CSS - Ie Doesn't Seem To Want To Show My Background Images Lately?
Hey everyone,
I was trying to create a design for a friend, so I started it in Firefox, I got halfway done, went and checked it in IE7, and the background image isn't showing. Here is my code along with a screen shot of it in Firefox and IE7.

The layout has some complex elements, but strangely the one thing that doesn't work is the background-color that I am setting using the "body" selector. It works great on Firefox and IE (imagine that!) but not on Safari or Chrome, which are Webkit-based. It is supposed to have a gray background, but those two browsers just show the default white. The following is the code I'm using in the body selector.. not much places where something could be going wrong. css Code: Original - css Code body { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; background-color: #333333; }
The link to the page is he http://montanlaw.com I don't understand why things aren't working... it seems to me like background-color should be a very well-supported property that shouldn't have much variance between browsers. Anyone have any tips? Note: I tried validating the code to see if there was an error there - however, it's all valid except two little (unrelated) things that I could easily fix if I needed to. Thanks in advance for any help, chip19 I am working on this page: http://concrete-creative.com/pp/products.html and the problem I am having is that I want the rest of the "flower" image to show behind the content area... I have it set as the background image of that table, but it's not showing up. Here's an image of how it is supposed to appear: http://concrete-creative.com/pp/pp_sample.jpg Can anyone direct me on how to work this out? Thank you! (I posted this is the HTML forum too but can't figure out how to move it, so I just posted it here too) <body> <div id="wrapper" style=" vertical-align:middle;"> <div id="border-top"> <div id="border-left"> <div id="border-right"> <div id="border-bottom"> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </body> body { background-color:#5E362C; margin: 0 0 0 0; } #wrapper { width: 828px; height: 558px; position:relative; left: 50%; margin-left:-414px; } #border-top { background-image: url(../Webdesign/MIRAGE services1_r2_c2.jpg); background-position:top left; background-repeat:no-repeat; width: 828px; height: 558px; } #border-left { background-image: url(../Webdesign/MIRAGE services1_r3_c2.jpg); background-position:top left; background-repeat:no-repeat; width: 828px; height: 558px; margin-top:20px; } #border-right { background-image: url(../Webdesign/MIRAGE services1_r3_c18.jpg); background-position:top right; background-repeat:repeat-y; width: 828px; height: 557px; margin-top:-20px; margin-bottom:20px; } #border-bottom { background-image: url(../Webdesign/MIRAGE services1_r10_c3.jpg); background-position:bottom right; background-repeat:no-repeat; width: 828px; height: 558px; margin-top:-1px; } Thanks for the help ! I can't get the css to show the top border http://www.****copz.com Code: #navlist { padding: 3px 0; margin-left: 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #000; font: bold 12px Verdana, sans-serif; } #navlist li { list-style: none; margin: 0; display: inline; } #navlist li a { padding: 3px 0.5em; margin-left: 3px; border: 1px solid #000; border-bottom: none; background: #FF5555; text-decoration: none; } #navlist li a:link { color: #000; } #navlist li a:visited { color: #000; background: #0033FF; } #navlist li a:hover { color: #000; background: #7575FF; border-color: #227; } #navlist li a#current { background: white; border-bottom: 1px solid white; border-top: 1px solid #000; } a:link { color: #000; text-decoration: none;} a:visited { color: #0033FF; text-decoration: none; } A:active{ color: #0000ff; text-decoration: none;} A:hover{ color: #FF0000; text-decoration: none; background-color: #ffffff;} I don't have much experience using CSS, but I flatter myself that I can at least code a sheet which is readable by my HTML pages. I've uploaded a stylesheet for my page at http://noblecarrots.com/index.php at http://noblecarrots.com/stylesheet.css rather than coding CSS in the HTML itself as I had done previously. The problem is that, during the transition, all of my styling has vanished. See for yourself - my links all check out, my CSS validates, and everything else seems fine, but you're still staring at Times New Roman and whitespace on my homepage. If this turns out to be down to a typo or something similar, then I apologize in advance. I can only imagine how much of that kind of canooli you get on this forum. Oh, and in case it makes things easier, here's my CSS. I think you'll agree it's just fine: Code: body { font-family: Garamond, Georgia, serif; background-color: #c9c299; color: #41383C; width: 30em; text-align: justify; margin: auto; } img:link { border: none; } a:link { color: #41383C; text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; } a:visited { color: #41383C; text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; } a:hover { text-decoration: underline; font-weight: bold; } a:active { color: #41383C; } .logo { width: 16em; float: left; margin: auto; position: relative; top: 0px; } .about { width: 13em; font-size: 0.9em; float: right; margin: auto; position: relative; top: 15px; text-align: left; } .briefs { position: relative; text-align: justify; line-height: 100%; margin: auto; } .quote { width: 25em; text-align: justify; line-height: 100%; } ul { width: 22em; text-align: justify; line-height: 125%; } .star { text-align: center; line-height: 100%; word-spacing: 2em; font-size: 2em; font-family: "MS Gothic"; } .footer { width: 40em; font-size: 0.9em; } .footer a:link, .footer a:visited, .footer a:hover, .footer a:active { font-weight: bold; } h2 { font-size: 3.75em; line-height: 5%; } h3 { font-size: 1.25em; } Hey everyone, I am making a design for my own pleasure, and for some reason IE7 does not even show the menu.

I can't seem to figure out what the issue is, it seems like it should work just fine, any ideas? Thanks! problem solved - it seemed that the inside box was too close to the outer one, so i gave it some padding and the border-line now shows. weird is, that it is now a little bigger than the other element, but i can live with 2px ... for now hi folks, i really dislike IE i make the design for my webstore ... still i only want to use floats (no tables or other positioning) ... i am slowly advancing ... right now i am pretty much stopped in my tracks, because IE does not display the right side of 2 of my boxes (those are very similar in layout). the boxes concerning have an outer DIV and an inner DIV. the outer has a specified width in px and overflow:hidden (which has helped keeping the width). the content is other DIVs and text. note that a similar box with a UL in it does indeed display the thin borderline all the way around ..... and this is what drives me nuts. LINK concerning boxes are the shopping cart on the top right and the mailing list box on the bottom left note that the similar costructed box with the navigational menue in it above the mailinglist box does display the borderline .... oh, and in firefox everything is fine of course on a side note .... in IE; hovering over any hover item results in the bdy text losing its background color?! i am not even challenging that one yet it would be great if someone could help me out here Code: this is for the shopping cart box: #header_right { color: black; font-size: 80%; background-color: white; margin-top: 0.5em; margin-right: 1.5em; padding-left: 10px; width: 150px; height: auto; overflow: hidden; float: right; } #header_right_content { color: #fff; background-color: #f8f2dc; padding-top: 0.5em; padding-bottom: 0.6em; height: auto; border: solid 1px gray; } I applied the following class to the default (selected) <option> tag. Shows up great in Mozilla, doesn't apply in IE. Where I'm I missing the boat? Any tips appreciated. .form {font-weight: normal; font-size: 14px; text-align: center; border-bottom: 1px solid #999999;} Hello! I am learning CSS on my own which is an authentic crusade So i decided to start with blogs since i have one of my own and i want to give it a personal look. I decided to download some blog templates available in the web to open and see how they work, somehow i managed to understand what i wanted but there are somethings that i don't understand. I decided to stick with this blog template but i came to realize that it doesn't show correctly in IE, the side bar color doesn't show and the font size is bigger. I wonder why that happens...can someone tell me? Quote: http:// nicetobehere-btemplates.blogspot.com/ And since the code is too big to post here you can download it from here Quote: http:// btemplates.com/2009/01/16/nice-to-be-here/ I will apreciate very much if you can help me with this!! The layout I have going is a bit difficult to explain. Here's a diagram.. The area of importance is the header. The content and main head area are centered. The area to the left and right of the header are a <div>. However, as you can see, the background image on the left is different than the one on the right. I'm having difficulty making this work. the images can be stretched horizontally without a problem, but the two sides must meet in the middle beneath the header. I hope this makes sense. What I've got to do, I think, is tell the background image of the underlying <div> to stretch to 100%, and make this image 300px wide or so including both sides of the image and a split. The split would hide behind the header. I can't find a method to stretch the background image, though. Does anybody know of a better way, or a way to achieve this method at all without getting into completely different layouts? Thanks in advance for any assistance/suggestions. I am wanting to display an image as a background. However that isn't working for me. So can someone please help me solve this problem? Thanks in advance. This is the css code that I am working with: Code: body { background-image: url(cattle_bg.jpg); background-attachment: fixed; background-repeat: no-repeat; margin: 0px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; } This is the link for that css code which is the htm file: Code: <link href="/images/styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> Okay the backgroundimage "content-header" does not display in firefox for the <div id="contentWrapper"> tag.

I have a lot of programming experience (C++, Java, Python) but very little HTML/CSS experience. I'm learning Django right now and am having trouble with my presentation. I'm hoping someone here can help me. I'm not sure how many here know Django so I'll try and skip over as much of that as I can. I have a somewhat cookie-cutter CSS stylesheet I'm using so I can learn the environment. Below are snippets of my .html files and .css file. base.html Code: <body> <div id="header"> <div id="title"> <div id="innertitle"> {% block header %}{% endblock %} </div> </div> </div> index.html Code: {% block header %} <h1>Signal Auctions</h1> {% endblock %} main.css Code: #header { margin:0 auto; } #title { padding:20px 20px; margin:0 auto; background:#333 url('images/titlebg.png') repeat-x scroll 50% 50%; } #innertitle { width:90%; margin:0 auto; } h1 { font-size:3em; padding-left:10px; } The problem is that I can't seem to get the image images/titlebg.png to display. I don't think it's an issue with pathing - I have other images in the same location that do display and I use the same method to call them. Any thoughts? Good Day, I am trying to figure out why my CSS Rollover images are not showing up in FireFox, but do in IE. Below are links to my pages and CSS, and if anyone can give me some suggestions, ideas I would be very grateful!!! Brook http://www.karmaimports.net/centercss.htm http://www.karmaimports.net/cssrollover.css what is should look like: http://www.karmaimports.net/center.htm I'm creating an email template for all mail that I'll send to my users. I'm trying to make it work for as many mail clients as possible, so I'm only using inline css. Even with that, it appears that gmail doesn't support the background-image property. I have a table defined as Code: <table style="background:#666666; background-image:url(http://{$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']}/images/bg_grad.gif); background-repeat:repeat-x; width:100%; height:100%; margin:0px; " cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> ... This works fine for yahoo mail. With gmail, it will render "background", but as soon as I try and add an image, it ignores all of the styling. Has anybody run into this problem? Any suggestions on a solution would be greatly appreciated. Just curious as to what i'm doing wrong here, its the #content block that isn't working. Any help that could be provided would be greatly appreciated. css Code: Original - css Code body { font-family: Verdana, Tahoma, Arial; color: #FFFFFF; font-size: 11px; } .bg { width: 100%; position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; z-index: 5000; } #pagecontent { width: 800px; height: 600px; position: relative; z-index: 6000; margin: auto; } #content { width: 800px; background-color: #999999; } #latesttut { width: 381px; height: 150px; border: 3px solid #FFFFFF; float: left; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px; } #latestblog { width: 381px; height: 150px; border: 3px solid #FFFFFF; float: right; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px; } #seperator { width: 800px; height: 5px; float: left; } #latestnews { width: 784px; height: 213px; border: 3px solid #FFFFFF; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px; float: left; } #footer { width: 800px; position: absolute; bottom: 0; } .nav { background-image: url('images/blank1pxl.jpg'); } a:link { text-decoration: none; color: #0066CC; font-size: 9px; } a:hover { text-decoration: underline; color: #0066CC; font-size: 9px; } a:visited { text-decoration: none; color: #0066CC; font-size: 9px; } a:active { text-decoration: none; color: #0066CC; font-size: 9px; }
