CSS - Z-index With Relative No Worky?
hey, anyone know a fix for this?
http://members.shaw.ca/suffeks/dropdown2.html when the box is showing i dont want the text under it to flow down, meaning i want the box to hover above everything, but it doesnt work with relative positioning and i need it to be relative to that image, is there another way? thanks Similar TutorialsFirst this seems like a common problem but I couldn't find an answer. I did look, maybe I didn't use the right search terms but I did look. So I have always wanted to do this but could never figure out a way to do it. I'd like to have relative positioned divs overlap each other and not push the rest of the layout around. Pretty much the exact same way absolute works, but just position relatively. Okay I learned html/css about two years ago, and haven't really used it much since. but I'm trying to get back into it and have run into a problem with my design. Basically what I have is a DIV tag in the index that is used to center everything on the page, and provide a border. Basically what I wanted to do was add buttons that I made in photo shop and a banner to every page I'm making, so I put them in a SSI file. That works just fine, but what I'm trying to do is make them positioned relatively positioned to the DIV in the index but still have them in the SSI file, but every time I try to add the styles to either my SSI file, style sheet for the index page, or right to the main index it wont position them inside the div. Sorry if that really didn't make sense. If you need an example take a look at the texts from last night home page (sorry it wont let me include a url) and I'm trying to get it kinda like that but with the buttons along the top of that centered outlined portion, and the banner above that. I'm really stumped here, ladies and gentlemen, so if anyone has any idea how I can get this working that would be amazingly helpful. And if I missed anything you need to know just let me know, its pretty late and I can't really think straight right now, haha Thanks in advance. I am trying to create an image that stays in one place no matter how large the window is. This seems to work great in FF but when i open it in IE the image is not where i positioned it! Has anyone ever seen this? Thanks. Code:
#apDiv4 {
position:relative;
left:370px;
top:328px;
width:154px;
height:130px;
z-index:1;
clip: rect(auto,auto,auto,0px);
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
I am trying to learn CSS Positioning in an effort to move away from table-based layout. I use some pretty complicated layouts and I am a big fan of the "stretch" effect for my site headers. As my first project, I am converting a site that uses a stretch header, and in table layout, used to be divided into 5 columns. I have managed to re-create the header almost as good as the original with just 3 divs, using absolute positioning, z-index, and a background image. Then I used relative positioning to create the div for the main content, and I was planning to do another relative-positioned div for the footer. I feel that I'm very close but could use a little help to get over the hump. I have two main problems: 1. When you resize the window horizontally below about 850px, the images in the header start to overlap. I would like them to "bump" each other and have a scrollbar appear. I've tried to fix this using the min-width property in various divs, and I tried to use a wrapper div, but nothing seemed to work very well. This is something I can live with, but any tips would be appreciated. 2. Relative positioning seems to work fine for the main content div (#middlebox in my .css). However, I did the footer div in the same manner, and it only works in Firefox, not IE. If I could get it to work in both Fx and IE I'd be happy - I don't care about any other browsers. 3. Any other tips and tricks that would make it cleaner or better, etc. would be appreciated. Remember I am a n00b so go slow. Original site (tables): http://www.gpleague.com New test site (css): http://www.gpleague.com/cssp.htm Css file: http://www.gpleague.com/csstest.css I'm trying to create these two elements that are 100% of their parent element minus the height of anything above or below them. For example: Code: <html>
<head>
<style type = "text/css">
body
{
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
height: 100%;
color: #FFFFFF;
background-color: #636E90;
}
div.everything
{
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
width: 750px;
height: 100%;
background-color: #4A61A8;
}
.top
{
background-color: red;
height: 120px;
}
.left
{
float: left;
margin-left: 0px;
width: 125px;
height: 100%;
background-color: #000000;
color: #FFFFFF;
}
.right
{
float: right;
width: 125;
height: 100%;
margin-right: 0px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class = "everything">
<div class = "top">Top</div>
<div class = "left">Left</div>
<div class = "right">Right</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
The problem is that the "left" and "right" elements extend beyond the bottom of "everything," and more precisely they're extending the height of "top" off the bottom of "everything." That probably read poorly. The "left" and "right" elements are doing what they're supposed to do in that they are 100% of the parent element "everything." The problem is that this height isn't derived as being height of "everything" - height of "top", but instead it's just the absolute height of "everything." I've been trying to figure out how to make their height 100% of their parent element after other elements, such as "top", are placed inside the same parent element. i want to place an image relative to the top left of an element. is that possible in css? i've been looking everywhere, but i can't find anything about having two properties in one element. Hi, Code can be found below and output as it is currently @ http://www.generating-sets.com/index.new.php Anyway, I have the box with the id of 'newsbar'. My problem is i want this box in the following posistion: It should sit on the bottom footer bar and be in between the two sidebars. The code below makes it overlap the two sidebars. So how could i make the posistion relative to the two side bars so it nests in the middle? All this CSS is doing my head in, but for glory without tables! lol Charlie PHP Code: h1 {font-size: 1.4em; font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: left;} h2 {font-size: 1.3em; font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: left;} h3 {font-size: 1.2em; font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: left;} h4 {font-size: 1.1em; font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: left;} h5 {font-size: 1em; font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: left;} a:link {color: #ffffff; text-decoration: none;} a:hover {color: #dedbcb; text-decoration: underline;} a:visited { color: #ffffff; text-decoration: none;} body {margin: 0; padding: 0; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: .7em; line-height: 1.4em} div#header {padding: 2%; text-align: center; background-color: #0e2e3b; color: #ffffff; margin-bottom: 2px; border-bottom: solid #ffffff 1px} div#navbar {padding: 0%; text-align: center; background-color: #0e2e3b; color: #ffffff; margin-bottom: 0px; border-bottom: solid #ffffff 1px} div#newsbar {padding: 1%; text-align: center; background-color: #0e2e3b; color: #ffffff; margin-bottom: 0px; border: 2px #ffffff solid; position: relative;} div#footer {padding: 0%; text-align: center; color: #ffffff; clear: both; background-color: #0e2e3b; border-top: solid #ffffff 1px} div#maincontent {padding: 2%; text-align: justify; margin-left: 150px; background-color: #0e2e3b; color: #ffffff; margin-bottom: 2px; border-right: solid #ffffff 1px; border-left: solid #ffffff 1px} div#leftcolumn {padding: 2%; float: left; text-align: right; background-color: #0e2e3b; color: #ffffff; width: 150px;} div#rightcolumn {padding: 2%; float: right; text-align: right; background-color: #0e2e3b; color: #ffffff; width: 10px;} Im working on a project that required some css that I'm not used to using to pull off an effect. here is the url http://www.staging.crea8te.com/ftea I'm having one issue: Issue: the basic structure is <div1>position: relative <subdiv></div>position:absolute <subdiv></div>position:absolute </div> <div2> </div> <div3 </div> I'm not a pro at using positioning by any means with something like this and I don't understand why div2 is sitting at the top instead of at the bottom of div1. div 2 and 3 display correctly .. just arent showing up at the bottom of div1 i can paste the html and css if necessary it is just kind of a lot and didnt want to have a huge post.... any ideas? Hi! I can not solve one problem. As You can see here bezlica.ru/joomla/ , I need to have image "contacts" at the bottom of the grave. Currently, it is relative to top and works fine on different resolutions. But, if content needs to be expanded like this bezlica.ru/joomla/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=12&Itemid=9, images drops down from the grave to bottom. Maybe there is a way to make it relative to the bottom of the screen, or some other solution? It needs to stay fixed where it is on different resolutions, that is why it is so hard for me! Any help will be appreciated. Regards, Konstantin. Hi, I'm following a tutorial and I would like to understand the position functioning. I have a box container and some elements in.

I understand that the first element has like a reference the container box. I would sincerely glad if you can help me to understand the relative positioning. Thanks in advance. PS: I'm using firefox and here is the code: artefact89.free.fr/relative.html (without www) In the following code i need *Signup* to align just to the right of *Login*.

Okay I have a big problem and I don't know what is happening and it's really really bugging me. I have some extra space at the top of my page, it's about 10 lines in height. the items below the space are made up of two classes. They are .source and .quote. I tried using position:relative so that they move up but I have a problem. I tried Code: position:relative;bottom:7em; but that just amde them disapear leaving just their space. Also the .source iems are missing already and I don't know how to make them apear. I'm not hiding them at all at any point. http://142.177.157.241:8080/bikers/ the automatic parse URLs options doens't work even when it's used. I am trying to have div mian, lightback, and darkback extend vertically to accommodate all cnav and content items. Obviously it is not working, but I cannot seem to spot my mistake.

I'm having an issue using position: relative in IE6. Basically I'm doing this: Code:
<style>
.class1 {
width: 900px;
padding: 0px;
margin: 0 auto 0 auto;
}
.floatimg {
position: relative;
top: -200px;
left: 0px;
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
}
</style>
<div class="class1">
<img class="floatimg" src="foo.gif" />
<p>Some text.</p>
</div>
So, basically I'm trying to move the image up a bit in the div. This works in the latest firefox and IE7, but in IE6 the image moves up, but the text does not. It stays as if the image had not been moved and this leaves a big gap. I have a div block which contains links on the left, it is using absolute positioning, I want to have the contents div block on the right, I want it 20 pixels away from the right border and 20 pixels away from the left div block, so if I resize my left div block, my right div block is always 20 pixels ahead of it. The code is included below: Code: <div style="position:absolute; top:20; left:20; width:200; height:200; z-index:1; padding:3px; border: #0000FF 1px solid; background-color:#FFFFFF;"> <div align="left">- <a href="#1">News</a></div> <div align="left">- <a href="#3">FAQ</a></div> <div align="left">- <a href="#2">ABC</a></div> <div align="left">- <a href="#6">Forums</a></div> <div align="left">- <a href="#7">Contact</a></div> </div> <div style="position:absolute; top:20; left:235; right:20; z-index:1; padding:3px; border: #0000FF 1px solid; background-color:#FFFFFF;"> <div align="left">Caption</div> <div align="left">bla bla bla This is the right side. </div> </div> Hi, I'm not sure if this is possible or not, but I can't get it to work accurately, and I wondered if anyone could give me some help. I would like to position a layer at an absolute position (T:128 L:253) which is no problem, but then I would like that layer to have a relative width from that fixed point, expanding/contracting to whatever size the browser is. I've tried several different things, but can't seem to get this particular setup. If I set the width of the layer to 100%, the layer positions itself correctly on the page, but pushes beyond the right hand side of the browser causing a horizontal scroll. Has anyone done this before? Am I missing something critical? or is this impossible to do with layers/css Thank you! Hello Can anybody explain me the difference between the absolute and the relative positioning methods? If i use nested <span> elements in a table row which one is suitable? And also what the "Z-index" property tells us? I am so confused with these terms nowadays.And waiting your help. Thank You Very Much... Hi, I have the following code: PHP Code: <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" border="0"> <tr> <td valign="top"> <span style="position: relative; top: 80px; left: 10px;"><img src="images/sold.gif" alt="" border="0"></span> <img src="upload/mainimage.jpg>" alt="" border="0"> </td> </tr></table> The span and sold.gif image are pushing the main image down in the table, so there's a big piece of whitespace above it. Not sure what I'm doing wrong here.. is there some special trick I should know about using relative positioning? |
