CSS - "absolute" Positioning In Ie

"absolute" Positioning In Ie	View Content

I've got a menu that is a group of three absolutely positioned images.
It renders as intended in Firefox, but not in IE. everything seems shifted 4 pixels to the left. As far as i know, absolute should mean absolute. I tried relative positioning; which, again, only worked in Firefox. Any and all input is appreciated.

I'm taking over a departmental web page that has a whole bunch of
Code:

<body topmargin="0" bottommargin="0" leftmargin="0" rightmargin="0">

in the web pages. Does anyone know how to put this in a stylesheet so that I don't have to put this code in every <body> tag when I create a new page?

I've searched all over and can't find a reasonable resolution. Thanks

Help Me Break Away From The "absolute" Habit

View Content

I'm trying to cut down on my use of the absoute property in CSS.

But I'm having some troubles.
To make part of my drop-down menus, I am creating small mini pages to start with that will contain the menus.
I have some images made up.
They're pretty close to all being the same size.

I need those images to "stack" on each other. I hate to break out using absolute positioning and using their heights to get the proper values if I don't have to.

What should I use instead?
I'm leaning towards margins maybe?

what is the equivilant to <table border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0"> in css?

i've tried
PHP Code:
table
{
    border-spacing: 0px;
    padding: 0px;
    border-colapse: colapse;
    border-style: solid;
    border-width: 1px;
}
td
{
    border-style: solid;
    border-width: 1px;
    padding: 2px;
}

That makes the width 2px wide though. I want it to only be one. And the padding seems to be messed up as well.

"semi-absolute?"

Is there a way to position something inside another block relative to the coordinates of its parent block? I mean something analogous to the way position: absolute puts a block relative to the coordinates of the body. So I could say have a block with a width and a height, and then have something "right: 20px" inside that block.

Hi, I have sort of a strange problem.

I'm making a centered website, and I have a shopping cart image which is actually a submit button for a form. If I make it just a plain image it looks like this:

However, when it's an <input type="image"> (which is what I need) it moves it drastically.

My styles are he http://www.rit.edu/~jtn5684/test/styles.css

Need Help With Positioning My Site "pops" Right Now

k so I have a weird problem. My site snafu-comics.com basically has a main table with all the content in it and then two images on the left and right side just for added visual effect when browser windows are larger resolution than 955 pixels. But the problem is how it's setup now the left image loads (pushing everything to the right side of the screen since it touches the main middle table on the right) Then the main table loads and it takes a little while to finish loading mostly due to the ads. Then the right image loads and once it loads the whole thing pops to the center of the screen like it should.

What I'm trying to do is just get the center table in the center the whole time. And then when the rest loads it loads. Any ideas?

and again for ease the site is snafu-comics.com Thanks for your help!

Firefox Alignment Of <div>'s, After "first Load" Or "hard Refresh".

(I originally posted this at the end of another of my topics but I don't think it was seen).

I have just noticed this problem in firefox (may happen in other browsers) but I couldnt make it happen in IE6. After the first load of the page or after a "hard refresh" (ctrl + F5) the middle and right column do not "shift up" and leave a gap. (see attached picture). But if I refresh (just F5) firefox shifts them up to display the page as it should be seen.

Css Nav <li Id=""> Or <li Class=""> Not Working In Firefox Or Netscape

Hi,

I'm trying to build a nav using css, I need to style each <li> within the nav becuase they need to be different lengths on the page. I have had it working fine on IE but I can'#t get it working for for any other browser.

Does soneone know how I can style each of my list items accordingly, notice the different block lengths for each one which is very important.

I have tried both id="Style" and class="Style" and no joy, I have also tried #nav ul li li li li li a:hover in my style without id or class in my HTML

Here is my Html

PHP Code:
<DIV id="nav">
              <ul>
                <li id="1"><a href="Home">Home</a></li>
                <li id="2"><a href="About-us">About us</a></li>
                <li id="3"><a href="FlexNews">FlexNews</A></li>
                 <li id="4"><a href="Careers">Careers</A></li>

Pure Css Site: Still Necessary To Have Height="82" And Width="82" In <img ... /> ?

Hi guys,

For a pure CSS site, is it still necessary to have height="82" and width="82" in <img ... /> ?

Moreover, is it depreciated to have a size="25" tag in <input elements? (I know it could ba handled in CSS but nice to have directly in the html).

Thank you

Can Div "inherit" An "auto" Height

Similar Tutorials

View Content

that is basically the question. I have a main div, where content will dynamically be placed, so it will change height frequently.

However, It has rounded corners, so either side of it I have 3 images, 2 of which are the corners, and one is a repeating y image.

If i set a fixed size for the containing div's height(<div id="submaincontainer">), everything will jump to that.(everything else is set to inherit) However, if it's height is set to auto (which is really what I want) everything will be 1px tall.

(URL address blocked: See forum rules)/cv/cv.html

This is my first project with trying to strictly use div tags and CSS rather than a table. A table seems like it would be incredibly easier. Anyone know how to make this work?

What i want to do is have a block set to the exact width and height that i want. I am trying to find it on w3schools and cant seem to get anywhere.

When i use the code below it works great, untill i enter text to it. i want the height of the block to be 15 pixels, the text is set at 12 in the external stylesheet. When i add the text it makes it about 25px or something... does this have something to do with clip?

Line-height also makes no differences.

This is my attempt at getting rid of my smaller tables

<img Src="" Width="50">keeps Coming

Is there by chance a feature of MS Front Page that helps us out by changing height and width attributes to upper case,
which CSS does not recognize? If so, is there a way to disable this feature?
What is the popular alternative (among those in the know) to MS FP? The "normal-html-preview" screen format in FP is great.
Or, can we simply get rid of the height and width calls in "img src=" links?
Thank you for any attention to this.

Ok To Have <ul Id="">...</ul> Directly In Body Or Must I Do <div Id="same"><ul>... ?

Similar Tutorials

Hi guys!

Let's say I have this IN BODY directly:

Code:

<div id="top_section">
...
</div>

<ul id="menu">
...
</ul>

Or should I do it like this:

Code:

<div id="top_section">
...
</div>

<div id="menu">
<ul>
...
</ul>
</div>

UL and DIV are both block elements so I think the first is acceptable (combining block elements whatever their sort is logical or am I completely wrong here??)

Thank you

I would like to apply the .red class, but it does not work, because the #text a overrides it. How can I solve that? It is just an example because it is a cause of a problem generated by a CMS, and I can only play with the CSS, not with the HTML side.

3 Col, Header, Sticky Footer, Scrollable Middle With "fixed" Left/right?

Similar Tutorials

View Content

http://cheers-sendai.com/fluidframe.htm has a great and simple example of 3 cols (OK, 2 cols in the middle section makes "4 cols"), header and sticky footer, where the middle col has overflow:auto so it can be scrolled. GREAT example, I think (due to the use of bg colors, etc.).

The left/right/width values of the divs are manipulated so that the middle section runs from 10% to 90% and the left/right divs fill in accordingly.

I'd like to be able to set, for example, the left and right divs to be 150 px wide (NO percentages!) and have the middle section stretch between them (regardless of viewport width) and be able to be scrolled, too.

The problem I see is that most examples use percentages. I can set the left div to be a fixed width, then set the middle section left coord. to be, say, 150px, but then I need to set its width to stretch to "150 to the left of the right side of the viewport" and I don't know how to do this.

Thanks.
