CSS - Ie Problems (first Line Of Block Misaligned)
Hi, Hope someone here can help me, having trouble with IE - there's a surprise! - and block elements, more specifically <p> and <ul>.
As you can see from he http://dvxl.servehttp.com/Sites/Development/InfoCAP/Sites/dynamic/ .. the first line of the top paragraph has a larger line height than the rest, same with the top <li> of the <ul>. The xhtml is empty of styles, and the only styles applied to these elements a Code: #main_content p { margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; color: #306EB1; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 0.7em; text-align: justify; text-justify: newspaper; } #main_content ul li { color: #306EB1; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 0.7em; list-style-type: square; } #main_content li { line-height: 15px; } In Firefox the line heights are consistant, am I missing something? Thanks Similar TutorialsWorking on a project that has listing of physical features of frogs. In one listing, the text in the descriptions are in a block for which the last line extends to the right margin. Here is a sample of what the text looks like: Code: 1. A weak tarsal fold; outer fingers one-third webbed; males having spiny nuptial tuberosities; color in life tan or brown with blotches or reticulations, never green; iris bronze color . . . P. euthysanota group--2 No tarsal fold; outer fingers having only vestige of web; males lacking nuptial tuberosities; color in life green or brown; iris red or golden color . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . P. schmidtorum group--5 My question is how to write the CSS to get only the LAST line of a block of 'justified' text to extend to the right edge. Also, if the user resizes the page, I don't want the right-aligned text to write on top of the left-aligned text. One of the biggest constraints is that it HAS to be done with CSS and not through javascript. Thanks. source: bluewebpages.com/photography/album3/1 i need help setting the thumbnails which have a block display to line up on the same line. i'm using a program called photostack, which is a light-weight photoblog system. when it spits out the code, how would i center the main div containg all thumbnails? i've tried text-align, negative margins(which worked except that the main photo would display ontop of them because the negative margins involved abs positioning) mainly if someone could point me in the right direction on getting block elements on the same line then i'd be set. i can resolve the later issue. thanks, amory EDIT FIXED - need a float: left; try to make a UL into a horizontal nav. i want the a's inside the li's to be display:block, so i need a block element around the outside, but that means they wrap to new lines. What is block without new lines? thanks. Hi guys I was just wondering why cant i see these two <b></b> "blocks" on each side of my <UL> block in ie6 but in Firefox i can? Screenshot of situation: here is my code for the <b> blocks: PHP Code: .navbar b.lefty { display:block; position:absolute; z-index:604; height:100%; width:20px; top:0px; left:-20px; padding:0; margin:0; background-color:#ffffff; } .navbar b.righty { display:block; position:absolute; z-index:604; height:100%; width:20px; top:0px; left:136px; padding:0; margin:0; background-color:#ffffff; } Here is my code for the <UL> block: PHP Code: .navbar :hover ul { z-index:604; width:136px; top:40px; left:0px; padding:0; margin:0; background-color:#333333; text-align:left;} Now here is my HTML: PHP Code: <ul> <b class="lefty">d</b> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> <b class="righty">d</b> </ul> I have a simple list rollover menu, and works fine in all browsers, but in ie the block element is not working as it should. When you rollover the links you have to have the mouse positioned over the text in the block to get it to show as a rollover, if you move to the right of the text (where in other browsers it still shows as a rollover) you lose the rollover effect. I have checked and checked and cannot see why this is happening in ie. Here is my code for the navigation layer. Code: <div id="navigation" style="position:absolute; left:89px; top:303px; width:193px; height:307px; z-index:3; overflow:visible"> <p class="f-lp"><ul> <li><a href="index.html">HOME</a></li> <li><a href="events.html">EVENTS</a></li> <li><a href="news.html">NEWS</a></li> <li><a href="galleries.html">GALLERIES</a></li> <li><a href="timeline.html">TIMELINE</a></li> <li><a href="contact.html">CONTACT INFO</a></li> </ul> <p class="address f-lp">To234JA</p></p> </div> And here is my css code Code: /* navigation */ #navigation { font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 14px; color : #ffffff; border: 1px solid #fff; border-width:0px 0px 1px 1px; } #navigation ul { list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0; } #navigation a { display: block; color: #FFFFFF; width: 178px; padding: 5px 5px 5px 10px; border: 1px solid #fff; border-width:0px 0px 1px 0px; text-decoration: none; } #navigation a:hover { color: #FFFFFF; background-color: #000000; padding: 5px 5px 5px 10px; } /* END OF Navigation */ I have been trying in vain to get div elements on a page to behave how i want them to.

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! I am having two problems with a theme I have for PHPBB3. One problem is the text that you type into textboxes when making a new post, updating your profile, or a few other spots is white on a very light grey background; therefore, hardly showing up. The second problem is that the page display a white line at the bottom of a few pages (but not others) and the line goes away if you resize the IE window smaller, but reappears again if you full screen it. I know the first problem has to exist in the stylesheet.css file; however, I am not sure where to make these changes as I am not familiar with PHPBB stylesheets. If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Forums: Click Here Stylesheet: Click Here Pictures of my problems: Text problem- Line Problem - I'm trying to learn CSS. I've taken great pains to get everything right. My pages all validate and they look correct on Firefox and mostly correct on Chrome. However IE is all over the place. If you view the below pages side by side on Firefox and IE, the following occur (in order of importance): - the top main box is pushed below where the left boxes end - the upper-right drop-down stuff is totally off in the weeds (Chrome also looks like IE) - "Recipes" tab isn't borderless on the bottom edge - left boxes are the wrong size and push "Clear List" out of bounds - search button is off in relation to search box mcrackan.com/recipes/csstest.htm mcrackan.com/recipes/css/default.css (Sorry about the non-links. I'm apparently not allowed to post click-able links yet.) Can anyone point me in the right direction for whatever I'm doing wrong? - Dinah Hello, What's wrong with my logo?

Something happened at the top of the page though; the photo of me used to be closer to the banner jpg and the text Photographs by award winning film sound editor Michael Redbourn used to be to the right of it. There is an image here which might better explain what I mean.. //i43.tinypic.com/347csua.png Page code is here .. //paste.pocoo.org/show/207983/ Second problem is that the menu at the bottom was centered until I added top and bottom margins after which it moved to the left. Thanks for the ongoing help, Mike Hi, I made an intranet webpage using PHP, MySQL, some JavaScript (collapsible 'windows') and CSS. In IE8 it looks like the image on the left. In Firefox 3.6 it looks like the image on the right. The rows are actually separate div elements, with tables inside them; this seemed to be the only way I could get the collapsible animation script to work without error. Without subjecting myself to the humiliating scrutiny of my appalling coding, is there any obvious tip towards making the table on the left appear a little more like the table on the right? The reason why I want to use IE8 to view this page is, in part, to take advantage of its ability to link to folders on the file system - something that Firefox cannot do (at least not without some customizing). I hope that makes sense and, as always, any help appreciated. Do any questions get answered here? How would I get a simple input form to align with a submit button? You can see the problem at: bit.ly/ovFGhR The CSS txt file: bit.ly/nMyP45 My CSS I think is telling the input text box to be a part of the paragraph above and the button sits below, misaligned. Please help!! My form's Submit and Reset buttons are centered and aligned properly in Firefox and Opera, but ,of course, look ridiculous in Internet Exploder 7 - aligned center, but stacked vertically with the Submit button on top of the Reset. My form markup is below - can you tell me how to apply correct CSS to make my buttons behave in IE? If it matters, keep in mind that my form appears in the page's center column. The left column is floated left and the right column is floated right. Code: <div id="directory"> . <ul> <li> <input class=\"submit\" name=\"submitButton\" type=\"submit\" value=\"Let's see 'em\" /> <input class=\"submit\" type=\"reset\" value=\"Clear the Form\" /> </li> </ul> . </div> and here's the applicable styling already in place: #directory fieldset { margin:1.5em 0 0 0; padding:0; } #directory legend { margin:0; padding-left:15px; font-weight:bold; } #directory fieldset ul { list-style-type: none; padding: 1em 1em 0 1em; } #directory fieldset ul li { padding-bottom: 1em; } I am attempting to create a website for a hockey company, however I am at a loss with how to get the effects that I want. I am a novice web designer, and have tried so many different ways of coding this site. Frames, tables, and recently looked up a tutorial on slices in photoshop. My issue is that I am loading everything as an image and I'm afraid that my load time is going to be a lot more than it needs to be. Also, I can't get text and preview images to overlay the background where I want them to. I am trying to use AP elements, but since I have the website centered and the elements are an absolute value, depending on your window size the elements are misplaced. I am open to any and all suggestions as to how I should go about making this website while maintaining the style. I have a feeling I'm not going about this the most efficient way. I tried posting a link to the site but apparently new users can't post URLS?? If you are willing to help me out I'd really appreciate it, let me know how to get you the address. Thanks in advance! Hello all I have a page that uses css for the layout. The issue that I can not figure out how to fix is when someone re-sizes their browser the page content is all resized. How would I lock th positions of each span on the page so even if they resize (smaller) the browser the span's will stay where they are when the page is fully maximized on the users screen? I hope it is clear what I am asking. I tried puttin like a float tag but that does not work at all. Thanks all Jason I am at a total loss on this one. I'm trying to create a simple inline unordered list menu - no problems there - I've done that plenty of times. However, this time I would like my menu to have a border around it instead of being a plain box. As soon as I add the 'border-style:solid' modifier to the div, the text misaligns straight down, roughly 15px lines, out of the box. This happens on Firefox (and apparently on Opera as well, though I haven't checked that one myself). At this point I've stripped the page to bare bones, switched from transitional to strict, tried float vs not, tried margins vs 0 margins, and padding vs 0 padding, relative vs absolute, and attempted to manually shift the text through negative positions as well. No joy. Css: Code: /* Navigation */ #nav { width: 821px; height: 18px; border: 1px; border-style: solid; border-color:red; } #nav ul { } #nav li { display:inline; float:left; background-color:#9E0C0C; text-align:center; color:white; font-family: arial, san-serif; font-size: 14px; font-variant: small-caps; } and page: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" /> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" > <link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen"> </head> <body> <div id="nav"> <ul> <li>Home</li> <li>XXX</li> <li>XXX</li> <li>CCC</li> <li>HHH</li> <li>JJJ</li> <li>kkk</li> <li>KKK</li> </ul> </div> </body> </html> (As I said, I've stripped it to absolutely nothing else.) Any suggestions would be welcome. (ETA: Also tried changing text size in case a too-large font size was making the text 'pop out' of the box. That is also not it.) 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! 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; } |
