CSS - Overriding Css For A Single Form Element
On my site, we use CSS to change the appearance of all form fields, using the following:
INPUT { font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; color: #484848; background: #EFF4F9; border: 1px solid #484848; padding: 2px; } Unfortunately, I have a single submit button that for various reasons, I want to have looking like the normal, gray, ugly button. Is there some way to turn off the CSS for this single button? Or somehow override the CSS to make it look like a normal button? Similar TutorialsI'm making a page with what amounts to footnotes 1 . Some sources may be referenced more 2 than 2 once 2 , and when any of them is hovered over, I'd like all items in the same class to be highlighted 3 , so when i hover over this little number three 3 , I want this next number three 3 and the actual reference down below to all change color. Is there any to do this without using javascript? (I don't care if it doesn't work in IE6 - I know that has hover issues... 4 ) 1 - Like This! 2 - that one was used 3x 3 - This is red and so are all the little #3's up there 4 - I'm just using Firefox I am using a stylesheet to set some styles on my tables etc. I want to override a table that is inside of a <div> to use a separate style... is this possible and if so how? I tried using div id="idhere" and then setting a style with that ID but it didn't seem to work. Thank you. Hi, I am trying to add bottom borders and image bullets to only the first level of unordered lists and no matter what is code, I get them everywhere. Can someone offer some insight (or where I can get some) for targeting specific ul li levels? Thanks... Hi, Is there a way to tell the browser to replace certain colours with other colours? For example replace #FF0000 with #00FF00? Also is there anyway to refer to the parent of an element? Thanks, Matthew I'm making changes to a web application and right at the top of the CSS of the common header for the generated HTML there are pseudoclasses for the link colors. a:link a:hover.... etc. I was trying to change the color of a few links further down on the page by creating seperate classes and I was getting very odd results. Some links would change color and some would not. Finally I noticed the pseudoclasses at the top and commented them out. Suddenly all my colors looked GREAT in internet explorer, but it seems that Mozilla is ignoring my seperate classes and making the links into the browser default. Here is a summary of my generated code right now: CSS: a:link,a:active,a:visited { color : #5E6C85; } a:hover { text-decoration: underline; color : #DD6900; } .indnav { font-weight: bold; font-size: 11px; color : #000000; } a.indnav { text-decoration: none; color : #000000; } a.indnav:hover { text-decoration: underline; } HTML: <span class="indnav"><a href="index.php" class="indnav">(link text)</a></span> So what I would really like is for the pseudoclasses to apply for all links, except for when I define a specific class it should override the pseudoclasses. How do I do this? Thanks so much for your time in answering. I have a very simple form that has a select list and next to it a submit button. If I use a standard button for the submit then it sits next to the select list (on the right of it). If I change the submit button to an image it pushes the select list down by about 5 pixels. I have tried everything I can think of, everything is set to display:inline etc but I can't work out the problem. Any ideas? It happens on firefox and IE6 and probably all other browsers as well. I have one css file which is linked to all my html pages That css file defines a style for all my <a> tags ie - a:link, a:visited, a:hover etc. Theres one html file where i need a different style for some of the <a> tags ive set a sepecific class on these tags ie: <a class="set1" etc and in my css file ive tried the following .set1 a:link { etc } but for some reason this doesnt override the style on the generic a tags ie it seems to keep using a:link { } ignoring the .set1 a:link { etc } help! I have this tag in an external css file Code: td { text-align:left; //and yes i know that its left by default } Inside my html file I have a td with alignment set to right, which according to my understanding should override the external css file, however it doesn't. The content is still left aligned. Why is that? Thanks so... having this problem where i have some css styles applied to form inut boxes, and one of them asks for the user to input his/her email address. IE, thinking it's being helpful, is overriding my nice green background with an ugly yellow background. I've done some testing, and if i put the word "email", "e_mail", "e-mail", or even "mail_e" in either the html text NEXT to the blank, or in the name of the INPUT tag, IE assumes i want it to be yellow. any way of overriding this? CSS: Code: .inputBox { border: 1 solid black; background-color: #bcdd4a; font-size: 12; width: 200; height: 16; color: #145e16; font-weight: bold; } HTML: Code: <td valign=top>E-mail:</td> <td valign=top><input type="text" class="inputBox" name="emailAddress" size=20></td> IE Version: 6.0.2800.1106 LINK: http://www.t-2.biz/contact.php please help, frustration setting in. cheers \\ kfancy Hi there! http://pastebin.com/m46dae086 Basically, see line #218? I define a background image for my lists, and it works great. See line #473? I try to erase the background image if the <dl> class has the "forum" class attached to it. That background's not going away. What am I doing wrong? please delete Hi: As strange as it may seem, I need to hide the characters "<br>" (the line break characters between the quotes) on a form. The element is .ms-RadioText. Example: Current View: <br> - option 1 <br> - option 2 Desired View: - option 1 - option 2 Possible? Thanks- Charlie Epes Buffalo, NY Can a <form element hold inline elements? For example, Code: <form ... > <input .... /> I'm putting this bare text in this form even if I dunno if it's allowed haha </form> More generally, I know one can NEVER put a block-level element in an inline element. HOWEVER, IS IT ALWAYS possible to put inline elements in block elements ???? Thank you I am working in Drupal and have a menu with secondary levels. I have coded css on the menu a tag with borders and no background. .primary-menu-inner ul.sf-menu a { color: #FFFFFF; display:block; border-left:1px solid #ffcc33; border-right:1px solid #6f4c23; } I am trying to override the .primary-menu-inner ul.sf-menu li.active-trail .primary-menu-inner ul.sf-menu li.active-trail { background: url(../images/nav.png) no-repeat right -64px; border-bottom:1px solid #a67c52; border-right:1px solid #a67c52; border-left: 1px solid #38230b; visibility: visible; } to where the borders settings on the a tag does not show up on the li.active trail. Any suggestions would be great... Hey all, I'm having an issue with the float property. I have 2 nested div tags both floated left, to create two columns, but the div tag holding them doesn't seem to stretch around them. it's looks basically like this... <div id="container"> <div id="leftCol"> stuff </div> <div id="rightCol"> more stuff, WOOT! </div> </div> I only run into the problem with FireFox, so i know that i'm not doing something right! Can anyone help.. thanks! hi my page involves having a form element inside of a div. the div is floated left. relevant (seemingly) css from my stylesheet & html code (all simplified for readability) form { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; } .mydiv { float: left; } html looks vaguely like: <div class="mydiv"><form name="blah" action="blahblah"> .... all form controls </form></div> PROBLEM!!!! in mozilla, none of the form elements display. in ie, everything displays as expected. PLEASE HELP ME BEFORE I GO INSANE AND START KILLING INNOCENT PEOPLE. thanks in advance. d In my main CSS file, the background-color is set to #FFFFFF (white) however this also erased my background images in the cells of my table i have tried to add them with style tags, but the main CSS still overrides Top of the table + cell with bg PHP Code: <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" align="center"> <tr> <td width="766" height="295" valign="top" style="background-image:url(images/row1.gif); background-repeat:no-repeat "> This is the main CSS: PHP Code: body,td,th { font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 11px; color:#5D5D5D; background-color:#FFFFFF; } body { font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 11px; color:#5D5D5D; background-color:#FFFFFF; } Forms are needed to submit values, of course. But they may also change the formatting on a page when included. If I want to include a form just to contain hidden input fields, or even include it otherwise for some other reason, it will affect formatting. Is there a way to disable all presentational effects caused by inserting a form tag? I'm assuming this would involve CSS. Skolem Hi, My page has 3 elements: one at the top(header banner), one in the middle (a middle content area) and one at the bottom (footer banner). Now I want those positions to remain intact regardless of the number of lines output in the middle element. The content is going to be determined at runtime by a server-side routine so I don't want to use a fixed positioning for the footer banner. I want it to be displayed at the bottom - after the middle content is displayed. And I want the middle content to be visible in the page i.e. I don't want a scroll area within the page. I have tried various approaches and read up on positioning but so far have not been able to do it using css. Any help is much appreciated. Jim I have an navigation menu that I am building as an unordered list. What I have is an image rollover that appears at the bottom of the navigation menu when the cursor hovers over one of the first level links by using a span within the link that has its display set to none, and then set to absolute positioned directly below the navigation menu on a:hover. Here is an example: Code: <ul> <li> <a href="link1.html" id="link1">Link<span></span></a> </li> </ul> .link a { some link height } .link a span { display: none; } .link a:hover span { position: abolute; top: (some link height * the number of links); background-image: (some image url) width: (image width) height: (image height) } Appearance: ------ Link1 Link2 Link3 Link4 ------- ------- Rollover Image to appear here ------- The problem that I have is that since the rollover image is positioned absolutely, if the size of the list of links changes (IE with sub-links in the list) it slides under or over where I have the rollover image placed. IE ------ Link1 sublink1 sublink2 Link2 Link3 Link4 ------- will break my scheme. Is there a way to get the span within the link to show up relative to the bottom of the <ul> element, or at the bottom of an element that contains the whole shebang? If I cant get this to work, I'm going to be forced to adopt the existing tables/javascript based template for our site, and I'd hate hate hate to do that. thanks. |
