Im having problems, I completely coded the layout to the best of my ability, I read up, searched on google for help, and this is what I came up with, I dont see why it wont work perfectly and flawlessly. Problems in Firefox - Please help any if you can, im begging. 1) The Spacer Line is supposed to be about 15px lower, right below the roundness in the navigation. 2) The navigations header and footer images have about a 6px margin below them, causing the text to be positioned low, and the background to expand longer, making it look like crap. 3) Theres a space between the body and footer div's. Things I Just Cant Get It To Do - Please help any, I'm getting so pissed off, I'm about 2 seconds from going back to tables permanently! 1) The background to expand 100%. 2) No font-color attribute valid anywhere? Its invalid in the code, and invalid in the css... so how do I change the font color... thats F'd up! Problems in IE - Not as important, I will fix later. 1) Almost all Firefox Errors 2) The spacer bar and navigation bar are about 20px apart. --- Please no posts to articles or anything, I have read everything, ive looked at sites source to see how they did it, and ive read tutorials on how to code layouts using divs [thats how I figured out the floating menu]. --- Thank you, it would be greatly greatly greatly appreciated if you can even help 1 thing.

Is there a way to stop this? And why doesn't the background for the containing div show up in FF when it does in IE? I had hoped a glass of red wine would help.... I hardly ever use css for thimgs like backgrounds, but I have a freelance client that has alot of interesting ideas about how a good website should look so I'm trying to make him happy. When I have: body { background: url('resources/assets/background.jpg') no-repeat bottom left; } in the extranal css it doesn't work. If I put it into the page it works fine. None of the online css resources I've looked at mention why this should be. I've even tried using the complete http://www.server.com/blah/blah/ address and I get the same results. Does this just not work from an external css, or am I missing something? Thanks y'all. hi im just learning css and im trying some things out and i ran into a problem i cant solve. my background is 4 images that overlap and it looks fine when i load it on the browser. but if i try to add my banner image i cant see the banner but my "background" is still there. can i set a specific order of the pictures some how because i think the background pictures overlap my banner image. heres the code minus the banner image. let me know if theres a code to put the images in the front or the back or whichever order i want. <html> <head> <title>Weblinks Webdesign</title> <style type="text/css"> #background { position:fixed; left:3px; top:3px; width:717px; height:720px; background-image:url(images/background.jpg); background-attachment: scroll; background-repeat: no-repeat; border:0px solid black; // added for clarity } #background1 { position:fixed; left:400px; top:3px; width:717px; height:720px; background-image:url(images/background1.jpg); background-attachment: scroll; background-repeat: no-repeat; border:0px solid black; // added for clarity } #background2 { position:fixed; left:400px; top:300px; width:717px; height:720px; background-image:url(images/background2.jpg); background-attachment: scroll; background-repeat: no-repeat; border:0px solid black; // added for clarity } #background3 { position:fixed; left:3px; top:300px; width:717px; height:720px; background-image:url(images/background3.jpg); background-attachment: scroll; background-repeat: no-repeat; border:0px solid black; // added for clarity } </style> </head> <div id="background2"></div> <div id="background"></div> <div id="background1"></div> <div id="background3"></div> <P style="position:absolute; top:-30px; left:225px; padding: 5px 5px 5px 5px; font-size: xx-large; color: white;">Welcome to Weblinks Webdesign</P> <p STYLE="position:absolute; top:150px; left:225px; font-size: medium; color: black;">Weblinks is currently under construction</p> </body </html> I have recently (as in yesterday) installed Fireworks and Dreamweaver and I have been turning a png into a webpage and I have spent so much time getting the page to how it is now, my problem is that when I add a paragraph <p> into the html so that I can add some text, the default css background stays but does cover the entire page any more. I could be wrong and this could be a html issue (which as I am posting this seems more apparent) but if I remove the <p> the page displays perfectly although obviously no place to add text. I tried grouping them into different <div> and assigning them different ids and trying multiple different css functions to get it working,assigning the background in css but this provided the exact same result so any help would be appreciated (I think this could be more html related so after looking at my files if it is feel free to move it). You will see when you open the html file that there is a white gap under the main buttons but if u remove the <p> from the html it disappears.

Hi everyone, Please take a look at this site: http://174.122.106.156/~johanna/php The layout is fine in FF3.6, Chrome9, IE7 and IE8, but in IE6, the layout is buggered. Can anyone tell me what's wrong and why? Also, what is a good way to debug/troubleshoot layout problems in IE6? Currently, I use IETester to "view" pages in different versions of IE, but I can't poke around with the IE Developer Plugin or FireBug and know exactly what's the offending code. How do you guys find and fix IE6-specific layout issues? Thanks. for some reason my background image is NOT showing up-- i have tried everything that i can think of -- i do have an IMAGE directory on server-- and the image is in the directory -- i am sure it is something stupid that i am not seeing or doing but sure would appreciate a little help-- thanks in advance for help-- i so appreciate it here are links to site and code PAGE CSS I'm setting up my first CSS page and am having a problem I do not understand. I set up my CSS page "test.css" like this:<STYLE TYPE="text/css"> BODY {background-color: #C4C4C4} H1 {font-family: serif; font-style: italic; font-weight: 900; font-size: xx-large; color : #CC3300} H2 {font-family: Fantasy; font-style: normal; font-weight: 700; font-size: large; color : #666699} P {font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-size: x-small; color : #993366} B {background-color: #FFFFFF; font-size: medium} </STYLE> If I copy this code directly into my <HEAD> section, it all works as expected, but when I replace this with a <LINK REL="test.css"> statement, the background and bold styles do not work while all the rest work the same. Any ideas??? Joel I have a problem that I just cannot figure out. Scenario I want to have my site have 2 background images, one for the actual html (THE WHOLE BROWSER WINDOW) which I created an image 20 pixels wide x 2500 high, so it accounts for most used screen resoltuions. Then I need to have a second image within the pagediv (container) ( think that is correct place to have it) that fills the width of the actual page, I have my page set for 940 pixels wide. Now I can acheive this fine by placing the second image in the css style sheet for my page container. But the problem that happens is the page goes beyond the window height, and when you scroll down at the point of the end of your window, the background image is cropped off. It seems that it is finishing at the end of my window. How can I stop this so that it is the actual lenght of the window with teh scroll. A link to the page where if you scroll it cuts off the lilac colour: http://www.acklamflooringservices.co.uk/development/index.html The css code for my html/body and page div. Code: html { height:100% } body { margin: 0px; background-color: #CCCCFF; background-image: url(inc/grnd.gif); background-repeat: repeat-x; height: 100% } #PageDiv { position:relative; width: 940px; margin:0px auto; background-image: url(inc/grnd2.gif); background-repeat: repeat-x; height: 100% } ok i tried using this script to make a background on my site translucent, the problem is that it only works in firefox, not also in IE like its stated, any ideas? Thanks for viewing my post. Here is the site I am working with: http://www.flattrackillustrated.com/dev/ I am having two problems: 1) If you shrink your browser too far in on the left, the floating right image goes over everything. I need to MAX left side margin to be about 600px, but with float on, the margin-left doesn't work! Is there a way to tell this image to float, but stop at a certain point? 2) I want the background image I have on the left nav side to continue all the way to the bottom of the page, however, since I already am using a background image for the top, I can't seem to do a horizontal and vertical of two different images. Is there a way to make this happen? Thanks! Hello, I am trying to automatically make my height of the website larger as more text is put in. It works fine with my center body div as it gets larger as i type more text into the site.

So how can i fix it so it sticks to with in first boundary edges of the first line like in fire fox. to see example check the opticsblog.com Below is what I have. Displays fine in FF.

I have a div with a background image, repeat-y. Both IE and Firefox put the background image in place, both repeat correctly. The problem is, IE puts the background image on top of the text!!! Background images don't get z-indexes, do they? Nothing is absolutely positioned, either. MPEDrummer [edit] On further experimentation, it seems if the div with the BG image is position: relative, then it screws up IE's idea of what a background image implies [/edit] |
