CSS - Content Flowing Between Several Td's?

Does anybody know what the css attributes would look like for the right margin divs like (e.g. #smr-00) found in this tutorial?
(see link)
css.image.text.wrap.tutorial.htm

Hi

I'm struggeling with the following:

I have some span elements inside a td.

If I apply padding to a span then the padding is flowing outside the td (above and below the borders of the td).

Why does that happen and is there a way to make the td to autogrow to fit all the span's inside?

Se example code below

Code:

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center" style="width:300px; margin-top:50px;">
<tr>
<td style="background-color:gray; text-align:center; border:1px solid black;">
<span style="margin-right:20px;">First</span>
<span style="margin-right:20px;">1</span>
<span style="margin-right:20px;">2</span>
<span style="margin-right:20px; background-color:orange; padding:10px;">3</span>
<span style="margin-right:20px;">4</span>
<span style="margin-right:20px;">5</span>
<span style="">Last</span>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

******* UPDATE *******
I found this link today:
http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=FormattingContexts

which says (among other things):
*************************
Only one thing impacts the vertical space between inline elements: the line height. Normally, the line height is based upon the line height for the text in that line, or the height/padding/border/margin of any replaced items. The element on a line with the largest line height or replaced height is the one to define the vertical space that line takes up.

Height, padding, border or margins on text do not impact the line height or the container height. Instead, borders, padding and margins overlap from line to line. If you want to give an inline text element some padding and border, make sure you give it some extra line height, too, or else it will overlap with whatever else is above or below it.
*************************

So does that rule mean that I have no way to make my TD autogrow in relation to the padding applied to the SPAN in the example above?
Is there any working workarounds for this...?

Hi there,

I have a content glider script, but I have added it to a wrapper with a background image.

The css is using a white background colour so when a new layer is glided up, it covers the one underneath it. However, I want the background to be transparent to show the background image underneath....

If I remove the white background, they layers become transparent and overlay each other, so you can see all text in the layers on top of each other making it impossible to read.

Is there anyway I can make it so it has a transparent background, but so it will not show the content under the new slide?

This is my CSS:

PHP Code:
.glidecontentwrapper{
position: relative; /* Do not change this value */

height: 230px; /* Set height to be able to contain height of largest content shown*/

overflow: hidden;
}
/*
    Total wrapper width: 350px+5px+5px=360px
    Or width of wrapper div itself plus any left and right CSS border and padding
    Adjust related containers below according to comments
*/


.glidecontent{ /*style for each glide content DIV within wrapper.*/
position: absolute; /* Do not change this value */
background: white;
visibility: hidden;
width: 330px;
}
/*
 Total glidecontent width: 330px+10px+10px=350px
    Or width of wrapper div itself (not counting wrapper border/padding)
*/

.glidecontenttoggler{ /*style for DIV used to contain toggler links. */
width: 360px;
margin-top: 6px;
text-align: center; /*How to align pagination links: "left", "center", or "right"
background: white; /*always declare an explicit background color for fade effect to properly render in IE*/
} 





Any help would be great!
Thanks.

Well I managed to find a partial solution by adding "clear" to the "statusDiv" like so:

Code:

.statusDiv {
	clear: both
	background-image: url(../png/disclosure_triangles/blue_block.png);
	height: 20px;
	margin-bottom: 1px;
	}

This kicks sibling divs onto their own line (which is what I wanted) but the spacing between divs is 2 pixels and I can't seem to find any combination of padding, margins etc to get the spacing down to one pixel.

Does anyone know of a way to control the inter-div spacing when "clear" is defined?

Thanks

Ken

I'm trying to make a few divs to create the same basic functionality as an outline (with disclosure triangles etc...) and am having alignment problems.

The first row renders perfectly but the text of subsequent rows overlaps the text of first row.

Here's the html:
Code:

<div id="contentBlock" class="bodyText">
	<div class='statusDiv'>
		<div class='disclosureCollapsed'></div>
		<div class="disclosureDivLabel">New</div>
	</div>
	<div class='statusDiv'>
		<div class='disclosureCollapsed'></div>
		<div class="disclosureDivLabel">Open</div>
	</div>
</div>

And here's the CSS:
Code:

#contentBlock {
	position: absolute;
	top: 130px;
	left: 200px;
	height: 101%;   /* Hack to force vertical scroll bars */
	right: 280px;
	min-width: 400px;
	visibility: visible;
	display: block;
	}

.statusDiv {
	clear: both
	background-image: url(../png/disclosure_triangles/blue_block.png);
	height: 20px;
	margin-bottom: 1px;
	}

.disclosureCollapsed {
	background-image: url(../png/disclosure_triangles/blue_collapsed_wide.png);
	display: block;
	text-align: right;
	/*position: absolute;*/
	float: left;
	top: 0px;
	left: 0px;
	width: 18px;
	height: 20px;
	}

.disclosureCollapsed:hover {
	cursor: pointer;
	}

How would I make the text in each subsequent row (statusDiv) line up?

Thanks for any help

Still working on it, but something caught me and I'm clueless. See, I'm still learning Tableless CSS, and well... I'm not sure how to have it so that the content doesn't run over the footer like that. As it should be more like...

For CSS reference, here is where the css file is located:

Thanks in advance!

I am working form a template that I am modifying a website and the the content is working fine in Chrome, Safari, and FF, but the part of the sidebar shows up in IE7 and no other content. Any asssitance will be appreciated. I tried different hacks with no luck. I got errors for unscrollable content but I don't believe that is it because I tried all "fixes"

Hi,

I'm knocking up a new site and I'd like to place the content first in the source code, followed by the nav code etc.

The design of the site goes: header -> main content -> footer.

The navigation will sit in the header above the main content.
all the nav links etc. are text and will be resizable by the user as that is good accessibility practice. This means the header can change height as the font expands.

So my question is...

I see how I could put the header and nav last in the soiurce code and then position it absolutely, and position the main content etc. under it. but how do I do this when the height of the header can vary if the user alters the text size etc.?


any tips ladies and gentlemen?

hi, I have a layour where the container is 100% high, and then I have a header and nav
then I have a #main and #bar divs (columns)
then #footer

I would like for the footer to stick to the bottom and the main, and bar expand to the bottom (even if there isn't enough text)

does this make sense, heres my css

PHP Code:
 html,body {
        height:100%;
        margin:0px;
        padding:0px;
        background: #eee;
    }
    
    #container {
        height:100%;
        margin: 0 auto;
        width: 720px;
        border-left: 1px solid #000;
        border-right: 1px solid #000;
        background: #f00;        
    }

    #header {
        height: 170px;
        background: #ff0 url('../images/header.gif');    
    }

    #nav {
        height: 25px;
        padding: 5px;
        background: #666;
    }

    #main {
        width: 400px;
        float: left;
        padding: 10px;
        background: #fff;
    }
    
    #bar {
        padding: 10px;
        margin-left: 420px;
        border-left: 1px solid #006;
        background: #fff;
    }

    #copy {
        height: 30px;
        background: #999;
        clear: both;
    } 

my css :

Code:

#contentright {
		width:171px;
		padding:0px;
		float:left;
		background:#fff;
		}

I am new to useing css for layout and am running into a problem where if I do

Code:

<div id="contenteight">

some text

</div>

then try to do it again


Code:

<div id="contenteight">

some more text

</div>

it doesn't place the new text on the right, but rather at the bottom left.

also my while page is inside of
Code:

	#frame {
		width:823px;
		margin-right:auto;
		margin-left:auto;
		margin-top:10px;
		padding:0px;
		text-align:left;
		}

any help

thanks

Hi

I have site where I am forced to set my content div <div id="content"> min-height with jquery on each page.Site Link
This is because the content div keeps collapsing and ignoring the content it has. Can someone teach me how to fix this please.

I'm sure this has been asked, and I've googled for help without finding anything that works. I'm redesigning a site from html/tables -> css and need to keep a footer at the bottom of each page (after the content, not stuck to the bottom of the window). Being pretty unfamiliar with css positioning I'm having a bit of trouble.

Site is here - huguenotbats . com / redesignfiles

CSS is here - huguenotbats . com / redesignfiles / stylesheets / hbstyle . css

As is everything works, but when I try to add a footer it sits on top of the content. Help, anyone??

Hi there!

I am tweaking a WordPress template to fit a blog for a roleplaying game. The template is a three-column, fixed-width one. It looks fine on my tiny 17" monitor at work, but at home on my 22", the blog is very small and sits in the center of the page. (The content section is just 904px wide.)

Is there a way to tweak the style.css file in order to give the columns percentage widths instead of absolute pixel widths, so that the center "content" area will resize properly according to the reader's resolution/monitor size/window size?

I have some experience with CSS and I'm usually pretty good at tweaking pre-existing CSS to fit my needs, but this is something that's a bit beyond me.
