CSS - Very Weird Css Flyout Menu Problem..
I changed over all my CSS flyout menus from the CSSPlay method to the whatever:hover method. It's working great. I've just got a minor, but annoying, problem that occurs in IE (6 & 7 tested).
URL 1 URL 2 Check out the left-side navigation menus on those two pages. Obviously they're different files, but the code is exactly the same for the menus (except the path for the links, of course). The pages even use the same stylesheet. So why, then, does the menu flutter when you hover over the "Our Dogs" <li> on the base level menu, but not move a pixel on the /dogs/ level menu? Here's the path to the stylesheet: Stylesheet 1 Similar TutorialsI have a vertical flyout menu setup on the left side of the page with the associated links arranged in vertical columns next to each menu selection. It is working fine 99% of the time but I am getting some reports that the vertical columns do not touch the main selection column so that when the user moves the cursor to the right to go to the selection list there is a break between the columns and the column disappears before a selection can be made. I have not been able to duplicate this on my IE8 and it works fine with Firefox. This makes it rather hard to trouble shoot so I am hoping someone else has had this problem and know what I am talking about. It seems to only happen to users with IE7 and IE8 but not most IE8 users. Is there perhaps some code I need to add to the CSS file that will solve this problem? THX Hello I hope somebody can help me. I have a newly designed home page for my website, which looks fine now in pretty well all browsers - but I've just started getting feedback from people looking at the site with ie, and they say that the flyout menu on the left of the page is obscured by the content in the centre column when it does its flying out thing. I've tried giving the menu elements z-index:100; but it doesn't seem to have made any difference. I would be really appreciative if anyone can help - it is even more difficult to work out as I don't have access to a machine with ie as a browser, and remote screen shots don't show up the problem... This is the page: http://www.independentliving.co.uk/index.shtml And this is the part of the style sheet for the menu: .menu { width:150px; position:relative; margin:0; font-size:11px; margin:0px 0; z-index:100; } .menu ul li a, .menu ul li a:visited { display:block; text-decoration:none; color:#003366; width:150px; height:25px; text-align:center; border:1px solid #fff; border-width:1px 1px 0 0; background:#003366 url(nav.gif); line-height:19px; font-size:11px; z-index:100; } .menu ul { padding:0; margin:0; list-style-type: none; z-index:100; } .menu ul li { float:left; margin-right:1px; position:relative; z-index:100; } .menu ul li ul { display:none; } /* specific to non IE browsers */ .menu ul li:hover a { color:#996600; background:#cccccc; font-size:11px; text-decoration:none; z-index:100; } .menu ul li:hover ul { display:block; position:absolute; top:0; left:150px; width:150px; z-index:100; } .menu ul li:hover ul li a.hide { background:#ffffff; color:#003366; font-size:11px; text-decoration:none; } .menu ul li:hover ul li:hover a.hide { width:150px; font-size:11px; text-decoration:none; } .menu ul li:hover ul li ul { display: none; } .menu ul li:hover ul li a { display:block; background:#cccccc; color:#996600; width:200px; font-size:11px; text-decoration:none; z-index:100; } .menu ul li:hover ul li a:hover { background:#dfc184; color:#666666; font-size:11px; text-decoration:none; z-index:100; } .menu ul li:hover ul li:hover ul { display:block; position:absolute; left:151px; top:0; color:#003366; font-size:11px; text-decoration:none; z-index:100; } .menu ul li:hover ul li:hover ul li a { display:block; width:200px; background:#dfc184; color:#003366; font-size:11px; text-decoration:none; z-index:100; } .menu ul li:hover ul li:hover ul li a:hover { background:#bd8d5e; color:#fff; font-size:11px; text-decoration:none; z-index:100; } Any ideas gratefully received! Thanks Frances Hello, everyone. I'm a relative newcomer to CSS, and I decided I'd try and add a neat flyout menu to the new site I'm developing: www.mindwallpictures.com. As you'll notice, it works great in Firefox, but doesn't work at all in IE. Here is the CSS code from my site: Code:

It has been altered (by myself, the n00b) from the original code found at CSSplay: http://www.cssplay.co.uk/menus/flyout_4level.html It's bugging the crap out of me, and the guy wants the site done as early as next week. This is the one thing holding me back, since people...actually...use IE. -_- Poor souls. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks. the following code works in opera and i think mozilla, but in ie only the top menu flies-out. the other two (a div in a table, and a table in a div) don't work. Any idea how to amend the css so they do work. I have tried setting the z-index to various things, so i dont think that's it. ...waiting to fly Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"

Hi there, I'm working my way through html, css and web design at the moment, and looking at drop down menus. Currently I'm looking at css only menus, I haven't delved into javascript yet. So I I've got a few questions regarding what I've currently got: html4strict Code: Original - html4strict 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"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Hello</title> <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen" href="default.css" /> </head> <body> <div id="navbar"> <ul> <li><a href="#">Main Page</a></li> <li><a href="#">About</a></li> <li><a class="dropmenu"><a href="#">Tutorials</a> <ul> <li><a href="#">Photoshop</a></li> <li><a href="#">Dreamweaver</a></li> <li><a href="#">HTML</a></li> <li><a href="#">CSS</a></li> </ul> </a></li> <li><a class="dropmenu"><a href="#">Articles</a> <ul> <li><a href="#">3 column magic</a></li> <li><a href="#">Site layouts</a></li> <li><a href="#">Creating Navbars</a></li> </ul> </a></li> <li><a href="#">Links</a></li> </ul> </div> </body> </html> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> css Code: Original - css Code @charset "utf-8"; /* CSS Document */ #navbar ul { padding: 0; margin: 0; list-style: none; background-color: #3F9; width: 120px; } #navbar li { position: relative; } #navbar li li { position: static; } #navbar ul ul { background-color: #7B5; top: 0; left: 120px; display: none; position: absolute; } #navbar a { text-decoration: none; text-align: center; display: block; padding: 5px 10px; } #navbar a.dropmenu { padding: 0; margin: 0; border: none; display: block; } #navbar li:hover ul, #navbar a.dropmenu:hover ul { display: block; } #navbar a:hover, #navbar li:hover { color: #000; background-color: #3CF; } #navbar li:hover li:hover { background-color: #F04; } @charset "utf-8"; So its currently a vertical flyout menu, I'll be looking at horizontal drop down ones soon. Regarding the last css rule, I was just experimenting with presentation and was wondering if I could make the second level of menus have a different hover background colour than that of the initial menu. Is it just something I've got wrong with the selector (#navbar li:hover li:hover)? The 2nd, more puzzling thing, is that you can see in the first menu, only the text comes up as a hyperlink (or clickable). In the second level menus, the whole area of the li (being an a element displayed in block mode) is clickable. I am pretty sure this is a result of setting the position property of the the li elements to relative. I have set the li elements to static (default) in the second menu, and as noted, they work fine (or more desirably). Why does changing the position property of the li to relative suddenly stop it from being clickable? The relative positioning is needed to correctly position the second level uls (menus), unless there is another way to do that. BTW Currently looking at it with ie7 at the moment. What's going on here? Lastly, I was hoping my a.dropmenu elements would let ie6 display the menu; sadly this doesn't seem to be happening. Again, any ideas what's gone wrong? I was wondering if anyone knows of any tutorials or resources for creating a menu system using css. The problem I have is that when I change the submenu's which are divs to display, they pop into place. I want to change this aspect and assume there is a javascript solution to make the display slow down, but have not been able to find one on this forum or using google. Perhaps a pointer or two? Hi, I am hoping someone can help me please. I am looking for some code (CSS, PHP or otherwise) to be able to create a drop down menu (with flyout) on mouseover of some pre-existing pictures. I have tried to take some codes which "sort of" do what I need but I'm unable to modify them to do what I need them to. It seems like the varying widths of the PNGs is a sticking point. At the minute I have a navigation bar consisting of 5 PNGs of same height but different widths. I had intended it to work so that when you click on these top links you are given a page for that section, and along the top of that page are "sub links". However, I have changed my mind and would like to keep the current images, but on rollover have a drop down menu appear with the different "sub links" instead of having them on the top of each page. For example I have a PNG which says "About Clan Wars". I would like a mouseover to show a Dropdown with flyout like: >What Is Clan Wars? >What are the rules ----> D Class Rules ----> C Class Rules >Clan Wars 1 ----> Fight Card ----> Pictures ----> Videos >Clan Wars 2 ----> Fight Card ----> Pictures ----> Videos I hope that makes sense to whoever is reading. Thank you Sean I would first like to start out by stating that I hope I put this in the right forum. If it is a problem with my html, then obviously I am trying to fix the wrong things. I also hope that I am using the proper terminology or something close enough that you can understand. Anyway, here is my problem. I have created a website for a dog rescue group with no spare money. So they picked me to create a website. I knew nothing about how to do it so I have been teaching myself along the way. The woman in charge of the group decided that she wanted a flyout in the left navigation and tasked me with creating it. So after a lot of research I thought I had it. Alas, I did not. That brings me to you guys. Firefox Problems: The flyouts are not big enough. They do not expand to fix the words. It looks much like text wrapping. I can't figure this out because it works in IE When I add lists in the main portion of the page and add a third tier to it, a flyout box appears at the top of the page instead of the list. Also on the lists, clicking on a something linked, stretches a "you clicked on me" box across the entire length of the page. (sorry for a lousy description. I don't know the actual term.) IE Problems: The colored boxes that surround the two links that have the flyouts, have an extra line of color below the link. I am not sure what is causing this. On one flyout are two links. The top one is cut off immediately after the word even though the one below it is not. It has the same problem with the third tier of lists being in a flyout at the top of the screen that Firefox has. If this isn't the correct area of code let me know. Oh, and I validated both the XHTML and CSS. CSS: PHP Code: #nav ul { margin:10px 0 10px 5px; padding:0 0 0 0; background:transparent; } #nav li { list-style-type: none; position: relative; background:#B7D7AF; color: #daa520; border:1px solid #7DB26E; text-align:left; padding:0 0 0 0; margin-bottom:6px; vertical-align: bottom; } #nav li a { color: #ffffff; font-weight:bold; text-decoration: none; display: block; padding:2px 0 2px 5px; } #nav li a:hover { background:#ffffff; color: #7F9BC5; } #nav li a:hover:after { background:#ffffff; color: #7F9BC5; content: url(img/square.gif) } #active a { display: block; color: #FFF; background-color: #99CCFF; width: 15.65em; padding: .2em .8em; text-decoration: none; } .navholder { width: 8em; float: left; display: inline; margin: 15px 20px 5px 20px; } ul a { display: block; padding: 5px 10px; vertical-align: bottom; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; color: #552; } ul ul { position: absolute; left: -3000px; background: #fed; } li:hover {background: #ddf;} ul li:hover ul { left: 10em; top: 2px; } ul a:hover {text-decoration: underline;} /* \*/ /*/ ul li ul {position: static;} /* */ XHTML: PHP Code: <div class="wrapper"> <div class="navholder"> <div class="leftcontent" id="nav"> <img alt="bg image" src="img/left_bg_top.gif" /> <ul> <li id="active"><a href="index.html">Home</a></li> <li><a href="about_us.html">About Us</a></li> <li><a href="our_team.html">The Team</a></li> <li style="z-index: 10;"><a href="adoption_process.html">Adoption Process</a> <ul> <li><a href="our_dogs.html">Our Dogs</a></li> <li><a href="special_needs_dogs.html">Special Needs Dogs</a></li> </ul> </li> <li style="z-index: 9;"><a href="how_to_help.html">How To Help Us</a> <ul> <li><a href="how_to_help_volunteer.html">Volunteer</a></li> <li><a href="how_to_help_foster.html">Foster</a></li> <li><a href="how_to_help_other.html">Other Ways To Help</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="helpful_information.html">Helpful Information</a></li> <li><a href="contact_us.html">Contact Us</a></li> </ul> I have screenshots I may be able to post later, in case I am not explaining the problem correctly or so you can see what it looks like on my computer. I am new so I am restricted until 5 posts. I am not sure if you can look on my homepage in my profile (which is the same one I am talking about here). It is test.html and doctors_office.css Any help would be great. If someone knows and easier way of do this would (if I took the long/hard way), that would be great, also. Thanks in advance from someone new at this. On my website lakelandedc.com the Side bar is very weird in the way tat if you go down from one topic to the other it snaps back and you lose your place for what you tried to click on. how can i fix this menu or make a new one that will b more user friendly? Hey everyone, I am just touching up an old design I made, and I just noticed that Firefox has a weird white-space next to the top menu. Not sure what is causing it, but it is there. Here is a screenshot of what is happening in Firefox. Also, in IE, the container doesn't extend past the bottom menu. Here is a screenshot of what is happening in IE.

So I have the following website: http://www.itmustbecollege.com/ and it has a problem SOMEWHERE that I can't seem to figure out. The problem is that all of my pages now have a big "space" on the far right, forcing a huge horizontal size. I have tried to debug but can't seem to find out the exact problem. It is weird, because certain parts of the website have a "width: 100%" yet ENDS at the correct look, yet there is still that huge space! Hi there! Please have a look here. As you can see there's a scrolling box with a overflow:auto propriety set. All works well either in Firefox and Internet Explorer, but I had to use a hack to made it work with IE: Code:
#content {
position: relative;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
padding-right: 25px;
padding-left: 25px;
font-family: Verdana,Arial,helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
text-align: justify;
overflow: auto;
width: 543px;
height: 225px;
background-image: url(img/centerblank.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
_background-attachment: fixed;
}
FF doesn't read the _background-attachment so all works fine.. problem is, this way the css code is no w3c compliant. Any ideas? Hi, I have developed a page using only CSS with html. That means I have two files at the moment, layout.css and default.html. When I test it on my computer it works fine on IE6.0, Firefox, Netscape and Opera. I then decided to give it a go on the live internet. I created an account with geocities and uploaded all the required files. Now, when I loaded the page from IE6.0 the website is broken. Which means it is not displaying as it was when I was loading it from my computer. However Firefox and Opera are loading it fine. For me this is just weird, since if I download the html from the page (right click, view source), save it on my pc, and load it again from my computer (locally), it works fine on IE6.0 again. I know how I could solve this problem, however should I try solving this problem if my page is displaying fine on my computer (on the three browsers) but incorrectly on geocities? Ps: I am only using geocities for testing. Regards, Sim085 Hello. I've got a header div that my banner is in, below that, another div called "welcome".

So, I have my CSS, works wonderfully (well, as expected) in FF2. Unfortunately, IE7, Safari 3, and Opera 9 all seem to ignore the whole stylesheet. UNLESS! Any one of the properties in the sheet is declared !important. Then, it applies the entire sheet the way I expect. What gives? The way I understand (understood?) specificity, the !important flag should only effect the specific line it's applied to, not the entire sheet. Right? I'm really confused. The stylesheet is included last, so all else being equal, should cascade properly and override the other sheets. Any ideas? I'm just going to use the !important for now, but I really don't like that. MPEDrummer Hey guys, I was wondering if you can help me out with something. On my blog I couldn't figure out how to get the page to align to the top, so I had to use a negative margin on the header. Well now it's fine in firefox, but looks all botched in IE. What a surprise, right? Can you take a look at help me figure out what I need to fix? www.illuminatedmind.net Thanks! Hi guys, I'm at the end of my rope about this. I have a three-column layout which is behaving fine in mozilla. IE, as usual, is causing problems. I've given the troublesome column a background color of yellow to emphasize the problem. There's a right padding sort of thing going on that's forcing the right-most column out of its place; might be easier if you just look at it: http://www.teamsnowvalley.com/home.php (still a work in progress. just sayin) the css behind the column: #content .left { float:left; padding-right:9px; background:yellow; width:179px; voice-family: "\"}\""; voice-family:inherit } html>body #content .left { width: 179px; } Can anyone tell what i'm doing wrong? Many thanks, M I'm having a slight problem with the appearance of the border for the DIV below the navigation bar. Firefox runs the border through the entire width of the DIV, but IE stops the bottom border as soon as the last <LI> is reached.. Any ideas guys? Thanks in advance. http://www.manliusvillage.org/test/index.html The related CSS is below: Code:

Hey guys, First post here. I've scoured the web for answers, searched this forum, and visited many CSS sites (alistapart, maxdesign.com.au, positioniseverything, htmldog, etc.) and haven't seen a problem like this. I'm learning CSS as we speak (or more correctly, as I type), and here's the issue. I have a space between my #header and #page. I can't get rid of it unless I put a border around the #page. I've posted four screens here so you can see what's going on in Safari and Firefox (the two browsers I use). #1 is what the site looks like now (as the code is below). #2 is with the #header removed, #3 is with the #header removed and a 1px border put around the #page, and #4 is with the #header there and the #page has a 1px border. It seems to me that the #page has a top margin, and I've tried margin-top: 0px; and tons of other combos, but I can't get that space to go away unless I put a border around #page. Here's my css: Code: /* basic elements */
body {
font: 8pt/16pt georgia;
color: #000000;
background: #AEAEAE url(images/butterflybg.gif) no-repeat top center;
}
p {

Hello, First off, if you know of a way to make round cornered boxes (that stretch hor and vert) in css using less than 6 divs, please be my guest. Now the problem I'm having is IE specific, when i load up the IE DOM inspector, i see that all the divs before the bottomleft div have a height that too big. i don't know what this could be from because i never set a height attribute for any of the divs. http://72.29.74.19/~majdkgf/tangerine/ NOTE: this doesn't happen to the last box |
