CSS - Css Issue; Looks Fine In Firefox Not Ie

i have a thick left hand border that does not show in firefox, the css is...


Code:

#container{
	margin: 0 auto;
  background-color:#ffffff;
  width:465px;
  border-left:335px solid #8FADB4;
  border-right:1px solid #8FADB4;
  border-top:1px solid #8FADB4;
  border-bottom:1px solid #8FADB4;
  background:  url('images/br_logo.jpg') no-repeat bottom right;

}

does anybody know why the left border does not show?

thanks

These are my three classes for the content section:

PHP Code:
#content {
margin-right:200px;
text-align:left;
background-color: #FFF;
border: 2px solid #E3EEF5;
}

#content_header {
background-image: url(images/layout/middlepanel/header_title_back.gif);
width: 100%;
height: 40px;
}

#content_inner {
padding: 10px;
color: #5A748C;
} 





And here is my HTML:

PHP Code:
<div id="content">
                        
                            <div id="content_header"><h1>Welcome to...... </h1></div>
                            
                            <div id="content_inner">
                            
                            <? include("includes/homepageloremipsum.php"); ?>
                            
                            </div>
                            
                        </div> 





The trouble is that the 100% width on the content_header div for some reason shunts the div down by about 200px on IE. It sits at the top if I select 99% width or anything other than 100% width but then I have a gap on the right.

Gods I hate IE. I test this in IE6 and it comes out completely wrong. Here's the CSS:

Code:

body  {
	font: 90% Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	background: #666666;
	margin: 0; /* it's good practice to zero the margin and padding of the body element to account for differing browser defaults */
	padding: 0;
	text-align: center; /* this centers the container in IE 5* browsers. The text is then set to the left aligned default in the #container selector */
	color: #000000;
	background-color: #FAFBFB;
	background-image: url(images/mainbackground.gif);
}

/* Tips for Elastic layouts 
1. Since the elastic layouts overall sizing is based on the user's default fonts size, they are more unpredictable. Used correctly, they are also more accessible for those that need larger fonts size since the line length remains proportionate.
2. Sizing of divs in this layout are based on the 100% font size in the body element. If you decrease the text size overall by using a font-size: 80% on the body element or the #container, remember that the entire layout will downsize proportionately. You may want to increase the widths of the various divs to compensate for this.
3. If font sizing is changed in differing amounts on each div instead of on the overall design (ie: #sidebar1 is given a 70% font size and #mainContent is given an 85% font size), this will proportionately change each of the divs overall size. You may want to adjust based on your final font sizing.
*/
.twoColElsLtHdr #container { 
	width: 100%;  /* this width will create a container that will fit in an 800px browser window if text is left at browser default font sizes */
	background: #FFFFFF;
	margin: 0px;
	border: 0px;
	text-align: left; /* this overrides the text-align: center on the body element. */
	background-image: url(images/mainbackground.gif)
} 
.twoColElsLtHdr #header { 
	background: #DDDDDD; 
	padding: 0px;  
	background-image:url(images/bg.jpg);
	width: 100%;}
	 
.twoColElsLtHdr #header h1 {
	margin: 0; /* zeroing the margin of the last element in the #header div will avoid margin collapse - an unexplainable space between divs. If the div has a border around it, this is not necessary as that also avoids the margin collapse */
	padding: 10px 0; /* using padding instead of margin will allow you to keep the element away from the edges of the div */
}

/* Tips for sidebar1:
1. Be aware that if you set a font-size value on this div, the overall width of the div will be adjusted accordingly.
2. Since we are working in ems, it's best not to use padding on the sidebar itself. It will be added to the width for standards compliant browsers creating an unknown actual width. 
3. Space between the side of the div and the elements within it can be created by placing a left and right margin on those elements as seen in the ".twoColElsLtHdr #sidebar1 p" rule.
*/
.twoColElsLtHdr #sidebar1 {
	float: left; 
	width: 200px;
	background-image:url(images/bg.jpg);
	padding-left: 5px; /* top and bottom padding create visual space within this div */
	height:400px;
}
.twoColElsLtHdr #sidebar1 h3, .twoColElsLtHdr #sidebar1 p {
	margin-left: 10px; /* the left and right margin should be given to every element that will be placed in the side columns */
	margin-right: 10px;
}

/* Tips for mainContent:
1. If you give this #mainContent div a font-size value different than the #sidebar1 div, the margins of the #mainContent div will be based on its font-size and the width of the #sidebar1 div will be based on its font-size. You may wish to adjust the values of these divs.
2. The space between the mainContent and sidebar1 is created with the left margin on the mainContent div.  No matter how much content the sidebar1 div contains, the column space will remain. You can remove this left margin if you want the #mainContent div's text to fill the #sidebar1 space when the content in #sidebar1 ends.
3. To avoid float drop, you may need to test to determine the approximate maximum image/element size since this layout is based on the user's font sizing combined with the values you set. However, if the user has their browser font size set lower than normal, less space will be available in the #mainContent div than you may see on testing.
4. In the Internet Explorer Conditional Comment below, the zoom property is used to give the mainContent "hasLayout." This avoids several IE-specific bugs that may occur.
*/
.twoColElsLtHdr #mainContent {
	margin: 0 1.5em 0 13em; /* the right margin can be given in ems or pixels. It creates the space down the right side of the page. */
	margin-top: 0px;
	margine-right: 400px;
	padding-top:0px;
	position:absolute;
	left: 50px;
	top: 145px;
	max-width: 700px;
	min-width: 700px;
	background-color:#d5d4b5;
	padding:10px;
	border-color: #420000;
	border-style:solid;
	border-size: 5px;
	min-height: 380px;
} 

As you can see, I am mostly working off of modified DW scripts. If you can help me solve this problem, I will definitely appreciate it.

width:100px;
background-color:#DDD4CE;
text-decoration:none;
font-weight:bold;
border:1px solid #663333;
}


why in IE do the link buttons look fine, with a width of 100px, and a nice gap between them. In FireFox, there is no gap between the buttons, and each button is only as wide as the text inside it.

Thanks in advance for any help

Hi everyone! I'm pulling my hair out on this one. I must confess I'm a bit green when it comes to css, but I've been playing around with this page and was finally able to get it looking the way I want in IE. If you look at it in Firefox or Netscape, the container doesn't expand at the bottom, and the links just spill out. Any ideas on how I can get this to expand like it does in IE?

Hi,

I have been battling with this issue for a while now and need the community's help here.
I am not the sole developer on this project and it's kind of difficult to work through other people's code - plus, I'm a developer, not a designer.

Anyow. Have a look at this page:

Article on Jakarta Globe Site

I implemented the drop down for the 'share article' feature. I'm using scriptaculous and costum-built JS to achive the effect. It's all good in IE - but you can see that in FF, the bread crumbs jump to the right when the drop down is activated. I have tried to implement a 'clearit' div like this:

CF Code:

Code:

<div class="article-body">
<div id="clearit"></div>

CSS:

Code:

#clearit {
display: block;
clear:both; }

With the effect, that in FF, the whole article jumps down a few pixels when the drop down is activated. (The bread crumbs don't jump to the right anymore.

I'm at loss now. Here's the CSS code for the relavant div's:

Code:

#article-heading {
 border-top:solid 4px black;
 background:url(../images/objects/module-head-bg.gif) repeat-x top; 	height:26px; }
.article-heading span {
 display:block;
 float:left;
 padding:5px 15px 5px 10px;
 height:16px; }
#slidedown_share {
	position:relative;
	width:123px;
	height:137px;
	background:#f4f2e6;
	border-left: solid #000 1px;
	border-right: solid #000 1px;
	border-bottom: solid #000 1px; 
	text-align:left;	
	left:510px;
}
.article-body {
	border-left:solid 1px black;
	border-right:solid 1px black;
	border-bottom:solid 1px black;
	background-color:white;
	padding:10px;
	margin-bottom:8px;
	font-size:11px;
}

Does anybody have an idea why this is happening and how I can avoid it?

Thank you for your help

Adrian

I apologize if this is supposed to be in the HTML forum. Since html code can be viewed from the source I thought I will post the css code to cross check since I couldn't figure out what is causing the problem. So thought I would post it in CSS forum.

I have the following site that displays fine in Firefox but is all a mess in IE.

Any help is greatly appareciated.

Basic, I know. I've probably just been staring at this thing too long. The building image to the right of the navbar displays correctly in Firefox, and has its top clipped off in IE 7 (not caring at this point about 6).

Hmm... I guess I can't post a link.

Crumbs. Well, not sure if its even possible to get help with this thing but maybe describing it with code will make the solution pop to my head.

I'm doing a quick rebuild of palladio-tours .com to sort of bring the code into this millennia. In my first run through using Firefox to check (mistake) I changed the navbar to a horizontal text CSS based <ul> underneath the Palladio Tours <img> with a <br>.

Now, in Firefox this works just fine, but in IE 7 (and 6, but again, not caring at this point), the yellow-ish building to the right of the nav list is clipped off exactly above the upper boundary of the list before it.

Let's see if I can post the relevant code. Html:

I wish I could post a link to the live example. It's a file called "shell.html" in the "css-test" folder at the above site. My brain obviously has gas, any help with this fart will be appreciated!

I have a blog found here buildingsolutionsmidlandsltd.co.uk/blog/

The left menu is the issue. In firefox its perfect, but in ie7 its not aligned right.

Please help, im tearing my hair out.

/* Template */
#content{
float:right;
width:75%;
}

#menu{
float:left;
width:20%;
}

/* Footer */
.footer{
background-color:#CCCCCC;
height:22px;
margin:auto auto 10px;
padding-left:10px;
padding-top:8px;
width:890px;
clear:both;
}

.footerlist {
font-size:10px;

Hello.

The address text on the following page doesn't line up. The address/phone/fax for each location should be side by side.

Firefox 3 works fine. IE6 the "Westwood Location" text moves down below.

What am I missing?'

Re-coding a site I designed to follow web-standards and having a small problem with a gap in ie.
Page-template
Page is working fine in firefox, but in internet explorer the "content" div is getting pushed down from the "framemain" div. I set padding and margin all to 0 and that didn't help. I could get around this if I abs position my nav, but I'd rather do it this way. Any thoughts or help appreciated.

Hi! Please help me again!

I cannot figure this out. I have tried striping out everything out to see if I could figure out what was causing it -- I can't. This one part is not working - everything else is fine. When I take this out I have no problems.

Basically, i'm trying to have an image with text next to it (without it wrapping around the image). In IE it works. In Firefox the text drops below the image.

Here is the code stripped out. Unfortunately, I cannot access and FTP to upload this - but I don't think that should matter.

Please, What am I doing wrong?

Code:

Hi all,

My first post, a request for help please! I have been designing a site and checking in Safari, just come to check in IE7 and its all over the place. I get the feeling that there is a simple bug fix I need to add, but with deadline approaching fast (tomorrow am client reviews the site) my mind is all over the place!

If anyone would be kind enough to view:
cavendish-cs.co.uk/beta/

You will see in IE7 the top image will not sit next to the navigation. Check in Safari or Firefox and you can see how it should look

Any help greatly appreciated

Thanks

Craig

I have a three column layout (25%, 50%, 25%) which works fine in IE7 and firefox but not IE6. In IE6 the right column rolls down (would not fit in the space). What would be the best fix for this issue ?

Here is my CSS.
#main3Column {
float: left;
width: 50%;
}

#leftColumn {
/* IE7 1px rounding error */
float:left;
width:25%;
margin-left:-1px;
}

#rightColumn {
float:left;
width:25%;
}

.columnBoxLeft {
padding: 0px 0px 0px 6px;
margin: 5px 0px 5px 0px;
}

.columnBoxMiddle {
padding: 0px 5px 0px 5px;
margin: 5px 0px 5px 0px;
}

.columnBoxRight {
padding: 0px 5px 0px 0px;
margin: 5px 0px 5px 0px;
}


HTML

<div id="leftColumn">
<div class="columnBoxLeft">
<h2 class="channeltitle">Left Column</h2>
<p>Your Text Here</p>
</div>

<div id="main3Column">
