CSS - Overwriting Attribute(s)
Attempting to inherit all main attributes of a column, and modifying few, what is the correct way to inherit/overwrite the attributes of col3 here ?
Code: .col3, col3b { float: left; position: relative; background: #FFFFFF; width: 25%; height: 80%; left: 3%; border-left: 1px solid #333; margin: 3px 2px 4px 0; } .col3b { border-left: none !important; } Tried as well like: Code: .col3 { } .col3 .col3b { border-left: none !important; } note: not talking about a single 'inherit' value Similar TutorialsDear all. Trying to overwrite a general <a>-formatting. For <a> <img /> </a> I do not want to have this formatting. How can I do this? I appreciate if you spend some time looking on this snippet (also via attachment). What should happen: The <a>-Tag makes show a small x in front of the link. For <img>-Tags included in <a> I don't want to show them. Any ideas? Code: body { background-color: #C1CDA9; } a { background-image: url(arrow.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; padding-left: 22px; text-decoration: none; color: #990000; } a img { border: 1px solid white; background-image: none; /* ??? should remove background (cross) from picture 4 */ } #element { background-color: lightgrey; border: 1px solid grey; } #element a img { border: 5px solid red; } <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN"> <html> <head> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="style.css" /> </head> <body> <a href="#">Link</a><br /> 1<img src="eyecatcher.gif" /><br /> <a href="#">2<img src="eyecatcher.gif" /></a><br /> <div id="element"> <a href="#">Link</a><br /> 3<img src="eyecatcher.gif" /><br /> <a href="#">4<img src="eyecatcher.gif" /></a><br /> </div> </body> </html> I have a div containing some content from a database like so: Code: <div class="container"> Dynamic Content Here!!! </div> now, the dynamic content contains its own div and span elements, with their own css style attributes. Is there a way to make sure I overwrite the style elements of the inner divs/spans? I've tried applying classes to the div buts thats about all I can think of!? cheers, tom I have a list, within a narrow width. Several items are too wide, and wrap. This would be okay, but the next line is then written on top of the wrapped text. What property could I use to prevent this? An example is in the image below: Hello, I am hoping someone can help me. I've tried googling this and am not finding anything that helps or makes sense. I'm still relatively new to CSS. Anyway, here's my issue: I have a jquery navigation and have a style for the list in my <head> section. On one of my pages, I want to have a regular, vertical, bulleted list but something isn't letting it be vertical. I *think* it's the <head> style but I'm not sure. Would someone please have a look?

This is my final project for a class and this is the LAST thing not working. Thank you! SMCorning I have 2 content areas. One with id sidebar2 and another with id maincontent. I want the links in these separate content areas to have different hover colors and possibly other characteristics. My problem is, the styles for sidebar2 are being overwritten by the styles in maincontent as it is below it in the style sheet (cascade). The hover of the words "Good Game" in this example is green which clashes with the background of the sidebars content. It should be a blue color. Why does a completely separate id overwrite the styling in a previous id? How can I improve this code to get the desired results. Line numbers eg (line 140) are just referencing where the code appears within the stylesheet and are not actually in the css sheet. HTML example: <div id="sidebar2"> <h1>Daily Content</h1> <ul> <li> <a href="(URL)">Good Game</a> </li></ul> </div> #sidebar2 li a:link, li a:visited (line 140) { text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #336699; } #sidebar2 li a:active, li a:hover (line 148) { text-decoration: none; color: #2986aa; text-indent: 5px; font-weight: bold; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px; } #mainContent a:link, li a:visited (line 157) { text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #003366; } #mainContent li a:active, li a:hover (line 166) { text-decoration: none; color: #99cc66; text-indent: 5px; font-weight: bold; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px; } Colleagues, I seem to be having an issue on a page I am developing, where I am using CSS to position many of my elements. I have a banner at the top, and then have used absolute positioning of a couple of flash movies, a graphic and a javascript menu. I have used Xara Webstyle for creating the JS-based Menu. The problem I am experiencing, is that these are positioned in the order I mentioned, from the top to the middle of the page. I also then have some CSS positioned items below the menu. This menu is a tiered, or flyout menu of sorts, and when it drops down is should overlap the absolutely positioned items in the bottom of the page, but those items are overlapping the menu, I assume, because they are absolutely positioned. What I would like is to make the bottom items "go to the background" so to speak, so the javascripted menus writes over them. Is there some setting I am missing that would allow these bottom elements to be in background, so to speak, so that the menu drops will be on top?? Thanks for your help, in advance. Kork I'm using frames and I want all my anchors to launch in a separate frame. Right now I'm doing: Code: <a href="http://example.com" target="MAIN">example</a> Can I put something in my stylesheet that will automatically launch all links in the "MAIN" frame? Thanks. I want to set a width for a div so that its left hand edge is at the left edge of the viewing window and its right hand edge is at a particular location in a centered layout and retains that width (ie it stretches) when the window is resized. A percent width will not achieve this. Can anyone explain how it can be done? <div type="test"> I am interested in the type attribute. The reason is this... I have a Janus GridEx on my asp.net form and I want to add some css styles to it. There is no ID defined, nor a class of which I can inherit. I can't modify the code for this tag so I was hoping I could use the type attribute to identify this div in my css.... This is the code for the DIV I'm talking about: Code: <div type="4" style="position:relative;padding:0px 0px;width:100%;overflow-x:auto;overflow-y:auto;"> Anyone has any experience with this? Thanks! Hi people, What is the equivalent of this div style attribute in css? <div style="overflow: hidden; position: absolute; left: 0px; top: 0px; width: 500px; height: 300px"> Its the overflow what I'm looking for. -just edited this that I have the solution sorry beginners corner Having a little trouble. I'm creating a horizontal nav menu with a bg image for each li, but can't seem to get the height set for the li in css. Using this code: Code: nl#navBar { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; } nl#navBar li{ list-style-type: none; display: inline; } nl#navBar li a:before { content: url(../images/navbutton_left.gif); } nl#navBar li a:after { content: url(../images/navbutton_right.gif); } nl#navBar li a{ text-decoration: none; background-repeat: repeat-x; background: url(../images/navbutton_bg.gif); } nl#navBar li a:hover{ text-decoration: none; background-repeat: repeat-x; background: url(../images/navbutton_bg_hover.gif); } I have tried several different variations of code putting height attributes and displays as block, but no combination seems to work. The title attribute will display black text in a yellow box on the mouse over of an element. Take this code: Code: <a href='#' title='This should be a different background color or something'>text link</a> I want to have the title attribute display with a different background color, different font color and font size. I was wondering how I might use CSS to get into this attribute and do some editing.

Cheers I'm quite fluent in xhtml, css, and other crap...but I'm not sure why this doesn't work -> the height attribute is set to a percentage, yet it doesn't work...I know its acceptable i checked the css reference. view source on this Validated xhtml strict 1.01 EDIT: I FIGURED IT OUT... I NEEDED TO PUT THIS html, body { height:100% ; width:100% } Hi. I was developing a website . I decided to use float in order to align content on my webpage. Everything worked fine in IE but when I viewed page in NS then linkbar and main area that supposed to be aligned correctly, where collided together. The link to this webpage is: http://www.itcollege.ee/~rbomberg/hagerel/index.php If viewed in NS then you should notice that the links on the left are not aligned properly and main body text is also dislocated. The CSS file used for this website is available at: http://www.itcollege.ee/~rbomberg/hagerel/test.css Thanks for all the help. For most of my webpages, I use a few element templates for body, div, etc. I'm using more positioning in my pages, and so for the sake of nested div's, I want to add some standardized positioning to my template:
Code: div{ padding: 0; margin: 0; border: 0 #000000 solid; /*** added positioning atributes ***/ position: relative; top: 0; left: 0; z-index: 0; } I know that some of this is "standard", but I want to be absolutely sure the browser is going to render my page as I want it. My question is, will/should adding this positioning increase the processing/rendering time of the page (as using table-less design uses a lot of divs)? It's probably a silly thing to worry about, but I'm also interested in what atributes are more processing intensive. Hi I have img tags in my html with border="0". I am replacing the html stylings with CSS and want to know what the equivelant would be? Is it Code: border-width: none; Or does the img tag really need the border="0" in it at all? Thanks in advance!! Can someone tell me why css style settings for links won't effect a mailto: link? Is there anyway to make it happen without individually coding style into each mailto: link?
