Expanding Menus Problem In Ie	View Content

I have designed an expanding menu similiar to the one described he (URL address blocked: See forum rules)/cms/show/66.html.

The problem I am having is that I have a lot of menu items, so when it expands, the list of items is greater than the height of the containing element. In Firefox, this is not a problem, because the containing element seems to resize to show all of the items. In IE however, it does not resize. As a result, many of my items have expanded beyond the viewing region of the screen, without me being able to scroll down.

Is there any sort of way that I can to fix this, besides writing Javascript to manually change the height of the containing element every time a link is clicked?

Expanding/collapsing Menus

I am just being scripting and have been messing with this problem for several hours and still have gotten no where at all so I was hoping for some assistance.

I am attempting to make my stacked links open upon mouseover to display all the sublinks beneath the main ones and then close one the mouse is moved away from that area. I have the main ones working, as that is easy, it is those others that have me stumped. I am using outset and inset boarders to make it appear as if a drawer is being pulled out to reveal the sub-links. Any advice would be great, thank you.

Expanding List Problem

Hi all,
I really need some help figuring out this CSS issue.

I've got a client that wants to show their product list using an expanding list. This data is drawn from the database using a tool that returns an HTML table structure that I have little control over. To over come this, I used a stored procedure to format each data element returned as a span with unique name that indicates it's level and location in the product hierarchy. The lowest level of the tree are links to the actual products.

There is some javascript that toggles the display property of spans that are children of the item clicked, making them expand and collapse.

This all works fine, with one little issue. In IE 6, when the child items are all hidden (collapsed), there is some extra space (from the TD containing the links to the products I think) that creates extra space between the categories. This space varies depending on how many products are at the bottom level of the hierarchy.

I've tried everything I can to remove the space - margins, padding, borders set to 0px, etc. But I can't figure this one out.

Can anybody give a hand?

Thanks! This has been driving me nuts!

Weird Problem With Rtl'd Suckerfish Menus Using Firefox

Similar Tutorials

View Content

Hi fowks,

Normally I'm able to solve CSS issues relatively easily, well with some experimentation at least. However, this one has really got me stumped.

Basically, I'm developing a menu for a weblication which is based on the famous Suckerfish menus. Everything works ok in IE and Mozilla when in an Left-to-Right (LTR) environment, but it doesn't work quite so well when the direction is flipped to RTL. IE copes fine, but FF doesn't. The menu works itself, but the viewport doubles in size and scrolls off to the right, even though there are no elements there. Anyone got an idea as to what could be doing this? I've included the relevant files for you to trial.

Thanks for having a look. Hope you can help. It's driving me nuts.

Cheers,
John

My Expanding Css Box Isn't Expanding With My Content.

Hello,

I started off trying to find a content box that expands depending on screen res because the last one I made would break in the middle if the users screen res was over 1600px wide.

This box worked great with the screen res but now I'm trying to put content in it and my content is not expanding the box down. Instead of pushing the box lower and forcing a scroll bar. The content keeps going down past the bottom of the box and makes a scroll bar.

Any idea how I can make the box expand with my content?

ok i have this css:

Code:

#menu ul li {position: relative;}
#menu li ul {position: absolute; left:-34%; top:100%; display: none;  }
#menu li:hover ul, #menu li.over ul{ display: block;  background-color:#000000; width:150%;}

this works for menu & submenu, however i copied it and tried to use it for sub-sub menu with NO LUCK.
Code:

#menu li ul li ul, #menu li ul li ul li  {position:fixed;display:none; left:150em; top:0em; width:100%; }
#menu li ul li:hover ul,  #menu li ul li.over ul {display:block; }

i did try something and got the sub-sub menu to "work" but when i hovered over the main menu, both sub, sub-sub menu were showing instead of just the sub menu showing. (obv i wanted to show sub-sub menu only when the person hover over the li containing the subsub menu) sorry if it is confusing.

Css Expanding Background In Div

Similar Tutorials

Hi, I am trying to make a website for a friend that scales to fit most monitors. The website is very image heavy and I have a navigation bar on the left side that lines up with the background on the right. I haven't made a webpage for awhile so I don't know a lot about CSS.

This is what I have so far. It almost works, but the background on the right will not expand to fit the full div, only goes up to the content that I put inside the Div. The background also doesn't appear to shrink when I scale the window size.

HTML CODE:
Code:

<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css"/>

<title>Test Page</title>
</head>

<body>

<div id="sample-container" align="center">


<div id="header"> <img src="images/header.jpg" width="1647" height="147" / id="headerbar"></div>

<div id="nav"> <img src="images/navbar.jpg" width="413" height="776" / id="navbar"></div>

<div id="content"> <img src="../../../Pictures/Misc/101_0138.JPG" width="527" height="428" />
</div>

<div id="footer"></div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

CSS CODE:
Code:

#header
{
	height: auto;
	background-color: #666;
}
#nav
{
	float: left;
	width: 25%;
	height: auto;
	background-color: #999;
	margin-bottom: 10px;
}
#content
{
	float: left;
	width: 75%;
	height: auto;
	background: url(images/mountain.jpg);
	background-repeat: no-repeat;
	margin-bottom: 10px;
}
#footer
{
	clear: both;
	height: 50px;
	background-color: #666;
	margin-bottom: 10px;
}
#headerbar
{
	height:auto;
	width:100%;
}
#navbar
{
	height:auto;
	width:100%;
}

If anyone knows a way to expand the background to fill the div and scale down when the div scales is size, that would be great.
I was also thinking that maybe I could put the the navigation bar and the background image on the page and not as an background. Put those both in a div and have a floating div on the right aligned over the top of the background that contains the page content. If anyone could give any help with a solution it would be appreciated. Thanks.

Div Width Expanding?

Similar Tutorials

View Content

Hi there

I have a container DIV that nests 4 DIVs one on top of the next (logo, navigation, content and footer, all the same widths).

If there is a single paragraph (or small amount) of text in the content DIV of the page, the page looks fine.

However, if there is a large amount of text in the content DIV of the page, the width gets pushed out slightly. IE5 is fine. Firefox and Opera are the problem.

Note: I have left the height of the content DIV blank as it will be of varied size. When I set a height of say, 500px, the page looks fine (but because a background colour is needed for the DIV, it doesn't appear as I intended it to).

Any ideas to why this is happening?

Thanks in advance :-)

Expanding A Column

Hey guys,

I've got a two column layout, and I want both columns to be the same height inside the wrapper. Ussually when I do this sort of thing I have a repeating background image or something so it makes it appear they are both the same height, except this template is using rounded corners, so a repeating background won't work.

Code:

#wrapper{
	width:962px;
	margin: 25px auto;
}
#mainContent{
	width:735px;
	background-color: #F4FEFE;
	padding:0px;
	border:0px;
	float:left;
}
#rightColumn{
	background-color: #F4FEFE;
	width:207px;
	height:100%;
	min-height:100%;
	float:left;
	margin-left:20px;
}

Click here to see what I'm talking about... I want that right column to match the height of the main content div.

Would this only be possible using JavaScript or is there a CSS solution?

Expanding Boxes

hi,

Im making a site, and i decided to use CSS instead of tables. I have used basic CSS before, but it gets abit harder when i start making boxes etc.

Here is my code so far -

layout.css - (one that gets included on each page)

Code:

@import "style.css";
	
body {
	margin:10px 10px 0px 10px;
	padding:0px;
}
	
#leftcontent {
	position: absolute;
	left:10px;
	top:50px;
	width:200px;
	background:#fff;
	border:1px solid #000;
}

#centercontent {
	
	background:#fff;
 		margin-left: 199px;
 		margin-right:199px;
	border:1px solid #000;		
	voice-family: "\"}\"";
	voice-family: inherit;
  	margin-left: 201px;
  	margin-right:201px;
}

#shoutbox {
	position: absolute;
	right:10px;
	top:50px;
	width:200px;
	background:#fff;
	border:1px solid #000;
}

#rightcontent {
	position: absolute;
	right:10px;
	top:50px;
	width:200px;
	background:#fff;
	border:1px solid #000;
}
	
#banner, #footer {
  background:#fff;
	height:40px;
	border-top:1px solid #000;
	border-left:1px solid #000;
	border-right:1px solid #000;
	voice-family: "\"}\"";
	voice-family: inherit;
	height:39px;
}

#footer {
  background:#fff;
	height:40px;
	border-bottom:1px solid #000;
	border-left:1px solid #000;
	border-right:1px solid #000;
	voice-family: "\"}\"";
	voice-family: inherit;
	height:39px;
}

#banner h1 {
	font-size:16px;
	padding:10px 10px 0px 10px;
	margin:0px;
}
	
#shoutbox, #rightcontent p {
	font-size:10px
}

style.css - text formatting etc.

Code:

body {
	font:	12px/1.2 Tahoma;
	background:#ddd;
	padding:0px;
	margin:0px;
}
	
a {
	text-decoration:none;
	font-weight:bold;
	color:#c00;
}
	
pre {
	font-size:11px;
	color:blue;
}
	
ol {
	margin-right:40px;
}
li {
	margin-bottom:10px;
}

p,h1,pre {
	margin:0px 10px 10px 10px;
}
		
h1 {
	font-size:14px;
	padding-top:10px;
}

it produces a good layout, with a header, 3 coloums and a footer. whoever, the boxes expand at different rates and the footer doesnt move down. the header also doesnt expand. i know how i can fix this, but i dont know how to fix it without making it so that its locked at a resolution. i would like the site to exapand as the window is made larger.

here is an image of what i get -

and this is what i am aiming to acheive -

as you can see, i want all the boxes to be the same length, which is defined by the size of the largest box. also, i want to create 2 or more boxes on the left, only the bottom of which gets made longer. on the first image you cannot see the extra box because it is covered by the other one :-/

i would be greatful for any help you guys can provide me

thanks,

Help With Expanding Div With Content

I have started creating a new DIV layout for my website but can't seem to get it to function correctly. I finally got the DIVs to expand with whatever content is in them, but now they will only span to the height of the window and hide the rest of the content instead of expanding further and just making the IE window scroll. Maybe one of you guys can help me out? Here is the test page:

well apparently I can't post the url, so I guess I'll just "say" it.

Expanding Layout

Hi all,

I have a site where I have several divs that stack on top of each other for layout purposes and they fill the entire width of the screen.

In the div that contains the content, I'm finding a rare case where a table appears that's so wide, it is off the edge of the content element.

I wanted to do overflow:auto so that it wouldn't mess up the layout but the customer wants the layout to expand with the content.

Since all these divs sit on top of each, they aren't really interacting with the div that has the content in it. Is the only way to make those expand to use JavaScript to detect the width and adjust on the fly or is there a better way to do it?

I'll be happy to supply some code if you all need me to but its a lot so I'll hold off on that for now.

Expanding Height Div

Hello.

Trying to construct a page with vertical expansion on both of two nested DIVs. Left column is primarily text which varies in length. Right column is a navigation/contact panel that is mostly fixed height, but want ability to drop in objects and expand vertically on some pages.

I have tried to background image in container DIV, but I am still getting the content breaking out of the bottom of the DIV. Any other approaches? Min-height (could not get that to work either). Ideally I would like for these to have the same height. Not shading, so it doesn't need to be exact.

Here's a sample of code (w/o all the junk).

Two Layers Expanding Simultaneously

Similar Tutorials

View Content

I want to have a CSS layer that is a certain height, unless the content exceeds this height, in which case the layer will automatically expand. I have already done this before so that part is not the problem. The problem is I want to have another layer under this one. You will not be able to see this second layer if the content on the first layer does not exceed the pre-determined height of the first layer (it will have a different z-index). But I will have the background on the first layer set to no-repeat so that when the first layer is automatically expanded, you will see the second layer, which has a different background (that is its only purpose). However, I'm not sure how to make it so the second layer also expands automatically along with the first layer. Can someone help me? I hope this made sense.
