CSS - Horizontal Scrolling + Divs
Hi all, I'm fairly new at CSS and web development in general, but I've started working on a project which needs an unknown number of divs to be nested inside an external one.
What's happening at the moment is that, if the internal divs are too long, they'll wrap around to the next line. What I need to happen is that a horizontal scrollbar will appear when the internal divs go past the end of the page. I've tried putting "overflow: auto;" on every possible component of the HTML but, so far, there has been no effect. A test version of the code is below and I really hope that someone can help me with this. Thanks! CSS: Code: #main { overflow: auto; } .a { float: left; }
HTML: Code: <body> <div id="main"> <div class="a">supercalifragilisticexpialidocious</div> <div class="a">supercalifragilisticexpialidocious</div> <div class="a">supercalifragilisticexpialidocious</div> <div class="a">supercalifragilisticexpialidocious</div> <div class="a">supercalifragilisticexpialidocious</div> <div class="a">supercalifragilisticexpialidocious</div> <div class="a">supercalifragilisticexpialidocious</div> <div class="a">supercalifragilisticexpialidocious</div> <div class="a">supercalifragilisticexpialidocious</div> <div class="a">supercalifragilisticexpialidocious</div> </div> </body> Similar Tutorialshey guys im having some problems getting this to work in IE 6 but it works fine in FF. Im really not sure whats wrong any help would be great. Code:
<div style="display: block; height:150px; overflow:auto;overflow-x:scroll; overflow-y:scroll; overflow:-moz-scrollbars-horizontal;">
<div style="float:left; white-space: nowrap;">
<img src=\"pic.jpg\" alt=\"gall image\" />

Hi all, I have just found this forum and have an issue to solve... I'm creating my online portfolio and as many photographer I have choosen to use an horizontal scrolling. It works fine on all browsers except IE below version 8. Do you know what can be the trick ? The code is the following : There is a main images container in which two type of images are placed (landscape or portrait orientation) Code: #images {
background-color: #FFF;
overflow: auto;
position: absolute;
left: 0;
right: 0;
height : 600px;
top: 63px;
white-space: nowrap;
z-index:1;
overflow-y: hidden;
}
.imagew {
display: inline-block;
width: 800px;
height: 600px;
text-align: center;
line-height: 600px;
}
.imageh {
display: inline-block;
width: 450px;
height: 600px;
text-align: top;
line-height: 600px;
}
after that the code is : Code: <div id="images"> <div class="imagew"><img alt="" src="offshore/1.jpg"/></div> <div class="imagew"><img alt="" src="offshore/2.jpg"/></div> <div class="imagew"><img alt="" src="offshore/3.jpg"/></div> <div class="imagew"><img alt="" src="offshore/4.jpg"/></div> <div class="imagew"><img alt="" src="offshore/5.jpg"/></div> </div> I have a couple divs using percentage columns. The issue I am having is that when the page is displayed (in IE or FireFox) I am getting the horizontal scrollbar. It scrolls an extra ~15%. I am learning CSS (slowly) so any help would be greatly appreciated. -K html Code:
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="content">
<p>
text
</p>
</div>
</div>
<div id="navigation">
<p>text</p>
</div>
<div id="extra">
<p>text</p>
</div>
Code:
div#wrapper{float:right;width:100%;margin-right:-33%;
display:block;}
div#content{
margin-right:33%;
border-left:2px solid #FFFFFF;
border-left-color:#660000;

}
div#navigation{

div#extra{

clear:left;
width:32.9%
}
p{margin:0 10px 10px}
Hi all, I'm working on a "toolbar" in a site, which users can populate with links and notices as they desire. Since it's possible that they'll put so much into the bar that it wont fit on the screen, I want to make it scroll horizontally - but without scrollbars. I'm hoping to have an area to the left and right of the toolbar that they can mouseover to scroll it in that direction. Here's a pictu I'm not having much luck getting it working, despite trying a few things google turned up... Apparently I can get rid of the scrollbars by having a div with overflow:auto inside one with overflow:hidden... (link) The same site also shows how to only a horizontal scrollbar... (link) I experimented a bit with white-space:nowrap to get the content to stay all on one line, which seems to work in FF (stays on one line inside the horizontally scrolling div) but not IE (stays on one line but stretches the div size)... Any ideas? I'm trying to make one of my current websites compliant with W3C standards by not using marquee tags. The problem is that I still want to keep my horizontal scrolling text (yes, I know there is an issue with accessibility standards but I still need the scrolling text). Anyways, I have found all sorts of ways to use CSS and JavaScript for vertical scrolling text while still being compliant however I have no clue how to do it with horizontal scrolling text. The site I am trying to update is www.gpfbarracudas.org , specifically the scrolling text under the title image. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Josh Hi folks, I'm working on a website at the moment and having some issues 'fixing it' for Internet Explorer. The design scrolls horizontally, and using 'position:fixed;' on certain elements keeps them on the page while the rest scrolls - this works fine in Safari / Camino / Firefox etc. but as we know position:fixed; is broken in IE. I tried applying the fix found at http://web.tampabay.rr.com/bmerkey/...tion-fixed.html but this only seems to work for regular vertical scrolling pages - when scrolled horizontally the "fixed" elements still scroll with the page. Is there any way possible to get this to work? I really really want to avoid any of those javascript "jumpy" scripts to reposition the element all the time. Thanks all. I don't have an external webserver so i'll explain as best I can. I have a left and right section of my webpage each with their own background. The problem is a white gap between to the two backgrounds. I set the margin and padding on everything to 0 and it has no effect. This occurs in IE and FF. PHP Code: <html> <head> <style> body {margin: 0; padding: 0;} .left {float: left; background-image: url('background_left.jpg'); height: 100%; width: 300px; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-attachment: fixed; margin: 0; padding: 0;} .right {background-image: url('background_right.jpg'); background-repeat: repeat-x; height: 100%; margin: 0; padding: 0;} .menu {} .content {} </style> </head> <body> <div class="left"> <div class="menu"> </div> </div> <div class="right"> <div class="content"> </div> </div> </body> </html> I'm trying to scroll a div when the mouse is over the div. the div has the auto value for the overflow property. Is this possible and if so could someone help me out on how to do it? I was thinking something using the javascript document.getelementbyId() but i can't figure out what property to use. Thanks Hi! I want to have let's say 4 divs of width:25% horizontally side-by-side. Ex: (I'll ry to draw it ) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Thank you. Ok, so I've learned to stay away from tables when you don't need them, and I have an instance where this is the case. I have a container div that has a header, content and a footer. On my home page, I have to divs next to each other with the same height and a div below them towards the right. To simplify my problem, look at this example. Code:
<html>
<body>
<div style="float:right">
Hello there!
</div>
<hr>
</body>
</html>
If there's a "float:right" on that div, the hr tag below doesn't get pushed down. But if I use relative positioning and don't use the floats, I can't put the two top divs next to each other. The other option is to use absolute positioning, but again content below doesn't get pushed down correctly. It seems that using "clear:both" works, but it seems weird that this has to be done. For example if I have floating divs in a container, I can get them to stretch out the container like so: Code:
<html>
<body>
<div style="border: 1px solid #000; ">
<div style="float:right">
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
Hello there!<br />
</div>
<div style="clear: both"></div>
</div>
<hr>
</body>
</html>
Am I missing something fundamental here? Is there a better solution? Thanks in advance. Centering DIVs inside other DIVs in Firefox? Can it be done in a straight forward way? Setting the inner DIVs float to none seemed to work for IE but not FF. Here's the site in Question: http://www.winchps.vic.edu.au It's a standard fixed width floated DIV columns with a wrapper. One thing it does have is a second DIV inside both columns to display the Gradient background over the top of the repeated background. It works perfect in Firefox & IE7 (with a tweak) but IE6 mkes the sidebar nested div drop below the original sidebar DIV click here for a screenshot for those lucky enough not to have IE6. Here's the CSS code for the basic layout: Code:
body {
font-family: 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;
font-size: 12px;
text-align: center;
margin: 0px 0px 60px 0px;
padding:0px;
border: 0;
line-height: 2;
}
#header {
width: 802px;
}
#wrapper {
width: 802px;
margin:0px;
padding: 0px;
text-align: left;
margin: 0 auto;
background: url(images/bodybg.jpg) center repeat-y;
}
#content {
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
}
#maingrad {
background: url(images/winchcontentgrad.jpg) top left repeat-x;
padding: 10px;
}
#main {
width: 589px;
float: right;
background: url(images/winchcontentbg.jpg) repeat;
border-left: solid 1px #000;
border-right: solid 1px #000;
}
#mainstop {
width: 589px;
float: right;
background: url(images/winchcontentbg.jpg) repeat;
border-left: solid 1px #000;
border-right: solid 1px #000;
border-bottom: solid 1px #000;
font-size: 10px;
}
#sidebargrad {
background: url(images/winchsidebargrad.jpg) top left repeat-x;
padding: 10px 5px 0px 10px;
}
#sidebar {
width: 200px;
float: left;
background: url(images/winchsidebg.jpg) repeat;
line-height: 2;
font-size: 14px;
border-left: solid 1px #000;
border-right: solid 1px #000;
}
I obviously need to put a conditional comment in there, same for what I did for the minor IE7 tweak, but I'm struggling to suss out what's causing it, I haven't found the specific issue on any of the regular sites (PIE etc). Anyone got any ideas? The Example I've read a bunch about how div's won't stretch to accomidate div's inside of them if they overrun the height/min-height set for the container div. How do I get around this? You can see the skeleton of the site above. It's fine unless you resize the window smaller than the content. Alright, I've been working on my own custom border box for a while and I've almost got it, but it has a few problems still. How I do it is I have one div that contains it all (.box) that defines the height and width of the whole box. Then I have three boxRows to lay out the images, and then I define how three cells in each of those rows should behave, very much like how custom borders used to be done with tables. Here are the problems: In both firefox and internet explorer, the bottom row and the far right column actually appear OUTSIDE the .box containing box. There are two additional problems in internet explorer. First, the middle row handles the auto height differently and only expands about 10px instead of the height of the containing box. The second is that the whole middle row for some reason appears to be pushed to the right by about 16px. Any help would be appreciated. Here's the code: HTML: Code: <html> <head> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="reset.css" /> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="testBox.css"> </head> <body> <div class="box"> <div class="boxRowTop"> <div class="boxCellLeft"></div> <div class="boxCellMiddle"></div> <div class="boxCellRight"></div> </div> <div class="boxRowMiddle"> <div class="boxCellLeft"></div> <div class="boxCellMiddle"></div> <div class="boxCellRight"></div> </div> <div class="boxRowBottom"> <div class="boxCellLeft"></div> <div class="boxCellMiddle"></div> <div class="boxCellRight"></div> </div> </body> </html> And here is the layout css file: Code: /* Box classes */
.box {
background: rgb(120,120,120);
height: 200px;
width: 500px;
}
.boxRowTop {
height: 16px;
position: relative;
width:%100;
}
.boxRowMiddle {
height: auto;
width:%100;
position: relative;
}
.boxRowBottom {
height: 16px;
width:%100;
position: relative;
}
.boxCellLeft {
height: 100%;
left: 0;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
width: 16px;
}
.boxCellMiddle {
height: 100%;
margin-left: 16px;
margin-right: 16px;
width: auto;
}
.boxCellRight {
height: 100%;
left: 100%;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
width: 16px;
}
/* Define Cell Backgrounds/Images */
.boxRowTop .boxCellLeft {
background: url(../LandingImages/topleft_circ_corner.png) no-repeat;
}
.boxRowTop .boxCellMiddle {
background: url(../LandingImages/top_border.png) repeat-x;
}
.boxRowTop .boxCellRight {
background: url(../LandingImages/topright_circ_corner.png) no-repeat;
}
.boxRowMiddle .boxCellLeft {
background: url(../LandingImages/left_border.png) repeat-y;
}
.boxRowMiddle .boxCellMiddle {
background: rgb(255,255,255);
}
.boxRowMiddle .boxCellRight {
background: url(../LandingImages/right_border.png) repeat-y;
}
.boxRowBottom .boxCellLeft {
background: url(../LandingImages/bottomleft_circ_corner.png) no-repeat;
}
.boxRowBottom .boxCellMiddle {
background: url(../LandingImages/bottom_border.png) repeat-x;
}
.boxRowBottom .boxCellRight {
background: url(../LandingImages/bottomright_circ_corner.png) no-repeat;
}
And last, the reset CSS, which I don't think has anything to do with the problems because if I take it out it still has them. Code: html, body, div, span, applet, object, iframe, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, p, blockquote, pre,
a, abbr, acronym, address, big, cite, code, del, dfn, em, img, ins, kbd, q, s, samp,
small, strike, strong, tt, var, dl, dt, dd, ol, ul, li,
fieldset, form, label, legend, caption

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated, as I've been working on this for a while! Thanks! Hi guys, I've this div with overflow:auto. This div is populated using xmlhttprequest (it's an IM chat) so it will be getting full to the point where there's an overflow and the scrollbar shows up. What I would like to do is, whenever a new content line was added to the div (I'm using DOM to do so), the scroll (if overflow has happened) would go all the way down in a way where the last line of visible text in the div would always be the last line inserted. I'm somewhat newbie at this stuff so, any help in the right direction would be great! Thx Hugo Hey guys!! I got a quick question. I have a CSS layout page with 2 scrollbars. The first one for a news section and the second for a product. I have a lot of content for both sections, The scrollbars work fine, but on the main IE the scrollbars keep adjusting to the content that I have. if i have less content then its small..... I want to have no scrolling on my main window. Good morning, I have a problem with a layer(div) that I am putting over my page everytime the user clicks a button and a transaction is send to the host. My problem is that if there is an scroll and the user scroll, the message scrolls up and dissapears. I need to fix it to the center of the screen. I have tried with % instead of absolute px. Can anyone help me, please?. I am close to my deadline, so any help would be really apreciated. I am attaching my code: window.onbeforeunload=new Function("Procesando.style.visibility='visible';"); window.onblur=new Function("Procesando.style.visibility='hidden';"); //window.onfocus=new Function("Procesando.style.visibility='hidden';"); document.write('<div style="position:absolute; top:160; left:313; visibility:hidden; overflow:hidden; background-color:#CCCCCC; clip:rect(12,177,50,3); " id="Procesando">\n'+ '<select size=4 name="cbEspera" class="TextoTablaIzq" style="background-color:#CCB8E0; font-Weight:bold;">\n'+ '<option> </option>\n'+ '<option> Procesando su petici'+unescape("%F3")+'n. </option>\n'+ '<option> Espere por favor... </option>\n'+ '<option> </option>\n'+ '</select></div>\n'); Can someone point me to a tutorial (or if it's easy enough, just show me here) where I can learn how to make a scrolling div? Ideally, one that looks like this (this would be on a black-backgrounded page): Thanks!... I've made an image to explain my problem pretty well : imgur dot com /n8uOX (apparently I am not allowed to posts links , however its kinda hard for me to explain the problem so its easier to just show it) basically i want my page to always be rendered as I intended it to. I am pretty sure my coding is quite bad and thats what caused the problem , yet if anyone have any way to fix this please post in this thread. Thanks |
