CSS - Space Around Elements

Hello,
I have the following css
css Code:
Original - css Code ul#menulist{ position:relative; top:0px; list-style-type:none; margin:0; padding:0; } ul#menulist li{ background-color:#717100; display:inline; margin:0; padding:0 10px; border:0; height:30px; } ul#menulist li a{ text-decoration:none; margin:0; padding:0; border:0; }

  

  


 ul#menulist{


     position:relative;


     top:0px;


     list-style-type:none;


     margin:0;


     padding:0;


 }


  


 ul#menulist li{


     background-color:#717100;


     display:inline;


     margin:0;


     padding:0 10px;


     border:0;


     height:30px;


 }


  


 ul#menulist li a{


     text-decoration:none;


     margin:0;


     padding:0;


     border:0;


 } 

A gap is appearing between <li> elements in Opera and FF but not in IE. You can check it here
Which is the correct behaviour? How do I remove the gaps between <li> elements in a valid way.
Thank you.

I'm currently customizing a theme for a Drupal site and am having a bit of an issue with background images on some content.

I have 1 class and an HTML element that I'm trying to apply the style to. I have a non-repeating background applied to the title class which is positioned to the left of the area. The second is a background I'm attempting to tile across the x-axis of the h2 element. This second background does not show while the first one is showing.

Is there a way around this? I'm assuming that because it's the same element, I won't be able to get away with this and will have to find another solution.

Here is my HTML
Code:

<h2 class="title"><a href="/drupal/node/1">Welcome to the Caustic Guild!</a></h2> 

CSS
Code:

#mcol .title {
  background: url(/drupal/themes/caustic/images/icon_post.gif) no-repeat 0px 2px;
}

#mcol h2{
  background: url(/drupal/themes/caustic/images/mcol_head.jpg) repeat-x;
  margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
  padding:  2px 0px 6px 35px;
  font-size: 180%;
  letter-spacing: -1px;
  text-align: left;
  border: 3px solid #78788a;
}

I don't know if that is what one would call this topic...but I'm having a lot of trouble understanding "referencing elements" in CSS.

for example what is the difference between:
Code:

ul li { } 

and
Code:

li ul{ } 

Or let's say I have:
Code:

<div id="bottom">
 <a id="copy" href="http://www.whatever.com">Whatever</a><br>
 <a class="credits" href="http://www.anothersite.com">Another Site</a><br>
 Some other random text
</div>

What is the CSS to reference the link with id="copy"? or the link with class="credits"?

Many menus use nested <ul>s and <li>s and have IDs or classes for them as well. I'm very confused as to the syntax to reference an <li> in a <ul> as opposed to a <ul> in an <li>.

Anyone have links to some documentation on this?

Hi,
here's what i'm looking to do;
i have a css style set for <ul> and <li> elements. Is there a way to bypass the styles for certain lists?

Thank you in advance.

I am new to css and just had a quick question. (please forgive me for any invalid lingo... hopefully you can make sense of my question)

I am creating a dynamic calendar of events page, the calendar will be built using a table. If I put "table.calendar" in my style sheet to format the overall table, and I have th.calendar, td.calendar, do I have to add the "class" property to th or td, or will they automatically be in the calendar class because they are part of the table.

For example...
Do I do this?
Code:

<table class="calendar">
<tr><th></th></tr>
<tr><td></td></tr>
</table>

Or this?
Code:

<table class="calendar">
<tr><th class="calendar"></th></tr>
<tr><td class="calendar"></td></tr>
</table>

I'm trying to align an image, header, and some text that is right aligned all on the same row. I've been reading so much about inline and block elements that my head feels like it's going to explode. It would look like this:

Code:

Picture - Header                                         Text over here

I'm not sure if everything should be span inside one class or what. I'm very confused. Please help a noob.

Firstly, I'd like to say that I've been browsing this forum for a while now, as well as sites such as w3schools, and I've found it all to be very helpful. But now I have a situation that I haven't been able to solve on my own.

Essentially, I want to make a clear and simple CSS-based layout that will work across browsers and platforms. I use a Mac myself, and it's difficult for me to check for problems with Internet Explorer. The problem I'm currently having concerns layout and positioning.

Here's a link to the splash page I'm working on for a student organization: http://individual.utoronto.ca/ghp/fasu2006/

Before I make the full site I want to work out layout troubles I've been having.

I got on a PC and the text when viewed with IE did not seem to properly align within the opaque white box I made for it. I've been feeling a little overwhelmed with concepts of absolute vs. relative positioning, unit values such as percents, px, em, and making use of things like padding, margins etc. and I'm hoping I can get some advice.

So in one sentence, here is my question: How can I position elements (text, divs, images, anything) on the screen using CSS in an efficient way that will produce a similar result in different browsers?

Here is the code that I think is relevant:

Code:

p {font-size: .75em; font-weight: bold; margin-left: 12em;
		margin-top: 8em;}

	#content {margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;
		margin-right: auto; margin-left: 3em;
		width: 800px; padding: 20px;
		background: transparent;}

	#overlayback {position: absolute; top: 8em;
		left: 15em; width: 250px; height: 250px;
		z-index: 0;
		filter: alpha(opacity=80); opacity: .80;
		background: #FFF;}

	#overlaytext {position: absolute; top: 3em;
		left: 15em; z-index: 1;}
		
	h1 {font-size: 6em; margin-left: .1em;
		margin-top: .75em;}

	h2 {font-size: 1em; font-weight: normal;
		margin-left: 9em; margin-top: -4.5em}
</style>
</head>
<body>
	<div id="content"><img src="images/tower.gif" width="297" height="422" alt="tower">
		<div id="overlayback"></div>
		<div id="overlaytext"><h1>fasu</h1>
		<h2>2006-2007</h2>
		<p>coming soon</p></div>
	</div>

I hope I've been clear and thanks in advance for any advice. It's very much appreciated.

Hi,

q)I have a horizontal menu of 4 text buttons on top on screen and another bit of text on the left of it . I have a text element on far left and 4 text elements on far right . The whole section is in a div tag which displays it in a horizontal bar of 10% height.

To place the text elements of far right I use float but this displays it on line below where i want it. I want text on far left and menu on far right (no spaces between each link) all in the same line.

Code:

#t1 a {font-size:10px;
	font-family:verdana;
	font-weight:bold;
	border:1px outset aqua;
	background-color:aqua;
	color:#000000;
	text-decoration:none;
	display:inline;
	width:15%
	word-spacing: 0;



}
...
<div id="t1">


 This is the 
place where the logo goes

 <a href="#">Java Script</font></a>
<a href="#">Dynamic HTML</font></a>      
  <a href="#">Java Script</font></a>
<a href="#">Dynamic HTML</font></a>  
</div>

I'm floating an image left and on the right, I'm placing a tabbed menu. FF lines the menu at the top-right corner, IE lines it up at the bottom-right(which is correct). I've tried margin, padding, vertical-align, but nothing will pull that menu down without severely affecting IE. Any suggestions?

Hi All,

Still working on a site for a friend.

www dot helenstow-cpsychol.co.uk/faqs dot html

On this page, I want the scrolling '#content1' box to be about 200-250 pixels longer, but in making it longer it overlaps vertically with other elements on the page ('#nav1' etc) and displaces them.

The way elements are placed relative to each other was designed by someone very kind on another forum. I find it quite confusing to be honest (Im a total newb.) and was wondering if this is the best way to do this or if there is a way of aligning elements by just specifying where on the page they should be without necessarily affecting the position of other elements? (Is this possible using z-index?)

If this is possible, how might I go about it and is it a good or bad idea? (the guy who helped me previously appeared to be pretty smart, so I'm guessing there's a reason he laid things out the way he did)

Here is my CSS:

I'd also like to be able to move '#content1' down about 10 pixels from the top of the page (but when I add 10 pixels to the 'margin-top' it moves the background image for '#container1' down with it!?

I would be incredibly grateful for any and all help.

My very best wishes,

Tom

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?

Hi everyone

Hoping someone can help with a niggly problem. My site is working great in Mozilla but I'm getting a gap between two divs in IE6 and Opera 7. Compare the following in IE6, Opera 7 and Mozilla and see the gap below both the 'welcome' and 'latest' graphics:

http://www.crashingbydesign.com.au/newsite/

The relevant code is as follows:

Code:

<div id="content_container">
  <div id="belowbg">
    <div id="left"> 
       <div id="h3lft"> 
          <h3>Welcome</h3>
       </div>
       <div id="contentlft">
	<p>Lorem ipsum ...</p>
       </div>
       <div id="footlft"></div>
     </div>
     <div id="right"> 
       <div id="h3rght"> 
          <h3>Latest</h3>
        </div>
	<div id="contentrght">
				<p>Lorem ipsum ...</p>

	<div id="footrght"></div>
     </div>
   </div>
   <div id="footer"> 
      <p>text</p>
    </div>
</div>

The relevant CSS is as follows:

Code:

#content_container {

	left: 50%;
	margin: 0 0 0 -372px;

	background: url(images/btmhatlines.gif) right no-repeat;
	font-size: 1.1em;
	line-height: 1.6;
	text-align: center;
}

Can anyone see my mistake?

I am definitely a novice in web design and CSS, so I hope I can tap into the collective knowledge of the more seasoned individuals on this board. Essentially, the website I created (http://www.wacwineclub.com) looks fine in Firefox, but some of the elements are shifted to the left in IE (Such as the menu and horizontal rule). For the life of me, I cannot figure out what is wrong. Any ideas? My code for the index and CSS files are as follows:

INDEX.PHP<?
Code:

session_start();
?>

Hi everyone -- first post here in the forums. I hope I can get some pointers on how to get my page to display correctly in IE.

I have 2 div tags at the top of my page that are built sorta like this:

Code:

<div>
   <ul>
     <li>
       some thing (images in my case, and a search bar)
     </li>
   </ul>
</div>

My css for these elements has "list-style:none;" -- and this works great in modern browsers like firefox, chrome, safari, opera... but the old dinosaur which 30% of my visitors still use doesn't handle this all right. See, I am displaying these list elements in a single horizontal row, but IE wants them in a single vertical column. UGH.

I have a post with a screen shot from firefox and IE at this link:

http://corneveaux.com/blog/new-animated-banner-and-internet-explorer-sucks

So, I am sure its something I have done wrong -- but I cannot get my arms around the problem with firebug or IE developer tool bar. I am a total CSS newb here, so any tips much appreciated. Oh, and I checked and indeed my CSS validates.

Thanks everyone!

I have a header set up as a div. Inside the header are three elements: #logo, #picture and #contact_info. #logo and #picture are images (image tags in the "html") and #contact_info is a div.

I want #logo to float to the left (no problem), #picture to float to the right (problem), and #contact_info to be flush against #picture's left side. How might I accomplish this? Nothing is positioning correctly except #logo.

the (pertinent) css is:
Code:

#main {
	width: 875px;
	background-color: #FFCC77;
	border-style: inset;
	border: 2px solid #008080;
	margin-left: auto;
	margin-right: auto;
	
	}

#header {
width: 875px;
height: 177px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
background:url("gradient2.jpg") repeat-x;
border: 2px solid #008080;

}

#logo { 
	width:300px;
	height:155px;
	float: left;
	} 

#contact_info { 
		color: #800080;
		font-variant: small-caps;
		font-family: sans-serif;
		font-weight: 500;
		font-size: 14px;
		padding-top:0px;
		padding-right:10px;
		float: right;
		}

#picture {
	width: 160px;
	height: 139;
	margin: 10 10 10 10px;
	}

The html is:
Code:

<body>

<div id="header">
			
			<img src="Styles/redonelogo.jpg">
			
			<img src="Styles/picture.jpg">
