CSS - Input Element Box Height Using Css
I seem to recall that CSS1 or 2 had a property that could be set to specify the height of a text input box or check box or radio button, but it's been a while since I've done it and I can't find it in my notes or find the search terms that will turn up what I'm looking for, or even the page that I did it on. I thought
Code:
<input type="text" style="{ height: Xpx; }">
would do it, but it doesn't. Here's some of my code ... xhtml Code: Original - xhtml Code <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "https://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"></meta> <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-US"></meta> <style type="text/css"> body { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/14px Veranda,Arial,sans-serif } div { } table { width: 100%; border: none } tr { } td { } .right { text-align: right } ul { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; list-style: none } li { padding-left: 25px } label { } input { font: normal normal normal 9px/11px Arial, Veranda, sans-serif; } .textrightinput { text-align: right; height: 18px } .textleftinput { text-align: left; height: 18px } .buttoninput { height: 18px } </style> <title>Donations</title> </head> <body> <!-- Begin Body Table --> <div> <form id="form" action="https://my.domain.com/donate/" method="post"> <fieldset> <legend>Select the project(s) you wish to support.</legend> <input type="hidden" name="cc" value="checkEntries" /> <table> <tr> <td> <ul> <li><label><input type="checkbox" name="projects[]" value="Doin-it-Myself Hydropower Project" checked="checked" />Doin-it-Myself Hydropower Project</label></li> <li><label><input type="checkbox" name="projects[]" value="Joe Cell Development Project" checked="checked" />Joe Cell Development Project</label></li> <li><label><input type="checkbox" name="projects[]" value="Site Maintenance/Upkeep" checked="checked" />Site Maintenance/Upkeep</label></li> <li><label><input type="checkbox" name="projects[]" value="extra" onclick="javascript:enable('form','other')" /> Other: <input id="text" class="textleftinput" type="text" name="projects[]" value="blah blah" disabled="disabled" /></label></li> <li class="center"><label> Amount: $<input id="text" class="textrightinput" type="text" name="amount" value="25" title="Enter the dollar value you intend to donate." /></label></li> </ul> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="right" colspan="2"> <input class="buttoninput" type="submit" value="Next⇒" title="Click to verify that we correctly received your entries." /> </td> </tr> </table> </fieldset> </form> </div> <!-- End Body Table --> </body> </html>

Please notify me of the moronic mistakes I am making... thanks. I'm trying to create an image-navigation system using the popular css sprites technique. However, on the very first image (doesn't occur with any images following), IE6 (and below) increases the height of that image. Here's a very simple code. There are no other codes or elements to interfere with this issue, and yet, it is still present. Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"

At http://www.rietgors.tudelft.nl/combo/ you can see what I'm trying to do. I'd like the two elements to have either the same top or bottom, or have both elements centered vertically in the enclosing DIV. Can this be done using just CSS? Hi everybody Is there a way to inherit the height of a surrounding table cell? <td> <a href="..." style="display: block;">...</a> <!-- Should have the same height as the td --> </td> Thanks for help :-) Josh So, what would I like to have? A css rule that would affect visual appearance of only the <input type="submit"> elements (or any other sub-type of <input>, but again, affecting that sub-type only). Is it possible to do? How? I have a lot of .NET pages with a LOT of submit buttons (within datagrids and regular buttons too). There is a way to do it programaticaly in source code of .NET pages, but I'd like an elegant solution like css, which could be done without recompiling entire project. Any help is highly appreciated. Hi, My page has 3 elements: one at the top(header banner), one in the middle (a middle content area) and one at the bottom (footer banner). Now I want those positions to remain intact regardless of the number of lines output in the middle element. The content is going to be determined at runtime by a server-side routine so I don't want to use a fixed positioning for the footer banner. I want it to be displayed at the bottom - after the middle content is displayed. And I want the middle content to be visible in the page i.e. I don't want a scroll area within the page. I have tried various approaches and read up on positioning but so far have not been able to do it using css. Any help is much appreciated. Jim I have an navigation menu that I am building as an unordered list. What I have is an image rollover that appears at the bottom of the navigation menu when the cursor hovers over one of the first level links by using a span within the link that has its display set to none, and then set to absolute positioned directly below the navigation menu on a:hover. Here is an example: Code:
<ul>
<li>
<a href="link1.html" id="link1">Link<span></span></a>
</li>
</ul>
.link a { some link height }
.link a span { display: none; }
.link a:hover span {
position: abolute;
top: (some link height * the number of links);
background-image: (some image url)
width: (image width)
height: (image height)
}
Appearance: ------ Link1 Link2 Link3 Link4 ------- ------- Rollover Image to appear here ------- The problem that I have is that since the rollover image is positioned absolutely, if the size of the list of links changes (IE with sub-links in the list) it slides under or over where I have the rollover image placed. IE ------ Link1 sublink1 sublink2 Link2 Link3 Link4 ------- will break my scheme. Is there a way to get the span within the link to show up relative to the bottom of the <ul> element, or at the bottom of an element that contains the whole shebang? If I cant get this to work, I'm going to be forced to adopt the existing tables/javascript based template for our site, and I'd hate hate hate to do that. thanks. Hi all, I am trying to automate everything on my test website and I have one more angle to cover. In effect, I want to adjust the line-height property (which I can do) based on the number of files within a specific folder (PHP and already done). The more files in the folder, the lower the line-height value must be. This is to ensure if I copy additional files into the folder, then the navigation menu (which is PHP reading files in this particular folder) will alter the CSS line-height property accordingly to ensure it can never exceed a certain height. Sounds wierd? go to www.re3.org.uk (next to the RE3 image, I have a list of hyperlinks which are obtained from files within the folder) My problem, when adjusting the CSS property (which is set as cm in *.css file) in javascript, it doesn't correspond correctly, the line-height property in javascript doesn't appear to be work in cm but some other measurement. Does anyone know how to change what unit of measurement Javascript works in? Or does anyone know what unit of measurement javascript uses when adjusting line-height / line-width values? I want to create a mini-algorithm that works out the appropriate line-height based on the image height (got that already) and the number of files in the folder (got that too) so the menu automatically adjusts to fit. Whew! Hello Just recently I had an idea for a page I wanted to make, the design is basically a 3-column layout with no traditional header or footer, the height of all three columns should run the length of the window/page height the left and rightmost column would have a fixed width or a width in em, the center column width should fill the space in between. If the content is short all columns should extend to the height of the page window, but if the content in any of the columns is longer than the window height they should all extend to reach the bottom of the page and accommodate the content length In my first attempt things didn't go so well, results varied wildly across browsers so I decided to start from scratch bit by bit Bellow is the point at which I reach consistent but undesired behaviour, I have validated and tested the code in Firefox 3/Pale Moon, Internet Explorer 8, Chromium 9, and Opera 11 I would like the end result to work in the above browsers as well as IE7 if possible I should point out now that im not interested in using faux-columns, the layout should not require images, I also wish to have absolute-positioned elements in the columns some time later Code:

In the above example it works as long as the content within the columns is shorter than the window height, but if you re-size the window so that the text in the right or left column goes beyond the page, and then scroll to the bottom, the columns do not extend to the bottom of the page so there is a large gap where the content overflows beyond the column What I would like to do from this point is make the columns extend to the bottom of the page when this happens, but I'm not sure how best to proceed I also have a version of the above code which uses floated left and right columns instead of absolute positioned ones, would it be better to work from that? or does it not really matter Thanks in advance It seem that everytime I added the image tag, the div'x area get bigger in IE but not in Mozilla/Firefox browser. So, I thought by added the "margin-bottom:-360px;" to the div would fix it but it had an opposite effect. Meaning it worked in IE but Mozilla show a vertical scrollbar. So, does anyone know how can I make the <img> overlap one another without being stacked on one after another in height for IE if I take out the "margin-bottom: -360px;"? Thanks... Code:
div.divBox1
{
width: 286px;
height: 359px;
float: left;
}
div.divClearFloat
{
clear: both;
height: 0px; /* For IE Stupidity (it added some spaces after clearing the float) */
font-size: 1pt; /* For IE Stupidity (minimum height only work with current font-size somewhere) */
}
div.divDottedLineAdvertisementSeperator1
{
width: 575px;
height: 3px;
background-color: #ff0000;
font-size: 1pt; /* For IE Stupidity (minimum height only work with current font-size somewhere) */
}
Code: <div class="divBox1"> <div style="margin-bottom:-360px;"> <img src="images/doctor.jpg" style="position:relative;top:0px;left:0px;z-index:2;"> <img src="images/we_help.jpg" style="position:relative;top:-360px;left:0px;z-index:1;"> </div> </div> <div class="divClearFloat"></div> <div class="divDottedLineAdvertisementSeperator1"></div> Hello everybody! I have been having a big problem with my webpage for a long time now and hope I can find an answer to my problem with your help. I want a div that contains the content of my pages (which varies in length depending on the individual page) to stretch the length of my page, but it only stretches the length of the window. Here's the HTML and CSS: HTML (I only included the very basic structure): <html> <body> <div class="container"> <div id="content"> <div id="..."></div> <div id="..."></div> <div id="..."></div> <div id="..."></div> </div> </div> </body> </html>` CSS: html, body { height: 100%; font-family: Arial; font-size: 10px; color: #000000; background: #FFF url(../../images/body.png) no-repeat center 40px; margin: 0; position: relative;} .container { height: 100%; width: 960px; margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; position: relative;} #content { width: 939px; min-height: 100%; position: relative; top: 210px; left: 6px; box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #666; -moz-box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #666; -webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #666; background-color: #FFF;} I tried to set the content div to overflow: auto, but that includes a scroll bar for the content div that I do not want. It does, however, create the desired effect of the shadow and background of the #content div all the way to the end of the page. Am I missing anything? I thought min-height would work, but it doesn't! It only stretches the content div to page height and everything else is overflow, but without the content div's background color and shadow. Does anybody maybe see where the problem lies? Thank you so much in advance for your help. I've never done much CSS work, but I know this has to be an easy fix. Each DIV appears to be 10px higher when viewed in IE. I want them to be 8px high and they end up being 18px high. In Firefox, Netscape, and Opera it works fine. Anyone mind correcting this imbarrassing little problem? Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

If you look at the bottom of the page at www.res-technologies_DOT_com/index.php?jos_change_template=restech2 in both IE and FF, you will see that it looks fine in IE, but in FF the page length is extended by exactly the height of the header image at the top of the page. Trying to figure out what's causing this is driving me nuts! Can anyone help? thx dh Can anyone explain the difference between the two? For example, what is the difference between: this: element element {} div p { } and this: element > element { } div > p { } I don't understand it and have not found an explanation in tireless searching. Thx! My web page has a display bug in IE 5+ on Windows. Specifically, I have a DIV within which I wish to place two images. The two images are the same height and width, and I want to layer them (the top one is a PNG with transparency, but I have already solved that problem, this is a positioning problem) exactly on top of each other. I have done this by positioning them relatively within the DIV. The first image is top:0;left:0 and the second is top:-150;left:0 (the images are 150 px tall). They layer fine, but the DIV is twice the height (as if the second image were still following the first, making he DIV 300 px tall). I have tried many things and am stumped. Here is the site: URL Here is the relevant CSS: Code: #bannerPhoto {
border-bottom-width: 1px;
border-bottom-style: solid;
border-bottom-color: #000000;
height: 150px;
width: 750px;
}
#bannerPic {
position: relative;
z-index: 1;
left: 0px;
top: 0px;
}
#bannerText {
position: relative;
z-index: 2;
left: 0px;
top: -150px;
}
And the HTML: Code: <div id="bannerPhoto"> <div id="bannerPic"><img src="../images/bannerPhotos/image.jpg" height="150" width="750" /></div> <div id="bannerText"><img src="../images/text-cover.png" height="150" width="750" /></div> </div> Anyone? Thanks, Denver. I am having a problem trying to get one column match the height of another. Within a large DIV box, I created two columns separated by about 20 px. I floated one to the left, then pushed one over to the right. Both boxes will expand depending on the amount of content, but I would like them to match the same height. The boxes will be used throughout the entire website, so it would not make sense to create a background image to try and trick it into being the same height.. or actually specifying the height. Is there any way to tell the left box to be the same height as the right box?? I tried to link to my site but it won't let a new member link to a website. i came across a solution for this a while ago and can't repeat the result i have 3 columns, div format with a left left right float. 1 2 3 #2 contains content that varies with the page, #1 and #3 contain background elements. i need 1 and 3 to extend the full height of 2, even tho the actual content is much less. thanks for the help! Hi Guys, Consider the following box: PHP Code: <div style=border: 1mm black Solid; width: 148mm; height: 98mm;'> </div> 148mm + 1mm + 1mm = width of 150mm 98mm + 1mm + 1mm = width of 100mm Now why does neither firefox or ie manage to get it? Firefox is about 2mm out and ie is about 3mm out? Any ideas or is it some quirk? Charlie |
