CSS - Css Image Repat Lines?
I have a repeating background image, that is very much driving me crazy.
There is a line when the image repeats. I cannot figure out what the problem is. Below is an example, the image in the box is slightly shorter which is where you see the line. (URL address blocked: See forum rules) Thanks for any help. Similar TutorialsHi Guys, I'm trying to align some text along an image. The problem is, I want two lines of text to the right of the image, aligned to the top. If I put a <BR> tag between the two lines, the second line gets placed below the image. Here's what I have so far. img.top {vertical-align:text-top;} <a href="http://company.com/graphics/thumb.jpg"> <img class="top" src="http://company.com/graphics/thumb.jpg"> </a> <a href="company.com">sample text</a> <a href="company.com">second line</a> Any ideas? I've tried like every switch for the vertical-align property... Okay, I'm sort of learning as I go here. I had thought I would use a locker as the background, but then I decided to try learning how to do a liquid design (and positioning, oooo) and that kind of screwed me up because now I don't know how to do the locker sides (gap between door and frame like at top). In a fixed width, I'd put a bg graphic that spanned #container, but in a flexible width design...I'm confused. Do I have to do some stretchy hijinks (layered divs w/bg images) like I did w/the top? That would be very confusing, if so... This is the first of many questions to come, I'm sure. The horribly pedestrian design is at http://www.describe.org/projects/describe/ I have finished my transparency box backgrounds.. and, thanks to some help here.. have them working in multiple browsers.. Now, I have received a call.. that one person sees "black lines" through the boxes on the transparent boxes on the attractions and info pages.. (user is using IE and 1024x768) -I cannot recreate this problem on any machine.. is there some little strange bug that causes this on certain browsers? http://www.tkwebbiz.com/Gina2 Thanks so much.. *again*.. *Smiles* Anyone knows of a method to cause a vertical line to come all the way down ? Currently it stops where the text stops. but i want it to go all the way to the buttom of the document regardless of the text. (right now i use box border on one side) Thanks! Ok, so I've finally made a design that I think looks OK, and the one last problem that I've come across is that IE(7) is adding some space at the edges of my divs, but it looks just how it should in Firefox: http://chipchamp.awardspace.com/webtemps Look at it in firefox and IE, and you'll see what I mean..

I have found out that if I comment out the background-image lines in #header and #footer, then the ugly white lines on the sides go away -- but so does some of the background image in the middle of the header/footer. So, does anyone have any idea how to fix this? It would be a great help! If you can fix the problem for either the header or the footer, I should be able to fix it for the other, so you don't have to fix both. Thanks! [EDIT]COME ON GARY AND KRAVVITZ [/EDIT] First off, don't mind my usage of selectors. I will explain. Time to turn the tables and ask some help.. Never thought I would have to ask a CSS question (it's more logic then CSS anyway)but if you look at here you will see a sample quiz on Sitepoint (number 13) in which there are lines connecting the divs. I still have some work to do on the general layout, but all I need in that is more time. I can not edit the HTML in the body section, which is why I am using such selectors. Obviously I have to use borders to achieve this effect but I need a little guidance.

I was wondering if anyone knows how to get a space between blocks in a list. If you have list that have more that one line in a block it looks better to have gaps greater than the leading to separate them. I can't figure how to accomplish this, does anyone have any ideas. Here is my html for my tables Code: <div id="Content">
<p class='instructions'>Click a column header to sort the table.</p>
<div spry:region="jdmba">
<div spry:state="loading" class="loading">Please wait while alumni data loads…</div>
<table width="680px" class="spry" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<th scope="col" width="113px" class="sortable" spry:sort="last" id="last">Last Name</th>
<th scope="col" width="106px" class="sortable" spry:sort="first" id="first">First Name</th>
<th scope="col" width="257px" class="sortable" spry:sort="account" id="account">Company</th>

I guess I was under the impression if I made them all the same lengths and the table width the same that everything would then lineup just fine. The other thing is that on IE it is not lined up one way and on FF it's not lined up again, but it's different. I would like to upload some images to show my problem. How do I go about putting an image up for you to see what I'm talking about? When I try to insert an image it doesn't give me an option to upload an image from my machine. Thanks! CSS Validator Two lines of CSS won't validate because they are used to fix a navigation issues in IE. Without those two lines there is a huge height gap between each list element in IE. Anyway I can hide these two lines from the validator? Thanks for taking the time to read my question. I am trying to make a new page layout. I have one main box on the left [float: left;], and 3 stacked smaller boxes on the right [float: right;] I would like 2 lines joining the box on the left to the center box on the right. I'm trying to do this with a container that only has top and bottom borders. I don't know how to get the horizontal lines centered vertically. Also, the page layout works great in FF but not in IE. Not really sure why. Any suggestions on how to do this? oh and the green and red colors are only for development so they stand out.

Am I commenting lines incorrectly? If I prefix a line with two slashes // in the CSS, firefox will ignore it. IE will recognize it and perform the CSS styling. For instance: Code: table.myTable tr td
{
background-color: red;
//background-image: url('mypic.jpg');
}
The TD element will not have a background in firefox. It WILL have the background image in IE. P.S. I am using IE8 on Win7 RC1 (build 7100). Thank you I need some help. I am a relative beginner with CSS and have a problem that is eluding me. Specifically in the right-hand sidebar on this page (FriendsAcrossTheWater.org/blog), you will note that all the links are on separate lines by themselves. I do not want this behavior and I am not sure what is causing it nor what to do to correct it. Can you help? Thanks, Bob Ross Hi, I am writing a code for form: Code: private name: <input size="10" name="private_name" type="text"> last name: <input size="10" name=last_name" type="text"> I want to increase the space between the two lines I tried to use the css line-height and it did increase the vertical space between the two lines. However only in the part of the words. In the case of the two input boxes instead of more space they become "taller", I can understand the logic behind this, what I don't know is a way to increase the vertical space between the two lines that will work in the case of the input boxes as well. How can I solve this? Thank in advance When printing pages from this site http://www.sorensteensen.dk/kvl/ one or two lines disappear when the pages break. I have no idea why. Anyone knows about it? Soren Steensen I had a webpage where there were rows with three boxes on, that all floated left. After the third there was a line break and then the next line also had three boxes, etc. The boxes all have the same width, but different heights (not dramatically different). I am now wanting to allow the number of boxes on the line to vary with the width of the browser window. By removing the break every three lines this would work if all the boxes were the same height. As they are not, the box that should go onto the next line down might go down and a bit to the left before being "stopped" by a taller box. I expected this behaviour, but I'm not sure how to go further and get around it. Thanks for any ideas, Thomas Hi there, I would like to get some opinions on what would be the best way, or even a good way, to display a list of lines from a database, such as product descriptions (a link), prices (text) and buy now links. For example: Segate Hard Drive 250gb $150.00 Buy Now Maxtor Hard Drive 300gb $200.00 Buy Now etc I thought it would be best to have a <ul> with each line being an <li>. Further to this, I tried having each line as a <li> element, with each column (price, buy now etc) an <li> element, displayed inline. This actually worked well, but I had trouble doing an alternate background color thing, which I think was due to my funny css code. I gave each <li> a class selector, so that different formatting could be applied, and I had each <li> float:left; and a width, to give a column style display. Would a table be the best way to display the 3 (or more) columns? I've removed tables from the site layout, and can see how they would make sense for this, as it basically is tabular data, repeated over and over again. Or would having each line as a <p> with say each column having its own <label> possibly be best? Or some variation on of the 3, or something else all together? I realise everyone would have their preferred style and there is no 'best', 'right or wrong' way etc. I'm trying to find a way that I can work with, one that could be considered 'the norm', or 'best practise'. I haven't posted any code, but can if people need more of an idea of what I am trying to do. Cheers Scott on this page http://tampabay-online.org/cetr/artists.php I am getting lines under the images and text that are links (I do not want the line under the images). This happens in Firefox. It displays how I want it to in IE and Opera. I usually design my sites for Firefox but I really trust Opera's compliance. my css includes : Code: a img {
border: none;
}
Any ideas where the lines are coming from? Thanks! I have a few lines of text inside a nested div. Everything is fine if I leave it at that but as soon as I add some more, the whole page (wrapper) get shifted left by 9 pixels. It causes a 'jump' hen navigating between this page and the rest of the site. All of these pages are quite simple and were created from the same index page. HTML Code:
<div id="wrap">
<div id="content_awards">

Thanks, It seems that whenever I create a dashed/dotted, verticle line in CSS and view it in IE6, and scroll, the line gets all blurred and messed up. Does anyone know about this and if there is a way to fix this? Argh! I want to have a little icon as a link with a caption under it. It should be a no brainer. Like this: PHP Code: <a class="a" style="line-height: normal;" href="http://www.oregonetail.com/etail.html"><img src="/images/heart_innovation_icon.jpg" height="60" width="39" alt="heart innovation poster" border="0" />E-tail Neighbors</a> Here's the thing, there's a GAP between the graphic and the caption, and if the caption has to go an extra line because of the width constraint of the <div> that this is in, there's a huge GAP between the lines. I want the caption BUTT UP against the bottom of the picture and if the caption wraps, I want the second line of it BUTT UP against the first one NO GAP. I've been twiddling around with line-height but NOTHING I DO alters this in the slightest. BTW the "a" class is nothing but font-size: .75em my next test is to take that out and see if that helps, but I don't have a clue what is the root cause of this. This should be so ffing basic!!! Removing the "a" class didn't work. Here is a little context: Code: <div> <div style="width:88px; float:left" > <a href="https://estore.villageprofile.com/itemdetail.cfm?nItemid=546&viewby=exhibit&nexhibitID=2&subview=37" target="_blank"> <img src="/images/corv_ebook_cover.jpg" style="width:88px; height:100px" border="0" /> <span class="a" style='line-height: .5;'>FREE Town Guide</span></a> </div> <div style="float: left; width:50px;"> <a href="http://www.corvallisiba.org"><img src="/images/ciba_tiny.jpg" height="33"; width="50" alt="ciba logo" border="0" /> <span style='line-height: .5;'>CIBA Member</span></a> </div> On one of them I took the span out in case *THAT* was causing it and applied the styles to the "<a" tagged item as in the first exmple. NOTHING changed. PLEASE HELP! |
