CSS - Links Display On A New Line?
Hey guys im updating a site that i originally didnt code, and for some reason any link will have a carrage return or something after it so that the next thing will start on a new line, so if were to put a link in the middle of a paragragh the next word would start on a new line???
what should i be looking for in the css to rectify this. i tried removing all the 'display : block' but that didnt work... thanks Similar TutorialsI was just coding this: and all the links appear on new lines... why is that? ARGH! I cant post links just type this: blumoney. latestdot. net/ plb/ pictures. php without the spaces and enters Been trying to figure out why my links in my navigation bar (id="extra") won't line up horizontally -- they keep stacking vertically. Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks. The important bits are below... Code:

That title is probably a little confusing but it is what's happening. I have an inline list (<li>) that will shift to the right when I hover over links that have been visited. The links that have never been visited do not cause this problem. It's very strange and I'm not sure what's up. The page... http://www.vaska.com/a/ The css... http://www.vaska.com/a/css/c.css To get the menu to appear, hover over the "menu/options" and it will appear. I know for a fact that these issues are not becaused by the javascript in this file...somehow it's a CSS issue. I'm having the problem in Safari and Firefox...I'm not sure about IE/PC and such, but I'm betting the problem is there as well. Thanks for any help...v I want to display two tables on one line keeping the width of the table. In the past whenever I've wanted two things on the same line I've always floated one left and the other right. I've tried doing this here but the tables have a width of 45% and when they get floated its as if thats ignored. Heres a picture to better explain the situation. http://i52.tinypic.com/2ry1vur.jpg Thanks in advance for all your help. hello, I want the right arrow to be displayed on the same line as the slide show.

I recently relaunched our web site and, trying to stay with the times, use CSS as much as possible for layout purposes. The one place I still use a table for layout is in the top navigation bar, which includes a search form. I would like to eliminate the table and use CSS for styling the top navigation bar, but am not sure how. I want the pages to hold up in IE 5.0+, Mozilla, Netscape 6+, Firefox and Safari and to be tolerable in Mac IE 5.x - a tall order but manageable I think. Can this be done? Am I stuck with a layout table here? Any help is appreciated. You can see an example web page at: http://www.cambridgema.gov/~CDD/ The HTML is in the attached file. source: bluewebpages.com/photography/album3/1 i need help setting the thumbnails which have a block display to line up on the same line. i'm using a program called photostack, which is a light-weight photoblog system. when it spits out the code, how would i center the main div containg all thumbnails? i've tried text-align, negative margins(which worked except that the main photo would display ontop of them because the negative margins involved abs positioning) mainly if someone could point me in the right direction on getting block elements on the same line then i'd be set. i can resolve the later issue. thanks, amory EDIT FIXED - need a float: left; Hi, im using different styles for my links on one page. my CSS for some links is not working properly in IE6. i have defined some rules for all the links in my CSS but for some specific links when i try to change the link color and the hover effect of the link, it is not effected. the color of the link remains same as default link. what is the problem. here is my css code. a:link { color:#ff8702; text-decoration: underline; font-weight:bold; } a:visited { color:#ff8702; text-decoration: underline; } a:hover { color:#ff8702; text-decoration:none; } .readmore { font-weight:bold; font-size:14px; width:94px; height:35px; background:url(images/read-more.gif) no-repeat; vertical-align:middle; padding:12px 0 0 13px;} .readmore a {color:#000000; text-decoration: none;} .readmore a:hover {color:#000000; text-decoration: underline;} when i assign the "readmore" class to any text, it does not take effect. Please help. I want to show in a page two different link styles, to achieve this I have created two css files, one for each link style, and I have attached it in the page thus: Code: <html> <head> <title>Link format test</title> <link href="StylesCSS/link1.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> <link href=" StylesCSS/link2.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> </head> <body> Then I have applied the styles thus: Code: <a href="index.aspx" class="letterLink1">Home</a> <a href="forgotten_password.aspx" class="letterLink2">I have forgotten my password</a> And both css files are as follow: link1.css Code:
a:link {
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 12px;
color: #669966;
text-decoration: none;
font-weight: bold;
}
a:hover {
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 12px;
color: #568156;
text-decoration: underline;
font-weight: bold;
}
a:active {
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 12px;
color: #568156;
text-decoration: underline;
font-weight: bold;
}
.letterLink1 {
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 12px;
color: #669966;
text-decoration: none;
font-weight: bold;
}
link2.css Code:
a:link {
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 10px;
color: #669966;
text-decoration: underline;
}
a:hover {
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 10px;
color: #FFCC66;
text-decoration: underline;
}
a:active {
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 10px;
color: #FFCC66;
text-decoration: underline;
}
.letterLink2 {
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 10px;
color: #669966;
text-decoration: underline;
}
But when I load the page, the link1 a:hover and a:active are showed as link2 a:hover and a:active. What is wrong? Thank you, Cesar Hi, I guess this is a fairly easy one to sort out. I have a main menu of 5 links which i want to highlight when you mouse over the area. At the moment I have coded the menu in a table which I know is not so great, but its the only way I can get the background image to display across the whole of the <div> and this only works in FF, in IE6 you have to mouse over the link text itself before the highlighting will appear. I just want to know the "correct" way to code this so that when the mouse hovers over the line the link is on the highlighting will appear. Take a look at www.webwizedezignz. co . uk to see what its like at the moment. Cheers in advance Hello, I've been having trouble with a simple design I have been creating. I was wanting the footer text to display in a straight line, but it's displaying horizontally. Could you please look at my HTML and CSS coding and see if I had made an error: Code: www.wendyhenrichs.com/huy Thanks! Hi, i'm having trouble in my navigation section getting the background color to display behind the links. It works fine in the content section, just not the navigation - why is this? Here is my code - Code: @import url('layout.css');

background-repeat: repeat-y;
background-attachment: scroll;
background: url('images/skyBACK.gif');
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

This is very strange to me any help would be greatly appreciated. I just tested my site with IE6 and it's very broken (although it's valid HTML 4.01 strict according to w3.org). Main problem I am having is the links. I have a left navigation box, and a list of links inside it, the links display is set to 'block'. When the user's cursor is on the same line as the link, I want the whole line to change BG color and be clickable. This works now with FF perfectly. In IE your mouse has to be ON the actual link for the background to change color, and there is space on the left of the link block. Here is an example (not my site): http://rmideas.com/menus/menutest/NavToBar.htm The top right menu works like I want it to in FF, but in IE your cursor has to be on 'home'. How can I get this to work properly in both FF and IE? and I have overlapping problems, some code overlaps in one browser but looks fine in another. I've got two lines of text. Want the spacing the two lines to increase, so I set a line-height. When I do this, not only does it increase space between the two lines, it also increases spacing above the first line (and maybe below the second). How can I increase spacing between the two lines only, without increasing above and below? Thanks! Greetings, I am relatively new to CSS and am using background image bullets. Problem is, in the case of a two line link, the bullet aligns in between the two lines and I need it to align to the top line. Below is the CSS, and attached is a screenshot of the link to better illustrate my predicament. Thanks for any help! li { list-style-type: none; background: url(../images/bullet.gif) no-repeat left; padding: 0 0 0 10px; } Greetings, I have a class called "header" and I am trying to give it a touch of extra space between it and the next line. All of my headers are just a few words and thus on one line. I tried placing "line-height: 1.5em" in my "header" class and it shows up correctly in Dreamweaver but not in IE. My thought is, because it is only a single line, that class value does not kick in because there is no second line for that class. Is there a way to conrol this in CSS or am I going to have to resort to using a....gulp.....spacer? Thanks in advance! Simple question, but i'm trying to create a decent sized space in between my links, and make them white. I can make my links white, but can't seem to change the space inbetween them. HTML Code: div id="bar-links"> <center> <div class="content box1"> <table width="500" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td colspan="4"><img src="images/barlist_01.gif" width="500" height="23" alt=""></td> </tr> <tr> <td background="images/barlist_02.gif" width="20"></td> <td background="images/barlist_03.gif" width="456"> </p> <div id="bar-links"> <h4><a href="#" title="Riley's Pub">Riley's Pub</a> <a href="#" title="Ho Down Bar"style="color: #fff">Ho Down Bar</a> <a href="#" title="Depot Square"style="color: #fff">Depot Square Bar</a> <a href="#" title="Egans Pub"style="color: #fff">Egans Pub</a> </h4> </div> </td> <td background="images/barlist_04.gif" width="24"></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="4"><img src="images/barlist_05.gif" width="500" height="27" alt=""></td> </tr> </table> </div> CSS Code: #bar-links { text-indent:inherit; text-align:left; }
I've been seeing people using ul and li tags to make their menus in css. So I've started trying to do the same, here is an example. But obviously here, the buttons are not displaying inline. All of the styles are within the page code itself. I've got a display: inline style on the li tag, but it's still not working? How can I get this to work or is there any other way to get a ul li menu to display this way? Could someone enlighten me why the page in the following URL functions perfectly in both IE6 and FF and yet, I seem to be totally unable to get the darn thing working locally? I am trying to avoid JavaScript and this looked like a very clean way of hiding and revealing menu items. I don't speak Japanese so I don't understand the text on the page either. http://www.amy.hi-ho.ne.jp/staka/hp/dhtm/s_disp.htm Hi! Is is vicious to display a table as "display: block" to force margin-collapsing? Otherwise there's no margin collapsing with other elements. Thanks |
