CSS - Firefox Absolute Works Only Inline?
i have 10 div's with abolute positioning
and the css is external the html is like this <div class="1"> <div class="2">......... it works in IE but in firefox the images get put all below eachother on the left...except if i put the css inline it works Similar TutorialsHi all, Im hoping someone out there can help me. Ive just discovered ive made a massive mistake by designing my site and viewing it in IE. It looks fine in IE, but of course there is one part that looks terrible in FF ( not FFs fault i know!) The navigation bar is an inline list that is supposed to appear tabbed but in FF one of the tabs is pushed up a lot higher and I cant figure out what is pushing it up. i thought it might be the #ul secondary pushing it up (as this appears a bit wonky as well...)and i tried adding /* Hides from IE-mac \*/ #ul secondary { position: absolute; margin: 0; padding: 0; bottom: -41px; left: 1px; width: 100%; } /* End hide from IE-mac */ but this didnt change anything. i tried using the DOM inspector that comes with firebug but I still cant figure out whats pushing up the one home page tab.... Any tips anyone might have would be greatly appreciated. My style sheets is /*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* 2 column container ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*/ #content-container-two-column { margin-top:3px;

I need the body to bee 550px tall regardless of the content. Then, the footer will be below this. Here's the CSS for the maincontant: Code: ..oneColFixCtr #mainContent { position:absolute; padding: 0, 10px, 0, 10px;/* remember that padding is the space inside the div box and margin is the space outside the div box */ overflow:auto; height:500px; width:768px; background-color:#FFFFFF; }{ How can I make the container 500 px tall no matter what the content is? As you can see he http://www.caillouette.com/SelvanSite3/BaselineFees.php The page changes height according to the content. I don't want this. I want the height to be static 500px. Thanks - Hi, I have a strange problem where an inline style works, but if I put it in a new style class, it won't! Here is the CSS for a menu list: Code: #menu li{ vertical-align:middle; height:2em; padding-left:7px; padding-top:6px; float:left; margin-left:25px; background-color:#8D8387; display:block; } And then I want to apply this to the first list item: Code: .noMargin{ margin-left:0; } When I apply that class to the list item, nothing happens. However, when I use the inline style: style="margin-left:0;", it does work. What's going on? Thanks hi, i wanted to change a look of form submit buttons a bit and i found out i can do it using inline css, example: Code: <input type="submit" name="subbtn" value="Send" style="background-color: #fbbe2c; width: 120px; font-family: tahoma; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; color: #66666;"> but can't figure out how to define it using internal or external css. i tried this: Code: <head> <style type="text/css"> input.btn { background-color: #fbbe2c; width: 120px; font-family: tahoma; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; color: #66666; } </style> </head> ... <input type="submit" name="subbtn" value="send" class="btn"> which seems the most correct to me, but it doesn't work. style defined in this way is ignored. i'm sure there is a way to do it, but it seems i don't know the right way. could you help, please? I am desperate. I think I found a bug in Firefox, and I'm not sure how to work around it. The following code works in everything (IE 8, Chrome, Safari, Opera) except Firefox (version 3.6.3). Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug in Firefox? You can look what happens to the drop-down menu's on Menu 2 and 3 live by going to my site (deenfoxx dot com slash firefox-bug dot html). css Code: Original - css Code #main-nav { background-color: black; height: 40px; } #nav { position: relative; margin: 0; padding: 0; } #nav li { position: relative; float: left; display: table; width: 99px; height: 40px; border-right: 1px solid white; text-align: center; font-size: 10px; } #nav li:hover { background-color: darkred; } #nav a { display: table-cell; vertical-align: middle; line-height: 11px; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; color: #fff; } #nav li ul { position: absolute; padding: 0; background-color: gray; top: 40px; left: 0px; } #nav li ul li { width: 98px; border: 0; border-top: 1px solid white; } #main-nav html4strict Code: Original - html4strict Code <div id="main-nav"> <ul id="nav"> <li id="m1"><a href="#1">Main Menu 1</a></li> <li> <a href="#2">Main Menu 2</a> <ul> <li><a href="#2a">Sub-Category 1</a></li> <li><a href="#2b">Sub-Category<br/>with multiple lines</a></li> </ul> </li> <li> <a href="#3">Main Menu 3 with multiple lines</a> <ul> <li><a href="#3a">Sub-Category 2</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="#4">Main Menu item which has a really long name on it</a></li> </ul> </div> <div id="main-nav"> The problem appears to be that "#nav li" happens to have position:relative; and a display:table; and "#nav li ul" is position:absolute;. Normally, absolute positioning requires its parent or ancestor position to be set, but when used with the table display, it doesn't work normally on Firefox--but it does on other browsers. Can someone help me with a workaround that does not involve altering the HTML? If I must, I will accept a workaround that requires changing the HTML, but I'll have to do some heavy duty recoding of Magento's core menu generation. Anyone that knows Magento knows I want to avoid that like the plague--my example is a very simplified version of the problem. Hi, can anybody help me stretch green buttons for Firefox just like they appear in IE? I'd greatly appreciate the help. Please see the attached html. I'm trying to display 5 images across, and underneath each image will be a caption. So, i'm using an inline list, but how do I go about getting something to the second line for each list item, seems that inline-block works fine in IE, but since its not available for Firefox, what's the method people use here? Hi guys, Please help. Im very confused as to why setting display:inline in my CSS is giving me grief with text "breaking out" of the list element in FireFox???. If I give the li element a background colour clearly I can see that the text is outside the boundaries of the li element. However, if I used display:block and float:left the li item ecompasses the text just fine. My CSS is below. Thankyou in advance Code: #navcontainer { margin-left: 30px; } #navlist{ list-style: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; } #navlist li { display: inline; border-right: 1px solid #000; padding: 0 0.4em 0 0.4em; margin: 0 0.4em 0 -0.4em; } /*Win IE browsers - hide from Mac IE\*/ * html #navlist li { display: block; float: left; } #navlist li a{ font-family: Garamond, "Garamond-Normal", Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif; font-size: 200%; /* set the font size for p, scaled from the body declaration */ text-decoration:none; } #navlist a:link, #navlist a:visited{ color: #666; } /* unvisited link */ #navlist a:link#current, #navlist a:visited#current, #navlist a:hover { color: #000; } The objective: Produce page content which behaves as if it were 'tabbed' as seen on many websites and programmes. I have done this many times before, but only with absolute positioning from the document base level. This time, the div containing the information to be tabbed has to appear relative (for re-sizability) and contain the tab divs within it. I am using a short javascript to change the z-index of the divs in order to produce the tab effect. The problem: The whole thing works fine, except for: - If I leave the css height off the divs, IE chops the bottom off, and does not allow a scroll. - If I put a height and auto (or scroll) overflow on the divs they display correctly in IE, but disappear in firefox - Until a table contained within one of the divs becomes larger than the stated height. At which point that div (not any of the others) disappears from IE as well. The question: Is this a known bug? If so, what is the work-around? Have I done something dumb? If so, what? The source: source files are available for download (they are quite large, and I don't want to trim them in case something in the trim is the problem. Plus they need to be large to demonstrate the length issue correctly). Text within these examples is copyrighted by various people and is used without permission, for illustrative purposes only. the xhtml page - click through the tabs to see the effect. Add extra rows to the table in the 'dates & prices' tab to see the disappearing problem. the javascript file - the function is at the bottom, 'layer_z_lift'. the css stylesheet - the styles for the tabs are in the middle, commented as tour details tabs. any questions, post and I shall answer. Jz. Please look at http://www.rodstrans.com/diagnosis/body_leaks.html In IE & Chrome the checkboxes are positioned absolute in each table cell, but in Firefox they all bunch at the top left. I have put a position:relative on all parent elements and can not figure out what is happening. Join Date: May 2008 Posts: 2 Firefox bug combining absolute and fixed positioning Hey helpful people. I am designing a site which has a floating toolbar (position: fixed) with popup menus. The popup menus are using nested lists and position: absolute to display. JavaScript is dealing with the transition. The problem is that in firefox alone the fixed toolbar jumps when the popup menus show and hide. Removing either position: fixed or the offset (bottom: 27px) removes this problem. However these need to be present in the design. Anyone know a workaround?

If you want to see what I mean, go to baampblue . asystechonline . com / ReconstructIndex.php. Sorry I could not insert a link. I'm a new member. I password protected this to keep bots from scanning it. The username is the word demo. The password is also the word demo. Look for "Carl Gohm" on the right side of the page, under "BAAMP Honors Lifetime Members". Click on the Carl Gohm link. A new rounded corner box will open up in the "Featured Projects" display with a picture and information about Carl. If you look at the new box in IE 8, Opera 11, Chrome 11, or Safari 5.0.5 the new box fits perfectly inside of the Featured Projects display. If you look at the new box in Firefox 4 or 3.5, you should notice that the new box is shifted up 3 pixels too high. The HTML and CSS validate with no errors on the W3C validators. I'm using jQuery to generate the new box for Carl Gohm. I have ruled out the jQuery as the cause of the problem by creating a minimal test case that doesn't involve jQuery. I tried using a clean version of Firefox from Spoon.net, because I thought maybe one of the Add-Ons in Firefox was causing the problem. That didn't make any difference. I tried viewing this on another computer that is running Firefox 4 on Windows XP, but the problem was still there. I used Firebug to disable and then re-enable each line of CSS one at a time to see if there was a CSS problem. I didn't notice an improvement. I just need to know if I am wasting my time trying to troubleshoot something that is not correctable. Thank you in advance for your time. Firefox ignores the white background in the "main" <div> in the following, but IE, Opera and Safari/Win all display the white background. Is this a firefox bug, or am I missing something here? Note: The z-indexes are for when the "main" div is scrolled... Also note: I am making the <body> tag relatively positioned because otherwise, Firefox (apparently) treats the viewport as the parent to the absolute-positioned element. In that case, it renders the white background until the bottom of the window, but reverts back to black "below the fold" because bottom: 0 is interpreted as the bottom of the window. Code: <html> <head> <style type="text/css"> body {background: black; color: silver; position: relative} div#header {position: fixed; top: 0; left: 20%; height: 80px; z-index: 2; right: 0; background: gray; margin-bottom: 2px; color: yellow} div#sidebar {position: fixed; top: 0; bottom: 0; left: 0; right: 80%; background: silver; margin-right: 2px; color: maroon} div#main {position: absolute; top: 80px; left: 20%; right: 0; bottom: 0; background: white; color: red; z-index: 1} </style> </head> <body> <div id="header"> <h1>header</h1> </div> <div id="sidebar"> sidebar <ul> <li>one</li> <li>two</li> <li>three</li> <li>four</li> </ul> </div> <div id="main"> <p> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.

They sent me a PSD and told me to layout using nothing but CSS and no tables. So I did so... and it looks fantastic in Firefox, but not at all good in IE. The only real problem is with the positioning.. the content color and size and everything seems to be fine.... all the positioning is done in the code on the website, where you can view source... I pasted the CSS code below, but doubtful it will help much. Can anyone offer me some help? The site is he http://www.eomnis.com/test the style sheet is here http://www.eomnis.com/test/css.css and i pasted the style sheet code below. Thanks for any help everyone. Aaron <style type="text/css"> body { background-image: url('images/main_background.jpg'); background-color:#000000; background-repeat: no-repeat; margin: 0px; } .top_text { font-size: 14px; font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#FFFF00; font-weight:400; } .bold_grey{ font-size:11px; font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#EEEEEE; font-weight:300; letter-spacing:inherit; } .small_text{ font-size:9px; font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#EEEEEE; font-weight:300; letter-spacing:inherit; } form { font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#FFFFFF; font-size:10px; font-weight:300; } .select { font-size:9px; height:15px; } .input { font-size:9px; height:16px; width:160px; } .zip { width: 94px; height:16px; font-size:9px; } .Footer_links{ color:#CCCCCC; font-size:14px; font-weight:300; text-decoration:none; } </style> I have the following CSS that I believe is valid, but it only works in IE. In fact in IE it works perfect, but in FireFox it does not display anything at all. Code: <div style="font-size:8px; text-align:left; background-color:red; width:100px;"><div style="font-size:8px; background-color:green; width:75px;"></div></div> What I am trying to do is display a rating. In the above example, the rating is 75/100, so a green bar 75px long over a red bar 100px long. Ok so I have a page, and The opacity only works in firefox, not IE.

I am going to change my site to using a CSS file for font color and display and such. I am pretty new at using CSS files with my web site, other that messing with it in modifying my blog skin. I created one I want to use at: http://rhodesfamily.org/style.css, but I can only get it to work with IE. Here is my test page: http://rhodesfamily.org/index_test.htm. It will not display in Firefox, which is my main browser . Your help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Carl |
