CSS - #base Applies To <div> In One Case
I'm trying to figure out how come the setting for the "base" <div>
applies the margin rules to the <ul> in this example (see halveway down the article) URL and it does not work for me when I re-create the same code here URL As far as I can tell I'm duplicating something that seems fairly simple. So the solution is probably a simple one, why doesn't the margin rules affect the <ul> tag in my HTML and why does it work in the example? Sincerely, Aaron S Similar TutorialsSo, what would I like to have? A css rule that would affect visual appearance of only the <input type="submit"> elements (or any other sub-type of <input>, but again, affecting that sub-type only). Is it possible to do? How? I have a lot of .NET pages with a LOT of submit buttons (within datagrids and regular buttons too). There is a way to do it programaticaly in source code of .NET pages, but I'd like an elegant solution like css, which could be done without recompiling entire project. Any help is highly appreciated. Hiya, So what I'm trying to do is have a base image used as a background that sits on the left side, and then another image to be used to tile across the rest of the page from where the first one left off. I'm not really sure how/if you can easily do something like that, and I can't seem to find anything when I'm searching. And when its all said and done, text would still go over both images as if it was one image. Thanks, -Sky Alright, so I took advice I was receiving and made a tableless template for a site. Now I have one problem - my two columns are <div> tags, floated to the left and right. At the bottom of the page, however, I need to align the ends of the column horizontally - without using 'height' attributes that I'd have to change upon updating or changing any page. The site files are attached. I basically need a way to end each column at the same line. Changing the entore layout of the page is not an option because I do not have the time to re-configure everything - the solution does not need to be absolutely perfect as far as CSS validation goes, but it needs to be cross-browser compatible. Thanks in advance - you guys are always excellent with my questions no matter what I ask. Recently I started making my very first doctype=strict page and am trying to make it act the same way in IE and Firefox. After much time spent in research and experimentation I ditched tables in favor of DIVs cause 100% tends to be either too wide or too tall. The only good solution I could find is using javascript to calculate widths and heights. This is fine since the entire page is one big ajax playground. So anyway, research says this is cause width/height percentages don't take padding and borders into consideration. Let's say I set an outer div to 100 pixels wide. Then I give it a 2 pixel padding on the left and right side. Then I give it a 1 pixel border on the left and right side. Then I add another DIV inside this container and set it to 100% width. For some reason, both IE and Firefox feels the need to calculate this as 106 pixels wide instead of 100 pixels. I'm not sure if the HTML standard says this has to be true, but I can find no justification for such a practice. I understand that they prefer that the 100 pixels apply to only the content - that padding and borders increase the width of the object. But I don't see why objects that are inside of that container would try to stretch wider than the content width. I say all the above just in case there's something I'm missing and somebody would like to correct me. So now for my question. Other than using javascript, is there a way to make sure that objects inside the container have the width of the container's content width rather than the container's actual width. Any answers must apply to the height as well, since I understand that there is a somewhat unreliable behavior (in my testing) where a DIV automatically takes up as much width as is available. How do I make a paragraph sentence Case (first alphabet of each word capital) in CSS? Thanx for your help. Hello I would like to change the cursor when it is over on a link with an defined file extension. It does not work well: the test.zip link is OK while the test.ZIP link does not have any effect.
