CSS - Clear:both - Amount Of Vertical Space
Hi,
I'm trying to avoid using absolute positioning (and using a margin or padding) to vertically place two divs. clear:both seems to be close but it clears double the amount of space that I want. 1. What determine's how much space is cleared? 2. Is it a problem that neither of the divs is floated? http://www.sabahseaside.com/sti/testindex.php Code: #homecontent {
position:relative;
margin:10px;
}
#homecontent p {
text-align:justify;
margin:0 1em 2em;
}
.hometop {
margin:0; padding: 0;
border: 1px solid black;
}
.homebottom {
margin:0; padding: 0;
border: 1px solid black;
clear:both;
/*margin-top:4em;*/
}
http://www.sabahseaside.com/sti/layout.css Oh yeah, and the images in those divs are floated! AHHH! Similar TutorialsHi I am displaying images in a loop with help of DIVs so that they are displayed in a row. I want to show some text after them for which I am using a new DIV, to display the text beneath the ending of image DIVs I am using Code: <div style='clear: both;'> </div> it works but it displays the text in the very next line after the last Image's div. I want to give some space, for this I can simply use <br /> but I thought it might be possible with margin-top in the div, but when I write Code: <div style='clear: both; margin-top: 10%'> </div> it doesn't affect anything. Is it possible to give some space within div settings? Hi Guys, The following code works fine in FF but in IE(tested in IE7) it shows gap/space between first and second row. I've attached the screenshots of two browser. Code:

My site I am redesigning this site for a theater camp company. I want to create the effect of stage lights shining with a image rollover and am partly there. I am stuck now because I want to use an HR as the cross beam with images of stage lights directly below (take a look at the site to understand). I do not know how, or if it's possible, to line up the images directly below the HR (bar) so there is no space at all. Any help? i have two divs on top of eachother with images in each. there is a space i can't get rid of in IE..looks perfect in firefox. i've tried cutting out the margins and padding to no avail. seems like ie regularly has spacing problem from google searches but none of their fixes have worked yet. This is my first css based site...i'm having a nightmare time and wonder why this is so much better than tables when its taking me 4 hours in css what takes me 5 minutes with tables? that being said if you go he www . chhs . unh . edu / v3 . html on the right side here is the issue: in FF the contained divs are larger than the containing div in IE there is like 20 pixels of space at the top of the first containted div here is the code for this section, the sidebar is the container and the other 2 are the divs inside, quicklinks is the first one. Code:
.twoColFixRtHdr #sidebar1 { width: 300px; float:right; text-align:left; background-color:#00F; padding:0px; display:inline; line-height:100%; }
div#quicklinks{
display:block;
width:300px;
margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
background-image:url(/images/v2/quicklinks_bg.png);
background-position:top right;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-color:#AEAE5D;
padding: 5px;
color:#FFF;
vertical-align:top;
}
div#photo_gallery_links{
width: 300px;
margin: 10px 0px 0px 0px;
background-image:url(/images/v2/photosbg.png);
background-position:top right;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-color:#283C6F;
padding: 5px;
color:#FFF;
}
can anyone help me? i haven't used a board like this in like 8 years so i'm sorry if i'm doing it wrong. thanks! I have a region with a div, an image and another div stacked vertically. For some reason, there are a few pixels of blank space between the image and the bottom div. http://www.brucethorn.com/index.php...maritime-sunday On another page, I have regions with a "line-height + vertical-align:middle" centering of an image that make up thumb nails. There too is a few pixels of blank space, but at the top and images, pushing them down and slightly outside of the div that contains each of them. http://www.brucethorn.com/index.php/paintings I suspect these are the same problem, but I could be wrong. The issue is most visable in FF, and noticable in Opera. I only see something sporadic for the second occurence in IE Code: body {background-color:#999999; margin:0px; padding:0px; border:0px; text-align:center; font-family:"Courier New", Courier, mono;}
h1.header {height:16px; width:800px; _width:776px; font-size:100%; font-weight:bold; margin:0px 0px 0px 24px; text-align:left; background-color:#333333;}
h2.header {margin:0px; font-size:90%; font-weight:bold;}
div {text-align:left;}
h2.infoleft {text-align:left; height:16px; width:576px; font-size:90%; margin:0px 0px 0px 24px; _margin:0px 0px 0px 12px;float:left;}
h2.inforight {text-align:right; height:16px; width:176px; font-size:90%; margin:0px 24px 0px 0px; _margin:0px 0px 0px 0px;float:left;}
div.black {background-color:#000000; color:#999999;}

div.block2 {margin:8px 0px 8px 12px; _margin:0px 0px 0px 4px;}
div.block3 {margin:8px 0px 0px 12px;}
img {border:0px; margin:0px; padding:0px;}

I'm going through hell trying to make a site look the same in IE and Firefox. The biggest problem is the gaping spaces IE adds between elements. What is the best way to fix this? Example at patrolmag.com/new. Any advice or help would be most appreciated. P.S. How the page looks in Firefox 3 is ideal. I just need to make at least IE7 come somewhere close to matching it. I am trying to style a css layout. I keep getting a vertical space between two different block containers. here is the html: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <title></title> <meta name="keywords" content="" /> <meta name="description" content="" /> <link href="default.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <div id="header"> <div id="menu"> </div> </div> </div> </body> </html> Here is the CSS: Code:
#wrapper{
margin: 0 auto;
width: 977px;
}
#header {
margin: 0;
background: url(images/header_01.jpg) no-repeat 0 0;
width: 977px;
height: 198px;
}
#menu{
margin: 0;
background: url(images/header_02.jpg) no-repeat 100% 0;
float: left;
width: 977px;
height: 44px;
position:relative; top: 100%
}
My theory: the top part of the header is 154 px tall. The bottom part is 44px tall. That makes 198px height. so with header being 198px tall, and the smaller image with a relative position 100% down from the top should correctly line up the two images. But yet I have a HUGE gap?!?! Why? Even if I put 154px instead of 100% for top ... it will not line up correctly. I am trying to style a form using CSS instead of tables but am getting unwanted space above form elements when i use float:right to position them to the right of the prompt text. I have spent some time reading about the problem which appears to be an error with IEs rendering of CSS. I have tried several solutions posted on the web with no success. Can anyone recommend a solution to my problem.

I have text "username" with the textbox below it but there is like 25 pixels of vertical space between them. Brad Argh. Tried a number of variations on this probably simple task. Nonetheless: In this example how do I get the 'sidebar' to fill the vertical space of the container, and ensure the 'footer' remains positioned at the bottom (which it currently does) http://www.mandgweb.net/css_test/css_test.html Thank you Hi, Does anyone know how to veritcally align text using CSS? like <tr valign='middle'> when using tables. My page is on: http://www.3003online.com/demos/ecoceylon/v2/ You can see a difference in the "Home - About Us - Products - Contact Us" links when viewing from IE and Mozilla Firefox. Basically, I would like the text to be centered vertically in the bar... but CSS by default puts it on top. I tried adding padding,which helped in IE... but Firefox still shows the links a bit higher than they should be.,... any ideas how to fix this? Also, a different problem in case anyone knows how to fix it... you can see a small brown bar on the top bar. It is 50px in height. But I have no idea how to make its width as wide as the remainder of the page (this would change with different resolutions). The main content of the page is 760px wide. I would like a brown box next to that, which is 50px in height and the remainder width. Any ideas? "width: auto;" doesn't work unfortunately [ this is a follow up to my previous thread http://forums.devshed.com/showthread.php?t=270438 Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much. Hey gang, I'm trying to change the indent of an unordered list. I have made this mock up just using spaces to illustrate what I'm trying to accomplish: I mark it up as: <ul> <li>Perennials</li> <ol>Artemisia</ol> ... ... </ul> I cannot get the <ol> indent to decrease from its default. I have tried playing with the padding and margin, but I need it to go back, not forward. What is the CSS to decide how many px/em the ol is indented? I'm sure this is simple, but I can't figure it out! Any help would be great. Thanks. Hey, I have two main columns of content. I want them both to be relative to the center. So the div on the left would be centerd minus 410 pixels and the right would be centerd plus 10 pixels. margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; Centers it, but there is no way to add or subtract pixels to that amount. Any ideas? Is there a way that this can be done, basically I have a div hidden based on certain JS logic, but the amount of space of the content in the div is still taken up on the screen. I would like to make the div say 0xp and discard content. Is there any code that can help me, I've looked but can't find. Thanks I'm working on something in PHP, which will be pulling articles from a database. I want to be able to place images on the page in the same exact spot for every article, and have the text wrap around the images regardless of where paragraphs begin and end. Is there anyway to do this with CSS? (I could do something where the person writing up the article enters a paragraph, and the image that goes with that paragraph, and do that multiple times, but I'm really hoping to just have a form where the person enters the article text in one block, and uploads the 3-4 images, and doesn't have to do anything more complicated than that, and then when the article is output on the page, it just plops the four images on the page where I say they should always be, and the text just wraps around that. Hope that makes sense.) I'm using float:left for my left nav bar, and then clear:both for my footer. Trouble is, I need to use some content boxes that will be using floats and then clears, however, when I use clear:both in my content box, it clears EVERYTHING (meaning it pushes below my navbar, because the navbar is quite long). Is there a workaround or am I using floats/clear wrong? TIA Javashackgirl Hello, The divs numbered #4(extra2) and #5(navigation2) cannot give way to other divs . How can I clear the other divs?

Hello, Consider the following design: <div id="container"> <div id="A" class="A"></div> <div id="B" class="B"></div> </div> And the CSS classes: .A {float:left; clear:left} .B {float:left; clear:right} This does not work well. So I always do as follow: <div id="container"> <div id="A" class="A"></div> <div id="B" class="B"></div> <div id="clear" class="clear"></div> </div> Whe .A {clear:both} This always happens when I have divs inside other divs. Does anyone knows how to solve this? Thanks, Miguel |
