CSS - Lists! Nested And Containing Images

I can't seem to find any issues of this on the web, or maybe I'm not doing a correct search. here's my problem.

I'm creating a horizontal menu with an unordered list <ul> with each <li> tag using a background image. My problem is, in IE (both ie6 & 7), the menu seems to display having a staggered cascading effect. Firefox works great as usual...

see screenshot at http://clubsix1.com/images/cascade_effect.png

Here's my CSS code:

Code:

#masthead ul#mystuffnav {
	padding:0;
	margin:0;
	width:334px;
}
#masthead ul#mystuffnav li {
	float:left;
	margin-bottom:1px;
	clear: both;
}

/* Fancy Buttons, My Stuff Nav */
#masthead ul#mystuffnav a.button,
#masthead ul#mystuffnav a.button:link,
#masthead ul#mystuffnav a.button:visited {
    padding:3px 7px 5px;
    text-decoration:none;
    outline:none;
	/*display:block; OQO */
    font-size:10px;
    float:left;
    text-align:center;
    margin:0 1px 0 0;
    line-height:1em;
}

Help is GREATLY appreciated! =)

Hi... How do I break a single list into multiple columns? The page I'm talking about is http://jordanmeeter.com/?page=links. I'd like to bring the "Other" category up over to the right, next to the rest of the categories.

I tried

Code:

	float: left;
    	width: 200px;

And that kind of did what I want... Not really, though.

I want to have a list that each listed item has a different image, how can i do this.

Thanks

Okay... WTF is that about? I added another article to the "Articles" list... And it moved the section below it down.

My CSS for #noindent :

Code:

.noindent {
  	float: left;
  	width: 200px;
  	margin-left: 0px;
  	margin-top: 5px;
  	padding-left: 0px;
  	list-style-type: none;
  	}

Does anyone know how I can fix the gaps on this block level lists?

It looks fine on firefox and other browsers but ie6 and ie7 add gaps in between the lists.

Hi,

I'm trying to build a simple menu for a layout in XHTML/CSS. I was thinking about having a list and then giving it a style, such as:

Code:

<ul class="menu">
<li id="menu_home">Home</li>
<li id="menu_about">About Us</li>
<li id="menu_contact">Contact Us</li>
</ul>

But then I would like the CSS to display the "li" items horizontally rather than vertically, and without bullets. Also, having the "Home", "About Us", etc, text replaced with images (CSS). Can this be done? I would really appreciate any guidance with this or any other ideas.

Thanks,
Ralph

Hey i am trying to create a navigation bar that uses hover lists so that there are a number of links and when these are hovered over, the provide links which are under this section. I have sourced code and used this and it all works apart from that the hovered options are about 0.8cm apart and the first is over the top of the original list, which still needs to be seen.

The code for the CSS is below;
#navmenu{
width: 100%;
float: left;
background: #900;
height: 100%;
}
#navmenu ul{
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 120px;
float: left;
}
#navmenu li{
margin: 3px 0px 3px 0px;
padding: 3px 0px 3px 0px;
display: inline
}
#navmenu a{
font: bold 15px Calibri;
display: block;
border-width:1px;
border-style:solid;
border-color:#F90;
margin: 0;
padding: 2px 3px;
color: #FC0;
background: #900;
text-decoration:none;
}
#navmenu a:hover{
color:#FFF;
background:#C30;
}
#navmenu li {
position:relative;
}

#navmenu ul ul {
position:absolute;
top: 0;
left: 100%;
}
div#navmenu ul ul{
display: none;
}
div#navmenu ul li:hover ul
{display: block;}
div#menu ul ul,
div#menu ul li:hover ul ul,
div#menu ul ul li:hover ul ul
{display: none;}

div#menu ul li:hover ul,
div#menu ul ul li:hover ul,
div#menu ul ul ul li:hover ul
{display: block;}

body {
behavior: url(csshover.htc);
}

[if IE]>
<style type="text/css" media="screen">
body {
behavior: url(csshover.htc);
font-size: 100%;
}

#menu ul li {float: left; width: 100%;}
#menu ul li a {height: 1%;}

#menu a {
font: bold 0.7em/1.4em arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
}
</style>
<![endif]

and the code for the section of the webpage (btw it is linked in the header)

<div id="navmenu">
<ul>
<li><a href="index.html" title="Home">Home</a></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><a href="products.html" title="Products">Products</a>
<ul>
<li><a href="rubber.html" title="Rubber">Rubber</a></li>
<li><a href="struts.html" title="Struts">Struts</a></li>
<li><a href="hardware.html" title="Hardware">Hardware</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>

Thanks help would be appreciated.

Hi:
The return key works fine in HTML lists (for example those in Outlook editor).
However, in normal HTML, the return key double spaces inappropriately outside of lists (and between lists, too).
Outside of lists, Outlook replaces <p> with <br> to get wordprocessor-like action from the return key, but this doesn't isolate the "new" line/paragragh from the preceeding text, like <p> does. So, attempts to format the "new" paragraph affects the "previous" paragraph.
Is there any way to have <p> behave differently inside and outside of lists (maybe making the double-spaced lines half the usual height, or some other approach?
Thanks,
Terry

Hi, can anyone give me a hand with customizing my lists? I am trying to do something like here, http://www.microsoft.com/, but with a semi-transparent background in the nav bar. It works if I have borders around the links, which is fine if I had a solid bg as I can hide them, but being semi-transparent I have a problem, and when I remove them it causes a shift when moving over a link.

Any ideas??

i am trying to get the list to show over two lines like so (using _ as multiple spaces get turned on to one)

how do i get both centered.

_____item1____item2____item3
item4____item5____item6____item7



Code:

<div class="homebodytext">
	<ul>
	  <li class="homebodylifloat">item1</li>
	  <li class="homebodylifloat">item2</li>
	  <li class="homebodylifloat">item3</li><br style="clear: both;"><br>
	  <li class="homebodylifloat">item4</li>
	  <li class="homebodylifloat">item5</li>
	  <li class="homebodylifloat">item6</li>
	  <li class="homebodylifloat">item7</li><br style="clear: both;">
	</ul>
</div>

Code:

.homebodytext { border: 0px solid #0000;
text-align: center;
width: 900px;
padding-left: 20px;
font-weight:bold;
}

.homebodylifloat {
float: left;
width: 220px;
}

Hello! I've got a funky IE issue. I'm using IE9 with the compatibility view turned on for this one website. I've got a <ul> lists with hover states. It's acting odd. If I drag my mouse down from the top of the link, the hover state triggers. If I come from the bottom of the link, it doesn't. Do you think this has to do with a transparent PNG? Really appreciate any words of wisdom on this subject.

On my website, the left nav. bar is made using a list.

The list has a border round top, bottom, right & left, and has a blue hover colour.

The list however, does not display tight up against each other, and takes a line between each list item.

I'd like it to be right above and below one another rather than a gap in between.

You can view the list on the site, HERE.

The CSS for the nav. bar is:

Code:

/*-----LEFT MENU-----*/
#leftcontent {
	width: 120px; 
}

#leftcontent ul {
	margin-left: 8px;
	padding-left: 0;
	list-style-type: none;
	font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}

#leftcontent a {
	padding: 0px;
	padding-left: 2px;
	padding-top: 1px;
	padding-bottom: 1px;
	background-color: #fff;
	border: 1px solid #ccc;
	text-decoration: none;
	display:block;
}

#leftcontent img {
	display:inline;
	padding:0;
	border:0;
	margin:0;
}

#leftcontent a:link, #navlist {
	color: #000;
	text-decoration: none;
}

#leftcontent a:visited {
	color: #000;
}

#leftcontent a {
		color:	#000000;
}

#leftcontent a:hover {
	background-color: #369;
	display:block;
	color: #fff;
}

#leftcontent img a:hover{
	display:inline;
	padding:0;
	border:0;
	margin:0;
}
/*----END LEFT MENU----*/

Note: The img hover, bg colour etc. is so it does not use the same properties as when I open the page up in my content management system it uses small icons, which would use the list properties if I did not define it as an image. Please just ignore it.

Cheers.

If you view that page in Firefox, it displays how it is supposed to. But if you view the page in Internet Explorer, you can see that it is severely ****ed up!

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Jordan

To make this easier on everyone, I've turned my idea into an image, so please see the image I attached.

I'm absolutely horrible with CSS, so I just need some help with converting that image into CSS/HTML. I'm hoping to have each box an unordered list, so they are still organized nicely even if someone has CSS disabled.

Thanks.

Question? Okay I know IE for some reason defaults with a left-padding or something for an unordered list. so when I set padding:0 for my unordered list everything is great in firefox. But when I look at it in IE the list-style elements are pulled off of the list object. How can I place no padding on the list and still use the list-symbols in IE?

The thought of placing my own list object in the background, but it would be silly if I could just use the disc built into windows ie.

thanks!
