CSS - 2 Column With Css Problems
If you look at this in both IE and Mozilla/Firefox. On IE, notice how the 2nd column expands with the size of the image, but on Firefox it doesn't. I'm assuming firefox is the one thats correct, since IE is horrible with CSS. How would I go about doing this on Mozilla/Firefox browsers, so that it looks like it does on IE.
http://imgod.us/temp/test1/ Thanks for your time. Similar TutorialsHi there, I'm having lots of trouble trying to get a three column system on my website. Unfortunately, it is not on the internet yet, so all i can show you is a screenshot of the problem I am having. The problem is that the column on the right hand side ("rightcol") is not high enough up. I have tried changing the values and repositing eerything but it goes everywhere else around the screen except the place where I want it! As you can see from the CSS below, I have a wrapper which everything is contained within. I've tried using absolute positioning for this but it messes up wen the user resizes the browser. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated. I have taken out the (i think) unneccessary bits from the CSS code (like the link styles and content styles). The HTML code looks like this (roughly):- Code:
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="banner"></div>
<div id="leftcol">
links go here>
</div>
<div id="content">
blah blah blah
</div>
<div id="rightcol">
links go here
</div>
<div id="footer">
info goes here
</div>
</div>
The CSS code is :- Code:
#wrapper {
width: 770px;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
margin: 10px auto;
border: 1px solid: #000000;
text-align: left;
background-repeat: repeat-y;
}
#leftcol {
margin-top: 20px;
margin-left: 0px;
float: left;
width: 100px;
}
#content {
background-color: #f5f5f5;
padding-top: 10px; padding-right: 10px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 10px;
margin-top: 10px; margin-right: 120px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 120px;
}
#rightcol {
margin-left: 630px;
margin-right: 10px;
margin-top: 0px;
width: 100px;
float: right;
background: #fff;
border: 1px solid #000;
}
#footer {
clear: both;
border-top: 1px solid #000000;
background-color: #336799;
color: #FFFFFF;
}
I'm having problems with a fluid three column layout. I started with the layout from Realworldstyle and ended up with this. The strange thing is that it seems to stay wider than the window, no matter what size the window is. There's also the right end of the top border in the right DIV, which is a few pixels short. Any suggestions? http://midnighttweaker.50megs.com/test.htm I am having some problems laying out a center-aligned container with 3 columns within it. I am sure the issue is with float, but I can't figure out how to get around it. Actually, it does work, but only if the center column is longer than the other two columns. Otherwise, they wrap over the footer and extend outside the container. Here is the CSS: Code:
body {
margin:0px 0px 10px 0px;
background-image : url(image_name.gif);
background-repeat:repeat-x;
text-align: center;
}
A { color: #0066CC; text-decoration: none; font-weight:bold; }
A:link { color: #0066CC; text-decoration: none; }
A:visited { color: #0066CC; text-decoration: none; }
A:active { color: #3399ff; }
A:hover { color: #3399ff; }

Ok, I've created an XHTML/CSS site that looks fine in IE5+, Mozilla, FireFox and Netscape. It almost works in Opera and on a Mac but it seems something slightly is going wrong. The biggest problem is on the Mac, while the page looks fine, for some reason part of the left div goes over to the right, making the right div drop below it. I am sure it is just a CSS problem with the position or maybe float but if I could get someone to pin point the problem it would save me a lot of time. Also on the Mac and in Opera, my columns have a gap at the very bottom of the page somehow, not quite sure why? They seem fine in the other browsers. Also, just another quickie, in IE4.0 does it not support columns of floats? My site just expands the full length and ignores the float left rule, any ways to get round this? The site URL is: www.gladiatorszone.co.uk/home/gladiators/ Thank you in advance to anyone that can help. Hi guys, I am struggling a bit with getting the background of one of my css-created columns to be the height I want it to be. If you have a look at http://www.addictivemedia.com.au/clients/REW/ you will see (depending on your browser) that the left column behaves not the way I want it to: - in IE 6 it creates an additional scrollbar (because it adds the height of the banner at the top to the 100% height I gave to the column) - in all other browsers it is not as long as the column on the right The effect I want to achieve is of course for both columns to have the same height and (if possible) to always push the footer to the bottom of the browser window. I have tried the pushing to the bottom many times and out of previous posts I gather that it probably won't happen for all browsers. But I cannot figure out why the left column doesn't extend as far as the right one. Thanks for your help! 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 ??? Click here to see the page So here is my css: Code:
/*Main Section two columns under top section*/
#wrapper{

Hi, I haven't done any .css in a while so this might be a really dumb question I could have figured out by myself but... I'm trying to make a 3 column webpage using wordpress . I've colored the three columns blue, yellow, and red. I can get the blue and red to the relative position I want, but the red one is stuck below the two others even though I want all three on the same level. I can't quite figure out what's preventing that red column from positioning itseld higher... Any thoughts? I'm trying to create a 3 column layout where all the columns are contained within 1 larger <div>. So far I've managed to create 3 columns using absolute positioning that dont allow the back-ground image of the containing <div> to show through. If I use relative positioning, the background-image shows, but the columns are set relative to one another and they stagger from left to right in a diagonal fashion. I can correct it using negative values for the "top" attribute, but it seems bushleague and its incredibly tedious. Is there anyway I can have 3 PROPER (not using the above method) columns while also having the largest containing div's back-ground image show through them? The following gives me the staggered layout: Code:
.leftColumn{
margin-left:20px;
width:100px;
border:thin dotted #999999;
}
.middleColumn{
margin-left:121px;
width: 450px;
border:thin dotted #999999;
}
.rightColumn{
margin-left:572px;
width: 200px;
border:thin dotted #999999;
}
.main{
left:200px;
width: 950px;
background-image: url(Images/PaperBkg.gif);
background-repeat:repeat-y;
}
<div class="main">
<div class="leftColumn">
</div>
<div class="middleColumn">
</div>
<div class="rightColumn">
</div>
</div>
Thanks guys. I am working on the new home page which is based on a template. The left sideColumn is working fine, however I am having a few problems with the mainColumn layout. Here is a static image to show what I want it to look like Here are the problems I am having: 1) The #scroll box is place where I want it in IE but in foxfire it is right up against the left side of the #sideColumn partially hidden. There will be text that scrolls into this box and stops. I haven't started on the part yet - in case that makes a difference. Not my choice, but that is what the bosses want. 2) I want the image centered horizontal within the #mainColumn. Here is what I have for the css: #home img { margin: 5px auto 5px auto; } which I thought would do the trick, but it's not. 3) I want the p text to have a 40px margin on the right and left side like the .large does. Here is what I have for the css: #home p, .large { margin: auto 40px auto 40px; } It works for the .large (Welcome to Vitalograph), but not for the text below it. At one point I had it working, but after addtional changes fixing other problems, now it doesn't and I can't figure out why. Here is the xhtml starting at the 2 column part (wrapper): Code: <!--begin wrapper-->
<div id="wrapper">
<!--begin side column -->
<div id="sideColumn">

I've placed the Country Title in an H2 tag, then beneath that, each anchor is enclosed in a DIV, and is set as a left-floated block. Then I placed a spacer DIV (clear: both) to create a new line, then repeated with H2 and links. This all works fine in Firefox, IE7 and Opera, but of course IE6 is being a pig as usual. The spacer DIV is pushed to sit alongside the bottom of the left column, and I can't figure out how to (or if I can) stop this. I can't add in links properly, so I hope this is acceptable under the rules -- The site in question is: www.swalings .com/swalings/index4.asp and here's a screenshot of IE6 behaviour: www.swalings .com/images/swalings-ie6-troubleshoot.jpg Hopefully that's enough information to go on, please let me know if there's something I missed out. Thanks a lot! Rob Hi I am trying to make a table to display some stuff within a fix sized window. I want to have 5 columns of fixed width and one column that spans the rest of the remaining space. The Idea is to allow the widths of the first 5 columns to be changed by a script and having the last one adapting as needed... html Code: Original - html Code <div class="container"><table cellspacing="0"> <colgroup> <col width="40" /> <col width="220" /> <col width="120" /> <col width="65" /> <col width="40" /> </colgroup> <thead> <tr> <th>A</th> <th>B</th> <th>C</th> <th>D</th> <th>E</th> <th style="width: 100%;></th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>1</td> <td>2</td> <td>3</td> <td>4</td> <td>5</td> <td style="width: 100%;></td> </tr> </tbody> </table></div> <div class="container"><table cellspacing="0"> <colgroup> <col width="40" /> <col width="220" /> <col width="120" /> <col width="65" /> <col width="40" /> </colgroup> <thead> <tr> <th>A</th> <th>B</th> <th>C</th> <th>D</th> <th>E</th> <th style="width: 100%;></th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>1</td> <td>2</td> <td>3</td> <td>4</td> <td>5</td> <td style="width: 100%;></td> </tr> </tbody> </table></div> css Code: Original - css Code div.container { height: 400px; width: 800px; overflow: scroll; } table { width: 100%; } td { border-style: solid; border-color: silver; border-width: 0px; padding: 1px 3px; } th { border-style: outset; border-color: silver; border-width: 2px; background: silver; padding: 1px 3px; }
It really does fill the entire space but the last column crushes all the other into their minimal width resulting in linebreaks between words inside the cells... Please help me Hey, So I have a three column layout being implemented as such: html: Code:
<div class="content">
<div class="col1 column"></div>
<div class="col3 column"></div>
<div class="col2 column">
<div class="header">Header</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS: Code:
.column {
padding: 10px;
position:relative;
}
.header {
background:#cfe6f5;
color:#416383;
font-size:11px;
font-family:Arial;
font-weight:300;
padding-left:15px;
}
.col1 {
float: left;
width:250px;
}
.col2 {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
.col3 {
float:right;
width:250px;
}
The problem is that the width of the header div extends all the way to the left and right of the page when it's in the middle column, but behaves the way I want it to (extends to the left and right of the column) when it's in the left or right column. Any ideas? Thanks. --Surgery Question title: A 2 column layout, let only the second column scroll horizontally and let them both scroll vertically Hello I did try several idea's, but all failed. Then I did search the web but found a list of > 400.000 in google. If someone is willing to tell me if it is possible and give me some directions, please do. Everything is welcome. I got a list with 3 columns ( basically you could say I have only two columns because 2-3 could be concatenated to together, but they have a different style and justification, but I could live to start with a two column sample) f.e line 1 : value_one - ( some_text - value_two (right justified) ) line 2 : value_one - ( some_text - value_two (right justified) ) line 99:.... e.t.c Column one has a fixed width of 32px. 'some text' can be longer then the wide available and value_two is with 3 spaces appended to column 2. I want that column one is fixed horizontal and that the second and the third column can scroll horizontally. Of course when there are more line's then the height of the container is should be posable to scroll vertically. Finally I need the color behind column one be different then the column 2 and 3. So what I did create is a container with two containers where the left one has a different colour then the right one and above those a container with the list. I have overflow on auto, so I get scroll-bars when necessarily. But my problem is that when I scroll horizontally that my first column scrolls away to the left. Basically my question is. How can I get a 2 column layout, let only the second column scroll horizontally ( first is locked in horizontal place ) and let them scroll both vertically? can i make my left column, the same height as my right column? or infact, if the left is taller than the right, the right extends to it and if the right is taller than the left the left extends to it? is this possible, cheers heres my css: left column, is #leftNav and the right column is #contentMain PHP Code: #content { margin:0px auto; padding: 0; width: 760px; } #contentMain { padding: 0; margin: 0; float: right; width: 632px; } #leftNav { color: #000; float: left; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 128px; } Hi, hopefully you enjoyed the title, I had a good laugh thinking of it in that split second it took me to write it. So, I found a 3 column css layout on a CSS generator website, because I got sick of trying to hack up layouts I've made in the past that didn't work. Anyhow, it was working fine with one line of content in each column when I tested it out, however, once content in the middle column was added, and stretched vertically beyond a certain point, it will drag the left columns content down with it. The right column is not affected in any way. I have spent a few hours trying to look for reasons as to why it would happen, but I had no luck. I would appreciate any help... so thank you in advance if you take a stab at it. Here's the html: Code: <body> <div id="pagewidth"> <div id="header"></div> <div id="wrapper" class="clearfix" > <div id="twocols" class="clearfix"> <div id="maincol">Main Text, woot.

Again, thank you in advance if you can come up with anything. Hello, I am having difficulty with the center column on the following page: http://cbo4edu.org/index2.html I want to widen the center column so that the CBO NEWS heading touches the blue line which divides the center and right column. When I try to add width to the style sheet the left column moves out of alignment. Any help is much appreciated, thanks! Hello! I'm new to CSS, so any help would be greatly appreciated! I'm working on this page: sugarhooker[dot]com/testing/index2.html *The CSS is included in the head The right column is suppose to start where it says 'Are you hooked...' It should be right underneath the navigation bar. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Thanks in advance! Hi, http://www.dudley.nhs.uk/search.asp has a two column effect. The CSS for it is he http://www.dudley.nhs.uk/css/screen.css I was wondering why if there is a table in the right hand column with a width percentage over 77% there is some horizontal scrolling? This happens in IE. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Janusz Jasinski I am a HTML&CSS novice - I am trying to write a page using a three column layout but the column colour doesn't reach the footer. I understand that this is a common problem and I've looked at a lot of examples on the web of how to work around this or create a better layout but I'm still not sure enough to know which would be the easiest and best to go within the page I have written. I want to avoid images but other than that any help would be great! I have validated the HTML & CSS and they are copied below (could any advice be really specific, as I said this is very new to me!).
