CSS - Collapsing Table Colgroup
Hi all,
I am trying to collapse columns on double click by changing the style visibility of a col class from visible to collapse. Nice idea idea but it is not supported on IE and , although Firefox claims it does, with Firefox doesn't work either. sooo, do you know of any alternative to using the collapse thingie? 'hidden' is not an option as it leaves the space of the column on the table layout. I am checking the display prop now but I am not understanding it very well if it's a solution for me. many thanks in advance. Similar TutorialsEveryone knows about collapsing margins, but not everyone knows that inline blocks never collapse. So it would appear that IE treats tables as block elements (so margins collapse) and firefox treats them as god-knows-what (but akin to inline elements - so they do not collapse). Now, whether its right or wrong, I want the firefox behaviour - so I tried to display the tables as inline. This fixes IE.... but breaks firefox - the tables "loose" their width parameter so they don't display with correct widths. Does any CSS guru know a nice solution to this dilema (I know a couple of dirty solutions). To elaborate further on what is going in: There are a number of tables one after the other in the normal flow of the document that need to be seperated by certain margins. Hi! Is is vicious to display a table as "display: block" to force margin-collapsing? Otherwise there's no margin collapsing with other elements. Thanks So... I have two versions of this page, one that validates, and another that doesn't. Problem is that the invalid one looks correct! This is because I got the css working before i discovered the invalid code... The offending code involves a nested ul in my nav. The invalid, looking good version looks like this: Code: <ul> li / li / <ul> li / li / </ul> li / </ul> To make it valid, I have to wrap li tags around the nested ul. I've spent gobs of time trying to figure out how to get my styles to work with this new code, but I must be missing something very simple. Here are the urls: invalid & valid Here's the css: Code:
#nav {
width:180px;
background-image:url(/images/moraga_logo.png);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
float:left
}
#nav ul.l1 {
width:179px;
position:relative;
top:100px;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
#nav ul.l2 {
width:179px;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
#nav ul.l1 li {
list-style:none;
border-top:1px solid #FFFFFF;
height:21px;
font-family:geometric, lucida, verdana, sans-serif;
font-size:.8125em;
font-weight:normal;
text-transform:uppercase;
letter-spacing:.125em;
text-align:right
}
#nav ul.l2 li {
text-transform:lowercase;
border:none;
font-size:.6875em;
}
#nav li.active a {
color:#A22B38;
text-decoration:none
}
#nav li.active a:hover {
color:#FFFFFF;
text-decoration:none
}
#nav a:link {
color:#000000;
text-decoration:none
}
#nav a:visited {
color:#000000;
text-decoration:none
}
#nav a:hover {
color:#FFFFFF
}
#nav a:active {
color:#000000;
text-decoration:none
}
Thank, in advance, for your generous help! -BBD I thought I had this worked out before with the help of this forum, but it seems to be back again! In IE 6 (and maybe others, who knows. I am running Ubuntu =/ ) there is a big gap between the top horizontal nav and the comic. http://www.jjsunshines.com/ Any help would be greatly appreciated! I'll even trade you php help! Hi I have site where I am forced to set my content div <div id="content"> min-height with jquery on each page.Site Link This is because the content div keeps collapsing and ignoring the content it has. Can someone teach me how to fix this please. the contentWrapper div section collapse prematurely in mozilla, but displays fine in IE. Anyone know why? http://www.mgan.net/work/10-06-04/layout1.html Is there a css rule I don't understand in firefox that IE is overlooking? This is the first site I have attempted to layout using CSS and have ran into a slight problem that I can't figure out so I am looking to the expertise of others. I have a layout that contains a sidebar (used for sub-nav) and a content area all inside of a wrapper. When there is content in the sidebar all is fine in IE and Firefox; however when I include no content in the sidebar IE looks fine but Firefox collapses the space where the sidebar was and begins the content there. Here are some of the links; Appearing correctly due to content in sidebar: http://www.jaycutler.com/Eumyotheria/the_program/the_program_index.html Appearing incorrectly due to no content in sidebar: http://www.jaycutler.com/Eumyotheria/contact/contact.html The CSS file can be found he http://www.jaycutler.com/Eumyotheria/css/stylesheet.css Any advice that can be offered would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time, Brian Hi. Please see the code below. I basically have a two column layout placed inside a container div(id="productDiv"). Each column is floated left, followed by an empty div that is set to clear:both. However, the productDiv collapses over the floated divs in Mozilla. It works as expected in IE. If I place a border on productDiv, it will expand as desired. This seems like buggy behavior for Mozilla. Has anyone ever seen this? Code:

I am just being scripting and have been messing with this problem for several hours and still have gotten no where at all so I was hoping for some assistance. I am attempting to make my stacked links open upon mouseover to display all the sublinks beneath the main ones and then close one the mouse is moved away from that area. I have the main ones working, as that is easy, it is those others that have me stumped. I am using outset and inset boarders to make it appear as if a drawer is being pulled out to reveal the sub-links. Any advice would be great, thank you. Hi, I want to make something that works like this: dhtmlgoodies.com/scripts/slidedown-menu2/slidedown-menu2.html# (cant post proper urls as I'm new) Whereby each link has a number of sub-links under it, and when you click a main link, the sub links for the previous one shut and the new one opens. But the tutorial on that site is not much help. It just gives you a load of code to copy into your editor, and when I've done that it didn't work anyway. Could someone point me in the direction of a tutorial to do this or let me know what I should be doing, as I can't seem to find anything on how to do it. Thanks! Or really in this case their not collapsing like the should be. I have extra white space above each heading link in the gallery: http://www.sonicparke.com/skydev/gallery/ I'm also guessing that the same issue is causing the whitespace above the single column pages across the site like these: http://www.sonicparke.com/skydev/about.php http://www.sonicparke.com/skydev/about.php But it's weird that it's not happening on these: http://www.sonicparke.com/skydev/news.php I know that the zen.css file is a mess but I plan on cleaning it up a little later once I've worked through figuring out what I need and don't need. Maybe that's part of my problem but I'm still having the issue on the single column pages which don't even use the zen.css stylesheet. Thanks for the help. Hi, I have a border around the content of my page which is limited in width but not height. Some of the pages have more content then others so the height adjusts. I also have a left column and a black background with and image in this column but I have 2 problems 1. In IE I can't seem to get this black column(div) to extend to the full height of the column so that it reaches the border. 2. In Firefox this left column extends all the way down the page and the border doesn't surround the text it sort of collapses The column is left floated and in a div and the content is right floated and in a div as well which is all surrounded by a div with a border. I would appreciate any help that you might offer. Thanks I've been looking through many, many forums trying to resolve this issue, so please forgive me if there is a solution to this that I've missed. Here's the deal: On some installs of Firefox (4.0), the body is being positioned 28px lower than the top of the screen. I set the <html> tag to have a light blue background to troubleshoot the issue, and now there is a light blue bar across the top of the page, proving that it is the body of the page that is lower than it should be. I thought it was a Firefox "collapsing margin" issue, so I added "margin:0; to almost everything, and it didn't help. I'm trying to do this without having to absolutely position everything. Here's the site: www-dot-myportlandtours-dot-com here's the css: www-dot-myportlandtours-dot-com/wp-content/themes/myportlandtours/style.css Anybody have insight into this? I have a textarea in a <td>which asks for users for some description. If users enter text and don't use any space or enter, the width of the table gets bigger and bigger and damages the pages design. What can I add (to td.fixed_width css for example )to make the line break after the width of the table is reached??? There is a solution that I put a div in td and then Code: #desc {
width:"100%";
width::fixed;
overflow:scroll;}
but it is not exactly what I want hi every one... How can I display static headers in a table, so that headers remain visible while user scrolls the table body? This is not working in IE 7 any working example please 2. iam having a column which holds data around some 100 to 200 characters... by default i want to display some 50 characters and rest of the characters can be viewed by moving the column... if this is possible let me know how to do it with some sample code......i dont know much about CSS 3. One more problem iam facing is with the number of columns displayed in the table. I have to display around 15 to 20 columns in a table... with this 15 to 20 columns in a table, i can see scrollbar to the page ....but i dont want scrollbar to the page, instead i want want scroll bar to the table (so that it doesnot effect the design of the page) I need a fixed table width and height and also fixed column width and height..... Note: I dont mind if columns are not visible (thru scrool bar i should see the hide columns) Alright, this is probably a simple fix but I can not find the solution anywhere. I'm trying to highlight a table cell with a 2px solid red border when it is clicked. Is there a way to get this to happen with out changing the size of the cell? I hope this makes sense. Basically the cell is expanding by 1 px causing movement in the table. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, Not exactly sure where to post this question... but: I'm having a bit of trouble keeping a table at a fixed height. What I have is a Small 200x80px table above my an input form. As users type data into the input form, javascript code dynamically updates the contents of the table. I have the table width properly fixed, and the input fields have character limitations... however if a user inputs a lot of capital letters or other wide characters, the table automatically increases in height when the text wraps. It's pretty much necessary that the text wraps for the middle lines of the table, and on the other two lines I have used the javascript to remove wrapping, but I never want the table to grow longer than 80px no matter how much is typed in the fields. Is there a way that I can constrain the table height? Thanks in advance! I have a dynamic table that is in the cell of another table. For the life of me I cant get it to stick to the top of the cell. It wants to sit at the midline of it vertically. Thanks for reading. |
