CSS - Column Headache
Hi All,
I am having trouble trying to get the columns in this layout to work properly: http://www.lampdesign.co.uk/desdev/vsc/ The following image is how it should be shaping up: http://www.lampdesign.co.uk/desdev/vsc/vsc_real.png Problems: - In firefox the left column content is floating above the footer image - In IE the left column content appears to be pushing the right content downwards I have avoided padding and margins as far as possible. Relevant Source: <div id="contentcontainer"> <div id="leftcolumn"> This is the left column This is the left column This is the left column This is the left column </div> <div id="pagecontent"> This is the page content </div> </div> </div> <div id="footercurve"> </div> Css: #pagecontainer { background: url('images/global/pagebg.png'); width:790px; margin:0 auto; text-align:left; color:#333; } #contentcontainer { width:790px; margin:0 auto; } #leftcolumn { width: 180px; margin:0px; padding: 0px; font-size: 14px; color: #fff; float: left; } #pagecontent { width: 608px; margin: 0px; margin-left:182px; padding: 0px; font-size: 12px; } #footercurve { background: url('images/global/footercurve.png'); width:790px; height: 10px; margin:0 auto; text-align:left; color:#333; font-size: 0px; } If anyone can shed any light on what I am doing wrong, I would be most grateful. Thanks, Vince Similar TutorialsSo I came up with this lovely design for the company I'm working for, because they're website now is just utter crap. I figured instead of coding my usual way (a mess and unvalidated) I'd start off making it as clean and css-friendly as possible. I've run into some major issues, some common and some not. If any of you could help me, I would be extremely grateful. My main problem is my issue with internet explorer. I've positioned everything to match up perfectly in Firefox, the site looks great and is aligned fairly well. However, when the site hits IE, everything shifts a couple pixels and throws everything off. Anyone know why this is happening? There is also a gap at the top of the page in IE, which isn't present in firefox. I also can't figure out how to pus the footer to the bottom. I wanted another footer that stretched the whole page at the bottom (similar to the top), with a sort of 'prefooter' on top of it. I can't figure out how to just push a regular footer to the bottom, and I've tried all the fixes I can find online. Any idea why? Here is the site: Code: http://www.chromaticstudios.net/AVT/ I came across this site with a google search. I have been trying to make a website for my new business and I've been trying to learn CSS. Everything went fine until I tested resolutions out yesterday, I noticed they changed. I've been trying to place a text box in middle of an image but I can't get it to work correctly... a perfect example of what I'm trying to achieve is found he http://www.myspace.com/nourotika I have tried and tried and this is the website that came closest to my problem... My code would be: Code: <head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body {
background-color: #000;

<body><center>
<p style="position: absolute; top: 735px; right: 314px; width: 537px; padding: 4px; background-color: #000; font-weight: bold; font-size: 11px; font-xolor: #F00; height: 548px; color: #909; overflow: visible; z-index: 1;">content goes here</p>
</div>
http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t108/Katouuffxi/regular.jpg This would be the regular resolution I'm looking for http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t108/Katouuffxi/resproblem.jpg And this would be my screen resolution problem Sad I really don't know how in the world to do it and I'm just so close from finishing everything... help would be much much appreciated. yeah so I just need a simple help with something. Its some basic stuff for a myspace layout.. I have got an image to span.. i received help here a while ago with it. but I can't figure out how to hover & span together. like for instance.. the idle image icon is black & white.. then when I mouseover it i want it to alternate to the colour image and also span the large image of itself to the side. I cant seem to combine them.. its either one or the other. just hover colour image over b&W.. or jus span large image. been noob i dont really know what to chop and mix. so how can i do it?? thanks for any help :P 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. This is an abridged version of the site's code for example: Code: <style type="text/css">

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 Hi I am trying to make a table to display some stuff within a fix sized window. I want to have 5 columns of fixed width and one column that spans the rest of the remaining space. The Idea is to allow the widths of the first 5 columns to be changed by a script and having the last one adapting as needed... html Code: Original - html Code <div class="container"><table cellspacing="0"> <colgroup> <col width="40" /> <col width="220" /> <col width="120" /> <col width="65" /> <col width="40" /> </colgroup> <thead> <tr> <th>A</th> <th>B</th> <th>C</th> <th>D</th> <th>E</th> <th style="width: 100%;></th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>1</td> <td>2</td> <td>3</td> <td>4</td> <td>5</td> <td style="width: 100%;></td> </tr> </tbody> </table></div> <div class="container"><table cellspacing="0"> <colgroup> <col width="40" /> <col width="220" /> <col width="120" /> <col width="65" /> <col width="40" /> </colgroup> <thead> <tr> <th>A</th> <th>B</th> <th>C</th> <th>D</th> <th>E</th> <th style="width: 100%;></th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>1</td> <td>2</td> <td>3</td> <td>4</td> <td>5</td> <td style="width: 100%;></td> </tr> </tbody> </table></div> css Code: Original - css Code div.container { height: 400px; width: 800px; overflow: scroll; } table { width: 100%; } td { border-style: solid; border-color: silver; border-width: 0px; padding: 1px 3px; } th { border-style: outset; border-color: silver; border-width: 2px; background: silver; padding: 1px 3px; }
It really does fill the entire space but the last column crushes all the other into their minimal width resulting in linebreaks between words inside the cells... Please help me Hey, So I have a three column layout being implemented as such: html: Code:
<div class="content">
<div class="col1 column"></div>
<div class="col3 column"></div>
<div class="col2 column">
<div class="header">Header</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS: Code:
.column {
padding: 10px;
position:relative;
}
.header {
background:#cfe6f5;
color:#416383;
font-size:11px;
font-family:Arial;
font-weight:300;
padding-left:15px;
}
.col1 {
float: left;
width:250px;
}
.col2 {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
.col3 {
float:right;
width:250px;
}
The problem is that the width of the header div extends all the way to the left and right of the page when it's in the middle column, but behaves the way I want it to (extends to the left and right of the column) when it's in the left or right column. Any ideas? Thanks. --Surgery Question title: A 2 column layout, let only the second column scroll horizontally and let them both scroll vertically Hello I did try several idea's, but all failed. Then I did search the web but found a list of > 400.000 in google. If someone is willing to tell me if it is possible and give me some directions, please do. Everything is welcome. I got a list with 3 columns ( basically you could say I have only two columns because 2-3 could be concatenated to together, but they have a different style and justification, but I could live to start with a two column sample) f.e line 1 : value_one - ( some_text - value_two (right justified) ) line 2 : value_one - ( some_text - value_two (right justified) ) line 99:.... e.t.c Column one has a fixed width of 32px. 'some text' can be longer then the wide available and value_two is with 3 spaces appended to column 2. I want that column one is fixed horizontal and that the second and the third column can scroll horizontally. Of course when there are more line's then the height of the container is should be posable to scroll vertically. Finally I need the color behind column one be different then the column 2 and 3. So what I did create is a container with two containers where the left one has a different colour then the right one and above those a container with the list. I have overflow on auto, so I get scroll-bars when necessarily. But my problem is that when I scroll horizontally that my first column scrolls away to the left. Basically my question is. How can I get a 2 column layout, let only the second column scroll horizontally ( first is locked in horizontal place ) and let them scroll both vertically? Hi, hopefully you enjoyed the title, I had a good laugh thinking of it in that split second it took me to write it. So, I found a 3 column css layout on a CSS generator website, because I got sick of trying to hack up layouts I've made in the past that didn't work. Anyhow, it was working fine with one line of content in each column when I tested it out, however, once content in the middle column was added, and stretched vertically beyond a certain point, it will drag the left columns content down with it. The right column is not affected in any way. I have spent a few hours trying to look for reasons as to why it would happen, but I had no luck. I would appreciate any help... so thank you in advance if you take a stab at it. Here's the html: Code: <body> <div id="pagewidth"> <div id="header"></div> <div id="wrapper" class="clearfix" > <div id="twocols" class="clearfix"> <div id="maincol">Main Text, woot. (aka hi hi hi)</div> <div id="rightcol">Sidebar, yippee.</div> </div> <div id="leftcol"> <div id="navigation">test</div> </div> </div> <div id="footer"></div> </div> </body> and the CSS: Code: html, body

Again, thank you in advance if you can come up with anything. can i make my left column, the same height as my right column? or infact, if the left is taller than the right, the right extends to it and if the right is taller than the left the left extends to it? is this possible, cheers heres my css: left column, is #leftNav and the right column is #contentMain PHP Code: #content { margin:0px auto; padding: 0; width: 760px; } #contentMain { padding: 0; margin: 0; float: right; width: 632px; } #leftNav { color: #000; float: left; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 128px; } Hello, I am having difficulty with the center column on the following page: http://cbo4edu.org/index2.html I want to widen the center column so that the CBO NEWS heading touches the blue line which divides the center and right column. When I try to add width to the style sheet the left column moves out of alignment. Any help is much appreciated, thanks! I am a HTML&CSS novice - I am trying to write a page using a three column layout but the column colour doesn't reach the footer. I understand that this is a common problem and I've looked at a lot of examples on the web of how to work around this or create a better layout but I'm still not sure enough to know which would be the easiest and best to go within the page I have written. I want to avoid images but other than that any help would be great! I have validated the HTML & CSS and they are copied below (could any advice be really specific, as I said this is very new to me!).

Thanks in advance! hi all, right have got a problem which has been bugging me for days now. i have 4 columns in a row (inside a wapper div)which all will have different content image, text other divs/classes etc. now one of these columns will be quite fluid as it will have different text on each page meaning it will be quite long on some pages not on others. the problem i am getting is in the good browsers firefox etc its ok in IE6+. the wapper does'nt seem to see the divs in the content meaning it does not get filled, meaning that the footer flys to the top and not where it should be, i dont have a live version but heres the code: mainly thanks Dan <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> <style type="text/css"> <!-- #con { width:940px; height:400px; background-color:#00FFFF; } #wapper { width:940px; background-color:#006666; } #box { width:940px; background-color:#000033; height:40px; } #menu-pronuptia { width:185px; background-color:#6633CC; float:left; display:inline; } #menu-pronuptia1 { width:185px; background-color:#009900; display:inline; float:left; } #menu-pronuptia2 { width:385px; background-color:#0033CC; display:inline; float:left; clear:inherit; } #menu-pronuptia3 { width:185px; background-color:#CCCC33; display:inline; float:left; } --> </style> </head> <body> <div id="wapper"> <div id="menu-pronuptia"> <p>test</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> </div> <div id="menu-pronuptia1"> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> </div> <div id="menu-pronuptia2"> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> </div> <div id="menu-pronuptia3"> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> </div> </div> <div id="box"> <p><br /> </div> </body> </html> Hi, http://www.dudley.nhs.uk/search.asp has a two column effect. The CSS for it is he http://www.dudley.nhs.uk/css/screen.css I was wondering why if there is a table in the right hand column with a width percentage over 77% there is some horizontal scrolling? This happens in IE. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Janusz Jasinski Hey DevShed, I'm having issues with the CSS, and floats. I basically float everything to the left, and I'm having issues on the very far right with a space I cant fill basically, and on the left side I'm missing the 1px border from my wrapper div. The "user" div is supposed to be a few pixels wider, I chopped off some pixels because when I made it longer it dropped down to below the "adheader" div.

I want the first column to account for the left 80% of the container, and the second column to always be 150px, and always just to the right of the first column. so as you expand the container (the page) the left column should take up more and more space, but the right column should remain a constant 150px, and always a fixed distance from the left.

Should I be putting a div within another div and then setting its width and alignment, or is that no a good way of doing it? How do I get a two column stylesheet so that the height of the left hand area will be the same for the right hand menu. http://www.willisemail.co.uk/skill/ Any help would be great.

The design is slightly broken in Internet Explorer 6 the left margin of the container doesn't seem to want to tighten up against the content and I'm not really sure why. The margin-left for the #content div is 2em, but that doesn't account for the container sticking to the left side. Any suggestions? |
