CSS - How Do I Make Multiple Tabs?
How do I make multiple tabs in CSS? I want tabs with rounded corners. So far I can only get 1 tab. What do I do to make more?
Similar TutorialsHello. I've searched far and wide for a good tutorial on how to make multi-row navigation tabs (something that kind of resembles the System Properties box in Windows). Can this be done using ordered lists? Does anyone know of a good source for this? thanks much. -Dan Hello! Im Using Joomla to build my website. Im using a module and im changing the css styling.

Hi I've got 4 divs that are of the exact same size. I need them to all occupy the same real estate on a page. three of them will always be hidden and only one is visible at a time, this is controled by javascript. My question is what kind of positioning tricks do I have to do in order to make these 4 identical sized divs occupy the same space. I tried relative positioning like this div1{ position:relative; top:0; left:0; height:200px;} div2{ position:relative; top:-200; left:0;height:200px;} div3{ position:relative; top:-400; left:0;height:200px;} div4{ position:relative; top:-600; left:0;height:200px;} This only moved the contents of each div up to the desired location, however, it did not move the actual div itself, so I'm left with the reserved 600px high worth of empty space Please help i'm trying this CSS Tab deelio, but I can't seem to get it right. I'm kind of new to this, but check out this page and tell me what I'm doing wrong. Thanks! (URL address blocked: See forum rules) Heya, Any ideas how I can center the tabs on this page? http://explosiveracing.net/testing/menu.html The HTML and CSS is self explanatory. Thanks I've found a number of great examples of how to do tabs with CSS (http://unraveled.com/projects/css_tabs/ being the one I'm working off of), but they all link to various other HTML pages. Does anyone know of a reasonably simple way to do them inline? (think www.johnkerry.com) I'm sure there's javascript involved, but does anyone know of a good resource on how to accomlish something like this? I have an issue with my first website. I'm trying to center the tabs at the top of my page, but I cannot seem to figure out how to do it. I've tried using floats, auto margins, clears, etc., but nothing seems to be working. Could I get some help on this? http://bud12345.fusedtree.com Here's the CSS: Code: body {

Hello, I am having some problems with my code. I'm not able to insert these forms properly into these divs. I would like the forms to be placed within the tab (more or less centered), however, how it is now the form is half way in and half out of the tab. When I try and move the form over it distorts the tab image. Please help me fix this problem. I'm uncertain about what is wrong and how to fix it. Thank you in advance. Code:

Hello all - I am trying to implement tabs to my forum, I currently have some on there but I like the looks better of the new ones that I am trying to get going. I find that when I get them working (using additional CSS as well as navbar/header edit) it will not work in all browsers. If I post the CSS as well as the navbar/header code would you be able to help me track down my issue? EDIT - I was going to post screenshots but was not permitted Hi, New to CSS and all. Trying to work on a web site. I used a Wordpress theme and modified it to my liking. I am having a small issue that I would really appreciate help on. marinhome.inwire .net/lessons The page uses tabs. When you click from one tab to another, the tab content is shifting down. Can somebody please let me know what the problem is? Thanks, Gaurav I have too many items for one row of tabs, how do I get a second row? Save this as tab.png URL Here's my working fine one row code: design.css Code: ol#toc {

I can't figure it out I've tried amny thing that didnt work. I've been searching for a selector that will let me access these hidden elements but I can't come up with anything. I half accomplished what I was trying but I can't get the changes to stick. Thanks for reading I have been monkying around all day with this code and can't seem to get it reversed correctly, so that all the tabs start on the right side instead of the left. I end up messing it up pretty badly and I can't seem to figure out where I am going wrong with it.... any help is appreciated.

Was working on a new design for one of my sites today and when I inadvertently discovered using buttons as tabs, however... I am more of a programmer than I am a designer. The tabs look differently in Firefox than they do in IE. In IE, I give the currently tab more padding than the other buttons and those other buttons stay attached to the <div> below them. In Firefox/Mozilla, the other buttons are raised up. See here* *You will notice that the Home page has rounded corners, while the About page does not; can't decide which one I like better The other issue I have in IE is that when I button is being clicked/activated, it detaches itself from the <div> below. -- Maybe a good time to also ask how I can accomplish something using div's or span's that I used to do with table's: How would I have a 700px wide box, with a div at the top, split 50/50 so that I could have a small logo at the top left and a search box (on the same row) at the top right? I have always: Code: <table width="700"> <tr> <td width="50%">logo</td> <td width="50%" align="right">search box</td> </tr> </table> -- One mo If I am using HTML 4.01 strict, can I still use: Code: <td align="center" valign="middle"> or do I have to: Code: <td style="text-align:center;vertical-align:middle"> Cheers! I am using tabs to switch between screens. So the tabs could be information, telephone, notes etc. So its the same customer just different aspects of their information. This has worked well however I now want to add a sideways tab system. This means I want to use similar tabs but rotate it 90 degrees. So its on its side. I was wondering if anyone had come across tabs that where on thier side before and a link to a tutorial would be great! thanks. I'm looking to add some angled corners to my tabs and maybe a bevel. Currently, my tabs are pure css with no js. Any way to angle the corners with css? Or am I going to have to whip out my Photoshop and use some images? I've checked out alistapart.com and found his code to be too buggy. Any links to some other tutorials would be much appreciated. NOTE: This is a learning project and NOT a REAL COMPANY My Site Morning guys, Im coding my blog and well im having big issues with the tabbed navigaion.

Could someone help me with this please? and it it to look like the picture Its been troubling me for days. Mak Hi there, I have some CSS tabs, but they are displaying differently in IE7 than FF. This is my code: PHP Code: #nav { float:left; width:100%; background:yellow; height: 27px; font-size:93%; line-height:normal; list-style: none; margin: 0px; } #nav li { float:left; background:url("images/tab_left.jpg") no-repeat left top; margin:0; padding:0px; list-style: none; } #nav a, #navheader strong, #nav span { display:block; background:url("images/tab_right.jpg") no-repeat right top; padding:5px 15px 4px 6px; } and my html: PHP Code: <div id="nav"> <ul> <li><a href="#">Home</a></li> <li id="current"><a href="#">News</a></li> <li><a href="#">Products</a></li> <li><a href="#">About</a></li> <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li> </ul> </div> Any ideas whats causing these different outcomes? I've search these forums and found several threads about this topic but none have any real answers to this issue. I've got some navigation tabs, similar to Sitepoint's tabs. How does one go about centering them in the page? My site: http://www.webhelpzone.com/ CSS: Page Layout and Navbar Styles I've tried doing this: Code: ul#nav {
position: absolute;
left: 50%;
width: 505px;
margin-left: -252px;
}
Which actually centers the navigation bar, but when the browser is shrunk down, the bar ends up being pushed off the screen. Sitepoint's nav bar just shrinks down, remaining centered in the browser window. How do you accomplish the centering of navigational tabs? Hello, I'm still playing around with CSS and I put together this test, to see if I could create tabs on a page.... Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Test Site</title>
<style type="text/css">
/* ----- ALL ----- */
* {
font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

}
/* ----- TABS ----- */
#tabs {
float:left;
}
#tabs, #tabs ul, #tabs li {
margin:0;

<body>
<div id="tabs">
<ul>
<li class="active"><a href="#">Option 1</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Option 2</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Option 3</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
<br /> <!-- If I remove this, the section overlaps the tabs! -->
<div id="section1">
Hello
</div>
</body>
</html>
I know I know, it's very basic! The problems im trying to figure out are as follows.... 1. This code displayed in Firefox, works as i'd expect. But under the dreaded IE, it displays the tabs diagonally down the page. I know that IE doesn't work as it should, but how do I get the tabs to look the same in IE as they do in Firefox (ie... display them correctly!) 2. The tabs are meant to sit right on top of the section of orange. Using the BR tag (commented in script), I can get it to move down a little bit - but how do I achieve positioning the section box right underneath the tabs using CSS? All help is appreciated! JT p.s. Attached a screenie of the browser output for reference! |
