CSS - Problems With Floats And With Opera
Hi everybody,
i'm quite new to the whole css stuff, but i managed to write some code to my own satisfaction. The problem is that it is not properly presented in Opera 7.51, which i am using. Though it shows to my wishes in IE. the test version can be found at http://users.pandora.be/jef_patat/test/index.htm and the stylesheet at http://users.pandora.be/jef_patat/test/visualstyle2.css It is my intention to have four areas that can stretch in function of their content (the menu, news, validation and main content areas). This works fine in IE but in Opera I get some strange blank areas which i can not solve. I know my css is not perfect but i did the best i can. I would like to use another stylesheet for people with lower bandwiths, this stylesheet is found at http://users.pandora.be/jef_patat/test/visualstyle3.css With this stylesheet one can clearly view i mess up. It should give a simular result as the other stylesheet so i can use the same html code. The outer black border should stretch down the page and i would like some space underneat it as well. Anyone can help? Kind regards Jef Patat Similar TutorialsHey, I got a webpage that looks like it should in both IE 6.0 and firefox 2.0. Now i went testing it in opera and it has a problem with some div positions. Here is how it looks in firefox and IE: Internet explorer:http://img442.imageshack.us/img442/8176/iexz2.jpg firefox:http://img361.imageshack.us/img361/5503/firefoxqc0.jpg And this is how it looks in Opera 9.10:http://img442.imageshack.us/img442/5125/operauw7.jpg The buttons signout, new contact and contact list are shifted to the low. I use this code on every page do display the header with the buttons ( the red part is the div with the buttons in it. Code:
<body>
<div class="containingTitles">
<div class="titleNavDiv">
<b>Hello, stefan.</b>
</div>
<div class="titleContentDiv">
<form action="search_contact.php" name="search" id="search" method="get">
<div style="float: left; width: 35%; margin: 0%; padding: 0%;">
<input type="text" style="width: 50%" name="sq" value="" id="sq">
<input type="submit" name="s" value="Search" id="s">
</div>
</form>
<form name="new_contact" id="new_contact" method="get" action="new_contact.php">
<div style="float: left; width: 22%; margin: 0%; padding: 0%; text-align: right;">
<input type="submit" name="nc" value="New Contact" id="nc">
</div>
</form>
<form name="contact_list" id="contact_list" method="get" action="contact_list.php">
<div style="float: left; width: 22%; margin: 0%; padding: 0%;">
<input type="submit" name="cl" value="Contact List" id="cl">
</div>
</form>
<form name="logout" id="logout" method="get" action="logout.php">
<div style="float: left; width: 20%; margin: 0%; padding: 0%; text-align: right;">
<input type="submit" name="lo" id="lo" value="Sign out">
</div>
</form>
</div>
</div>
<div class="navigationDiv">
<div class="unselectedContact"><a href="contact_info.php?contact_id=102">Username1</a></div>
<div class="unselectedContact"><a href="contact_info.php?contact_id=102">Username2</a></div>
<div class="selectedContact"><a href="contact_info.php?contact_id=102">Username3</a></div>
etc.
</div>
<div class="contentDiv">
----- contents of the page -----
</div>
</div>
And belowis the css code i use to float the divs into position. And here you can see the division of the pages and which class belongs to which div: http://img353.imageshack.us/img353/1503/layoutai3.jpg css Code: Original - css Code body{ margin: 0; padding-left: 0%; padding-right: 0%; padding-top: 0%; padding-bottom: 0%; background: url(background.jpg) 22% 0; } .containingTitles{ float: left; width: 100%; margin: 0%; padding: 0%; background-color: #4D3D4D; color: white; overflow: hidden; } .titleNavDiv{ float: left; width: 20%; margin: 0%; padding-left: 2%; padding-right: 0%; padding-top: 1%; padding-bottom: 1%; overflow: hidden; } .titleContentDiv{ float: left; width: 77%; margin: 0; padding-left: 0%; padding-right: 0%; padding-top: 1%; padding-bottom: 1%; overflow: hidden; } .navigationDiv{ float: left; width: 22%; margin: 0; padding-left: 0%; padding-right: 0%; padding-top: 0%; padding-bottom: 0%; overflow: hidden; color: #FFFFFF; background-color: #4D3D4D; } .contentDiv{ float: left; width: 76%; margin: 0; padding-left: 2%; padding-right: 0%; padding-top: 0%; padding-bottom: 0%; overflow: hidden; color: #000000; background-color: #BFACBF; }
hope you can tell me why this happens. Thanks in advance. I am developing a web site, panopticinsight dot com. The header/banner looks fine in Firefox. In IE7 and Opera, the H2 subtitle is left aligned over the globe image. In IE6 content jumps outside of container. Anyone know why there is a shift, and what I can do about it?

Hi, I have started developing a new website. I am using all the knowledge I gained from this forum, however I want to improve on my previous design. Basically I have the following Html with CSS. Code: <!doctype html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<style>
body{

padding: 0;
color: #00c;
}
div#wrap{
width: 600px;
margin: 0 auto;
background-color: #ccc;
}
div#top{
width: 550px;
margin: 0 auto;
background-color: #0cc;
border: 1px solid red;
}
div#top div#logo{
width: 150px;
float: left;
}
div#top div#links{
width: 400px;
float: right;
text-align:right;
}
div#top div#links ul{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style: none;
}

Now as you can see I have the logo div and links div inside the top div. The logo div is set to float left, while the links div is set to float right. I have also given the top div a border of 1px red. Now in IE7 this is displayed correctly while in FireFox and Opera it is not. I once came with this issue here, and Kravvitz suggested me to use the following hack from this website: http://www.csscreator.com/attributes/containedfloat.php. My question is; Is there another way how to do this without having to introduce that hack? Also I have another question. In reality I am not going to have a border and background in the top section. I have set the width of the logo div to 150px and the width of the links div to 500px. 150px + 400px make up 550px which is the total width of the top div. This means that the content div is placed under the top div and not onto it. I have seen it work on both IE7 and FireFox, but do not know about IE6.0 and Opera!! However is this considered as correct? My third (and final) problem is that I want my list to be aligned right! However it keeps coming to the left! How should I accomplish this with the current CSS I have? Any comments are more then welcome. Thanks and Regards Sim085 Hi guys, I am currently building a website for my union service, and need some help with CSS; particularly in getting it to render consistantly over different browsers. Although I use Firefox at home, the only browser available at work is IE5 (currently running under Windows NT). The Previews: Internet Explorer 5: Internet Explorer 6: Firefox: Opera: What I am trying to achieve is for the #navigation div to align with the sIFR header (this is rendered correctly in IE5/IE6). Firefox and Opera seem to offset the header, meaning that the header and #navigation div no longer align. The 'perfect' rendition seems to be IE6 - if anyone knows what I may need to adjust in me CSS to get this to work consistantly I would really appreciate it. You can see the beta version of the design at: http://www.algus.org.uk/xhtml.php Thanks, Saj Hi, Av just check my website in Opera for the mac and found something annoying.. I have problems with my header and footer.. Screenshots: http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f56/phi21/Picture1-6.png Header cut off http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f56/phi21/Picture2-3.png massive footer Works fine in everything else.. what could be happening ? Thanks www.leehughes.co.uk My navigation resizes and moves in every browser except in Opera. Also, the placement of the navigation in Opera is incorrect. I have a feelin the root of the cause is that I've set a % width on my nav div. Is there a way around this mess?? A hack maybe? My site is http://www.marginalspace.com . You will need to click on the white square on the right-hand column to get the style in which this problem occurs. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The stylesheet in question is white.css . Amit 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. the url is: http:// jhlmc.com/JHLMC/FreshDemoFiles/CoverTToLayers_JHLMCArt.html In IE8 beta it works perfectly. In firefox the entire bottom section (the part under the slide show) is messed up. In Opera there's a gap under the play controls. If I close the gap, it messes up IE. Getting this slide show to work was quite the task, but I'm close to having it work on the big three! Should I just un-nest everything? I'm hoping I can get some guidance on why I can't get this popout menu to work! I used the code from this article to build a popout menu, but for some reason I can't get it to work in firefox. If you test their demo in Firefox but if you test mine, it looks great in Internet Explorer, but gets all messed up Firefox & Opera. If you save the page you will see there is a style sheet as well as a small Javascript file too. If someone could check over my code for me that would be great! I have been staring at it for hours and can't seem to find the problem! This is my first project using CSS styles to control something besides the usual things like fonts, etc. so go easy on me! Thanks in advance! Chelsea I have floating items inside of floating items. The problem is I cannot clear my floating items in the middle column because that ruins the other columns. How can I clear floats in the middle column? Do you have any better ideas to make my layout work? I have attached in image of how the layout should work.

So I have a body div which has a left and right div(columns). I need to add 2 more divs inside the left div. But, these 2 divs have to unordered lists in them. I know my CSS is pretty average if not worse. My layout looks fine except for when I add 2 divs.. I have the float:left with %50 widths.. Screen shot of how my layout looks. img209.imageshack.us/img209/2913/idear.gif I did not add any clear tags to my css.. which I think might be what's causing the issue. Side note: In IE compatibility view the top of the page has a gap and so does the right of the page.. the logo and footer are both 100% width and the top div has a -negative margin to close the gap, it looks fine without compatibility view, and fine in firefox, and chrome. XHTML passed validation and so did CSS. This is before even messing with the columns. I didn't do anything with the unordered lists. Maybe i should ask how to correctly make my layout first.. Because what I've been doing is just adding new divs where I see fit, and then going back to edit the CSS till it works. Thanks for helping me out! BTW: what book would you recommend me getting.. I understand basics of CSS and I think I'm good with XHTML, I just need to get a better definition of CSS than w3schools has to offer. Thanks again. Hey, k, as per usual, all's well in FF with this site. The list to the right is forcing the paragraphs below in IE tho...I've tried a bunch of different 'clears' and what not, but can't seem to figure it out. Here's the html; Code:

i'm also having similar issues with simple image floats, as seen here. It forces the paragraph underneath in IE...boourns. Anyways, any guidance'd be greatly appreciated. Cheers. Hello, I'm currently working on a website layout that uses CSS for everything. I have a header, and two columns below that. The header works perfectly. I used float:left on both of my two columns, and they both appear side-by-side as intended. However, I want the right column to fill up the entire right side of the screen. When I try to use CSS's width: 100%; the entire right column jumps down below the left column, which is not what I want. I made a little screenshot: http://img282.echo.cx/img282/6555/tms1od.png I believe it can be done, but I'm stumped. Help is appreciated Can you guys tell me why code below does not show properly in firefox 2 when it shows up right in IE7? If I add clear:both to footer then it displays right, but should not it show it alongside the div #2 anyways? Code:

Hi All, I am almost tearing he little hair I have left out! I can't get the div in the middle to clear the floats. Works just lovely in FF, but that IE thing won't work!!! Grrree http://www.tuxdiscs.com/sscp7b/ Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks Hey, yet again I am having issues with some floated elements in IE (6 + 7). Have a look here. The product details start under the bottom of the photo of the product, and I've tried a bunch of different things to get it lined up with no joy. Here's the CSS: Code:
#features {
position:relative;
float:right;
margin:0 20px 20px 20px;
width:350px;
border:1px solid #E1DCC6;
border-top:0;
}
* html #features {
margin:0 10px 0 10px;
}
#features p, #features p strong {
font-size:10px;
margin:4px;
padding:2px;

Any insight, as per usual, is greatly appreciated. Hello everyone, Newbie here Can anyone show me how to CSS objects or text inline horizontally in the banner/header such as at the top of this forum? My banner/header uses large text for a logo on the left, and I would like to put a search form or something on the right side of the header. Do I have to declare the width of each? See how much newbie I am? Thanks for any help. Ken This may be a stupid question, but I recently noticed something with floats and side by side elements that confuses me. I thought you always had to specify a width when it came to floating elements along side each other, as block level elements inherit 100% width usually. But on the last 2 sites I coded, I was able to float divs without specifying a fixed width. The div boxes only took up the width of there content. Worked in FF, Chrome, Safari, IE7/8. This is great, as it saves time, but makes no sense. Am I confused? After fighting with JS to get scrolling content to work, I now have a problem with IE8/9, where a wide div bleeds outside of containing div. Works fine in FF and Chrome code and css are in http://rentz.phi.co.uk/testanimate.html Any ideas? |
