CSS - Float Problem With Css In Netscape
Hi..
I'm having a problem with floating on a CSS stylesheet. For some reason my text keeps apearing way off to the right of where it is supposed to.. It works fine with IE but not with Netscape. Any ideas? You can view the page he www.localalberta.com The CSS: www.localalberta.com/completeStyle.css Thanks Guys.. Similar TutorialsHi there, I'm back again I'm afriad with another minor problem with my new site design. Have a look at the test version of my website he http://www.eveythingfree.buildtolearn.net/classifieds/ If you are looking at it in Internet Explorer it should look fine, but if you try it in Mozilla Firefox or Netscape it looks badly messed up. The problem is with the 2 boxes near the top of the page, the "latest forum posts" one and the "search box". The whole page (from bellow the navbar) is laid out by the php script that generates most of the content of the site. Thus I am limited in what I can adjust but I can use .css to layout these two boxes. Here is the css that controls the forum and search boxes: Code:
.forums {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
color: #666666;
text-decoration: none;
border: 1px solid #666666;
padding: 5px 10px 10px;
background-color: #F9F9F9;
position: relative;
width: 453px;
height: 100px;
left: 10px;
top: 10px;
vertical-align: top;
margin-bottom: 10px;
float: left;
}
.searchbox {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
color: #666666;
text-decoration: none;
border: 1px solid #666666;
background-color: #F9F9F9;
width: 230px;
height: 100px;
left: 20px;
vertical-align: top;
margin-bottom: 10px;
padding-top: 15px;
top: 10px;
position: relative;
}
.listings {
position: relative;
top: 10px;
}
Now I'm pretty sure that the problem lies with the "float" property in .forums. I seem to recall Mozilla and Netscape don't recognise this in the same way IE does. Is there a way of making the site look the same in other browsers as it does in IE? Without the "float" property I have failed to get it to look right, but there must be some way around this problem. I'd really appreciate any help, as this one thing has been holding me back for ages! Thanks, Robert Hello everyone, I am having some problems making my website show the same in all browsers (this is not a doctype problem, I am using a proper one). My problem is with float:left, and here is how I am using it on my website at the moment: Code: #ctr1{float:left;width:189px;}
#ctr2{float:left;width:590px;}
<div id="ctr1">blahblahblah</div>
<div id="ctr2">blahblahblah</div>
This shows fine with IE, but with all the Netscape based browsers (NS, Mozilla, Moz Firefox).. and also in Opera, it shows wrong. Is there anything I can use instead of float:left? Thanks. Hi, I have an irritating issue with netscape 6.2 on the PC. I have a div that is floated left and this div contains two child divs, also flaoted left. My understanding is that the parent div should be stretched by its children and this is what happens in msie 5.5+, mozilla firefox, netscape 7 and all the decent Mac browsers. Not however NS 6.2. Does anbody know why or a way of making it behave properly? Here is my code: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

many thanks Hello all, When trying to position:absolute an object within another relatively positioned and left floated in netscape 7.1, for some reason the contained element ignores the parents position:relative property and goes to the top left edge of the body. Try www.signplanning.com in Netscape 7.1 and you will see that compared to I.E. the left-side is pushed up and it should look like the Internet Explorer. Thanks in advanced. BAF I've been trying get a template working to transfer my site over to CSS (I've been reading about it and it seems to be the way to go) - have been working on it all weekend and have cracked a 3 column grid that seems to work well. You can see where I've got to he http://www.discographynetwork.com/nav2.php The only small problem I have in ie is a missing pixel to the left of the home button. If you have a suggestion for that I'd be grateful. However, when I looked at it in Mozilla and Netscape the buttons mess up and the tag line doesn't stay in it's div. Can someone point me in the right direction. Thanks. Hi, i have 2 links with email and website. After visited these two links, both should appear yellow (a:visited). Well, with the IE everything functions marvelously, but with the Netscape only one link (website) functioned, but email does not activate itself yellow after the attendance. Here is the Code: Code:
style type="text/css">
<!--
a:link {color: #000000; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10px; text-decoration:none; }
a:visited {color: #ffff00; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10px; text-decoration:none;}
a:hover {color: #ffcc33; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10px; text-decoration:none;}

the site seems to work perfectly in IE. it gets garbled in netscape. i know its something to do with the box conventions and the way the browsers interpret margin/border/padding etc.. heres the link to my site http://ccc.1asphost.com/pacemakerproject/final%20website%20folder/index.htm is there an easy way to resolve this problem.. I am using a table with 5 rows and 5 columns of data. First i hide <td>'s using style.display="none"; When i use style.display=""; for showing up <td>'s , in IE its working fine, but in Netscape 7.1 (Windows) the columns get collapsed on one another. Can anybody know why this happens ? Is there any other way it can solved. Need help pls. subject isn't too good anyhow.. i have 4 cells __ __ |1 | |2 | --- --- __ __ |3| |4 | --- --- 2 and 4 are said to float right, such that 1 and 3 define the height of the page.. but.. when the contents of 2 go LONGER than the contents of 1, number 4 doesn't float right properly.. instead this happens __ __ |1 | |2 | --- | | --- | | |4| --- --- __ |3| --- do you see that? 4 tries to float right, but since it's called underneath 1, and 2 is extended, floating right relative to the page doesn't make it ACTUALLY float right any thoughts that will render this properly? (namely that cells 1 and 3 will inherit the height of 2 and 4 somehow?) I understand IE has many problems with 'float' in css. I've got a new layout I'm working on for a site, and everything is working great on it except one element on IE6. Part of the page, seen below, looks great on FF, Safari, & IE7: However, IE6 shows up as: Here's the CSS that governs this part of the layout: Code: div.search_and_cart div.account_box{
border: 1px solid #808080;
}
div.search_and_cart div.account_box p{
padding: 8px;
}
div.search_and_cart div.account_box div.checkout_button{
float: right;
width: 80px;
line-height: 30px;
text-align: center;
background-color: #F68428;
border: 0;
margin: 0;
border-top: 1px solid #808080;
}
div.search_and_cart div.account_box div.checkout_button a{
color: #FFF;
text-decoration: none;
font-weight: bold;
}
div.search_and_cart div.account_box div.cart_contents{
width: 153px;
line-height: 30px;
padding-left: 5px;
color: #FFF;
background-color: #808080;
border-top: 1px solid #808080;
}
Then here's the HTML: Code: <div class="account_box"> <p><span style="color: #000;">ACCOUNT</span><br /> See order status</p> <div class="checkout_button"><a href="#">CHECKOUT</a></div> <div class="cart_contents">2 items in my cart</div> </div> Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Hi all, I am in a rush, and stumped, check out this page (in Internet Explorer 7): http://72.167.22.172/new/programs.php?t=8 See the footer? Any insight? (works fine in firefox etc.) I have the following pretty straight forward and simple layout borders For some reason the "right" floated div "Add Account" is not going to the right in FF3. Code:

It renders correctly in FF2, IE6 and IE7, but I just can't figure how why it won't display correctly in FF3 (version 3.0.5 to be precise) - just when I thought I'd finally "mastered" most css issues! Any help greatly appreciated. http://www.browsercam.com/public.aspx?proj_id=170622 You can see what it's supposed to look like along with the windows 98 version screwed up and the windows 2000 version screwed up. I can't figure out what's causing my navigation div and content divs to not float over. I have a master container or everything and a main div that holds my navigation and content div's to 760px PHP Code: #master{ width:760px; margin:auto; } #main{ float:left; width:100%; padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px; } Can anyone give me any ideas what's causing the mess up? By the way the design works in all other browsers I test with. Hello, I have developed some very simple code. This code is working well on FireFox (and also netscape) and Operan but not well on IE6. The code is very simple. I have a div tag that containes two other div's. One div contains text to be aligned to the left (using float: left) and another div contains a list (ul) to be aligned to the right (using float: right). The following is the code I have so far: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<style>
.leftText {
float: left;
}
.rightText {
float: right;
}
.top ul {
width: 100%;
text-align:center;
margin: 0;
padding-left: 0;
border: 0;
list-style-type:none;
}
.top ul li {
display: inline;
text-align: center;
float:left;
border-right:none;
background-image: none;
padding-left: 5px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="top">
<div class="leftText">
This is the text on the left.
</div>
<div class="rightText">
<ul>
<li>one</li>
<li>two</li>
<li>three</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Now I did some testing before posting here. First of all I tried to hack it. What I did is add *float: right; inside the .top ul li {...} element. This naturally was not cought by FireFox and Opera, and thus the website still looked fine on these browsers. However when I tried it on IE6 I had a surprose. The list was alligned to the right, but instead of writing "one two three", it wrote "three two one". I do not know how best to solve it, and be greatfull for any advise. thanks and regards, sim085 I started a new post on this one because it is something I have just noticed in FireFox, but not in IE6. I have created a new html page with a top, middle and bottom div sections. The middle section contains two other div's, left and right. All these div's I wraped inside another div called container. What I did (with CSS) is set the container with a width of 400px, and a solid red border. I then set the top and bottom with a height of 40px each. I did not set the height of the middle section since that would grow according to its content. The right div I set it as float:right and the left div I set it as float:left. This worked fine but then I decided to set the bottom div as float:left ... and it broke in FireFox In FireFox, the container wraped only around the top div, and the other middle and bttom div remained outside that white container. Here is the code I used: 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 {
margin: 0;
text-align: center;
padding: 10px;
background: #00ff00;
}
.container{
width: 400px;
margin: 0 auto 10px auto;
padding: 0;
text-align: left;
background: #ffffff;
border: 1px solid #d1c7ac;
}
.top {
height: 40px;
}
.middle{
/*
can not put height here,
since the middle section
data changes from page
to page.
*/
}
.left {
float: left;
width: 200px;
}
.right {
float: right;
width: 200px;
}
.bottom {
height: 40px;
float: right;
}
</style>
</head>

As I said this problem only apears in FireFox, and in IE6 it does not show. I know I am doing something wrong, mostly because I still do not know all about what a float do. I know it is because of the float thing. because what I did is add an (space) before the end of the container div wraped around the middle, bottom and float as well. I am sorry for posting yet another question on floats. Thanks for any advise and sugestions. regards, sim085 thanks in advance for the help! if you can take a look at the code below, you will see that all the subcontents are not aligned right. i am trying to display subcontent1, subcontent2 and subcontent3 in row1. then, repeat it for row2. so it will look like 3 cols X 2 row table. what i am doing wrong? <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>Untitled Document</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <style type="text/css"> #content { margin-left: 200px; border-left: 1px solid gray; margin-right: 200px; border-right: 1px solid gray; padding: 1em; } #subcontent2 {float:left; height:50px; margin:0 0 .2em .5em; background:#eee8aa; border:1px solid black; } #subcontent3 {float:right; height:50px; margin:0 0 .2em 0; background-color:#CCCCCC; border:2px dotted red;} #subcontent1 {margin-left:400px; border:1px solid blue; margin-right:150px; padding:1em; } #subcontent p {margin:0 0 .5em .5em; font-family:Verdana; font-size:11px; background-color:#CCCCCC; border:1px solid black; text-align:center } </style> </head> <body> <div id="content"><h2>Subheading</h2> <p>fg gdhoiuw eiouhe viouwbfu8igdofi goiwehviuh eropihpvoih epfiovhpoefvh fbv iopwehfviu teopiuhrguioh gfdg tgt wg</p> <p>afd dfouighoiweh oiehoiuehoiu iuashfoiuerfiugeroigriugh lirduivh lrehv ioperviuherviuo qouitrhvui tgvwre</p> <p>rg uwtdh guoiseh uisgoiunb oiutruighepguihgptuhg dfhgpeorhv oiuhgoihetoishgoi </p> <p>sdfgdf gwetguh reigqre uyreaiu qeroi er fdgfg thgwrtighuroiu og9hghgtuih wtpghwepipeg ptbsrthb </p> <div id="subcontent2">dfgdghureuererg uiruykerf fgsgs gsgh sdg sfg fdsgg</div> <div id="subcontent1"><p id="st3">zones:</p><select name="selZone" size="10" multiple class="sel1"> <option value="%%">* Select One *</option> <option value="1">Ferrari</option> <option value="2">Lamborghini</option> <option value="4">Porsche</option> <option value="5">Konigssen</option> </select></div> <hr align="right" width="276" id="dV"> <div id="subcontent2">dsfwuy rbefuyerwfy erg</div> <div id="subcontent1"> <textarea name="s" rows="10" cols="10"> fiyrqeyfreuyf uuyqfyu fgg tg sdgsgfdg teg tg tg wgtgtrg rgregfwregfwgwg wtgrtg rtghtrghg trgtrgtrg</textarea></div> <div id="subcontent3">this is subcontent3</div> </div> </body> </html> Hi, I wonder if there's anyone out there who can help with an issue I'm having.

The #main2 div loses it's position in IE6 and 7. Any help would be massively appreciated. Anyway I can refer you to the page as a new user? :/ maybe - www dot twistystraws dot com / test dot html Thanks. |
