If it is more helpful - This is a link to the actual html file to view I am going to turn it into a template with an editable main section (the large blank area to the bottom right. I think my problems are all with the sidebar id - but I could be wrong as this is my first attempt at css and tabless design. Ignore the search part - that is phase 2 so I am not messing with that at this point. Here are the problems I am trying to correct: 1) I want the sidebar column to extend to the bottom of the page container - 10px. Some page containers could be longer than 600px height - but that will be the minimum height of the container. Currently it goes down all the way to the page id border with no white space. I know this is because I put in height 100% - but what I really need is something like 100% - 10px - but that doesn't seem to be an option. The page container has 10 px padding but it doesn't seem to be making a difference. 2) The left side list navigation indentation has some problems. See the side bar here to see what I want it to look like The list navigation part should be indented 20px from the left edge of the sidebar (10px more than the category class). Currently in fox fire they are both 10px from the right edge. In IE they are indented way too much. As always any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks! Similar TutorialsFirst: I have seen: p.classname and just .classname What is the difference between the two if the latter is applied to a paragraph? Also: I have seen classes stack on top of each other like: <p class ="classname" class ="classname2">text</p> <p class = "classname" id = "idname">text</p> So is there a way to use classes with other classes id with other ids or classes and ids together like the above? On this page: http://www.mediamogulsweb.com/. I'm having a few minor issues. 1) In IE7, something is wrong with this code: Quote: #blurbs { background:52% 48% url(plus_design.jpg) no-repeat; width:615px; height:481px; margin:13px 0 10px 0; border:1px solid #000; } You'll see what I mean when you look....the 1px border is only there to illustrate the problem...it should look like it does in IE6 or Mozilla... 2) In IE6, there is some extra padding or something for these styles: Quote: #bot_left_text_box2 { width:78px; height:81px; margin:0; border:1px solid #000; } #bot_right_text_box2 { width:78px; height:81px; margin:10px 0 0 0; border:1px solid #000; } Again, you'll see it when you look... Any help is appreciated...I can;t seem to find the problem, and I'm too tired too stare at it any longer...so maybe one of you can help...thanks. Two issues I could use some help on, if anyone is willing to assist: One: I'm once again finding myself at a loss to correct an odd CSS rendering anomoly that shows up (of course) only in MSIE6 and it's Mac counterpart (but more severely in IE6/Win). Basically, I'm using the negative margins method (described here in an article we probably all know on ALA). This combines neg. margins with Dan Cedarholm's Faux Columns to create a nice two-column layout with a footer that always clears regardless of which column is longer. It could be done fluidly, but this site calls for fixed width @ 760px, so it's in a viewport div. The problem is, I'd like to extend a border {1px solid #eee} between the two columns. I assumed based on my code that I would simply apply a right hand border to the content div, and that (regardless of the non-semantic wrapper div used to keep things kosher with the faux columns) that would draw the necessary line. This seems to have worked fine (with a swap of margin for padding at the bottom of the content div, to keep the area contiguous to the footer). But in IE 6, I noticed a gap at the bottom of the page even with 0 margin. I assumed I was missing somethiing obvious like a whitespace bug for it to work in everything but IE, but alas no -- I can't find the source so I'm hoping one of you pros may do what I can not. Two: Secondly, I'm having endless problems with the "Story Options" <UL>. No matter what I try, I cannot get a consistent alignment of bullet-to-list text accross browsers. Every single one is at least one pixel different. Right now is the closest I can get things to working using background images instead of list-style-image, but frankly I'm near giving up and using a character and just scrapping the custom bullet altogether. Sadly, I may have found a solution earlier but it breaks IE5/Mac which (among other problems) doesn't seem to like background-position definitions, or at least the ones I tried. I sorta need IE5 mac support even though I would otherwise not care, because the office of the content providers for this site is entirely OS9 Mac based. Ick. If anyone knows a solution to this problem off hand though, I would seriously appreciate it before I jump off the roof Here's the code: Click here to see the template. Click here for CSS. Thanks in advance. This really should be the final nail the darn coffin for this project's CSS templates. Then I can get back to the warm snuggle of PHP -- Aiden Just so I don't feel like a moron in front of the pros: I'm totally aware I should be using an inline list with :hover for the navbar, and I'm also aware how much better my unstyled content would look if I used semantic definitions for headlines and such. The reason for the former is deadline and the fact that the current system works on every browser I've tested with - more than I can say about most of this code. The second is because <Hx> spans have an inherited top/bottom margin that extends beyond style, the only way I have found to override being negative margins. Unfortunately, IE6/Win doesn't read these right and screws the whole thing. Thus, I'm using non-semantic proprietary classes for the headlines/subheads, and perfectly OK with that for this project since it works and let's me keep the ledding nice and tight the way the client wants it. Ok If you go to: http://www.zahra-zahra.com/innerPage.html if you hover over the side menu (sub/subcontact)which are supposed to be nested lists.. you will see some alignment issue with the pink and the brown-ish.. also the nested list was moved a bit forward so i added margin:-0.5em; but IE doesnt like it and has moved the li further back.. relevant code: PHP Code: #sideMenu { margin-top:0.2em; float:left; clear:left; width:24%; } #sideMenu ul { float:left; width:100%; list-style:none; margin:0em; padding:0em; } #sideMenu li { clear:left; background-image:url(images/site/backgrounds/sideLi.jpg); padding:0.4em; margin-bottom:0.1em; } #sideMenu ul li ul { margin:-0.5em; padding:0em; margin-top:0.3em; padding-top:0.2em; padding-bottom:0.2em; } #sideMenu ul li ul li { width:100%; background-image:url(images/site/backgrounds/sideLiLi.jpg); } #sideMenu a { text-indent:0em; text-decoration:none; color:#663333; margin-left:0em; font-size:1em; } .nestedList a { text-indent:0em; padding:0.3em; padding-left:3em; } .nestedList a:hover { background-image:url(images/site/backgrounds/sideLiLiHover.jpg); background-position: -0.4em 0em; } HTML PHP Code: <div id="sideMenu"> <ul> <li><a href="">Contact</a> <ul class="nestedList"> <li><a href="">sub</a></li> <li><a href="">SUBcontact</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="">Return</a></li> <li><a href="">News</a></li> <li><a href="">FAQ</a></li> <li><a href="">bout us</a></li> <li><a href="">Home</a></li> </ul> </div> just a side question i have in the above code a nested class.. why cant i do something like .nestedList ul { } i tried that but it didnt work... Hey all, I'm hoping someone can help me! Basically i've been setting up this website (using e107) and the theme I am using isn't exactly what I want, there are a few pages that don't quiet work. Anyway I have tried to modify this and I have just been unsuccessful, I did manage to do a little bit but just reverted back as the chances were it wasn't right!! All I need is to remove 2 areas of the page and make the center piece fill the page. If you think you can help me reply here and ill talk to you either via IM or PM as I will have to give you login details and URLs etc Thanks, Ben Ok, I am having some issues on the width of my body (I think). It displays correctly on normal size screens but on my imac there is dead space to the right. There is also two link buttons that have a picture above and below it and for some reason that makes it not clickable. I have tried the overflow:hidden option and that doesn't seem to do anything. I have attached a pic below so that you can see what I am talking about. Not sure what is going on here but if you have a minute to make some suggestions I would be very grateful! Here is my CSS. Please let me know if you see anything obvious here. body{ margin:auto; padding:0; background:#000 url(images/headBg11.png) repeat; width: 100%; } #b_Head{ width:100%; height:150px; margin:0px; padding:0px; background:url(images/headBg.gif) repeat-x; } #bg_Head{ width:934px; height:315px; margin:0 auto; padding:0px; } #logo{ width:235px; height:53px; margin:75px 0 0 110px; padding:0px; float:left; color: #fff; font-size: 46px; position: absolute; } #logo span{ font-family:Tahoma; font-size:58px; color:#297f50; font-weight:bold; line-height:50px; margin:0px; padding:0px; } #banner{ width:450px; height:156px; margin:20px 0 0 7px; padding:0; float:left; background:url(images/banner.png) no-repeat; position: absolute; color: #fff; } #b_Wrap{ width:934px; margin:auto; padding:0; background:#fff url(images/page.gif) repeat; height: 900px; } #content{ width:100%; margin:0 auto; padding:33px 0 0px 0; } .borderLeft { width:5px; height:862px; padding:0; float:left; background:url(images/bborder.png) repeat-y; } .borderRight { width:5px; height:862px; padding:0; float:right; background:url(images/bborder.png) repeat-y; } #rigtPanel{ width:218px; margin:30px 0 0 0; padding:0 0 0 10px; float:left; margin-top: 40px; } #rigtPanel .services{ width:218px; margin:0px; padding:0px; float:left} #rigtPanel .services ul li a{ width:55px !important; height:16px; margin:25px 0 0 0; /* [disabled]margin-left:5px; */ padding:0px; float:right; font-family:Arial; font-size:10px; color:#000000; line-height:14px; text-align:center; text-decoration:none; border:#bdbcbd solid 1px; background:#FFFFFF; /* [disabled]overflow: hidden; */ } #rigtPanel .services ul li a:hover{ text-decoration:none; /* [disabled]background: #cccccc; */ } #rigtPanel .services ul li .author{ width:130px; height:21px; margin:-25px 0 10px 0; padding:0px 0 0 32px; float:left; font-family:Arial; font-size:11px; color:#343434; line-height:20px; background:url(images/author.jpg) no-repeat 10px 0; } #rigtPanel .borderBottom { width:177px; height:21px; margin:-5px 0 0 0px; padding:5px 0 0 40px; float:left; background:url(images/border.png) no-repeat; } #rigtPanel .borderTop { width:177px; height:21px; margin:-25px 0 0 0px; padding:10px 0 0 40px; float:left; background:url(images/border.png) no-repeat; } #rigtPanel .services ul li .author span{font-weight:bold} Hi Everyone I am having some CSS issues with the rotator in my website in a couple Apple products. iPad 1 3.2.2 and iPhone 4.0.5. I am having trouble fixing it. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas. Please visit the following URL to see the images of the failed Apple products. http://www.webskillsplus.com/apple.html The following is a link to the website page with the issue http://www.discovermassagespa.com/index.html You can see the CSS at the following URLs http://www.discovermassagespa.com/wt-rotator.css http://www.discovermassagespa.com/css/massage.css Thanks in advance for your help. Hi, I'm trying to work a bit with divs Anyway, I got this atm: Code: #container {
margin: 0px auto;
width: 600px;
}
#menu-left {
float:left;
height:auto;
width:100px;
}
#menu-right {
float:right;
height:auto;
width:100px;
}
#content {
float:left;
width:400px;
top: 200px;
}
#article { background-color:#999999;
border:dashed 1px black;
float:none;
width:380px;
height:100px;
margin: 0 10px 0 10px}
So I got a container around all the other divs, 1 div on the left (menu-left), one on the right (menu-right) and inbetween them the (content) div. In the content I got the (article) div, I want to have more of those underneath eachother after a while. Now normally the width of the Article div would equal 400 as well and fit perfectly between menu-left and menu-right. Yet it doesnt fit PERFECTLY inbetween them. If I take 8px margin on the left it fits, how is this possible?? ___ EDIT ___ Without the 1px border it seems to fit, but why doesn't it fit WITH the border? Thanks! I am honestly trying to do this thing with CSS but CSS does not seem rational. I had some nested div elements now I thought that position relative was with respect to the parent. So if I put position: relative; left:100px; top: 8px on the red one it will be close to the top of the parent (the blue one) and 100 px over from the left. Then if I do the green div the same except top: 22px it will be right below the red one. I know divs make a new line but they were skipping a line. So I turned them into spans. now it starts the second one at the right place top to bottom, but left to right it starts where the last one left off. And now here's an even harder question, I guess without using zindex they won't overlay, right? and centering is just out of the question... Code: <div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
</div>
Here is some sample actual code: http://www.colleenweb.com/onetix.html It doesnt have all the normal styles but it shows the problem very clearly. If you look at the code it should be pretty clear what I intended. Please tell me why the position specifications are being ignored. And problems are compounded when you try to print it, it makes the graphic background bigger and cuts it off. If you just print the graphic it is fine. I gave up with the transparent for now because this has to work tomorrow, and just made a hard coded blue one but eventually I'd like to address that too. I need to be able to make these look acceptable both for screen and print. I never had these problems when I did everything with tables. This is why people don't learn CSS. I just spent an hour putting this together and previewing it in IE... then when i go over to my mac and preview in safari.. UGH!!! UGLY!... Then in firefox.. UGLY!.. Any help would be appreciated.

Site url: www.plumstead-mosque.co.uk Problem1: if you have the developer's extension for Firefox turn on the display>information>block size (useful for reference) and you will see that form starts right near where the UL/lists/menu starts and not after the menu which is strange Problem2: when i try adding border to the whole form element the border only appears on the label and not the input & submit button similarly that donate button is also a form but border isnt going around it... problem3: submenu font appears a bit smaller (in IE) problem4: when you hover over a menu link, the link turns a diff color and in FF you can go past the text and the cursor will remain in the "link" mode ie a hand but in IE if you hover past the text although the background color will remain the cursor will revert back to normal non-link mode problem5: if you do the css developer thing again, you will see that for some reason firefox makes items on left side appear to go out of screen ie making it seem as if the width of items is larger then what it seems I am redesigning this site in a css layout, and I've had minimal problems so far, but IE:mac (of course) is doing some weird things. Example One: The header of the search box is stretching to the right, when the googleads box is floated right. Eample Two: The ul in the left side bar is placing the bullets outside of the wrapper and is aligned to the left side of the browser. The rollovers have also been slow in other browsers. These are my two main issues. If there are any other suggestions as to how I could lay this out more efficiently, it would be much appreciated. Thanks! Site CSS I'm getting a headache here. What I'm creating is a very simple web gallery. Yes, wheel being reinvented, please don't tell me I need to use something canned. When an individual image is displayed, the image needs to be centered left-to-right. However, I want to offer a button that shows the EXIF data in a side-pane, and when it appears, the image and EXIF data block need to be centered as an aggregate. The image display and the EXIF retrieval are both done with server-side scripts (the latter being pulled via AJAX so that it does not need to be extracted if it isn't requested by the user). Now, here's the deal: I have this working perfectly using a table-based layout, but all my attempts to get it done using DIVs behave badly. I either get an image div that doesn't move when I activate the EXIF div, or the EXIF div ends up UNDER the image div. It should be really simple... I'm just too stupid to figure it out. CSS always kicks my butt. Well I'm pretty uneducated in CSS, I have just played around with it hours and hours and always figured out what I was trying to do. But right now I am stumped. Please view the following page in FireFox if you have it: http://www.iqdrop.com/newiq/index.php Then in IE You see the Google ad is dropped way down in IE for some reason and overlaps my menu, and the <DIV> containing the word "index.php" is also taller in IE. I'm not sure what is wrong and I've been trying all sorts of things with no luck. Thanks for any help. hello, this is my first post so apologies if i give too much information, but rather than miss something crucial, i thought it best to cover all my bases. i am new to CSS and have been trying to reproduce a design that i created as an image, in CSS for a website layout. i have managed the 'bones' of the website but am having difficulty when i get to the actual content. not being the most technical when it comes to CSS terminology, i have uploaded an image which shows what i want it to look like here a cut down version of the page, including just the area in question is available here XHTML css i validated my xhtml, but the css came up with warnings but didn't say it was invalid. i hope this is OK? in firefox it looks fine, but in IE 6, you can see that the photo of the product is not flush to the left of the bordered div. i'm not sure if i have gone about it the wrong way or if it is IE. a friend suggested that rather than have the 2 divs overlapping, i should just use a background image to create the effect, but being stubborn, i would like to try to fix this way, just for experience. would anyone mind having a look? hopefully i have provided enough info, but apologies if not. just ask and i will do my best to explain. thank you for your time J I'm pretty new to CSS (only just begun). I've been teaching myself using a number of resources, but I realise the best way to learn is to practice. I just don't think I'm doing it right. I want to have the main content of the page floating in the centre of the window, which works in IE but not firefox or opera. I also want san serif fonts, but these also aren't being displayed in Opera or Firefox. Any ideas? Here's the code: Code: /*** TEXT AND TAG STYLES ***/

also, i don't think i'm using classes properly, but I think I just realised that. midgetporn So this site is having a bit of trouble in WinIE 6.0. If you resize the window after you load the page, the dark brown area behind the content sort of gets stuck on the right. I'm wondering if it might have something to do with the javascript I had to do to get IE to recognize fixed backgrounds. Any ideas? Site: http://dev.sabotagemedia.com/firstclass/ CSS: http://dev.sabotagemedia.com/firstclass/_css/style.css I am currently having to deal with a mystery padding at the bottom of each of my im_container tags... everything is set to 0px, and oddly enough... it looks GREAT in IE (ugghh... i can't believe i just said that)... it doesnt however look good in firefox... whats up... here is the XHTML followed by the CSS.. Code: <div class="im_left"> <div class="im_container"> <div class="im_logo"><img src="/images/im_icq.gif" alt="Contact Via ICQ" /></div> <div class="im_info"> 164149536 </div> <div class="clear"></div> </div> <div class="im_container"> <div class="im_logo"><img src="/images/im_aim.gif" alt="Contact Via AIM" /></div> <div class="im_info"> Incomplete Gamer </div> <div class="clear"></div> </div> </div> Code: .im_left {float:left; width:270px;}
.im_container {
margin:0 0 0 30px !important;
border:1px solid #900;
}
.im_container a:link,
.im_container a:visited,
.im_container a:active,
.im_container a:hover {color:#FFF;}
.im_logo {
margin:0px 0 0 0;
float:left;
width:30px; margin:0px; padding:0px;
}
.im_logo img {border:0px; margin:0px; padding:0px;}
.im_info {
font-size:12px;
font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
margin:0 0 0 5px;
text-align:justify;
width:200px;
float:left;
}
.im_title {
text-align:center;
font-weight:bold;
}
Unfortunately I am going to have to get more involved in CSS rather than happily concentrating on PHP development. We have realised that getting our designers to CSS stuff is just costing us time as they lack the experience and don't understand the semantics. Anyway, as such I need to find out a few things I know but don't know if you know what I mean. Where can I find out the official definitions of CSS operators... * html for example..what the * does. class1>class2...what the > does...stuff like that. |
