CSS - Ie Messes Up As Usual, Plz Help Me Out

Hi all,
with your great help, the pages looks now almost fine in both IE and FF.
But, the photogallery looks much more better with all the photos bordered, like on this screenshot from FireFox. Unfornutely, when you check it in IE, all the images are messed around in a totally upredictable way (screenshot from IE). It was the same using vertical-align, but it's not so essential.

So, is there please any solution to handle this?
And is there a way how to center floating <div> within his parent <div> ("Unfortunately, there is no easy way to center floated elements." - But is there any way)? The red bordered div is floating, including all the images put in <div>, which are floating too, I'd love center the red bordered <div> inside the green bordered one. To be specific, I don't insist on the red bordered div to be floating, I just looking for a way how to center all the images inside the green bordered <div>.

Here are CSS used: Fotogalerie.css, Web.css.

Webdesign isn't really easy thing to learn , if all would work how it's supposed to work, it'd wonderful, but IE makes it all 3times harder , I really start to not to like him (more than before )

problems with positions divs and images within them ...

when I have a positioned div, and I insert an image, or another div with image inside, it makes the div too high, and not sure how to get it straight.

Code:

	?>
           			<div id="cmp" style="position: absolute; left: <?=$cmp_left*$x_scale+$offx+$leftcolwidth+$xspace  ?>px; top: <?=(($startrow*$y_scale)+($cmp_y)*$y_scale)-$offy ?>px; width: <?=($cmp_right-$cmp_left)*$x_scale+$leftcolwidth+$xspace ?>; height: <?=$y_scale+1 ?>; background-color: <? if( $cmp_row[ $j ] != null ) echo $cmp_row[ $j ]->type->getcolour( -1, $connect );  ?>; border: solid black 1px; z-index:<?=$i ?> " >
           				<div style="position: absolute; left: <?=$cmp_left*$x_scale+$offx+$leftcolwidth+$xspace  ?>px;  width: <?=($cmp_right-$cmp_left)*$x_scale+$leftcolwidth+$xspace-20 ?>; height: <?=$y_scale ?>;" align="left" width="20px" height="<?=$y_scale ?>px">
           					<? if( $cmp_row[ $j ] != null ) echo substr( rtrim( $cmp_row[ $j ]->getName() ), 0, $maxchars  ); ?>
           				</div>
           				<div style="position: absolute; left: <?=$cmp_right*$x_scale+$offx+$leftcolwidth-20  ?>px; width: <?=20 ?>; height: <?=$y_scale ?>; align: right" >
           					<img  src="images/<?=$icon ?>" alt=<?=$alt ?> border="0" <?=$mousey ?>>
           				</div>	
           			</div>
           		
           		<?

the code above has got a bit messy with trying to fix the problem...

Hi guys,

This is another standard "why won't it work in IE"-post. I'm making a multi-column news-style site (<spam>first link in my signature</spam>), and IE screws up the widths. The layout is basically three .col's which are floated left, and a #menu on the right.

Here's the relevant css:

Code:

#menu
{
    float: left;
    margin-left: 0%;
    width: 20%;
    line-height: 120%;
    padding: 2%;
    font-size: larger;
}

.col
{
    float: left;
    width: 24%;
    font-size: 0.8em;
}

.col ul{ 
    list-style-type: none; 
    padding-left: 0;
}


.col .story{
    background: #F5F8ED;
    padding: 0 ;
    margin: 1%;
    border: 1px solid #71804D;
    color: #333;
    text-align: justify;
    
}

Here's some example html:

Code:

<div class="col">
    <ul>
		<li class="story">
            <p class="story_title"> story title </p>
            <div class="story_body">
                <p>blah blah</p>
            </div>
            <div class="sub">
				<p>stuff</p>
			</div>
        </li>
	</ul>
</div>
<div class="col">
    <ul>
		<li class="story">
            <p class="story_title"> story title </p>
            <div class="story_body">
                <p>blah blah</p>
            </div>
            <div class="sub">
				<p>stuff</p>
			</div>
        </li>
	</ul>
</div>
<div class="col">
    <ul>
		<li class="story">
            <p class="story_title"> story title </p>
            <div class="story_body">
                <p>blah blah</p>
            </div>
            <div class="sub">
				<p>stuff</p>
			</div>
        </li>
	</ul>
</div>

<div id="menu">
    <div id="menu_title">
        <h1> title </h1>
    </div>

    <ul id="navbox">
        <li> ... </li>
    </ul>

    ... etc

</div>        

The problem is that IE renders the .col's very narrowly, and has some major space vertically between them. This means that #menu gets pushed down below the .col's. Can anyone point me in the right direction to fix this width issue?

Thanks,
Simon

Hi

I recently moved a site "http://www.nikkilamann.com/index.php" and after moving it the CSS is all messed up (style.css)
The scroll frame box is not centred anymore and the scrollbar is supposed to be white in colour and there is some funny box next to "fashion" on navigation. Site is totally messed up after move.

Does anybody know what could cause this?

[edit] New question, see http://forums.devshed.com/css-help-...tml#post1377956 below for details. Thanks!

--------- old question ------------

Hi, I'm trying to get some checkboxes aligned in a form that i'm creating. I can get it to work perfectly in Firefox, but not in IE6.
In Firefox:

In IE6:

I don't care so much about the height/spacing issue as much as the left/right reversal. the relevant css(i think) is here Code:

#application p {text-indent: 0px;}

#application div.col1 {width: 50%; float: left;}

#application div.col2 {width: 50%; float: right;}

#application label {
  float: left;
  width: 70px;
  text-align: right;
  height: 2em; line-height: 2em;
}

#application .label_checkbox {width: 100%;}

#application .label_checkbox p{
  clear: both;
  float: none;
  position: relative;
}

#application .label_checkbox input {
  position: absolute;
  top: 1px;
  left: 1px;
}

#application .label_checkbox label {
  display: block;
  margin-left: 22px;
  text-align: left;
  width: 160px;
}

and relevant xhtml: Code:

<div class="label_checkbox">
  <div class="col1">
    <p><input type="checkbox" id="ch" value="Classroom Helper" name="roles" /><label for="ch">Classroom Helpers</label></p>
    <p><input type="checkbox" id="lt" value="Literacy Tutor" name="roles" /><label for="lt">Literacy Tutor</label></p>
    <p><input type="checkbox" id="ta" value="Technology Assistant" name="roles" /><label for="ta">Technology Assistant</label></p>
    <p><input type="checkbox" id="ce" value="Campus Enrichment" name="roles" /><label for="ce">Campus Enrichment</label></p>
    <p><input type="checkbox" id="ote" value="One-Time Events" name="roles" /><label for="ote">One-Time Events</label></p>
  </div>
  <div class="col2">
    <p><input type="checkbox" id="frn" value="Family Reading Night" name="roles" /><label for="frn">Family Reading Night</label></p>
    <p><input type="checkbox" id="rad" value="Read Aloud Day" name="roles" /><label for="rad">Read Aloud Day</label></p>
    <p><input type="checkbox" id="dd" value="Dictionary Day" name="roles" /><label for="dd">Dictionary Day</label></p>
    <p><input type="checkbox" id="gs" value="Guest Speaker" name="roles" /><label for="gs">Guest Speaker</label></p>
    <p><input type="checkbox" id="other" value="Other" name="roles" /><label for="other">Other</label></p>
  </div>  
</div>

As per suggestion, I have created a new thread in this forum.
This is a follow on from my thread in the Javascript forum

I have created a table which displays exactly how I want it to.
It displays correctly in IE8, FF3.6, Opera & Chrome.
What I've done is created some Javascript to remove the last column of the table.
When this happens FF and Chrome (untested in Opera) redraws the table with the right edge column of the right-most column as I would hope it would - with the right edge style of the table as it was before the column was removed - in this instance, a solid black border.
IE does not redraw the right border like this - it retains the internal column border, in this instance, a grey dashed cell border.
I was wondering if there was a way to make IE behave?

A demo is available at geostatsireland and it is a .com - the page name is mytable.html

Take a look <link removed... no longer valid>

If you have I.E. and Firefox available... notice the differences... Take a look at the source... I.E. appears to display this "more correctly"... it's certainly more visually appealling. I want the border to go all the way around the calendar in FF (it already does in I.E.), and in FF the first week is messed up (probably has something to do with no information within the divs, but why does it do that?

<edit>I'd also like to fix the gap on the right side between the days and the calendar border, but just making it 15% for the last one doesn't work.</edit>
