CSS - Ie7 Doesn't Even Show Menu?
Hey everyone,
I am making a design for my own pleasure, and for some reason IE7 does not even show the menu. Here is my code. Code: <!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> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Script-Type" content="text/javascript" /> <title>Untitled - Design 1</title> <style type="text/css"> /* <![CDATA[ */ body { background-color: #DDDDDD; color: #000000; text-align: center; /* IE5/Win hack, why do I bother with IE5/Win? */ font-family: verdana, tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0; padding: 15px; } a img,a { border: 0; } a,a:link { color: #000000; text-decoration: underline; } a:visited { color: #000000; text-decoration: underline; } a:hover { color: #0096ff; text-decoration: none; } #container { margin: 0 auto; width: 79%; height: auto; text-align: left; } #outer { background-image: url( bg_top.gif ); background-repeat: no-repeat; height: 86px; padding: 15px; } #inner { margin-top: -16px; background-image: url(body_bg.gif); background-repeat: repeat-y; background-position: top left; padding: 15px; } #leftmenu { float: left; width: 202px; } #leftmenu p { border-left: 1px solid #0099cc; border-right: 1px solid #0099cc; text-align: center; /* Blah, damn whitespaces */ margin-top: -15px; margin-bottom: -5px; } #leftmenu h1 { height: 35px; background-image: url( header_top.gif ); background-repeat: no-repeat; font-size: 15pt; color: #FFFFFF; } #menulast { background-image: url( menu_bottom.gif ); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: top left; height: 18px; width: 202px; } .cleareasy { clear: both; /* Good bye gullotine bug :) */ } /* ]]> */ </style> </head> <body> <div id="container"> <div id="outer"> asdfsdaf<br /> asdfsdaf<br /> asdfsdaf<br /> </div> <div id="inner"> <div id="leftmenu"> <h1>asdfasdf</h1> <p> asdf<br /> asdf<br /> asdf<br /> asdf<br /> asdf<br /> asdf<br /> asdf<br /> asdf<br /> asdf<br /> asdf<br /> asdf<br /> asdf<br /> asdf<br /> asdf<br /> asdf<br /> asdf<br /> </p> <div id="menulast"></div> </div> <div class="cleareasy"></div> </div> </div> </body> </html> And also IE5 shows spacings, which other browsers don't because of the negative margins I have said, anyway to do get rid of those? Similar TutorialsI 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;} 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; } Hi everyone...new here and I hope you can help!

But how do I how keep the state of Menu on each requested page any help is appreciated. The following menu is saved in a separate jsp file i.e. navs.jsp. I include this navigation jsp file in all of my files. Initially the drop down looks like: Code: . Ask.Jeeves . [+] Google.com . [+] Yahoo.com Now clicking [+] in front of Google.com will look like. Code: . Ask.Jeeves . [-] Google.com . Google.co.ie . Google.co.ie . [+] Google.co.nz . [+] Yahoo.com Lets's say now if I click on Google.co.ie it takes me to sample.jsp and on this requested page (sample.jsp) how can I show the following menu hierarchy with Google.co.ie bold/underlined/colorchanged showing what menu content I clicked and am viewing the appropriate content i.e. Code: . Ask.Jeeves . [-] Google.com . Google.co.ie . Google.co.ie . [+] Google.co.nz . [+] Yahoo.com Same way clicking Google.com or Yahoo.com or Ask.Jeeves shows you the following hierarchy on the requested page with higlight/bold/colored the link we just selected. i.e. Code: . Ask.Jeeves . [+] Google.com . [+] Yahoo.com Any time clicking on the menu takes me to some page but on that page I want to show th hierarchy of the menu all the way to which is recently clicked with different color setting.

Any ideas on why this is happening? IE has been going weird when ever I use background images 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; } 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!! I have a Wordpress site. 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 Long time reader, first time poster. I have an issue with a css vertical menu I've made but first things first. My target browser is IE7, this is a corporate intranet so I have some control over this. However, we do run alot of pcs with Firefox but, of course, the problem doesn't exist with this browser. Here's the issue: The div#leftbox contains the menu but when the list elements extend into the center div (div#middlebox) you can see the anchors and finger them but if you try to move to the next list item the submenu disapears? It's like it recognizes the display: block on the list element but not on the anchor? Another weird thing is that if I extend the div#leftbox width to accommodate the size of the menu and the submenu it works fine but only if i have a background-color applied to the #leftbox. If I leave it transparent it behaves as before.

Mark Hi, **UPDATE: Problem Fixed...change the z-index of the parent menu element, thanks mizzory!*** Thank you for viewing this post and your help is greatly appreciated! The navagation menu works great in IE8 and Firefox, however in IE7, the drop-down hides behind the content div. I have tried assigning z-index to the divs, but with no luck. #wrap { margin:auto; width:1000px; background-color: #FFFFFF; background-repeat: repeat-y; min-height:100%; position:relative; } html, body { margin:0; padding:0; height:100%; } #content { min-height: 400px; padding-bottom:50px; /* Height of the footer */ position:relative; } #header { height: 200px; } #footer { position:absolute; bottom:0; width:100%; height:50px; /* Height of the footer */ font-size: 14px; font:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, bold; text-align:center; color:#FFFFFF; } /*horizontal menu specifications*/ #menu { background: #FFFFFF; float: left; height:40px; } #menu ul { list-style: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 142.85px; float: left; } #menu a, #menu h2 { font: bold 13px arial, helvetica, sans-serif; display: block; border-width: 1px; border-style: solid; border-color: #FFFFFF; margin: 0; padding: 2px; text-align:center; } /* main menu header: set font colour and background colour */ #menu h2 { color: #FFFFFF; background: #0066CC; text-decoration:none; } /* main menu dropdown: set font colour, background colour, no underline for hyperlink */ #menu a { color: #000000; background: #CCCCCC; border-color: #000000; text-decoration: none; } /* main menu dropdown mouse hovering: set font colour, background colour*/ #menu a:hover { color: #E4001B; background: #FFFFFF; } /*position the pop out menu*/ #menu li { position: relative; } #menu ul ul { position: absolute; z-index: 500; } 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; } -S Please help. The code listed below validates. It is a 2 level pull out menu using only CSS. It works nicely in FireFox and IE 6, but I don't see the sub-menus in IE 7. Why? Is it related to z-index? The files are organized: html, non IE css, IE css. I pulled out the IE specific css to make things more clear. homepage.mac.com/carlamatusow/testmenu/testmenu.html homepage.mac.com/carlamatusow/testmenu/testmenu.css homepage.mac.com/carlamatusow/testmenu/testmenuIE.css Thanks, Carla My drop menu works fine in IE7, however in firefox the menu's don't drop.

I tried to put a menu in the left column (technically div) - of this web page. This is a menu that uses JS mouseover and mouseout to set the style of the children menus to block or none - to show or hide the children or submenu items. onmouseover="document.all.child1.style.display='block' onmouseout="document.all.child1.style.display='none' When you mouseover the menu item, children menu items underneath it are supposed to be displayed, but they're not. Please look at the style sheet - and web page. Any idea why this menu works outside of the CSS two column layout, but not when I place the code inside this layout?????? Thanks Vmusic Hey everyone, I am just touching up an old design I made, and I just noticed that Firefox has a weird white-space next to the top menu. Not sure what is causing it, but it is there. Here is a screenshot of what is happening in Firefox. Also, in IE, the container doesn't extend past the bottom menu. Here is a screenshot of what is happening in IE. So far I am just testing in Firefox 2.0.0.11 and IE7.

Many species are not actually arboreal (do not live in trees), but terrestrial or aquatic (live on the ground or in the water).</p> <p>Many arboreal frogs are green, while terrestrial and aquatic species are duller.</p> <p>They mostly feed on insects and other invertebrates, but some larger species can feed on small vertebrates. The species within the genus Cyclorana are burrowing frogs, sometimes spending many years underground.</p> </div> </div> </body> </html> Any anyway, if I take out the <link> it dissapears!! The CSS in it has nothing to do with the image. Here is the CSS in the <link> tag. Code: #showcase {background:#6f9c6f;} dl.menus_list dt {background:#6f9c6f; font-size:1.5em; margin:3px 0;} #foot {background:#8fbc8f;} dl.menus_list dd.nil {padding:0; margin:0;} I hate to say it but I'm baffled! Goal: Get all the CSS into the same file as the rest of my code. Edit: Gah kravvitz I've been watching your move through your profile and you signed off!! Gay. Well I hope someone else here can help me solve this issue I'm having... EDIT:: Simplier way to write the question ^.^ :: When I scroll off the menu/link onto the first link in the submenu it stays, but when I mvoe down to the next item in the submenu it disappears. (My drop down is vertically aligned on the left.) (bits of the code that relate to the menu) PHP Code: .btn1 { position: absolute; left: 165px; top: 200px; } .btn2 { position: absolute; left: 165px; top: 240px; } .btn3 { position: absolute; left: 165px; top: 280px; } .btn4 { position: absolute; left: 165px; top: 320px; } .btn5 { position: absolute; left: 165px; top: 360px; } .btn6 { position: absolute; left: 165px; top: 400px; } .btn7 { position: absolute; left: 165px; top: 440px; } .btn8 { position: absolute; left: 165px; top: 480px; } .link1 { position: absolute; left: auto; top: 240px; } .link2 { position: absolute; left: auto; top: 280px; } .link3 { position: absolute; left: auto; top: 320px; } .link4 { position: absolute; left: auto; top: 360px; } .link5 { position: absolute; left: auto; top: 400px; } .link6 { position: absolute; left: auto; top: 440px; } .link7 { position: absolute; left: auto; top: 480px; } .link8 { position: absolute; left: auto; top: 520px; } .link9 { position: absolute; left: auto; top: 560px; } #nav, #nav ul { padding: 0; margin: 0; list-style: none; } #nav a { display: block; width: 100px; } #nav li { width: 100px; } #nav li ul { position: absolute; width: 100px; left: -9999px; display: none; top: 0; z-index: 3; } #nav li:hover ul { display: block; left: 266px; z-index: 3; } #nav li:over ul { display: block; left: 266px; z-index: 3; } PHP Code: <ul id="nav"> <li><a href="HOBmain.htm"><img class="btn1" src="../mainbtn.gif" width="100" height="38" alt="MainBtn"></a></li> <li><a href="HOBmain.htm"><img class="btn2" src="../blogbtn.gif" width="100" height="38" alt="BlogBtn"></a> <ul> <li class="link1"><a href=""><img src="../mbtn.gif" alt="bMainBtn"></a></li> <li class="link2"><a href="#"><img src="../anmbtn.gif" alt="bAnimeBtn"></a></li> <li class="link3"><a href="#"><img src="../mgabtn.gif" alt="bMangaBtn"></a></li> <li class="link4"><a href="#"><img src="../gmebtn.gif" alt="bGameBtn"></a></li> <li class="link5"><a href="#"><img src="../bookbtn.gif" alt="bBookBtn"></a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="HOBmuse.htm"><img class="btn3" src="../musebtn.gif" width="100" height="38" alt="MuseBtn"></a> <ul> <li class="link2"><a href="HOBmuse.htm"><img src="../mbtn.gif" alt="mMainBtn"></a></li> <li class="link3"><a href="HOBmuse.htm"><img src="../pmbtn.gif" alt="mPoemBtn"></a></li> <li class="link4"><a href="HOBmuse.htm"><img src="../stybtn.gif" alt="mStoryBtn"></a></li> <li class="link5"><a href="HOBmuse.htm"><img src="../drmbtn.gif" alt="mDreamBtn"></a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="HOBodd.htm"><img class="btn4" src="../oddbtn.gif" width="100" height="38" alt="ComicBtn"></a> <ul> <li class="link3"><a href="HOBodd.htm"><img src="../mbtn.gif" alt="cMainBtn"></a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="HOBart.htm"><img class="btn5" src="../artbtn.gif" width="100" height="38" alt="ArtBtn"></a> <ul> <li class="link4"><a href="HOBart.htm"><img src="../mbtn.gif" alt="aMainBtn"></a></li> <li class="link5"><a href="HOBart.htm"><img src="../recbtn.gif" alt="aRecentBtn"></a></li> <li class="link6"><a href="HOBart.htm"><img src="../gaibtn.gif" alt="aGaiaBtn"></a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="HOBpic.htm"><img class="btn6" src="../picbtn.gif" width="100" height="38" alt="PicsBtn"></a> <ul> <li class="link5"><a href="HOBpic.htm"><img src="../mbtn.gif" alt="pMainBtn"></a></li> <li class="link6"><a href="HOBpic.htm"><img src="../recbtn.gif" alt="pRecentBtn"></a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="HOBfaq.htm"><img class="btn7" src="../faqbtn.gif" width="100" height="38" alt="FaqBtn"></a></li> <li><a href="HOBcon.htm"><img class="btn8" src="../contactbtn.gif" width="100" height="38" alt="ContactBtn"></a> </li> </ul> <script type="text/javascript" src="drop_down.js"></script> the "nav" is referring to a bit of js, and this is in my header.
