CSS - Ie Fix Needed, Unwanted Spaces In A List.
The page below renders as I want in Firefox but IE inserts extra spaces I don't want in the 1st list. I've worked out I can get rid of this by removing all whitespace from the html, but this makes for some hard to maintain code. Is there something I can do in css that will make IE handle the list the way I want it to?

I'm having a problem with spacing tho. No matter what I do, there always seems to be a slight space between the LI elements. Code is as follows: PHP Code: #menu { margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; } <ul id="menu"> <li><a href="thestore.php"><img src="images/menu_thestore.gif" width="195" height="36" border="0" alt="The Store" onmouseover="this.src='images/menu_thestore_over.gif'" onmouseout="this.src='images/menu_thestore.gif'" /></a></li> <li><a href="steel_toe_cards.php"><img src="images/menu_steeltoe.gif" width="195" height="36" border="0" alt="Steel Toe Cards" onmouseover="this.src='images/menu_steeltoe_over.gif'" onmouseout="this.src='images/menu_steeltoe.gif'" /></a></li> <li><a href="locations.php"><img src="images/menu_locations.gif" width="195" height="36" border="0" alt="Locations" onmouseover="this.src='images/menu_locations_over.gif'" onmouseout="this.src='images/menu_locations.gif'"/></a> </ul> Would it be something to do with the fact I'm using images as menu options?? There's always a slight space between them, and I can't figure out why! I've got the standard <ul><li> horizontal menu, but each menu item has a space between it. I've tried wrapping the entire menu in a div with a background color, but so far I've had no luck. Can I change the CSS to not have padding between? also, why does a styled <hr> not appear in Firefox? Thanks for the help! Here is what I have in the code. css Code: #navcontainer ul { margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style-type: none; } #navcontainer ul li { display: inline; } #navcontainer ul li a { text-decoration: none; padding: .2em 1em; color: #FFFFFF; background-color: #C0C0C0; } #navcontainer ul li a:hover { color: #C0C0C0; background-color: #FFFFFF; } html Code: <div id="navcontainer"> <hr /> <ul> <li> <a href="index.html">Home</a> </li> <li> <a href="index.html">Products and Services</a> </li> <li> <a href="index.html">Employment</a> </li> <li> <a href="index.html">Blah</a> </li> <li> <a href="index.html">Home</a> </li> </ul> </div> hello all, I have been working on a web site that is constructed 99% using divs and CSS.

None of the solutions are working for me. PLease help! I have a footer divided into 3 columns. The text inside each column is left-aligned with no padding/margin except for my twitter feed, which shows up with a ~41px indent. I've tried every combination of padding & negative margin in the CSS, nothing works. Currently: #twitter_update_list li {padding-left:-41px; text-indent:0px; margin-left:-41px; overflow:hidden; display:inline; text-align:left; list-style-position: inside} #twitter_update_list ul li {padding-left:-41px; text-indent:0px; margin-left:-41px; overflow:hidden; display:inline; text-align:left; list-style-position: inside} #twitter_div {padding:-41px 0 0 0; text-indent:0px; margin-left:0 0 0 0; overflow:hidden; display:inline; text-align:left;} My website is marinaporter.blogspot.com Thanks so much... Hi, everyone. Funny I've never run into this before, but I've got a div with a background colour applied, and within it there's an image I want to appear snug to the top, right where the bgcolour starts. Here's the html/css: Code: <TD style='vertical-align:top; text-align:left;'> <div style='background-color:#DA1B28; padding:0px; vertical-align:top; color:white; height:19px; width:385px; margin-left:20px; margin-top:8px;'> <a href='blah.html' style='margin-top:0px;'><img src='images/viewcart.gif' border='0' alt='View Cart!' style='margin-left: 4px; margin-top:0px;'></a> </div> </TD> </TD> I'm getting a bout 2px of space before the image starts; is the only way around this to use a negative margin-top, or am I missing some parameter in one of the styles? Thanks in advance! Hi everyone. I have a header image and directly below it the div that holds my navigation. In FF it works great, but in IE I get about a 5px space inbetween the header image and the navigation div. The navigation div is colored so it's really easy to tell where it stops and starts in IE. Here's my CSS code: Code: body { background-image: url(images/bgshadow.gif); background-repeat: repeat-y; background-position: 50% 0; text-align: center; margin: 0 0; padding: 0 0; } #content { width: 738px; margin-top: 0; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 0; margin-left: auto; padding: 0 0; vertical-align: top; } #header { width: 738px; margin: 0 0; padding: 0 0; } #nav { width: 738px; height: 25px; margin: 0 0; padding: 0 0; background-color: #86462F; vertical-align: top; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; font-size: 12px; color: #fff; } #nav ul { width: auto; float: right; margin: 5px 0 0 0; padding: 0 0; } #nav ul li { margin: 0 25px 0 0; padding: 0 0; list-style-type: none; display: inline; } and my markup: Code: <div id="content"> <div id="header"> <img src="images/header.jpg" width="738" height="100" /></div> <div id="nav"> <ul> <li>Home</li> <li>Register</li> <li>Go Play!</li> </ul> </div> I've tested the white-space bug in windows IE (taking out all of the white-space in the markup) but that only had a marginal effect on the list. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks, -Brian Hello, im working on styling an unordered list into a file tree. So far, so good. However, do you see that space that is showing in between each <li>, between the T (elbow2.gif) image, its very unwanted. Code: /* -- FILE BROWSER -- */ #browseFiles { padding: 0 0 0 20px;/* 000pix handles indent */ } #browseFiles ul { font: 10px sans-serif; color: #000; list-style:none; margin: 0; padding: 0; } #browseFiles li { /*display:compact; height: 18px;*/ padding: 0; margin: 0; } #browseFiles .fileDiv { height: 18px; background: url(images/elbow2.gif) no-repeat scroll 0 0; } #browseFiles .fileLink { padding: 0 0 0 13px; margin: 3px 0 0 0; } #browseFiles .dir { list-style:none; font: bold 10px sans-serif; margin:0; padding:0; } #browseFiles .file { padding: 0 0 0 3px; margin:0; } Heres the html Code: <div id='browseFiles'> <ul> <li class='file'> <div class='fileDiv'> <a class='fileLink'> <img class'fileIcon' src='images/file.gif' /> </a> </div> </li> <li class='file'> <div class='fileDiv'> <a class='fileLink'> <img class'fileIcon' src='images/file.gif' /> </a> </div> </li> <li class='file'> <div class='fileDiv'> <a class='fileLink'> <img class'fileIcon' src='images/file.gif' /> </a> </div> </li> </ul> </div> Thank you for the help in advanced. I have some body text on a site I am working on. On Firefox and Safari the text appears with an underline even though it isn't set in the CSS to have this line. Strangely it doesn't happen in Internet Explorer 6. Also, it only happens on one page of the site in Firefox and Safari. Hi there, I'm building a page that requires 100% width & height, and absolutely NO margins on any side. I've applied the following inside my CSS: body { margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; background-color: 000000; } For this to work in Firefox, I've also had to add the same code just above the head tag (inconvenient, but I don't mind). My problem is the unwanted right margin that appears in IE. I have no idea how to remedy this. You may view the page here. Thanks so much! Please look at http://certified.tmhdesign.com/know.asp in FF I have a div element with an id of "know" that is appearing under an h1 element with an id of know_header In Firefox there is an unwanted top margin on the div#know (or a bottom margin on the H1 element). I can't seem to understand why? T I'm just playing around with some HTML and CSS for my student home page. I'm trying to use divs only, without the aid of any tables. All seems to be going well, except for my content area. I cannot post a link, becuase I'm a new user, but here is the page I'm working on: http://students.uww.edu/beghindb27/. The page is CSS and HTML validated properly, but only views properly in IE 6, not Firefox. In Firefox there appears to be a 10px padding below the content_top and above the content_bot divs. This should not be there, and does not appear in IE. In the past I've been able to remove this by using "!important" in my CSS to have Firefox ignore the accepted padding, but I'm looking for a better way to fix this, or the actual reason these paddings are showing up.

It only happens in IE, not modern browsers like Firefox or Safari. What's causing it and how can I fix it? I've tried playing around with "clear:none" and "float:right" properties for the right column, but it just makes the problem worse. It seems the form that creates unwanted space in IE. Site in question: http://www.phaseninedesign.com/p/uber/ HTML: Code: <div id="topMenu"> <form action="#" method="post"> <div id="reviewsBut"><a href="#"><img src="images/reviewsBut.gif" alt="Reviews" /></a></div> <div id="articlesBut"><a href="#"><img src="images/articlesBut.gif" alt="Articles" /></a></div> <div id="aboutBut"><a href="#"><img src="images/aboutBut.gif" alt="About" /></a></div> <div id="contactBut"><a href="#"><img src="images/contactBut.gif" alt="Contact" /></a></div> <div id="sponsorsBut"><a href="#"><img src="images/sponsorsBut.gif" alt="Sponsors" /></a></div> <div id="loginButTop"><a href="#"><img src="images/loginButTop.gif" alt="Sponsors" /></a></div> <div id="passwordBoxTop"><input type="password" id="password" onFocus="if(this.value=='password')value=''" onBlur="if(this.value=='')value='password';" value="password" /></div> <div id="userTopBox"><input type="text" id="user" onFocus="if(this.value=='Username')value=''" onBlur="if(this.value=='')value='Username';" value="Username" /></div> </form> </div> ----------------------- CSS: Code: #topMenu{ width: 1005px; height: 23px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; background-color: #282a1d; background-image: url(images/topMenuBG.gif); border-right: 1px solid black; border-left: 1px solid black; } I've tried moving the form outside of the dive that its in, but that makes the space even bigger. I'm a CSS novice, struggling to understand the nuances of some open source CSS I'm using for a site. The main horizontal navigation has an extra item at the end of the row and I can't figure out why. Can you help me get rid of it? Here is my include for the navigation: <ul> <li><a href="/index.shtml">Home</a></li> <li><a href="/about.shtml">About</a></li> <li><a href="/ultreyas.shtml">Ultreyas</a></li> <li><a href="/weekends.shtml">Weekends</a></li> <li><a href="/FAQs.shtml">FAQs</a></li> <li><a href="/servant_community.shtml">Servant Community</a></li> <li><a href="/resources.shtml">Resources</a></li> <li><a href="/stay_in_touch.shtml">Stay in Touch</a></li> <li><a href="/donate.shtml">Donate</a></li> </ul> Here is the CSS: /*----------------------------*/ /* 2.4 - Navigation - Level 2 */ /*----------------------------*/ .nav2 {clear: both; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: verdana, arial, sans serif; font-size: 1.0em;} .nav2 ul {float: left; width: 770px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border-top: solid 1px rgb(54,83,151); border-bottom: solid 1px rgb(54,83,151); background-color: rgb(64,134,204); font-weight: bold;} .nav2 li {display: inline; list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;} .nav2 li a {display: block; float: left; margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px; padding: 5px 10px 5px 10px; border-right: solid 1px rgb(54,83,151); color: rgb(255,255,255); text-transform: uppercase; text-decoration: none; font-size: 100%;} .nav2 a:hover, .nav2 a.selected {color: rgb(50,50,50); text-decoration: none;} .buffer {clear: both; width: 770px; height: 30px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; background-color: rgb(255,255,255);} I'd like "Donate" to be the last item, but there is another empty box appearing to the right of it. Much obliged, Laurie Hello. I've been playing with css for about a week now and after tearing my hair out and calling it a stupid language a number of times, have eventually solved all my problems. However todays problem I thought I'd ask about. There are 3 or 4 white pixels at the corners of my css image changing navigation buttons that I didn't put there. They don't show up when viewed in photoshop or when I use Javascript rollovers. I can't find any help anywhere else either. |
