CSS - Css Styling Help For Text Box Positioning
Hi, I've recently built my first site using the Magento eccomerce paltform.
I'm having a problem with the text box for the item descriptions on the product pages. The problem is that on page load the item description drops about 200px and overlaps outside of the text box area. This only happens in IE. I'm sure this is a CSS stylign issue but i'm not entirely sure what needs to be done or which attribute wil fix it. Any help would be appreciated. I'm not allowed to post urls on this forum as a new user but the website is a UK site called lowpricememory. The url is lowpricememory with dot co dot uk. You will see the problem on any product page. Thanks, Tim Similar TutorialsI set up a class (named "emphasized") to be bold, italic and color #087112. The color is being applied but for some reason the font is not appearing bold or italicized. (See "Introduction to EFT" text.) The bullets (set up in css as id selector "li") are not being styled either (same thing, the color is applied but not the list styling). Since I'm a new user I'm not allowed to put links in my post but you can see the pages he HTML page can be found at tinyurl dot com /da97nb CSS can be found at tinyurl dot com /de9tqe Help! And thank you! Hi, Is it possible to style text on the same line like so.... T est Regards Chad http://www.lockheed-martin.co.uk/css/full_layout_test.html ok if you go there, you will see a text resize functionality, if you decrease the browser size, this text will fall out of the border.. any way to fix that? also I was trying to align the menu to middle but margin:auto isnt working like it did for the body? finally I want to style forms without using floats or br but they are not playing ball.. (well the code I have, I think is poor but it works for them but not for submit button which I would like to be on its own) Code:
form {
width:30%;
}
fieldset, input {
color:green;
border:1px solid green;
}
legend {
margin-left:0.5em;
}
label{
white-space:pre;
margin:0 1em 0em 1em;
}
input {
width:50%;
margin-bottom:1em;
}
input[type="submit"] {
padding:2px;
margin-left:1em;
width:auto;
}
form: Code:
<form action="" method="post">
<fieldset>
<legend>Example of a form</legend>
<label>First Name</label>
<input type="text" name="firstName" size="10"/>
<label>Last Name</label>
<input type="text" name="lastName" size="10"/>
<label>Some options</label>
<input type="checkbox" name=""/> Some
<input type="checkbox" name=""/> other
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit"/>
</form>
PS> if you go to the link and view source, you will see that I have used very few ids and instead used CSS selectors.. any comment on code would also be appreciated.. The reason for this is mainly for me to learn these selectors & work with them.. and this is the reason I have not used float property.. which I am amazed that you could replicate using overflow:hidden and top & left to align elements.. I'm missing something here. I want to change the color of the default value for this text field, without changing the overall color of the input field. For example, the default value of 170 will be gray, but when a user overwrites the data with their own numerical value, it will be black. I know how to change the color of the input field when a user types in data, but is there a way to change the color of the value= ? <input type="text" name="trans1_1" size="6" value="170"/> Any ideas? Seems like a simple task, but can't figure it out. Thanks in advance for the time. Hi There - Just finished the tutorial from List Apart. I've got the tabs working well, but I can't get the text colour to style in browsers (works fine in dreamweaver). I've been at this for so long that I'm sure I'm not seeing something that's obvious to fresh eyes. Could someone please look at my code and tell me where I'm being a bone-head? I've put the rules all over the place and can't seem to get the text-colour to go right. Thanks for your help. Here's the html: Code: <div id="tabnav">
<ul>
<li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="#">News</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Products</a></li>
<li><a href="#">About</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
Here's the CSS: Code: #tabnav {
float:left;
width:100%;
background:#FFFFFF url("tab_background.png")
repeat-x bottom;
line-height:normal;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
text-decoration: none;
font-size: 13pt;
}
#tabnav ul {
margin:0;
padding:10px 10px 0;
list-style:none;
}
#tabnav li {
float:left;
background:url("tab_inactive_right.png")
no-repeat right top;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
#tabnav a {
display:block;
background:url("tab_inactive_left.png")
no-repeat left top;
padding:8px 15px 4px;
}
#tabnav a:link{
color:293356;
text-decoration: none;
}
#tabnav a:hover{
color:596eba;
text-decoration: none;
}
/* Commented Backslash Hack
hides rule from IE5-Mac \*/
#tabnav a {float:none;}
/* End IE5-Mac hack */
#tabnav #current {
background-image:url("tab_active_right.png");
}
#tabnav #current a {
background-image:url("tab_active_left.png");
padding-bottom:5px;
}
Hello all, My second post . I have a div box with text in it. It looks fine in ie, but the text drops when viewed in mozilla. I have highlighted the border for clarity and want the text to remain directly underneath. I have tried adding styles to mainsection, the div in question, and also the p text attribute, with no joy. As with my last problem I am sure the solution is a simple style, but I can't find it. Any help would be much appreciated. thanks Solar. html page: http://darkspeed.atspace.com/Textest.htm CSS link: http://darkspeed.atspace.com/txtstyle.css thanks again. Hi Basically i have positioned some text on my site in the place i need, and it looks fine while the browser is maximised. But when i resize, the text moves to accommodate. Is there anyway i can have the text in the right place, but not move when the browser is resized? Thanks Hi, I am having a problem with positioning of text within a div. The CSS for my div is: #menuItem { background-image: url('../../images/menu_bg_off.jpg'); width: 146px; height: 28px; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: bold; background-repeat: no-repeat; } <div id="menuItem"><img src="images/spacer.gif" width="33" height="1" /><a href="">Home</a></div> The problem lies in getting the text to appear in the middle of the div. I've tried using padding-top: to nudge it down a bit, but that extends the height of the div.. which I don't want to happen. I have a bunch of these lined up vertically (forming a menu) and I don't want any space between them. margin-top: also adds this unwanted space. As you can see I'm using a transparent spacer image to nudge the text horizontally to where I need it to appear, which works. My question is.. how do I position the text vertically to where I want it to appear inside the div? this is the first time im making a CSS website. w3schools.com really is a big help, but i came upon a problem. on the layout, on the upper left, i got my main menu. i positioned some text there with this code in <head> Quote: h1 { position: relative; top: 46px; left: 135px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #FFFFFF; } h2 { position: absolute; top: 63px; left: 135px; font-size: 10px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #FFFFFF; } ( as u can see, i tried "relative" but it doesnt work ) and then typed the links of the menu like this: Quote: <h1><a href="index.html">Home</a></h1> <h2><a href="aboutus.html">About Us</a></h2> ect. but when i rezise the browser or take a different resolution, then the text also moves along. the text doenst stay on its place on the menu. for example, if i make the length of the browser smaller, then the text moves out of the menubox, to the right. i hope u understand this. how can i make sure that the text will always stay on its place, on every browser size/resolution? hey all, i'm trying to figure out how to position text in an h1 tag that uses a background image, without adding extra markup. i just need it 15px from the left of the image, and 10px from the top. here's the css for the h1 tag: Code:
h1 {
height:50px;
width:100%;
background:white url(images/h1_background.gif) no-repeat left;
margin-top:12px;
color:white;
font-size:11pt;
}
and the html is just; Code: <h1>welcome</h1> thanks! Its been a long time now and I am finnaly getting back into website desiging. I am doing a simple coding but I am having a hard time trying to figure out how to do the following. I want to create a table but using only divs. So basically I am going to have a parent div acting as the whole table then sub-div acting as each row, and within those divs there will be more divs acting as each cell. But I can't figure out how to make each cell be right next to each other instead of on the next line. How do I make it look like below: |<div>| |<div>| |<div>| |<div>| |<div>| |<div>| |<div>| |<div>| |<div>| |<div>| |<div>| |<div>| |<div>| |<div>| |<div>| |<div>| Also, what CSS properity do I have to use so that the content of each cell will overlap with all th surrounding cells? By overlap I mean so they will be touching each other. I'm pretty new to CSS so bear with me if this is a silly question. I want to go totally CSS and 0 tables. 1 problem that I've been having with my site is that I have several forms for data entry. These are of course done in 2 column tables, label in the 1st column, text box in the right. The problem I'm having is that I cannot get the text boxes to line up properly using CSS. I am trying a test page simulating a login page. But since the words Username and Password are different lengths, the left edges of the text boxes don't line up evenly. What is the best technique to get CSS to display 2 columns like a 2 column table where the first 'column' contains a text label and the 2nd column has the input boxes aligned nice and neat? My problem is with 2 textfields that I am using css to text attributes, all is well in IE, but in netscape and firefox the letters q,y,p the bottoms get cut off. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. here is a link to the page i am working on http://www.cfwilson.com/365c/index.htm Charles Hi Guys, Basically, I have Text in a content box, all fine and dandy, this content box has a fixed width and an expanding height depending on supplied content. I now need 2 further divs, one of which floats to the right, and positioned at the top of this content div, the other also floats right but needs to be alligned bottom. Ive tried absolutes with content being relative but although this does solve the positioning problem, obviously the content text will not wrap around the divs. ------------| ------------| ------------|_______| --------------------------- ------------------ ---------------------- ---------------------------- ------------------------ -----------| -----------| -----------| -----------|_______________| Basicaally like above (sorry, cant screenshot the project im working on :]) Code: <div style="width:591px; position:relative; z-index:1;"> <div style="width:150px; height:100px; float:right;"> ZZZZZZZZZZZ </div> <div style="width:150px; height:100px; float:right;"> ZZZZZZZZZZZ </div> <div style="width:291px; height:100px; float:left;"> asfasfasgsdgdsdbn gksdjbgvsdb gjkdgkjsdb gkjsdbgksd jb gjksgsd dkj kasfasfasgsdgdsdbn gksdjbgvsdb gjkdgkjsdb gkjsdbgksd jb gjksgsd dkj kasfasfasgsdgdsdbn gksdjbgvsdb gjkdgkjsdb gkjsdbgksd jb gjksgsd dkj k </div> <div class="clear"></div> </div> I'm trying to position some things inside a DIV. Here's the basic layout: What I did was put them in DIVs position them within the "parent" DIV relative to the upper left. Doesn't seem to work, so I'm doing something wrong. Image One is easy, but the text and Image Two I just don't seem to grasping. I've looked at the Floatutorial, I'm not grasping it, or the answer isn't there. Should the text block and Image Two be within a separate DIV? Hello, If you go to http://tombraiders.net/katie/sid/index.html User: letme Pass: in you'll see that the body text is shifted halfway down the page as well as the menu. Anyone know how I can fix this? Also, how can I fix the rollover for the menu? I don't want the rollover coloured square to be so long. Thanks! Hi, Here is the problem I'm having: This: see attached cssprobl.jpg should become: http://www.thephotofactory.nl/csstest/cssprobl-goal.jpg Here's the CSS code I have: Code:

How to avoid that? Thanks in advance, Papermouse PS How do I put an uploaded image in this message? Hi, I have a table cell where I have to place an image and title (centered) by the side of it. I am using the following code but does not work the way I wanted. <table> <tr> <td> <img src="graphics/gifs/spotlight_xlr.gif"> Title </td> </tr> </table> The "Title" text is getting displayed by the side of the image but to the bottom. I want the Text to be centered around the image. Both the IMG and Text should be part of the same TD tag. I know with CSS it is possible. Please help. Thanks, VMRao Hi Guys, Ive not been doing the CSS stuff too long as I used to use tables all the time for this stuff. Im ultimately trying to get 3 news articles for eg on a homepage with a mini image to the left of the text which wraps around it. The text sometimes is not going to be the size of the image so the next article needs to drop to the next line underneath. It isnt though and its listing in a diagonal line instead. Any one got any tips. Code: <div id="m1"> <div class="nw1"> <h2><a href="/">Money test title</a></h2> <p><img src="/includes/img/archive/100x77-0000000001.jpg" width="100" height="77" class="img1" />Latest shinanigans on the money savings scene today are... just gonna pack this out to see if the image does eventually fit in at all which would be nice because it should work! But who knows eh? :D Its just an interesting topic to look into la de dah de dah!</p><br /> </div> <div class="nw1"> <h2><a href="/">Money test title</a></h2> <p>Latest shinanigans on the money savings scene today are...<img src="/includes/img/archive/100x77-0000000001.jpg" width="100" height="77" class="img1" /></p><br /> </div> <div class="nw1"> <h2><a href="/">Money test title</a></h2> <p>Latest shinanigans on the money savings scene today are...<img src="/includes/img/archive/100x77-0000000001.jpg" width="100" height="77" class="img1" /></p><br /> </div> </div> Ive tried a few things like putting div's around each specific article see if i could somehow force it to a new line but it isnt working. The img tags ive moved about. Im using float left on them. Any one any suggestions? Im really stumped and close to hitting the monitor If it helps I could pm the url to you if you think u can help. Thanks guys. Im hoping this is a relatively easy problem as most sites layout like this just I can't get it to do it! hehe! |
