Automatically Loading Html File Contents Into A Div	View Content

Solution included in post below --- thanks.

Hi, I am rewriting a series of webpage in CSS. the pages have a two column
layout with a top area which has a banner effect.

What I would like to do is to have the top and the left div's contain the same info on all pages. So instead of manually putting the contents of these
div's in each page I would like to just create the contents in one file
say top.html and left.html and load them in each page by using some sort of link. This would make any changes to the contents easy, edit one file instead of many.

I am CSS newbie so I would be greatful for any pointers.

Thanks,
R Haynes

Part Of Css File Is Not Loading - Sometimes

Similar Tutorials

View Content

On my website I've a few CSS files that I call. Occasionally a page will load and some text won't properly format... It will be too big. I'll refresh and it will go back to the size it's supposed to be. It's not all the text, just here or there.

I've tried this on multiple computers and multiple browsers and it still happens only once in a while.

Anyone know what is going on? Is there any way to diagnose this? It SEEMS as if part of the file isn't loading, but that doesn't sound right.

Problem Loading Image From Css File

Hi,

I have a problem when trying to load an image (as background) from a css file.

My scenario is as follows; I have a css file named default.css under the folder root/css/. Then I have page1.html, page2.html and page2.1.html under the root/, root/page2/, and root/page2/page2.1/ folders respectively.

My css is as follows: Code:

body {
	background-image: url('../images/bg.GIF');
}

My problem is this. The background image is loaded correctly when visiting page1.html and page2.html however when I visit page2.1.html I can not view the background image.

Is this problem because ../images/bg.GIF is not accessable from root/page2/page2.1/ ? (even though the css file is always at root/css/) or?

I have attached the example just in case my above explanation was not clear enough. What I would like to achieve is have the same background image loaded on each page.

Changing Css Properties In Html File

Similar Tutorials

i have a question about changing css color properties for css that i have defined in the html file.

so at the top of my html in the header i have say:

body{background-color: #FFFFFF;margin: 15px;}

or

.globalBorder{background-color: #F2F7FF;}

and for example, the .globalBorder is assigned in the html like this:

<td class="globalBorder">

my question is, can i call a javascript function that can access these css classes and change their color properties so that the colors of the elements that use these css classes will be updated?

or do i have to assign ids to the elements in the html and dynamically assign them a new css style to change the color?

thanks

Anyone Know How To Get Sidebars To Resize Automatically?

Similar Tutorials

View Content

Hello, so basically I've got these side bar graphic things I want to put on the edges of my main content table to make it look nice. The problem is I can't seem to figure out how to make them resize their height automatically depending on the length of the main content table, which is slightly different on every page.

Since URLs are blocked I guess I have no choice but to just include the code here, ugh.

Code:

...
<div id="page-container">

<div id="headerer">
</div>

	
	<div id="header">
		
	</div>

    <div id="navpanel">

     <div id="panelbottom">

        <img src="images/interface/bottommiddle.jpg" width="300" height="28" />    </div>

Anyway, the two images, "panel left", and "panel right" (contained in the DIVs "sidebar-a" and "sidebar-b", respectively) go wayyy down, as their native resolution is very large and I was initially hoping to simply be able to scale them down to to match the height of the main content page

The CSS file is as follows:

Code:

...

#page-container {
	width: 800px;
	margin: auto;
	text-align: left;
}

/* Main Navigation */

#tvbg {
background:url(../images/interface/navtvlonger.jpg)
}
#main-nav { 
	padding-top: 50px;
	margin-left: 32px;
	height: 356px;
	width: 150px;
	
}


#header {
	height: 188px;
	background: #696969
		url(../images/interface/episodesheader.jpg);
		width: 530px;
		float: right;
}



#sidebar-a {
	float: left;
	width: 28px;
}


#sidebar-b {
	float: right;
	margin-left: 155px;
	width: 17px;
}


#navpanel {
	float: left;
}
#content {
	
	margin-right: 17px;
	margin-left: 268px;
	line-height: 18px;
	background: #696969;
}

#content .padding {
	padding: 25px;
}

Contents Of Right <div> Disappearing

Hello,

I've been working on a site http://www.chequedelarealidad.org, and have recently experienced a problem with the 'links' page.

Initially, the page appears as normal, but if I tab between windows to another program and then return to this page, the contects on the right hand side become invisible.

I have validated the code using the W3C validator. Am not sure what the problem could be. Has anyone experienced anything similar to this? Or have a solution for me.

Plugin For Firefox That Automatically Calculates Px To Em?

Similar Tutorials

View Content

Hi all

For accessibility reasons I use "em" in my CSS instead of "px", "pt" etc., so the users of all general browsers can scale my websites.

But during implementing the page I use "px" because it's easier and I don't have to calculate the relative "em" values all the time. As soon as I finish the implementation process, I go over all the "px" values and calculate the to "em" values.

Now my question: is there maybe a Firefox plugin that helps me doing this? Sometimes it's annoying to find out the font-size of the parent element so I can calculate the correct "em" value...
A tool like the "Layout" view of the Firebug plugin which would display everything in "em" instead of "px" would be great... anyone knows such a thingie? :-)

Thanks a lot for help,

Getting Div Contents To Wrap Sooner?

Similar Tutorials

View Content

Hi there!

Okay, I'm working on some CSS for a page that is heavily javascript-based, it's a simple search-utility I'm fooling around with for university coursework and simply loads some amazon results, and finds related eBay results for each one.

You can find the tool here (ignore any certificate warnings, I wouldn't recommend firing your credit-card details onto my site anyway =):
https://devweb2008.cis.strath.ac.uk/~isimms/MashUp/

It currently only works properly in FireFox 3 or Safari 4 (preferred), and kind of in Google Chrome. I don't care much about this just now so use one of the first-two if you do visit the page!

Now, once you enter a search (my typical one is "USB"), you'll get a list, on the left is the amazon image, and to the right of that is a "loading" div which will expand with some eBay results. Now, the problem I'm having is that if you shrink the window (or later on if more results are added) then the eBay box will wrap so that it is underneath the amazon image, before the results within the ebay box start wrapping. What I would like to do instead is have the eBay results wrap within their box, so the box stays to the right of the amazon image, while stretching downwards as required.

I can't think of any way to do this though without specifying a width which of course isn't something I want to do as the amazon image is a fixed size (otherwise it won't remain square), while the rest of the page is variable-width.

Anyone know what I'm getting at here and have any ideas how this could be done?

Div Not Extending Though Contents Expand

I have a div that has a table inside of it. Even though the table expands with content added, the div does not.

It's important to me that the div extend with the table because this div in question has a background shadow border for the table.

Here is the CSS:

Code:

#right {
  float: right;
  width: 80%;
  height: 100%;
}

#rt_brdr {
 height: 100%;
 width: 100%;
 padding-bottom:5px;
 padding-right: 10px;
 margin-bottom: 5px;
 vertical-align: bottom;
 background: url(img/r_brdr.gif) repeat-y right;
}

My HTML:

Code:

<div id="right">
   <div id="rt_brdr">
    <table border="0" align="left" width="100%" style="height: 93%; margin-top: 2px;"  cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
       <tr>
         <td class="top" style="background: url(img/w_tl.jpg) no-repeat top left #FFFFFF;"></td>
         <td class="white_fill"></td>
         <td class="top" style="background: url(img/w_tr.jpg) no-repeat top right #FFFFFF;"></td>
       </tr>
       <tr class="white_fill">
         <td></td>
         <td></td>
         <td></td>
       </tr>
       <tr>
         <td class="bottom" style="background: url(img/w_bl.jpg) no-repeat bottom left #FFFFFF;"></td>
         <td class="white_fill"></td>
         <td class="bottom" style="background: url(img/w_br.jpg) no-repeat bottom right #FFFFFF;"></td>
      </tr>
    </table>
  </div>
  </div>

I have attached a screenshot. Note that I took the content out of the table in the post so that the code doesn't extend forever. I have put a black border around the right border to make it stand out in the screenshot.

Getting White Background To Be As Tall As The Contents

Hello, I have a container div with an id of "outer". This container holds 3 column divs, leftcolumn, rightcolumn and centercolumn.

The container CSS looks like this: Code:

#outer{
    padding:0px;
	margin-left:auto;
	margin-right:auto;
	width:755px;
	background-color:#FFFFFF;
	height:100%;
    z-index:1;
	background-image: url(images/common/whitebox.gif);
    background-repeat:repeat-y;
}

But for some reason, the container doesn't extend down to the length of the inner divs. Each column will vary in the future because everything is pulled from a database. Yet you can see the issue he http://www.caillouette.com/FriendsPHP2/index.php

Any help, tips or tricks are appreciated.

I can't seem to get the content container and background div to resize with content inside the "content" div. And also, I can't get the footer image for the content container (bottom of the color w/ rounded edges) to float to the bottom of the container.

Here is the page in question: http://srh.com/taxgirl/

There are 3 style sheets used so far (as this is a complex website and I want some parts to show on all pages and others to only show on certain pages.

Here are the CSS links:

<div class="contentcontainterfooter" id="contentcontainterfooter"><img src="images2/required/layout/content_bottom.png" width="760" height="15"></div>

The text I threw in the DIV is just sample text so please disregard any unlisted or unused class tags, etc. This text will be removed after the issue is solved.

If anyone could help I would be forever greatful

Please take a look and let me know if you have any advice.

Thanks you so--o much!

ps. This is a side concern, but if anyone knows how to make a png background compatable with IE, please do tell. This isn't too big of a concern for me because if I need to I can just use a gif, but if you know, the knowledge would be welcome and thanked for

Getting A Container To Extend To The Bottom Of Its Contents!

Hi guys,

I'm having a real problem with CSS on this page.

The page views fine in IE, but in firefox I cannot get the green box (div id=maincontent) to extend down to the bottom of the black box... as you can see the black box simply flows out. The green box is extending down to the bottom of the white box, but it stops there. Can anyone think of any obvious ways to fix this?

I tried placing a clear:both div at the bottom of main content (which is the red bar you can see) , but that too only actually clears the white box, not the black one.

Here's the main bits of css...

   font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;   
   padding:5px;       
}

#translucentbkg {
	color:#FFFFFF;
	font-size:12px;
   width: 566px; 
   background-color:#FFFFFF ;
   filter:alpha(opacity=80);
   -moz-opacity:0.8;
   opacity: 0.8;
	padding:5px;
	text-align:left;
	font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}

#opaquetext 
{
color:#006600;
font-size:12px;
   width: 566px;     
   background-color: transparent;    
   position:absolute;       
   z-index: 2;    
   padding:5px;         
   text-align:left;
   font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}

basically left and right sit inside maincontent, then opaquetext and translucentbkg sit inside left, whilst opaqueblack and translucentblack sit inside right! phew

The reason for opaque and translucent divs is that I'm using mozilla's tip here http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Useful_CSS_tips:Color_and_Background

mirroring content and positioning one div over another to get semi transparent backgrounds.

Hope that all made sense... any help would be incredible!!!

thanks!

Contents Of 3rd Floated Column Do Not Show Up In Ie6

I'm trying to change one of my sites from a good ol' table based layout to a CSS / XHTML one but I'm having a (first) problem with a the layout I started from a "template" I took from he

http://www.fu2k.org/alex/css/layout..._NN4_FMFM.mhtml

Here's what I'm talking about:

http://www.link7.ro/misc/cssd/test1.html

Basically I have a 3 (faux-)column layout with 3 floated divs. The first and second columns are put in a separate container float and the third column is floated next to this container. Everything was alright while developing in Firefox but then I checked in IE 6 and there it was: the surprise! The contents of the third column were not showing up. I think it's there though, because it's taking up space under the other elements... But it's somehow invisible. I tried fiddling with the contained div's width and I noticed that if I reduce it by ~5 pixels the content shows up in IE but it's misaligned to the right and I don't understand why because if I set the third column's background to be visible there's clearly a gap on the left even if I set all margins and paddings to 0.

Sorry about the mess in the code, I know half the comments are in English (kept from the original template) half are in Romanian. It's actually a draft, I haven't had time to clean it up yet.

Please suggest fixes or alternate templates I could start out from. I would like the column order in the source to be [main column], [side column 1], [side column 2]. The order of the side columns doesn't really matter but I would like my main column to come first.

Thanks!
