CSS - Float Problem
I usually never have problems with CSS layouts but whatever reason I'm struggling with this one...
I have a container div and inside it I have 4 divs (2 on the left stacked on each other and two on the right stacked on each other). Code: #container {
height: 604px;
width: 920px;
}
#container_left {
height: 604px;
width: 597px;
float: left;
}
#container_right {
height: 604px;
width: 323px;
float: right;
}
#left_top {
background-image:url(images/001.jpg);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
height: 501px;
width: 597px;
}
#left_bot {
width: 597px;
height: 103px;
}
#right_top {
width: 323px;
height: 308px;
background-image:url(images/002.jpg);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
}
#right_bot {
background-image:url(images/003.jpg);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
width: 323px;
height: 296px;
}
all the divs are empty at the moment (just a bg image) except for #left_bot....HTML below... Code: <div id="container">
<div id="conrainter_left">
<div id="left_top"></div>
<div id="left_bot"><a href="#" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('Get Started','','images/start_rollover.jpg',1)"><img src="images/start.jpg" alt="Click here to Get Started" name="Get Started" width="597" height="103" border="0" id="Get Started" /></a>
</div>
</div>
<div id="conrainter_right">
<div id="right_top"></div>
<div id="right_bot"></div>
</div>
</div> <!--end container-->
The results I'm getting...The container left div looks good. The container right div is not to the right of the page, but instead to the left of the page below the left div. Instead of floating it right its pushing down to the next line. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Similar Tutorialssubject isn't too good anyhow.. i have 4 cells __ __ |1 | |2 | --- --- __ __ |3| |4 | --- --- 2 and 4 are said to float right, such that 1 and 3 define the height of the page.. but.. when the contents of 2 go LONGER than the contents of 1, number 4 doesn't float right properly.. instead this happens __ __ |1 | |2 | --- | | --- | | |4| --- --- __ |3| --- do you see that? 4 tries to float right, but since it's called underneath 1, and 2 is extended, floating right relative to the page doesn't make it ACTUALLY float right any thoughts that will render this properly? (namely that cells 1 and 3 will inherit the height of 2 and 4 somehow?) Hey there, I have a problem I have 3 divs that are going to the top of my heading, and the right one just doesnt float into place. http://hookem.no-ip.org/Upload As you can probably see, the top of each box and to the right. This is my code in the CSS. PHP Code: .hr{ background-image: url(right.gif); width: 3px; height: 23px; background-repeat: no-repeat; } And the HTML part... PHP Code: <div class="hl"></div><div class="hm">Hello again</div><div class="hr"></div> I really really would like help please. Thanks for looking and helping! Hookem! Hello! I'm having some problems with IE :-D my site renders fine in Firefox but in IE7 the float containing the content displaces the header, here's a screen shot: First the correct rendering.

Thanks Hi, I wonder if there's anyone out there who can help with an issue I'm having. I think it's something relatively simple, but I've been staring it in the face for too long. A fresh pair of eyes will help. This page displays fine in Firefox, Safari, Opera, Chrome and IE8. The #main2 div loses it's position in IE6 and 7. Any help would be massively appreciated. Anyway I can refer you to the page as a new user? :/ maybe - www dot twistystraws dot com / test dot html Thanks. I have a slight problem that I ran into with a couple div tags. It can be seen at the site in my profile. - I have 2 floats and I have remembered to Code: clear:both; for the footer. However it is still not working. I have also heard about the using of position:absolute may break this, but it is on the wrapper class. Not to sure if that matters, but if it is not there then I am not able to have it look the way it should. Full code is he Code:

I am trying to re-write a forum post box that is fully CSS and XHTML compliant. I have got this working successfully in Safari, Firefox and Opera on the Mac, but it fails on IE6 on the PC. I cannot work out what the problem is. Can anyone help? (URL fixed) http://centerstageproject.com/test/index2.html As you can see that box that contains the post flows to the same height whatever the content. Screen shot from Safari attached. In IE6 though the left content (ie member details) does not begin until the post content is finished on the right side of the box. Hi, Have this web page with a lot of divs in it. I have specified that all divs should be float:left in my css-file so that they will be rendered next to each other. I have noticed that when my browser is smaller than the actual web page some of the divs are rendered below and not to the right. How can I force the browser to still render them to the right. I would like to scroll to the right rather than down. Can anyone help me with this problem? /H Hey, Im using floats to position a few forms/form-elements horizontally. But the last form (the signout button), gets shifted on the next line. Can someone explain me why this happens? This is the code i use: php Code: Original - php Code echo '<div style="float: left;... blabla">'; echo '<form action="'.getRoot().'search_contact.php" name="search" id="search" method="post">'; echo '<div style="float: left; width: 35%; margin: 0%; padding: 0%;">'; echo '<input type="text" style="width: 50%" name="contact_name" value="'.$search_string.'" id="contact_name"> '; echo '<input type="submit" name="search_now" value="Search" id="search_now">'; echo '</div>'; echo '</form>'; echo '<form name="new_contact" id="new_contact" method="post" action="'.getRoot().'new_contact.php">'; echo '<div style="float: left; width: 22%; margin: 0%; padding: 0%; text-align: right;">'; echo '<input type="submit" name="add_contact_now" value="New Contact" id="add_contact_now"> '; echo '</div>'; echo '</form>'; echo '<form name="contact_list" id="contact_list" method="post" action="'.getRoot().'contact_list.php">'; echo '<div style="float: left; width: 22%; margin: 0%; padding: 0%;">'; echo ' <input type="submit" name="view_contact_list" value="Contact List" id="view_contact_list">'; echo '</div>'; echo '</div>'; echo '</form>'; echo '<form name="logout" id="logout" method="post" action="'.getRoot().'logout.php">'; echo '<div style="float: left; width: 21%; margin: 0%; padding: 0%; text-align: right;">'; echo '<input type="submit" name="logout_now" id="logout_now" value="Sign out"> '; echo '</div>'; echo '</form>'; echo '</div>'; echo '<div style="float: left;... blabla">'; thanks in advance for the help! if you can take a look at the code below, you will see that all the subcontents are not aligned right. i am trying to display subcontent1, subcontent2 and subcontent3 in row1. then, repeat it for row2. so it will look like 3 cols X 2 row table. what i am doing wrong? <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>Untitled Document</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <style type="text/css"> #content { margin-left: 200px; border-left: 1px solid gray; margin-right: 200px; border-right: 1px solid gray; padding: 1em; } #subcontent2 {float:left; height:50px; margin:0 0 .2em .5em; background:#eee8aa; border:1px solid black; } #subcontent3 {float:right; height:50px; margin:0 0 .2em 0; background-color:#CCCCCC; border:2px dotted red;} #subcontent1 {margin-left:400px; border:1px solid blue; margin-right:150px; padding:1em; } #subcontent p {margin:0 0 .5em .5em; font-family:Verdana; font-size:11px; background-color:#CCCCCC; border:1px solid black; text-align:center } </style> </head> <body> <div id="content"><h2>Subheading</h2> <p>fg gdhoiuw eiouhe viouwbfu8igdofi goiwehviuh eropihpvoih epfiovhpoefvh fbv iopwehfviu teopiuhrguioh gfdg tgt wg</p> <p>afd dfouighoiweh oiehoiuehoiu iuashfoiuerfiugeroigriugh lirduivh lrehv ioperviuherviuo qouitrhvui tgvwre</p> <p>rg uwtdh guoiseh uisgoiunb oiutruighepguihgptuhg dfhgpeorhv oiuhgoihetoishgoi </p> <p>sdfgdf gwetguh reigqre uyreaiu qeroi er fdgfg thgwrtighuroiu og9hghgtuih wtpghwepipeg ptbsrthb </p> <div id="subcontent2">dfgdghureuererg uiruykerf fgsgs gsgh sdg sfg fdsgg</div> <div id="subcontent1"><p id="st3">zones:</p><select name="selZone" size="10" multiple class="sel1"> <option value="%%">* Select One *</option> <option value="1">Ferrari</option> <option value="2">Lamborghini</option> <option value="4">Porsche</option> <option value="5">Konigssen</option> </select></div> <hr align="right" width="276" id="dV"> <div id="subcontent2">dsfwuy rbefuyerwfy erg</div> <div id="subcontent1"> <textarea name="s" rows="10" cols="10"> fiyrqeyfreuyf uuyqfyu fgg tg sdgsgfdg teg tg tg wgtgtrg rgregfwregfwgwg wtgrtg rtghtrghg trgtrgtrg</textarea></div> <div id="subcontent3">this is subcontent3</div> </div> </body> </html> When you look at http://www.mvcc.edu/cltrl/movies/thecorporation.cfm in IE and FF, you'll immediately notice the difference.

</div>
whats happening is the text next to the image in IE is next to it but in firefox the text is below the image any idea todd http://www.browsercam.com/public.aspx?proj_id=170622 You can see what it's supposed to look like along with the windows 98 version screwed up and the windows 2000 version screwed up. I can't figure out what's causing my navigation div and content divs to not float over. I have a master container or everything and a main div that holds my navigation and content div's to 760px PHP Code: #master{ width:760px; margin:auto; } #main{ float:left; width:100%; padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px; } Can anyone give me any ideas what's causing the mess up? By the way the design works in all other browsers I test with. Hello, I'm new to CSS and I'm in the process of building my first table-less page. It is quite exciting, but I'm having one major problem. For some reason, I cannot get my main content div to float next to my side bar navigation. In the normal write up, it works in IE but not Firefox or Opera. I took just the essential parts of the code to create a test page for this forum, and now it doesn't even work in IE!!! Here is the code: Code:
<html>
<head>
<style TYPE="text/css">
#topNav {
margin: 10px 0px;
border: 1px solid #000;
width: 100%;
}
#sideNav {
margin-right: 10px;
border: 1px solid #000;
width: 150px;
}
#main {
margin: 0;
border: 1px solid #000;
float: left;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="topNav">
Top Nav
</div>
<div id="sideNav">
Side Nav
</div>
<div id="main">
MAIN CONTENT AREA
</div>
</body>
</html>
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! (inline css for purpose of post only) Anyone know how to get the "float2" div to display at the upper right of the "containerDiv" div rather than pushed down to below "Float1"? Looking in firefox, I can't make this happen.Thanks in advance! Code:
<BODY>
<!--- MAIN CONTENT --->
<div id='Float1' style='width:150px; height:150px; float:right; display:block; border:1px solid black;'>
asdf
</div>
<img src='images/productdetails.gif' border='0' style='margin-left:18px; display:block; margin-top:10px;'>
<div id='containerDiv' style='width:560px; border:1px solid black; position:relative; display:block; vertical-align:top;'>
<div id='Float2' style='float:right; border:1px solid black; clear:right;'>
<img src='../thumbs/sku/test.gif' style='display:block; margin-top:2px;'>
</div>
</div>

Hello, I have developed some very simple code. This code is working well on FireFox (and also netscape) and Operan but not well on IE6. The code is very simple. I have a div tag that containes two other div's. One div contains text to be aligned to the left (using float: left) and another div contains a list (ul) to be aligned to the right (using float: right). The following is the code I have so far: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<style>
.leftText {
float: left;
}
.rightText {
float: right;
}

Now I did some testing before posting here. First of all I tried to hack it. What I did is add *float: right; inside the .top ul li {...} element. This naturally was not cought by FireFox and Opera, and thus the website still looked fine on these browsers. However when I tried it on IE6 I had a surprose. The list was alligned to the right, but instead of writing "one two three", it wrote "three two one". I do not know how best to solve it, and be greatfull for any advise. thanks and regards, sim085 I've been working on this project for over a month and for some reason cant get my tic-tac-toe container to float in the middle of the page in IE6. The container that is causing the problem is called "<div id="tic-tac-toe">". It centers perfectly in Firefox and IE7 but stays far off to the right in IE6 no matter what I do. Please help if you can help me figure this out your a genius!! Here is a link to to the site: http://dev.blackstonemedia.net/dfh/products.html Hello, Not so long time ago I had a problem in firefox when i placed float content in another div. Basically the parent div did not want to wrap my float div's. Thanks to Kravvitz I solved this by following the url over here http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=ClearingSpace However today I tried doing the same thing, and I realized that now, my screen is showing fine on FireFox, but not on IE6.0! here I placed some html to show my problem: Code: <html>
<head>
<style>
/* Hides from IE-mac \*/
* html .clearfix {height: 1%;}
.clearfix {display: block;}
/* End hide from IE-mac */
div.myBox{
border: 1px solid red;
display: inline-table;
}
div.myBox:after {
content: ".";
display: block;
height: 0;
font-size: 0;
clear: both;
visibility: hidden;
}
div.dofloat{
float:left;
border: 1px solid green;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="myBox">
<div class="dofloat">
float1
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div class="dofloat">
float2
<br />
<br />
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
If you open this html page in firefox you will notice that a red border is wrapping two green boxes. However opening it in IE6.0 shows a red line in top, and the two green boxes under it. I know that this is because the float objects are not wrapped automatically, however the hack i have placed in the above html solved it for fire fox. What would be the best way to make it work in IE6.0 as well? I did find a hack, that is to place height: 1px; in the div.mybox body: Code: div.myBox{
border: 1px solid red;
display: inline-table;
*heght: 1px;
}
However I am not sure if this is the best way to tackle this problem... thanks for any comments Regards, Sim085 I started a new post on this one because it is something I have just noticed in FireFox, but not in IE6. I have created a new html page with a top, middle and bottom div sections. The middle section contains two other div's, left and right. All these div's I wraped inside another div called container. What I did (with CSS) is set the container with a width of 400px, and a solid red border. I then set the top and bottom with a height of 40px each. I did not set the height of the middle section since that would grow according to its content. The right div I set it as float:right and the left div I set it as float:left. This worked fine but then I decided to set the bottom div as float:left ... and it broke in FireFox In FireFox, the container wraped only around the top div, and the other middle and bttom div remained outside that white container. Here is the code I used: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<style>
body {
margin: 0;
text-align: center;
padding: 10px;
background: #00ff00;
}
.container{
width: 400px;
margin: 0 auto 10px auto;
padding: 0;
text-align: left;
background: #ffffff;
border: 1px solid #d1c7ac;
}
.top {
height: 40px;
}
.middle{
/*
can not put height here,
since the middle section
data changes from page
to page.
*/
}
.left {
float: left;
width: 200px;
}
.right {
float: right;
width: 200px;
}
.bottom {
height: 40px;
float: right;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<div class="top">
Top Section
</div>
<div class="middle">
<div class="left">
Left Section.
</div>
<div class="right">
Right Section.
</div>
</div>
<div class="bottom">
Bottom Section.
</div>
<!-- placed here -->
</div>
</body>
</html>
As I said this problem only apears in FireFox, and in IE6 it does not show. I know I am doing something wrong, mostly because I still do not know all about what a float do. I know it is because of the float thing. because what I did is add an (space) before the end of the container div wraped around the middle, bottom and float as well. I am sorry for posting yet another question on floats. Thanks for any advise and sugestions. regards, sim085 |
