CSS - Menu Highlight Problems In Ie
Hi folks. Long time lurker, first time poster.
I've got some navigational menus that look great and work well in Firefox and Opera, but there are some odd issues in Internet Explorer. (I'm currently testing with IE7, but am fairly certain the same problems occur on IE6.) Interesting. The system won't let me put the URL in my post as I'm a new user, but this works... The URL for my test page is at a machine named www in the domain bobramstad.com and has the filename menu.html Just run that all together and you'll find the page OK. I'd cut and paste it here but I use a lot of whitespace and the file is kind of long, easier to hit the URL and view source it. For some unknown reason, under IE7, when I highlight any of the entries on the left which have submenus, the formatting of the main entry jumps around. It's odd. I have my own theories as to why this is happening, but frankly, none of them have panned out, or at least, I'm not sophisticated enough to hit on the right solution. FWIW, the current version of our home page uses an older mix of javascript and CSS which is not compatible with Safari or Opera and is also a bit clunky. Strangely, however, it looks fine in Firefox and IE, which might provide some clues as to what I'm doing wrong. I've been looking at this literally for three weeks, on and off, and have made some strides... the last problem is main menu jumping around when hover occurs... Any and all help gratefully received! -- Bob Similar TutorialsI'm a CSS newbie, so forgive me if I'm going about this the wrong way entirely. I'm trying to build a website with a menu that changes the source of an iFrame. So I have: Code: <html> <body> <div>**MENU**</div> <div><iframe id="contentFrame" src="home.htm"></iframe></div> </body> </html> Clicking a menu item, say "Contact Us", changes the src of the iFrame using: Code: <a href="javascript:document.getElementById('contentFrame').src='ContactUs.htm'">Contact Us</a> The menu is pure CSS, with each item underlining as it's rolled over, and some submenus that show up when hovering. What I'm looking to do is have the selected menu item have a different text color. So when you click "Contact Us", that item will change color and stay that other color while navigating the ContactUs.htm page in the iFrame. Is that even remotely do-able? I saw some examples where you use body classes and id's to match the id of the menu item to the body class of the related page. However, I think that would require loading completely separate pages (with the same menu, header, and footer code). I want to avoid the entire page flickering when changing content. I don't seem to be able to access the body class value of the page being loaded in the iFrame. Is that possible to do? Thanks for any guidance you all could offer. Hello, I can't seem to figure out how to make my CSS drop down menu work the way I want it to. I am using an id in the body tag and a class in the navigatin links so the style sheet will mark what section of the site you are in by making the background change color. This works. The problem is, now that I have the sections being marked, the highlight no longer works. How can I get the highlight to work in the section you are in? I have been experimenting for hours but I can't make it work. http://www.tpxdesign.com/test/Valliant/alpha/index7.php My nav menu code and nav style sheet: Code: <!--[if !IE]><!-- start nav --><![endif]--> <div id="side_nav_bar" class="floater"> <div id="nav_menu"> <ul id="nav"> <li><a href="demoreel.php" class="port">Portfolio</a> <ul> <li><a href="demoreel.php" class="port">Demo Reel/s</a></li> <li><a href="shorts.php" class="port">Shorts</a></li> <li><a href="musicvid.php" class="port">Music Video</a></li> <li><a href="comvid.php" class="port">Commercial</a></li> <li><a href="miscvid.php" class="port">Misc.

With the website lady gone on a trip around the world for a year, I ended up being the person to attempt to modify our side menu to show an additional column of subcategories. I tinkered around with the code we had and I managed to get this to work in Firefox, however in IE7 the contents of the menu shift down a few pixels when you hover over a category. To view my problem, go to scannerparts.biz I've messed around with this for a few days and everything has become a big confusing mess so I have no choice but give in and ask for help. I thank anyone in advance for any assistance you can offer. -Emerson Here is the code: hover.css Code: <!-- body { behavior: url(/images/csshover2.htc); } div#categorynav ul {margin: 0px; padding: 0px;} .submenu { position: relative;

I'm having a small problem putting the menu in to my site. The banner image for the site is 800px. When i put the menu in its not wide enough and i can't see a way of making it fit. Also i'm using a table to position it. When its positioned to the left there seems to be some padding or somthing making it not align up with the banner image. It appears to be 1 or 2px short. The style for the menu is...

space and help removing any padding thats making it not appear full width it would be much appreciated. Im relatively new to CSS and im trying to make a navigation menu. I've been able to gather some code from other tutorials and finally got one that works fine under firefox 3.5, Opera 9 and IE8. However i've been told that its not working properly under IE7. Can anyone tell me if theres a fix for this? i've searched around other tutorials but couldnt make sense of them (which is probably why the CSS is a bit messy). Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated. link: users.tpg.com.au/tetsuo/css_help/index.html CSS: users.tpg.com.au/tetsuo/css_help/awis.css I have a vertical CSS menu using lists on my website. Everything looks ok when the page is first loaded but when I click on one of the menu items the left edge of the menu shifts to the left making the entire menu 10px wider. The div containung the menu has a left value of 10px but this seems to be ignored or overwritten when I click on a menu item. The right edge of the menu does not change. If I refresh the page it appears correctly again. Any ideas? If you view my website http://jordanmeeter.com/index you'll see how the menu displays, and how it is supposed to appear. And then if you view the website in IE, you'll notice that there are grey boxes inbetween each menu item. What is causing this? Here is the HTML: Code: <div id="navcontainer"> <ul id="navlist"> <li><a href="#" title="One">One</a></li> <li><a href="#" title="Two">Two</a></li> <li><a href="#" title="Three">Three</a></li> <li><a href="#" title="Four">Four</a></li> <li><a href="#" title="Five">Five</a></li> </ul> </div> And the CSS: Code: #navlist { padding: 0 1px 1px; margin-left: 0; font: bold 12px Verdana, sans-serif; background: gray; width: 13em; } #navlist li { list-style: none; margin: 0; border-top: 1px solid gray; text-align: left; } #navlist li a { display: block; padding: 0.25em 0.5em 0.25em 0.75em; border-left: 1em solid #38739D; background: #616161; text-decoration: none; color: #A5D3EF; } #navlist li a:link { color: #A5D3EF; } #navlist li a:visited { color: #A5D3EF; } #navlist li a:hover { border-color: #54ACEB; color: #FFF; background: #616161; } hi all! so i'm working on a redesign of our corporate site but i'm having a few problems with this menu i'm coding. http://washsq.com/test/index.html if you take a look at this there are 3 problems i can't seem to fix, no matter what i try. 1. why does the padding each menu button extend over the border for the entire div? 2. how can i get the gap between each button to be 0? 3. how can i float this entire menu to the right of the div? i've tried a lot but nothing seems to work. thanks! Hey guys, I'm trying to aling my menu in my new website. I'm trying to align the buttons on the bottom of the dark div on the top of the page. Its not working at all, and FF en IE are showing different stuff: So, in both browsers, I cant get it to work. I want the two buttons to be aligned on the bottom of the dark part, like tabs. Next to eachother. Any (bright) ideas? Thanks!

This is the one thing holding me back, since people...actually...use IE. -_- Poor souls. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks. Hello, if you go to: http://tombraiders.net/katie/Site/index.html you'll see that the items in the menu aren't spaced evenly. I've tried to put some padding underneath but it doesn't appear to be working. I would like it if they were all evenly spaced, because some of the text (where there's two lines of text) is quite cramped. The CSS file can be found here Thanks! I was working on a menu following the suckerfish tutorial at Alist Apart and I've got it working in FF but not IE6. Big surprise. There's 2 issues with IE 6: 1. The menu is sitting lower in IE than in FF. 2. The dropdowns aren't working in IE at all. I've applied the js hack and it's still not working. I can't find what I'm missing but I know it's there somewhere. Here's the url: menu Please help. Thanks. Brad hey all, I have been working on a multilevel suckerfish menu tutorial and i have the following: http://www.wildhosting.co.uk/cssMenu/menu.php However, i am having a couple of final problems. 1) In FF the grey highlight colour does not seem to fill from top to bottom on the main menu. 2) In FF, When a sub menu (for the top option of the menu) appears the top border of the submenu overlaps the bottom border of the main menu. 3) In IE, the above are ok but the submenu appears a long way from where it should, ie 5cm to the right... any help would be great, thanks RF hi, Am nearly finished my first website but this issue won't go away and it's driving me crazy. www.leehughes.co.uk As you can see I have a drop down menu at the top. The problem is a couple of my friends have reported trouble trying to access the sub menus. They can hover over the main choice but when they move the mouse down to select a link the links disappear. it's not like they can not be selected though if you press ctrl and go down then they can be selected. Am so puzzled and so close to the end it's driving me crazy.. I've just started to learn CSS, and I've picked it up without much trouble so far, but I'm stuck with a small formatting problem I'm having. Using Firefox, the spacing for the menus on the right and left side are basically where I want them to be. Link Horizontal Line Link HR and so on... The page is at http://www.mcconaha.com/csscenter.php and the CSS is at http://www.mcconaha.com/csscenter.css So I have two questions... 1) What formatting trick am I missing when it comes to the padding under text like that? I've used the padding attribute in the CSS, but it doesn't seem to do anything. The only solution I've found is to set the margins to -Xpx and use that, but then it overlaps in FF. This has to be simple and stupid, I just haven't figured it out. 2) This isn't as vital, but would be nice if I could figure out. The nav boxes are stacked down each side. If I add an item to the top box, I have to readjust the top attribute in the CSS for all boxes by whatever the increase in size of the first box was. Is there a way to align the top box, then make all the others conform down when you add something above? Thanks in advance. I'm sure I'll be posting more questions as I have them. Hello, I just started trying to learn about css and html layouts by following this tutorial he hxxp://www . subcide.com/tutorials/csslayout/page2.aspx This is my webpage: (link removed as issued is resolved) but I'm having issues making the navigation look correct (not repeat and be about 50 px down) Can someone give me a little hand. ? cheers. ps....errrr...I see nothing that I am doing wrong in the forum rules about the urls...... Hello. I'm trying to create a CSS/SPRY dropdown menu. It seems to work fine in Firefox but in IE 6 the dropdown goes horizontal until I mouse over then it goes verticle. Also how do I add black 1px border around each list item in the dropdown menu? I have tried but it tends to give the first Menu Item the border as well which doesnt work so well with the layout.

I've spent grueling hours on it and now I've probably just messed up the original code! The menu will not center, and if I get it to, either the entire background turns white, the background for the menu turns white, or something else goes wrong (mostly more IE problems). Any help would be great....it looks like I can't post a link to the site, nor can I post the enormous amount of code in here??? Can someone tell me how I can do either or simply direct you to my site? I'm not self-promoting it, I just need help! |
