Hi everyone, I am having a problem where my text is resonably small and the paragraph spaces between them look silly because they seem much too big for the font size. Please have a look at my example below: CSS: Code:
div.orange{
background-color: #993400;
color: #FFFFFF;
width: 174px;
font-size: 10px;
font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-weight: none;
text-align: justify;
padding: 3px
}
.orangeHilight{
color: #000000;
font-weight: bold;
}
HTML: Code: <div class="orange"><p>DO YOU KNOW?</p> <p class="orangeHilight">Suppliers are shown per your choice of category:</p> <p>PLATINUM suppliers are shown first, with details of their companies and hospitality experience, contact details and a link to their own web sites for a closer look at their products. They also have pictures in the listing.<br> GOLD suppliers are shown next, but without pictures.<br> SILVER suppliers are listed with limited information and contact details.</p> <p>We also have a number of free listings for suppliers not currently registered with Hotelstuff. These are suppliers who may be of interest to you. Our toll free desk can help you with current contact information.</p></div> See what I mean. So is there anyway to reduce the space between paragraphs? Thanks to anyone who can help me out! Kenneth I'm a CSS newbie and this is my very first page that I have to make for a class. I can't figure out how to move my text below/center my headline. Every time it gets close (when I use margins) it jumps right to the bottom. P.S. If my code seems strange it's because I'm not really sure what I'm doing yet, so if you have any advice/better ways to achieve the same effect, please let me know HTML: <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8"/> <title>Welcome to Jolie Manor Bed and Breakfast</title> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon"/> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style3.css"/> </head> <body id="body" onload=""> <div id="wrap"> <img src="manor.jpeg" alt="Manor" class="floatleft" /> <h1> Jolie Manor <br /> <span class="smaller">Bed and Breakfast</span></h1> <p class="blocktext"> Escape to Jolie Manor, a luxury waterfront bed and breakfast on the eastern shore, where the Chesapeake Bay is aglow in warm sunsets, where towering oaks gently kiss the skyline and where you can let your body rest and your mind wander.</p> <div id="navcontainer"> <ul id="navlist"> <li id="active"><a href="#" id="current">Home Page</a></li> <li><a href="assignment32.html">Amenities</a></li> <li><a href="#">Rates</a></li> <li><a href="#">Local Features</a></li> <li><a href="#">Contact Us</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </body> </html> CSS: body { width: 800px; height: 620px; background-color: rgb(171,214,212); } #wrap { width: 100%; height: 100%; background-image:url(book2.tif); background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position: center; } h1 { color: rgb(69,38,26); font-family: serif; margin-right: 150px; margin-top: 100px; margin-left: 0px; float: right; font-size: 2em; } .blocktext { margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 0px; width: 10em; float: right; margin-top: 170px; margin-bottom: 0px; } p { color: rgb(69,38,26); font-family: serif; } .floatleft { margin-left: 60px; margin-top: 145px; } .smaller { font-size: .75em; } #navcontainer { background: #f0e7d7; margin: 0 auto; padding: 1em 0 0 0; font-family: georgia, serif; text-transform: lowercase; position:fixed; top:5px; } #navcontainer ul { padding: .2em 0; margin: 0; list-style-type: none; background-color: rgb(69,38,26); color: #FFF; width: 100%; font: normal 90% arial, helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center; position:fixed; top:5px; } li { display: inline; } li a { text-decoration: none; background-color: rgb(69,38,26); color: #FFF; padding: .2em 1em; border-right: 1px solid #fff; } li a:hover { background-color: #369; color: #fff; } I have a bunch of text with nice formatting using paragraphs and I want to have a spacing between the paragraphs. I could easily do that by: Code: p { margin-bottom: 25px; }
But that will make it so the last paragraph to also have a margin like that, how can I make it so that the last paragraph have a bottom margin of 0? Just the last one in that bunch of text. Now that, this is dynamic content generated by WordPress. WordPress text is place using paragraphs but the last paragraph on each post also has a margin that shouldn't be there, or my current design of course. Is there a way around this? Hey folks, i'm just doing some experimenting with css right now, and hit a snag. if you look at the page, you'll see 'howdy' inside the top negative. i'm trying to format the text to fit inside the middle section of the negatives...one negative per paragraph. Whenever i try formatting it, it shifts the image downward, and i don't know what to do to fix it. CSS Code:
.ptext {
font:10px verdana, arial, sans-serif;
color:white;
padding:50px 60px;
width:350px;
height:375px;
}
p {
background:black url(images/negative.gif) no-repeat left;
height:375px;
width:350px;
}
HTML Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>black/white - some kinda website</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <link href="35mm_styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> </head> <body> <div id="container"> <h1></h1> <p> <span class="ptext">howdy.</span> </p> <p></p> <p></p> <p></p> <p></p> <p></p> <p></p> <p></p> <p></p> </div> </body> </html> any help'd be greatly appreciated. I think this is a very basic quesiton, but I am stumped with it. How can I make a paragraph that will be a specific width in the middle of the page for example regardless of the size of the monitor or browser window - that is, the paragraph will stay the same width even though it is on a page that will stretch to fill the entire window? This can be done of course with tables, but I would like to know how to do it with CSS. The margin property seems of no help because you must assume a given size of the page or parent element. I have used this in my CSS: p { margin-top: 0.5em;} But it renders differently in IE6 and Netscape 7. Is there a method to get this equal in both ? Thanks. Ok, I know IE is buggy, but this one has been driving me nuts for a while now... I'm applying borders to the edges of a div as shown by A list apart. Pretty simple stuff and I have it working perfectly under Mozilla Firefox. IE on the other hand isn't taking it so well (imagine that). The thing is, it's like nothing I've ever seen. I changed some positioning on the page one night and ever since then it's been doing it. The lower right hand image is just not rendering. What's worse, is if I add a border to the element it will displace things as a border should but the border itself doesn't show up! I don't know how I managed to muck things up this way, but I would appreciate a hand with it if anyone has any ideas. Here is the IE Screenshot and the Firefox Screenshot Also... The CSS and The HTML Finally nearing completion of my site upgrade and fixing some minor visual problems. One of them being that the spacing between paragraphs is off. In that paragraphs are flushed against one another. After googling this for some time I found a fix that works perfect in opera and firefox but ie just refuses to go along. So my question is what do I do for it to work in IE? The code that works for FF and Opera is: Code:
p.normTxt + p.normTxt {
margin-top: 1em;
}
In IE the above code doesnt' work and acts like it's not even there. I really don't want to do margin-top, margin-bottom b/c that introduces another problem of only spacing if it's a middle paragraph. Thanks. Hi, I'm getting a weird problem when viewing my client's site with IE6, however, it works fine in IE7 and FF. Here's the link: http://www.groundedgroup.com/client...or-sale/554421/ As you'll notice, the middle area containing the description of the home is messed up. Basically, the background resizes as you move the browser scroll bar up and down. Never seen this before. Does the same with the comment area below, too. Any ideas what's causing this? Thanks in advance. I read somewhere that we can format the first letter of each paragraph separately from the rest of it by CSS. Is possible and how? Do you guys know if there is any way to change the style of only the first letter in a paragraph? For example: "The duck is dead and it can't come back to life." The letter T would get an effect such as switch of baseline, color, bgcolor and indentation. How is this possible without having to add a class to that particular first letter all the time. I am using this in a weblog system so it would need to be added in a template. Any help? Thanks! I'm trying to get something that looks like this: Here is the xhtml: Code: <div id="container">
<div class="design_box">
<img src="images/image.png" alt="" />
<h1>Header goes here</h1>
<p>Paragraph goes here</p>
</div>
<div class="design_box">
<img src="images/image.png" alt="" />
<h1>Header goes here</h1>
<p>Paragraph goes here</p>
</div>
<div class="design_box">
<img src="images/image.png" alt="" />
<h1>Header goes here</h1>
<p>Paragraph goes here</p>
</div>
</div>
Here is the relevant css: Code: .design_box {
display: block;
margin-bottom: 17px;
}
#row_a_right_web_design img {
float: left;
}
.design_box h1 {
color: #fbfbfb;
font: bold .9em Tahoma, arial, sans;
margin-bottom: 4px;
}
.design_box p {
color: #c4c2c2;
}
Needless to say, the above css does not produce the desired outcome. I'm having a serious brain-fart as to what the best way is to tackle this. Thanks in advance. Here's the code. Code: <div class="entry"> <p>Blah blah blah</p> <div class="postmetadata"> <div class="hide"> Blah blah blah </div> Blah blah blah </div> And the CSS. Code: #content div.post div.entry {
float:left;
margin:-5px auto auto 6px;
width:570px;
font-size:12px;
line-height:20px;
}
#content div.post div.entry p {
margin:0;
padding:0;
background:white;
}
#content div.post div.entry div.postmetadata {
margin:10px auto 20px auto;
font-size:11px;
line-height:19px;
border-top:1px solid #bcbcbc;
}
#content div.post div.entry div.postmetadata div.hide {
display:none;
}
Apparently I have to set background:white; to the #content div.post div.entry p for div.postmetadata's border-top to appear in IE7. Firefox and IE8 displays this correctly. Any ideas? CSS: Code:
.news {
background-color:#eaeaea;
border: solid 1px #999;
width: 500px;
margin-top: 10px;
}
.news img {
float: left;
padding: 10px 0 10px 10px;
}
.news p {
float: right;
width: 350px;
margin: 0;
padding: 10px 10px 10px 0;
}
HTML: Code: <div class="news"> <img src="http://album-images.lala.com/servlet/ArtWorkServlet/432627039265781052/l" width="120" height="180" /> <p>One of the most impressive flights ever has to be landing at Male airport in the Maldives. As the plane descends, stretching before you is a sea of azure blue reefs and atolls. The engines ease off and the plane gently floats down, almost skimming the water before finally touching down. Male airport sits on it's own private Atoll so transfers to your hotel are either by speedboat or, if you're lucky, by sea plane. Beats descending into Heathrow airport and then fighting your way to the train or bus station any day.</p> </div> Logically, a grey box should wrap around it. Can anyone explain to a CSS newbie why this doesn't work? i have a page where i float a block of text to the right. at the bottom of that text, there is a graphic that creates a footer for that block. in ie, it looks fine. but in firefox it's got 12px of space below the text (as opposed to ABOVE the graphic.) because it looks incorrect in ff and ok in ie, my hunch is that i've done something wrong - since ff is so much more reliable than ie. two last things. when i place a 1px border at the bottom of the text, the bottom margin disappears. but if i use a 0px border, the space remains. also, if i remove the <p> tags from within the text, the problem resolves itself. i do not address p formatting within the css document. this is my html: Code: <div id=outerwrapper> <div class=sidebar> <div id=sidebartext style="background: #acba6e url(images/sidebarbg.gif) 0px 0px repeat-y;"> <img src="images/image1.jpg" align=right> Some text. <p> <em>Some text</em> </div> <div class=sidebarbottom> <img src="images/image2.png"> </div> </div> <div class="maincontent"> <h1 style="text-align: right; line-height:120%; border-right: 30px solid #ffffff;">Some text</h1> More text <p> 123 Main Street, Your City, USA 512.555.1212 </div> </div> and this is my css: Code: html, body{

i would appreciate any help you can provide. this has stolen hours from my day. I have two easy questions about CSS... 1. Can two font-size settings interfere with each other if the they overlap? For example, suppose I have a page set to have the font at size 14px. Then within that page, I do a <p> tag that sets the font size to 10px. Is the font size relative (do they add, multiply, whatever), or is 10px absolute? It seems like 32px is a lot for a heading I'm making, but that's how big I needed to set it for it to look like a heading... It wouldn't show up super-big on another computer with a different browser, would it? 2. Is there any way in CSS to change the amount of space before and after a <p> tag? I have one paragraph right after another, and I want to get rid of some of the space that is between them. Thanks in advance. Hi, I had this working but somehow it's not working again. The problem I am having is that scroll bars are showing up in my iframe in Firefox, Opera, and Safari, but not IE7 and IE6. Here is the link: http://www.caillouette.com/NewCatsMeow/ I know I need to tighten up my style sheet, but if someone could tell me how to solve this, I would be very happy. Here's the iframe code in the index page: Code: <div id="bodyInfo"> <iframe name="mainBody" width="770" height="602" src ="body.html" scrollbars="NO" border="0"> </iframe> <!-- end #bodyInfo --></div> Hi, I want to produce the same text in html-pdf-epub. This is a short-story for which I want to define two styles, one for the sections "normal" and one for paragraphs with dialogue. The two styles should be identical, the only difference being that the style paragraph should begin with a hyphen "-". How can I do? thanks Stefano (Roma-Italia) PS I tried some tricks how to do the same styles with different names, and then replace the code style "paragraph" by adding "-" but then InDesign, passing to epub, interprets the hyphen as a beginning list and is a mess. |
