CSS - Tag#id.class Does Not Work In Ie6?
Hi all
Another stupid annoyance relating Internet Explorer: it seems IE6 does not recognize the following CSS selector rule: tag#id.class e.g. div#content.active One has to split it into div#content .active Is that right? Do we just have to live with this? Greetings, Josh Similar TutorialsHi all, I am using <tr class="caption"> in order to control the properites of a line in a table. The problem is: this will not work. Nothing that is written in this CSS tag will work my CSS tag: Code: tr.caption { font-weight: bold; font-size: 14px; text-decoration: none; background-color: #000000; color: #FFFFFF; } any idea why?? I am greateful for any answer! Dekers Hey Guys... I have a piece of code that displays ok in Firefox (and I suppose IE) but not Safari. Here's the URL - http://www.pizza.bowlerhatmedia.com/spc/theusual.html In safari everything squishes left. In firefox they spread out like they are supposed to across the bottom. Here's the line of code in the html doc: Code: <div class="contentbox2_2"> <span style="padding-right:10px"></span>Petite: <span class="red">$11</span> <span style="padding-right: 160px;"></span> Medium: <span class="red">$14</span> <span style="padding-right: 170px;"></span> Large: <span class="red">$16</span> </div> and here's the supporting CSS Code: } .contentbox2_2, .contentbox3_2 { font-size: 15px; font-weight: normal; } .red { color: #ac3a24; } What can I do to position these across the bottom in safari and make everything else ok in the other browsers? thanks! Hi, Is there a good way to use css to make every element with a specified class name to have some hover attribute, for instance .class:hover would do something? For some reason it doesn't work for me unless I say div.class:hover or a.class:hover, etc. I have to specify an element. ok so I have a menu done via CSS and initially I set up a left border on it so it shows up like this: | menu 1 | menu 2 | menu 3 Now with the help of JQuery I am trying to get rid of the | on the menu 1.. Jquery is applying the class to the correct a selector but the border is not being removed? if I change the css to "border: 1px solid black" it applies the border to the whole of menu 1 but the left border still stays WHITE? the css class is: .removeBorder { border:0; } the menu CSS is: Code: ul.navigation-1 li a, ul.navigation-1 li a:link, ul.navigation-1 li a:visited { padding:4px 10px; display:block;text-decoration:none; border-left:1px solid #ffffff;color:#ffffff; width:100%; height:13px; } If i remove the border-left attribute from here, the border goes away.. and via Jquery I am targetting the A.. so what is the problem? Just a FYI: html code: Code: <div id="left-menu"> <ul class="navigation-1"> <li><a class="removeBorder" href="">Products</a><ul class="navigation-2"><li><a href="">A-Z List</a></li><li><a href=""> This should be easy but I can't get it. I have this in my CSS: a:link { color: #000000; font-weight: 400; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; text-decoration: underline; } a:visited { color: #000000; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-weight: 200; text-decoration: underline; } a:hover { color: #333333; font-weight: 400; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; text-decoration: none; } a:active { color: #000000; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: underline; } .pageTitle { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: #FFFF24; font-weight: bold; display: table-cell; padding: 5px 10px; } td.pageTitle a.pageTitleRef, td.pageTitle a.pageTitleRef:link, td.pageTitle a.pageTitleRef:visited, { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: #FFFF24; font-weight: bold; } td.pageTitle a.pageTitleRef:hover, td.pageTitle a.pageTitleRef:active, { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: #FFFF24; font-weight: bold; } and this in the HTML: <tr><td class="pageTitle"><a href="about.html" class="pageTitleRef">About Us</a> :: Experience & Past Projects</td></tr> It looks fine in IE, but in Firefox it looks like the "a" declaration is over-riding the "a.pageTitleRef" declaration. So the "About Us" looks like an "a" tag while the "Experience & Past Projects" looks as it should (like a page title in yellow). Any help would be greatly appreciated! Laura S. hey, I got a table, every <td> in the table got the css class .regular. (<td class='regular'>). When the user moves their mouse over a row, that row should change color. This works with the following code: <tr onmouseover='this.className=\"hoverRow\"'> However, this only works if the td's in that row have no class set yet. And since all td's in my table have a class set allready, i cant use this. How can i overwrite the class of the td's by the class for the whole row? thanks in advance Using the following example: Code: <!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"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Test</title> <style type="text/css"> a { display: block; } a.one.on, a:hover.one, a:hover.one.on { color: red; } a.two.on, a:hover.two, a:hover.two.on { color: orange; } a.three.on, a:hover.three, a:hover.three.on { color: green; } </style> </head> <body> <a href="#" class="one">one</a> <a href="#" class="two">two</a> <a href="#" class="three">three</a> <p> </p> <a href="#" class="one on">one</a> <a href="#" class="two on">two</a> <a href="#" class="three on">three</a> </body> </html> Notice how, in IE6 (works fine in FF), when the secondary style named 'on' is added, all 3 links in the 2nd set display the properties of the style: Code: a.three.on, a:hover.three, a:hover.three.on { color: green; } (since it is last in the list) rather than the style specified by their respective numbers (i.e. 'one', 'two' or 'three'). Is there a way to overcome this in IE. I've read several forums and know that the technique I'm trying to achieve is possible, however I can't seem to get it to work. Basically I'm trying to shift the background positions of both the list item I'm hovering over and the next list item. I'm sure its just a syntax error and not a logic error, anyways the code is below - any help would be greatly appreciated! Code: HTML Code <div class="menu"> <ul> <li><a href="#" class="search"></a></li> <li><a href="#" class="battery"></a></li> <li><a href="#" class="cart"></a></li> <li><a href="#" class="contact"></a></li> </ul> </div> CSS .search, .contact, .cart, .battery { width:100px; height:30px; margin-left:-1px; display:block; } .search { background-image:url(Images/search.png); } .contact { background-image:url(Images/contact.png); } .cart { background-image:url(Images/cart.png); } .battery { background-image:url(Images/battery.png); } ul li a.search:hover { background-position:0px 60px; } ul li a.search:hover ul li a[class=battery] { background-position:0px 60px; } Sorry for the lousy title, can't come up with better wording.... What I'm trying to say is can someone give me an example code of a css syntax that accept one css classname and add a few more properties to it under a different class name. Sort of like merging two classname into one. Thanks... I'm going mad with this, I tested the CSS a:hover function over FF 1.0.7 and IE6, and the style file is simple: PHP Code: h3 { margin:10px; color:#636500; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-style: normal; } p { margin:10px; color:#636500; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-style: normal; } a { text-decoration: none; } a:hover { color:#636500; } a:visited { color:#cecf9c; } a:link { color:#cecf9c; } searched through the forum but seems nobody has got this problem... I just want the link to change color, I imported the css file to my html and it worked for the first time. I clicked on the link and then use brower's "Back" button to test it again, but the hover feature is not working anymore. I think it may be affected by the a:visited style, but how do I make a:hover work all the time? Thanks for helping. When defining css in a webpage, it can be done using either a class or id. My understanding is that css uses . notation with classes and # notation with id's, regardless of whether the actual css is in the webpage itself of linked externally. Please correct me in error. My css uses classes and external . notation. When I use id's only and # notation exernally, I lose all my styling. Its only when I use the # notation internally that the styling works. In order to use external css I need to declare both a class and id and dot notation. Internally only an id. Is this correct behaviour? I am new to CSS and confused about when to use id # and when to use class . Some enlightenment on the benefits/purpose of each would be helpful. I have read several tutorials - but the same pretty much the same to me so I must be missing something Thanks! The book i am reading does not clear this up. When would you use class vs id to put elements in different catagories? why not use all id? It seems to make more sense.. ie. make all headers id="header" and divs also class. thank you in advance In CSS, which would be more appropriate (or I suppose semantically correct) to use, p.text or .text p ? P representing the <p> tag, and "text" representing the class "text". Any info or links to pages with info on this matter would be greatly appreciated! So I want to create a really simple css file that uses a lot of the same styles. For example I may create a box that takes up two fifths of the page, and is floated left or right, similarly I may have a box that takes up three fifths, or four fifths etc. The main thing here is that I'm thinking the specifics will be placed inside an ID like so: Code: #twoFifths {width:275px; padding: 0px 12px 0px 50px;} #threeFifths {width:375px; padding: 0px 50px 0px 12px;} And then to handle the float I'd use a class like so: Code: .floatRight{float:right;} .floatLeft{float:left;} Is this considered good practice? Obviously as I generate layouts I may want to float either right or left so having an ID for every single thing I may want to use would be a little overwhelming. The problem with this of course is that I can't call an ID twice in a page, and I can't have more than one class... so for example: Code: <div id="templateBlueBox" class="floatRight"> <h2>Six free lessons</h2> <p>These free Lessons are great to read online or print out and carry with you.</p> </div> <div id="templateGreenBox" class="floatRight"> <h2>New Features</h2> <p>Some fun, helpful study tools to help you get more out of every Lesson. Check them out!</p> </div> <div id="templateOrangeBox" class="floatRight"> <h2>Sign up for email updates</h2> <p>So we can let you know when you can subscribe to get it every week.</p> </div> <div id="templatePinkBox" class="floatleft"> <h2>Send us feedback</h2> <p>Is it the coolest thing ever (or is it just okay)? Tell us what you think!</p> </div> <div id="templateBlueBox" class="floatLeft"> <h2>Submit photos</h2> <p> You can be part it..</p> </div> So as you can see I'm having to repeat the id templateBlueBox. Is there a better approach for accomplishing this? I'm using ASP.NET 2.0 for my site. I already have a CSS that is working for the site; however, because an ASP.NET lable requires CSS Class, how do I convert my current CSS to a CSS Class? I know that a CSS class start with a period then a unique name. The problem is how do I implement the li, ul, a, and so on. Here is what I have that I want to convert to a CSS Class. #nav { padding: 0; clear: both; } body.main #nav, body.blogger #nav { float:right; width: 220px; \width: 250px; w\idth: 220px; margin: 10px 10px 0 0; padding: 0; } body.second #nav { float:left; width: 200px; \width: 210px; w\idth: 200px; padding:0 0 20px; margin: 0; } body.second #nav img { padding-bottom: 10px; } #nav a { color: #006; } body.second #nav ul { list-style: none; padding: 0 0 0 5px; margin: 0; } body.second #nav ul li { margin: 0 0 7px 0; font-size: 11px; } body.second #nav ul li ul li { margin: 0 0 5px 15px; } .skip { display:none; } /* end #nav */ #content p, #nav p { padding: 0; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 10px; line-height: 140%; } #content li, #content ol { margin-top: 0; line-height: 140%; } code, pre { font-family:"Courier New", Courier, mono, monospace; } /* definition lists, all that and a bag of chips! */ #content dl { margin:0px; padding:0; } #content dt { font-weight: bold; } #content dd { margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0; padding: 0 5px 0 0; } /* end definition list*/ Any help is appreciated. Which is better to use id (#) in CSS or to use class (.) ?? does it affect website rank? Problem solved. Hi There, I am working with an online educational system and working to style it accordingly. The system has "modules" that contain information of various types in their own distinct boxes. I would like to target each heading and style it individually ie different colours etc. I know this is probably a very basic problem and I'm relatively new to the process, but any help would be much appreciated. Here is the html generated by the system for one of the boxes "module:_148_1" ...............Start HTML Snippet <div class="portlet clearfix " id="module:_148_1"> <!-- extid:148: --> <h2 class=" "> <span class="moduleTitle" >What's happening at Ivanhoe</span> </h2> <div class="edit_controls"> </div> <div class="collapsible" style="overflow: auto;"> ............................End HTML Snippet My Current generalised styling on all boxes is achieved via the following css #moduleTitle, .portlet h2 { color: #fff; padding: 4px 52px 5px 6px; background: #13770a; background-image:url(images/headings_details.png); background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:right top; margin: 0; font-size:110%; font-weight:bold; position:relative; vertical-align:middle; overflow:visible; } As an example, if I wanted to target this particular module with ID module:_148_1 and set the background colour to #a0012e how would I best achieve this? Many thanks Chris Hi .. Im still new to all of this (Web and CSS in general) but would like to know if the following is a possiblity... assuming the CSS Below ... div#item{ width: 200px; height:100px; } div#item_image{ width:50px; height:100px; background-image:url(blahblah); } div#item_text{ width: 140px; height:100px; (...other properties) } then when I create an instance of this i use the following HTML <div id = "item"> <div id = "item_image> </div> <div id = "item_text> </div> </div> I know its maybe not the best way to do it .. but im trying to illustrate a point ... each time I create an "item" I am required to redeclare or redefine the child divs ... is there any way I can "embed" (for lack of a better word !) the children so that everytime I create an "item" it automatically creates the "item_image" and "item_text" so basically .. my HTML will just be <div id = "item"></div> and nothing else ?? Thanks for any guidance ... |
