CSS - Window Re-size Issue

Ive used css to produce some onclick buttons for my web site:

#elButton a {
color: white;
font-size:10px;
font-family:verdana;
font-weight:bold;
text-align:center;
text-decoration: none;
border:3px outset #99ccff;
background-color: #3399ff;
display: block;
margin: 1px;
height: 2.3em;
padding: 3px 5px 0;
}

#elButton a:hover {
background-color: #D43D2A;
color:#ffffff;
padding-left:5px;
border:3px inset #ffffff;
}

The height of the button is 2.3em .. now why on earth does this appear radically different in Mozilla browsers ??

In NS7 and Mozilla and Safari the buttons are huge (height-wise) !!!!!
But in IE it looks ok ????

Thanks for your time.

Hi there,

I have a font size problem. Basically, some of the text on the page appears as size 14 verdana, where as the other text appears how i want it.

I want the text to be displayed as 11px tahoma.

This is what i am using:
PHP Code:
 BODY {    
    margin:0px;
    padding:0px;
    font-family: tahoma, verdana, arial;
    font-size: 11px;
    
} 





Also, some text is in a <p> tag. How do i define that?

Many thanks

Hi there,

I'm completely new to CSS. I'm trying to do this more than one hour but can't get it right.

Code:

<font color='white'><font size='1' face=verdana size=1>

I couldn't find the equivalent of this in CSS

This is my last experiment but it doesn't seem to work either

Code:

fontstyle { color : #FFFFFF; font-family : verdana ; font-size :1;}

Thanks

So when using Netscape 7.2 & Opera 7.5 and MSIE 6.0,


How do you get a simple tag like

body {
font-size:small;
}

to be equal in all browsers?

Setting IE Text Size to Medium, and Opera's Zoom to 100% (both defaults) and Netscape 7.2 to 120% (not the default) is one way, but is there a CSS way?

By the way, the child element hack "body>div {property}" wasn't working no matter what I tried, by not working I mean to say Netscape never would read it or apply it.

It appeared to be that Opera & IE need to read the same value while Netscape needs to apply a larger size to be equal to IE's and Opera's rendering.

B

I could see this as potentially being really easy to do or really hard to do. I'm hoping for the former. Suppose I have 3 divs, A, B, C and that I want the total width of A + B + C to equal the width of the screen. Suppose also that I want them to be inline. How can I have B to be a fixed width while A and C expand depending on the screen width (such that the width of A = the width of C)?

WHAT IS THE TYPICAL CSS PROBLEM FOR THIS ISSUE?

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

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!

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.

This should be fairly simple, but I can't figure it out right now. I have a list of nav buttons that I have floated so they are inline. When I hover over them, a 4px border appears at the bottom. The problem is, it pushes my content container down on hover. I've tried margins and padding in different places, but can't seem to prevent it from happening. How do you prevent this?

Code:

#navcontainer
{
	display:inline;
}
#navlist
{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
padding-bottom:20px;
border-bottom: 1px solid #FDC737;
float:right;
}

#navlist ul, #navlist li
{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
display: inline;
list-style-type: none;
}
#navlist li
{
	line-height: 14px;
}
#navlist a:link, #navlist a:visited
{
float: left;
font-weight: bold;
margin: 0 10px 4px 10px;
text-decoration: none;
color: #fff;
}

#navlist a:link#current, #navlist a:visited#current, #navlist a:hover
{
border-bottom: 4px solid #FDC737;
padding-bottom: 2px;
background: transparent;
color: #FDC737;
}

#navlist a:hover { color: #fdc737; }

Code:

-----------------------------------------------------
|        |  H1                                           
|image|

Whats the best way to fix font size?

I use CSS. The font size seems to stay fix on IE but not on Mozilla and Netscape.

Also I notice when I use adgui font it stay fix no matter in what browser and no matter at what text view. Why is that. Are there more of this kinda fonts?

Bottom line, whats the best way to fix the size of fonts regardless of browser and at what text view.

Thanks for you help

Well, the title might be a little oversimplified, but I guess it caught your attention

In the past, I always set my font sizes using px. I know that this is not the appropriate standard (since it doesn't allow a user to re-size the font on their end), but I usually did it because it was easiest and most predictable.

Now, I finally want to make the step towards more accessibility and I would like to learn a little bit more about using em's appropriately.

Does anyone have any good advise on how to get started with the following questions: How/where do I set the initial font-size, from which I can use em's? What are the dangers of using em's instead of px? Where could this change impact my usual styling? Are there any good resources/tutorials about this?
Any help/suggestions/ideas are appreciated...

I am new to adsense. I was wondering if I should specify the size of each ad in css (via the div I have around each ad). Or is this unnecessary? (I am not asking if I can change the designated size of the ads in css, but just if I should put in the width and height of the standard ad sizes I have chosen). Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I'm not a programmer by nature, but am picking things up as I go along. I'm working on some forms to make my job easier. Hopefully what I will provide below is enough info to provide a solution. If not, let me know what else you might need.

I understand that this section of CSS manipulates the size and other attributes of the textarea input box:


fieldset div input,fieldset div textarea {
width:150px;
border-top:1px solid #555;
border-left:1px solid #555;
border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;
border-right:1px solid #ccc;
padding:1px;color:#333;
}

What I am looking for is what do I need to add to my CSS and consequent HTML markup to have other textarea input boxes with different attributes? What I really need is to have 4 small boxes within the same div on the same row.

Thanks in advance!!

Hi,

For some reasons, my CSS linked file is not taking any more rules. Is there a maximal number of rules per CSS file?
Thanks
