CSS - [waaaa] Can A Div Be Set To Expand To Left Edge If Centered In A #wrapper
hello genius people...
please help this designer move more toward css after years of tables and images... I have a prob with ie 5 and 6 [not sure on 7] showing the content of a scrolling div outside of a containing frame. http://jodihelmer.com/portfolio.html and http://jodihelmer.com/journal.html the content in the scrolling frame shows up outside of the centered content. one possible fix I came up with is to increase the size of the divs at the edge and give them a background color. this seems to work. but, I also need to hide the content to thetop and left of the frame as well. is there a way to keep these divs within the centered wrapper while allowing them to expand to go to the edge of the browser window's relative size? or is there a better way to do this altogether? thanks so much. s Similar TutorialsI have been trying to figure out how to achieve this layout with css for about an hour. I'm sure it is something very simple that I am missing. Can anyone help? It looks like the image at the address below. tophermorrison.com/css_layout.jpg I have 3 divs 1.banner (100px tall 100% wide) 2.content (100% tall 650px wide) 3.image (100px x100px) I want the image to stay relative with the content and the content to be centered. The image should be 0 from the top and centered over the right edge of the content. Is this possible? Hey guys, I have been working on this for weeks and it is driving me nuts. I am trying to get the wrapper to expand to accomodate the content, but for some reason it wont expand. Any ideas? Here is the link: h$$p://digitallife.us/tutorials-t.html Thanks, Daniel I have nested my content divs within a centered wrapper div. the wrapper div is controlled by an external css file. when content is added to the nested divs they grow outside of the wrapper div. is there a way to force the wrapper to grow with the content like tables do? The CSS: #wrapper { margin-top: 20px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: auto; border-top-width: 2px; border-right-width: 2px; border-bottom-width: 2px; border-left-width: 2px; border-top-style: solid; border-right-style: solid; border-bottom-style: solid; border-left-style: solid; border-top-color: #000000; border-right-color: #000000; border-bottom-color: #000000; border-left-color: #000000; position: relative; width: 760px; background-color: #FFFFCC; left: auto; right: auto; height: 400px; z-index: 1; } The HTML: (attached) I've been trying to tweak the styling on hxxp://beecycle-co-uk.domain-ref.http.xenon.lon.periodicnetwork.com/Products.aspx?category=2&product=8 for a while now, and for some reason that page's #wrappper is aligned left, not center. I've picked through each element but I can't see any reason for it to do that. Am I missing something? How can i accomplish this with CSS? See image he hxxp://g.imagehost.org/0398/css.png (replace x with t) hi, i'm wondering whether anyone here knows something that i don't about this... here's some code: Code: <div style="position:absolute; left:30px; top:90px; width:380px; height:80px; border: 3px double #000000; padding:10px; padding-top:5px; line-height:150%"> <table width="380" height="80" border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0> <tr> <td valign="middle"> <div align="center" style="width:380px;"> <span style="font-size:11px; text-align:left;"> aligned to the left.<BR> but is it centered?<BR> i think not.<BR> </span> </div> </td> </tr> </table> </div> i'm able to achieve vertically centered text in the table cell, and i can center it or align it to the left, but so far in my experimenting i haven't found a way to have text that is aligned to the left, centered in the div. i could always just add a bunch of padding-left on the div so that the text is pushed over and looks nicer although it is not centered, but i'm wondering whether there's a way to do it the way i originally planned to.. thanks very much for looking at this. Hi guys. I am building a website where some pages are long (and the slidebar appears) and others are short (so the slidebar doesnt appear) The problem is that the page is centered and when the slidebar appears, the page moves a bit to the left. I could set the left-margin to X pixels but then it wont work as expected with different resolutions. Is there anyway to solve this problem? My site is here... css here... I have two .gif files I want to use in the header... the main one (header.gif) should be centered (as it is now)... while the other (header_spread.gif) should repeat on the left and right sides of the centered header.gif... The .gif files are transparent, so I can't use the spread as the entire background... I'd also like to refrain from making header.gif (don't care about header_spread.gif) a background or making the background of header.gif white, and have it in an <img> tag instead so I can dynamically change my header with the seasons... (though if background is the only way, I could have a header class for each season and have my script change it, so that solution would technically work too, but create a larger css file.) I need help formatting this properly... I can get the spread to work as a background for the entire div header, but that messes up the look of the center gif... Thanks Bryan I'm helping these fine folks fix a few little issues with their site but this one I can't seem to quite figure out. If you roll over the main menu you will see the sub menu slide down on the left. For the life of me I can't get it to line up under the main nav. I've tried many, many things. Can anyone provide a few hints, tips, suggestions?

How would I prefectly fit a table or div against the edge of a browser without any white space? I've tried setting the margin border to 0px without any success. I can't believe I need to ask this simple task but I am stuck. I have a container on top of screen for a horizontal menu on far right and text on far left. I use float right for text links on right and just display text on left no problems I thought. The links on the right go flush in top-right hand corner and I use margin-top to bring them down a bit. I can't move the links in from the far-right edge as it is flush againt it. I use margin-right/left to no effect. q) when using float right I want a space between the edge of right screen ? Im think to accomplish a rounded edge I could create an image and then create a small td for it with all borders set to 0 so it would fit the rest of the black thin border on the table. However is there a better way to accomplish this effect? I was thinking maybe float? Hello, I have a page that has one big table covering all areas. The problem is that there is a tiny white gap between edges of the table and the edge of the page. How do I eliminate this? Thanks, Jeff Hello, I have two columns, one is on the left and another in the middle (center). Left column is where I want it to be, central column is also aligned properly, however, it is below left column. I want it to be on the same level as left. See here see how it got below ? It is XHTML validated and CSS is fine too (some background color warnings). Plz help me to make central column go up. Thanks. I've been unable to replicate this issue in IE, but it's plaguing all other "free" browsers I use (Firefox, Galeon, etc.). Take a look at http://www.skudd.com/blog/view/1370 for example. The bar on the left is floated left, as are the label elements in my comment form. In the li of each form item, I have a br with the clear property set to "left". What I'm trying to accomplish is I want to clear the previous label, so as to prevent the "stair step" effect. Why would "clear: left;" in this case cause the element to clear everything that has been floated left? What should I try in place of it? I would like the content table on the website to stretch as to the edges of whatever space it is taking up. But when I view the page, the table doesn't stretch vertically down until it hits the bottom edge. Any ideas? PHP Code: .content { height: 100%; width: 100%; } Hi all, For some reason, my site (http://www.emineer.com) cuts off a bit when viewed on an iPhone. Here's a screen-capture to show what I mean: You can see that the right edge of the top blue background is getting cut off (it should stretch to the edge of the screen). It even happens on inner pages: As you can see, the right side of my site is cut off a bit. I have width set to 100%, so I'm not sure why this happens. It's not my phone because other sites work just fine. Any reason for this? Greetings, I have the following in a style sheet: Code:
.nameColumn {
width: 200px;
}
.groupColumn {
width: 100px;
}
.statusColumn {
width: 682px;
}
In the body of the page, I have table rows like this: Code: <tr> <td class=nameColumn>foo</td> <td class=groupColumn>bar</td> <td class=statusColumn>foobar</td> </tr> Even though I have declared widths, they show up differently on Windows IE7 than on Mac Safari. In IE, the "statusColumn" column falls short of the right edge of the window. Is there a way, with the width property, to make the rightmost column automatically stretch to the right edge of the browser window? If I use width:auto, it makes the cell only as wide as the text it contains. Thanks!! DM OK, so I have this nice clean form that I wanted to style up like the table-forms of old. I did it by floating the labels and form elements left, then clearing the labels left so they use their own lines. This works beautifully in Firefox and Safari, but IE (Win, at least) seems to think everything not cleared left should go on the same line! Is this a known IE bug/discrepancy? If so, is there a way to combat it without introducing meaningless elements to the markup (such as encasing each label/element pair in a div)? Here's some example HTML: html4strict Code: Original - html4strict Code <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <!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" lang="en" xml:lang="en"> <head> <title>Test</title> <style type="text/css"> @import url("style.css"); </style> </head> <body> <form name="form" action="test.php" method="post"> <label for="name">Name:</label> <input type="text" name="name" /> <label for="thoughts">Your Thoughts:</label> <textarea name="thoughts"></textarea> <label for="fun">Having fun?</label> <input type="checkbox" name="fun" value="yes" /> </form> </body> </html>
And the CSS: css Code: Original - css Code label { display: block; float: left; clear: left; width: 8em; margin-right: .5em; text-align: right; } input, textarea { display: block; float: left; }
