CSS - Targeting An Element In Different Frame
I'm building some pages on a learning platform and i'm limited to using in-line styles. The platform is built in a frameset, and I would like to use my in-line styles to target an element in a different frame.
I can find information about the "target" frameset name, frame name, element class etc, but don't have the option to change any of the markup here. Is this possible? I have tried playing around the the @frame rule but couldn't seem to get it to work - not sure if i'm using the correct syntax. Any ideas? Similar TutorialsHi guys, I've this two frame page there the top frame is a static header and the main frame is the content holder. I've an drop list in the top frame but it exceeds the length of the frame and part of it becomes inaccessible. What I would like to know is if is possible to make that element to show up above the frameset, that is, it would start on the top frame but it would show the rest of the menu above the main frame, something like having a higher z-index than the frameset. Any help appreciated Thx Hugo I have the following unordered list that Im cssing into a hover out menu: Code: <ul>
<li><a href="#saveasnew" rel="saveasnew" class="lbOn">Save As New Page</a></li>
<li><a href="splash_preview.php" onclick="window.open('splash_preview.php'); return false;">Preview</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Change Status</a>
<ul>
<li><a href="#">Deactivate</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Activate</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="#">Edit other page</a>
<ul id="pagelist">
<li> : First Splash Page (active) </li>
<li>2006-07-26 09:39:07: Splash Page 2 (inactive) </li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
Here's the code that handles the hover outs Code: div#AdminMenu ul li ul {
margin:0;
z-index:10; /* puts drop-down on top of div - Safari needs this as menu is 1px higher */
position:absolute; /* positions the drop-down ul in relation to its relatively positioned li parent */
width:10em; /*sets the width of the menu - in combo with the li's 100% width, makes the menu stack*/
border-right:0; /* stops SCBs drops having two right borders - they inherit the border, IE doesn't */
left:-1px; /*aligns the drop exactly under the menu */
}
I want to change the width of the ul that has the id=pagelist, so that it is longer to accomadate the longer menu items. I tried accessing it like div#AdminMenu ul li ul ul ul#pagelist #pagelist ul but none of those seemed to work. Thanks, Mark Hi There, I am working with an online educational system and working to style it accordingly. The system has "modules" that contain information of various types in their own distinct boxes. I would like to target each heading and style it individually ie different colours etc. I know this is probably a very basic problem and I'm relatively new to the process, but any help would be much appreciated. Here is the html generated by the system for one of the boxes "module:_148_1" ...............Start HTML Snippet <div class="portlet clearfix " id="module:_148_1"> <!-- extid:148: --> <h2 class=" "> <span class="moduleTitle" >What's happening at Ivanhoe</span> </h2> <div class="edit_controls"> </div> <div class="collapsible" style="overflow: auto;"> ............................End HTML Snippet My Current generalised styling on all boxes is achieved via the following css #moduleTitle, .portlet h2 { color: #fff; padding: 4px 52px 5px 6px; background: #13770a; background-image:url(images/headings_details.png); background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:right top; margin: 0; font-size:110%; font-weight:bold; position:relative; vertical-align:middle; overflow:visible; } As an example, if I wanted to target this particular module with ID module:_148_1 and set the background colour to #a0012e how would I best achieve this? Many thanks Chris I have searched to ... and back and can not find out how to target "leftcolumn" menu item to open in "rightcolumn". Using "ID" tag is not a option since it is already used in menu item string. I have tried every combination but the right one. I hope I have included enough of the script to resolve the problem. <style type="text/css"> } .leftcolumn { position: absolute; top: 26px; left: 0px; width: 200px; height: 600px; text-align: justify; } </style> <div id="dmlinks" style="font:bold 14px Trebuchet MS;color:#000000;text-decoration:none"> <a id="dmI0" href="spartaumc.html" target="rightcolumn">Home</a> <a id="dmI1" href="spartaumc_history.html" target="rightcolumn">History</a> <a id="dmI2" href="location.html" target="">Location</a> </div> </head> <body> <div ="rightcolumn"> </div> </body> 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. Can anyone explain the difference between the two? For example, what is the difference between: this: element element {} div p { } and this: element > element { } div > p { } I don't understand it and have not found an explanation in tireless searching. Thx! How do you make a div stay in one place, while allowing the rest of the page to be scrolled? For example, let's say I had a page with the menu at the top, horizontally centered. How would I make it so when you scroll down, that menu stays at the top? Iv bin told to look into fram emulation in CSS to keep a layer in a set position on screen when the page is scrolled down or up. I wonder if anyone could shed some light on this for me, or point me in the direction of a good article. Help appreciated. I have a DIV element in a menu system that pops up when you hover over the parent menu. Everything in the menu works fine, however I need to embeed the navigation including the menu into a frame where the menu sits flush with the bottom of the frame it's in and when you mouse over the parent element the DIV that pops up is hidden by the frame below it. Like so: --- frame 1 ------ <content> <menu> --- frame 2 ------ <main content> ... ... ------------------ Is there anyway with CSS to tell the DIV to float above the bottom frame? Hello everyone.

I need this page & cross browser -------------------- - W-100% H-121px - <--- non-Scrolling -------------------- -#############- <--- W - 100px -#############- <--- H - auto -#############- <--- Scrolling -#############- -------------------- Im using frames now, it was a quick fix. for what I needed. now I got to get away from from them. I need this to be full screen and resizeable Thanks for any help you can offer Thanks Hello, I am trying to make the switch over to CSS positioning for my website design, but I am having some trouble with how my site is currently designed. I have a frames page that uses the main section for all my content and a footer section that basically contains a footer that I need to have at the bottom of my pages all the time. My question is whether there is a way to position a CSS layer to do what that bottom frame is doing for me? It needs to be achored to the bottom of the screen and be there all the time. Any help is appreciated! Thanks Jamie For this issue I only use CSS (and HTML). I am trying to learn some CSS. I've got a 'traditional' setup of parts/pieces of a website. Like first there is a piece I call header with some header information and that thing. Then I've got some navigation piece/part on the left of the screen and the rest I use as content. So far no troubles. Now in the content part I use several pieces/boxes where I put some (selling)objects. Now I want that everything to happen in the content piece/area, so If I click at an object in the content area I wish to take some actions in that same content area, but then the whole content area. Also I'd like to refer everything I click in the navigation area to happen in the content area/piece. When you use frames, then you can make a different frame of the content area and you'll refer to it as being a target frame. Can I do this using CSS or am I missing something. My site has 3 frames, the top and bottom frames are 50px high and the middle frame has the main content, I can't change the code of the middle frame as it is someone else's site but I am wondering if I can make something "float" in the corner of that middle frame (ie bottom left). I was thinking of putting my code on a separate page and making a iframe float but I don't know if this is possible. (the code outputs what I need floated so floating iframe seems like the logical choice to me...) Is it possible to setup a frame to adjust? I ran into a problem with my menu being on the left side of the screen in its own frame, when it expands it needs about twice as much space otherwise another frame on the right of this frame cuts off the text and buttons from the menu, (this frame is used to display documents inside of it.) Originally I did not think it would be a problem but I just realized that some of the documents need a lot of room horizontally do to images and descriptive frames being inside of the docs, thus causing the reader to have to keep scrolling from side to side in order to read the paragraphs. Is there some way to get the frame with the menu to adjust according to the size of the menu as the user mouses through it, or a way to make the menu float over the doc viewing frame as the user mouses through it and just make the menu frame big enough to fit the menu when it is not being used, or another alternative all together? Thanks for reading. I know that nobody uses frames any more and I'm not in favour of them myself but as part of a programming assignment I have to create a page with frames. I want to have no frame borders visible but I can't for the life of me get the correct syntax. I can make the frames seamless using inline commands like frameborder="no" Border="0" and framespacing="0" but I'd like to put these into a css. Hi: I have an logo image at my page, if you leave the image as non hyperlink, the image shows OK and nicely, when I make the image as a hyper link, there is a ugly frame around the image bordor, I can not get rid of it, I have some a.h/a.w/a css properties in my css file, since I am not fully understand this a.w/ a.h, can some one help me I'm playing with some stylesheets which are using css to mimic a framed left sided menu. The div for the menu should be static and the div for the remainder of the content scrolls if required... All worked as required until I integrated a form which I built at formassembly.com , and now, in IE6, the form won't scroll within the main div. Couldn't get any solutions from their forum, so I'm hoping a CSS 'Guru' here may be able to shed some light.. demo page TIA Solfer |
