CSS - 3 Columns - Floating Incorrectly
I'm somewhat new to CSS, so excuse me if this post sounds noobish.
The goal here is to make a simple 3 column layout with a header and a footer. For the most part, I've Googled around and I've got the basics of it down. But theres one problem - the far right column refuses to sit right below the header like it should. Its in its place horizontally - but vertically, it doesn't want to appear until the center column has ended. Heres the CSS I'm using - I hope you can infer what the IDs mean: Code: #header { background-color:#D7D7D7; color:#000000; padding:0; background-image:url(images/headerpng.png); background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:top center; height:96px; border:2px solid black; width:100%; } #header h1 { padding:0; margin:0; } #leftnav { float:left; width:100px; padding:5px; margin:0px; text-align:center; font-family:Arial; } #centercontent { margin-left:110px; margin-top:5px; margin-right:150px; } #footer { clear:both; text-align:center; font-size:9px; color:#666666; } #rightnav { float:right; width:100px; padding:5px; margin:0px; text-align:center; font-family:Arial; } By the way, I know there are a few unnecessary properties in there, but I haven't cleaned this code up yet - just looking for the solution to my nesting problem. Similar TutorialsOkay, so here's my code. I need to know how to make the div's go under each other, without neither being side by side, or oddly spaced. Oh, and only Chrome and Safari honor the top: 20%;. I tried putting in a link, but I'm a new user so can't put it in. D: I would like the div's to go below each other, but not sure how to do it. Also, if possible, does anyone know how I could set a determined height? I seem to have the width down. By the way, I'm sort of new to coding, so feel free to school me on how to code it better. Here's the code that I'm using, if you can see my error from the code alone. Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/xhtml; charset=windows-1252" /> <meta http-equiv="content-language" content="en-us" /> <title>Test</title> <style type="text/css" media="all"> .navbodyleft { color: #ffffff; background-color: black; font-family:arial; font-size: 20px; position: relative; top:0%; float: right; width: 10%; } .hai { color: #cc0000; background-color: yellow; font-family:arial; font-size: 20px; position: relative; top: 10%; float: right; width: 10%; } </style> </head><body> <div class="hai">hai</div> <div class="navbodyleft">hi</center></div> </body></html> So, in short, I would like to know: how to make the floating divs go under each other how to set a determined height for the floating divs how to make all browsers acknowledge my preset distance from top Thanks guys. My problem is, review section is completely jumbled. I'v attached screen shots of the correct layout taken from another website. Any suggestions would be appreciated. http://www.refinethetaste.com/html/default.asp?Section=product&PRODUCTID=14#fragment-3 Code: #product .raterprofile { float:left; width:200px;} #product .raterprofile .intprofile { font-size: 14px;color: #9e0b0e; font-weight:bold; letter-spacing: -1px;} #product .ratercontent { float:left; width:325px; border-left:1px dotted #ccc;} #product .ratercontent .intrating { font-size: 14px;color: #9e0b0e; font-weight:bold; letter-spacing: -1px;} ML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Hello, I'm working now on div layout that contains 3 sections (header, body, footer) in one centered wrapper with border (divs with background imgs). My problem is: - divs that are in fact borders (id="l_outerborder_b" and id="r_outerborder_b") don't stretch when main container (id="body_content_text") grows. Here is a html code: Code: <!--BEGIN TEMPLATE HEADER --> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <link href="template.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="template.js" /> </head> <body onload="onloadprocedures()"> <div id="main_container"> <div id="template_header"> <div id="tl_outerborder"></div> <div id="t_outerborder"></div> <div id="tr_outerborder"></div> <div id="l_outerborder_h"></div> <div id="header_content"> <div id="logo"><img src="img/logo.png" alt="" /></div> <div id="slogan"><img src="img/slogan.png" alt="Centrum zdrowia" /></div> </div> <div id="r_outerborder_h"></div> </div> <!-- END TEMPLATE HEADER --> <!-- BEGIN TEMPLATE BODY --> <div id="template_body"> <div id="l_outerborder_b"></div> <div id="body_content"> <div id="body_content_text"> <p>TEST</p> </div> </div> <div id="r_outerborder_b"></div> </div> <!-- END TEMPLATE BODY --> <!-- BEGIN TEMPLATE FOOTER --> <div id="template_footer"> <div style="clear:both"></div> <div id="l_outerborder_f"></div> <div id="footer_content"></div> <div id="l_outerborder_f"></div> <div id="bl_outerborder"></div> <div id="b_outerborder"></div> <div id="br_outerborder"></div> </div> </div> </body> </html> <!-- END TEMPLATE FOOTER --> and CSS: Code: @charset "utf-8"; /* CSS Document */ body { background-color:#FFFFFF; font-family:Tahoma, Verdana, "Times New Roman", Arial; font-size:12px; } a:link {text-decoration: none} /* unvisited link */ a:visited {text-decoration: none} /* visited link */ a:hover {text-decoration: none} /* mouse over link */ a:active {text-decoration: none} /* selected link */ #main_container { position:relative; margin:auto; width:960px; height:auto; } #template_header { float:left; position:relative; width:960px; height:300px; } #header_content { float:left; position:relative; width:900px; height:270px; } #logo { width:310px; height:130px; position:relative; float:left; top:0px; left:0px; } #slogan { width:580px; height:100px; position:relative; float:left; top:0px; left:0px; } #tl_outerborder { float:left; position:relative; background-image:url(img/tl_outerborder.png); width:30px; height:30px; } #t_outerborder { float:left; position:relative; background-image:url(img/t_outerborder.png); width:900px; height:30px; } #tr_outerborder { float:left; position:relative; background-image:url(img/tr_outerborder.png); width:30px; height:30px; } #l_outerborder_h { float:left; position:relative; background-image:url(img/l_outerborder.png); background-repeat:repeat-y; width:30px; height:270px; } #r_outerborder_h { float:right; position:relative; background-image:url(img/r_outerborder.png); background-repeat:repeat-y; width:30px; height:270px; } #body_content { float:left; position:relative; width:900px; overflow:hidden; } #body_content_text { float:left; position:relative; width:600px; margin: auto; overflow:hidden; } #l_outerborder_b { float:left; position:relative; background-image:url(img/l_outerborder.png); background-repeat:repeat-y; width:30px; height:inherit; } #r_outerborder_b { float:right; position:relative; background-image:url(img/r_outerborder.png); background-repeat:repeat-y; width:30px; height:inherit; } #l_outerborder_f { float:left; position:relative; background-image:url(img/l_outerborder.png); background-repeat:repeat-y; width:30px; height:inherit; } #r_outerborder_f { float:right; position:relative; background-image:url(img/r_outerborder.png); background-repeat:repeat-y; width:30px; height:inherit; } #template_body { float:left; position:relative; width:960px; overflow:hidden; } #bl_outerborder { float:left; position:relative; background-image:url(img/bl_outerborder.png); width:30px; height:30px; } #b_outerborder { float:left; position:relative; background-image:url(img/b_outerborder.png); width:900px; height:30px; } #br_outerborder { float:left; position:relative; background-image:url(img/br_outerborder.png); width:30px; height:30px; } Thanks in advance for info how to stretch those doomed divs EDIT: Here is layout concept. URL hTTp://qsrc.pl/layout.jpg Hi guys, Im hoping a CSS whizz can find an error in this code as I cannot for the life of me work out why content held in the 'main' div is appearing outside / overlapping the edge of the site design? It loads perfectly in Firefox Code: #wrap { width: 820px; background: #CCC url(content.jpg) repeat-y center top; margin: 0 auto; text-align: left; } #content-wrap { clear: both; width: 760px; padding: 0; margin: 10px auto; } /* Main Column */ #main { float: left; width: 70%; padding: 0; margin: 0 0 0 5px; display: inline; } Any help would be greatly appreciated Hello all, I dont understand why the image placed inside the right column appears incorrect here. Please check the attachment or the following website and you will understand what I am refering. http://www.refinethetaste.com/yk/clients.asp Code: #content { float:left; width: 956px; min-height:800px; background:url(images/bg_content.gif) 0px 0px #e2eceb no-repeat; } #content #lcolumn { float:left; width:401px; } #content #lcolumn .logo { float:left; width:100%; } #content #lcolumn img.logo { float:left; width:401px; height:104px; border:0px } #content #lcolumn .head { float:left; width:100%; height:20px; background:#99adcc; } #content #lcolumn .head .text { float:left; width:100%; text-align:center; font-size: 13px; font-weight:bold; line-height:20px; color:#083684; } #content #lcolumn .main { float:left; width:361px; padding:20px; } #content #lcolumn p { font-size:15px; } #content #rcolumn { float:left; width:555px; height:505px; } #content #rcolumn img { float:left; border:0px; } edit: FIXED! I am having some difficulty getting text to render how I want it. The page in question can be viewed he http://www.cbo4edu.org/who.html The column of text on the left is bolded for some reason and I want it match the text on the right (unbolded). I have setup an External style sheet and the only code I've applied to type is: PHP Code: .footer { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt; } body,td,th { color: #000000; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; } body { background-color: #000000; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; The HTML code: PHP Code: <th colspan="4" rowspan="24" align="left" valign="top"><p>College Bound Opportunities (CBO) is a not-for-profit organization centered in the five communities within Deerfield and Highland Park High School District 113.

Thanks to people much smarter than I, I've been able to stitch other's lessons into something almost workable. THE PROBLEM I have a horizontal menu with a submenu. This submenu should also display horizontally. It does in FF, but not in either IE6 or IE7. In these browsers, it displays vertically. I have tried a lot of things and finally gave up. I validated my code and was given a pass. I've tried narrowing down the problem and have tried searching for the answer but I just can't figure it out. If needed, you can view the problem at www.foundationfitnesscenter.com/schedule (ignore the crappy header image, it's just there to show an idea for now). The CSS where I feel the problem must be: Code: #nav #schedule-sub, #nav #education-sub, #nav #classes-sub { display:none; width:90%; } body.classes #nav ul#classes-sub a, body.schedule #nav ul#schedule-sub a, body.education #nav ul#education-sub a { background-image:none; color:#3300FF; font-size:100%; font-weight:bold; line-height:10px; margin-right:4px; padding:2px 10px 2px 10px; text-decoration:none; } body.classes #nav ul#classes-sub, body.schedule #nav ul#schedule-sub { display:block; position:absolute; left:15px; top:95px; } body.education #nav ul#education-sub { display:block; position:absolute; left:175px; top:95px; } The HTML Code: <ul id="nav"> <li class="home-list"><a href="/index.php">Home</a></li> <li class="classes-list"><a href="../classes/">Classes</a> <ul id="classes-sub"> <li><a href="../classes/pilates.php">Pilates</a></li> <li><a href="../classes/dance.php">Dance</a></li> <li><a href="../classes/gyrokinesis.php">Gyrokinesis</a></li> </ul> </li> <li class="schedule-list"><a href="../schedule/">Schedule</a> <ul id="schedule-sub"> <li><a href="../schedule/class-schedule">View All Classes</a></li> <li><a href="../schedule/enroll-private.php">Enroll - Private</a></li> <li><a href="../schedule/enroll-group.php">Enroll - Group</a></li> </ul> </li> <li class="education-list"><a href="../education/">Education</a> <ul id="education-sub"> <li><a href="../education/pilates/">Pilates</a></li> <li><a href="../education/dance/">Dance</a></li> <li><a href="../education/gyrokinesis/">Gyrokinesis</a></li> </ul> </li> <li class="about-list"><a href="../about/">About</a></li> <li class="contact-list"><a href="../contact/">Contact</a></li> </ul> Hi, I've just joined these forums as I have a very annoying problem. I have created a webpage which I have checked using the w3c validator - it is valid for XHTML 1.0 Transitional and Strict. It is a simple design; Header 3 Cols Footer It works perfectly in IE7, however in FireFox (2.0.0.14) I am getting some very strange behaviour. On the first, clean load (cache cleared) the page is rendered incorrectly - the Middle and Right columns being rendered below the Left Column. If you then click on the address bar and press enter (thus reloading the page from the cache) it is rendered perfectly. If I clear the cache, go to the address bar, and press enter again it renders incorrectly. Pressing F5 to refresh (ignoring the cache) also results in it being rendered incorrectly. Correct: URL Incorrect: URL I thought it might have been image dimensions not being set - so I went through and set all these to no avail.

Thanks in advance, Dave. I did a site recently and Im having trouble finding what is causing this weird error. If you go to this gallery using firefox: http://www.mmimageart.com/fineart4.html you will notice that the thumbnails under "saguaro" will display wrongly. IF you dont see the problem just keep refreshing the browser until you get the problem. you will get it. there are problems also in: http://www.mmimageart.com/fineart3.html (everglades) http://www.mmimageart.com/fineart.html (Atlantic Coast) What coding error in css can cause firefox to display the website wrong randomly ? Is this a well known error ? if not, then Ill post the code. Thanks in advanced!!! My page is displaying correctly in IE 6,7,8(CV), but when I view it in Firefox or Safari, it does not display correctly. The problem I'm having is the div #main is not stretching to allow room for the content in it. In IE it stretches fine, but in FF and Safari it doesn't stretch at all. I've been all over the internet searching but I can't find any similar problems/solutions. I've tried whatever I can think of or find. Can somebody please help me or point me in the right direction? Page: <div id="main"> //problem div <div id="sideBar"> <div id="header"> </div> </div> <div id="mainContent"> //contains content that I need to be stretched to the height </div> </div> CSS Code: html { margin: 0; padding: 0; border: 0; } body { background-image: url(img/bg.png); background-repeat: repeat-x; background-color: #008A32; margin: 0; padding: 10px; border: 0; height: 100%; min-height: 100%; } #main { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; padding: 20px; position: relative; border: solid 1px #0C0; width: 760px; margin: 1px auto; background-color: #FFF; } #sideBar { width: 194px; float: left; clear: left; height: auto; min-height: 100%; } #header { width: 194px; height: 344px; clear: both; float: none; background-image: url(img/Logo01.png); } #mainContent { width: 546px; float: right; clear: right; height: auto; min-height: 100%; } Thanks in advance -Mike Just when I think I've finally seen it all, every way these browsers can **** up, there's always one more. This morning I discovered that Netscape 7 / Win does not properly render an a element with image content. My example demonstrates that both IE 6 / Win and Netscape 7 / Win both have issues rendering a elements with text content also. This seems like really basic stuff . . . how, HOW could Netscape 7 not be able to render the a with image content correctly??? (Another good question is why this forum doesn't allow you to upload HTML files . . . WTF?? -- you'll have to rename the file to .html) This problem has been driving me crazy. Long story short, this is what it looks like in Firefox 3. This is the correct way it should look. (ff.jpg) This is the way it looks in both IEs (ie.jpg) The entire third <li> item wraps correctly in firefox, but in ie, the word within the <li> wrap, but not the entire <li> element. Here is the html: Code: <ul class="tabNavSecondary"> <li><a href="#preventionSub1">Prevention</a>|</li> <li><a href="#preventionSub2">xxxxxx</a>|</li> <li><a href="#preventionSub3">xxxxx</a>|</li> <li><a href="#preventionSub4">xxxx</a>|</li> <li><a href="#preventionSub5">xxxx</a>|</li> <li><a href="#preventionSub6">xxx</a></li> </ul> CSS: Code: .tabNavSecondary{ float:left; margin:6px 0 15px -5px; } .tabNavSecondary li{ background:none; display:block; float:left; margin:0; padding:0; } .tabNavSecondary li a, .tabNavSecondary li a:link{ float:left; margin:0 5px; color:#003399; } Any thoughts? I've tried for about an hour with all sorts of different styles. hi, i am a total newbie with css and trying to create a floating divider. an example can be seen at www.payjunction.com. does anyone know a tutorial on how to create one? thanks for the help in advance Hi, Can someone help me with why the following header bar doesn't work in Firefox? It just shows the very top of the bar with the two other divs inside of it. Code: <div class="cmsHeader"> <div style="float: left;">Page Name</div> <div style="float: right;"><a href="" title='Add Page'><img src='images/icons/file_(add)_16x16.gif' border='0' alt='Add Page'></a></div> </div> .cmsHeader{ background: #809096; padding: 5px; width: 98%; color: #FFFFFF; } .cmsHeader a{ color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: none; } .cmsHeader a:hover{ text-decoration: underline; } Learning CSS and trying to emulate the following table: Code: |--------------------------------------| | Text 1 |----------------| | | Text 2 | Inner box text| | | Text 3 |----------------| | |--------------------------------------| I can get a nested div to work vertically but not horizontally. I'm trying: Code: div#container { float: left } div#title { float: right } <div id="container"> hello<br>hello <div id="title"> Text 1<br /> Text 2 </div> </div> Which is producing: Code: |--------------------------------------| | Hello | | Hello | | |----------------| | | | Text 1 | | | | Text 2 | | | |----------------| | |--------------------------------------| Perhaps a positioning thing which I don't understand yet? It's not homework so you don't have to do it for me, but rather you could just point to knowledge sources.... Tx! I have 3 tables in a div. I have two of the tables one on top of the other. I wanted to place the third table to the left of the bottom table. So I placed the second table relative and left -50px. I placed the third with position absolute, top -70px and float right to achieve this layout. Is there a better way of doing this out of curiousity? I currently have the following layout Code: <table> <tr> <td></td> <td></td> </tr> </table> how do i go about making the same layout but using CSS. Each <td> is 50% wide Hi Everyone, I've been doing modest CSS for a while now and feel like I have a good grasp of it, and generally find a way of doing what I want. But, this has always bugged me and I need to understand what is going on... I think it's a question of Floating. This is in reference to http://www.arabellamusic.co.uk I want the blog posts to be on the left, and some other content on the right. How is the best way to go about doing this? You can check my source, but this was my thinking: Code: HTML <div class='inner'> <div class='left'> BLOG PHP HERE </div> <div class='right'> SOME OTHER STUFF HERE </div> </div> And the CSS: .inner { width:788px; } .left { float:left; width:50%; } .right { float:left; width:50%; } If you grab my stylesheet and my source, you will see that I have a couple more things in there, but I don't think they could be affecting the rest (text-align etc...) So, am I doing this wrong? I have floated columns in other websites this way and it sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. Incidentally, once it would only work when I set 49% to each, I was assuming this was something to do with the box model I read about, but wasn't too sure. I will try not to play around with the site too much until I get a reply or two, but a few things may jump around as I try stuff! Thanks in advance... James |
