CSS - Gap Appearing In Ie Over Floated Div
As always IE woes...
Anyway I have a design that I'm currently reworking into a css/div positioned site. I'm almost done with it, but the problem I'm having is that I have 2 floated divs below a horizontal navigation bar. In IE these two floated divs are not positioning themselves directly beneath the nav bar like they do in FF. There looks to be a 3px or so gap between them. I will post screenshots for a better idea of what I'm talking about. The HTML is: Code: <div id="container"> <div id="top"></div> <div id="brands"> ....stuff here.... </div> <div id="slides"></div> <!-- Slides and Vert_nav are not appearing directly below brands in IE--> <div id="vert_nav"> ....stuff here.... </div> </div> CSS Code: /* CSS Document */ html, body { background: #000000; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; color: #FFFFFF; } #container { width: 760px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; } #top { width: 760px; height: 239px; background: url(../images/top.jpg) top left no-repeat; } #brands { width: 760px; height: 31px; } #slides { width: 667px; height: 350px; float: left; background: url(../images/slides.jpg) top left no-repeat; T} #vert_nav { width: 93px; height: 350px; float: right; } should.jpg is how the page is supposed to look. shouldnt.jpg is how it is appearing in IE. Similar TutorialsHello all, I'm having a bit of trouble with a list of relative, floated <li> elements, each containing a single absolutely positioned div that appears on hover. I'm using the :hover pseudo-class currently but I will use JavaScript for IE6 once it displays correctly. The code is below. The problem is that the <div> appears on top of it's parent element but behind all other elements. Code: #wrapper-body ul.staff-list{ list-style-type:none; padding-top:10px; position:relative; } #wrapper-body ul.staff-list-team{ width:313px; padding-top:0; padding-bottom:15px; margin-bottom:20px; border-bottom:1px solid #d7e3a9; } #wrapper-body ul.staff-list li{ float:left; width:230px; position:relative; padding:8px 0 8px 15px; z-index:1; } #wrapper-body ul.staff-list-team li{ width:151px; padding-left:0; padding-left:5px; } #wrapper-body ul.staff-list-team li.right{ padding-left:5px; } #wrapper-body ul.staff-list-clerks li{ float:none; width:310px; padding-left:5px; } #wrapper-body ul li.highlight{ background-color:#f4f6ec; } #wrapper-body ul.staff-list li p{ padding:0 0 9px 0; margin-left:91px; } #wrapper-body ul.staff-list li small{ padding:0 0 5px 0; margin-left:91px; } #wrapper-body ul.staff-list-clerks li span{ color:#A6302B; display:block; float:left; } #wrapper-body ul.staff-list-clerks li span.clerk-name{ width:140px; } #wrapper-body ul.staff-list-clerks li span.clerk-phone{ width:120px; background:url(../img/structure/clerks-phone.gif) 0 2px no-repeat; padding-left:23px; } #wrapper-body ul.staff-list-clerks li a.clerk-email{ display:block; float:left; height:16px; width:16px; background:url(../img/structure/clerks-mail.gif) 0 3px no-repeat; } #wrapper-body ul.staff-list li div.staff-list-detail{ display:none; background:url(../img/structure/staff-list-bottom.gif) left bottom repeat-x; padding-bottom:3px; margin-top:-15px; left:4px; z-index:10; top:15px; position:absolute; } #wrapper-body ul.staff-list li div.staff-list-detail a{ background:url(../img/structure/staff-list-bullet.gif) no-repeat 0 4px; padding-left:8px; } #wrapper-body ul.staff-list li:hover div.staff-list-detail{ display:block; } An image of what is happening below: Thanks for reading! In Firefox, I've got a right div that is not repsonding to an auto width in FF. I am not a pro a CSS (yet ) and I hope that someone can give me the one line solution that I am missing. I've included a screen shot of the problem, any help is greatly appreciated. - K CSS Code Code: #MainContainer { float: left; width: auto; } #Main { margin-right: 0.2em; } #MainContent { padding: 0.5em 0.5em 0.5em 0.5em; } #SidebarContainer { float: right; width: 250px; border-top: 1px solid #C0C0C0; padding-top: 5px; clear: right; } #Sidebar { padding-bottom: 5px; background: #ADADAD; background-image: url(../images/SidebarBackground.jpg); background-repeat: no-repeat; clear:left; } #SidebarContent { margin: 0.2em 0.2em 0.2em 0.2em; } Hi, I'm having a familiar problem: with this page The the content on a contained and floated div is over running it's containing div. I have had this problem before and using something like: Code: #innerwrap:after { content:"."; display:block; clear:both; height: 0; clear: both; visibility: hidden; } Has worked before, but this time it's not. I'm having to specify a unique class and heitht for the #main box or use <br/>. It would be nice not to have to do this. Can anybody advise me what to look into please. Thanks James Hello, I have a page where a left-floated <div> is nested within the main <div>. Content then is placed in a <div> next to the left-floated one. My problem is that the main <div> does not stretch to the height of the left-floated <div>, rather just to the height of the content. I placed: Code: <br style="clear: both;"> after the content <div> which usually does the trick but it's not working for some reason... And even more confusing is the fact that if I change the <br> to something else like say <span>, the main <div> does stretch to the proper height BUT the content within the <h1> tag and the content <div> are not displayed until you do something like minimize the window then restore it or bring another window in front of it then bring it back to focus. This happens in IE only. Any ideas?

This was hard for me because I am very new to CSS. My code validated and the page looks fine in IE but in Firefox the third or right column does not clear the middle column. I tried to google the problem but the explanations are way over my head. Also the only way I could get the blue border to not show up in firefox was to add the style directly to the image code.

There are a couple tables in my design that I put in just to show the boss something pretty! They will be gone soon. I have 3 places on the page where I'm using images as links to effect behavior with javascript or forms. My menu's going down the left side of this template has +/- "buttons" to toggle nested lists on and off. By using margin-top:-14px they are lining up slightly higher then needed in FF, slightly lower then needed in IE and way to high in Safari. If i set the margin-top to 0, then I get it lined up nicely in safari and IE and FF are off.

Template Thanks for having a look Hi Folks [I don't think my last attempt went through - I made a mistake], I have a page here with a problem that's occupied me for over a day. I can't get my non-floated 'DIV#left' to sit beside my floated 'DIV#right'. The DIV#left containing the subnav slips, or is forced down the page; http://johniwhite.com/tests/ireland/level_2.html I'd love to hear the easy answer! Here's the CSS: div#left_level2 { width: 130px; height: 50px; vertical-align: top; padding: 0; margin: 0px; /* display: inline;*/ /* border: 1px solid #0F0;*/ } div#right_level2 { float: right; width: 594px; height: 50px; padding: 0 0 0 0; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; vertical-align: top; } ---- The code for a more simple version at http://johniwhite.com/tests/ireland/2_col_test.htm <div id="middle"> <div id="right_level2"><!--the floated div for content--></div> <div id="left_level2"><!--the non-floated div for subnav--></div> </div> ---------- Love to hear thoughts, thanks John In IE6, the right sidebar column drops down below the content or disappears and creates space below the content before the footer. On some of my other pages it happens and on others, it does not. Can anyone suggest the problem and/or solution? Best, Colin http://029c92a.netsolhost.com/abrasives/cuttingdiscs.html sure i read an article on this somewhere but cant remember where, the problem is this Code: <div class="floated and cleared right"> stuff </div> <div class="fixed width" > <img class="floated left"> lots of text <div> related to my previous layout post. the problem is that the img (infact any floated element, cleared or not) falls below the right floated div! (red box in attatched gif) if i float and clear the first div left then the img is in the correct place within it but the div itseld drops below the right floated div help! Hey, Why does this look different in IE and in Firefox? Code: <html><body> <div style="float:left;border:3px solid green;">Left div</div> <div style="width:200px;border:8px solid black;">Right div</div> </bodY></html> In FF, the right div's border starts at the same place as the left div's border. In IE, the right div's border starts to the right of the left div. Thanks in advance... Hi Please let me know if I am posting what is required for answering my questions as I would like to make things as easy as possible for you. Here is my first problem:- I have been trying to move our sitesdesign across to being css based and in the large part have succeeded but I have run into difficulties when it comes to displaying our results. I am trying to wrap 9 search results on a page using float but the results I am getting are different between mac IE 5.1, opera 5 Mac (not that bothered though) and Windows IE 6.0. My problem is that on windows the float works as it should and wraps so that I have a grid of 9 images, on a mac the images wrap but jump to the bottom of my left floated navigation and then continue the grid and on opera they just don't wrap. The URL is URL CSS file URL Can anybody shed any light on why this might happen as I am a little lost. TIA hanonman I am new to css, and am eager to build the equivalent of a work-week calendar using only css. Basically, a five item table without using table tags. I have succeeded with firefox, but for some reason I am getting an odd reordering of the div elements in IE. I will post the html and the css below, and could really use some pointers. I am sure it has something to do with the float commands, but am not even sure what to call this problem to search for it! Here's the html page <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="killmer.css"> <title>Killmer's Science Page - Chemistry Assignments</title> </head> <body > <div class="left"> <h1><a href="chemcalendar.html" class="one">Chemistry Calendar</a></h1> </div> <div class="left"> <h1>Chemistry Textbook Online</h1> </div> <div class="left"> <h1>Chemistry Today Calendar</h1> </div> <div class="left"> <h1>Chemistry Today Textbook Online</h1> </div> <div class="right"> <img src="./images/logo.jpg" ></img> </div> <div class="right"> <h2>Chemistry Daily Assignments</h2>. </div> <div class="right"> <div class="monday"> <h1>MONDAY</h1> </div> <div class="tuesday"> <h1>TUESDAY</h1> </div> <div class="wednesday"> <h1>WEDNESDAY</h1> </div> <div class="thursday"> <h1>THURSDAY</h1> </div> <div class="friday"> <h1>FRIDAY</h1> </div> <div class="monday"> <h1>MONDAY</h1> </div> <div class="tuesday"> <h1>TUESDAY</h1> </div> <div class="wednesday"> <h1>WEDNESDAY</h1> </div> <div class="thursday"> <h1>THURSDAY</h1> </div> <div class="friday"> <h1>FRIDAY</h1> </div> </div> </body> </html> And here's the css a.one:link {color:black; text-decoration: none;} a.one:visited {color:black; text-decoration: none;} a.one:hover {color:red; text-decoration: none;} a.one:active {color:black; text-decoration: none;} body { background: url(./images/backgroundblend.jpg); background-repeat: repeat-y; background-color:black; } h1 { color:black; font-family:"times new roman",serif; font-size:100%; } h2 { color:silver; font-family:"times new roman",serif; } div.left { border:black; padding:3px; border-style:outset; border-width:2px; background-color:silver; width:150px; font-family:courier, monospace; float:left; clear:left; margin:5px; } div.right { margin-left:250px; margin-top:0px; margin-right:0px; margin-botton:0px; padding:0px; } div.monday { border:black; padding:3px; border-style:outset; border-width:2px; background-color:silver; width:15%; font-family:courier, monospace; margin:1px; float:left; clear:left; } div.tuesday { border:black; padding:3px; border-style:outset; border-width:2px; background-color:silver; width:15%; font-family:courier, monospace; margin:1px 1px 1px 1px; float:left;} div.wednesday { border:black; padding:3px; border-style:outset; border-width:2px; background-color:silver; width:15%; font-family:courier, monospace; margin:1px 1px 1px 1px; float:left; } div.thursday { border:black; padding:3px; border-style:outset; border-width:2px; background-color:silver; width:15%; font-family:courier, monospace; margin:1px 1px 1px 1px; float:left; } div.friday { border:black; padding:3px; border-style:outset; border-width:2px; background-color:silver; width:15%; font-family:courier, monospace; margin:1px 1px 1px 1px; float:left; } Thanks for the time! I have some tabular data that I would like displayed in two columns within a div. The div has some basic styling on it to create a block around the tables. The tables should appear side by side at the top of the div, so I floated the tables. I then found that the width of the div was always 100% unless I floated the div as well. This made the div wrap around the tables nicely, but caused the next element to appear to the right of the div, not on the next line as it normally would. Here is the basic code I have so far: Code: <html> <head> <style type="text/css"> div.box1 { border: 1px solid red; background: #afafaf; padding: 2px; float: left; } div.box1 table { float: left; border: 1px solid blue; margin-right: 15px; } </style> </head> <body> <h1>Div</h1> <div class="box1"> <table> <tr> <td>Field1:</td> <td>Value</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Field1:</td> <td>Value</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Field1:</td> <td>Value</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Field1:</td> <td>Value</td> </tr> </table> <table> <tr> <td>Field2:</td> <td>Value</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Field2:</td> <td>Value</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Field2:</td> <td>Value</td> </tr> </table> </div> </div> <h1>Next Text</h1> </body> </html> I would like for the "Next Text" to appear on a new line after the div. After reading this page, I added the following to my css: Code: div.box1:after { content: 'clear me'; clear: both; display: block; height: 0px; visibility: hidden; } However, this had no effect on the results in Firefox or Safari. The only way I have found to clear the div is to add style="clear: both" to the h1 tag following the div. I would prefer to not do this because it will be problematic for our graphics guys down the road. Any advice on how to clear the div and keep it wrapping around the tables? Hi, I've got a little problem. I have two floated DIVs (left and right) inside a non-floated DIV. Below that, I have another non-floated DIV. In Internet Explorer, the bottom DIV appears where the floating DIVs end. In Firefox, however, the bottom DIV god underneath the floated DIVs and sticks to the top. here's the related CSS: css Code: Original - css Code #content { padding: 34px 26px 0 26px; text-align: left; } #content #leftcol, #content #rightcol { height: 30px; padding: 0px; display: block; margin: 0px; } #content #leftcol { width: 532px; float: left; } #content #rightcol { width: 230px; float: right; } #footer { height: 95px; background-image: url(images/footerstrip.gif); background-repeat: repeat-x; width: 100%; text-align: center; margin: auto; float:left; }
The floated DIVs need to be height-flexible, so floating the bottom DIV relatively would not work. The bottom div needs to start at the bottom of the floating DIVs. I hope somebody can lend a hand - thanks in advance, all. I've never run into this before, but I have the following document structure and the right div's top margin is about 10px below the left in FF and Opera.(aligns fine in IE-AMAZING, but true) Every other time I have simply set the margin and padding both to 0px of my floated divs and it has brought it to the same height as my left div: NOTE: I apologize, I don't have a link, this is being developed off line right now. CSS code: Code: /* You guessed it, my container div */ div.container { clear: both; /* clears two divs above it */ text-align: right; width: 100%; } /* Left div */ div.left { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; width: 49%; } /* Right div */ div.right { float: right; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; width: 49%; } xhtml markup: Code: <div class="container"> <fieldset class="info"> <legend>Get Information For Your Next Trip Here!</legend> <p> Before you venture out on your next road trip, get your directions here. </p> <form action="myform.php" method="get"> <div class="right"> <ul class="none"> <li><img src="images/end.png" class="mapimg" alt="Enter Where Your Trip Will End" title="Enter Where Your Trip Will End" /> <label for="address2">Address/Intersection:</label> <br /> <input type="text" class="fbgcolor" id="address2" name="2a" size="35" maxlength="80" /></li> <li><label for="city2">City:</label> <br /> <input type="text" class="fbgcolor" id="city2" name="2c" size="35" maxlength="50" /></li> <li><label for="state2">State:</label> <label for="zip">Zip:</label> <br /> <input type="text" class="fbgcolor" id="state2" name="2s" size="2" maxlength="2" /> <input type="text" class="fbgcolor" id="zip2" name="2z" size="10" maxlength="10" /></li> <li><input type="submit" value="Get Directions" /></li> </ul> </div> <div class="left"> <ul class="none"> <li><img src="images/start.png" class="mapimg" alt="Enter Where Your Trip Will Begin" title="Enter Where Your Trip Will Begin" /> <label for="address">Address/Intersection:</label> <br /> <input type="text" class="fbgcolor" id="address" name="1a" size="35" maxlength="80" /></li> <li><label for="city">City:</label> <br /> <input type="text" class="fbgcolor" id="city" name="1c" size="35" maxlength="50" /></li> <li><label for="state">State:</label> <label for="zip">Zip:</label> <br /> <input type="text" class="fbgcolor" id="state" name="1s" size="2" maxlength="2" /> <input type="text" class="fbgcolor" id="zip" name="1z" size="10" maxlength="10" /></li> </ul> </div> </form> </fieldset> <!-- End Container Div --> </div> Both my code and css validate just fine. Any ideas or good links? I am creating a top nav with links that are turned into floated blocks. I have 2 issues that I can't seem to figure out. 1. How do I keep the elements from wrapping? 2. How do I make the set of floated items centered? Here is what I have so far (see code below). Because the items are floated to the left, they stay anchored to left and aren't centered. I tried giving the nav div a width. That did allow it to be centered, but I don't know what the exact width of the combined link blocks would be, so if it is too short, it wraps, and if it is too wide it doesn't center evenly. Code: #nav{ text-align:center; padding-top:24px; } #nav a{ display:block; float:left; padding:13px; text-transform:uppercase; color:#9BA047; background:#FFF; line-height:1em; text-decoration:none; font-weight:bold; } #nav a:hover{ color:#85231C; } #nav a#logo{ float:left; padding:0px; } <div align="center"> <div id="nav"> <a href="/" id="logo"><img src="images/logo.gif" alt="Associated Group" border="0" /></a><a href="/about-us.html">About Us</a><a href="/exterior.html">Exterior</a><a href="/interior.html">Interior</a><a href="/display.html">Display</a><a href="/employment.html">Employment</a><a href="/location.html">Location</a><a href="/contact.html">Contact</a> <div class="clear"></div> </div> </div> No worries, made an obvious error. Please delete this =) ( sorry for waste of moderators time ) All but the last image disappear in IE6 (works in FF and Safari). I searched the web for a bug fix but have not found anything that works. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
