CSS - Issues With <div> Expanding To Width Of Content
I have a page whose outer-most container has a fixed width. On some pages, there is a table whose width I cannot set to be fixed because its contents (more specifically the number of <td>s) are dynamic.
My problem is that when the table has so many <td>s that its width is forced to be greater than its parent <div>'s fixed width, the other page elements are not rendered as desired. Here is a simple illiustration of what I'm talking about. The text on the page explAins my issues (although it should be evident from loooking at it in a browser).

I'm not saying my code is correct and that the browsers are not displaying it properly. I know I'm doing something wrong, I just can't figure out what. Any suggestions? Similar TutorialsDear all, IE problems trying to get a large amount of content to sit in a smaller div with overflow set to auto. In FF it works perfectly, but in IE the outer div ignores the width value I have set and instead expands to the width of the content. My code: Code: <div id="calendarWrapper" style="width:800px;height:600px;overflow:scroll;"> <div style="width:4000px;height:1000px;overflow:auto;background-image:url(img/calendarBackground.gif);position:relative"> <div style="background-color:#FFFFCC;position:absolute;top:76px;left:150px;width:1000px;height:74px;">Test</div> <div style="background-color:#FFFFCC;position:absolute;top:151px;left:300px;width:750px;height:74px;">Test</div> <div style="background-color:#FFFFCC;position:absolute;top:1px;left:75px;width:100px;height:74px;">Test</div> </div> </div> I found a couple more threads similar to this but none with a solution. any help most appreciated. Mark I have a page with an ASP.NET Gridview on it...this Gridview is located in a child DIV inside a parent DIV. That Gridview can often go wider than the parent DIV width set. In IE6 the MAINDIV (Parent DIV) would expand to fit the expanded Gridview contained within the child DIV. In IE7 the DIV will not expand so it overlaps the DIV and looks bad. I want that MainDiv to dynamically grow with the child DIV width, like it did in IE6. Please see my code below. I want the MainDiv to remain ~800px unless it is pushed out further. Thanks for any ideas on a fix for this. Whenever I try min-width it just blows the parent DIV out to 100% screen size. Code:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head id="Head1" runat="server">
</head>
<body style="width:100%;text-align:center;background-color:#68838B" onload="loadpage();">

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? here is a link to my test page. http://www.gamerunion.com/test.html My css code. Code:

going bonkers, I have tried everything to find out why on earth the background goes all the way to the right when this page is viewed in IE.. Black Background Not Stoping!! 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 :-) -Solange. Hi guys, I'm trying to sort out the top level menu. It's supposed to allow a hover effect, where a sub menu then appears. This secondary nav then spans across in an inline fashion. The link to the site is: http://yoursitetest.co.uk/index2.php However it seems to have some kind of 'width' set on the parent which the sub menu cannot expand past. This is some of the code i think is relevant: (Rest of nav cut due to repeating nature) Code: <ul id="navigation">
<li class="main" style="position:absolute; font-size:11px; z-index:90; left:0px;"><a href="#" class="co">Home</a>
<ul style="display:none; z-index:100; height:28px;">
<li style="background-image:url(images/sm-l.png); background-repeat:no-repeat; width:15px; height:30px;"></li>
<li><a href="#" style="background-color:#EEE;">asa</a></li>
<li><a href="#" style="background-color:#EEE;">aa</a></li>

Hope someone can help, Regards, Joe. I have set my table cell #3 to 246px and have placed an image (called keyboard.jpg) with a width of 246px in it as a background image (the only cell in the table with an image), yet the table cell has expanded beyond that 246px width. I need to set the cellpadding to 5px because for legibility for all the other cells (with just text) in the table. Can I turn off the cellpadding for just this one cell #3 that has an image in it? Why does a background image in a table cell react to the table's cellpadding? Should I remove the keyboard.jpg as a background image and make it an in-table image? <em>Whatever the case, how can I make the image fit nicely without any extra space in the cell?</em> Here's my code and my stylesheet: <div id="table"> <table width="725" border="0" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" class="table"> <tr> <td width="1"> </td> <td class="cell1" width="130"><p><strong>Yada</strong></p> <p>Bla bla bla</p> <p>Bla bla bla</p></td> <td class="cell2" width="124"><p><strong>Yada</strong></p> <p>Bla bla bla</p> </td> <td class="cell3" width="246"></td> <td class="cell4" width="174"><p><strong>Yada</strong></p> <p>Bla bla bla<br /> <br /> Bla bla bla</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="tdblue"> </td> <td class="cell5"><p><strong>Yada</strong></p> <p>Bla bla bla</p></td> <td class="cell6"><p><strong>Yada</strong></p> <p>Bla bla bla</p></td> <td class="cell7"><p><strong>Yada</strong></p> <p>Bla bla bla Bla bla bla Bla bla bla Bla bla bla Bla bla bla Bla bla bla</p></td> <td class="cell8"><p><strong>Yada</strong></p> <p>Bla bla bla</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td> </td> <td class="cell9"><p><strong>Yada</strong></p> <p>Bla bla bla Bla bla bla Bla bla bla</p></td> <td class="cell10"><p><strong>Yada</strong></p> <p>Bla bla bla Bla bla bla.</p></td> <td class="cell11"><p><strong>Yada</strong></p> <p>Bla bla bla Bla bla bla Bla bla bla Bla bla bla </p></td> <td class="cell12" width="174"><p><strong>Yada</strong></p> <p>Bla bla bla Bla bla bla Bla bla bla </p></td> </tr> </table> Here's my stylesheet: table { width: 760px; margin: auto; font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; font-weight: 400; line-height: 150%; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; letter-spacing: .5px; } table td { vertical-align: top; } td.cell1 { background: white; padding: 5; width: 130px; } td.cell2 { background: #F7F4EE; padding: 5; width: 124px; } td.cell3 { background: #ffffff; background-image: url(../images/keyboard.jpg); background-repeat: no-repeat; spacing: 0; padding: 0; width: 246px; } td.cell4 { background: #F7F4EE; padding: 5; width: 174px; } td.cell5 { background: #DFE5F0; padding: 5; width: 130px; } td.cell6 { background: white; padding: 5; width: 124px; } td.cell7 { background: #DFE5F0; padding: 5; width: 246px; } td.cell8 { background: white; padding: 5; width: 174px; } td.cell9 { background: white; padding: 5; width: 130px; } td.cell10 { background: #F7F4EE; padding: 5; width: 124px; } td.cell11 { background: white; padding: 5; width: 246px; } td.cell12 { background: #F7F4EE; padding: 5; width: 174px; } .tdblue { background: #DFE5F0; } .tdtan { background: #F7F4EE; } Well, this would be the first time I actually am starting to use full DIVs to code a website, usually use tables. Anyways, I have most bugs fixed out since I do somewhat know how to code in DIVs - the question is though, on one of the "right" side content area things I have, the content part extending right over the DIV, and even the container. I also gave both with fixed widths, no idea why this is happening. Anyone have any ideas? http://www.futuregamers.net http://www.futuregamers.net/style.css Hi, I have hit the "wall" in my knowledge of CSS while trying to implement a "flex-width-equal-height-sidebar-layout" style of layout as a skin/theme for a message board system and need some help. My trouble occurs when a direct link to the post is used (instead of following the menu navigation system) where the top menu information/links area (the area between the banner and the post) is chopped off... The relevant portion of the CSS seems to be the .col_wrap {margin-top: 10px; border: 0; overflow: hidden; float: left; width: 100%; position: relative; z-index: 10; clear: both;} portion of my CSS because if I take out the overflow:hidden declaration then the menu portion of the skin/theme/layout shows correctly but the sidebar the shows the part which should be hidden at the bottom and the footer completely vanishes from view! My apologies but this is the best I can do without having the ability to post pics or urls which could better explain what is wrong and frankly speaking I don't know how anyone here can help given my inability to show the problem but hopefully someone knows or has run into this problem before or can offer some resources that may be of assistance.... i ve been playing with my page and been trying to modify the width of the page (divs) according to the browswer's width. The problem is i want the navigation menu on left to be fixed width (say 200px) and the center div and the right column to be variable width. Also, i want to set a minimum width , so that the floating divs dont roll below the navigation menu. here s the link to the page. try reducing ur browser windows size . the content div rolls down under theleft nav menu. http://ccc.1asphost.com/pacemakerpr...r/cicuitlab.htm Also , i get wierd result in netscape navigator. please help I'm having a serious brain fart here...I must have come across this issue a million times before but I guess I haven't thought about it for so long, that I'm at a loss.... Very simply, I want to have a horizontal menu using text (ie not images) that will fill to fit the width of the page. Now I'd want to make there be a min-width and I can do that, but there's got to be a way to have the padding between the items adjust depending on how wide the browser is, right? And I should be able to do this with CSS and not have to use tables right? In other words, the width of the individual menu items will remain the same, but in a browser that's say 800px wide the space between the first item will be very near the left side of the page, and the last item will be very near the right side of the page and the items will be spaced evenly between them. But if the page is 1200px wide, the first and last items will still be very left and very right, but the spacing in between the rest of them will be bigger so that it fills the page width. ?????????/ 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?

Hi All, I have the following layout. The problem I am having is when the "center" div has lots of text in it the text expands out of the "center" div. I would like the div to stretch with the content. Code: <div id="main"> <div id="mainTop"></div> <div id="mainContent"> <div id="left"></div> <div id="center"> Lots and lots of text goes here </div> <div id="right"></div> </div><!-- end of maincontent --> <div id="mainBottom"> <div id="left2"></div> <div id="center2"></div> <div id="right2"></div> </div> </div> CSS Code: html, body{ margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; min-height: 100%;}
div{ border: 1px solid black;}
/* Hack for IE, Reset to 100% height */
html, body, #main, #mainContent, #left, #center, #right, #left2, #right2{
height: 100%;
}
#left, #center, #right{
height: 100%;
}
/* End IE Hack */
#main{
position: relative;
width: 100%;
min-height: 100%;
}
#mainTop{
margin: auto;
position: relative;
height: 210px;
width: 850px;
text-align: left;
background-color: yellow;
}
#mainContent{
margin: auto;

Also shown he http://www.steudel.org/css/test.php The yellow divs represent images that border the content. The whole layout is supposed to be able to stretch vertically. I'm not sure why the text is not stretching the center div. TIA, Mark Hey gang, I'm sure this has been asked many times, but i cannot find the words to search for this. Luckily, I'm sure it is a quick fix. I'm not great with CSS, but I feel I have a strong understanding. However, I must not completely understand divs, because when I try to add padding to this "right content" div, it pushes itself behind the footer div (the bright green box): The box on the left is the "left-content", the box on the right is "right-content." Each of the boxes are floated left and right, respectively, and they are both in a "container" div that centers them. How can I make the footer div just be pushed down with content is added to either the right/left-content div? I can add a bunch of "<br />s after the last bit of content, and the footer moves down, but I feel it is cleaner to just add 20x padding. Any help is greatly appreciated! i have never encountered an issue like this... i isolated the code so i can work with it.... here is a link... A LINK problem is... a line of numbers is generated via php... there is no php working on this page... i just took the final resulting code from View Source, and copied it here... anyhow, a list of numbers is generated... i want to set a width, so the numbers will auto flow to another line... but when i set a width, the numbers just go outside the div... i put a 1px dashed border to show where the div is... it shows the correct width in firefox, but the data flows outside of the div... and in IE... the div is just the size of the text, regarless my set width I'm having trouble getting my dropdown navbar to stretch the width of the parent container. I can get it almost the right width but I have to make the width 107.16px which seems really stupid and wrong to me. But if I change it to 100% the list becomes vertical and all jacked up. Any clues on how to get it to stretch the entire width of the container? link Thanks! edit: I added the follow css to get rid of the white border at the end of the navbar. It looks good in FF but in IE there's a small gap now between the navbar & the side of the container. I'm hoping that there's a better way to do this. Code: #contact_nav a {border:none;} /*Removes right border on end of navbar*/
