CSS - Padding And Browsers

Hi all,

I have several CSS files to look after different browsers, but I use javascript to match the IE css with IE browsers, etc.

Can you only have one CSS file that looks after ALL browsers? So that if the user doesn't have javascript it's not a problem? I've heard of css hacks and css filters being used but I'm not all that familiar.

I need to link to differnt style sheets to a page and i need it so it will use one if the user has IE and a differnt one if the user is using anything else that works properly. Is this posable and if it is please tell me how? and if theres a way of doing it that uses php i would like to use that method.
thanks

Hello,

I've got a question about CSS3.
That are the correct procedures to make my CSS code compatible with all the browsers ? For example, I want that the elements of my website stay identicals on all the browsers.

Thank you in advance !

Hey All:

Its that time again- testing my pages in different browsers. I have browser cam for another 7 hours, this is my snapshot of the page I am testing.

Ok, this is the first time I am testing my code. Any reason why older browsers are not interpreting my CSS correctly? Maybe something I should know about older browsers.

Any feedback is helpful- thanks

Hi,
I have been thinking about this cross browser problem. Is there a list of things that FireFox can do and IE can't (plus other browsers) in CSS.
It would be great if somewhere on the net there would be a list of these things so i could use it as a cross refferance.
.

At the mo i just use trial and error but th\at means spending hours to get designs just right

Thanks

Hi all,

I seem to be stumped on something that is probably simple. At this test site you'll notice the left nav area as well as the text content area.

I am trying to set it up so that both are 6 pixels below the header image. Obviously, then they would be even with each other.

Everything I've tried has come close but never right in both FF & IE. Could someone please give me a hand with this?

Thanks!

Hi All,

Just in the middle of designing a website for my personal hobbies.

I have used alot of CSS to create the layout of the page.

The problem being it looks perfect in Firefox, Opera, Seamonkey etc etc BUT NOT IE!!!

In IE it is all over the place, nothing is where it should be.

I checked my CSS against w3 validator, and it came back with a few errors, so i decided to fix them... it then looked even worse... in ALL BROWSERS! So i decided to go back to how i had it originally.

The site in question is my username.

You can access the css stylesheet file by adding /test.css to the end of the domain name.

Any information, or anyone else had problem like this?

All the best for now,

Mike

I have a three column (25% - 50% - 25%) page layout via CSS which works perfect in IE. But it does not work in Firefox. Here is my CSS code.

#leftColumn {
float:left;
width:25%;
margin: 5px 3px 0px;
padding: 0;
}
* html #leftColumn {
width:25%;
}

#rightColumn {
float:right;
width:25%;
margin: 5px 2px 0px 3px;
padding: 0;
}
* html #rightColumn {
width:25%;
}

#main3Column {
margin:5px 25% 5px 25%;
padding: 0;
/* 50% or auto or no width does not work in IE.
100% here is the remaining of the available after left and right columns */
width:100%;
}

The ID 'main3Column' is for the middle column. Width: 100% works fine in IE as it excludes 25% for left and 25% for right and 100% of whatever remaining for the middle column.

But in Firefox, middle column is taking 100% of the screen width instead of the remaining after left and right columns.

Is it possible to come up with a code which works for both IE and CSS ? Please help.

I have been searching/googling and whilst i have found people saying there is a difference in how browsers (IE, FF etc) display fonts, i have yet to find an answer that works.

I have tried the giving body tag "font-size 100%;" method but it doesnt work... some people have said to use px as disabled people will probably override this with their own stylesheets...

Hello,
With following css for header

Code:

div#header{
	height:75px;
	background-color:#ffffcc;
}

Here goes goes html.
Code:

<div id="header">
  <h3 align = "center">Welcome to <b>Your Space</b></h3>
</div>

What is going wrong here?
Thank you.

Hi all,
Compatibility with different browsers, link one and link looks good in ie but gets overlap in Firefox and too far apart in Opera.
Does anyone know how to make this menu compatible with a least these tree browsers. Any help is greatly appreciated thanks.

Code:

<style type="text/css">
ul { list-style-type: none; margin: 1.0em 0 0 30px; padding: 0; position: relative; overflow: visible; height: auto; }
ul li { height: 1.6em; width: 230px; }
ul li a, ul li a:visited { width: 200px; display: block; color: black; text-decoration: none; background: yellow; margin: 0.1em 0 0 0; text-indent: 10px; padding: 3px;}
ul li a:hover { display: block; background: green; color: black; }
ul li a.currentpage, ul li a.currentpage:visited { background: red; color: black; padding: 3px;}
</style>
<ul>
  <li><a href="menu3.html" class="currentpage">Main page </a></li>
  <li><a href="page2.html">Dummy page 2</a></li>
</ul>

My web site (URL address blocked: See forum rules) is causing me problems with CSS since I have reworked it.
If you look at my web pages in Internet Explorer they look perfect. In Firefox when loading some of the pages the top logo blinks and takes a few seconds to load. In Opera some pages move slightly to the right.
I know the problem is related to the length of the center div but I have no idea how to fix this unless I make the small centers longer.
Also my previous version of this site just used one image. Logo.gif was in the background.
I have put Logo.gif in the header and have used GREEN.jpg as my background now.

I'm in the process of revamping my website and am trying to use css to position things. I've used browsershots to view what the website looks like in different browsers and platforms. All is well with one exception, IE6! Grrr.

Now I'm a total css newbie so what I'm doing wrong is probably painfully obvious to you guys, but I've been beating my head against this for a while now and would appreciate it if someone could take a look over my shoulder and see if they can spot the problem.

If you use IE6 you'll notice that the featured products are listed below the last 'service ad' image instead of at the top of that 'column' even with the first 'serivce ad' image.

Again, any help in diagnosing/fixing this issue is greatly appreciated!

Here's a link to the page:

http://www.decaldepot.net/zencart/index.php

I have a small box displayed at the top of the page for an "anouncment column". Opera and IE show it properly, sort of, and NEtscape/mozilla show it further down the page. I want it to be at the VERY top of the page, IE/Opera show it a few px down and mozilla/netscape show it a good 10+ down. I have tried playing with padding and it made no difference. These browsers are the new versions.

any ideas?

Code:

<div style="position: absolute; left: 617px; top; 0px; width: 147px; height: 30px; background-color: transperant; padding: 0px;">
<h5>text is here</h5>

</div>

Code:

  body {
    color: #000000;
    background-color: #ffffff;
    font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman",
          Times, serif;
