CSS - Yahoo Css Grid Template Library?
Has anyone here used / looked at the Yahoo CSS Grid Template Library?
http://developer.yahoo.com/ypattern...hp?pattern=grid Any opinions on the idea of using it as the foundation for site layouts? I'm really having trouble wrapping my mind around the concepts for two - three column table-less CSS layouts. It looks like a viable shortcut... Similar TutorialsHey everyone, I have been working on a sudoku php / html game using sessions but I have run into an issue. Here is the link to my page http://waynemarsh.byethost9.com/sudoku.php , my problem is that in Opera and IE the page doesn't look like i would think the code says it would. in firefox, safari, epiphany, konqueror, firefox 1.0-2.0, mozilla 1.7/netscape 7, it looks great in netscape 6 it shows 3 9x3 grids on top of each other about 2 pixels offset in IE 5/5.5/6/7 & opera 7 it looks like a crossword in opera 8/9 it looks like 9 3x3 grids in one column of course netscape <= 4.8, ie <= 4, it just doesn't show, who uses them anyway? in lynx well, it's lynx, all the text inputs show up below each other so there are 81 vertical inputs from what I see in the code, it should show fine. anyone have any ideas? what could it be? i'm mostly worried about the opera browsers the issue seems like it's somewhere with .sudoku_grid Hi there, How do I use CSS to format a list into a 3x4 grid of boxes? I'v tired using float:left but then a one item is taller than another it goes mad, pushing everything out of place. eg. html code: <ul> <li>item 1</li> <li>item 2</li> <li>item 3</li> <li>item 4</li> <li>item 5...</li> and so on </ul> Or is there better of doing this? Thanks, Sorry for the boring thread. What I am basically trying to do is make a grid of numbers (its for a small calendar), and I want to do it using css. Would appreciate any suggestions for the best way to go about it. (an expample is the HTML code that it would be) Code: <table width="150" border="1"> <tr><td>1</td><td>2</td><td>3</td><td>4</td><td>5</td><td>6</td><td>7</td></tr> <tr><td>8</td><td>9</td><td>10</td><td>11</td><td>12</td><td>13</td><td>14</td></tr> <tr><td>15</td><td>16</td><td>17</td><td>18</td><td>19</td><td>20</td><td>21</td></tr> <tr><td>22</td><td>23</td><td>24</td><td>25</td><td>26</td><td>27</td><td>28</td></tr> <tr><td>30</td><td>31</td><td>32</td><td>33</td><td>34</td><td>35</td><td>36</td></tr> </table> I am not to bad at the css thing but this got me foxed... I started of by indenting the margin of each <td> as <div> and appling a more negative of a top margin for each one... it started to get confusing! Cheers, hey guys im makling an auto dealer script for my buddy and i have an inventory page that show like a catalogue. pic and info in a table. i would like to make it that each new info is a diffrent color. like product one blue background product 2 yellow then it starts back to blue.. like a table grid view in php my admin .. Hello everyone, after a good bit of browsing around in an attempt to understand how to apply push/pull as supporter by the 960 css FW I've utterly failed. I'm simply doing the layout right now to see where to place elements and so forth, and as far as I understand the following code would push the logo box 3 columns up (3*60=180px): Code: <div class="grid_6 push_3"> <p>logo</p> </div> Whilst this here, would pull one of my textboxes back 6 columns (6*60=360px); Code: <div class="grid_3 pull_6"> <p>text column</p> </div> Yet while using dreamweaved and previewing the page in firefox, for some reason, even after saving the index page, i still get the logo box on the top left corner, so anyone able to tell me why it wont adhere to the pushes and pulls? Oh btw, these DIV's are place inside of the <body> tags. And here's the full code of body so far: Code: <body> <div class="grid_6 push_3"> <p>logo</p> </div> <div class="grid_3 pull_6"> <p>text column</p> </div> <div class="grid_3"> <p>text column</p> </div> <div class="grid_12"> <p>big box</p> </div> </body> Hello, I know basic css and html, but not much more than that. However, the site I am attempting to build is very simple, so hopefully someone here can help me stumble my way through the process. Here is an example of what I want: URL ...and when I add new content: URL I want a css grid of identical square containers, with a thumbnail in each one. The tricky part is getting the differently-sized thumbnails to be vertically centered in the containers without having to set each one by hand. This is where I have gotten so far- http://jimtierneyart.com/test/test.html Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <style type="text/css"> body { margin : auto; } .wrapper { width: 900px; border: 1px solid #bbbbbb; margin: 50 auto; } .item { line-height: 223; text-align: center; float: left; width: 223px; height: 223px; border: 1px solid #dddddd; background: #EBEBEB; } img.a { margin: auto; max-width:120px; border:0; max-height:175px; } </style> </head> <body> <div class="wrapper"> header <BR> <BR> <div class="item"> <img class="a" src="image.gif"> </div> <div class="item"> <img class="a" src="image.gif"> </div> <div class="item"> <img class="a" src="image.gif"> </div> <div class="item"> <img class="a" src="image.gif"> </div> <div class="item"> <img class="a" src="image.gif"> </div> <div class="item"> <img class="a" src="image.gif"> </div> <div class="item"> <img class="a" src="image.gif"> </div> <div class="item"> <img class="a" src="image.gif"> </div> <div class="item"> <img class="a" src="image.gif"> </div> <div class="item"> <img class="a" src="image.gif"> </div> </div> </body> </html> I need 2 things to happen: 1. The parent container must be centered on the page (this worked fine until I added the Doctype tags. 2. the thumbnails must be vertically centered within the child containers. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I would really appreciate some help. Hi If editors add 6 content items to a page in the CMS, the template should generate 2 rows and each row contains 3 items. if 4 items are added, two rows are needed with 2 items in each row and so on. Does CSS help here or would you recommend to work with the classical table-tr-td-approach and use modula? Hi Please let me know if I am posting what is required for answering my questions as I would like to make things as easy as possible for you. Here is my first problem:- I have been trying to move our sitesdesign across to being css based and in the large part have succeeded but I have run into difficulties when it comes to displaying our results. I am trying to wrap 9 search results on a page using float but the results I am getting are different between mac IE 5.1, opera 5 Mac (not that bothered though) and Windows IE 6.0. My problem is that on windows the float works as it should and wraps so that I have a grid of 9 images, on a mac the images wrap but jump to the bottom of my left floated navigation and then continue the grid and on opera they just don't wrap. The URL is URL CSS file URL Can anybody shed any light on why this might happen as I am a little lost. TIA hanonman i just fell in love with the less framework system (lessframework.com) which does @media screen min-width and max-width to switch css styles to fit 4 different devices: a desktop browser, an ipad, a mobile device portrait or landscape. its based on a 68px grid with 24px gutters, BUT there is no grid class styles setup. its up to you to create! ...so i thought it would be great to mash this up with the 1kb grid system (1kbgrid.com) to control the layout of my content. Here's the problem... I can't figure out how to get the 1kb grid system to degrade with the screen width resizing. i'm using "overflow:hidden" in my "maincontent" div and put the 1kb grid default content within that. How can i get the column, row, and grid classes setup by 1kb grid to sort of "push" themselves to fit the main content div width? Hi all im building a site where I would like to present the users with an overview of products in either rows or in a grid.., displaying them in rows works fine, but I cannot get them to show in a grid ( 3 next to each other) can anyone point me to the right way to do this? here you see a page which shows products in rows.. edit.. apparantly I cannot post urls .. I do not manage to apply css to show them in a grid I think its should be done with float left, but i cannot implement this correctly help appreciated, K. Hello everyone, I've come here because I have a bit of a CSS quandry and was hoping you might be able to help. I want to use the Flickr badge to display the 8 most recent photos on my website, that are tagged - website. So, the javascript works fine and validates with a bit of tweaking, but I just cannot get the CSS to layout the photos as I want. Ideally this would be a 4x2 type grid with some padding in between each pic. I think one of the problems is the horizontal and vertical photos. The CSS Code: #flickr_badge_uber_wrapper {width:990px; text-align:center;} #flickr_badge_wrapper {padding:10px 0 10px 0;} .flickr_badge_image {margin:0 10px 10px 10px;} .flickr_badge_image img {border: 1px solid black !important; float:left;} #flickr_badge_source {text-align:left; margin:0 10px 0 10px;} #flickr_badge_icon {float:left; margin-right:5px;} #flickr_www {display:block; padding:0 10px 0 10px !important; font: 11px Arial, Helvetica, Sans serif !important; color:#3993ff !important;} #flickr_badge_uber_wrapper a:hover, #flickr_badge_uber_wrapper a:link, #flickr_badge_uber_wrapper a:active, #flickr_badge_uber_wrapper a:visited {text-decoration:none !important; background:inherit !important;color:#000000;} #flickr_badge_wrapper {} #flickr_badge_source {padding:0 !important; font: 11px Arial, Helvetica, Sans serif !important; color:#666666 !important;} .flickr_badge_image { margin-right: 10px; } #flickr_badge_image1 { margin-right: 10px; } #flickr_badge_image3 { margin-right: 10px; } #flickr_badge_image5 { margin-right: 10px; } #flickr_badge_image7 { margin-right: 10px; } #flickr_badge_image9 { margin-right: 10px; } Click here to see what I have so far Hope that CSS isn't too big. I'd be grateful for any pointers, as you might be able to tell, I am just hacking and slashing at code at this point. Cheers all - thanks for any help Jon I really need help for my wordpress blog I need it to have a front page.. and i want to link images from it to the new categories... but the problem is that I want it to be like a grid and don't want all the images in the same sizes.. so here goes this is how it is.. each color is a separate picture to of the exact size..

Hi, just writing to get peoples oppinions. i have created a template for standardising the way my collegues at work layout their style sheets. any feedback will be welcome; PHP Code: /* ==== General Rules ==== */ body { } h1 { } h2 { } h3 { } h4 { } h5 { } h6 { } p { } a:link, a:visited { } a:hover { } img { } th { } td { } dt { } li { } /* ==== Layout Rules ==== */ #topBar { } /* ==== Specific Rules ==== */ #topBar h1 { } #topBar h2 { } #topBar h3 { } #topBar h4 { } #topBar h5 { } #topBar h6 { } #topBar p { } #topBar a:link, #topBar a:visited { } #topBar a:hover { } #topBar img { } #topBar th { } #topBar td { } #topBar dt { } #topBar li { } #leftBar { } /* ==== Specific Rules ==== */ #leftBar h1 { } #leftBar h2 { } #leftBar h3 { } #leftBar h4 { } #leftBar h5 { } #leftBar h6 { } #leftBar p { } #leftBar a:link, #leftBar a:visited { } #leftBar a:hover { } #leftBar img { } #leftBar th { } #leftBar td { } #leftBar dt { } #leftBar li { } #rightBar { } /* ==== Specific Rules ==== */ #rightBar h1 { } #rightBar h2 { } #rightBar h3 { } #rightBar h4 { } #rightBar h5 { } #rightBar h6 { } #rightBar p { } #rightBar a:link, #rightBar a:visited { } #rightBar a:hover { } #rightBar img { } #rightBar th { } #rightBar td { } #rightBar dt { } #rightBar li { } #mainContent { } /* ==== Specific Rules ==== */ #mainContent h1 { } #mainContent h2 { } #mainContent h3 { } #mainContent h4 { } #mainContent h5 { } #mainContent h6 { } #mainContent p { } #mainContent a:link, #mainContent a:visited { } #mainContent a:hover { } #mainContent img { } #mainContent th { } #mainContent td { } #mainContent dt { } #mainContent li { } #bottomBar { } /* ==== Specific Rules ==== */ #bottomBar h1 { } #bottomBar h2 { } #bottomBar h3 { } #bottomBar h4 { } #bottomBar h5 { } #bottomBar h6 { } #bottomBar p { } #bottomBar a:link, #bottomBar a:visited { } #bottomBar a:hover { } #bottomBar img { } #bottomBar th { } #bottomBar td { } #bottomBar dt { } #bottomBar li { } #vNav { } /* ==== Specific Rules ==== */ #vNav h1 { } #vNav h2 { } #vNav h3 { } #vNav h4 { } #vNav h5 { } #vNav h6 { } #vNav p { } #vNav a:link, #vNav a:visited { } #vNav a:hover { } #vNav img { } #vNav th { } #vNav td { } #vNav dt { } #vNav li { } #hNav { } /* ==== Specific Rules ==== */ #hNav h1 { } #hNav h2 { } #hNav h3 { } #hNav h4 { } #hNav h5 { } #hNav h6 { } #hNav p { } #hNav a:link, #hNav a:visited { } #hNav a:hover { } #hNav img { } #hNav th { } #hNav td { } #hNav dt { } #hNav li { } /* ==== Custom Rules ==== */ .imgLeft { margin: 2px; float: left; } .imgRight { margin: 2px; float: right; } Here is index.php code. <body> <!--<a name="top"></a>!--> <div id="container"> <div id="header"> header stuff goes he </div><!-- Header --> <div id="container2"> <div id="container3"> <div id="content"> main content </div> <div id="sidebarLT"> left side bar </div> </div> <div id="sidebarRT"> right side bar </div> </div> <div id="top_navlist"> top nav will go here</div> <div id="footer"> footer info will go here </div></div> </body> </html> Here is CSS: /* CSS Document */ body { margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 30px; backround-color: #FFFFFF; } #container { width: 850px; margin: 0 auto; margin-top: 20px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; color: #666666; backround-color: #fff border: 1px solid #333; } #container2 { width: 850px; margin: 0 auto; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.6em; color: #666666; border: 1px solid #ff00cc; } container3 { width: 635 px; float: left; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.6em; color:#666666 border: 1px solid #ff00cc; } /*/ HEADER /*/ #header { width: 850px; height: 140px; border: 1px solid #ff6600; padding-left: 10px; padding-top: 10px; border: 1px solid #006600; float: right; } #content { width: 400px; padding-left: 10px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 10px; border: 1px solid #006600; float: right; } /*/ NAVIGATION /*/ #top_navlist { top: 20px; width:850px; line-height:normal; clear:both; border:1px solid #000066; position: absolute; } /*/ RIGHT SIDEBAR /*/ #sidebarRT { float: right; width: 175px; padding-left: 21px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 10px; border: 1px solid #000066; } /*/ LEFT SIDEBAR /*/ #sidebarLT { float: left; width: 175px; padding-left: 21px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 10px; border: 1px solid #00ff66; } /*/ FOOTER /*/ #footer { margin-top: 15px; padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; clear: both; width: 850px; background-color:#FFF; border: 1px solid #ff0066; } The issue is that the main content is to the right of the sidebarRT.

I can barely manage to change fonts, so please be gentle with me. I am quite capable of following straight forward instructions though so if you can help it would be much appreciated. I have a website (URL address blocked: PM me to get URL)/joomla that I'm playing with. The submenu's are where I have an issue - they appear exactly as I want when a menu item is selected (indented and normal font weight) however when a sub menu item is selected the indent dissappears and it treats it like a main menu item. Below is the code where I think the issue is. I've been googling like mad to see if anyone else has the same problem with this particular template but no joy. On a seperate note if there are any joomla template experts out there I would be happy to pay a reasonable fee to make some other modifications (basically the padding and position of the main column is all over the place dependent on the content that is displayed). I'd also like to upgrade this to joomla 1.6 at some stage. Enquired with a couple of "professional" Joomla developers and recieved no reply. I assume my requirements are too small for them to consider, and that they are just too rude to reply to say so. /*LEFT COL LINK*/ #leftcolumn ul.menu li a, #leftcolumn ul.menu li a:link, #rightcolumn ul.menu li a, #rightcolumn ul.menu li a:link { line-height: 18px; padding: 0 0 0 8px; text-decoration: none; font-size: 11px; background: url(../images/menu_row.jpg) center left no-repeat; margin: 0; height: 18px; color: #666666; font-weight: bold; } #leftcolumn ul.menu li a:hover, #rightcolumn ul.menu li a:hover { color: #4CAFC6; text-decoration: none; } /*LEFT COL CURRENT LINK*/ #leftcolumn ul.menu li#current a, #leftcolumn ul.menu li#current a:link, #rightcolumn ul.menu li#current a, #rightcolumn ul.menu li#current a:link { line-height: 18px; padding: 0 0 0 8px; text-decoration: none; color: #666666; font-weight: bold; font-size: 11px; background: url(../images/menu_row.jpg) center left no-repeat; margin: 0; height: 18px; } #leftcolumn ul.menu li#current a:hover, #rightcolumn ul.menu li#current a:hover { color: #4CAFC6; text-decoration: none; } /*LEFT COL SUB LINK*/ #leftcolumn ul.menu li#current ul li a, #leftcolumn ul.menu li#current ul li a:link { text-decoration: none; color: #666; margin: 0 0 0 6px; font-size: 11px; background: url(../images/submenu_row.jpg) center left no-repeat; font-weight: normal; display: block; line-height: 18px; padding: 0 0 0 18px; border: none; height: 18px; } #leftcolumn ul.menu li ul li#current a, #leftcolumn ul.menu li ul li#current a:link, #leftcolumn ul.menu li ul li#current a:visited, #leftcolumn ul.menu li ul li#current a:hover { font-size: 11px; margin: 0 0 0 6px; padding: 0 0 0 18px; text-decoration: none; border: none; color: #333; background: url(../images/submenu_row.jpg) center left no-repeat; height: 18px; line-height: 18px; } /*SUBMENU POSITION*/ #leftcolumn ul.menu li#current ul { margin: 0; padding: 0; } #leftcolumn ul.menu li#current ul li { margin: 0; padding: 0; } /*CURRENT SUBMENU POSITION*/ #leftcolumn ul.menu li ul { margin: 0; padding: 0; } #leftcolumn ul.menu li#current ul li a:hover { color: #333; } #leftcolumn ul.menu li ul, #rightcolumn ul.menu li ul { list-style: none; } Help!
