CSS - Form Overflowing Containg Div
I'm having a problems with a form overflowing it's containing div
Link removed The html: Code:
<div id="mainbody">
<h2>Manage Double rooms by day</h2>
<br/>
<form name="list" id = "calendarmonth" action="" method="post">
....
</form>
<form name="list" id="#updatedays" action="updatewebroomdays.php" method="post">
...
</form>
</div>
Code: #mainbody {
padding:0;
margin: 4em;
position:relative;
}
#content {
position:relative;
background-color:#ffffff;
margin-top: -1em;
}
I can fix it buy adding another div around the containting div, like this Code: <div id="content">
<div id="mainbody">
<h2>Manage Double rooms by day</h2>
<br/>
<form name="list" id = "calendarmonth" action="" method="post">
....
</form>
<form name="list" id="#updatedays" action="updatewebroomdays.php" method="post">
...
</form>
</div>
</div>
.... but I don't know why this fixes it and what I'm doing wrong... Thanks James Similar TutorialsI have nested tables and when an inner table has margin-left: 50px and width: 100%, the inner table overflows the outer table. The problem occurs with IE6 and Opera 7 (didn't test with Opera 8). Here is the code: Code: <style type="text/css">
table.cmnt
{
border-collapse: collapse;
margin-top: 8px;
border: 1px solid black;
width:100%;
text-align: left;
background-color: #EEEEEE;
}
</style>
<table border="1" width="70%" cellpadding="7">
<tr>
<td>
<table class="cmnt" cellpadding="3">
<tr>
<th>
Title
</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
Text
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table class="cmnt" style="margin-left: 50px;" cellpadding="3">
<tr>
<th>
Title
</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
Text
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
Correct rendering with Firefox: Incorrect rendering with IE: (the images are cropped) Any ideas how to fix this? I used the following code to hide overflowing content in one of my earlier works. Not working this time, check it yourself (purple section), http://www.refinethetaste.com/html/ Code:
<style>
.playlist { float:left; width:474px; height:80px; background:#FFF; overflow:hidden; }
.playlist .entries { position:absolute; width:10000em; }
.playlist .entries a { float:left; width:452px; height:60px; font-size:9px; padding:10px; background:#90F;}
.playlist .entries a:hover { background-position:-211px 0; color:#000; }
.playlist .entries a.playing { background-position:-422px 0; }
.playlist .entries a.paused { background-position:-633px 0; }
.playlist .entries a.progress { opacity:0.8; }
/* prev, next, prevPage and nextPage buttons */
a.prev, a.next, a.prevPage, a.nextPage { float:left; width:20px; height:60px; margin:15px 0; background:url(/html/themes/default/images/home_carousel_arrow_left.png) no-repeat; display:block; cursor:pointer;}
/* mouseover state */
a.prev:hover, a.next:hover, a.prevPage:hover, a.nextPage:hover { background-position:0px -18px; }
/* disabled navigational button */
a.disabled { visibility:hidden !important; }
/* next button uses another background image */
a.next, a.nextPage { background-image:url(/html/themes/default/images/home_carousel_arrow_right.png); }
</style>
First off, here is the url to the page I am working on: http://chaos.ramdu.net/projects/new_design/test.html And the code: Code:

The page renders as thought in FireFox, but in IE, the DIV containers expand to the width of the white DIV. I want the page to render in IE exactly as it does in FireFox, but I am at a loss to try and do it. Hey it's a Friday night and I'm having the worst problems with IE. My page looks ok in FF and Safari but in IE the body is overflowing by like 350px or so. I don't know why it's doing this. I've used my Firebug but it doesn't really style that overflow section. It's like a ghost section. Doc type is XHTML strict, here's the pertinent CSS. Thanks for any help you can offer. This is kind of ruining my friday night. Code:
html {
height: 100%;
}
body {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;
background: #000 url('img/mainbg.jpg') top left repeat-x;
text-align: center;
width: 100%;
padding: 0;
margin:0;
height: 1200px;
}
#icontainer {
background-image: url('img/containerbg.jpg');
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
width: 974px;
height: 1200px;
}
#plain {
background-image: url('img/plainback.jpg');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
margin-bottom: 0;
margin-top: 0;
width: 974px;
height: 1200px;
overflow-y: hidden;
}
Hi, I am really stuck and need some help. I have created an alphabet of links across the top of a page. The mark up is like this; <div id="alphabet"> <a href="#">a</a> <a href="#">b</a> ... </div> Along with an Eric Meyer reset.css stylesheet it has the following CSS applied; #alphabet{ width: 940px; margin: 0 auto;} #alphabet a { text-decoration: none; color: #757575; font-size: 20px; margin: 5px 5px; padding: 5px 5px; border: 1px dashed #757575;} #alphabet a:hover { color: #333; border: 1px solid #333; } #alphabet a.current-letter{ background: #545353; color: #ffe224; font-weight:600;} The problem I have is that the #alphabet container only has the height of links' text. It does not included the padding, margin or border. Therefore if I apply a background to #alphabet the links' top and bottom borders appear outside of the div. I have tried adding overflow: hidden/auto but that only resulted in making the bit outside the div disappear. Anyone got any ideas??? Thanks in advance Hello everyone, I am pretty new to css but have code from various css sites that have used to get the layout i wanted. I am having an issue with IE7. In IE8 and Chrome everything is working like intended. The link to the page in question is philadler.com/dance09.html I have validated the CSS and xhmtl and the page passed both. Can anyone tell my why in IE7 the content is overflowing into the right column, but in the other 2 browsers i have tested it works fine. Also, does anyone know of a good photo gallery. Some of the events i will be putting have hundreds of pictures is there an auto formating or auto coding gallery that will look at the folder of the pictures and at it to the gallery? Thanks for any help Phil On the this page you will notice the ASDF overflowing into the footer if you resize the page to 1024x768 size. I'm trying to keep the footer on the bottom but the content still seems to creep into the footer? Any ideas? This only happens in IE 6 and 7, FF seems to handle it just fine. I w3c checked everything, html is good to go, css has some warnings but nothing that I seem to have to worry about. Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm kinda new to css and trying to do this layout with CSS looks ok it IE but I cant get Netscape containers to expand. http://countrystampinangel.com/test.html http://countrystampinangel.com/test.css I am constructing a new website and need help preventing the header text from overflowing. I have tried combinations of overflow:hidden; but does not seem to work. The site is here. Advice on how I can prevent overflow for FFox, IE6/7 appreciated.

Greetings, I have a 3 column layout with a header, nav bar, content space and footer on the center column, making the center column have 4 rows. The content div's height is set to auto and it's overflow to auto so that when the browser is maximized on higher resolutions it will expand and contain the text without a scrollbar. alternatively it will give a scroll bar if the content div is shrunk below 300px. however the auto height on the content div is causing it to take up more room than necessary. if the window is shrunken down, the content text will leak out over the footer bar and beyond. Before i post code does anyone have any suggestions on what i should be looking for? If code is wanted lemme know. Hi, I am having a strange issue with my new site code . I am experimenting with a new look and decided to go with all css, no tables look. I have a div where the enteries go. I entered some random text to see how it looks. To my surprise in Mozilla 1.7.10 the text overflows from the entry div into the other one while it works fine in Internet Explorer ( the post box expands automatically to fit all the text). Second the in the commentsarea div, why is the "comments(1) floating in the middle of the entry box instead of the bottm right ? here is the code in question Code:

Thanks Damnit. Differing browser box models piss me off. I guess thats what you get for being a web developer, where someone can use 6+ different programs to run your code. I just started doing design with divs instead of tables and man what a PITA. I really like the idea of "building blocks" tho (and I really hate the inflexibility of tables), so I'm trying to grind through it. Its a small project, however, so I havent really been able to test cross-browser compatibility too much. I'm running into a strange error in IE (sidenote: the page does seem to be handled correctly in Opera (though Firefox jacks the page up totally)). Anyways, I have a series of nested divs (to emulate the structure of a table). Everything looks fine until I start messing around with divs with a display of 'none'. When I insert a div (or set a current div's) with display = 'none', part of the form input text will "flow over" outside of the div. In the pictured example, "Zachary Wedgeworth" is the last entry in the selectbox. There is no code / html after that selectbox, but as you can see, "Wedgeworth" appears after it! It isnt even able to be highlighted! The second line of the form contains a div with style='display:none'. If there's no div containing anything to do with display, this "overflow" error doesnt occur. There should be no difference in inserting a non-displayed div vs. never putting the div in the code at all, but (in IE at least), there is. stupid & frustrating. Has anyone run into this problem or have any idea why this might be occuring? Its already stumped a couple fellow programmers. Hi, I'm new to CSS and haven't been able to get this working. I have two layers, one for an image, and another for text that goes on top. The text is supposed to be centered and the image should be centered wrt the text. The problem is that sometimes a word in the text will be too long and there's overflow. When this happens, the image stays on the left and the text box gets larger. This way the image isn't right behind the center of the text. I tried using overflow: visible but this didn't change anything. Thanks for any help. If you are getting results as in the above image, simply add "clear:both;" to the container (blue) div which you do not want affected and it will flatten its ceiling and stop any float's escaping. -Luke Whenever I specify <form> in an html page I find that the browser will skip a space after I'm done with the form. Overly simplified example: Code: <html> <body> <form name="input" action="html_form_action.asp" method="post"> Username: <input type="text" name="user"> <input type="submit" value="Submit"> </form> test (notice that this is two lines below the input box instead of one) </body> </html> Is there any way to use a <form> tag but still have the text after the form appear right after the form and not skip extra spaces? how would i change the colour of a text box in css? and also not sure if this is css or javascript but how do i clear a text box when the user clicks on it to write in their username? thanks tony Is there a way to alter the <form> starting tag so that it doesn't add white space before and after it? I have this form tag that is really screwing with my design because of the spacing it's adding to the page ... I have found CSS to make an entire form pretty, but not something to remove the space that this tag adds to my page. I'm relatively new to css and i'm hoping this forum will help me get better acquainted by working out some of the problems i'm running into. the address is: thenserenity.com/form.html this form looks fine in everything except IE. in IE there is no margin and the text starts in the top left of the div, as you can see if you check it out in ie. i have two css's, 1 general and 1 for ie. here is the ie css: --------------------------- @charset "utf-8"; /* CSS Document */ div#wrapper { background:none; filterrogidXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='colhead-tl.png' ,sizingMethod='crop'); } .nav { margin-top:49px; } .rounded_STYLE { background-color: white; /* if needed */ border: 25px solid white; /* if needed */ position: relative; } .rounded_STYLE > .tl, .rounded_STYLE > .tr, .rounded_STYLE > .bl, .rounded_STYLE > .br { width: 750px; height: 25px; position: absolute; } .rounded_STYLE > .tl { background: url(../images/colhead-tl.jpg) top left no-repeat; top: -25px; left: -25px; } .rounded_STYLE > .tr { background: url(../images/colhead-tr.jpg) top right no-repeat; top: -25px; right: -25px; } .rounded_STYLE > .bl { background: url(../images/colhead-bl.jpg) bottom left no-repeat; bottom: -25px; left: -25px; } .rounded_STYLE > .br { background: url(../images/colhead-br.jpg) bottom right no-repeat; bottom: -25px; right: -25px; } br.clear { clear:both; } /* FORM -----------*/ .rounded_STYLEform { background-color: white; /* if needed */ border: 25px solid white; /* if needed */ position: relative; width:auto; height: 200px; } .rounded_STYLEform > .tl, .rounded_STYLEform > .tr, .rounded_STYLEform > .bl, .rounded_STYLEform > .br { width: 750px; height: 25px; position: absolute; } .rounded_STYLEform > .tl { background: url(../images/colhead-tl.jpg) top left no-repeat; top: -25px; left: -25px; } .rounded_STYLEform > .tr { background: url(../images/colhead-tr.jpg) top right no-repeat; top: -25px; right: -25px; } .rounded_STYLEform > .bl { background: url(../images/colhead-bl.jpg) bottom left no-repeat; bottom: -25px; left: -25px; } .rounded_STYLEform > .br { background: url(../images/colhead-br.jpg) bottom right no-repeat; bottom: -25px; right: -25px; } ---------------------- anyone know how to make this form look, in ie, as it does in everything else. thanks, jtn Hello, I am creating a form based an ordered list. I want to have two columns: - Left column with labels and 20% width. - Right column with inputs with 80% width. The total width is defined by a div that contains the list ... or by the list itself. In this moment I have a few problems: 1. The inputs don't take the total width; 2. The labels get outside of the container on the left; 3. The required icon does not take a space to the input; 4. The input button is not aligned with other inputs. Could someone please help me out in solving these problems and improving my code? I created a sample project and uploaded it to: http://www.27lamps.com/Labs/Form/Form.html Any help would be great! Thank You, Miguel |
