CSS - Bg Images Not Lining Up. Help, Please?
Hi CSS masters,
I am building a site for a friend who's starting a concrete business. I just finished making all the BG images, and am now starting the coding process, all CSS based. Well, I'm highly mediocre at CSS design, and could use some help. The build site is here. As you'll be able to see, the entire BG is actually made up of 4 images. The top image repeats along x, the bottom left along why. The other two are to remain static and unrepeated. In IE, the problems are as follows: 1. On top, there is a small white area, and I don't know why. I can't seem to find why it's padded. The two images should but right up against each other to create a seamless piece visually. 2. The part that is currently in the middle should be on the left. Why is it not? 3. The tan portion of the left part should repeat downward along y. It doesn't. Why? In FF, the problems are as follows: 1. The body is not centered. 2. Everything else is fine regarding BG placement (damned IE), but the bottom part of the left image is still not repeating. Help is, as always very much appreciated! Thanks, folks, Chris Similar TutorialsHi, I have my images defined in my .css file and then called in the div so that I can write on them and like them this way But the problem is that I seem to be unable to put them side by side because div puts in a line break and span won't show them with their assigned width and height. Any help appriciated!

What I want is one image, a small advert, home image, small advert, next image all in a line. When I test the page with google's Chrome the page looks perfect, but with firefox and IE it's all jumbled up. To understand have a look at the page i've been working on with the three different programs. The link is: www (dot) lisbonweekendguild (dot) com/photowebpage/evora/aqueduct_evora.html Any ideas how to organise it for IE and firefox? Any help is greatly apperciated, as its driving me mad! CSS for the three images is .navigationimagesleft{ margin-right: 8px; margin-left: 8px; } and i'm using dreaweaver CS3..... Hi there, I'm having a tough time getting these two images to align side by side...the line keeps breaking and thus forcing the image to the next line, as show here (not to mention it's messing with my footer): http://www.groundedgroup.com/client...A_Index_v2.html Here's the respective css: CSS Stuff Here's what it's supposed to look like: http://www.groundedgroup.com/client...EA_Show_v2.html Both of the images add up to a total width of 956px, however, the div containing it is set to 947px width. If I change it to 956px, it works, but it pushes out the sides, resulting in the left and right vertical borders not lining up with the rest of header, footer, etc. Ideally, I want these images to hover over this area and thus not spread out the design. Got any ideas? BTW, I checked my css and xhtml before posting and it validates. Thanks for your help.

One, the logo is divided into three parts, and they just don't seem to be lining up correctly. I think they should be right though? Can anyone see why? Second, I found some CSS styling that is supposed to provide a text shadow in any browser. I'm using it because the text for the main links is blending in too much with that background bit. It works in IE6, but it doesn't seem to be working for Firefox, where it's supposed to be using :before I think. I'm unable to test any other browsers except IE7 which I just haven't yet. Here is the attached shadows style sheet code: Code: /* CSS Document */ /* default setup that everything sees */ .shadow { /* needed for Internet explorer */ height: 1em; filter: Shadow(Color=#666666, Direction=135, Strength=5); /* Needed for Gecko */ line-height: 2em; white-space: nowrap; } /* * used by browsers which know about * :before to create the shadow */ .shadow:before { display: block; margin: 0 0 -2.12em 0.15em; padding: 0; color: #666666; } #shadow_1:before { content: 'In shadow'; } #second_2:before { content: 'Happy Shadowing!'; } /*\*/ html*.shadow { [color:red;/* required by Safari * so that [] is correctly * begun. associated with * the property, yet hiding * it. Seen by IE6 */ /* * seen by IE6 and Safari, but hidden * from Gecko */ text-shadow: #666666 5px 5px 5px; ]color:auto; /* resets color for IE6 */ }/**/ /* * end hack using dummy attribute selector * for IE5 mac */ .dummyend[id]{clear: both;} /*\*/ html*.shadow:before { [color:red;/* required by Safari. seen by IE6 */ /* * seen by IE6 and Safari, but hidden * from Gecko */ display: none; ]color:auto; /* resets color for IE6 */ }/**/ /* * end hack using dummy attribute selector * for IE5 mac */ .dummyend[id]{clear: both;} Any assistance is of course greatly appreciated. Thanks! Hi All! I am hoping that someone might be able to help me out here. I am working on a page layout that consists of a header/logo then beneath that is five link nav bar and then below the content area. The header and content are fine and look great - but the nav bar seems to stepping over to the left a touch (PC IE in particular) and so is messing up the layout! I am finishing the job off for someone and there is a lot of bits and bobs that don't need to be in there - but when I take stuff out it messes up other parts of the layout! this is the layout and this is the css How can I stop the nav from moving and just make go full width (729px)????? Please save my sanity!!!! D I have 2 buttons that are not lining up in IE7. I have it working Safari and Firefox on the MAC, but my PC IE browser won't align the buttons. I have tried everything, but no luck. Here's the site: http://www.caillouette.com/Utilitrek/four/ Here's the CSS for the button elements: Code: #bottombox{ clear:both; float:left; display:inline; width:710px; height:61px; margin:0px 0px 0px 0px; } .collectionBig { position: relative; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; background: url(images/nav/bigBN/collectionBig_on.gif) no-repeat; display: inline; width: 271px; height: 61px; margin: 0 0 0 0px; padding: 0; } .collectionBig a { background: url(images/nav/bigBN/collectionBig_on.gif) no-repeat; display: inline; color: #000000; font-size: 11px; width: 271px; height: 61px; float: left; color: black; text-decoration: none; } .collectionBig img { width: 271px; height: 61px; border: 0; background: url(images/nav/bigBN/collectionBig_on.gif) no-repeat; } * html a:hover { visibility:visible; } a:hover img { visibility:hidden; } .memberBig { float:right; position: absolute; top:0; margin-right:5px; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; background: url(images/nav/bigBN/membershipBig_on.gif) no-repeat; /* white-space: wrap; */ display: inline; width: 414px; height: 61px; padding: 0 0 0 0; } .memberBig a { display:inline; color: #000000; font-size: 11px; width: 414px; height: 61px; float: right; color: black; text-decoration: none; } .memberBig img { width: 414px; height: 61px; border: 0; } "collectionBig" and "memberBig" are wrapped inside of the "bottombox" div any help is appreciated. -S I'm very new to CSS, and I'm learning to use div tags for my layout. My navbar is a div within my header div, and it's not lining up the way I'd like. Here's a link for an example: www . cooperworkskilns . com The Home button should be at the bottom left of the header. Here's the pertinent css: #header{ margin:0px 0px 10px 0px; padding:0px; width: 700px; height: 125px; border-bottom: 1px solid #666; background-image:url(../img/header.gif); } #navbar{ margin:0px 0px 0px 0px; padding:0px; width: 700px; } Hi guys, I'm having trouble with the css on the website I'm building. I have a background image and am trying to arrange the navigation link on the left hand side of the page. The trouble is that I can line up images with the background on IE and Firefox but chrome is proving troublesome. I can't figure out why it works fine in Firefox but not in chrome. Can anyone shed some light or offer me an alternative to get the same effect. jamesdrinkwater.co.uk Thanks in advance everyone James Big surprise, issue with IE. I have a layout I'm working on that is tableless. In FF the layout appears as it should, but in IE I'm getting a little bit of a gap between my header image and my nav images. The background (where the date is showing) is also appearing a little bit lower than the rest div contents. The site is Shallow Drop The CSS is: Code: html, body { background: url(../images/back.gif) #4a4949; font: 12px Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif; color: #d6d5d5; height: 100%; text-align: center; } a { color: #d6d5d5; font-weight: bold; } a:hover { color: #faec0a; } #container { width: 816px; margin: 0 auto; text-align: left; background: url(../images/fill2.gif) repeat-y center; } #header { width: 816px; height: 118px; } #nav { width: 816px; height: 29px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: top; background: url(../images/date.gif) no-repeat right; } #nav-list { float: left; width: 80%; height: 29px; } #nav a { cursor:crosshair; } #date { float: right; vertical-align: bottom; text-align: left; width: 20%; height: 29px; padding-top: 7px; } #bod { width: 780px; height: auto; margin: 0 auto; padding: 5px; } HTML Code: <div id="container"> <div id="header"> <img src="<?php echo"$GLOBALS[mosConfig_live_site]/templates/$GLOBALS[cur_template]/images/header.gif";?>" alt="Shallow Drop" border="0" usemap="#Map" /> <map name="Map" id="Map"><area shape="rect" coords="33,9,165,117" href="index.php" alt="Home" /></map> </div> <div id="nav"> <span id="nav-list"> <img src="<?php echo"$GLOBALS[mosConfig_live_site]/templates/$GLOBALS[cur_template]/images/left_sun.gif";?>" alt="Shallow Drop Madison, WI" /> ...some more images... </span> <span id="date"><?php echo (strftime (_DATE_FORMAT_LC)); ?></span> </div> <div id="bod"><?php mosMainBody(); ?></div> Hi there, I have a drop down menu which I want to display next to another link to the right of the page (so there is a link to the far right and then the drop down to the left of the right link), however the drop down link is appearing under the far right link in FF, instead of beside it like it is in IE. Any ideas what I have wrong? This is my CSS: PHP Code: #tools{ text-align:right; padding-right: 20px; } #add_business{ background-image: url('images/add_business.png'); height: 21px; width: 156px; float:right; text-align:center; padding-top: 4px; } #add_business a:link{ font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #ffffff; text-decoration:underline; } #add_business a:hover{ font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #ffffff; text-decoration:none; } #com_tools{ text-align: right; margin-right: 200px; margin-top: 0px; float:right; } #menu ul .item{ display:none; list-style:none; list-style-image:none; } #menu ul:hover .item{ display:block; list-style:none; list-style-image:none; } #menu{position:absolute; list-style:none; list-style-image:none; } and this is my HTML: PHP Code: <div id="tools"> <div id="com_tools"> <div id="menu"> <ul id="item1"> <li class="top">Community Tools</a> <img src="templates/images/arrow_down.gif" /></li> <li class="item"><a href="#">menu item 1</a></li> <li class="item"><a href="#">menu item 2</a></li> <li class="item"><a href="#">menu item 3</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> <div id="add_business"><a href="#">Add Your Business!</a></div> </div> I've got a page whose layout I'm defining with divs and spans and css, and it *seems* at first glance that the divs in 2 separate columns are lining themselves up when they shouldn't be. The code: Basic layout defined by Code: <div class="menucolumn"> <!-- some content in my left hand column --> </div> <div class="maincolumn"> <!-- some content in my right hand column --> </div> Corresponding CSS: Code: div.menucolumn{ float: left; width: 200px; margin-top: 20px; } div.maincolumn{ margin-left: 205px; padding-left: 5px; border-left: 1px solid #222222; } Form Fields: Code: <span class=\"formlabel\">Use MySQL (yes or no):</span> <input type=\"text\" name=\"usemysql\" class=\"formfield\"> CSS: Code: .formlabel, .formfield{ color: #222222; text-decoration: none; font-color: #222222; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; display: block; width: 300px; float: left; margin-top: 5px; } .formlabel{ text-align: left; width: 300px; } Inside the left column (menucolumn class) there are about 10 small divs which contain a link each with short text. In the right column there are 6 very large divs used to define peices of a large configuration form. As you can see by the screenshot, the first right hand div (the "Program Configuration" label in the screenshot below) and the span immediatly below it (the first field in the form) seem to be lining up with the div that contains the links on the left. How can I get the rest of the form fields to fill up that space? Hello, I am sure that the solution to my problem is obvious in many ways. I thought maybe a fresh set of eyes would help. I have a two column site, the columns are constructed side by side using the css float parameter. I have a wrapper around all of it to center it, and divs for every element. One of the last divs (containing an h2, but I'd rather use images)will not drop down and line up with other h2. They are both inside divs. I followed several instructions on several websites, listed below, but I cannot get this div to sit right, meaning be under my images (using lightbox 2) and act as a delimiter for the next set of images Web Site: (sample dot funky-penguin dot com) CSS help garnered he (alistapart dot com/stories/practicalcss) My xhtml and css 2.0 all validate, so I don't think that is the problem. I hope I was specific enough. Thank you in advance for all of your assistance. currently i am trying to get my navigation to line up in IE, works great in FF... currently i have something that kinda works... Code: * html #navigation { margin-top:-24px; } but it has fatal flaws.. is there any setting i can flick on to get IE to look like FF... here is the link.. Navigation Menu Issues in IE also, for some reason there is a wider gap on the right of the login boxes then in FF... i could define a * html code for it, but would rather not. We have a list of items that are not lining up under each other. The list of items is under a class 'item-list', each individual item that is in the list is listed as an instance of the same class ''view-item view-item-RecentReviewSummary'. Each list item consists of a title (a link), a small photo to the left with labels/text wrapping around the photo on the right. It happen when the page is wide (different monitors, resolutions etc) and in cases where the text wraps under it's photo (ie long enough text to require an extra line under the photo). We were trying to use display: block, margins and positions to fix this. any ideas? Thank you.

On my sitehttp://northshorewebdesign.net/testsite/ I have a horizontal menu with text and one image link. The menu is under the slideshow. There are 4 text links and an image link. I am trying to line up the text and image horizontally. Can anyone see what I am doing wrong? Here's the code: Code: .homepage-sub-menu {float: left; width: 960px; height: 70px;overflow: hidden; position: relative; margin: 10px 0px;} .homepage-sub-menu ul{list-style-type: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; overflow:hidden;} .homepage-sub-menu ul li {float: left; vertical-align:middle; width: 180px;} .homepage-sub-menu ul li a:link,a:visited {display: block; width: 180px; font-family: Calibri,Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; padding: 10px 4px; font-size: 20px;color: #ffffff; text-decoration:none; vertical-align:middle;display:table-cell;line-height: 70px;} .homepage-sub-menu ul li a:hover,a:active{text-decoration: underline; vertical-align:middle;} Thank you Im just curious, what are the advantages of using css to import all your images (that arnt dynamic) as apposed to inserting them into your html using the <img> tag? Hi, I can't believe I'm posting this but I can't seem to get this to work. I cannot load a background image through a simple div tag. It works if I switch the id selector to the BODY tag in my code and displays the image but does not work if I use the selector with the DIV tag. I have no idea why. Please help My HTML file Quote: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Title of the document</title> <LINK REL=StyleSheet HREF="styles.css" TYPE="text/css"> </head> <div id="header"> Div Tag here </div> <body> The content of the document...... </body> </html> My CSS file Quote: #header { background-image: url(navtext.png); background-image: no-repeat; } Use any image you have to test. i can only find the script to show background images in a css style sheet..but how would I go about for example showing an image not as background? i have style switcher, but I'm wanting to use buttons aswell for example blue.gif and red.gif using 2 different styles. how would I show the image in css?, which I can also put a link on maybe in the html or css? HElP! thanks |
