CSS - "sticky" Footer Problems.
I've been puzzling over this for a while now!
I'm trying to make the footer stick to the bottom of the page even when the content isn't long enough. I have read many tutorials but none of them ever seem to work out quite right. I have created two pages to demonstrate the problems that I am having. http://www.explosiveracing.net/xmed...all_content.htm This is a page without much content and as you can see the footer is pushed to the bottom. All is well in FF but in IE the footers background seems to randomly disappear. Sometimes on a refresh it reappears but I cant work out what is causing it. http://www.explosiveracing.net/xmed...ong_content.htm This page has a large amount of content that pushes the footer further down. In IE though, the content partially overlaps the footer and the background image also still randomly disappears! Any ideas? Similar Tutorialshttp://cheers-sendai.com/fluidframe.htm has a great and simple example of 3 cols (OK, 2 cols in the middle section makes "4 cols"), header and sticky footer, where the middle col has overflow:auto so it can be scrolled. GREAT example, I think (due to the use of bg colors, etc.). The left/right/width values of the divs are manipulated so that the middle section runs from 10% to 90% and the left/right divs fill in accordingly. I'd like to be able to set, for example, the left and right divs to be 150 px wide (NO percentages!) and have the middle section stretch between them (regardless of viewport width) and be able to be scrolled, too. The problem I see is that most examples use percentages. I can set the left div to be a fixed width, then set the middle section left coord. to be, say, 150px, but then I need to set its width to stretch to "150 to the left of the right side of the viewport" and I don't know how to do this. Thanks. I have a single column CSS layout with a "sticky" footer. In the main column, I have a two column block resulting in a sidebar / main content set-up. Without the two-column block, the stick footer works fine. I can fill the page with 1000 lines of text, simple content DIVs, whatever. But the two-column block breaks it. See it he http://siliconsatan.com/test.php Can't figure out why (I'm a CSS noob, it's probably obvious) Any ideas? I'm taking over a departmental web page that has a whole bunch of Code: <body topmargin="0" bottommargin="0" leftmargin="0" rightmargin="0"> in the web pages. Does anyone know how to put this in a stylesheet so that I don't have to put this code in every <body> tag when I create a new page? I've searched all over and can't find a reasonable resolution. Thanks ok at Rodoslovlje I have an issue. The menu on the left is most of the times longer then the right content part. Is there a way to fix that when this occurs I can make the right part move along without editing every page and hitting enter 20 times? Thnx Hi all, I have a page with a sticky footer. It's all working great thanks to the sticky bottom tutorial from Ryan Fait. I already contact him but his wrists are broken so he can't do anything. This is the website we're talking about: - www .rokjesdagloop .nl And here is the deal: - As you can see the footer stays at bottom so I insert the sticky bottom tutorial wich lead us to this: www .rokjesdagloop .nl /test .php But I want the footer a little bit inside the content so the text overlaps the girl a bit on the background. I tried several things on the margin's and the heights but still nothing that works. Does anybody have tips or codes? Would be great! Thank you in advanced! Regards, Jonathan Hello! I am new to dreamweaver CS3 and need help with these two things: when I preview my site in IE my lightbox does not work. And my sticky footer does not stick to the bottom of the page. Please someone help me. Thank you in advance! Hey all, See on http://yourfishguide.com/Main_Page the grass at the bottom is 'siting' on the bottom of the page? Then on http://yourfishguide.com/Your_Fish_Guide:About it's a little above the bottom of the page. How can I make the grass "stick" to the bottom of the page, regardless of the length of the content above it? Thanks, Jordan what is the equivilant to <table border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0"> in css? i've tried PHP Code: table { border-spacing: 0px; padding: 0px; border-colapse: colapse; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px; } td { border-style: solid; border-width: 1px; padding: 2px; } That makes the width 2px wide though. I want it to only be one. And the padding seems to be messed up as well. hey, i have 2 CSS problems. number 1: my main <div> is not centered in IE. it's fine in FF, mozilla, and opera, but it stays all the way to the left in IE. Code: #main { width: 77%; margin: 0 auto; border: 1px solid #999; overflow: auto; background: #970303; color: #FFF; -moz-border-radius-topleft: 20px; -moz-border-radius-topright: 20px; -moz-border-radius-bottomleft: 20px; -moz-border-radius-bottomright: 20px; }
Code: <div id='main' align='center'> number 2: i can't figure out this gradient background stuff. i have an image, 1 px wide and 1000 px high. it works fine, but once theres enough information on a page, and its longer than the 1000px, the image starts over and looks extremely unprofessional. how can i make so that the one gradient image is stretched out for the length of the page? thanks. I'm using the CakePHP framework to build my site. I hope I'm not asking an impossible question and being since I'm new an all.. Anyways I finished a simple design well I thought it was simple anyway until I tried to make the content box to be a fluid width. Here's what it's supposed to look like. http://planet-rpg(dot)com/PR_style.png // yes I know I'm a new user.. Here's what I currently have. http://planet-rpg(dot)com Here's my coding. html Code:

I haven't used CSS/html in awhile but if anyone can help me either "fix" the content box so it appears like mockup which would be centered on my screen as my resolution is 2560X1600(30") and just repeat the <div's> when needed. Hope someone can help me with my question. http://stuweb.cms.gre.ac.uk/~as234/full/full.htm some problems: in IE the menu at the top is "block" level but i want it to be in a line? whereas in ff its ok! in ff, one of the menu image (called "main" on the left of review) doesnt appear but if u hover over it, u will see the rollover image! the background colour should be grayish however that DOESNT happen! I only have IE 6, so Im not sure if I have the same trouble in other versions of IE. The site looks great in FF 2 though! View: http://www.angelsar.org/development/funding.php - in FF then in IE6 and you cant miss what I'm talking about. Here is the CSS that came with the template I'm using: Code: body {

The only thing that doesn't validate is clear: all; under div.footer but even when removing that, it doesn't solve my problem. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks! (I originally posted this at the end of another of my topics but I don't think it was seen). I have just noticed this problem in firefox (may happen in other browsers) but I couldnt make it happen in IE6. After the first load of the page or after a "hard refresh" (ctrl + F5) the middle and right column do not "shift up" and leave a gap. (see attached picture). But if I refresh (just F5) firefox shifts them up to display the page as it should be seen. Example Picture The site itself. Any ideas? Hi guys, For a pure CSS site, is it still necessary to have height="82" and width="82" in <img ... /> ? Moreover, is it depreciated to have a size="25" tag in <input elements? (I know it could ba handled in CSS but nice to have directly in the html). Thank you Hi, I'm trying to build a nav using css, I need to style each <li> within the nav becuase they need to be different lengths on the page. I have had it working fine on IE but I can'#t get it working for for any other browser. Does soneone know how I can style each of my list items accordingly, notice the different block lengths for each one which is very important. I have tried both id="Style" and class="Style" and no joy, I have also tried #nav ul li li li li li a:hover in my style without id or class in my HTML Here is my Html PHP Code: <DIV id="nav"> <ul> <li id="1"><a href="Home">Home</a></li> <li id="2"><a href="About-us">About us</a></li> <li id="3"><a href="FlexNews">FlexNews</A></li> <li id="4"><a href="Careers">Careers</A></li> <li id="5"><a href="Contact">Contact</A></li> </ul> </div> Pretty straight forward, now my css PHP Code: #nav { width:1005px; vertical-align: middle; text-align: left; } #nav ul { list-style: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; } #nav li { float: left; text-align: left; } #1 a{ line-height: 20px; float: left; width: 215px; display: block; color: #000000; text-decoration: none; text-align: left; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; text-indent: 17px; border-right-width: 2px; border-right-style: solid; border-right-color: #FFFFFF; } #1 a:hover { line-height: 20px; float: left; width: 215px; display: block; color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: none; text-align: left; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #33A02C; text-indent: 17px; border-right-width: 2px; border-right-style: solid; border-right-color: #FFFFFF; } #2 a{ line-height: 20px; float: left; width: 211px; display: block; color: #000000; text-decoration: none; text-align: left; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; text-indent: 17px; border-right-width: 2px; border-right-style: solid; border-right-color: #FFFFFF; } #2 a:hover { line-height: 20px; float: left; width: 211px; display: block; color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: none; text-align: left; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #33A02C; text-indent: 17px; border-right-width: 2px; border-right-style: solid; border-right-color: #FFFFFF; } #3 a { line-height: 20px; float: left; width: 211px; display: block; color: #000000; text-decoration: none; text-align: left; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; text-indent: 17px; border-right-width: 2px; border-right-style: solid; border-right-color: #FFFFFF; } #3 a:hover { line-height: 20px; float: left; width: 211px; display: block; color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: none; text-align: left; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #33A02C; text-indent: 17px; border-right-width: 2px; border-right-style: solid; border-right-color: #FFFFFF; } #4 a { line-height: 20px; float: left; width: 184px; display: block; color: #000000; text-decoration: none; text-align: left; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; text-indent: 17px; border-right-width: 2px; border-right-style: solid; border-right-color: #FFFFFF; } #4 a:hover { line-height: 20px; float: left; width: 184px; display: block; color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: none; text-align: left; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #33A02C; text-indent: 17px; border-right-width: 2px; border-right-style: solid; border-right-color: #FFFFFF; } #5 a { line-height: 20px; float: left; width: 183px; display: block; color: #000000; text-decoration: none; text-align: left; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; text-indent: 17px; } #5 a:hover { line-height: 20px; float: left; width: 183px; display: block; color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: none; text-align: left; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #33A02C; text-indent: 17px; } Here is an exmple link http://dev.121design.co.uk/flextrade2/ Works fine in IE but not in Firefox, heres hopling someone can help. Thanks in Advance, tried so many different methods and none seem to work. Cheers, Stuart I want to make it so that when you go to type something into the textbox(lastname or firstname) the menu stays open. right now if you try and type something into the textbox the menu closes but you still keep right on writing and then go back into the menu and click the submit button. I also want it so that you can press the <enter> key on your keyboard and it will submit the search query that you are working on. if there is a better way of doing this all please let me know this is menu.php PHP Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>BHI and Roth's Website menu</title> <?php <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="menu_css.css" /> </head> <BODY STYLE="background-color:transparent"> <ul class="pureCssMenu pureCssMenum"> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="home.php" target="showframe">Home</a></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="#"><span>Fill-in a form</span><![if gt IE 6]></a><![endif]><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]--> <ul class="pureCssMenum"> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="form_bhi_hoac.php" target="showframe">102HOAC</a></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="form_for_adding_email_addresses.php" target="showframe">Email database</a></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="form_support_application.php" target="showframe">Support Application</a></li> </ul> <!--[if lte IE 6]></td></tr></table></a><![endif]--></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="#"><span>View the form data</span><![if gt IE 6]></a><![endif]><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]--> <ul class="pureCssMenum"> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="view_102hoac.php" target="showframe">102HOAC</a></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="#"><span>Search Addressbook by:</span><![if gt IE 6]></a><![endif]><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]--> <ul class="pureCssMenum"> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="#"><span>Last Name:</span><![if gt IE 6]></a><![endif]><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]--> <ul class="pureCssMenum"> <li class="pureCssMenui"><form class="pureCssMenui" action="lastname_search.php" method="post" target="showframe"><input type="text" name="lastname" size="30" /><input type="submit" align="right" value="Search" /></form></li> </ul> <!--[if lte IE 6]></td></tr></table></a><![endif]--></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="#"><span>First Name:</span><![if gt IE 6]></a><![endif]><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]--> <ul class="pureCssMenum"> <li class="pureCssMenui"><form class="pureCssMenui" action="firstname_search.php" method="post" target="showframe"><input type="text" name="firstname" size="30" /><input type="submit" align="right" value="Search" /></form></li> </ul> <!--[if lte IE 6]></td></tr></table></a><![endif]--></li> </ul> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="sa.php" target="showframe">Support Application</a></li> </ul> <!--[if lte IE 6]></td></tr></table></a><![endif]--></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="#"><span>Resources</span><![if gt IE 6]></a><![endif]><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]--> <ul class="pureCssMenui"> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="#"><span>View BHI Brochure -></span><![if gt IE 6]></a><![endif]><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]--> <ul class="pureCssMenum"> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="bhi_brochure_feb_08.pdf" target="_blank">in .pdf format</a></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="bhi_brochure_feb_08.swf" target="_blank">in .swf format</a></li> </ul> </ul> <!--[if lte IE 6]></td></tr></table></a><![endif]--></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="gallery.html" target="showframe">Photo Gallery</a></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="edit.php" target="showframe">Edit account information</a></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="logout.php" target="_top">Logout</a></li> </ul> </body> </html> <?php } } } else //if the cookie does not exist, they are taken to the login screen { header("Location: login.php"); } ?> </html> And this is menu_css.css Code: #pcm{display:none;}

that is basically the question. I have a main div, where content will dynamically be placed, so it will change height frequently. However, It has rounded corners, so either side of it I have 3 images, 2 of which are the corners, and one is a repeating y image. If i set a fixed size for the containing div's height(<div id="submaincontainer">), everything will jump to that.(everything else is set to inherit) However, if it's height is set to auto (which is really what I want) everything will be 1px tall. (URL address blocked: See forum rules)/cv/cv.html This is my first project with trying to strictly use div tags and CSS rather than a table. A table seems like it would be incredibly easier. Anyone know how to make this work? I have a very simple question: I have this html code: Code: <div id="text"> <p><a>text</a></p> <p><a class="red">text</a></p> <p><a>text</a></p> </div> And this CSS style: Code: .red { color: red; }
#text a{ color: blue; }
I would like to apply the .red class, but it does not work, because the #text a overrides it. How can I solve that? It is just an example because it is a cause of a problem generated by a CMS, and I can only play with the CSS, not with the HTML side. Hi guys! Let's say I have this IN BODY directly: Code: <div id="top_section"> ... </div> <ul id="menu"> ... </ul> Or should I do it like this: Code: <div id="top_section"> ... </div> <div id="menu"> <ul> ... </ul> </div> UL and DIV are both block elements so I think the first is acceptable (combining block elements whatever their sort is logical or am I completely wrong here??) Thank you Is there by chance a feature of MS Front Page that helps us out by changing height and width attributes to upper case, which CSS does not recognize? If so, is there a way to disable this feature? What is the popular alternative (among those in the know) to MS FP? The "normal-html-preview" screen format in FP is great. Or, can we simply get rid of the height and width calls in "img src=" links? Thank you for any attention to this. Ed |
