CSS - Display Text Only When Printing
Alrite,
Im having a little trouble hiding text and then showing the text only on the printout of the page. Here is what I have so far: Setting up Style tags: PHP Code: <style type="text/CSS"> #inc { display:none; //hides text on page } </style> <style type="text/CSS" media="print"> #omit { display:none; //hides text on printout } </style> ... that bit works fine, it is this bit I am struggling with, how do I write the following: PHP Code: <style type="text/CSS" media="print"> #inc { display:??? what goes here ???; //show text on printout } </style> ... here is the #inc being called: PHP Code: <span id="inc"> <font face="Arial" size="3" color="#000000">Text </span> ... so the #inc is called to hide the text on the page but displays text on printout. Am I going in the right direction??? Thanks Nick Similar TutorialsI use a css class to control my text around an image, but it does not print floated. Instead it prints like they are block elements. Code: img.newsthumb{ float: left; clear: left; padding-right: 5px; border: 0px; } img.newsthumb2{ float: right; clear: right; padding-left: 5px; border: 0px; } Any clue on how to fix this. Im deriving a list of photos with information from my database. I want to be able to print the webpage off without any of the information being broken up between pages. Since its coming from the database I cant just use page breaks cause then I get one image per page. Is there a solution to this? Here's the issue... When the site loads, you'll see the h3 text for a second (on the right), then it gets covered up by the side boxes. I've tried using z-index for my h3 tags so they "hover" over the side boxes, but to no avail. Here's the link: http://www.infothreads.com/ Oddly, all the links show up above the side boxes, but not the h3 text. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Hi I have the html below and I only want to display the "initial text" and the "some more text" bits of text. Is this possible using only CSS without any modifications to the html e.g. adding id's ? <div id="snav"> <p><span id="somespan">You are he <a title="home page" href="/content/index.html">Home</a> <a href="http://www,saving.com">initial text here </a><br />Some more Text here.</span></p> </div> thanks. G Damnit. Differing browser box models piss me off. I guess thats what you get for being a web developer, where someone can use 6+ different programs to run your code. I just started doing design with divs instead of tables and man what a PITA. I really like the idea of "building blocks" tho (and I really hate the inflexibility of tables), so I'm trying to grind through it. Its a small project, however, so I havent really been able to test cross-browser compatibility too much. I'm running into a strange error in IE (sidenote: the page does seem to be handled correctly in Opera (though Firefox jacks the page up totally)). Anyways, I have a series of nested divs (to emulate the structure of a table). Everything looks fine until I start messing around with divs with a display of 'none'. When I insert a div (or set a current div's) with display = 'none', part of the form input text will "flow over" outside of the div. In the pictured example, "Zachary Wedgeworth" is the last entry in the selectbox. There is no code / html after that selectbox, but as you can see, "Wedgeworth" appears after it! It isnt even able to be highlighted! The second line of the form contains a div with style='display:none'. If there's no div containing anything to do with display, this "overflow" error doesnt occur. There should be no difference in inserting a non-displayed div vs. never putting the div in the code at all, but (in IE at least), there is. stupid & frustrating. Has anyone run into this problem or have any idea why this might be occuring? Its already stumped a couple fellow programmers. Hi I've got a testpage, with everything removed except the problem which occurs in Firefox http://ied.gospelcom.net/tester.php There is a mouseover popup, which is toggled from hidden to visible by onmouseover on some of the table cells. The CSS for this is #reportalert {visibility:hidden;} This is not a javascript problem because it happens with js disabled. I have removed the JS toggle script from this page, so you won't even see this happen. As soon as I have the div with id="reportalert" anywhere on the page, its presence prevents a cursor appearing in the textarea. It does, in fact, have focus, because you can type in it. But it is disconcerting not to appear to have focus. It is as if the 'visibility:hidden' of the div somehow leaks out to affect the cursor. I have tried all sort of things, such as putting visibility:visible on the text area, or its whole TD. Any other ideas I could try? thanks Tony I want to display a byline in front of my logo. The byline is text, and the logo is an image (not a background image). Here is the existing code where I have inserted the new block element 'byline' in the HTML and CSS. The logo img is aligned in the center (align=center), and the byline is to sit on top of that logo slightly to the left of center of the logo image. All code and CSS is currently validated.

I was wanting the footer text to display in a straight line, but it's displaying horizontally. Could you please look at my HTML and CSS coding and see if I had made an error: Code: www.wendyhenrichs.com/huy Thanks! Hello, this is my first attempt at a website and first attempt at using CSS as well. With much reading and the help of an online CSS layout creator I've been able to get pretty far, but have been having many roadblocks recently. For instance, the second heading in my layout is not displaying correctly in IE, but looks fine in FireFox. Please take a look at http://www.onlinecasinoboss.com/new_page_1.htm The second heading should lay directly underneath heading number 1, with a 2px margin in between header 2 and the main page layout. Also the text in the right, left and center columns starts as if it had a 12px or greater top margin. This problem exists in BOTH IE and FF. Please help, and thanks for anyone that takes the time to help a newbie web designer out. Hi. Lets say I've a div with width:300px and then there're some user generated content (Example: aaaaaaaaaa.....) that was so long without any whitespace that exceed the lenght of the div. Right now that word gone pass the right border of my div. Is there a way to style it so the word will not pass the right border and actually moved to the next line? I was thinking about changing the div as display table but maybe I don't want to do that and not sure if that will do it as well. The reason I don't want to use display as table because it's not compatiable to older browser. Is there any way to prevent this type of behaviour? Thanks. Hi All, Here's my issue... I have decided to try an all css-based layout which will incorporate: 1. a background image (770px wide) that repeats on the y axis in the BODY tag 2. a background image that will not repeat in a DIV tag that is slightly less wide (750px) than the BODY tag's background image The background image in the BODY will repeat on the y axis and provide a backdrop and edges that extend beyond and below the background image contained in the DIV tag which will also contain the main content/text for the site. [ Note: The background-image in the DIV tag is 631px in height. ] The problem is as follows: Since I do not have enough text to extend the content DIV to the height of the background image and/or beyond, the background image is not being fully displayed; the top and bottom of the background image is being cut off and the image as a whole is being pushed upward at the same time. To see the problem: http://publictrust.ca/css/default.htm The css is as follows: body { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #260D0D; font-size: 0.8em; background-color: #260D0D; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; background-image: url(../images/body-bg.jpg); background-repeat: repeat-y; background-position: center center; } #divHeader { margin: 0px; width: 750px; color: #260D0D; } #divMain { background-color: #EDCCA1; background-image: url(../images/container-bg.jpg); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: center center; width: 750px; color: #260D0D; } #divFooter { text-align: center; font-size: 0.7em; margin: 25px 0 0 0; } #divHeader, #divMain, #divFooter { width:750px; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: auto; color: #260D0D; } #leftMenu { float:left; margin:130px 0 0 5px; padding: 0px; width:150px; } #divMainContent { float:right; width:500px; margin: 150px 5px 50px 5px; border-top: 1px solid #260D0D; } The css file can be downloaded at: http://publictrust.ca/css/css/template_css2.css Caveat: the solution must work in IE and mozilla/netscape AND when I add more text to the main content area, the DIV must stretch downwards to accommodate the extra text *without* changing the height of the divHeader & divFooter. Thanks in Advance, mne 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; } Hi, I'm having a slight problem with my css. I want to display a comment with a number of images to the right of it. e.g "Excellent" plus 5 stars next to it (note: images of stars) so i tried this: Code: <div id = "commentText"> Excellent </div> <div id = "star"> </div> <div id = "star"> </div> <div id = "star"> </div> <div id = "commentText"> Fantastic </div> <div id = "star"> </div> <div id = "star"> </div> <div id = "star"> </div> <div id = "star"> </div> css Code: #commentText { font-size: 100%; color: #000000; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: normal; padding-left: 30px; } #star { display: inline; height: 24px; background-image: url(images/star.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; padding-left: 20px; } I currently have comment with 3 stars displayed underneath it - however they are only half being shown for some reason. Any help is appreciated to help me get the desired effect. Thanks! Hiya, This page http://www.magikwebs.co.uk/ranch/indian.html wasn't printing too good so I've set up a stylesheet for print only, and it has improved, but it still doesn't quite look right. It leaves a big gap on page 2 and misses a line out. It looks 100% fine in Firefox. I guess it's an IE bug. Anyone know what it is and how to avoid it? Thanks, John Hello, I was wondering how to link to print a single ID without printing anything else... thanx=) Hi ! I've read that it's possible with CSS to adapt the visual style of a web page on the output medium. If I didn't understand that completely wrong, it means that with CSS I can format a String like "Hello World" to give him font size 10 in my browser and font size 20 if i print the page. Is this correct ? Does someone of you habe any kind of coding example therefore ? That would be great TIA Gawan I have a page that displays text of an article. It's all contained in a <DIV>, of course. I'd like the "Print" option the allow the user to print out just the article, and not the rest of the crap on the page (ads, navigation, so on.) I know vaguely that you can have alternate style sheets for printing and other types of display, but how to include just the text in the output? Ok, I've google a bit, and come up with http://home.tampabay.rn.com/bmerkey...scape-test.html, but it seems to fail if I try printing tables in Landscape. It's for an intranet ap, using IE6 predominantly but also needs to work in Moz. Does anyone know of a way to do this with tables? Hello, I have an issue when printing a page in IE7. The page is located at http://www.northridgeltd.com/test_site/northridge_team.php when you print, the content from two employees bunches up at the bottom of the first page. Anyone have any ideas?
