CSS - Problems With Arranging 2 Divs
Hey I am working on a website and adding a Twitter feed next to a testimonial section. As I am a new member it states I cannot share a link so I'm not sure how I am going to show you the error.
The testimonial div is lowered down in comparison to the Twitter feed div and I'm not sure why. Any suggestions? EDIT: I have added a negative top value, but is this the correct way of doing it? cameronclarkelaw [dot] com / index5 [dot] html Thank you, Mani Similar TutorialsHi there! I'm using this code: CSS: Code:
#content {
margin-top: 75px;
width: 597px;
height: auto;
}
#left {
width: 110px;
height: 497px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
float: left;
}
#right {
width: 485px;
height: 100px;
}
HTML: Code: <div id="content"> <div id="left"> </div> <div id="right"> </div> </div> --------- But the right-div goes under or over the left-div. I've tried clear:both; between the div's, but it didn't help. URL My site lines up fine on Firefox. However, when it loads on IE, my right most part of the page does not align properly. You can see my problem at dicebaseballdotorg. Any ideas or suggestions? Howdy I have a website http://sopadvert.com/ which I am trying to modify after I messed up the old website. Now after creating the theme for the wordpress website, I have made some modifications so I can put a texture below the header ( at the beggining the texture was present only above the header ). It looks fine in Opera, FF, Chrome and Safari, but in IE it is a mess. Here is the code I have added: style.css Code:
#art-main
{
position: relative;
width: 100%;
left: 0;
top: 0px;
}
#teste
{
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
left: 0;
top: 203px;
background-image: url('images/background.png');
background-repeat: vertically;
z-index: -100;
}
#art-page-background-glare
{
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 264px;
left: 0;
top: 0;
}
#art-page-background-glare-image
{
background-image: url('images/Page-BgGlare.png');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
height: 264px;
width: 879px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
header.php Code:
<div id="art-page-background-glare">
<div id="art-page-background-glare-image"></div>
</div>
<div id="art-main">
<div id="teste">
</div>
<div class="art-Sheet">
<div class="art-Sheet-body">
<div class="art-nav">
<ul class="art-menu">
<?php art_menu_items(); ?>
</ul>
</div>
The red thing is what I have added. Can someone help me please? Thank you The main things I can point out a Can't seem to get the logo to over lap. Can't seem to get FF to recognize the margins, but somehow IE can. There are other problems but those are the main two. I need to get this: http:// devbum. com/coded/audven/ to look like this: http:// devbum. com/coded/audven/audven.png Any help is greatly appreciated! I know I'm not supposed to post links but there really is no other way to receive help with this problem otherwise. I have been trying in vain to get div elements on a page to behave how i want them to. I have a list of items, in the middle of which i need to display some tablular information witha picture along side it. This i have managed to acieve fine, but i can't get the next <li> to start below these 2, it starts alongside and the wraps underneath. I have tried everything. Can anyone help? <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <style type="text/css"> <!-- #wrapper{ font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; margin-left: 20px; width: 550px; font-size: 12px; line-height: 22px; letter-spacing: 0.5px; color: #666666; } #topimg { margin: 20px 0; padding-bottom: 20px; border-bottom: 1px dotted #CCCCCC; text-align:left; display:block; } #secondimg { margin: 0 0 0 20px; text-align:left; display:block; } #bodyimg{ padding: 20px 0px 20px 20px; float:left; display:block; } #listtable{ padding-top: 20px; padding-bottom: 20px; float:left; font-size: 10px; letter-spacing: 0.5px; color: #891C46; list-style-type: none; line-height:18px; } #listtable li{ margin: 1px; padding: 1px; } #listtable div { margin: 1px; padding: 1px; background-color: #F7F7F7; } --> </style> <title>Carlton</title> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <div id="topimg"> <img src="/carlton-newsite/img/planandbuy/planandbuy.gif" width="173" height="33"> </div> <div id="secondimg"> <img src="/carlton-newsite/img/planandbuy/thebasics.gif" width="133" height="23"> </div> <ul> <li>Cinema Advertising is available in weekly blocks starting on Fridays.</li> <li>It is possible to buy <em> guaranteed admissions</em> by TV region, <em> follow specific films</em> or <em> nominate individual screens</em>. </li> <li>The minimum time unit available is 5 seconds.

Robin Hi. I am a relative CSS newbie working on a new layout. My intended format is:
A sidebar (a div with no visible border) containing a set of smaller divs.
A main div for the content on the right.
About 35 px of space between the sidebar div and the main div.
Yet, for some reason I am unable to force the sidebar and main div to come together in the center with space between them. Using float: only seems to make them both hug the side of the page. My HTML code is: Code: <div class="sidebar">
<div class="cv">
<font size="3"><b><center>
Current Version Info
</center></b></font>
</div>
<div class="ver">
<center>
Version:
<br/>
<b>0.0.0</b>
</center>
</div>
<div class="rel">
<center>
Released:
<br/>
<b>00/00/00</b>
</center>
</div>
<div class="nav">
</div>
</div>
<div class="main">
<center>
Lorum ipsum
</center>
</div>
The relevant CSS code is: Code: div.sidebar {
width: 202px;
float: left;
border: 0px solid #00CC99;
}
div.cv {
width: 200px;
border: 1px solid #00CC99;
background-color: rgb(33,33,33)
}
div.ver {
width: 99px;
border: 1px solid #00CC99;
float: left;
background-color: rgb(33,33,33)
}
div.rel {
width: 99px;
border: 1px solid #00CC99;
float: right;
background-color: rgb(33,33,33)
}
div.nav {
margin-top: 30px;
width: 200px;
height: 100px;
border: 1px solid #00CC99;
background-color: rgb(33,33,33)
}
div.main {
width: 500px;
border: 1px solid #00CC99;
background-color: rgb(33,33,33);
float: right;
}
In particular, div.main and div.sidebar are the ones giving me trouble. What would you recommend? Edit: And for extra bonus points, can you tell me how to make another div go below everything, no matter how long the sidebar or main div is? Right now anything I add seems to hover behind the main div rather than render below it. Here is the relevant HTML code: <table> <tr> <td> <div style="float:left;"> <div class="middle"><div class="r"><div class="l"> <a id="gridtitle" href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="reload()"></a> </div></div></div> <div style="width: 200px;"> <a href="#" onclick="addheader()"><img border="0" src="tab_new_header.png" alt="Delete this grid"/></a> <a href="#" onclick="addfooter()"><img border="0" srctab_new_footer.png" alt="Delete this grid"/></a> </div> </div> <div style="float:right;"> <a href="#" onclick="javascript:toggleLayer('newgrid');"><img border="0" src="button_add.png" alt="Add a grid"/></a> <a href="#" onclick="deleteGrid()"><img border="0" src="button_delete.png" alt="Delete this grid"/></a> </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <div id="gridbox3" class="gridbox" width="870px" height="600px" style="background-color:white;"></div> </td> </tr> </table> And the relevant CSS code [which just sets the background of the tab]: .l {background: url(../../datadir/client/images/billinggrid/name_sidebg1.png) 0 0 no-repeat; height: 43px;} .r {background: url(../../datadir/client/images/billinggrid/name_sidebg2.png) 100% 0 no-repeat; height: 43px;} .middle {background: url(../../datadir/client/images/billinggrid/name_sidebg.png); height: 43px;} This is the output (i can't post images?) http://i34 [.] tinypic [.] com/4hpqag [.] png The first problem I am having is that the div my gridtitle (CIBC) is in does not set its width automatically to the text width. Instaed, it spans the whole table ... Position-wise, I would like the tab with "CIBC" to be to the far left, the header and footer tabs to be right of "CIBC" but still floating left, and the + and x signs to be floating right, all on the same line. Help? Thanks in advance. Hi, I have spent ages trying to fix this. The problem is that the 'news' box on my site (www.getmooked.com/index.php) is meant to start at the same level as the other title 'welcome'. Whatever I do it doesnt seem to go to the same level. I cannot figure out how to do it without setting a negative margin, but then if the content on the left gets longer, the position of the news box gets lower down the page. Any ideas as to how to fix it? Cheers. The site has been uploaded to www.getmooked.com/index.php.

Example of problem If Image doesnt show below, view it he http://nadesign.pisigmachi.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/example.jpg URL Hello, I'm working on my first website, and so I've been doing a lot of research, but I've reached a problem I can't seem to solve on my own. I have a table and in one of the cells, I am trying to place a centered text with two stacked buttons to the right. I know I could create another table in just this cell, with the text having a row-span of 2, but that seems unnecessarily complicated. Is there an easier and/or more graceful solution using css? Here's what I want it to look like: http://img682. imageshack.us/img682/9208/goaln.png Here's what it currently looks like: http://img706. imageshack.us/img706/4108/currenty.png (Apparently, I am not allowed to post links as a new user. However, while I do not wish to break any forum rules, I feel that these images will help clarify what I am trying to accomplish.) Here's the code I have right now. html4strict Code: Original - html4strict Code <td> <div class="ounum">45</div> <div class="oubut"> <img id="ovr001" class="ou" alt="o" src="graphics/overRg.png" /> <img id="und001" class="ou" alt="u" src="graphics/undrRg.png" /> </div> </td> <td> css Code: Original - css Code div.ounum { float:left; vertical-align:middle; } div.oubut { float:left; display:inline; padding-left:2px; } img.ou { cursor:pointer; }

Hi, Can somebody help me to style elemnts on the page using % as unit of measurement & relative positioning so they'd look like -- - 20% - -- - 80% - +----------+----------+ | Element3 | Element1 | +----------+----------+ ----------- | Element2 | ----------- +----------+ ----------- | Element4 | ----------- +----------+ or even better like -- - 20% - -- - 80% - +----------+----------+ | Element3 | Element2 | +----------+----------+ ----------- | Element1 | ----------- +----------+ ----------- | Element4 | ----------- +----------+ The html can be as simple as Code: <div id="Element1">Element1</div> <div id="Element2">Element2</div> <div id="Element3">Element3</div> <div id="Element4">Element4</div> Hey, I use div's to create my page structure (you can see it on the screenshot) http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/...tructurege3.jpg The green part is the navigation and the blue part the contents of the page. But as you see the colors both dont fill up till the bottom of the document. And if i set: height: 100%; then it will fill up to the bottom, but when the contents gets to big and a scrollbar is needed, then the part that you scroll down is not filled up with the colors anymore. Does anybody know how to fix this? Thanks in advance. Ok, so I've learned to stay away from tables when you don't need them, and I have an instance where this is the case. I have a container div that has a header, content and a footer. On my home page, I have to divs next to each other with the same height and a div below them towards the right. To simplify my problem, look at this example. Code:
<html>
<body>
<div style="float:right">
Hello there!
</div>
<hr>
</body>
</html>
If there's a "float:right" on that div, the hr tag below doesn't get pushed down. But if I use relative positioning and don't use the floats, I can't put the two top divs next to each other. The other option is to use absolute positioning, but again content below doesn't get pushed down correctly. It seems that using "clear:both" works, but it seems weird that this has to be done. For example if I have floating divs in a container, I can get them to stretch out the container like so: Code:
<html>
<body>
<div style="border: 1px solid #000; ">
<div style="float:right">
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
</div>
<div style="clear: both"></div>
</div>
<hr>
</body>
</html>
Am I missing something fundamental here? Is there a better solution? Thanks in advance. Here's the site in Question: http://www.winchps.vic.edu.au It's a standard fixed width floated DIV columns with a wrapper. One thing it does have is a second DIV inside both columns to display the Gradient background over the top of the repeated background. It works perfect in Firefox & IE7 (with a tweak) but IE6 mkes the sidebar nested div drop below the original sidebar DIV click here for a screenshot for those lucky enough not to have IE6. Here's the CSS code for the basic layout: Code:
body {
font-family: 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;
font-size: 12px;
text-align: center;
margin: 0px 0px 60px 0px;
padding:0px;
border: 0;
line-height: 2;
}
#header {
width: 802px;
}
#wrapper {
width: 802px;
margin:0px;
padding: 0px;
text-align: left;
margin: 0 auto;
background: url(images/bodybg.jpg) center repeat-y;
}
#content {
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
}
#maingrad {
background: url(images/winchcontentgrad.jpg) top left repeat-x;
padding: 10px;
}
#main {
width: 589px;
float: right;
background: url(images/winchcontentbg.jpg) repeat;
border-left: solid 1px #000;
border-right: solid 1px #000;
}
#mainstop {
width: 589px;
float: right;
background: url(images/winchcontentbg.jpg) repeat;
border-left: solid 1px #000;
border-right: solid 1px #000;
border-bottom: solid 1px #000;
font-size: 10px;
}
#sidebargrad {
background: url(images/winchsidebargrad.jpg) top left repeat-x;
padding: 10px 5px 0px 10px;
}
#sidebar {
width: 200px;
float: left;
background: url(images/winchsidebg.jpg) repeat;
line-height: 2;
font-size: 14px;
border-left: solid 1px #000;
border-right: solid 1px #000;
}
I obviously need to put a conditional comment in there, same for what I did for the minor IE7 tweak, but I'm struggling to suss out what's causing it, I haven't found the specific issue on any of the regular sites (PIE etc). Anyone got any ideas? Centering DIVs inside other DIVs in Firefox? Can it be done in a straight forward way? Setting the inner DIVs float to none seemed to work for IE but not FF. The Example I've read a bunch about how div's won't stretch to accomidate div's inside of them if they overrun the height/min-height set for the container div. How do I get around this? You can see the skeleton of the site above. It's fine unless you resize the window smaller than the content. |
