CSS - Height, Width Attributes Images Vs. Styles And Seo
I've been restyling a legacy web app. the old app had
height and width attributes for every image. So when you modernize you can create classes that chunk a whole bunch of stuff, one of which is height and width. In order for SEO analysis to like you do you have to keep the old fashioned height and width attributes on every single image tag? Is it OK to have both a style from a class AND height and width attributes? I assume if they conflict the local ones will win, even though strictly speaking they are not styles. Thanks, just curious. Similar TutorialsI'm pretty sure I know the answer to this unless there is a trick or hack....Can u set a background images height & width in a tag? I have a logo'd masthead that I need to reduce when the user wants to print the page. I know I can just create a print-specific image but, I thought I'd ask to see if there was a way to reduce the image thru .css??? thanks! Stephen Hello. I'm trying to figure out a way to define link states (link, active, hover, visited) using an inline style or in a manner other than specifying via an imported or embedded style sheet. The project I'm working on involves designing an HTML email (template) with links that have formatting specified. Some webmail providers (particulalrly gmail and hotmail) seem to strip the away all code from the BODY tag on up (I assume to avoid conflicts with their own formatting), making formatting a very creative endeavor. Anyhow, without specifying these attributes in the header, is there any other way of doing this? The best I can figure out is specifying a link color, but without allowing for changes on visited, active, or hovered links. I've been googling for hours, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks. P.S. I know the prevailing attitudes on plain text vs html formatted emails and how it ties into spam, etc. I assure you this isn't being done in the context of spam, but rather, an opt-in newsletter for a client interested in sending fully formatted newsletters. :-) Hi Guys, Consider the following box: PHP Code: <div style=border: 1mm black Solid; width: 148mm; height: 98mm;'> </div> 148mm + 1mm + 1mm = width of 150mm 98mm + 1mm + 1mm = width of 100mm Now why does neither firefox or ie manage to get it? Firefox is about 2mm out and ie is about 3mm out? Any ideas or is it some quirk? Charlie Hi, I have hit the "wall" in my knowledge of CSS while trying to implement a "flex-width-equal-height-sidebar-layout" style of layout as a skin/theme for a message board system and need some help. My trouble occurs when a direct link to the post is used (instead of following the menu navigation system) where the top menu information/links area (the area between the banner and the post) is chopped off... The relevant portion of the CSS seems to be the .col_wrap {margin-top: 10px; border: 0; overflow: hidden; float: left; width: 100%; position: relative; z-index: 10; clear: both;} portion of my CSS because if I take out the overflow:hidden declaration then the menu portion of the skin/theme/layout shows correctly but the sidebar the shows the part which should be hidden at the bottom and the footer completely vanishes from view! My apologies but this is the best I can do without having the ability to post pics or urls which could better explain what is wrong and frankly speaking I don't know how anyone here can help given my inability to show the problem but hopefully someone knows or has run into this problem before or can offer some resources that may be of assistance.... Hi, I have a series of divs, each of which contain some text and an image. The images are floated either left or write, so the text wraps around them. It works as intended in screen view, but when I try to print, the images lose their float in IE (the text no longer wraps around them). It works fine in FF. Any ideas? Thanks basically i want to span an absolute div 100% height and width to cover the whole browser window.. IE fails at this.. what are some methods used to get around this? Hi, I have a layout to build and I want to make it as accessibile as possible to the user. I therefore want to allow the user to be able to determine the site font sizes while also keeping the layout look as good as possible. The only way I have done this so far is by setting the width and height of other elements (div's mostly) using the em type. Is this ok? Or I am doing this totally wrong? Regards, Sim085 Hey all, I need an area of content, defined by a div element. I would like it to have a minimum width of 550px, and a minimum height of 500px. However occasionally not everything will fit inside the box. Occasionally the box will contain a picture or word or flash file that exceeds 550px wide. When this happens, I'd like the box to be able to stretch to become wide enough to fit the big word/picture. Likewise when there is too much text, or a picture that is too long, I'd like the box to become tall enough to contain everything. My first attempt was using min-width and min-height. The height worked great, but since divs are block elements, the width would always be 100% instead of 550px. So I then tried adding "display: inline-block;". This made the width work, but now the text didn't automatically go to the next line when it reached the right of the box; instead, the box just increased in width. So to sum it up, I need something like this to have a width and height of 550/500: <div id="test">This sentence is small</div> But this one to stretch to the size required to contain the long word: <div id="test">adsfasdfasdfadfadfasdfasdfasdfasdfadsfasdfasdfadsfasdfasdfasdfasdfad sfasdfasdfadsfasdfasdfadsfasdfasdfadsfasdfasdfasdf</div> Hi, I have a page where I want to display some preformatted code inside a bordered box that has a fixed width/height with automatic scrolling. I can do this with a DIV + several css styles. However, when I generate the same file with Perl/CGI, The width/height stops working (at least not on my browser, Mozilla 1.1). Here is the file that works: Code: <html> <head> <style> .textarealike{ overflow: auto; border: 2px solid #0000FF; color: #000000; height: 30; width: 350; font-family: "Courier New"; font-size: 10pt; padding: 5px; } </style> </head> <body> <div class="textarealike"><pre> Some stuff Some stuff Some stuff</pre></div> </body> </html> and here is code that doesn't: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <style> .textarealike{ overflow: auto; border: 2px solid #0000FF; color: #000000; height: 30; width: 350; font-family: "Courier New"; font-size: 10pt; padding: 5px; } </style> </head> <body> <div class="textarealike"><pre> Some stuff Some stuff Some stuff</pre></div> </body> </html> The only difference is the DOCTYPE header generated by the CGI script..... and I have no idea why this is: Can anyone help me out? Thanks, Frank Hey all, I'm playing with an idea to include a 100% width/height log_in iframe to be displayed only if $_SESSION[uid]==''; (user not logged in) utilizing the following in a remote style.css to "show" the home page behind the iframe via opacity of 10%, while the iframe blocks access to it untill user logs in. My problem is that width:100%; height:100%; doesn't work, while pixel width & height does in the following: Code: iframe { position:absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px; width:800px;/*works*/ height:800px;/*works*/ /*width:100%; doesn't work*/ /*height:100%; doesn't work*/ z-index: 100; filter:alpha(opacity=10); -moz-opacity:.10; opacity:.10; } I'm new to css web design and am attempting my first full layout. What I would like to do is have a hanging picture in the upper-righthand corner of the page that overlaps the header and content sections. All is well, until I specify a width or height on the content section. Although it looks fine in Firefox, IE either: a) moves the content section down or b) squishes the content to the side (if <!--<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>--> is in the html) Here's some much-simplified code to illustrate the problem: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css" /> <link href="images/style_test.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <title>Sandbox</title> </head> <style type="text/css"> #header { background-color: #cccccc; border: 1px solid #564b47; } #content { background-color: #c6dedf; border: 1px solid #564b47; width: 100%; height: 400px; } #hanging { float: right; background-color: #ccff99; border: 1px solid #564b47; margin: 20px; padding: 0; width: 300px; height: 300px; clear: right; } #footer { background-color: #cccccc; border: 1px solid #564b47; clear: both; } </style> <body> <div id="hanging"><code>#hanging {<br> float: right;<br> background-color: #ccff99;<br> border: 1px solid #564b47;<br> margin: 20px;<br> padding: 0;<br> width: 300px;<br> height: 300px;<br> clear: right;<br> }</code><p>This SHOULD overlap header & content.</p></div> <div id="header"><code>#header {<br> background-color: #cccccc;<br> border: 1px solid #564b47;<br> }</code></div> <div id="content"><code>#content {<br> background-color: #c6dedf;<br> border: 1px solid #564b47;<br> width: 100%; /* hanging doesn't like this */<br> height: 400px; /* or this in IE*/<br> }</code></div> <div id="footer"><code>#footer {<br> background-color: #cccccc;<br> border: 1px solid #564b47;<br> clear: both; }</code></div> </body> </html> Anyone know a work-around or how to fix this? Thanks! Hi there Has anyone encountered a bug in IE (6) of extra width, when applying css height property to a div? I set the width of div, via margin Code: div#footer { margin: 0px 9%; height: 40px; } When height is specified, the width of the footer is 1px bigger on either side, then other elements with same margin, but no height. This does not happen in other (gecko) browsers! Anyone know a solution, (tantek won't be precise enough with %) ?? The problem I have has arisen whilst trying to create a horizontal and a vertical navigation menu using <li> tags. It is best illustrated by the following example: Code: <div style="width:100%;height:50px;"> <ul> <li style="border:1px solid black;">Hello</li> <li>World</li> </ul> </div> <br /> <div style="width:100px;height:100%;"> <ul> <li style="border:1px solid black;">Hello</li> <li>World</li> </ul> </div> and the CSS Code: div { border:0; background-color:#888888; } ul { margin:0;padding:0; } ul li { float:left; list-style:none; background-color:#CCCCCC; height:50px; width:100px; } The <div> tags are set to 50px height and 100px width respectively. When an <li> element is placed within the div with the same height or width they display the way I intended. However once a 1px border is applied to the <li>'s then in IE the border is counted as part of the width or height. In Firefox the border will add 2px to the starting height and width giving the effect of width:102px or height:52px;. This is massively frustrating as I need each <li> to have the 1px border. It looks different in each browser (I have not tested it in netscape nor opera, but I suspect they will display the same as Firefox.) Can anyone provide a fix to get get round this please? Thank you in advance. Hi. What's em, pt, pc, px, ex, % when declaring width, height or position in CSS? It seems people use different measurement. What exactly are those? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. Hi to all, and thanks a million in advance for help. I have developed a simple online cms and everything is setup correctly but i am stuck at one place. I am unable to make width to 100% when b div is empty i mean a div = 50% width, b div = 50% width, how set it up that when a div is empty then b div goes to 100%width and when b div is empty then a div is 100% width. i hope got my question. because currently i have set in this way. wrapper div = 980px width, a div = 50% width, b div = 50% width, wrapper div end so when a div is empty then b div is still present and that area is empty it destroy the whole look. thanks arsslan Is there a way to expand the height and width of a DIV to the height and width of the document, not the browser window? When I set it too 100%, and scroll, the div remains the size of the original window. The DIV is for a background grey out screen, and I want it to encompass the height and width of the document and persist when scrolling. Explicitly setting height and width with pixels doesn't work, because that depends on the user's screen resolution. Any thoughts? Many thanks... Have a look at this code. Why is the background not showing up as the appropriate pixel sizes? PHP Code: <html> <head> <title>CSS Testing</title> <style type="text/css"> .test-height { width:200px; height:108px; background-color:yellow; } #test { width:200px; height:108px; background-color:red; } </style> </head> <body> <div class="test-height"><p>This should be 200px high and 108px wide.</p></div> <br /><a href="#" class="test-height">Click Me (This should be 200px high and 108px wide.)</a> <div id="test"><p>This should be 200px high and 108px wide.</p></div> <br /><a href="#" id="test">Click Me (This should be 200px high and 108px wide.)</a> </body> </html> Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks in advance. Regards, CH... I'm wondering what's the word is called for setting the image width and height in CSS Code: img.test { <<What's the keyword??>>: 10 px; } Thanks, FletchSOD Layout Page I know. It's not too great yet. But I've just started and it's still in the baby stages. whenever I add a width or height paramater to "navBar" the background image NEVER shows up, even with content! Why is that?

Is this because Friefox is ignoring the width and heigh commands in CSS? And is there any way to fix this? If so, how? I've got this working on Firefox Code: .menu_item { } .menu_item a:link{ width: 163px; height: 21px; padding-top: 4px; padding-left: 20px; background-image: url(menu_rollover_0.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; color: #6A7182; text-decoration: none; } .menu_item a:active{ width: 163px; height: 21px; padding-top: 4px; padding-left: 20px; background-image: url(menu_rollover_0.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; color: #6A7182; text-decoration: none; } .menu_item a:visited{ width: 163px; height: 21px; padding-top: 4px; padding-left: 20px; background-image: url(menu_rollover_0.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; color: #6A7182; text-decoration: none; } .menu_item a:hover{ width: 163px; height: 21px; padding-top: 4px; padding-left: 20px; background-image: url(menu_rollover_1.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; color: #ED1C2D; text-decoration: none; } Cheers. |
