CSS - Fading Border
Hi,
I have come across this website http://www.grovewebsitedesign.co.uk/ and I am wondering how they did the fading border effect. As you can see the website is made from a white box in the middle of the screen that has a border that fades in the gray background. Is this possible in CSS? Or I should use JavaScript for such a thing? Regards, Sim085 Similar TutorialsHi All, I'm currently working on a project for my A-Level ICT coursework. We've been asked to create a website aimed at teenagers about European food. Anyways, we need to include elements of CSS, however because I already have a pretty basic knowledge of HTML and CSS I am going to try and use this project to expand my knowledge. I've already added in a floating footer that runs along the bottom of the page and moves with the browser, however what I want to do, is have the bottom 10px or so of the DIV fading out to transparent.. like a gradient. I'm assuming I'll need to add a DIV at the bottom of each DIV that I want to fade out (like a gradient) with an image in however I can't get the effect that I want. The only example i can see on the web is one where the bottom of the page has a white>transparent gradient on the bottom, I can't provide an actual link as I have a new account, however it used a DIV with a high z-index to hover an image over the bottom of the page, the DIVs width was set to 100%) However, this spans for the whole page, and I just want it to be on two seperate divs. I have one container DIV, a Header DIV, a Navigation DIV, and then below these two are a 'Right Content DIV' and a 'Left Content DIV'. I also have a footer DIV however this floats at the bottom of the browser. All of the DIVS are nested within the container DIV. Can anyone link me to a tutorial or offer a little advice? Is it possible to fade text using the DOM or CSS? My client can not let go of the idea of critical copy fading into the page. I do not want to use SEO unfriendly flash or .gif to do this. Is this possible? Thanks S How does wordpress manage the fading effects?, It goes from a color to another in the RGB space. I was wondering if this was CSS related, but didn't find much in the css files. Anyone care to explain me how to achieve this, please. Thanks. Hi. Have created some simple tabs using table cells. Active tab should have bottom-border color equal to page background-color. Non-active tabs should have bottom-border=black. Works fine in IE, but does not work very well in Firefox. If I remove the border-collapse:collapse on the table, then firefox also work... but I would like to be able to keep the 1px border between each table cell. So is there a way to make this work in both IE and Firefox... and hopefully most other browsers... See code below: Code:

1. Load the page.<br>
2. Click Item 4.<br>
3. Click Item 2.<br><br>
Why is the bottom border of the menuelements (table cells) not getting correct in Firefox?<br>
None-active menuelements should have a border-bottom = black, active should have same bottom-border as page.<br>
Notice that I use border-collapse on the table in order to get the cell-border 1px thick between the menuitems.<br>
If I remove border-collapse, then there is no strange behaviour in Firefox.<br>
Any way to get this working in Firefox without breaking it in IE?

I'm a little puzzled by this weird display bug by IE7, this bug doesn't occur in IE6. It had to do with the DIV's CSS's border-style. If you set it to double then you notice some random bugs with it. Some of the time, the border is displayed without a problem. Some of the time, it is displayed with some gaps in the line as if it is not being drawn upon. Some of the other time, it is not displayed at all. I noticed if I switch from one tab to another then back, the border appeared as if nothing had happened. I also noticed that if I open the view source that overlapp the web browser then closed it, the border appeared as if nothing had happened. How do you fix that problem? Thanks... Hi, This used to be my solution: Code: <table border=1 bordercolorlight='#CCCCCC' Bordercolordark='#FFFFFF'> But this only works well on IE - not Mozilla Now I want to use CSS: Code:
.results {
border: 1px solid #CCCCCC ;
}
Code: <table class='results'> --------------- The problem is, with CSS, only the TABLE acquires the border property. The cells within it don't. If I specify Code: <td class='results'> for all the cells in the table, this also won't work, because the cell borders overlap each other and some border lines seem thicker than others (because of overlapping). Is there any simple way I can specify the border property for the table - in ONE declaration? I want the table and td borders all to be a simple 1px width ...is that possible in one declaration? Thanks a lot! I would like to set up a table with a different border than the cells inside it. Here's my code: Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

</head>

That's all hunky dory in (gasp!) IE, but good browsers...they only show the lighter gray color. How do I get the table border to be different? How do you create an inner border around a table in css, rather than a "solid" border which creates a border line around the table on the outer half. The border needs to butt up against an image, rather than leaving a pixel space. This is the coder I have so far. Nothing big: Code:
.solid {
border: solid 1px #000000;
}
Thanks. OK, I'm doing the ALA trick where you construct a menu from an unordered list and its list items. Very watered down example here but suppose my menu consists of a horizontal row of text links, with each link separated by a vertical line. In my CSS I am giving the <li> container a right border that is 1px thick and black. This creates the vertical line for each link. The problem here is that the last link in the menu should not have a vertical line following it. I thought this would be an easy fix - I created a style that rendered no borders and called it via the class attribute of the <li>. Unfortunately, this dis not make the border disappear for the last menu item. All other properties defined in that style are rendered properly but the border property set in the <li> will not be overridden. Here's some code: Code: #bdrtest ul {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style: none;
}
#bdrtest li {
float: left;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
border-right: 1px solid #000;
}
#bdrtest li a {
padding: 2px 10px;
}
.noborder {
border: 0;
}
and Code: <div id="bdrtest"> <ul> <li><a href="#">hello</a></li> <li class="noborder"><a href="#">world</a></li> </ul> </div> Now, if I use an inline style to remove the border, it displays as expected: Code: <li style="border: 0;"><a href="#">world</a></li> It also displays as expected if I redefine the scope of my style: Code: #bdrtest li.noborder {
border: 0;
}
I'd like to be able to use my .noborder style globally. Any idea as to what I'm doing wrong? how to create the free products heading over the border... with the border cut for tht part of the box ??? Hi, I'm trying to apply a background/border to a page. The site is at forsythproducedirect.com, and i'm trying to apply a similar background to pauleys.co.uk, minus the top green 'bar', so it'll just be running up the sides with the space behind the content still white. Does anyone have any idea how i'd go about it? I'd really appreciate any help! Cheers, Graeme Hi all currently trying to move away from a table based layout into a cleaner looking css layout with a problem. http://www.prxa.info/area51/viewtopic.php?tid=1 The top section is the css version, where as the bit below it is using tables. I am trying to get the "container" class to encompass the whole top bit which i am doing, but the border of it refuses to appear? This is the css bits html: Code:
<div class="container">
<div class="topicoptions">
<div style="float: left; width: 17%">
<a href="viewtopic.php?tid={$post['topic_id']}" class="topicoptions">#{$this->post_count}</a>
</div>
<div style="float: right; width: 83%; text-align: right;">
{$this->mod_options} {$topic_options}
</div>
</div>
<div style="float: left; width: 17%">
<div class="contentbox">
<div align="center">
{$avatar}
{$lang['postedby']} {$profile_link} <br />
{$post_count}<br />
{$lang['postedon']}: {$date_time}
</div><br />

<br />
<br />
{$signature_finish}
{$edited}
</div>
</div>
</div>
As you can see "container" covers all of it, and the css is simply a 1px border, i cannot see where i am going wrong. Thanks for taking the time to read my question. I want to get rid of the right border on the last link but keep the borders on the rest of the <li>'s. I'm totally stuck. Thanks, Brad CSS: Code: #navcontainer ul
{
padding-left: 40px;
margin-left: 0;
background-color: #000000;

float: left;
width: 100%;

It works fine in firefox, however does not work in IE; there is a border between the menu and the main container. How do I fix that? Also, I have another problem. With the menu, I made the menu item that is selected have a larger border on the bottom; I did this so that the border would go over the top of the white border around the main content area, so the white border would be invisible under the selected button. Make sense? Well, I'm trying to do the same thing with the "Test Block" area. I want the bit where it says "Test Block" to have a border on the left, top and right. I want the bit where it says "Testing" twice to have a border on the left, bottom and right, and also on the top but not where the "Test Block" bit joins this. I tried doing the same as the menu, ie giving the "Test Block" a larger border, but this time it actually makes the div bigger rather than overlapping the second one. Any idea how to fix that? OK, so I have a grid from a table. I have it so each td has a boarder on the top and left side - the td to the right/down of that is supposed to make up the boarder of the bottom and right hand side of the first td. However... there is a 1 pixel gap where they don't connect... obviously because this space is reserved for a boarder that originally would be there. Is there any way to get rid of this gap? Thank you. Hi, I am trying to box around a text, but what happen is that when I setting up borders for it, it shows the box expand longer than the text. Is there a way to have the box just as big as the text (Well, slightly bigger, but just enough for the text)? I thought border-collapse:collapse would do it, but apperantly not. This is the CSS code I am using: PHP Code: div.submenu1 { position: relative; left: 22px; padding: 4px; border-style: solid; border-width: 0px 1px 1px 1px; border-color: #0000FF; border-collapse: collapse; background-color: #3399FF } And on the html it's: PHP Code: <div class='submenu1'> <a href='somelink' class='submenu1'>somelink</a> </div> Hey everyone! So I'm trying to make a site. I'm not using any tables, and I want to have a border for each side of the page. I can't use a background because the page changes width based on the users browser width. My CSS and HTML are verified. Anyways, for the right and left borders, this is the code I have: HTML: Code: <!-- Border --> <div id="left_border"></div> <div id="right_border"></div> <div id="left_border_top"></div> <div id="right_border_top"></div> <!-- End Border --> and for the CSS I have this: Code:
/*Site Border Full*/
#right_border{
background-image: url(img/layout/site_right_border.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
width: 3px;
height: 100%;
float: right;
position: absolute;
right: -3px;
}
#left_border{
background-color: #94aec5;
width: 1px;
height: 100%;
float: left;
position: absolute;
left: -1px;
}
#right_border_top{
background-image: url(img/layout/header_right_border.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
width: 3px;
height: 74px;
float: right;
position: absolute;
right: -3px;
z-index: 1000;
}
#left_border_top{
background-color: #496986;
width: 1px;
height: 74px;
float: left;
position: absolute;

z-index: 1000;
}
/*End Site Border Full*/
Here's the results I'm getting in Firefox: As you can see the border displays until you get to the content area (with the text below). It seems to be because for the content area, I set the height to 100%. When I change that to a definite number (ie. 300px) the border displays. And here's how it displays in Internet Explorer 7: There's no border at all on this one! Here's my entire code for the site: HTML: Code:

So, is there any way for me to border the entire site with a 1 px border on the left side, and a y-repeating 3px image "border" on the right side? Any ideas would be GREATLY appreciated! If you need any more info than I've given you, please ask! Thanks guys! Mike So here's my css code Code:
#top-div {
border-top : 10px solid #FF8F00;
width:100%;
position:relative;
top:-8px;
}
The intention is suppose to make an orange strip across the top of the page. The problem is that the left and right border of the div is not orange - specifically the top-right, top-left borders are not orange. So basically the strip is not stretch 100% from the otter most left to the otter most right side. Any advice? I'm making a dashed border, and I was wondering how can I change the pixel size and color of the border? It's been awhile for me since I've used CSS or HTML but here's what I have(I know this isn't the proper formatting, but it's for a xanga site so the way it's entered doesn't really matter =\) <style="text/css"> #box { border-style:dashed; width:700px; position:absolute; } </style> <div id="box"> <div id="da"><p>Da..daa...da da Da</p> </div> <div id="muh"><p>muh numa nah</p> </div> </div> Hi, I'm a total newbie when it comes to .. well everything. HTML, CSS etc ... I'm working on a little site, but I have a problem on (apparantly I can't post the link to my site because I'm a new user.. ) In Firefox everything is OK. But in IE when I hover over the bottom Div's (delphi.exe file) and (Delphi-files) I get a solid border instead of a dashed border as I wrote down in the CSS. Any idea what the problem is? Is it needed for me to post the CSS file? Might be a little bit embarrasing as it's probably the most rediculous CSS file you've ever seen. Thank you for your time. |
