CSS - Positioning Css Elements Inside Tables
In this sample code, I would like the form to actually be positioned befor the things that follow it in the code, but I just can't figure out how to do this. The document I want to use it on will not be 100% CSS, and maybe even inside a table. How might this be done?
You can see the code in action HERE. Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<style type="text/css">
.input-box
{
color: #26a;
background: #feb;
border: #26a solid 1px
}
#div1, #div2, #div3, #div4
{
padding: 10px;
margin: 0 auto;
overflow: auto;
display: none;
border 1px;
}
fieldset
{
position: absolute;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -100px;
width: 200px;
padding: 10px 10px 10px 10px;
}
search_label
{
width: 4em;
float: left;
text-align: right;
margin: 0 1em 10px 0;
clear: both
font-family: verdana,tahoma,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;
}
</style>

Similar TutorialsHow do i layout elements within a div without effecting everything outside the container div? this has been frustrating me, everything on the page seems to get effected. i want the div (question) and the div (answer) next to each other..... i thought position:relative does this since it changes position from the container div. The below code has the div(answer) below the div(question). I put top:0px; and position:relative assuming they both start at the top of the container div. Code: <div id="adult"> <?php echo "<ul><li>test1</li></ul>"; ?> </div> <div id="qanda"> <?php echo " <div id='questions'> <ul id='questionsul'> <li><font color='#FFFFFF' face='Century Gothic' size='5px'>QUESTION</font><font color='#FFFFFF' face='Arial' size='5px'>?</font></li> </ul> </div> <div id='answers'> <ul id='answersul'> <li><font color='#D99C29' face='Century Gothic' size='5px'><a href='answer.php?id=1&search=$search' style='text-decoration:none' class='Options6'>Answer</a></font></li> </ul> </div> "; ?> </div> <div id="amount""> <?php echo "<ul><li>test3</li></ul>";; ?> </div> <div id="results"> <?php echo "<ul><li>test4</li></ul>"; ?> </div> <div id="contributing"> <?php echo "<ul><li>test5</li></ul>"; ?> </div> <div id="advert"> <?php echo "<ul><li>test6</li></ul>"; ?> </div> </div></div> CSS Code:

Hi there, I would like to know from css veterans when and why are tables needed inside a web layout built mainly by css. If they are at all. Best regards, - Dehumanizer I have a div, which inherits properties from a style sheet. I can't change the style sheet, but I can apply inline properties to the div. How can i make the elements contained in the div have a little space between each other? The equivalent when using a table would the the cellSpacing attribute. thanks Ok, so maybe I don't understand the display attribute quite right. What I'm doing makes sense to me, but it's not working right when displayed. I have a div that is set to display inline (so that I don't have to use floating). Since inline elements can't have height/width attributes, i have another div inside of it, with display set to block. This inner div has height and width attributes. Now, if I place another similar structure (block div inside inline div) in the code, the two outer divs /should/ (in my mind) render side-by-side with the heights and widths of their child div's. When I try it though, it displays everything as block-type. Any ideas? PHP Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>Title</title> <style type="text/css"> img{ border: 0px black solid; height: 200px; } div.outerholder{ display: inline; } div.innerholder{ text-align: center; height: 200px; width: 267px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; display: block; } div.centerme{ text-align: center; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; } </style> </head> <body> <div class="centerme"> <div> <div class="outerholder"> <div class="innerholder" style="margin-right: 5px;"><a href="dir1/PICTURE.JPG"><img src="dir1/PICTURE.JPG" /></a></div> </div> <div class="outerholder"> <div class="innerholder" style="margin-left: 5px;"><a href="dir1/PICTURE.JPG"><img src="dir1/PICTURE.JPG" /></a></div> </div> </div> <div> <div class="outerholder"> <div class="innerholder" style="margin-right: 5px;"><a href="dir1/PICTURE.JPG"><img src="dir1/PICTURE.JPG" /></a></div> </div> <div class="outerholder"> <div class="innerholder" style="margin-left: 5px;"><a href="dir1/PICTURE.JPG"><img src="dir1/PICTURE.JPG" /></a></div> </div> </div> <div> <div class="outerholder"> <div class="innerholder" style="margin-right: 5px;"><a href="dir1/PICTURE.JPG"><img src="dir1/PICTURE.JPG" /></a></div> </div> </div> </body> </html> P.S. It also doesn't center properly in FF, but that's secondary... Well I'm running into just a few difficulties trying to enclose a object inside of another container. The problem is that the container does not repeat the background when I lengthen the boxes within it. Can someone with a excellent CSS eye take a look at this and let me know what I'm doing wrong. I've played with overflow:auto; but the problem is that I need to set the width of the container at 990px, and it doesn't seem to work if I statically set the width. http://www.obelix.ca/templates/index.html I want to know how I could possible control all the elements inside a table that is inside a div with an id. This is possible correct? So if I have: Code:
#header { width: 900px; }
And then something like this: Code: <div id="header"> <table> <tr> <td> </td> </tr> </table> </div> I'd like to then have something like: Code:
#header.table,td {padding-left: 10px;}
Which I am hoping would put a 10px padding on all the td's in the table and nothing else. Is my syntax right? Firstly, I'd like to say that I've been browsing this forum for a while now, as well as sites such as w3schools, and I've found it all to be very helpful. But now I have a situation that I haven't been able to solve on my own. Essentially, I want to make a clear and simple CSS-based layout that will work across browsers and platforms. I use a Mac myself, and it's difficult for me to check for problems with Internet Explorer. The problem I'm currently having concerns layout and positioning. Here's a link to the splash page I'm working on for a student organization: http://individual.utoronto.ca/ghp/fasu2006/ Before I make the full site I want to work out layout troubles I've been having. I got on a PC and the text when viewed with IE did not seem to properly align within the opaque white box I made for it. I've been feeling a little overwhelmed with concepts of absolute vs. relative positioning, unit values such as percents, px, em, and making use of things like padding, margins etc. and I'm hoping I can get some advice. So in one sentence, here is my question: How can I position elements (text, divs, images, anything) on the screen using CSS in an efficient way that will produce a similar result in different browsers? Here is the code that I think is relevant: Code: p {font-size: .75em; font-weight: bold; margin-left: 12em;
margin-top: 8em;}
#content {margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;
margin-right: auto; margin-left: 3em;
width: 800px; padding: 20px;
background: transparent;}
#overlayback {position: absolute; top: 8em;
left: 15em; width: 250px; height: 250px;
z-index: 0;
filter: alpha(opacity=80); opacity: .80;
background: #FFF;}
#overlaytext {position: absolute; top: 3em;
left: 15em; z-index: 1;}
h1 {font-size: 6em; margin-left: .1em;
margin-top: .75em;}
h2 {font-size: 1em; font-weight: normal;
margin-left: 9em; margin-top: -4.5em}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="content"><img src="images/tower.gif" width="297" height="422" alt="tower">
<div id="overlayback"></div>
<div id="overlaytext"><h1>fasu</h1>
<h2>2006-2007</h2>
<p>coming soon</p></div>
</div>
I hope I've been clear and thanks in advance for any advice. It's very much appreciated. I have a header set up as a div. Inside the header are three elements: #logo, #picture and #contact_info. #logo and #picture are images (image tags in the "html") and #contact_info is a div. I want #logo to float to the left (no problem), #picture to float to the right (problem), and #contact_info to be flush against #picture's left side. How might I accomplish this? Nothing is positioning correctly except #logo. the (pertinent) css is: Code: #main {
width: 875px;
background-color: #FFCC77;
border-style: inset;
border: 2px solid #008080;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
#header {
width: 875px;
height: 177px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
background:url("gradient2.jpg") repeat-x;
border: 2px solid #008080;
}
#logo {
width:300px;
height:155px;
float: left;
}
#contact_info {
color: #800080;
font-variant: small-caps;
font-family: sans-serif;
font-weight: 500;
font-size: 14px;
padding-top:0px;
padding-right:10px;
float: right;
}
#picture {
width: 160px;
height: 139;
margin: 10 10 10 10px;
}
The html is: Code: <body>
<div id="header">

Hi guys, could you help me out with following issue: See this Picture for better understanding: http:// picasaweb. google.se/lh/photo/e446yLNWr_eTqkiwPK0-CA?feat=directlink WHat i have is a div container (mainContent) In which i have some text in a Paragraph <P> and in the middle of this <P> i am trying to make a box which will contain a list of links. Have no clue how to achieve this. My idea would be: <div id: mainContent> //text//<div style="???"> //Link//<div style="float:right; DONT Know how to lower vertically??"> Good ideas for where i can find a solution? hey, I have 4 block elements like this: Code: <%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%> <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>Test</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="test.css" /> </head> <body> <div id="banner"> </div> <div id="logo"> <img src="images/logosmall.png"> </div> <div id="registercontent"> </div> <div id="footer"> </div> </body> </html> and the following CSS: #banner { height: 75px; width: 100%; background-image: url(images/bg1.gif); } #logo { position: absolute; top: 30px; left: 34px; z-index: 10; } #registercontent { position: static; width: 600px; margin-left: 50px; margin-top: 50px; margin-bottom: 50px; padding-top: 20px; padding-left: 25px; font-family: verdana; font-size: 12px; border: 1px solid #39ce96; color: #39ce96; background-color: #efefef; } #footer { height: 75px; width: 100%; background-image: url(images/bg1.gif); } now I have found out that when I include the 'logo' block in the page and view the page in browser, the positioning of my 'registercontent' goes haywire (specifically, the block loses its top margin), if I take out the 'logo' block, the 'registercontent' block returns to normal behaviour. Only problem is, I don't know why..!!! help much appreciated. I'm new to css. I learned how to center a layout so it stays in the center of the browser when the browser is resized, but now I am having trouble trying to place elements inside the boxes I create. When I create a box and put it inside my main layout box i give it a position as to where I want it to go, but when I go into the browser and resize the browser the box stays where it is, and doesn't move with the rest of the page. the same happens for the text i put inside boxes. I guess I'm not supposed to assign an absolute value to the boxes, but how else to I get it where I want it? It's driving me crazy! this is my html:<body> <div id="container"> <div class="box"> <h1>Silver City Food Co-op</h1> <p1>520 North Bullard Street - Silver City - New Mexico - 88061 - Phone: 575-388-2343 - Monday-Saturday: 9am-7pm</p1></div> <div class="box1"><p>The Silver City Food Co-op is a member owned full-line grocery store featuring natural, organic, and local foods, everyone can shop the Co-op, anyone can become part owner of the Co-op!</p></div> <div class="box2"><div class="box3"><p2>Food News</p2></div></div> </div> </body> </html> this is my CSS body{background-color: #69916D} h1{color: #FFF; Font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif; font-size: 46px; letter-spacing: 7px; font-weight: normal; margin: 0 0 0 130px} p1{font: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 2px; font-size: 10px; color:#FFF; margins: 0 0 0 30px} p{font: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; margin: 0 0 0 10px} div.box {height: 150px; width:750px; border: 0px solid; border-color: #000; background-color: #166501} div.box1 {height: auto; width: 750px; border: 1px solid black;background-color: #FFF; position: absolute; Top: 200px; z-index:2} div.box2 {height: 500px; width:750px; border: 0px solid; border-color:#000; background-color: #FFF9F6; z-index: 1} div.box3{height:auto; width: 200px; border:1px solid; border-color:#000; background-color: #FFF; position:absolute; top: 300px; left:152px} body { text-align: center; } #container {margin: 0 auto; width: 750px; text-align: left } Thanks for the help!!

But, the form elements are sitting low and not aligning as needed. The input buttons are sitting too high. They sit lot in Firefox on a Mac. On IE 7, the dropdowns sit even lower. I don't know what to do! Any ideas? Jeremy Im having issues positioning a div that contains a background image. The idea is to have the image positioned in the lower right hand corner of the screen. I get it there, but then the problem is that the image floats to the height of the div it contains. i need it to just be in the bottom right hand corner. how can I do this? here is the page, im so embarrased to have to ask this but i swear, the CSS people could not have made this more confusing if they tried. http://www.doublethinkdesigns.com/main.php Hello all. I'm trying to get the form layout to mimic a table like structure so that all the input elements line up. I have the following: Code:

I thought that by setting the width of the labels, it would force the inputs to all line up but apparently this does nothing. Also I did not place the size attributes on the input, this is a form generated by a CMS. Ok, I have a really weird problem (don't you love it when people start like that?). I have four elements absolutely positioned inside of a relatively positioned div. As you probably already guessed, everything renders correctly in FF/Moz, but screws up in IE. In the following code, please ignore any validation mistakes, as the real page does validate xhtml 1.0 strict. Code: <div id="outside">
<div id="inside">
<img id="logo" src="logo.png" />
<img id="banner" src="banner.png" />
<img id="topRightCorner" src="topRightCorner.png" />
<img id="bottomLeftCorner" src="bottomLeftCorner.png" />
</div>
</div>
Code: #outside #inside{
position: relative;
top: 0;
left: 0;
/* positioned parent */
}
#outside #inside #logo{
position: absolute;
top: 50px;
left: 50px;
/* logo */
}
#outside #inside #banner{
position: absolute;
top: 60px;
left: 75px;
}
#outside #inside #topRightCorner{
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 0;
}
#outside #inside #bottomLeftCorner{
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
}
The first three position corectly. "bottomLeftCorner" seems to follow its own path, and aligns its self to the bottom of the "outside" div. If I remember correctly, absolute positioning of an element will position it absolutely (duh) in relation to its nearest positioned parent, which in this case is my "inside" div. Here's where it gets quirky (no pun intended) though. When I change the position attribute from "bottom" to "top", the element will gladly position its self wherever I want it, within the "inside" div. Is the "bottom" attribute causing a problem within IE? Am I trying to reference too many child ID's for IE to handle? Am I missing a rule that says the parent has to have the EXACT same atributes as the child? I assume the answer to all three is no, but I thought I'd give it a shot here anyways. Any ideas? Thanks, all! hi- i'm trying to NOT to use a table to layout my web page but it is difficult to get two divs side by side without one! for example... here is a very simplified page of something i'm working on: http://phil.quietthenloud.net/csstest/test.html everything enclosed in the 1px blue border is the menu. everything enclosed in the 1px red border is the content. both sections are divs that i can't seem to get side by side without using a table as you can see in the html. i tried using "display:inline;" on both sections and that doesn't even come close. it shrinks the div down to the minimum possible. any ideas? thanks in advance!!!

Ok well the boss asked me to do a XHTML/CSS version of the website and get it up to snuff with web standards. Now I've done the coding to get the site to look the same in XHTML as it did before in HTML and tables... but there is one catch. I can't quite get my head around the easiest way to deal with captions underneath pictures. For example look at this page: http://www.zeroonedesign.com/aboutus.html Now in my version I haven't got the picture of the guys, or the "navigating our portfolio" bit. Take a look at my version he http://obelix.ca/zeroone/aboutus.html I was thinking about creating little block divs and positioning them absolute on the page... but that doesn't seem like much of a solution as I could see the stylesheet growing considerably if there was a page with a lot of these pictures with captions. Any reccomendations? How do you guys do captions with pictures? Hi, I have a realy strange problem that I'm hoping someone can shed some light on. I've been building a new site, nice html and css, but seemingly randomly the layout completely breaks in Firefox 3, IE7/8 is always fine. This only occurs in page sections where there is a block level element (heading, div, para etc) inside of an anchor. <a href=""><h2>Some text</h2></a> Using firebug I saw that the html gets duplicated like so: <a href=""></a> <h2><a href="">Some text</a></h2> - notice that in this one the h2 and <a> have switched places! <a href=""></a> and after a bit of experimenting I found that removing the h2 made it work, and that everything's fine as long as a block level element isn't inside the <a>. In the stylesheet the anchor has display:block; Does anyone have any idea why this is happening, and why in FF only? I've been building sites for 3+ years and have never seen this before! Thanks. |
