcard/ Can anyone help determine what the problem is? Thanks. Hi I'm trying to layout some information on a page that would previously have been designed using a table structu Code: <table> <tr> <td>Item 1 <br /> Item 2 <br /> Item 3</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Item 1 <br /> Item 2 <br /> Item 3</td> </tr> </table> But now have tried to redesign the layout using the following CSS: Code: #boxProdDisplay { width:500px; padding:0; margin:0; } #boxProdDisplay p { width:228px; border:1px solid #CCCCCC; color:#333333; background-color:#F5F5F5; padding:5px 5px; } #boxProdDisplay p.p1 { float:left; clear:left; width:228px; border:1px solid #CCCCCC; color:#333333; background-color:#F5F5F5; padding:5px 5px; } #boxProdDisplay p.p2 { float:left; clear:left; width:228px; border:1px solid #CCCCCC; color:#333333; background-color:#F5F5F5; padding:5px 5px; } #boxProdDisplay p.p3 { float:right; clear:right; width:228px; border:1px solid #CCCCCC; color:#333333; background-color:#F5F5F5; padding:5px 5px; } #boxProdDisplay p.p4 { float:right; clear:right; width:228px; border:1px solid #CCCCCC; color:#333333; background-color:#F5F5F5; padding:5px 5px; } The problem is that it doesn't quite display correctly. The <P> elements are floated correctly, but they only appear after the last <P> tag which has been aligned left. With a table structure I could use valign to send everything to the top of the page. What can I do here? Many Thanks. Please have a look in the attached example: the layout works fine (after some testing) in Mozilla. My problem is that the navigation breaks after the fourth button in IE. If i give a width to the list than the whole navigation breaks after the content at the left side. Anyone with some advice? My first post here and it promises to be a doozie! I am new to CSS and I have been trying to use it in lieu of tables. So far I have learned a great deal and made great progress, but I'm not here to tell you of my success of course. I am here to tell you my problems! Basically I am trying to create a fluid background. It consists of a 3x3 arrangement of divs. Like this: ABC DEF GHI They are arranged via float:left, and A,D,G all have clear:left. A,C,G,I are the rounded corners with known widths and height, so they are static. All the others (B,D,E,F,H) are fluid. The content is in E and should be the governing factor for the widths and heights of the fluid elements but I cannot seem to figure out how to make, for example, the heights of D and F match the height of E. I am reluctant to post all my code in here because it seems like a lot, but if it would help clarify my problem then I will. I hope my question is clear. I really need help but I don't know how to put it simply. Thanks! Hello there. I Have a small problem i think. I have an layout which i want to have heights in %. This seems to be difficult. In the attachement i have an example of how it is ment to look. The header should be 135px height. The 2 leftside blocks should be 50% of the page which is left, and not the whole page (viewport). I Don't have an good example, becouse i can't figure it out :S. If someone has an link to somekind of div-builder or fluid design builder etc.. that would be nice . Thx in advanced. Ok, this is my first time creating a layout using div tags and I'm having trouble setting the footer to stay at the bottom. example From the example above, I want to footer to sit below the menu. I can't seem to get this to work. Here's my code. Code: body { margin:0px; padding:0px; font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; background-color:white; } #header { height:50px; background-color:#0755AB; text-align: center; } #content { width:100%; height:200px; margin:0px 0px 0px 150px; background-color:#008080; text-align: center; } #menu { position:absolute; top:50px; left:0px; width:150px; height:300px; background-color:#FF9F9F; text-align: center; } #footer { height:30px; background-color:gray; text-align: center; position: relative; } Hi. I have a "small" problem. I am using NiftyCorners (http://www.html.it/articoli/nifty/index.html) and whenever the corner is added to a nav bar at the top of my page, the link in the nav moves down a bit, making it lower than the rest. I have tried playing with padding, margin, etc but can't seem to get the link position to stay put. I am trying to get my nav bar to work like the one in the below link: http://boardreader.com/pop/films/-/-/90.html?o=90 I am guessing it has to do with the fact that the containing div is blocking it? Any ideas how to prevent the shift in the link position? Code below and Image of problem attached.... Thanks!
