CSS - Css Properties For *only* A Specific Appearance Of A Tag.

I'm sure all of you have stumbled onto this at some point if you use Macromedia Dreamweaver.

You're working on a CSS-driven layout and it looks perfect in multiple web browsers, but in the actual Dreamweaver design edit mode the page appears garbled and elements are out of place or you can't even see them. While it's not really a problem for you to update and work with the site, it would certainly be difficult for someone not familiar with it to change content and make updates.

Does anyone know of a plug-in that would resolve this problem?

Or perhaps does someone know what attributes or elements most often cause the problem in Dreamweaver?

hi friends...

please check it in new mozila browser....even in the old mozila,it is showing correctly but for new mozila banner image width is reduced to almost its half length while image is 1400 wide.

please help me....
thanks for any help in advance

I'm trying to write a function that will resize a few <div>s on my page when it loads. Before I got too far, I wrote a simple function to alert the current height of each <div> to be resized. It looks like this:

Code:

function resizeDivs()
{

	var saidDivs = new Array("cBodyMid", "cLeftPane", "cLeftPanelData", "cRightPaneData");
	for(i=0;i<saidDivs.length;i++)
	{
		
		var el = document.getElementById(saidDivs[i]);
		curElHeight = el.style.height;
		alert(curElHeight);
	}
}

All I get is 4 empty alert boxes.

All of the styles are defined in an external style sheet a la:

Code:

#myDiv {
     height: 25px;
}

and they are all assigned to <div> tags a la:

Code:

<div id="myDiv">here's my div</div>

However, if I create a div with the height specified as an inline style, it works.

I've got to be missing something really simple here. Anyone know how to get that height property?

You know how you can modify Mozilla css with properties like

css Code:
Original - css Code -moz-border-radius: 4px 4px 4px 4px; -moz-border-bottom-colors: ThreeDDarkShadow ThreeDShadow transparent; -moz-border-top-colors: ThreeDDarkShadow ThreeDShadow transparent; -moz-border-right-colors: ThreeDDarkShadow ThreeDShadow transparent; -moz-border-left-colors: ThreeDDarkShadow ThreeDShadow transparent;

  

 -moz-border-radius: 4px 4px 4px 4px;


 -moz-border-bottom-colors: ThreeDDarkShadow ThreeDShadow transparent;


 -moz-border-top-colors: ThreeDDarkShadow ThreeDShadow transparent;


 -moz-border-right-colors: ThreeDDarkShadow ThreeDShadow transparent;


 -moz-border-left-colors: ThreeDDarkShadow ThreeDShadow transparent; 

Is it possible to get something like this to work with IE? See on F/F the box is rounded.. but on IE its just a complete square ( duh that's because I'm modding Mozilla css properties ).

I see that document.getElementById('foo').style.width is a valid property, but yet I see documentation which accesses the style's properties as an array element, example: document.getElementById('foo').style['width']. Are both equivalent? What would be the property equivalent for 'text-align'??? document.getElementById('foo').style.textAlign?? Where can I find the docs for this?

I have a style for links that I use in my main navigation menu, like so:

Code:

a.main_nav
{
     color:#FFFFFF;
     font-size:12px;
}
a.main_nav:link{  text-decoration: none }
a.main_nav:visited{ text-decoration: none }
a.main_nav:active{ text-decoration: none }
a.main_nav:hover{ text-decoration: underline; }

How can I wrap all the links in a <div> and not have to specify the class on each <a> ?

Hi!

Does anybody have some great link or book advice about all the properties of the DIV and/or LAYER - tags? Inspiring examples with javascript to this are also welcome. I will use it to build advanced layer functionality.

I am confused by the "rules" of how to indicate what you are trying to style when an element is within other elements. Specifically in this case (but hopefully this lesson will be portable to other contexts). I have a UL with an LI (classed) that is within an id'd UL that is within an id'd DIV.

Code:

<div id="horzmenu">
<ul id="horznavmenu">
  <li><a href='rooms.php'>Accomodations</a></li>
  <li class='hot'>Location & Info		 
    <ul>
	<li><a href='/otherprops.php'>Other Properties</a></li>
	<li><a href='/news.php'>News & Photos</a></li>
    </ul>
  </li>
  <li><a href='booking.php'>Booking</a></li>
</ul>
</div> 

So if I were to wish to style this new UL and its LI's do I refer to:
The parent UL as in: #horznavmenu ul ul {
The parent UL and the class'd LI as in: #horznavmenu ul ul li.class{

Or? Thanks in advance for any feedback or suggested reading...

I want the iframe to have a horizontal scrollbar but no vertical scrollbar. My code I've been attempting looks like this:

Code:

<iframe scrolling="auto" src="quicklinks.php" width="100%" height="200" name="helpContent" style="overflow-x: visible; overflow-y: hidden"></iframe>

Is this possible? If so, is it compatible with all browsers?

I know many of you are going to say, well you have it on auto and if you don't want it to scroll vertically, don't have a page in the iframe that is too high in height.

However the page has dynamic thing submitted to it and there might be the possibility that a user submits a name too long and I don't want to deal with only showing a certain length of the string.

Hey all, I'm developing an app for a client, and I've implemented quite a bit of it already, and it includes CSS.

Code:

<style>
 td {
 	 font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	 font-size: 11px;
	 color: #000000;
	 text-decoration: none; 
	 } 
</style>

As you all might know, this changes all <td> tags into this particular style. Is there a class that I can include that contains NO properties (default)? I'm not even sure if it's possible.

I just don't want to go back and add class tags everywhere.

Guys

I have the following issue regarding links and colours:

The colours of links are set thus:

a:link : White;
a:hover : Blue;
a:visited : White;

The problem I have is that I want a hovered link to turn blue even if it has been visited. Is there anything I can do about this...?

Is it necessary to declare properties like :


border-bottom:none;

text-transform:none;

My question is why would I declare them (above) ? Is it not assumed that unless I need something like text-transform:lowercase; I should not declare text-transform:none; ...this just add up more unnecessary lines of code.

What are the default properties of selectors? if not declared would it be safe to asumme that those defaul to 0, none, etc depending of the selectors?

tahnks

I noticed that if you place a border around an object with all sides having different colors, that a diagonal appears in each corner where the two colors meet.

Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
  <head>
    <title>My site</title>
    <style type="text/css">
      #my_id { 
        width: 100px;
        height: 100px;
        border-top: 10px solid red;
        border-bottom: 10px solid green;
        border-left: 10px solid blue;
        border-right: 10px solid black;
    </style>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="my_id">&nbsp;</div>
  </body>
</html>

Is there anyway to override this so that for example the bottom border extends from left to right edge at a height of 10px (using the above example) instead of gradually decreasing the height as it nears the edge?

Edited to add: I know that I could achieve this effect by nesting divs but I was curious as if there was a simpler solution.

Hi All,

I'm pretty confused by this. Work ins IE6 but not in Firefox 1.0.4

I've uploaded the offending page below...
http://www.bertucci.net/nwhc/index2.php

I moved the relavent CSS into the HTML and commented out the linking sheets.

The problem... at seemingly random places the hover properties do not work. On hover, the link should be underlined. Some links will work right, while others do not.

I've done many googles and a Dev Shed search with no answers so far, so I'm making a post here for help.

The page is a mix of DIV and TABLE elements. I just think it's easier for me to work with. A Side question, is this an 'ok' practice or should sites be designed strictly DIV or TABLE only? (All styles for DIVs are right in the DIV I have not broken them out yet until the design is hammered down).

Cheers,
Fozzy

I am having two problems with my tables right now:

Within the style sheet, I have the following:

table {
border: thin #0000CC;
}

If I am not mistaken, this should make all tables that have a border of 1 or greater to automatically be thin and blue.

This is not working...

Why not?
