CSS - How To Make A Layer Above Text And Below A Table?
Hey folks, i'm trying to get the effect of the following image:
http://www.dgemu.com/Images/first_steps.jpg Basically I got it all set up 'cept for Metroid's image, which is just driving me insane.. I used absolute positioning on the metroid image so I could use relative positioning on that table thingy and use z-index to put it there, but I'm having problems with the text - it goes behind the image ahhhh - what can I do? I was thinking perhaps adding relative positioning for the text too and make it above the image but what I want is to not touch the image - u know like u do float:right on the image - but I can't use float 'cuz then the z-indexing thing messes up.. hmm.. can anyone help me?

Hello, I am very new to CSS, having only used stylesheets for basic formatting of text, etc. I have created a site where the layout is based on tables (I know ... when I have spare time, I will start learning CSS for this). I have a main table with 1 row and 1 column, height 95%, width 100%. Within this I have a table with a fixed layout (set height, width) for the table elements. This table is centre and middle aligned. Unfortunately the text provided for one of the cells in the table is exceeding the amount expected and the cell height has increased to accommodate for this. I thought of creating a layer and placing it over the cell and inserting the text here and setting the overflow to scroll. However, depending on screen resolution, browser the layer is not always positioned where I want it. Can I somehow position the layer relative to the table cell ? If not, do you have any suggestions as to what I can do to fix this. I do not have the option to rewrite the site using CSS, due to deadlines. Thanks in advance for your help. Bea Hello, I have too work with 3rd party code which I am not allowed to modify. It is .jsp code that calls(includes) a header file which I am alloud to modify. However the header unfortunatly is trapped inside a table cell that is 540 px wide but I want my header to span the full width of the page. I built the Header.jsp with a css layer. If I set the layer property to width=100% well 100% of 540 is 540 so it comes out short. If I set the absolute px width than at 860 screen resolution the header gets cut off. Here is some 'view source' code to just generate the .jsp to html: </head> <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td align="center"> <!------------------------------The Login Page calls itself to verify login info and then redirects---------------> <TABLE width="540" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" > <TR> <TD align="left" valign="top" nowrap> <form NAME="Login" onSubmit="return checkRequired()" ACTION="LoginValidate.jsp" METHOD="post"> <input type="hidden" name="finalize" value="0"> <!------------------------------------------------------HEADER---------------------------------------------------------> <p> </p> <div id="Layer1" style="position:absolute; width:100%; height:115px; z-index:1; top: 0;"> <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 align="center" width="100%"> Blah blah blah. So you see that a 100% table is created then a 540px table with the 'include/header.jsp' code. So Basically is there a way to break out of the table cell? I understand 'float' allows you to overide the inherited structure but it does'nt really apply here? here is a url: URL The header at the top needs to span the whole page. The header file is the upper blue banner as well ast the light blue faded banner logo. Thanks in advance... I would like to pop up the text, that is, make it bigger when the user hovers on it. but the problem everytime the text gets bigger, the whole row moves and the surrounding texts gets displaced. any idea ? tutorial? let me know if i need to explain more. Hello I thought I could make it, but what I got so far is jumping over the screen, so please a need some help. I got a image with two transparant shapes. Behind those shapes I would like to show 2 other images. |-------1-------| | |-----| |----| | | |...2..| |..3..| | | |____| |____| | |_____________| Image 1 should be on top z-Index Image 2 should under image 1, a part of the image should be visible. Image 3 should under image 1, a part of the image should be visible. Now the issue, image 2 and 3 should be dynamically replaceable. Please help Thanks I have a textarea in a <td>which asks for users for some description. If users enter text and don't use any space or enter, the width of the table gets bigger and bigger and damages the pages design. What can I add (to td.fixed_width css for example )to make the line break after the width of the table is reached??? There is a solution that I put a div in td and then Code: #desc {
width:"100%";
width::fixed;
overflow:scroll;}
but it is not exactly what I want Hello: I am building a ecommerce site, there are featured product on frontpage, I want to make a square border for each product, I have done top border and bottom border, but I don't know how to make the vertical lines on the right and left to make a nice square border with rounded corner the html structure is as followings table-----for the top border table-----to display product image and price, all that table-----for the bottom border I know by putting in css code for the middle table will be able to close this border could anyone tell me how? In the html below I want to make the text more narrow (to gert the letters cloer to each other). I read about Css-property font-strech but I cannot get it more narrow. Could someone help?

Like when I make a field.. <fieldset> <fieldset> How can I then make something like, when typing in <text> it'll stay in a locked field. And when clicking "Save" it will send the text to my email? Please help. Would be really cool with a code below. I know it's really easy but i forgot how to do it! Please post the code here thanks! Issue is I've got text that I want in a certain place on the page. I've run into this situation time and time again, thankfully I've always worked out a creative solution, however I've just been avoiding the problem. It's not something I can use center, or bottom or anything like that on. I've got an image that's in sort of an odd position on the page. I want to have a link directly centered under that image but I can't seem to get the text where I want it. Any suggestions? Currently I have this: <div style="padding:5px; overflow:auto; border:1px solid #c0c0c0; font-size:13px; background: #EEE;"> mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm dddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd </div> I want to make it so that it will always stay on 1 line, and a horizontal scroll bar will appear if the window gets too narrow. How can I do this? edit: I can't use <pre> tags because the destroy the formatting in a more annoying way. i am trying to make the same effect like phpMyAdmin (when you put your mouse over a row of a table the entire table lights up, not just the links) whats the best way to do this, it looks like it seems the only way to do it is with javascript and css but all the the solutions ive tried ot search for doesnt do what i want it to do hi I am shifting to web 2.0 therefore learning a lot of things that I used to do with tables. Now I have a task to make a form and also display text in parallel style e.g Name User Name ------- Rating stars Email User Email ------- Balance amount to accomplish this in tables we might make two cells to hold Name, EMail in one and Rating and Balance in the second then in each CELL further rows and cells for each entity e.g Name User Name how can we display this kinda info using pure CSS? I found a website online http://www.compare-voip.net/viatalk.php there towards the bottom you can see how the email and rating stats are displayed in two columns, this is done with tables though I want to do the same with CSS only thanks in advance I'm trying to make a small box that is entirely clickable with text inside that is not underlined. Could someone explain to me why this code does not work, and what I need to do to fix it? Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

Because the text under the Header Contentright is so long I would like to make a scrollbar for the text of contentrigth but withoud the Header contentrigth, so that you alwaus see the header when scrolling the text.

I am very, very new at web design, and would like to make a colored background behind text, although I am sure that is not the right name for it! For example, in this this website I would like to emulate how to make that curved rectangular background behind the Online Poll, but I have no clue what the name or the source code behind it that makes it so! If anyone could even just give me the proper name for it so I can google it, I would be very thankful! OK...thbbt. Situation 1 (the one that works as I want) Code: <table style="width: 100%">
<tr>
<td style="width: 15em">Column 1</td>
<td>Column 2</td>
</tr>
</table>
In Situation 1, the second column expands to be all of the remaining width. This is good. Situation 2 Code: <table style="width: 100%">
<tr>
<td style="width: 15em">Column 1</td>
<td>Column 2</td>
<td>Column 3</td>
</tr>
</table>
In Situation 2, column 2 and 3 share the remaining space. I want column 2 to take no more than exactly the space it needs. I want column 3 to expand to take all the remaining space. The only way I've found that (sorta) works is to actually use the old HTML width="" attribute and make it a percentage that's impossible. If you make it 95% or something, then all the other columns squeeze down pretty far. The issue with this approach is that it ignores the style width of the first column and just crushes it as much as possible. Anyone have an idea? Thanks Tim Hi guys I'm having a little problem with a <table> based website Please check the following image Each circle in the image attached is a separate image file, and I must make each image to be inside design. My problem is that the images doesn't fit in the <td> area, so well... Is there a way I can make the images float over the table ? I mean, a decent way to do this without having to convert entire design form <tables> to <divs> (PS: I'm still learning tableless designs) Thanks a lot in advance Hi I have this CSS style: .spacer { font-size: 1px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; } I use it as a 1pixel style in table colums that i want to be 1 pixel in width: <td width="1" bgcolor="#999999" class="spacer"> </td> in firefox and IE they are fine but in opera they get thinker, is there another setting i need to add to the CSS to prevent the browser from making the 1pixel width biger? also are there any other standard browser that i should make sure my site works on? cheers, bigals. |
