CSS - 2 Column, Auto Margin
Similar TutorialsI'm still fairly new with CSS. I cannot get margin: auto; to work in IE. Working fine in Mozilla. There was a brief bit where I got it to work, but I have no idea what I did, nor how to do it again...LOL(slightly sarcastic laughter). Anyway, it's making me crazy and maybe someone can help me out. I've stripped the code down to my CSS body and area div I've been setting my stuff in. Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>Dude Work Web Page</title>
<style type="text/css" media="screen">
body {
background: #999;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
height: 100%;
}
#area {
background: #FFFAFA; display: table;
width: 776px;
margin: 0 auto;
border: 5px double black;
height: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="area">
What is it that keeps this from having auto margins in IE???
</div> <!-- end area -->
</body>
</html>
Much thanks, James Hi, I have the following code, but the div is not appearing in the center despite me using margin 0 auto. Can anyone suggest a way to centralise the div? PHP Code: left: 0px; bottom: 0px; position:fixed; width: 98%; margin: 0 auto; background: url(../images/drop_bg.png); -moz-border-radius: 10px 10px 0px 0px; -webkit-border-radius: 0px 0px 10px; -khtml-border-radius: 0px 0px 10px; border-radius: 0px 0px 10px; z-index: 1000; Thanks i think there is a problem with margin: 0 auto; for ie6. Can you try these code in your IE? I know it's a bug but i couldn't find the solution. Code: <div style="width:250px; background-color: #DFDFDF; margin: 10px auto; text-align:center; padding: 4px;">hello world</div> do you have an idea? thanks. www.ahmetalpbalkan.com On this page - http://www.mts-diesel.com/index.php, it shows as wanted in FF, but in IE9, the main body is left aligned. I tried declaring margin:0 auto but it will take effect. Any help would be appreciated. Tom First things first, both my HTML and CSS validate. I'm very VERY green with CSS, but because other people don't seem to think so I'm making a website. My trouble is with IE. The website is perfect in Firefox. I have this div: css Code: Original - css Code div.main { background-color: white; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; width: 35em; border-width: .1em; border-color: #aa505f; border-style: solid; text-align: left; } .alignment { text-align: center }
And this address stuff: CSS Code: Original - CSS Code address { background-color: #FFFFFF; margin-right: 5em; width: 15em; border-width: .1em; border-color: #aa505f; border-style: solid; float: right; line-height: 1em }
address {
HTML: HTML Code: Original - HTML Code <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "BLOCKEDURL"> <html> <head> <title> Le Sac Magique </title> <link href="lsmcss.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> </head> <body> <address> Contact XXXXX by mobile at XXXXXXXX, or <a href="mailto:XXXXXXX">email her at THIS BLOCKED EMAIL ADDRESS.</a> </address> <div class="alignment"> <div class="main"> This is some text! </div> </div> </body> </html> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "BLOCKEDURL"> <html> <head> <title> Le Sac Magique </title> <link href="lsmcss.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> </head> <body> <address> Contact XXXXX by mobile at XXXXXXXX, or <a href="mailto:XXXXXXX">email her at THIS BLOCKED EMAIL ADDRESS.</a> </address> <div class="alignment"> <div class="main"> This is some text! </div> </div> </body> </html> In Firefox, it shows as it should a centered box with a white background and maroon border and a right-aligned box of the same description besides its italics. However, in IE the box that should be centered is pushed to the left a bit. It is as if the box is aligned left and has a left margin. I am aware that IE does not support margin:auto, but I have tried as you can see to fix it by using text-align:center and a parent div to no avail. Something tells me that my floated box is the source of this trouble, but I would not know where to start. Can anyone help me? http://www.moridin.moved.in/blog/ That says about it all. Thank you for your time Hi, I have recently changed to using a DIV layout when designing sites. One problem i have noticed is that the margin:0 auto; doesn't work in IE5.5 What can I do to get around this? Many Thanks, Jonathan. I'm trying to get this div to center on teh page all teh way back to IE5. I'm using the box model, but I still can't get this thing to work. Any ideas on how to get it working? http://www.ira-soup.com http://www.browsercam.com/public.aspx?proj_id=296123 Why Oh Why?? Internet Explorer.... *gripe gripe* I have this basic code... Code:
#rightside {
float:right;
width:315px;
}
#rightside_top {
height:6px;
background:url(/images/rightbg_top.gif) no-repeat;
}
#rightside_bottom {
height:800px;
background:url(/images/rightbg_bottom.gif);
}
<div id="rightside">
<div id="rightside_top"></div>
<div id="rightside_bottom"></div>
</div>
It looks great in anything that isn't IE... but IE adds about 10px under the first div (rightside_top), which breaks the image effect i am trying to accomplish anyone know how to efficiently get rid of this gap?? hello i have a div acting as a container for a layout and i'm using the following to center it on the browser window, having a background image and two borders: Code:
#master { position: relative; top: 0;
width: 46em;
margin: 0 auto;
background-image: url(../img/bg/.gif);
border-right: 1px solid #FA933C;
border-left: 1px solid #FA933C;
}
this works great on internet explorer, however, on other browsers it doesn't do so well; on netscape it centers the layer but it doesn't display the background/borders. on firefox it does the same thing. on opera it centers and displays the background, but it leaves a gap between the top margin and the top of the layer, even though the document margins are set to zero. is there a way to fix this? i suppose i could use position: absolute and then figure out a percentage away from the left margin... but this way is a lot better since the browser figures everything out neatly. hope someone can help out. thx in advance! I have a page that has a header, footer, left content box, and right sidebar. I'm using a negative margin on the content container to get the right sidebar to fill the space so I can keep a sensible order within the html code. The right sidebar isn't taking up the negative margin space like it should. It floats right but takes up residence under the content box. It works without negative margins if I put the right sidebar first in the order (before the content) but I shouldn't have to do that. It also works using absolute positioning on the right sidebar but this is going to be a problem for pages that will have content that takes up less space than the sidebar (because of the footer). I have uploaded the page on one of my servers:test page page so you can see it in action.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Hi all! I got a three column div lay-out with a wrapper around these three column divs. At the moment, all columns have a fixed width and are floating to the left. Now I want the center column to auto-resize when I make my browser screen smaller. I already tried "width: auto;" but then it places the center column below the left column in stead of next to it. Does anyone have an idea on how to solve this problem? Thanks! Alrighty, I'm trying to produce a layout similar to that of what is shown in the attached image. Please ignore the image being the rainbox colors, but I had to differentiate sections. I can get the banner/search line to appear properly, but the rest will not. Left menu gets positioned fine, the content does as well (more or less), but the right column is displaced, and shifted down to the very bottom of the window -- far right, though. I can't explain much better than that, so without further ado: CSS: Code: .columns-float{
float : left;
width : 80%;
}
.column-one
{
width : 75%; /* NOTE: This needs to be dynamic! THIS is what I'm
inquiring about. The above problem assumes this attribute
is set to "auto". */
float : right;
}
.column-two
{
width : 25%;
float : left;
}
.column-three{
width : 20%;
float : right;
}
.box-footer{
clear : both;
}
.column-one-content{
margin-left: 1px;
margin-right: 1px;
}
/*Hack below:*/
.box-wrap, .columns-float, .column-one, .column-two, .column-three, h2{
p\osition: relative;
}
(Above was borrowed from here, albeit with modifications.)

Been there already, and it wasn't helpful; the used terminology was too abstruse for me. Any help would be appreciated, and I thank you very much for your time. This is driving me batty. I'm wondering what's the alternative to the "MARGIN: 0px auto;" where I need the -1px for the margin-left and margin-right as oppose to auto for margin-left and margin-right?? Code: MARGIN: 0px auto; Thanks, FletchSOD I've been looking through many, many forums trying to resolve this issue, so please forgive me if there is a solution to this that I've missed. Here's the deal: On some installs of Firefox (4.0), the body is being positioned 28px lower than the top of the screen. I set the <html> tag to have a light blue background to troubleshoot the issue, and now there is a light blue bar across the top of the page, proving that it is the body of the page that is lower than it should be. I thought it was a Firefox "collapsing margin" issue, so I added "margin:0; to almost everything, and it didn't help. I'm trying to do this without having to absolutely position everything. Here's the site: www-dot-myportlandtours-dot-com here's the css: www-dot-myportlandtours-dot-com/wp-content/themes/myportlandtours/style.css Anybody have insight into this? Background info: - I have validated the page and CSS, no problems there - Site is working properly in Firefox and IE, seems to be a margin issue in Safari -This margin issue is not the common Safari bug with a negative margin being applied to a floated element -I am using Safari in a windows environment, I do not have a Mac The problem: -in Safari the top margin on the content either is either not being applied at all or is being interpreted differently -it may be of note that I was having the same issue with IE, but was able to specify an IE specific style sheet for it, I don't believe this is possible in Safari?

Hi! Should I do this? p { margin-top: 2em; margin-bottom: 2em; } or this: p { margin-bottom: 2em; } Same question for headers (h1, h2, etc) Thanks! Heya guys, Hope someone can help me with this one. Been looking around the web but most are suggesting to do what i have already done. I've got this in style.css file: Code: /* SEARCH Bar */
.lb_bl {background: url(/img/lb_bl.gif) 0 100% no-repeat #E5ECEC}
.lb_br {background: url(/img/lb_br.gif) 100% 100% no-repeat}
.lb_tl {background: url(/img/lb_tl.gif) 0 0 no-repeat}
.lb_tr {background: url(/img/lb_tr.gif) 100% 0 no-repeat; padding: 3px}
.clear {font-size: 1px; height: 1px}
.topform {
position: absolute;
right: 5px;
top: 65px;
width: 300px;
font-size: 10px;

input, form {
font-size: 11px;
font-family: myriad, verdana, sans-serif;
margin-bottom: 0px;
margin: 0px; }
/* End of SEARCH Bar */
Which refers to this part of my index.php page: Code: <!-- Top right SEARCH -->

But i am still getting a space below the form in IE (firefox is perfect). What should i do? You can see an example of the page at www.theresortwarehouse.com Thanks in advance to anyone who can help - Gaz Hi all Take a look at this in Firefox and then in IE7: http://www.josh.ch/files/temp/ie7_margin_bug/formulare.html The text input and the textarea fields have a strange margin on the left in IE7 that shouldn't be there. It seems to be "inherited" by the outher paragraph, just change the value in css/general.css on line 29 to see it happen. FF and IE6 behave well, IE7 doesn't. Interestingly, the select field (and all the other fields like radio buttons and checkboxes) don't have this problem. I did a search and found this link: http://www.positioniseverything.net/explorer/floatIndent.html Seems to be something like that, but the display:inline fix didn't help. the only way I see is a minus margin for the text input and textarea fields for IE7 only, but maybe there's a cleaner way? Thanks a lot for help :-) Josh Hi all, I've tried searching around for this issue, but I've not found any help so far and it's driving me nuts. I hope someone here can advise.

I've placed the Country Title in an H2 tag, then beneath that, each anchor is enclosed in a DIV, and is set as a left-floated block. Then I placed a spacer DIV (clear: both) to create a new line, then repeated with H2 and links. This all works fine in Firefox, IE7 and Opera, but of course IE6 is being a pig as usual. The spacer DIV is pushed to sit alongside the bottom of the left column, and I can't figure out how to (or if I can) stop this. I can't add in links properly, so I hope this is acceptable under the rules -- The site in question is: www.swalings .com/swalings/index4.asp and here's a screenshot of IE6 behaviour: www.swalings .com/images/swalings-ie6-troubleshoot.jpg Hopefully that's enough information to go on, please let me know if there's something I missed out. Thanks a lot! Rob |
