CSS - Getting Rid Of Space Between Headers
Similar TutorialsIn the attached gif, you should be able to see exactly what I mean, if I don't explain it well enough. I have a containing block, #content_main, defined as such: Code: #content_main
{
margin-left: 170px;
padding: .5cm .25cm 50px;
}
Headers (h1, h2, h3, etc) are used inside #content_main and are defined like this: Code: h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6
{
font-family: georgia, serif;
border-bottom: 1px solid #009;
}
If you look at the attached gif, you'll see the problem. The top one is what happens. It extends the border-bottom to the width of the containing block, even though it places the text correctly. The second one "Something Else" is what I want it to look like. I edited that with Fireworks. Since it renders the same in Firefox and IE, I figure it's my code that's wrong. Any thoughts? MPEDrummer Hello, I am working on a web site with a two column layout, "Content" on the left and "Sidebar" on the right. Sidebar 1) Sidebar is divided into sections (div). Each section has header. Content Content can display the following data (each is a different page): 2) In HomePage.html a list of blog articles is displayed. Each blog article has a title. 3) In ShowArticle.html a specific article is displayed (Title, Body, Tags). 4) In Documents.html a list of documents is displayed but in this case the page has a title and a subtitle. For example: Documents here you can find all the documents you need. 5) In Contact.html a title with subtitle is displayed just as in (4). After the title and subtitle there is only paragraphs with the contacts. So basically that's it ... I am trying to figure the correct way to use <h1>, <h2>, etc. The text font, weight and color is always the same ... what changes is the size. For example, if in HomePage the Post Header could be <h1> because there is no page title, in Documents there is a page title and a subtitle (should be this a paragraph? it's more like a description phrase then a section separator). So in Documents each Document could have <h3> ... And if there is a Page Title (h1) then should side bar have <h2>? I suppose it is more correct to be h1.Sidebar. And in ShowArticle I am displaying one article. Should I use the <h1> in the title? Then it would be the same tag then in Sidebar section ... I have been looking in a few web sites and blogs and they differ ... Anyway, I am just trying to make this right ... Any help is welcome. Thanks, Miguel This may not belong here. But it's about a CSS file, so I'll explain: I have css files in that are not having any effect. Using Firebug, I think I've narrowed the problem down to a server-side issue. Here are my headers: Request: Host: host User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.6) Gecko/20100625 Firefox/3.6.6 Accept: text/css,*/*;q=0.1 Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5 Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 Keep-Alive: 115 Connection: keep-alive Referer: https:/host/page Cookie: ...........

Other css files work. For example (main.css): Request: Host: host User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.6) Gecko/20100625 Firefox/3.6.6 Accept: text/css,*/*;q=0.1 Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5 Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 Keep-Alive: 115 Connection: keep-alive Referer: https://host/page Cookie: .....

I've tried adding "AddType text/css .css" to the httpd.conf file. But that had no effect. Any suggestions? I have this problem making this menu and I have multible <h1></h1> on each title of the of stuff. It seems that the text gets bigger and bigger then when its to big then the text in the <h1> goes back smaller. Is there a way to fix this? Here is my code. Code: h1 { font-family: cursive, sans serif;
font-weight: normal; font-size: 200%; font-style: cursive;}
EDIT:The strange thing is that I know of this wird effect only happens in IE. Thank you, sorry to be a bother but I do want to have a good first impression on my site that I am working for Ernies Bar & Grill at my town. I've been trying to get all the space out of IE, tried line-height and all of that, and nothing. Any hack to take out all of the space gaps so I can later on put some small margin? Thanks in advance In the following code...why is there a space between the two div's?? Code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<style>
#header { background-color: cadetblue; }
#footer { background: blue; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="header">
<p>This is my header.</p>
</div>
<div id="footer">
<p>This is my footer.</p>
</div>
</body>
</html>
If I remove the <p></p>'s from each sentence the spacing disappears. If I add a "border: 1px solid black;" to each style the spacing disappears. I don't want to know how to make it go away. I want to know why it's there? I mean shouldn't the paragraphs be fully enclosed inside the div's? Such that no spacing should appear between the div's? Any insight anyone might care to share with me would be most appreciated. Thanks. Carlos We have a table with a lot of data in it that has both horizontal and vertical scrolling. What I would like to do is keep the header row fixed in one position when the user scrolls vertically but i want it to scroll with the page when it scrolls horizontally. I've thought of a couple potential methods: position:fixed which doesnt seem to work. My other is actually making the header a bunch of divs that are drawn via javascript by looping over the cells and using the offset left of each to determine the width of the headers. Can anyone think of a better method? Ok guys, I'm hoping someone can help me. I am a complete newbie to CSS and web site construction in general. I have a left vertical navigation bar made up of graphics in a div tag that is set to float on the left. I'm having difficulty with the graphics, they have white spaces in between them when viewed in IE. They are supposed to butt up against one another. I have tried setting the margin and padding in that div to 0. I have also seen in other forums where the <li> tag can be placed on the previous line to fix this problem in IE. I haven't even viewed the page on any other browsers yet, can someone help me please? Thanks so much! vonatah I have a couple of divs at the very top of my page spanning the width of the page. In IE-8 the page is displayed as I would like, with no spacing at the top margin above the first div. In FF, there is a giant space about 50 px high. I need to get rid of this space. Below is my css for the top-most div, body, and the html... any ideas? Code:
body {
margin-top: 0px;
font-family: Arial,Verdana,Helvetica;
font-size: 12px;
}
div#top {
margin-top: 0px;
float: left;
background-image: url(../img/logo.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
width: 100%;
height: 42px;
}
<div id="top"></div>
<div style="margin-bottom:40px">
<script type="text/javascript">javascript menu code</script>
</div>
At some point, something I did caused my website to have around 400 pixels of white space above it. My site is very simple but I can't seem to figure out the cause. I'm hoping someone can take a look and figure it out. Thanks for any help, Chris HTML CODE: http://www.bottomtimedesign.com CSS CODE: Code:

http://cirqueamongus.bdigia.com/main/ http://cirqueamongus.bdigia.com/x.css Page is valid XHTML1.1 and CSS. However, IE 6 causes a space to appear between my header div and my menu divs. Firefox and opera display the page just fine thanks for the help. Also, if you're using IE Mac, it might display funny there, as well. If you can give me information on what's happening there, I would also appreciate it. Hi all, after my last query it was suggested that my use of absolute positioning for every element was not necessary. I should go with the flow. So I copied a basic page structure and twiddled a little. Here is the result so far html link css link A couple of questions. 1. Would you say I'm on the right track, or should I be looking at a different style structure? 2. The page appears in ie to have gaps around the elements. In Mozilla it looks like I hoped it would look. How to close up gaps in ie. I'm trying padding, margin, negative values etc, Checking in the morning in hope of miraculous fix. No luck so far. Any help, advice appreciated. Thanks Solar.. Do ids take up space on a page if there is no content within them and no size specified for them, what about classes, paragraphs? Something like so: Code: <div id="one"></div> or <div class="two></div> <p></p> <p class ="three"></p> etc... In other words, would there be a obvious space where one of these styling markers was placed on the page? Hi everyone. I have a header image and directly below it the div that holds my navigation. In FF it works great, but in IE I get about a 5px space inbetween the header image and the navigation div. The navigation div is colored so it's really easy to tell where it stops and starts in IE. Here's my CSS code: Code:
body {
background-image: url(images/bgshadow.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
background-position: 50% 0;
text-align: center;
margin: 0 0;
padding: 0 0;
}
#content {
width: 738px;
margin-top: 0;
margin-right: auto;
margin-bottom: 0;
margin-left: auto;
padding: 0 0;
vertical-align: top;
}
#header {
width: 738px;
margin: 0 0;
padding: 0 0;
}
#nav {
width: 738px;
height: 25px;
margin: 0 0;
padding: 0 0;
background-color: #86462F;
vertical-align: top;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 12px;
color: #fff;
}
#nav ul {
width: auto;
float: right;
margin: 5px 0 0 0;
padding: 0 0;
}
#nav ul li {
margin: 0 25px 0 0;
padding: 0 0;
list-style-type: none;
display: inline;
}
and my markup: Code: <div id="content"> <div id="header"> <img src="images/header.jpg" width="738" height="100" /></div> <div id="nav"> <ul> <li>Home</li> <li>Register</li> <li>Go Play!</li> </ul> </div> I've tested the white-space bug in windows IE (taking out all of the white-space in the markup) but that only had a marginal effect on the list. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks, -Brian http://www.zombiepolitics.com Just when I thought I had this down .. I dont. I have a CSS layout .. there are two main divs side by side, the navigation rests at the top of the right div. problem is in IE 6 there is so much extra space at the top that my navigation doesnt line up with my header .. in FF its no problem. What is the workaround for this? Hello, im working on styling an unordered list into a file tree. So far, so good. However, do you see that space that is showing in between each <li>, between the T (elbow2.gif) image, its very unwanted. Code:
/* -- FILE BROWSER -- */
#browseFiles {
padding: 0 0 0 20px;/* 000pix handles indent */
}
#browseFiles ul {
font: 10px sans-serif;
color: #000;
list-style:none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#browseFiles li {
/*display:compact;
height: 18px;*/
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
#browseFiles .fileDiv {
height: 18px;
background: url(images/elbow2.gif) no-repeat scroll 0 0;
}
#browseFiles .fileLink {
padding: 0 0 0 13px;
margin: 3px 0 0 0;
}
#browseFiles .dir {
list-style:none;
font: bold 10px sans-serif;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
#browseFiles .file {
padding: 0 0 0 3px;
margin:0;
}
Heres the html Code:
<div id='browseFiles'>
<ul>
<li class='file'>
<div class='fileDiv'>
<a class='fileLink'>
<img class'fileIcon' src='images/file.gif' />
</a>
</div>
</li>
<li class='file'>
<div class='fileDiv'>
<a class='fileLink'>
<img class'fileIcon' src='images/file.gif' />
</a>
</div>
</li>
<li class='file'>
<div class='fileDiv'>
<a class='fileLink'>
<img class'fileIcon' src='images/file.gif' />
</a>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
Thank you for the help in advanced. Hello, I have a table formatted by CSS within which there are two styles of text, headers and content. I have the content formatted using a class (conftabledetail), with the statement: .conftabledetail {font-size:10px;} I did that to make the content more compact and distinguishable from the headers. I would like to force a space between the paragraphs of content without using a <br> tag. I read that there is an "adjacent selector" which can be used to locate adjacent tags and apply a style, for example p + p {margin-top:1em;}, which would put a 1em space between adjacent paragraphs. Apparently this selector does not work when used against a subclass, because I can't get this statement to work: p + p.conftabledetail {margin-top:1em;} I CAN get this statement to work: p.conftabledetail {margin-top:1em;} But that's not what I want to do. Anyone have any ideas as to what I need to change or do differently? It would also be nice to do this with a <div> tag so I don't have to repeat the class identifier on every <p> tag... Thanks, Chris How can I remove the space between an image bottom and a td in Mozilla? <!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' lang='en'> <head><title></title> <style type='text/css'> td,img { padding:0px; border-width:0px; margin:0px; } </style> <script type='text/javascript'> </script> </head><body> <table border='1'><tr><td> <img src='http://www.kallery.net/Q_strg/kallery/85_153_1_1155924038.jpg' /> </td></tr></table> </body></html> Hi all, Great forum page with problem, good in firefox, bad in ie, http://www.central12.com/photosmain1.htm The images as displayed in ie appear with a small gap at the bottom of the picture. I have condensed the code, can't figure it, but using lists to layout images is new to me. Would have used individual divs previously, but have seen this technique used and it seems better, less code. I think i'm just missing a simple fix, as images and boxes are set to the same dimensions. The code in the example differs from the code on the uploaded page, been on it for a week still trying to suss it.
