CSS - Ie Issue With Horizontal Line
Hi there,
I'm wondering if someone here can help me out with a little problem I'm having. I've set up a test page here to show you what I'm trying to do. Basically, the horizontal line needs to be closer to the 'center surface winders ect.' links. Since IE and Gecko based browsers (Firefox, Mozilla ect.) read horizontal lines differently, I've set 3 different line classes in the basic CSS code. Everything works out fine in the Gecko based browsers, but IE still doesn't allow me to change the margin properties for the bottom of the line. I've tried editing pretty much every property but can't find out what is controlling this in IE. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Similar TutorialsI cannot edit the style sheets or the PHP, but I can override certain elements in the CMS. I need to place a horizontal line or rule under this element. The syntax below just puts it under the text. I want the line across the entire page. Can someone help me out? .cat-links { border-bottom: 1px solid cyan; } I've been trying to solve this for many hours. I'm using CSS and transitional tables. I have content with a box of navigation right aligned within the content table. I need to have a gray line in the content area dividing sections. The width of that gray line is dependent on whehter that navigation box is there or not. I've tried two ways to create the line, a table set at 100% with a gray background color and a <hr> tag that is styled in the css. I thought the hr tag was working, but in NS7, the gray line writes over the navigation box. Here's the page: http://www.vma.org/paris/nci-intranet/work-life-services-coachin.html If I use a table width=100%, it starts working in NS7 and Firefox, but stops working in IE. As you can see from the page, the width of the gray line is dependent on the navigation box to the right. The navigation box is a right aligned table floating within the content box. Here's my <hr> definition in the css: hr { border: 0; color: #D5D5D5; background-color: #D5D5D5; height: 1px; text-align: left; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; } Any ideas? Its driving me crazy, I know there's gotta be a simple solution to having the line take up the same amount of space as the text does and no more. Thanks! Hello all, I've just recently began adventuring into the world of CSS and am in need of some help. I've created a horizontal nav menu that works perfectly fine in FF, Opera, etc. but refuses to listen in IE. The drop-down menu is positioned over to the right in IE, while in every other browser the menu is positioned (correctly) centered. I'd post a url but I'm just working offline on my computer so I don't have one to provide :\. I appreciate any advice you guys got for me.

Of course it works fine in every browser but IE6. I was hoping someone could give me some help. Here is a link to a test version of the nav: (removed) I used ugly colors for testing purposes. Basically (and you'll have to see this for yourself in IE6 I suppose) the display:block code is not working properly. When you mouse over the top level tabs, the background should stay red. In IE6 if your cursor touches the text (which I've outlined in white for ease of viewing), the red turns off. It works fine if the cursor doesn't touch the text. The nav is built using an unordered list with CSS. I can't for the life of me figure out what's up. I've tried all sorts of IE6 hacks. If you're industrious here is a zip file with all the source files (CSS & HTML) (removed) Thanks for any tips! Hi there, I have not done any html/CSS in a LONG time and have just got back into it. I am having some problems with a drop down, where, when the sub menu is hovered over, it will not go away again until the mouse is moved either up above the menu bar or off the browser page. I would like the sub menu to be hidden when the mouse is off the sub menu item.

I have a horizontal CSS menu with a width of 400px. There are four elements each with a width of 100px. The height is 50px (if that matters at all). This whole menu is centered using the <center> tag right outside the <ul> tag which I use to center the menu. The following is the CSS I'm using. It's not fully complete with respect to the images. The problem is that the elements (with a width of 100px) will all line up horizontally as expected in IE, but the fourth element drops off (vertical ~20px vertical shift) in Firefox. I have tried adjusting the width of the <ul> in the CSS and it will bring all the elements on the same horizontal level if I change the width to 500px, but it doesn't center the menu anymore. Is there anyway I could center my menu without the error in Firefox. CSS: #nav {width:400px; list-style:none; overflow:hidden;} #nav ul li {padding: 10px; list-style-type:none; display:inline; /*text-indent: -9999px;*/} #nav a {display:block; float:left; text-decoration:none; outline:none; width:100px; height:35px;background-image: url(MenuBar.gif);} #home {} #home:hover {background-position:0 -100px;} #products #products #history #history #contact #contact #nav a:link {color:blue;} #nav a:hover {color:green;} a {outline:none;} HTML: <td width="80%" id="nav"><center><ul id="nav"> <li><a href="#" id="home">Home</a></li> <li><a href="#" id="product">Products</a></li> <li><a href="#" id="history">History</a></li> <li><a href="#" id="contact">Contact</a></li> </ul></center> </td> [This menu is organized by a large table, hence the 80% width which helps organize the elements of the page] PLEASE Help me.

The trouble is a couple of sections of my site use line-height and vertical-align to center their content. This means that applying a border-bottom: 1px dashed black; to an href has the effect that the underline appears at the bottom of the line height and not directly underneath the link. Is there a way to overcome this? Greetings, I have a class called "header" and I am trying to give it a touch of extra space between it and the next line. All of my headers are just a few words and thus on one line. I tried placing "line-height: 1.5em" in my "header" class and it shows up correctly in Dreamweaver but not in IE. My thought is, because it is only a single line, that class value does not kick in because there is no second line for that class. Is there a way to conrol this in CSS or am I going to have to resort to using a....gulp.....spacer? Thanks in advance! Greetings, I am relatively new to CSS and am using background image bullets. Problem is, in the case of a two line link, the bullet aligns in between the two lines and I need it to align to the top line. Below is the CSS, and attached is a screenshot of the link to better illustrate my predicament. Thanks for any help! li { list-style-type: none; background: url(../images/bullet.gif) no-repeat left; padding: 0 0 0 10px; } I've got two lines of text. Want the spacing the two lines to increase, so I set a line-height. When I do this, not only does it increase space between the two lines, it also increases spacing above the first line (and maybe below the second). How can I increase spacing between the two lines only, without increasing above and below? Thanks! Hi this is my first post. I'm having trouble making a horizontal navbar with a picture background. here is the vertical menu. http://school(dot)timswildwackyemporium(dot)com/NewMouseOver/navtest.html replace (dot)s with period I want to make the buttons next to each other, but with about 10px space in between them. Thanks. WHAT IS THE TYPICAL CSS PROBLEM FOR THIS ISSUE? w w w. jaywayproductions . c o m/portfolio/work_history.html It suppose to look the way it looks in IE. It is a little off in Firefox. I have been try'n several things to solve this particular issue but cannot. It seems as if the bottom and top row stretches and makes the effect I was trying to accomplish look off in FF. You can understand what I'm sayin' when you view both. Does anyone know why it is doing this? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Sorry if i repeat someone else's question, i've actually stumbled upon lots of solutions for this matter, but, as usual, there just seems to be no "only one" solution, so maybe someone here knows. In the good old days if i wanted to center all kinds of stuff, i'd use <div align="center">all kinds of <stuff></stuff></div>. Now i visit the w3c site and see the beautiful "deprecated" word by the "align" property, so i guess they once again need us to bash our heads against the walls with the most stupid invention in mankind: css. So can someone tell me how to center div's content horizontally? And not just text, i mean images, other tables or other kinds of things. If i assume correctly: If i use text-align - this is meant for text only If i use margin: 0 auto - that would align the div itself and not the content and we would need to know its width So is there any normal solution to this? PHP Code: echo "<div class=\"tbody2\">"; echo "<div class=\"client\">Client<div class=\"clientname\">Client Name</div></div>"; echo "</div>"; Using the above code it displays Client on top of Client Name. How do I make Client name appear to the right of Client using only css? I have a menu, click he http://progra.ro/demomenu/ This menu not appear correctly in Internet Explorer 6 due to "SPAN" element. Anyone know how to fix this problem leaving the span element intact in HTML ? All browser show the menu correctly, except IE6.Thanks! How do I create a div with a horizontal overflow? I have a div box which is 150px high and 200px wide. I need it to fill up the height and then overflow to the right so I can scroll it horizontally. The div box contains thumbnail images. www. cooperworkskilns.com The CSS worked well for a vertical navbar, but I haven't gotten it to work horizontally. I added a float:left to see if it would do it. This isn't working in IE. Lol, its created a rather interesting stairstep effect. Is there a way to make it span evenly across the page without adjusting the width of each <li>? Also, for some reason the footer <div> margin isn't working in FF. If you look at IE vs FF, there is much more space above the Copyright line. #navbar ul { margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style-type: none; } #navbar li { margin: 0 0 0 0; } #navbar a { float:left; display: block; text-align:center; color: #000; background-color: #FFF; width: 9em; padding: .2em .8em; text-decoration: none; border-top: 1px solid #fff; border-left: 0px solid #000; border-right: 1px solid #000; border-bottom: 1px solid #000; } #navbar a:hover { background-color: #003366; color: #FFF; border-top: 1px solid #fff; border-left: 0px solid #000; border-right: 1px solid #000; border-bottom: 1px solid #000; } |
