CSS - Automatic Scrolling
I was wondering if there was a way with CSS, to create a box, where the text within automatically scrolls.
For example, I have a box that has a date, and then the latest news. Say that there are about 20 lines worth of text, but the box itself, is only 10, I wanted the text to scroll from bottom to top automatically. I know I could probably do something like this in flash, and I'm guessing javascript as well. But don't want to use javascript. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Similar TutorialsHow would I go about making the width of a <div> element as big as it needs to be depending on the amount of text. I've got, div.note {width: auto;} but it doesn't seem to be doing anything. (The site in question) Sorry for being so dumb i have <meta http-equiv="cache-control" content="no-cache" /> in my head, but i DO want people to cache my .css file because that means less loading time for them. HOWEVER, only if it is not new. is that possible? I would like to do automatic resizing textfield depending of resize browser. I know one solution with css style code. for example :<input type="text" style="position:absolute;width:50%">, but it don't accommodate me. Please, exist other solution for this problem? Is there a way to define a text style where a dash and a space is automatically inserted after the text? If I want this: Subtitle and then content To look like this: Subtitle - and then content How can I do that? Thanks HTML <div class="unitWide"> <div class="labelRight" id="appt"> Reaction</div> <div class="widget"><input type="text" name="Name" size="30"/></div> </div> <div class="unitAutoHeight"> <div class="labelRight">Description</div> <div class="widget"> <textarea name="comments"class="wideComment" rows="6" cols="28"></textarea></div> </div> CSS .unitSmall, .unitWide, .unitSmaller, .unitAutoHeight, .unitPair, .unitCal { float: left; z-index:1; width: 100%; height: 2.4em; padding-bottom: 6px; } .unitAutoHeight { height: auto; } input, .wideComment { font-size: 16px; padding: 3px; background: transparent; background-image: url(../images/inputbackground.png); border: none; color: #3f3f3f; font-weight: bold; width: 23.6em; } Hi y'all, Ive got form elements (here called 'units') stacked vertically and left floated to ensure alignment in a fixed-width form. Im trying to get the comment input box to stretch vertically, and add rows as the user inputs longer text. Basically I want to save space on the form by not specifying a predetermined number of rows (which is not the case right now, theres 6 rows), but to let it expand and not hide the overflow or worse, display a sidebar. Ive tried everything, looked in javascript forums, cant find it! Ideally it would behave like the new facebook message or wall post text box. Thanks I was quite proud of that title, especially at 4 minutes past monday. Anyway - I digress. I am trying to create a scrolling news-type box using a div which is clipped so it looks like it scrolls up and down inside a 'window'. I have not declared what height i want the scrolling div to be as i never know how much text will be in it. When you scroll all the way to the bottom, I want there to be a way so that it stops scrolling - and for this i need the height of the div. Is there anyway of finding the height at all, or will i have to use a fixed height div. If my explanation is a touch wooly, the prototype page is here please see following code. (i want myHeight becomes dynamis, that mean when user resize the browser, it will be changed automatic w/o refresh the page). thank you. waitting online for the answer. <html> <head> </head> <body > <table> <tr><td>tasd</td></tr> <tr><td> <script type="text/javascript"> var myWidth = 0, myHeight = 0; if( typeof( window.innerWidth ) == 'number' ) { //Non-IE myWidth = window.innerWidth; myHeight = window.innerHeight; } else if( document.documentElement && ( document.documentElement.clientWidth || document.documentElement.clientHeight ) ) { //IE 6+ in 'standards compliant mode' myWidth = document.documentElement.clientWidth; myHeight = document.documentElement.clientHeight; } else if( document.body && ( document.body.clientWidth || document.body.clientHeight ) ) { //IE 4 compatible myWidth = document.body.clientWidth; myHeight = document.body.clientHeight; } //var height = myHeight *.8; document.writeln("<div style='HEIGHT:" + myHeight *.8 + "; WIDTH:100%; OVERFLOW:auto'>"); //return height; </script> <table> <tr><td> msg </td></tr> </table> </div> <td> msg </td> </table> </body> </html> I'm trying to create a box with rounded corners. This in itself is fine - there are plenty of tutorials around for this. They all either seem to require four divs nested in the corners of the container div. eg: <div id="container"> <div id="topleft"></div> <div id="topright"></div> <div id="bottomleft"></div> <div id="bottomright"></div> blah blah blah </div> Or the alternative works in a similar way, but uses existing tags to "hook" onto, like <h2> or <p>. I want to reuse the round-corner boxes throughout the site. However, I don't want to be required to use my hook tags, and I'd like to avoid specifying each nested corner div each time. I want to say, "This is the Container style. Whenever you see the container style, include these nested corner divs as well." Is there a way to do this? Hi guys, I've this div with overflow:auto. This div is populated using xmlhttprequest (it's an IM chat) so it will be getting full to the point where there's an overflow and the scrollbar shows up. What I would like to do is, whenever a new content line was added to the div (I'm using DOM to do so), the scroll (if overflow has happened) would go all the way down in a way where the last line of visible text in the div would always be the last line inserted. I'm somewhat newbie at this stuff so, any help in the right direction would be great! Thx Hugo Good morning, I have a problem with a layer(div) that I am putting over my page everytime the user clicks a button and a transaction is send to the host. My problem is that if there is an scroll and the user scroll, the message scrolls up and dissapears. I need to fix it to the center of the screen. I have tried with % instead of absolute px. Can anyone help me, please?. I am close to my deadline, so any help would be really apreciated. I am attaching my code: window.onbeforeunload=new Function("Procesando.style.visibility='visible';"); window.onblur=new Function("Procesando.style.visibility='hidden';"); //window.onfocus=new Function("Procesando.style.visibility='hidden';"); document.write('<div style="position:absolute; top:160; left:313; visibility:hidden; overflow:hidden; background-color:#CCCCCC; clip:rect(12,177,50,3); " id="Procesando">\n'+ '<select size=4 name="cbEspera" class="TextoTablaIzq" style="background-color:#CCB8E0; font-Weight:bold;">\n'+ '<option> </option>\n'+ '<option> Procesando su petici'+unescape("%F3")+'n. </option>\n'+ '<option> Espere por favor... </option>\n'+ '<option> </option>\n'+ '</select></div>\n'); Hey guys!! I got a quick question. I have a CSS layout page with 2 scrollbars. The first one for a news section and the second for a product. I have a lot of content for both sections, The scrollbars work fine, but on the main IE the scrollbars keep adjusting to the content that I have. if i have less content then its small..... I want to have no scrolling on my main window. Dear all, I have been working to implement a scrolling table into an xml / xsl interface and so far have managed to put together an acceptable version using <thead> and <tbody> syntax. Indeed, for the html examples that I found out there, this seems to work perfectly. On the surface it also works perfectly in my xml / xsl implementation too (html underneath). Indeed, using IE6*, you can take a look at a cut-down example by going to this link ... http://alse.load4.net/scrollproblem/scrollproblem.xml ... and then selecting 'Milan', 'Report Test' and clicking on 'Run'. This gives a nice scrolling list which is exactly what I want. However ... If you scroll to the bottom of the list in the scrolling area (the list is short as I have removed most of the data and all the reports except for this one) and then resize the window, the headers are distorted. With more data (which is normally the case for us) the distortion is even worse. I have spent many hours tweaking my CSS (contain in the XSL file for convenience) and the HTML but just can't get rid of the 'distortion-on-resize' problem. I am hoping that either ... a.) There is a way to block the browser from being resized (I don't know if there is?) ... or ... b.) Someone can take a look at my syntax and offer a suggestion to sort this out. The source code can be obtained by clicking on the two hyperlinks 'xml file' and 'xsl file' included in the link. Indeed, I believe that the problem (and solution) may lie in some dynamic CSS declarations ( e.g. top: expression(offsetParent.scrollTop); /*IE5+ only*/ ) which I have obtained from various examples but don't understand completely. Many thanks for any help that you can give as this could be a great little tool if we can sort out this last hurdle. Regards, Alan Searle *: This solution is only designed to work with IE as that is what we have in-house. CSS: Here are the CSS declarations which are contained in the XSL file ... [code] <style type="text/css" media="screen"> table {width: 99%; background-color: #E2EFFE; border-style: solid; border-collapse:collapse; border-color: #316AC5;} table.displayframe { background-color: white; border: solid 1px #316AC5;} h1 {margin-top: 1em; font-variant: normal;} h2 {margin-left:5px;} h3 {margin-left:5px;} div.tableContainer { width: 100%; /* table width will be 99% of this*/ height: 344px; /* must be greater than tbody*/ overflow: auto; margin: 0 auto;} table.cont { width: 98%; /*100% of container produces horiz. scroll in Mozilla*/ border: none; background-color: #E2EFFE;} table.cont>tbody { /* child selector syntax which IE6 and older do not support*/ overflow: auto; height: 301px; overflow-x: hidden;} thead.cont tr { border: none; position:relative; top: expression(offsetParent.scrollTop); /*IE5+ only*/ } thead.cont td, thead.cont th { font-size: 14px; background-color: white; color: blue; border: none; /* border-top: solid 1px #d8d8d8; */ } td.cont { color: #000; padding-right: 2px; font-size: 8px; border-bottom: solid 1px #d8d8d8; border-left: solid 1px #d8d8d8;} table.cont tfoot tr { /*to help IE*/ position: relative; overflow-x: hidden; top: expression(parentNode.parentNode.offsetHeight >= offsetParent.offsetHeight ? 0 - parentNode.parentNode.offsetHeight + offsetParent.offsetHeight + offsetParent.scrollTop : 0); } a:link {text-decoration: underline;} a:hover {text-decoration: underline; color: #851D9E;} a:visited {text-decoration: underline; color: #8080C0;} </style> Can anyone tell me where I can get some info on CSS? Specifically I am trying to create sort of a news page, which will have a box that contains news articles that slowly scroll upwards until they disppear and then raeppear at the bottom at the bottom of the box again. I know this can be done with CSS and I've kind of accomplished what I want. The problem is that I'm using seperate elements for each article title. Therefore, only one article title scrolls through the box at the time since I can only make one element visible. Mabye, it will make more sense when you see my code. I want to basically be able to have the other news article titles begin to scroll underneath each other, not having to wait for the news article title above it to finish scrolling before the next article enters the box. I hope this makes sense! here is the code: <HTML> <HEAD> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> function init() { nos = 1; items = 6; posY = 130; scroller(); } function scroller() { if (nos == items + 1) { nos = 1; } elemID = 'elem'.concat(nos); objDOM = document.all[elemID].style; objDOM.visibility = "visible"; posY -= 1; objDOM.top = posY; if (posY <= 50) { objDOM.visibility = "hidden"; posY = 130; nos += 1; } setTimeout ("scroller()",10); } // --> </SCRIPT> <STYLE TYPE="text/css"> <!-- #elem1 {position:absolute; visibility:hidden; left:35; top:0; z-index:5} #elem2 {position:absolute; visibility:hidden; left:35; top:0; z-index:5} #elem3 {position:absolute; visibility:hidden; left:35; top:0; z-index:5} #elem4 {position:absolute; visibility:hidden; left:35; top:0; z-index:5} #elem5 {position:absolute; visibility:hidden; left:35; top:0; z-index:5} #elem6 {position:absolute; visibility:hidden; left:35; top:0; z-index:5} #screen {position:absolute; visibility:visible; left: 20px; top:50px; z-index:0} --> </STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY onLoad="init()"> <DIV ID="elem1"><FONT COLOR="#000000"> News & Events- article 1 </FONT></DIV> <DIV ID="elem2"><FONT COLOR="#000000"> News & Events- article 2 </FONT></DIV> <DIV ID="elem3"><FONT COLOR="#000000"> News & Events- article 3 </FONT></DIV> <DIV ID="elem4"><FONT COLOR="#000000"> News & Events- article 4 </FONT></DIV> <DIV ID="elem5"><FONT COLOR="#000000"> News & Events- article 5</FONT></DIV> <DIV ID="elem6"><FONT COLOR="#000000"> News & Events- article 6</FONT></DIV> <DIV ID="screen"> <TABLE WIDTH=350 HEIGHT=120 BORDER=0 BGCOLOR=#808080> <TD></TD></TABLE> </DIV> </BODY> </HTML> I have a scrollable DIV on a page, I also have a DIV containing a button which has a fixed position. Is it possible to get the button to scroll withing the DIV and not with the actual page? If so, besides having the code for the button inside the tags of the scrollable DIV, do I need anything else? Can someone point me to a tutorial (or if it's easy enough, just show me here) where I can learn how to make a scrolling div? Ideally, one that looks like this (this would be on a black-backgrounded page): Thanks!... I've made an image to explain my problem pretty well : imgur dot com /n8uOX (apparently I am not allowed to posts links , however its kinda hard for me to explain the problem so its easier to just show it) basically i want my page to always be rendered as I intended it to. I am pretty sure my coding is quite bad and thats what caused the problem , yet if anyone have any way to fix this please post in this thread. Thanks Hey guys, So i'm working on the site www. paulfenton .tk. My problem occurs when you click on one of the categories in the sidebar or go to an individual post by clicking on the title... a horizontal scrollbar seems to come up. when it shouldnt. if you use the mouse wheel inside the content region, you can see that the content is scrolling a little bit horizontally. I woudld like to stop this or fix the cause but I cant figure out how... Also, if you click and drag downwards as if you were trying to select everything on the page, the page scrolls below the bottom border.. it is not supposed to do this since I turned off overflow. Any help or ideas would be great, let me know if you have any questions. -Paul Hi all, I have just found this forum and have an issue to solve... I'm creating my online portfolio and as many photographer I have choosen to use an horizontal scrolling. It works fine on all browsers except IE below version 8. Do you know what can be the trick ? The code is the following : There is a main images container in which two type of images are placed (landscape or portrait orientation) Code: #images {
background-color: #FFF;
overflow: auto;
position: absolute;
left: 0;
right: 0;
height : 600px;
top: 63px;
white-space: nowrap;
z-index:1;
overflow-y: hidden;
}
.imagew {
display: inline-block;
width: 800px;
height: 600px;
text-align: center;
line-height: 600px;
}
.imageh {
display: inline-block;
width: 450px;
height: 600px;
text-align: top;
line-height: 600px;
}
after that the code is : Code: <div id="images"> <div class="imagew"><img alt="" src="offshore/1.jpg"/></div> <div class="imagew"><img alt="" src="offshore/2.jpg"/></div> <div class="imagew"><img alt="" src="offshore/3.jpg"/></div> <div class="imagew"><img alt="" src="offshore/4.jpg"/></div> <div class="imagew"><img alt="" src="offshore/5.jpg"/></div> </div> Hello all, I noticed there was similar post on this topic, though I was not able to fix my problem with that post, so I will post my own. I have made a site with relative pos, and css. I have everything positioned nicely (on everything but IE, still working on that CSS), but I have a vertical scroll bar that goes down about 3 inches, the only thing, there is nothing down there to scroll to. I have tried to alter just about everything I can think of, but nothing seems to work. If you can believe it this has been plagueing me for about 3 weeks now. Any help would relieve a lot of stress.
