CSS - Eliminating Vertical Space (ie/mozilla)
Similar TutorialsHi: After entering data into a database from a form (HTML) using php, I now have to retrieve the data, place it in a form style and print. Everything works fine when I do the print except for one thing. Description of Problem: When I print using IE 6.0, all vertical and horizontal lines which separate data from each other (cells) print. When I do the print in Mozilla, only the horizontal lines appear. How can I fix this, or, what makes it do this in Mozilla and not in IE? There is one thing I'm not doing, I'm not using CSS to format the form. Could this fix the problem? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated! Thanks! i was looking for way how to display vertical text with css and found a solution: #vertical { writing-mode: tb-rl; filter: flipH flipV; } <div id="vertical">display vertical text</div> however, this works fine with IE 6.0, but is comletely ignored with Mozilla 1.4! is it that Mozilla just doesn't support this or is there a way how to work it around(write it in a way both IE and Mozilla could understand it)? i'll aprecciate your help very much.. I have a vertical menu on the left-hand side of my website, everything appears correctly when the page is first loaded but when I click on a menu item the entire div appears to shift to the left (10px). If I refresh the page it also appears correctly, so it is only when I have clicked on a menu item. I do know that there are plenty of problems with IE, but the menu does appear and function correctly in both IE and Opera. I am only having the problem with Mozilla. I am thinking that it may be something to do with the link visited properties but am not sure what. I have validated the css via the W3C website but there were no errors reported. The css segment is as follows: #subnavcontainer { position: absolute; left: 10px; top: 0px; margin-top:0px; padding-top: 0px; height: 700px; width: 160px; background: url("../images/bg_vert.gif") no-repeat; } #subnavcontainer ul { list-style-type: none; color: #000; margin-top: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; display: block; width: 200px; background-color: #D7D7D7; } #subnavcontainer li { padding-left: 0px; margin-top: 1px; } #subnavcontainer ul li { margin: 0 0 1px 0; padding-left: 0px; } #subnavcontainer ul a { display: block; padding: 0px 2px 2px 5px; width: 160px; color: #000; background-color: #F0EFEE; text-decoration: none; border-left: 4px solid #B09292; } #subnavcontainer ul a:hover { color: #000; background-color: #fff; text-decoration: none; border-left: 4px solid #FF0000; } The html segment is as follows: <div id="subnavcontainer"> <ul> <li> <a href="../content/company/se_company_overview.htm" target="mainFrame">Overview</a> </li> <li> <a href="../content/company/se_company_location.htm" target="mainFrame">Location</a> </li> <li> <a href="../content/company/se_company_contact.htm" target="mainFrame">Contact</a> </li> </ul> </div> I have been testing with Opera, Mozilla & IE. I am using STRICT DTD, and I checked my CSS with w3.org validation checker, so I would think that Opera and Mozilla would be compliant, but they are the ones giving me problems. I have table cells that only have images in them and they have extra padding, or margins at the bottom. WHY?! I have removed all the padding and margins from everything in the rows and added then removed the heights of the cells - neither worked. I have checked my code more times than I can count - and it is right. WHY IS MOZILLA AND OPERA ADDING EXTRA SPACE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE CELL?!?!?!?!?!? i have two divs on top of eachother with images in each. there is a space i can't get rid of in IE..looks perfect in firefox. i've tried cutting out the margins and padding to no avail. seems like ie regularly has spacing problem from google searches but none of their fixes have worked yet. My site I am redesigning this site for a theater camp company. I want to create the effect of stage lights shining with a image rollover and am partly there. I am stuck now because I want to use an HR as the cross beam with images of stage lights directly below (take a look at the site to understand). I do not know how, or if it's possible, to line up the images directly below the HR (bar) so there is no space at all. Any help? This is my first css based site...i'm having a nightmare time and wonder why this is so much better than tables when its taking me 4 hours in css what takes me 5 minutes with tables? that being said if you go he www . chhs . unh . edu / v3 . html on the right side here is the issue: in FF the contained divs are larger than the containing div in IE there is like 20 pixels of space at the top of the first containted div here is the code for this section, the sidebar is the container and the other 2 are the divs inside, quicklinks is the first one. Code: .twoColFixRtHdr #sidebar1 { width: 300px; float:right; text-align:left; background-color:#00F; padding:0px; display:inline; line-height:100%; } div#quicklinks{ display:block; width:300px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px; background-image:url(/images/v2/quicklinks_bg.png); background-position:top right; background-repeat:no-repeat; background-color:#AEAE5D; padding: 5px; color:#FFF; vertical-align:top; } div#photo_gallery_links{ width: 300px; margin: 10px 0px 0px 0px; background-image:url(/images/v2/photosbg.png); background-position:top right; background-repeat:no-repeat; background-color:#283C6F; padding: 5px; color:#FFF; } can anyone help me? i haven't used a board like this in like 8 years so i'm sorry if i'm doing it wrong. thanks! I have a region with a div, an image and another div stacked vertically. For some reason, there are a few pixels of blank space between the image and the bottom div. http://www.brucethorn.com/index.php...maritime-sunday On another page, I have regions with a "line-height + vertical-align:middle" centering of an image that make up thumb nails. There too is a few pixels of blank space, but at the top and images, pushing them down and slightly outside of the div that contains each of them. http://www.brucethorn.com/index.php/paintings I suspect these are the same problem, but I could be wrong. The issue is most visable in FF, and noticable in Opera. I only see something sporadic for the second occurence in IE Code: body {background-color:#999999; margin:0px; padding:0px; border:0px; text-align:center; font-family:"Courier New", Courier, mono;} h1.header {height:16px; width:800px; _width:776px; font-size:100%; font-weight:bold; margin:0px 0px 0px 24px; text-align:left; background-color:#333333;} h2.header {margin:0px; font-size:90%; font-weight:bold;} div {text-align:left;} h2.infoleft {text-align:left; height:16px; width:576px; font-size:90%; margin:0px 0px 0px 24px; _margin:0px 0px 0px 12px;float:left;} h2.inforight {text-align:right; height:16px; width:176px; font-size:90%; margin:0px 24px 0px 0px; _margin:0px 0px 0px 0px;float:left;} div.black {background-color:#000000; color:#999999;} div.block {margin:8px 24px 8px 24px; text-align:justify; font-size:90%;} div.block2 {margin:8px 0px 8px 12px; _margin:0px 0px 0px 4px;} div.block3 {margin:8px 0px 0px 12px;} img {border:0px; margin:0px; padding:0px;} img.left {float:left;} img.right {float:right;} div.bar {height:16px; width:auto; text-align:center;} div.title {height:48px; width:800px; margin:auto;} div.content {height:392px; width:800px; margin:auto; text-align:center;} div.subbar {height:16px; width:800px; background-color:#333333;} div.menu {height:18px; width:480px; float:left; margin:30px 0px 0px 20px;} div.copyright {height:16px; width:800px; margin:auto; text-align:right; font-weight:bold; font-size:75%;} div.scroll {height:344px; width:800px; margin:8px 0px 0px 0px; overflow:auto;} div.filmunit {height:128px; width:128px; border:4px; border-style:solid; border-color:#000000; background-color:#999999; margin:8px; padding:0px; float:left; text-align:center; line-height:128px;} img.filmimage {vertical-align:middle;} I am trying to style a css layout. I keep getting a vertical space between two different block containers. here is the html: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <title></title> <meta name="keywords" content="" /> <meta name="description" content="" /> <link href="default.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <div id="header"> <div id="menu"> </div> </div> </div> </body> </html> Here is the CSS: Code: #wrapper{ margin: 0 auto; width: 977px; } #header { margin: 0; background: url(images/header_01.jpg) no-repeat 0 0; width: 977px; height: 198px; } #menu{ margin: 0; background: url(images/header_02.jpg) no-repeat 100% 0; float: left; width: 977px; height: 44px; position:relative; top: 100% } My theory: the top part of the header is 154 px tall. The bottom part is 44px tall. That makes 198px height. so with header being 198px tall, and the smaller image with a relative position 100% down from the top should correctly line up the two images. But yet I have a HUGE gap?!?! Why? Even if I put 154px instead of 100% for top ... it will not line up correctly. Hi, I'm trying to avoid using absolute positioning (and using a margin or padding) to vertically place two divs. clear:both seems to be close but it clears double the amount of space that I want. 1. What determine's how much space is cleared? 2. Is it a problem that neither of the divs is floated? http://www.sabahseaside.com/sti/testindex.php Code: #homecontent { position:relative; margin:10px; } #homecontent p { text-align:justify; margin:0 1em 2em; } .hometop { margin:0; padding: 0; border: 1px solid black; } .homebottom { margin:0; padding: 0; border: 1px solid black; clear:both; /*margin-top:4em;*/ } http://www.sabahseaside.com/sti/layout.css Oh yeah, and the images in those divs are floated! AHHH! I'm going through hell trying to make a site look the same in IE and Firefox. The biggest problem is the gaping spaces IE adds between elements. What is the best way to fix this? Example at patrolmag.com/new. Any advice or help would be most appreciated. P.S. How the page looks in Firefox 3 is ideal. I just need to make at least IE7 come somewhere close to matching it. How do I reduce the vertical space between form elements that I put inside a div? I have text "username" with the textbox below it but there is like 25 pixels of vertical space between them. Brad I am trying to style a form using CSS instead of tables but am getting unwanted space above form elements when i use float:right to position them to the right of the prompt text. I have spent some time reading about the problem which appears to be an error with IEs rendering of CSS. I have tried several solutions posted on the web with no success. Can anyone recommend a solution to my problem.

Tried a number of variations on this probably simple task. Nonetheless: In this example how do I get the 'sidebar' to fill the vertical space of the container, and ensure the 'footer' remains positioned at the bottom (which it currently does) http://www.mandgweb.net/css_test/css_test.html Thank you Hi, Does anyone know how to veritcally align text using CSS? like <tr valign='middle'> when using tables. My page is on: http://www.3003online.com/demos/ecoceylon/v2/ You can see a difference in the "Home - About Us - Products - Contact Us" links when viewing from IE and Mozilla Firefox. Basically, I would like the text to be centered vertically in the bar... but CSS by default puts it on top. I tried adding padding,which helped in IE... but Firefox still shows the links a bit higher than they should be.,... any ideas how to fix this? Also, a different problem in case anyone knows how to fix it... you can see a small brown bar on the top bar. It is 50px in height. But I have no idea how to make its width as wide as the remainder of the page (this would change with different resolutions). The main content of the page is 760px wide. I would like a brown box next to that, which is 50px in height and the remainder width. Any ideas? "width: auto;" doesn't work unfortunately [ this is a follow up to my previous thread http://forums.devshed.com/showthread.php?t=270438 Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much. Im new to CSS and have a problem. IE displays my webpages without problem but when testing in Mozilla only a small number of CSS borders are visible. Here's an example. This works OK .right { border-top-width: 1px; border-right-width: 1px; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-left-width: 1px; border-top-style: none; border-right-style: solid; border-bottom-style: solid; border-left-style: none; border-top-color: #666666; border-right-color: #666666; border-bottom-color: #666666; border-left-color: #666666; } But this one does not display? .3pxspacernobackborder3 { padding: 8px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, "Book Antiqua"; font-size: 12px; color: #000066; border-top: 1px solid #666666; border-right: 1px solid #666666; border-bottom: 1px none #666666; border-left: 1px none #666666; } This is probably somethign simple but be gentle please guys. Hello. I can't figure out why Mozilla Firefox won't interpret my CSS correctly. In IE my site works just fine but in Firefox it doesn't work at all. The only part of the css file mozilla is picking up is the body font. Any ideas? HELP! this is the deal. My CSS/html looks great in IE.....BUT, when i open it in Mozilla, its like Mozilla isn't even registering the external css...only the html. Any ideas on how to make it work in both ie and mozilla?!? I am trying to display a banner (image) at the top of my page with a menu under it. In IE the image aligns to the top of the menu, but in Mozilla the menu starts 15 pixels below the image. I've tried setting margin and padding to 0 for all div tags but that does not help. If I set margin=-15px for my #hnav it aligns in Mozilla, but then the menu is pushed up 15 pixels in IE. I've tried an old IE hack from eric myers, but both IE and Mozilla read the hack code and it did not help. Code: <html> <head> <style type="text/css"> body {margin:0; padding:0;} html {margin:0; padding:0; background-color:#646874; font-size:11pt; font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;} img {display: block;border:none; margin:0;padding:0;} a:link, a:visited { color: #00F; text-decoration: none; } #pageContent {margin-left:24px;margin-top:12px;padding-bottom:45px; padding-right:7px; } .contentImg {width:707px;padding-left: 209px;} .padRight { padding-right: 15px; } #banner { width:820px;height:149px; background-image:url(images/820x150.gif); background-repeat:no-repeat; } #hnav {width:820px;height:42px;background-image:url(images/navbar.gif);background-repeat:repeat-x; margin-top: 0px;} #hnav ul {list-style:none;padding-left:20px;} #hnav ul li {float:left;font-size:11px;padding-right:15px;background-image:url(images/divider.gif); background-position:right;background-repeat:no-repeat;height:30px;} #hnav ul li a {padding-right:15px;position:relative;top:9px;text-decoration:none;color:#000;} #hnav ul li a:hover {color:#777777;} #hnav .curNavItem {padding-right:15px;position:relative;top:9px;text-decoration:none;color:#000; font-weight:bold;} </style> </head> <body> <div id="centerPage"> <div id="mastHead"> <div id="banner"></div> <div id="hnav"> <ul> <li><span class="curNavItem">Home</span></li> <li><a href="gold.html">Gold</a></li> <li><a href="silver.html">Silver</a></li> <li><a href="ssteel.html">Stainless Steel</a></li> <li><a href="glass.html">Glass</a></li> <li><a href="gemstones.html">Gemstones</a></li> <li><a href="custom.html">Custom</a></li> <li><a href="plating.html">Plating</a></li> <li><a href="events.html">Events</a></li> <li><a href="contactus.html">Contact Us</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> </body> </html> is there away for me to make css work in mozila?
