CSS - Vertically Aligning Next To Div
I started out working out a page thinking this *should* do what I want and lo and behold it did work in IE6
http://www.fogcat.co.uk/example/test002.html But when looking at Firefox it goes all odd. If you remove all the internal "imagediv" div from the "imagechunk" div it nearly works but doesn't algin the "link text" like IE. I'm told that display:inline-block is not properly supported, which is probably the root of my problems. What I want a set of divs down the page (the "imagedivs") Each div will contain An image - but that image will be nested inside a div - it's returned that way from a php function. Images may be of varying height so I can't use pixel values at top margins or anything like that. A link to another page The link should be positioned to the right of the image and aligned vertically with the centre of the image. This is one of those things that's a doddle with tables, but I'm trying to train myself to think CSS. What obvious thing am I over looking? Code: +--------------------------------------+ | +----------------+ | | | .............. | | --- <div> | | : : | | ... <img> | | : : | Link here | | | : : | | | | .............. | | | +----------------+ | +--------------------------------------+ +--------------------------------------+ | +----------------+ | | | .............. | | | | : : | | | | : : | Link here | | | : : | | | | .............. | | | +----------------+ | +--------------------------------------+ Similar TutorialsSo I'm still on my quest to be able to create my 1st entirely CSS site, and need some help as I'm not sure how to do this. I want to be able to align a navigation list at the bottom right of the content area. Also while I'm at it, I want the site to be at a minimum 462px (just an example), but would like for it to increase in height if the content itself expands beyond the 462. And the navigation menu, I'd like to somehow keep at the bottom right of the viewable area. Thanks... here's the code...

Hi guys, I am trying to display two forms with several elements on a page. I would like to place the two forms on the webpage so that one is displayed on the left and the other on the right of the screen. Something like this URL http://craigbaldwin.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/52.jpg I have written the following test and the forms are placed correctly inside the left and right divs. Code:
<HTML>
<Head>
<style type="text/css">
div.wrapper {
position: relative;
clear: both;
width: 100%;
border : 1px solid #000000;
}
div.left {
float: left;
width: 50%;
background: #ffffff;
border : 1px solid #000006;
}
div.right {
float: right;
width: 50%;
background: #ffffff;
border : 1px solid #000001;
}
</style>
</Head>
<Body>
<div class="wrapper">Wrapper
<div class="left">Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box </div>
<div class="right">Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box </div>

A couple of problems with the above. 1. In Internet explorer the divs are aligned correctly but in firefox it gets all messy. 2. As long as the window is maximised then i the divs are aligned vertically correctly. If i resize the browser window then they are no longer aligned vertically. Is there a way to make them always next to each other from left to right even if the window is resized? (try resizing the window for the example i showed above) Thanks I have a navigation bar that contains four images (side by side) as well as three text links. They all live within a <div> with the following properties: #gNav { width:768px; height:19px; text-align:left; vertical-align:middle; } i need for the three text links to line up directly in the middle (vertically) of that <div>. To achieve this in IE6 and NN+, I attach the following style to the text. .nookum { font-size:.9em; vertical-align: 25%; color:#FFFFFF; } I just learned that the vertical-align property is not recognized by IE5 and IE5.5, so in those versions, the text aligns at the bottom of the <div>. Anyone know of any workarounds or other methods of vertically aligning text that will work in these two versions of IE? Hi, Just upgraded my monitor and am now operating on a 1280*1024 resolution. Previous website I have built have been for 1024*768 resolutions. Problem is now that some of my images are placed at the top of the screen when I want them in the middle... not with a load of blank space beneath them. I want the blank space equally around them. Anyway, I'm specifically talking about the website I have: http://www.atari-music.co.uk The front and home-pages suffer from this problem when viewed on > 1024*768 resolutions. I have attempted to fix the problem (though it is not in the code for the on-line version) by putting this into the style sheet:- IMG.middle { vertical-align: middle; } In the HTML for the image map I have:- <IMG class="middle" src="images/home.jpg" height="570" width="760" alt="ATARI - The Official Website" border="0" usemap="#siteMap"/> Am I not referencing the CSS code correctly? The image is still sitting, vertically aligned to the top. Cheers, Rob. At http://www.rietgors.tudelft.nl/combo/ you can see what I'm trying to do. I'd like the two elements to have either the same top or bottom, or have both elements centered vertically in the enclosing DIV. Can this be done using just CSS? I'm wworking on a CSS template and I'm trying to vertically align two divs.... one on top of the other with a five pixel margin between the two.... However, unless I use a bunch of HTML breaks (which will result in an uneven template), I can't figure out how to do it. I've tried to vertical-align them and etc. Any help is appreciated. Oh, I know my code could be a bit more clean, this is just a comp. I've also tested this on FF so far. I doubt IE will return favourable results either. My example: www.efacln.com/Untitled-1.html My CSS code: Code:
#container
{
MARGIN: 5px;
}
#header_container
{
border-color: black;

I have #sidebar on my website and within the sidebar which contains two smaller divs (Calender and Archive) inside it which are styled by #sidebar div When I put these two divs in, Calender wasn't where I wanted it to be, at the very top of the sidebar. It was a few pixels lower. To fix I went to #sidebar div and changed the top margin to -1px and now it's at the very top. Is this a sensible fix? I've checked in Chrome 2.0, Safari 4.0, Firefox 3.5 and IE 8 and it looks to be OK but there's a nagging feeling in my head that I shouldn't have needed to do this.

If someone could take a look that would be great. I've commented it up for you so you should be able to find the divs easily. The code has been verified. I'm not a great web designer by any stretch of the imagination. I'm learning as I go along so hopefully someone with more knowledge can help me out. I need the text "world leaders in spirometry" to be on the same base line as the text in the logo image for Vitalograph to the left of it. This is what I want it to look like image link This is what does look like web page link Here is the CSS css link How can I get abosolute vertical placement of the text best for firefox and IE? I know I could put the tage into the logo as one image, but for SEO I would like to have the text there if possible. Thanks! Hi, I am trying to achieve a layout which uses unordered lists. Within the LI, there is an image and some text. The images are all different heights though. The issue i'm having at the moment is how can I make the text vertically align within the LI? Keep in mind that I can't put a height on as each image changes height. And these lists will be generated dynamically probably - so I don't really want to specify individual heights for each one... To make it even more difficult, the text may end up spanning onto two lines at some stage if i have to enter a larger description - so that also needs to be kept in mind. I've been looking around all morning for examples of how to do this and I can't find anything - so any help would be greatly appreciated!!! Here is what I'm trying to achieve: http://www.joshsphotos.com/user_interface/final_look.gif Here is the HTML at present: http://www.joshsphotos.com/user_interface/ And the CSS: http://www.joshsphotos.com/user_interface/css/style.css Thanks! Hi Guys, I'm trying to align some text along an image. The problem is, I want two lines of text to the right of the image, aligned to the top. If I put a <BR> tag between the two lines, the second line gets placed below the image. Here's what I have so far. img.top {vertical-align:text-top;} <a href="http://company.com/graphics/thumb.jpg"> <img class="top" src="http://company.com/graphics/thumb.jpg"> </a> <a href="company.com">sample text</a> <a href="company.com">second line</a> Any ideas? I've tried like every switch for the vertical-align property... Hello, how do you align vertically a radiobutton with label without using the <br> tag in css? Code: <fieldset>
<legend>Food</legend>
<input name="Password" type="radio" id="p" value="" checked="checked" />
<label>HTML</label> <br />
<input name="n1" type="radio" id="p" value="" />
<label>ASP</label> <br />
<input name="n1" type="radio" id="p" value="" />
<label>Donut</label> <br />
<input name="n1" type="radio" id="p" />
</fieldset>
I am aware of how difficult it is to vertically align text etc using pure css but what is hte best way to do it. For example i want to put some text slap bang into the middle of the screen. Thanks Hey everyone, my first time exploring page layouts using CSS and I'm having a few problems. I have a simple page with separate Header, Navigation and Content divs stacked on top of each other inside of a wrapper div (used to align the three to the center), with another div for the Footer placed below everything else. Here's how it looks now: Code: <html> <head> <title>CSS Divisions</title> <style type="text/css"> #Wrapper { width:800px; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto; text-align:left; } #Header { width:800px; height:120px; background:#FC6;} #PNav { width:800px; height:40px; float:left; background:#CCC; } #Content { width:800px; height:400px; float:left; overflow:hidden; background:#FFC; } #Footer { width:100%; height:80px; float:left; text-align:center; background-color:#FC6; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="Wrapper"> <div id="Header">Header</div> <div id="PNav">Navigation</div> <div id="Content">Content</div> </div> <div id="Footer">Footer</div> </body> </html>
Ideally what I want is for the page to look exactly how it is, but with the footer stretching from the bottom of the Content div, down to the bottom of the wherever the user's browser has loaded; basically to fill the vertical remainder of the screen. I've tried setting the footer height to 100%, but that forces the page to extend vertically, and I fumbled around with about a dozen other techniques not really knowing what I was doing, and I've had no luck so far. Any help would be greatly appreciated! i'm trying to vertically align a div box (the sign in area) so that it sits on top of this grey (soon to be) navigation bar...i've floated the box to the right...i want it to align to the bottom now...can anyone help me? ------> http:// www . u2station . com / index2.php and the stylesheet is at: http:// www . u2station . com /movabletype/mt-static/support/themes/u2station/u2station.css i've basically been trying to radically modify an existing theme that movable type (MT) publishing system created so i can alter it to my specs. any quick help with this simple css adjustment would be extremely helpful...(otherwise i'm thinking of reverting back to old fashioned tables as a last resort). DIV blocks display incorrectly in IE8 and it's driving me insane.. I tried adjusting padding for each column amongst other things but no dice! Everything looks fine in FireFox and IE9. I'm not allowed to post links as a new user but the website is dmstriping dot com. You'll have to fix the below links yourself. Any help would be greatly appreciated! **Here are the css files:** dmstriping dot com/new site/css/style.css dmstriping dot com/new site/css/layout.css Web Site: dmstriping dot com/new site/index.html Hey, I've been doing a fair amount of research on centering a page vertically and horizontally with CSS, and before I begin constructing my page, I thought I'd get some input from you guys. Basically, the page is going to look like this Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! I have a horizontal nav menu I've created using <ul> and <li> inside a <div> The problem is I can't get it to vertically center. I tried using padding and/or margin and it didn't work for all browsers. Here is the html: Code: <div class="top_nav"> <ul> <li><a href='/'>HOME</a></li> <li><a href='menu'>MENU</a></li> <li><a href='catering'>CATERING</a></li><li>DETAILS</li> <li><a href='photos'>PHOTOS</a></li> </ul> </div> and the CSS: Code:
.top_nav {
margin: 0 auto 15px auto;
height: 25px;
padding: 10px;
clear: both;
}
.top_nav ul {
list-style: none;
text-align: center;
}
.top_nav li {
padding: 0 25px;
font-family: "Palatino Linotype", "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
font-size: 16px;
font-weight: bold;
display: inline;
letter-spacing: 2px;
}
.top_nav li a {
color: #FFF;
text-decoration: none;
}
.top_nav li a:hover {
text-decoration: underline;
border-bottom: 3px solid #660000;
}
It stays vertically positioned at the top OK, I have three images: a top, middle, and bottom that need to align vertically. It should look like a typewriter with paper coming out when said and done. You can see what's wrong at csshore(dot)com Here is the css: #top { background:url(images/top.gif) no-repeat; background-position:50%; width: 617px; float:none; margin:0 auto; height: 55px; position: relative; } #container { background:url(images/middle.gif) repeat-y; background-position:center; width: 601px; padding:0; margin:0 auto; height: 100%; position: relative; min-height:600px; } #bottom { background:url(images/bottom.gif) no-repeat; background-position:50%; width: 800px; height:485px; margin:0 auto; position: relative; } .center { background-image:url(images/wood014.jpg); } And the html: <div id="top" class="center"></div> <div id="container" class="center">When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for a people to through off the reigns of governement and create a new one. </div> <div id="bottom" class="center"></div> Ignore the failed attempt to quote the Declaration of Independence. I have tried everything I know (which admittedly is little) and I can't get them to align. Thanks in advance. Ok, Im somewhat of a newb when it comes to CSS so forgive me if any of thise doesnt make sense. Im writing a page that has 3 sections, a top-menu section, a middle dynamic section and a bottom static section. Ive elected to use layers to display content in the middle section based on a mouseclick in the top section. To do this Ive made used of a script that encloses the dynamic section in a div, with subsequent nested divs set to visibility: none until they are called to be displayed. The issue that I am having is I am trying to position the bottom static section, that should always remain visible, below the middle section depending on the height of the midle section. Essentially the bottom section should move vertically as the size of the midle section changes sizes. The style that Im using is: Code: <style type="text/css">
#container { position:relative; width:495; height: 400px; z-index:100 }
.lyr { position:absolute; visibility:hidden; left:0; top:0; z-index:1 }
.layer { }
</style>
This is an example of the code in the body: Code: <a href="#" onClick="swapLayers('lyr0'); return false"><font>Click to return to the Welcome Text</font></a><br />
<a href="#" onClick="swapLayers('lyr1'); return false"><font>Click to return to the Welcome Text</font></a><br />
<a href="#" onClick="swapLayers('lyr2'); return false"><font>Click to return to the Welcome Text</font></a><br />
<div id="container">
<div id="lyr0" class="lyr">Layer 1</div>
<div id="lyr1" class="lyr">Layer 2</div>
<div id="lyr2" class="lyr">Layer 3<p> Continuing layer 3</p><p> Continuing layer 3</p></div>
<div class="layer">Layer 4</div>
</div>
With the above example Layer 1-3 will display based on mouseclicks. Layer 4 should appear beneath the currently displayed layer, and re-position accordingly based on the size of the preceding DIV. Does this make sense? Im not sure if Layer 4 should be nested inside the container div or below it. Thnx in advance for any help. |
