Hey guys,

I've got a two column layout, and I want both columns to be the same height inside the wrapper. Ussually when I do this sort of thing I have a repeating background image or something so it makes it appear they are both the same height, except this template is using rounded corners, so a repeating background won't work.

Code:

#wrapper{
	width:962px;
	margin: 25px auto;
}
#mainContent{
	width:735px;
	background-color: #F4FEFE;
	padding:0px;
	border:0px;
	float:left;
}
#rightColumn{
	background-color: #F4FEFE;
	width:207px;
	height:100%;
	min-height:100%;
	float:left;
	margin-left:20px;
}

Click here to see what I'm talking about... I want that right column to match the height of the main content div.

Would this only be possible using JavaScript or is there a CSS solution?

I think that this is something really basic but I just haven't been able to put my finger on the problem. Can someone please point me in the right direction?

In IE 6 the cell background (as defined in CSS) or the table cell size is not correct, but it looks fine in FF.

Hi all,

I have a site where I have several divs that stack on top of each other for layout purposes and they fill the entire width of the screen.

In the div that contains the content, I'm finding a rare case where a table appears that's so wide, it is off the edge of the content element.

I wanted to do overflow:auto so that it wouldn't mess up the layout but the customer wants the layout to expand with the content.

Since all these divs sit on top of each, they aren't really interacting with the div that has the content in it. Is the only way to make those expand to use JavaScript to detect the width and adjust on the fly or is there a better way to do it?

I'll be happy to supply some code if you all need me to but its a lot so I'll hold off on that for now.

Hi there

I have a container DIV that nests 4 DIVs one on top of the next (logo, navigation, content and footer, all the same widths).

If there is a single paragraph (or small amount) of text in the content DIV of the page, the page looks fine.

However, if there is a large amount of text in the content DIV of the page, the width gets pushed out slightly. IE5 is fine. Firefox and Opera are the problem.

Note: I have left the height of the content DIV blank as it will be of varied size. When I set a height of say, 500px, the page looks fine (but because a background colour is needed for the DIV, it doesn't appear as I intended it to).

Any ideas to why this is happening?

Thanks in advance :-)

-Solange.

ive been at this for a while now. i have a navleft.gif, navbody.gif, and navright.gif.

what i want to do is make an expandable nav bar with the body repeating on the x axis. every attempt ive made doesnt work. im still fairly new to css.

should i have a <div id="nav"> and within this div put a another div with id=navleft and another with navright? no idea how to go about this. any help would be appreciated.

Hello.

Trying to construct a page with vertical expansion on both of two nested DIVs. Left column is primarily text which varies in length. Right column is a navigation/contact panel that is mostly fixed height, but want ability to drop in objects and expand vertically on some pages.

I have tried to background image in container DIV, but I am still getting the content breaking out of the bottom of the DIV. Any other approaches? Min-height (could not get that to work either). Ideally I would like for these to have the same height. Not shading, so it doesn't need to be exact.

Here's a sample of code (w/o all the junk).

I have started creating a new DIV layout for my website but can't seem to get it to function correctly. I finally got the DIVs to expand with whatever content is in them, but now they will only span to the height of the window and hide the rest of the content instead of expanding further and just making the IE window scroll. Maybe one of you guys can help me out? Here is the test page:

well apparently I can't post the url, so I guess I'll just "say" it.

Hi, I am trying to make a website for a friend that scales to fit most monitors. The website is very image heavy and I have a navigation bar on the left side that lines up with the background on the right. I haven't made a webpage for awhile so I don't know a lot about CSS.

This is what I have so far. It almost works, but the background on the right will not expand to fit the full div, only goes up to the content that I put inside the Div. The background also doesn't appear to shrink when I scale the window size.

HTML CODE:
Code:

<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css"/>

<title>Test Page</title>
</head>

<body>

<div id="sample-container" align="center">


<div id="header"> <img src="images/header.jpg" width="1647" height="147" / id="headerbar"></div>

<div id="nav"> <img src="images/navbar.jpg" width="413" height="776" / id="navbar"></div>

<div id="content"> <img src="../../../Pictures/Misc/101_0138.JPG" width="527" height="428" />
</div>

<div id="footer"></div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

CSS CODE:
Code:

#header
{
	height: auto;
	background-color: #666;
}
#nav
{
	float: left;
	width: 25%;
	height: auto;
	background-color: #999;
	margin-bottom: 10px;
}
#content
{
	float: left;
	width: 75%;
	height: auto;
	background: url(images/mountain.jpg);
	background-repeat: no-repeat;
	margin-bottom: 10px;
}
#footer
{
	clear: both;
	height: 50px;
	background-color: #666;
	margin-bottom: 10px;
}
#headerbar
{
	height:auto;
	width:100%;
}
#navbar
{
	height:auto;
	width:100%;
}

If anyone knows a way to expand the background to fill the div and scale down when the div scales is size, that would be great.
I was also thinking that maybe I could put the the navigation bar and the background image on the page and not as an background. Put those both in a div and have a floating div on the right aligned over the top of the background that contains the page content. If anyone could give any help with a solution it would be appreciated. Thanks.

hi,

Im making a site, and i decided to use CSS instead of tables. I have used basic CSS before, but it gets abit harder when i start making boxes etc.

Here is my code so far -

layout.css - (one that gets included on each page)

Code:

@import "style.css";
	
body {
	margin:10px 10px 0px 10px;
	padding:0px;
}
	
#leftcontent {
	position: absolute;
	left:10px;
	top:50px;
	width:200px;
	background:#fff;
	border:1px solid #000;
}

#centercontent {
	
	background:#fff;
 		margin-left: 199px;
 		margin-right:199px;
	border:1px solid #000;		
	voice-family: "\"}\"";
	voice-family: inherit;
  	margin-left: 201px;
  	margin-right:201px;
}

#shoutbox {
	position: absolute;
	right:10px;
	top:50px;
	width:200px;
	background:#fff;
	border:1px solid #000;
}

#rightcontent {
	position: absolute;
	right:10px;
	top:50px;
	width:200px;
	background:#fff;
	border:1px solid #000;
}
	
#banner, #footer {
  background:#fff;
	height:40px;
	border-top:1px solid #000;
	border-left:1px solid #000;
	border-right:1px solid #000;
	voice-family: "\"}\"";
	voice-family: inherit;
	height:39px;
}

#footer {
  background:#fff;
	height:40px;
	border-bottom:1px solid #000;
	border-left:1px solid #000;
	border-right:1px solid #000;
	voice-family: "\"}\"";
	voice-family: inherit;
	height:39px;
}

#banner h1 {
	font-size:16px;
	padding:10px 10px 0px 10px;
	margin:0px;
}
	
#shoutbox, #rightcontent p {
	font-size:10px
}

style.css - text formatting etc.

Code:

body {
	font:	12px/1.2 Tahoma;
	background:#ddd;
	padding:0px;
	margin:0px;
}
	
a {
	text-decoration:none;
	font-weight:bold;
	color:#c00;
}
	
pre {
	font-size:11px;
	color:blue;
}
	
ol {
	margin-right:40px;
}
li {
	margin-bottom:10px;
}

p,h1,pre {
	margin:0px 10px 10px 10px;
}
		
h1 {
	font-size:14px;
	padding-top:10px;
}

it produces a good layout, with a header, 3 coloums and a footer. whoever, the boxes expand at different rates and the footer doesnt move down. the header also doesnt expand. i know how i can fix this, but i dont know how to fix it without making it so that its locked at a resolution. i would like the site to exapand as the window is made larger.

here is an image of what i get -



and this is what i am aiming to acheive -



as you can see, i want all the boxes to be the same length, which is defined by the size of the largest box. also, i want to create 2 or more boxes on the left, only the bottom of which gets made longer. on the first image you cannot see the extra box because it is covered by the other one :-/

i would be greatful for any help you guys can provide me

thanks,

dynamyt

Alright, I am new to these forums since the other handful I have went through could not help me out.

Here is my situation, I have a layout I am creating for a final project, and I have it set up so that the navigation is in a left column and the content for the actual page is in a right column, right. Both are right next to eachother which you can see below in this image:



http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/...sitebug5la1.png



My issue is that once the content within the Right Column expands beyond the browser and creates a scroll bar, the left column no longer expands it's background image to match up.

All containers and elements have their height set to 100% that are involved.

Any help is much appreciated.

Ok, Im somewhat of a newb when it comes to CSS so forgive me if any of thise doesnt make sense.

Im writing a page that has 3 sections, a top-menu section, a middle dynamic section and a bottom static section.

Ive elected to use layers to display content in the middle section based on a mouseclick in the top section.

To do this Ive made used of a script that encloses the dynamic section in a div, with subsequent nested divs set to visibility: none until they are called to be displayed.

The issue that I am having is I am trying to position the bottom static section, that should always remain visible, below the middle section depending on the height of the midle section.

Essentially the bottom section should move vertically as the size of the midle section changes sizes.

The style that Im using is:

Code:

<style type="text/css">
#container { position:relative; width:495; height: 400px; z-index:100 }
.lyr { position:absolute; visibility:hidden; left:0; top:0; z-index:1 }
.layer {  }

</style>

This is an example of the code in the body:

Code:

<a href="#" onClick="swapLayers('lyr0'); return false"><font>Click to return to the Welcome Text</font></a><br />
<a href="#" onClick="swapLayers('lyr1'); return false"><font>Click to return to the Welcome Text</font></a><br />
<a href="#" onClick="swapLayers('lyr2'); return false"><font>Click to return to the Welcome Text</font></a><br />


<div id="container">
	<div id="lyr0" class="lyr">Layer 1</div>
	<div id="lyr1" class="lyr">Layer 2</div>
	<div id="lyr2" class="lyr">Layer 3<p> Continuing layer 3</p><p> Continuing layer 3</p></div>
	<div class="layer">Layer 4</div>
</div>

With the above example Layer 1-3 will display based on mouseclicks. Layer 4 should appear beneath the currently displayed layer, and re-position accordingly based on the size of the preceding DIV.

Does this make sense? Im not sure if Layer 4 should be nested inside the container div or below it. Thnx in advance for any help.

Having read some of the posts in this forum, plus some other websites. With the over-lay capability of divisions could they be used for an expanding menu to show more links?
how about positioning, would it be relative to the menu it just came from?
would each menu be there but turned off by using: visability:hidden; ?

would this menu be possible?

Hey there everyone. (First time posting!)

I was wondering if i could ask your assistance.. I am very close with my new css layout for a project I am working on but i have one small thing that is bugging me...


Click here to view the page: URL


now.. the problem is, when the content in the main "white" window expands the green div behind does not... also the footer gets covered up... This will cause me problems, ideally i would like it to push the green and the footer down as the content expands via either the browser window shrinking or just having more content in the white center div....

Check out this to see what is happening when there is more content in the white center to see what i mean: URL

Thank you so much in advance for your suggestions tips and feedback...

I'm currently working on a website and trying to setup two types of navigation. I don't know what happened with it, and I am by no means a expert with CSS... I'd barely say I am a beginner.. I merely took the code I am using from a different layout and am trying to tweak it. When originally designing the layout I had messed up on the slicing and the navigation worked fine. Upon reslicing the website and replacing the navigation code into the layout, I started noticing that the backgrounds for both sections are spanning wider then they are suppose to and do not know what I am over seeing or over looking. This problem has been bloody pissing me off for hours, and with all problems I have had with coding, it is probably something really simple, that I just have overlooked.

Here is the link.

(it isn't allowing me to post a direct link with me being a new member. This is something I'm trying to get finished, and don't want to proceed with coding the rest of the site until i have the nav figured out.)

Like I said I am just barely a beginner at CSS.. I spent about a hour getting the Validators to like my code. Only one error and that is to do with a background, and i'm not sure how to fix it. If anybody is able to respond, I would greatly appreciate it.
