CSS - Padding And Images
Resolved. Shoddy layout from a so called web developer .
========================================= Hi. Could anyone advise me on the following issue: The following URL, links to a page with an image (boat) in the second content column. The image is 200px wide and the column is 235px wide with a left and right padding of 15px. Bluestone development The column is controled by the following style: td.datacolumntwo { padding: 0px 15px 10px 15px; } The issue I have is that the image causes the column padding to kick out. I have used hspace (out of curiosity) settings to no avail. I get the padding levels back only by cutting the width of the image to nearly a quarter. Any advice would be much appreciated. Eddie Similar TutorialsI am trying to get away from tables to get images in a formatted manor. I have a div with a id giving each padding and margin element (left right, top, bottom) that sets them to 0px. How can put a couple of images together (<img src="" /><img src="" />) in a div (or span) without having whitespace between them? - Thanks for the help - K Hi All, I am trying to fix a problem with IE 6. In Firefox everything lines up correctly. in IE6 the images in the gallery on the left side of the page and the full size image have 5px of padding underneath. I cannot get this to disappear no matter what I've tried. Any ideas? Top shots l:andy p:andy Here is some code of the thumbnails.. This will probably look like a mess since I am programming on a huge monitor.. But anyway. Code: <div id="pagebody"> <?php include 'mainmenu.html' ?> <div id="contentpane"> <div id="content_port"> <div id="port_menu"> <span id="gallerymenu1"> <span id="submenu1" class= "submenu" > <a class="portmenu" href="#" id = "portmenulink1" onClick="changeCategory(1);return false;"> --Wedding--</a> </span> <span id="submenu2" class ="submenu"> <a class="portmenu" href="#" id = "portmenulink2" onClick="changeCategory(2);return false;" > --Promotional--</a> </span> </span> </div> <span id="thumb"> <div id="thumb1div" class = "thumb"> <img src="images/blank.gif" title = "1 <?php echo "$title"; ?> 1" alt = "<?php echo "1 $alt"; ?> 2" height = "<?php echo $thumb_height; ?>" onMouseOver="changeMain(1);" width = "<?php echo $thumb_width; ?>" name = "thumb1" id = "thumb1"> <input type="hidden" id="t1" value=""> </div> <div id="thumb2div" class = "thumb"> <img src="images/blank.gif" title = "2 <?php echo "$title"; ?> 2" alt = "2 <?php echo "$alt"; ?> 4" height = "<?php echo $thumb_height; ?>" onMouseOver="changeMain(2);" width = "<?php echo $thumb_width; ?>" name = "thumb2" id = "thumb2"> <input type="hidden" id="t2" value=""> </div> Seems a simple question, but how do I add padding to text within a box but not affect the images? in my columns I have little 'features' but I have a title above each image and some description text below. What's the simplest way to code it so all the text has side padding, but not the image? Hi! How does padding and margin on text and images behave? And on other inline elements? Didn't get it to work in IE6. Thank you Hello, Is there a way to have padding (say 15px) all around a cell, but allow for expections, like having one div element float:left and align far left against cell border while everything else is inset 15px. ie. Code: <style> #menubox { float:left; margin-left:15px; margin-bottom:7px; } .main_cell { padding:15px; } </style> <body> <table width=600 border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0> <tr> <td valign=top class="main_cell"><div id="menubox">table with menu items taht is achored far left against cell wall</div> Some text that wraps around "menubox" but needs to be padded around cell walls.</td> </tr> </table> </body> Thanks, Rey Hey everyone, I am making a design to kill some time, and I have come across a problem. I have a menu at the top which has no top padding unless I give it padding of 87px. I find this very odd, and it happens in every browser( Firefox 2.0.0.3, Opera 9, IE6-7 ); is it a bug in CSS itself or am I doing something wrong? Here is my code, maybe I am missing something. html4strict Code: Original - html4strict Code <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css"> <meta http-equiv="Content-Script-Type" content="text/javascript"> <title></title> <style type="text/css"> body { background-color: #082567; color: #FFFFFF; margin: 0; padding: 0; font-family: verdana,tahoma,"Bitstream Vera Sans",arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px; text-align: justify; } #top-menu { background-image: url( http://secretgeek.net/Gradient.aspx?Direction=H&Length=130&StartColor=082567&EndColor=0C39A1&Format=jpeg ); background-repeat: repeat-x; height: 130px; } #top-menu h1 { float: left; font-weight: bold; letter-spacing: -3px; font-size: 31px; padding: 5px; } #menu { float: right; list-style-type: none; text-align: center; } #menu li { display: inline; } #menu a { background-image: url( http://secretgeek.net/Gradient.aspx?Direction=H&Length=130&StartColor=082567&EndColor=0C39A1&Format=jpeg ); background-repeat: repeat-x; color: #FFFFFF; padding: 50px; } #menu a:hover { background-image: url( http://secretgeek.net/Gradient.aspx?Direction=H&Length=130&StartColor=0C39A1&EndColor=082567&Format=jpeg ); background-repeat: repeat-x; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="top-menu"> <h1>ryon.hunter</h1> <div id="menu"> <ul> <li><a href="">asdf</a></li> <li><a href="">asdf</a></li> <li><a href="">asdf</a></li> <li><a href="">asdf</a></li> <li><a href="">asdf</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </body> </html> <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" I validated it and it validates fine, any suggestions? Hi there, I have 2 main divs.. one which holds a small ammount of content on the right hand side.. like a 'related links' box which is located at the top right of the page. The other div holds the content. It wraps around the top right div, but there is no padding to the right of the content area, so the text goes right the way up to the right hand div. How can I add some padding to the right of this area? I have added padding, but it adds it to the text where it wraps below the top right div. This is the code I am using: PHP Code: #related_links{ width: 165px; height: 237px; background-image: url('images/related_bg.jpg'); background-repeat: no-repeat; float:right; padding-right: 10px; } #related_inside{ padding: 10px; } #content{ padding-right: 10px; } #content_inside{ padding: 10px; } PHP Code: <div id="related_links"><div id="related_inside">right hand text</div></div> <div id="content"> <div id="content_inside" >is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry.

And I was told I should add a bit because my page is a headache to read. I was told: "Basically you want to add more white space between the vertical line and the text" How would I go about doing this? The site Im talking about is: www.ohiocichlids.com Hey everyone, I am working on a new template: http://4xp.net/temp.html The colors are there just so I can see the divs, so don't worry. If you look at the page in IE, it looks fine, with some padding between the green and orange div, and to the right of the orange div. When you look at it in Firefox, there is a bunch of white padding to the top and bottom of both the orange and green divs, and I can't seem to get it to go away. The weird thing is, if I add a 1px border to the orange div, the green div aligns to the top, and the orange background expands to fill in the white area above and below the orange div. Does anyone know how to remove this padding? Thanks! I am noticing that padding changes the width/height of an object. For example, if I have a div element with a width of 100% and padding at 10px, it will actually cause the horizontal scrollbar on the browser to appear because it takes the 100% width into account, plus 20px for the padding on the left and right side. I thought padding was suppose to push elements inward. ??? Any help will be greatly appriciated. I don't know exactly what to call what's going on, but i'm asuming that there is a padding issue with my menu. I have a ul that contains my menu list. The CSS and xhtml are as follows: Code: /* Menu */ li { border: 1px solid #000000; border-bottom: 0px none; display: inline; line-height: 14px; margin: 0px; margin-left: 1px; margin-right: 1px; padding: 0px; padding-left: 3px; padding-right: 3px; } ul#menu { background-image: url(img/menu.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9px; list-style-position: inside; list-style-type: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; background-position: left bottom; vertical-align: text-bottom; } /* End Menu */ <ul id="menu"><li>Menu 1</li><li>Items 2</li> <li>Will 3</li><li>Go 4</li><li>Here 5</li></ul> (the menu is on one line, thanks to IE's whitespace issue, i broke it here for easier readablity.) the problem is: i have it nestled on top of a div, and for some reason the ul has a 1px bit of padding on the bottom. I have searched the forum and may have missed some one posting a resolution for this, but i tried every one ov the voice-family/carrage return fixes i've seen, but none work. to see what i'm talking about if my words are il formed (as they often are) click here. to view the CSS click here. Around this dropdown image? http://199.134.225.62/NW_PORTAL/sliding_menu/sliding_menu.cfm I have padding and margins all set to 0... I'm having some troubles getting my div to appear correctly. WHat I want is for the div to be completely contained by a FLASH movie with no whitespace. In Firefox I'm getting an approximately 5px tall white bar at the top. TWH is the url, the flash movie only appears on the main page. My container div uses a background image with a greenish colored 200px left edge, and then a white edge to fill the rest. I know this is what's coming through, but what baffles me is that even when specifying a background color for my div it's not coming through. Here is some of the code: CSS: Code: #container { width: 760px; height: auto; margin: 0 auto; text-align: center; overflow: auto; background: url('../images/style/container_back.jpg') repeat-y; border-bottom: 20px solid #6e868f; } #lcol { width: 200px; height: 380px; float: left; text-align: left; } #nav { height: auto; background-color: #000000; width: 100%; text-align: center; } #nav ul { list-style: none; padding: 20px 0px; margin: 0px; } #nav ul li { padding: 7px; } #info { height: auto; width: 190px; text-align: center; padding: 5px; font-size: 11px; } #flashcontent { width: 560px; height: 380px; padding: 0; margin: 0; float: right; } HTML -- I've taken the content out so that the structure is more clear. Code: <div id="container"> <div id="header"> <div id="logo"></div> <div id="quote"></div> </div> <div id="lcol"> <div id="nav"></div> <div id="info"></div> </div><!--lcol--> <div id="flashcontent"> FLASH player is required to view portions of this site.<br /><br /> <a href="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" target="_blank"> <img src="images/logos/get_flash_player.gif" alt="FLASH player" height="31" width="88" /></a> </div> <script type="text/javascript"> var so = new SWFObject("slideshow.swf", "gallery", "560", "380", "6", "#6e868f"); so.write("flashcontent"); </script> </div><!-- end container --><br /> For some reason in FF, even though I have the most nested element set to 0px for the right padding, padding is showing up in FF. ** removed ** That white line should be flush against the text of the menu items, like you'll see it is in IE. Looking at Firebug, there's no other styles being applied to this item that would cause it to do what it does. Interestingly enough, if I change the padding using Firebug to anything else, then change it back to 0, it moves the padding back to 0. Here's the HTML: Code: <div id="navBar"> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.radiantsuntherapies.com" id="navBarSelected">Home</a></li> <li><a href="about.php">About Us</a></li> <li><a href="services.php">Services</a></li> <li><a href="practioners.php">Practioners</a></li> <li><a href="appointments.php">Appointments</a></li> <li><a href="shop.php">Shop</a></li> <li><a href="bms.php">Body Mind Spirit</a></li> <li><a href="blog/" id="navBarLast">Blog</a></li> </ul> </div> And here's the CSS: Code: #navBar{ background:url(../images/navBarBackground.png) repeat-x top left; float:left; height:43px; overflow:hidden; width:910px } #navBar ul{ font-family:garamond; font-size:14px; text-transform:uppercase } #navBar ul li { display:block; float:left; } #navBar ul li a:first-letter { font-size:16px } #navBar ul li a{ color:#e4ad43; text-decoration:none; display:block; border-right:1px solid white; padding:11px 0 18px 14px; /* overflow vertical to work w/ all browser no matter how text is rendered. hidden by parent layers */ } #navBarLast{ background-image:none !important } #navBarLeft{ background:url(../images/navBarLeft.png) no-repeat top left; float:left; height:43px; width:5px; } #navBarRight{ background:url(../images/navBarRight.png) no-repeat top right; float:left; height:43px; width:5px } #navBarSelected{ color:#ffffff !important } Thanks! ok im having a no brainer and i cant figure out what i did wrong, can someone take a look at this and tell me how to remove the space below. im posting a link, it has the css text posted on the page with the menu im working on that im having difficulty with. thanks in advance, Trizen www dot cooperativecreditsystems slash Untitled-2 dot html apparently being a new user i cant post links but just add the dots as dots and you should be able to find it. I'm having a real hard time trying to figure out how to fix this css issue. I'm trying to fix what's in the 3rd table content that is the compose new pm message form so that it doesn't have any space between the form and the outer content just like it is on the template that says Form with Alternative Style in the form heading. I can't fix the content class rule because that completely messes up the rest of the page and you can see that if you go back to one of the other two tabs. Template: http://www.kansasoutlawwrestling.com/peach/forms.html My Page JSfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/MtzqR/ I've run into this problem a few times. The padding attribute has spottty support in IE. Same with margin. Has anyone found a workaround? For example, I would like paragraphs and bullet points to have extra space above them. In the past, I've set a style using padding-top to specify this space. However, in IE it yields some bad results. Similarly, I've got some text links which I would like to bump over to the right a few pixels. Padding or margin would sure come in handy. Any other ways to achieve the same result? The site can be viewed he http://oharenoise.org/new/ I am having issues with padding on this newly revised website, specifically in the left column division. For example, I'd like the "Special Information" heading to have larger padding above it & less padding below. No matter what values I enter into the padding attributes, nothing changes. I'm having the same problem with the "Featured Publications" too, further down the page. Heyhey Probably a very simple solution to this, but I just can't find it. Nesting DIVs and adding padding to the parent, so I can position the DIV within. I'm subtracting the amount of padding I am using from the width and height so that everything else around it will fit ok. Works fine in all browsers, apart from IE 5.5, which ignores the padding (thus making the div too small because of the subtracting of width and height from the parent DIV). Sample code: #holdera { background:url(images/header_banner_a.png) no-repeat; width:80px; height:57px; padding-top:25px; padding-left:80px; float:left; } #buttona { width:62px; height:27px; } I could use margins on the inner DIV instead, but that brings up a problem with Netscape. The DIV positions shift because of no padding on the parent. Real pain, anybody have any suggestions? Cheers |
