CSS - Macromedia And Link Issue
Hello I'm new to the forum and I'm hoping someone can help me with a question.
I predominantly use html to build websites but I'm finding that the topic of frames is frowned upon. So I'm wondering if I can use CSS instead but their is a catch....here's the situation... I've built a page that has a .swf movie that I made with Swish V2. The last scene includes a link to another page that includes a jpg with an image map. I'd like to have this link with the image map load in the first page so that the viewer is forced to go through the swf movie to get to the image map each time. The problem I'm having is that the Swish program allows the link to work in the same window but it shows the address as being the link and not the parent windows address. These pages are used for roleplay in a chat server. If I leave it as it stands now they will be able to save the page with the image map on it and avoid the macromedia movie each time. Is there something that can be done? Thanks in advance for your time. mira Similar TutorialsI'm having another link issue. I have images in a <ul> that are links. (It's a gallery using Slimbox + Mootools). Everything looks fine in FF. However, in IE, I get these little maybe 2 or 3 pixel (width) link lines that are blue and then purple when visited. They are not on every image. In fact, my <ul> has 4 lines of six images, and the little extra pixel lines fall in the margin after the first image of every line. Here's my CSS: Code: a img { border: 0 none; margin: 4px 4px 10px 4px; text-decoration: none; } a:hover img { border: 1px solid #e5cb43; margin: 3px 3px 9px 3px; } ul.photog { list-style-position: outside; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; border: none; background-color: #979089; width: 850px; text-align: center; margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; } li.photog { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; list-style-type:none; } Strange thing is that I have another <ul> that uses identical code to that one and doesn't have the problem I am experiencing with this one. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! I have a <ul> list in which I set the opacity for the <li> elements. Inside the <li> elements I have <a> elements. The issue is that the <a> element text is inheriting the opacity for the <li>??? Here is a link http://casadelmar.tmhdesign.com Thanks. PROBLEM: I create a nice button using the sliding doors technique for rounded corners. But the button displays with 100% width unless I float it. My layout requires that the buttons be inline with the text, so floating won't work. Anyone know an alternative? I wouldn't mind floating but I want the button to show inline with the text. When I use float:left, it removes it from the inline flow. Basically, I want a very modular button that can be used in several different places on a page. In many cases, floating is fine because the mockup has it out of the inline text, but I want to use it there, too. Here's the HTML: <a class="button" href="#"><span>Update Profile</span></a> Here's the css: a.button:link, a.button:visited { background:url(button_right.gif) no-repeat right top; } a.button span:hover, a.button span:active { background:url(button_left_hover.gif) no-repeat right top; } a.button span { background:url(button_left.gif) no-repeat left top; color:#fff; cursorointer; display:block; height:20px; line-height:20px; margin:0 2px 0 0; padding:0 10px; position:relative; white-space:nowrap; } http://tinyurl.com/5llwfl I'm having some problems with this page in particular. Try clicking on one of the Left or Right white image arrows below the main picture. This only occurs in Firefox 2.x. Once you click the link, the content area below "Starting from $278.497" should shift roughly 5 pixels down. I thought it may be related to the dotted link outline that surrounds the image, but that was not the case. I applied styles to get rid of that and there was no changes. I also thought it may be related to a position:relative; bug which this site has been notorious for. I tried making certain divs in that area position:relative to no avail. So to test further I tried an overall #content *{position:relative;} fix which could not fix the position shift, either. I'm not sure what else it could be. And while I do have access to the build of this app, I have not been able to reproduce the issue by downloading all HTML, CSS, and image files locally. Hello Is there a way i can restore my <a href> link back to its original color, that is before the a:visited event, when I click on another link? PS. no Javascript code needed, is their an alternative in css? I have my links defined with a dashed border, but I don't want this on linked images and I'm trying to figure out if I can accomplish this with CSS only without additional markup in my HTML file. Here is a sample file: http://www. shawkey.com/test/imagebordertest.html Any suggestions on how I can get the dashed border to not appear below the image and only appear below the text with just CSS? WHAT IS THE TYPICAL CSS PROBLEM FOR THIS ISSUE? w w w. jaywayproductions . c o m/portfolio/work_history.html It suppose to look the way it looks in IE. It is a little off in Firefox. I have been try'n several things to solve this particular issue but cannot. It seems as if the bottom and top row stretches and makes the effect I was trying to accomplish look off in FF. You can understand what I'm sayin' when you view both. Does anyone know why it is doing this? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Hello is there a way to make it so hyperlinks are not decorated as the default blue? I have the following css which I've attempted to make it so the text '.com' is always white, but it defaults to the standard link color. html: <td class="nodecoration"><a class="nodecoration" href="http://www.somesite.com">.com</a></td> css: Code: td.nodecoration { background-color: #003399; color: white; width: 120px; height: 30px; font-family: "Verdana", sans-serif; font-size: 25px; font-weight: bold; text-align:center; } A:link.nodecoration {text-decoration: none} A:visited.nodecoration{text-decoration:none} A:active.nodecoration{text-decoration:none} a:hover.nodecoration{text-decoration:underline} Hi everyone, For years I've been using tables solely to position elements on web pages but it's come to my attention that this is now "frowned" upon in the web community so I figured if I'm going to start doing things the more common way (with DIVs) I might as well start now. I'm not a professional website developer (C programmer here...eek! haha), but I do part time web work for some important clients of mine. So I have a very simple layout done with DIVs/CSS to start (code at the bottom). The problem is when you render it you'll see a large gap between the bottom of the layout and bottom of the page. My hypothesis is that this is due to where the "DIVs" would normally have been, except I moved them around. It sounds very similar to the problem encountered he http://forums.devshed.com/css-help-116/how-to-remove-blank-space-at-bottom-554773.html but I don't see what he did to solve it. Note that ultimately what I want is only the "header" and "footer" to have a fixed width/height. The leftcol and content should have fixed widths, but height grow with what ever is in them. And it should be centered in the page the way it is now. I tried various "text-wrap" and "height: 100%" and a few different codes but no luck. I really don't want to have to give up on DIV's but I am finding them a tad frustrating . I've altered the code from here (http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/Web-Style-Sheets/DIV-Based-Layout-with-CSS/3/). I tried "floating" them but that didn't seem to help either or is messes up my centering, plus I don't want it expanding to different resolutions. Thanks in advance if you can give a DIV newbie a heads up.

Thanks for your help in advance.. Dan Hello I am having difficulties with a site I am working on. First, if you look at it in IE and roll your mouse to the right of the site the whole thing shifts to the left. No idea why it does this. Second: In Firefox it looks like a disaster! Help! http://www.tombraiders.net/katie/shelly/index.html User: letme Pass: in Thank you! I'm having trouble pinning down an issue with just one part of a page. I can't seem to figure out if the issue is a css issue or an HTML issue. I have a tab that is under a picture that has a floating height and fixed width. Under the picture when the page first loads a div element that is supposed to be a css tab seems to float over it until I reload the page. When the page is reloaded the tab moves back to its static position. This only happens in IE7 by the way.

I am trying to get a background colour on a link that changes when it is rolled over. This I can do, however the colour only extends to the length of the word, I want it to extend to the entire length of the sidebar it is in. See: Online FX for what I mean. Current CSS: Code: .sidebar { background-image: url(images/sidebar.jpg); background-repeat: repeat-y; width: 165px; } .sidelinks { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; padding-left: 30px; padding-top: 55px; vertical-align: top; vertical-align: text-top; width:100%; height:20px; } a.side:link { color: blue; text-decoration: none; display:block; color:#FFFFFF; background:#0054A5; } a.side:active { color: red; text-decoration: none; } a.side:visited { color: blue; text-decoration: none; color:#FFFFFF; background:#0054A5; } a.side:hover { color: blue; text-decoration: none; background: #0E4173; } And the HTML for that section: Code: <td rowspan="2" class="sidebar" valign="top"> <div class="sidelinks"> <a href="index.html" class="side">Home</a> </div> </td> Any ideas? Can someone help me with this? The link as well as the box it is in shifts when I hover over the link. I have searched in this forum and Googled it, but still cannot figure it out. Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>shift</title> <style type="text/css"> #shift { width:60%; margin-left:2%; padding:1%; background-color:gray; } a:hover{ color: black; background-color:#899B80; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="shift"> <div> <a href="#" rel="bookmark" title="title">When you hover over this link it shifts and the box it is in shifts as well.</a> </div> </div> </body> </html> Alright, this has to be the most annoying thing I've ever dealt with in any sort of anything. According to w3schools, and a few threads I read here trying to find my problem, you link your HTML and CSS files by using <head> <link ref="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="file.css" /> </head> Or, you can use internal styling with <head> <style> (code) </style> </head> Well, linking doesn't work. Using Dreamweaver, when I enter href= I get the option to browse to the file. I do so, and I open the .CSS file from there. So I know I'm getting the exact location of the .CSS file. However, when I use <style> , it works fine. If I copy and paste the code in the .CSS file and paste it between <style> tags, then the page works fine. What the heck? |
