CSS - Maybe I'm Nuts....
Isn't there an automatic way (w/o javascript) to change the class of a menu item if they're on the selected page? I could have sworn there was an easy way to make a menu item highlight if the user was on that page..... But then again, maybe im nuts...
Thanks. Similar TutorialsIn my style-sheet, I have something like this #mainnav UL LI { height:50px; vertical-align: middle; (i tried center also) text-align: center; } What I want the text to sit half-way down the 50 height... http://www.rodoslovlje.com/ Use IE e.g. Does anyone know how I can fix this. Thnx Take a look at this page http://www.gameworldx.com/test.html I removed most of the html exept the part giving me problems, but all of the CSS is there. You will see a blue bar(footer) and the white bar (bottom). Both of the links are blue and bold. Why? I have no idea. That is the problem. I noticed that is I remove the CSS for one div or the other, the opposite div shows correctly, but I dont know why it does that. Can anyone see any problems? It's really late, and I am tired, so its gotta be a really stupid mistake. Thanks! Please visit this page - http://www.tmhdesign3.com/real-estate-broker.asp See the gap, about 10px, on the page just below the header? For the life of me I can't get rid of it in FF. I opened Firebug and specified a top:-10px on the content div and it closes the gap. BUT, when I open my css file on the server and chagne that spec and then open the page I still have the gap??? Thanks for any help. http://wrath.wr.funpic.org Hello Devshed. I am new here and am here looking for help. Maybe I'm just tired and dumb right now to figure it out. Anyways if you would take a look at the site I pointed out you'll notice the bottom border is missing. Why? When I removed the float:left; on the lis it is fine but when it's in there it's all screwed up. Second thing... if you'll notice my hovers do not work in IE. Is there an alternate way for me to get them to work in IE. Thanks a lot. If it works in Netscape, it will not work in IE If it works in IE, it will not work in Netscape. Soo, what am I to do? Okay, Im trying to make a table bg have an opacity of 40%. I've gone over the net to figure out the problems, knowing that filter:alpha{} is not recognized by Netscape. So, I found some information to help overcome Netscape woes, and now the opacity isn't work in IE. I need help before I rip all my hair out. So below is what Im working with. Code: <html> <head> <style type="text/css"> #menu { background-color: #FFFFFF; filter: alpha(opacity=40); filter: progid;:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(opacity=40); -moz-opacity: 0.40; position:relative; top:0; } .tdbg { background-color: #FFFFFF; filter: Alpha(Opacity=40); } </style> </head> <body> <table width="610" border="0" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#FF0000"> <tr> <td align="center"> <table width="600" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td class="tdbg">FOO</td> </tr> <tr> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><div id="menu">FOO</div></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> So, basically the top cell is "correct" in IE, but the bottom cel is not. And opposite for Netscape (7.0+) How can i fix it so its the same for both browsers? Hello, I am trying to display a three column menu (each column is a list). I created a single container. Within that I created three more containers(each about 33% width). Each internal <div> for the separate columns are set to inline. When I put text in each of the 4 pairs of <divs> they display side by side. Just fine. But If the DIV contains a list, despite the fact that the DIVs defined as inline, it still drops to the next line and things like the background color don't even render. All of the box styles are identical except for the background color. Shouldn't the <DIV> (defined with the display:inline) let me place whatever I want inside it? Just out of curiosity, I changed the first column into a 1 item list and it sifted to the right,.I don't know what that was based on. It also seemed to act like a block display, everytning went to the next line, and the background color was ignored. But the color attribute did render. ????? I haven't seen anything discussing the issues with defining lists inside of inline DIVs. I'm working with Firefox because that follows the standards better than IE although I have to make it work w/ IE too. What did has me pounding my head is how a UL tag seems to wipe out most (but not all) of the settings for the DIV containing it. I am thinking of making the columns each list items as a work around but I don't know why what I tried doesn't work. Thanks! Randy This is an simple example: Code: <html> <head> <title>Untitled Document</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <style> #box1 { width:100px; height:100px; background-color:#FFFF33; display:inline; } #box2 { width: 100px; height: 100px; background-color:#FF8833; display:inline; } #box3 { width: 100px; height: 100px; background-color:#88FF33; display:inline; } #box4 { width: 100px; height: 100px; background-color:#CCCCCC; display:inline; } #container { width: 550px; height 150px; background-color:#CC66FF; } li { list-style:none; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="container"> <div id="box1">Column 1</div> <div id="box2">Column 2</div> <div id="box3">Column 3</div> <div id="box4"> <ul> <li>Column 4</li> </ul> </div> </body> </html> I feel like I am going backwards instead of forward. I have made many changes to the layout trying to achieve what I want I had something close, but it was for a fixed height for the main page layout box and I needed something that will be a min height of 600px but will stretch if the content exceeds that. So now after reading many tutorials on boxes, blocks, layouts, floats, etc. I am actually further from acheiving my goal (I think). I feel like I am losing my mind trying to figure it out I have made each major box a different color for purposes only of trying to get the layout right and figuring out what each element is actually doing - so ignore all the funky colors. I tried using a background image to create a faux side column (hot pink border) that I hoped would do the trick - however, I can't even get it to show up. I realize there has got to be something I am over looking - but what??? I tried using the css toolbar helper - the bg image is outlined but not showing up?? There are no broken images either ???

I had worked with html and asp and had thrown together sites quickly in the past, so I didnt think much of it... But php turns out to be a whole new animal I guess, or maybe im missing something simply in the css. I have spent the last 4 hours looking online and asking friends, and I am no closer. I see plenty of forums with footer issues here, but none have given me any clues. Here is the site(im new, i cant post URLs): http://aeroprepare.com You will note that the bottom of the page has a large gray gap, between the footer content and the copywrite area. I simply want to remove this gap, shorten it, so the footer fits closer to the bottom of the page, like the copywrite section does. Sounds simple, but its driving me NUTS. here is my CSS: Code: /*** CSS Resets ***/ html, body, div, span, applet, object, iframe,h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, p, blockquote, pre,a, abbr, acronym, address, big, cite, code,del, dfn, em, font, img, ins, kbd, q, s, samp,small, strike, strong, sub, sup, tt, var,dl, dt, dd, ol, ul, li,fieldset, form, label, legend,table, caption, tbody, tfoot, thead, tr, th, td { margin: 0;

I dont have the footer in an incorrect div (that i can see) Please can someone far smarter than me see whats going on here. I have taken the footer apart, edited the style sheet a 100 different gut-shot ways, tried to recreate the page, ripped apart the wrapper and other sections... If I touch the height on the footer push, the whole footer moves to the center of the page... If I try to move around it, I get dead space between the end of the text and the beginning of the footer.... PLEASE someone show me what im missing, ive lost hair over this, and my laptop is about to find out if its impact resistant. |
