Similar TutorialsHi there, I'm back again I'm afriad with another minor problem with my new site design. Have a look at the test version of my website he http://www.eveythingfree.buildtolearn.net/classifieds/ If you are looking at it in Internet Explorer it should look fine, but if you try it in Mozilla Firefox or Netscape it looks badly messed up. The problem is with the 2 boxes near the top of the page, the "latest forum posts" one and the "search box". The whole page (from bellow the navbar) is laid out by the php script that generates most of the content of the site. Thus I am limited in what I can adjust but I can use .css to layout these two boxes. Here is the css that controls the forum and search boxes: Code:
.forums {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
color: #666666;
text-decoration: none;
border: 1px solid #666666;
padding: 5px 10px 10px;
background-color: #F9F9F9;
position: relative;
width: 453px;
height: 100px;
left: 10px;
top: 10px;
vertical-align: top;
margin-bottom: 10px;
float: left;
}
.searchbox {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
color: #666666;
text-decoration: none;
border: 1px solid #666666;
background-color: #F9F9F9;
width: 230px;
height: 100px;
left: 20px;
vertical-align: top;
margin-bottom: 10px;
padding-top: 15px;
top: 10px;
position: relative;
}
.listings {
position: relative;
top: 10px;
}
Now I'm pretty sure that the problem lies with the "float" property in .forums. I seem to recall Mozilla and Netscape don't recognise this in the same way IE does. Is there a way of making the site look the same in other browsers as it does in IE? Without the "float" property I have failed to get it to look right, but there must be some way around this problem. I'd really appreciate any help, as this one thing has been holding me back for ages! Thanks, Robert Hello, I have two errors with the repeat background but i need to use this. How can i get round this? Cheers. Well I'm having a lot of display problems in Netscape and Mozilla when trying to use CSS, but I'll start with a simple question: Should the following not work in Netscape/Mozilla? Code: <div style="border: 2 solid #000000;">test</div> And if that doesn't work, is there another way that is supported? My site looks differentin the browser battle. http://awo.loadedtechnologies.com/ Please have alook at the sourec and help. I.E. Is the one that looks normal. The menu and image on the right are out of whack...WHAT CAN I DO THANK YOU I am using an external CSS where I am defining the color of my links when un-visited, visited etc. The problem is in Netscape 7.1/7.2 those links which are calling my other pages, are being shown up as visited when clicked,. But those where I say href='javascript:void(0);my js function' are not being shown with the correct 'visited' link color. They are being shown in the color specified for 'un-visited' links!! Can someone help?? Just testing this in different browsers and noticed that the image is shown in the background but does not go to the background-position that is specified. This works for IE. Does anyone know if there is a different way of doing this? <STYLE type="text/css"> BODY { background-image:url(awesome.gif); background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:50 220; background-attachment:fixed } </STYLE> Thank you for an insight into this little glitch. Code: <style>
<!--
BODY{
cursor:url("Hand.USA.cur");
}
a, a:hover {
cursor:url("Hand.USA.cur");
}
-->
</style>
I'm using the above code to display an icon that is replacing the default arrow. This only seems to work in Internet Explorer 6+. Would anyone know another way to display an image or icon either through a url (http://www.blah.com/img.jpg) or .cur or .ani that will work in Mozilla, and Netscape ? Thanks, Shawn Hi, I need some help with understanding why netscape is rendering list items differently to IE The Embedded (Dreamweaver-wizard-created) style sheet looks like this: Code: <style type="text/css">
<!--
.bul-mnu-lst {
font-family: "Trebuchet MS", "Andale Mono", "Arial Unicode MS", "Eras Medium ITC", "Microsoft Sans Serif";
font-size: 80%;
line-height: 140%;
color: #666666;
list-style-position: inside;
display: list-item;
font-weight: bold;
vertical-align: text-top;
list-style-image: url(hme_imgs/bullits/dottedArrw_bul.jpg);
list-style-type: none;
}
-->
</style>
the HTML using the sheet looks like this: Code: <div id="activitiesMnu" style="position:absolute; width:218px; height:186px; z-index:1; left: 17px; top: 227px; visibility: visible;">
<p class="bul-mnu-lst"> football</p>
<p class="bul-mnu-lst"> rugby</p>
<p class="bul-mnu-lst"> tennis</p>
<p class="bul-mnu-lst"> badminton</p>
<p class="bul-mnu-lst"> swimming</p>
<p class="bul-mnu-lst"> squash</p>
<p class="bul-mnu-lst"> volley-ball</p>
</div>
The problem is, Netscape based browsers are ignoring the, line-height: attribute or just misinterpreting it and using what looks like double spacing between lines. This is causing the layer to overlap other page items and looks aweful. In I.E, it looks as expected. i've tried changing to percentages instead of pixels for the value as heard percentages are best Also tried, list-style-position from 'outside' to 'inside' values and, list-style-image: to non and used a default preset setting (square) bullet-style. - but the problem persists. any suggs?? Oh, to say I'm gutted is under-rated, I thought I had mastered what is CSS design for one of my sites, that was until I decided to test it at work on FireFox, Netscape and Mozilla. For a start the content isn't in the center of the page, and some of the div's seem to be constrained into the right hand column, not sure why. The page looks perfect in IE. But messed up in the others, I am kicking myself I have left it so late to check. If any very nice person/people can help me sort this out I would be sooo happy, especially if I can understand why it is so messed up. I'm not really that technical, I'm a graphic designer so if you can help, keep it fairly simple please. The link is: http://www.gladiatorszone.co.uk/main_new1.shtml I think it might be a position element wrong or a float? Hi, I was curious to know why only the background shows up in Netscape. In IE this site works good. I had it working on Netscape before but now it doesnt. Thanks The CSS background-position: right; is not working in Firefox/Netscape, and just aligns the background image to the left. Know why? Here is the site I am working on: http://testlableon.ourcampusbookstore.com/index.php There are 3 navigation bars on the template. The first one (navbar) is the black one right under the header. The second one (userbar) is right under the navbar and it is supposed to be light gray (#eeeeee). The third one is the at the bottom of the page (footerbar) and is supposed to have a black (#000000) background. If you look at the site in ie, all the background colors are displayed correctly. If you look at the site in firefox or netscape though, the userbar and footerbar are not having their background colors displayed. Any ideas? CSS 1, Netscape 4.x and background+width issue need workaround: I am working on a website template and converting it to CSS. I have seperated my CSS1 from my CSS 2 sheet and am currently trying to get NN 4.x to do what I have read it won't do and have no idea how to make it do what I want. BTW:Please do not advise me to drop NN 4.x, unfortunately it is not within my power to do so. What I need to do is put a background color on an H1 header that will be only as wide as the table cell (column) it is in. (3 column plus header and footer layout). BTW: I cannot drop the table either. My problem is that when I get the background to work (instead of just surrounding the text) I cannot get it to be liquid and remain inside its cell. When I set the width to %'s it just pushes the other 2 columns out of the way even when the % is not the width of the column. Unfortunately, pixels are not flexible enough for this layout. So, how do I get a background color on an H1 tag that fully expands to the width of the column (not just the text) using CSS 1 and NN 4.x while not destroying the table layout? Thank you for your help- Schach PS: This is not an issue of my code, but an issue of the NN 4.x CSS support. So I do not need to have the code debugged, but instead I need a hack or method to outsmart the browser, so I can duplicate a site in CSS. This site is currently heavily reliant on tables, something we want to change, but can't unless we can reproduce the site in NN 4.x. (You can email me if you would like to do that) Hi, I'm using html:link with a background image. This works fine on IE and Firefox, but the link won't show in Mozilla. Could changes to the css fix this? Does anyone know how to solve this? Regards, Nina http://cwin.redirectme.net/ext/ch/test.html ^ On IE, this works fine, the parent is red as expected, whereas on Mozilla, the parent has a white background. If i have no floats, it works as expected I am new to CSS so bare with me if this is dumb, i have taken my page to the bare minimum trying to diagnose this. Mozilla Firefox does not seem to work with nested divs the way I think it should. IE7 works like a champ. I have a content area (mainpage) with a Vertical Navigation bar nested in it. I would expect the page to have a full background of coatedmetalsm.jpg since the mainpage is set to height: auto; But this only works in IE and Mozilla has no background. Can someone show me the error of my ways? Thanks, Carlos Code:

Hello all, When trying to position:absolute an object within another relatively positioned and left floated in netscape 7.1, for some reason the contained element ignores the parents position:relative property and goes to the top left edge of the body. Try www.signplanning.com in Netscape 7.1 and you will see that compared to I.E. the left-side is pushed up and it should look like the Internet Explorer. Thanks in advanced. BAF I've been trying get a template working to transfer my site over to CSS (I've been reading about it and it seems to be the way to go) - have been working on it all weekend and have cracked a 3 column grid that seems to work well. You can see where I've got to he http://www.discographynetwork.com/nav2.php The only small problem I have in ie is a missing pixel to the left of the home button. If you have a suggestion for that I'd be grateful. However, when I looked at it in Mozilla and Netscape the buttons mess up and the tag line doesn't stay in it's div. Can someone point me in the right direction. Thanks. Hi, i have 2 links with email and website. After visited these two links, both should appear yellow (a:visited). Well, with the IE everything functions marvelously, but with the Netscape only one link (website) functioned, but email does not activate itself yellow after the attendance. Here is the Code: Code:
style type="text/css">
<!--
a:link {color: #000000; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10px; text-decoration:none; }
a:visited {color: #ffff00; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10px; text-decoration:none;}
a:hover {color: #ffcc33; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10px; text-decoration:none;}
p {
font-family: Verdana;
font-size: 12px;
color: #ccffff;
}
body {
background-color: #9095af;
}
.style1 {color: #ccffff; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11px; }
.style2 {color: #ccffff; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 20px; }
.style3 {color: #000000; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; }
.style4 {color: #000000; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10px; }
-->
</style>
if($email) {
