CSS - Div In Center Of Screen
Hi All,
This is my first post in CSS forums. I want to display a DIV in the center of screen. I am using this DIV for the showing the progress image in my search page (So it is is visible only in some cases.) How can I make it visible in the center of the visible screen (above all other elements). Note: User may have scrolled down the screen. I hope this is possible with CSS Similar TutorialsI have been looking for this all over the place but cant find the right solution. I want a div aligned like it's on this website. Code: http://www.captaincrawl.com/ 1. It's aligned in the center/middle of the screen 2. It's relative so it moves according to the window size 3. It should work on major browsers such as IE Can anyone help me please? If I have a bunch of <div>'s floated here and there to form the layout of my page, if I want to have my design centered on the screen do I have to wrap the whole thing in a another pair of div's, ie <div align="center">...</div> ? Hello! I am in need of some help with my css. I know, I am a total newbie but need some help with getting the css working properly. It seems that some parts work for IE and other parts work for Firefox. It seems like my left bar shows differently in IE and Firefox. Furthermore I have checked with IE on Mac and the main body doesn't show correctly either. It is displayed too short, doesn't fill the box. If anyone please could take a look at the code and see if they can help me I would appreciate it. Please anyone help me. You can see the page at: http://www.galakse.no/test/index.php/tscm/news The css is located he http://www.galakse.no/test/design/tscm/stylesheets/tscm.css Any and all help is very much appreciated! Thank you! Hi, I am a wannabe css compiler... Have the following problem. wrote css for a square screen monitor and placed css box in an area to the right of center, my partner called and told me it sat to the left over the side menu onher wide screen. I cannot figure out how to compensate the (top/left) position to cover both type screens... Anyone help me? I am using the following code how do I change it so that it would show up in the center of the brower window? Thanks Tim PHP Code: <div style="position: absolute; left: 0px; z-index: 1; top: 0px; align: center\"> <object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" codebase=\"http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0 ,0\" width=\"544\" height=\"396\" id=\"cardio\" align=\"middle\"> <param name=\"allowScriptAccess\" value=\"sameDomain\" /> <param name=\"movie\" value=\"ads/cardio3.swf\" /> <param name=\"loop\" value=\"false\" /> <param name=\"quality\" value=\"high\" /> <param name=\"wmode\" value=\"transparent\" /> <param name=\"bgcolor\" value=\"#ffffff\" /> <embed src=\"ads/cardio3.swf\" loop=\"false\" quality=\"high\" wmode=\"transparent\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\" width=\"544\" height=\"396\" name=\"cardio\" align=\"middle\" allowScriptAccess=\"sameDomain\" type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" pluginspage=\"http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer\" /> </object> </div> <html> 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"> <head> <title>All Fore U Golf Clinic</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="drop_down.js"></script> <style type="text/css"> @import "nav.css"; </style> <style type="text/css" media="screen"> </style> </head> <body> <div id="header">header thing</div> <div id="wrapper"> <div id="container"> <div id="content"> <h1>content</h1> <p>Sum Stuff goes here...</p> <p class="last">...and here</p> </div> </div> <div id="sidebar"> <h1>navigation</h1> <ul id="nav"> <li><a href="#">Home</a></li> <li><a href="#">About</a> <ul> <li><a href="#">History</a></li> <li><a href="#">Team</a></li> <li><a href="#">Offices</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="#">Golf Stuff</a> <ul> <li><a href="#">Clubs stuff</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.google.com">accessories stufff</a></li> <li><a href="#">Hosting</a></li> <li><a href="#">Domain Names</a></li> <li><a href="#">Broadband</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="#">Contact Us</a> <ul> <li><a href="#">United Kingdom</a></li> <li><a href="#">France</a></li> <li><a href="#">USA</a></li> <li><a href="#">Australia</a></li> </ul> </li> </ul> <br> </div> <div class="clearing"> </div> </div> <div id="footer">footer thing</div> </body> </html> CSS: Code: body { font: normal 11px verdana; } ul { margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; width: 150px; /* Width of Menu Items */ border-bottom: 1px solid #ccc; } ul li { position: relative; } li ul { position: absolute; left: 149px; /* Set 1px less than menu width */ top: 0; display: none; } /* Styles for Menu Items */ ul li a { display: block; text-decoration: none; color: #777; background: #fff; /* IE6 Bug */ padding: 5px; border: 1px solid #ccc; border-bottom: 0; } /* Fix IE.

I've run into yet another IE "feature" that i'd like to ask you, dear colleagues, how to solve. I have a relatively positioned div and i need to absolute position another div inside of it to fill almost all width and height of the parent. I need it to have a 20px margin from top and bottom. Here's what works in real browsers: Code: .somediv{ position: absolute; left: 0; top: 20px; bottom: 20px; right: 0; } Now how do i make it work in a developer's nightmare IE? There are 2 more divs in top and bottom both 20px high so the new div shouldn't overlap with them. how can i get a div in the middle of the y-axis of the browser window? I couldn't figure out why people were telling me they couldn't see my page but i could see it just fine in two different locations. Come to find out I use firefox and IE is showing a blank page. Can someone help me with this? I have a page dien all in css that is all set for 800x600 resolution. Does any one know how I can detect larger screen size/resolutions and center the entire page for these instances thanks JT In IE 7.0 Why is the text displaying the way it is in this screen shot: http://www.larreamma.com/screens/lmma.png It should display like this: http://www.larreamma.com/screens/lmma_ie8.png (I do not have access to IE 7 to readly test various options). Thank you in advance. I have been doing this joomla site for someone here The problem is he says when its viewed on a 22" screen with a screen resolution of 1200x800 it does not view right in IE, check images on this post. I have not seen any of the problems on a 15, 17 , 19 and 42 " screens Can anyone else see any problems could you also check load times he said it was slow. An help would be great as i can't see the problem I have finally got my page set up as required. There is one minor niggle. The footer sits at the bottom of the page when the browser is maximised and has no content. If the browser is not maximised or the content introduces scroll bars the footer is bumped up one pixel in IE. How can I get around this? The footer CSS is below, if you require any more CSS let me know which elements (roughly) as there is a lot of it. PHP Code: #wrap { margin-left: auto; /*center the wrapper CSS2 compliant (all except IE*/ margin-right: auto; margin-top: -21px; width: 760px; top: 21px; min-height: 100%; position: relative; left: 0px; background-image: url(../images/content_bg.gif); text-align: left; } * html #wrap { height:100%; padding-bottom: -20px; } #clear_footer { clear: both; height: 21px; overflow: visible; z-index: 1999; /*background-color: green; Used for demonstration purposes only, remove after testing*/ } #contain_footer { left: 0; margin-top: -21px; width: 100%; height: 21px; background-color: red; background-image: url(../images/contain_footer_bg.gif); padding-bottom: 0px; z-index: 2002; } #footer { position: absolute; bottom: 0; margin: 0 auto; width: 760px; height: 21px; line-height: 21px; vertical-align: center; background-image: url(../images/footer_bg.gif); z-index: 1999; } I am having a very strange problem with firefox and different screen resolutions. I have just made a navigation system for a website and tested the links in I.E and F.F - no problems in my screen resolution of 1280 x 1024. I tested it at 800 x 600 and 1024 x 768 and firefox does not change to the hover status when hovering over the link. There are no problems in I.E at the smaller resolutions. Does anyone have any ideas what is causing this problem. After playing around with a few things i discovered that if i change my display from inline to block it works perfectly in firefox at all resolutions - In I.E it causes a step like appearance to the links. Below is the css I am using, I have also added the xhtml at the bottom. Code: #top_button li { margin: 0; display: inline; list-style-type: none; } #top_button a:link, #top_button a:visited { float: left; overflow: hidden; height: 0px; } #top_nav { margin: 0; padding: 0; } #top_button { position: relative; top: 0px; left: 157px; height: 19px; list-style: none; margin: 0; } #t1 a:link, #t1 a:visited { background-image: url(../images/top_nav_home_1.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; padding-top: 19px; width: 47px; } #t1 a:hover, #t1 a.current { background-position: 0px -19px; } #t2 a:link, #t2 a:visited { background-image: url(../images/top_nav_services_1.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; padding-top: 19px; width: 63px } #t2 a:hover, #t2 a.current { background-position: 0px -19px; } #t3 a:link, #t3 a:visited { background-image: url(../images/top_nav_portfolio_1.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; padding-top: 19px; width: 65px; } #t3 a:hover, #t3 a.current { background-position: 0px -19px; } #t4 a:link, #t4 a:visited { background-image: url(../images/top_nav_resources_1.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; padding-top: 19px; width: 72px; } #t4 a:hover, #t4 a.current { background-position: 0px -19px; } #t5 a:link, #t5 a:visited { background-image: url(../images/top_nav_contact_1.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; padding-top: 19px; width: 59px; } #t5 a:hover, #t5 a.current { background-position: 0px -19px; } { xhtml Code: <div id="top_nav"> <ul id="top_button"> <li id="t1"><a class="current" href="/" title="home"></a></li> <li id="t2"><a href="/services" title="services"></a></li> <li id="t3"><a href="/portfolio" title="portfolio"></a></li> <li id="t4"><a href="/resources" title="resources"></a></li> <li id="t5"><a href="/contact" title="contact"></a></li> </ul> </div> I would appreciate any suggestions! I am in the process of designing a website and I have dual monitors at home, one is using 1024x768, and other is using 1280x1024 resolution. The website I have designed, off course looks different from one resolution to the other. One the less resolution monitor, the site looks big (my masthead is 750x200 and the whole page is approximately 770x900), however, on the high resolution, the site looks tiny. on 1200 wide resolution my page width is only 770, so there is white (in my case blue) space both sides making it look not so good. Because of the above reason, the site looks big on one monitor and very tiny on the other. I am sure there would be lots of people out there with those two kinds of resolutions (I am mostly concerned about these two resolutions). I wonder how do people deal with this when they are designing a website? Could one find out the resolution of the monitor ahead of time (before displaying the page) and have different css/images be loaded based on the monitor it is being viewed? Is there a concept of floating site -- what I mean by that is if there is a concept of site automatically changing appearance based on screen resolution? Thanks!!! I could use some help testing out a css box that's been breaking on large screen res's. Its a sliding door effect as the page gets wider made with 800px wide images. I added max-width: 1600px to my container I'm hoping that fixed it. Quote: #container{ width: 100%; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: 100px; max-width: 1600px; } I was wondering if there was anyway to make a div appear at the bottom of the monitor. In other words, on my laptop, I have a site that I need to scroll down for. It goes as far down as a copyright notice. The copyright notice has a black border on top, right, and left, but not the bottom. That's fine because when it gets to that item, it stops scrolling and lines up with the bottom of the monitor. However, at home, I have a 21" monitor, and the bottom element is just floating there because everything easily fits within the screen. I wanted to see if I could get that bottom element to line up at the bottom of the viewable area somehow. Is this possible? Thanks. Suppose I have the following script that creates a div element and set its width and height to fill the whole screen: Code: <script type="text/javascript"> var oDiv = document.createElement('div'); oDiv.style.width = window.screen.availWidth + "px"; oDiv.style.height = window.screen.availHeight + "px"; //oDiv.style.width = window.screen.width + "px"; //oDiv.style.height = window.screen.height + "px"; oDiv.style.border = "solid 1px #ccc"; document.body.appendChild(oDiv ); </script> well, the code above actually does the job, BUT a scrollbar (vertical and horizontal) is also created ... how to get rid of the scrollbars? I created a footer that sits on the bottom of the screen using this code: .footer { padding-top:5px; margin-top:5px; font-size:8pt; color:#FFFFFF; position:absolute; bottom:0px; background-image:url('gfx/bg-bottom.jpg'); height:22px; width:100%; } It looks fine when the window is expanded to the size of the screen, but when you shrink it down (so the scroll bar will appear) and then scroll, the footer bar scrolls with the page.. It's kind hard to explain, just give it a try he http://www.juiceboxseo.com/do-it.php Is there a way to make sure it stays on the bottom? Hi When you resize the window to a smaller window the css formatted page contracts and it looks bad. How can you make it add scrollbars so the content doesn't squish as it stays where it is but scrollbars are added to view the whole page. Can it be done as this has a bad effect on my webpage with a few containers when resized to a smaller size. <style type="text/css"> body{margin:0%;padding:0%;min-width:700px;overflow:auto;} I use %positioning for the containers so I guess that also resizes in smaller window mode. If I was to use pixel length and SR is 800X600 is that the actual size i use or would it be smaller? |
