CSS - Break A Css Layer Out Of A Table Cell
Hello,
I have too work with 3rd party code which I am not allowed to modify. It is .jsp code that calls(includes) a header file which I am alloud to modify. However the header unfortunatly is trapped inside a table cell that is 540 px wide but I want my header to span the full width of the page. I built the Header.jsp with a css layer. If I set the layer property to width=100% well 100% of 540 is 540 so it comes out short. If I set the absolute px width than at 860 screen resolution the header gets cut off. Here is some 'view source' code to just generate the .jsp to html: </head> <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td align="center"> <!------------------------------The Login Page calls itself to verify login info and then redirects---------------> <TABLE width="540" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" > <TR> <TD align="left" valign="top" nowrap> <form NAME="Login" onSubmit="return checkRequired()" ACTION="LoginValidate.jsp" METHOD="post"> <input type="hidden" name="finalize" value="0"> <!------------------------------------------------------HEADER---------------------------------------------------------> <p> </p> <div id="Layer1" style="position:absolute; width:100%; height:115px; z-index:1; top: 0;"> <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 align="center" width="100%"> Blah blah blah. So you see that a 100% table is created then a 540px table with the 'include/header.jsp' code. So Basically is there a way to break out of the table cell? I understand 'float' allows you to overide the inherited structure but it does'nt really apply here? here is a url: URL The header at the top needs to span the whole page. The header file is the upper blue banner as well ast the light blue faded banner logo. Thanks in advance... Similar TutorialsI have a table that is populated using Spry. For some of the users, the table is showing its' borders in white when there is no data in the cell and for other users (like me) it's showing its' borders in black like expected. This is occurring in IE8 for the user. I have IE8 as well. Here is a setup of my table Code: <div id="Content">
<p class='instructions'>Click a column header to sort the table.</p>
<div spry:region="jdmba">
<div spry:state="loading" class="loading">Please wait while alumni data loads…</div>
<table class="spry" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<th scope="col" width="108px" class="sortable" spry:sort="last" id="last">Last Name</th>

I'm only placing borders on the left and bottom so that in my detail cells the borders aren't doubled up. So for example when I have no data for the cell State, the left and bottom border of that cell is white rather than black. Any ideas? Thanks! I'm having some problems with CSS. If you look at the pictures below, the first is a screenshot of what it is supposed to look like. It's how it looks in most browsers. The second one, however, is how it looks in IE 6 on Windows and IE 5 on the Mac. It is wrong. Correct look Incorrect look I want to know how to fix this. The little colored boxes are supposed to be squares and have solid borders on them. The shape is off and the borders are missing on the IE version. Also, on the progress bar, there is not supposed to be space between the cells but there is. There is also space between every cell on the page and there is not supposed to be any. Here is my main CSS: Code:
body { background-color: #FFFFFF; }
a { text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; }
a:link { color: #003366; background-color: transparent; }
a:visited { color: #003300; background-color: transparent; }
a:active { color: #339933; background-color: transparent; }
a:hover { text-decoration: underline; }
table { border: 1px solid black; border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px;}
td, th { border: 0px solid black; padding: 5px; text-align: center; white-space: nowrap; }
tr.one { background-color: #FFFFFF; }
tr.two { background-color: #DDDDDD; }
table.squares { border: 0px; border-spacing: 1px; width: 50px; height: 10px; }
td.square { border: 1px solid grey; padding: 4px; }
td.nopadding { padding: 0px; }
.default { font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; color: #000000; }
.h1 { font-size: 200%; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;}
.h2 { font-size: 120%; font-weight: bold; }
.h3 { font-weight: bold; }
.step { font-size: 150%; font-weight: bold; color: #999999; }
Here is one of the sets of squares: Code: <table class="squares">
<tr>
<td class="square" style="background-color: #CCCC66"></td>
<td class="square" style="background-color: #CC9966"></td>
<td class="square" style="background-color: #990000; border: black"><td>
<td class="square" style="background-color: #669966"></td>
<td class="square" style="background-color: #669999"></td>
</tr>
</table>
And finally, here is one of my progress bars: Code: <table style="color: white; width: 100px">
<tr>
<td style="padding:0px; text-align: right; padding-right: 5px; background-color:#222244; width:41px"></td>
<td style="padding:0px; text-align: left; padding-left: 5px; background-color:#666666; width:59px">40.7%</td>
</tr>
</table>
And in case that code is not enough, here is a link to the full HTML. According to this CSS test my CSS is not wrong. So does IE just suck? Is there something I can do to make it work in all browsers? My last question is, should I be using div tags for my boxes and progress bars instead of tables? I couldn't figure out how to make them work with divs so I just went with what I knew. Could someone give me an example of each using divs so I can learn how to make it work? Hi there! This might seem really basic but I don't seem to be able to remove the default border from a cell I created. The code looks like this: "<p> </p> <table align="center" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-width: 0px;"> <tbody> <tr> <td> <div style="overflow: auto; height: 475px; width: 700px; border-style: hidden;"> <p align="center"> <img height="457" width="600" src="images/stories/vlkommen3.jpg" alt="vlkommen3" style="margin: 0px; vertical-align: middle;" /> </p> <p align="center"> </p> <p> </p> </div> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p> </p> How shall I do to hide the border? Thanks in advance! /Kristoffer Alright, this is probably a simple fix but I can not find the solution anywhere. I'm trying to highlight a table cell with a 2px solid red border when it is clicked. Is there a way to get this to happen with out changing the size of the cell? I hope this makes sense. Basically the cell is expanding by 1 px causing movement in the table. I have just moved to working with layers as opposed tables/cells. Previously i had a table with three cells, at 86%, 4%, and 16% widths so it spanned the screen. The first cell's content only partly fills the cell, so when the browser is resized (made smaller), each cell stays on the same line and the table happily resize to the point where it can no longer get smaller before it wraps text I have tried to replicate this using 3 div's of the same width as the cells, with float left, however, the browser can hardly be resized at all from full screen without the third div moving onto the next line. If i make the 2nd and third divs larger it works slightly better, however the content does not look right in the layers Therefore can anyone point out how i might be able to achieve better DIV resize when the browser resizes please. Thanks very much Ed Hey folks, i'm trying to get the effect of the following image: http://www.dgemu.com/Images/first_steps.jpg Basically I got it all set up 'cept for Metroid's image, which is just driving me insane.. I used absolute positioning on the metroid image so I could use relative positioning on that table thingy and use z-index to put it there, but I'm having problems with the text - it goes behind the image ahhhh - what can I do? I was thinking perhaps adding relative positioning for the text too and make it above the image but what I want is to not touch the image - u know like u do float:right on the image - but I can't use float 'cuz then the z-indexing thing messes up.. hmm.. can anyone help me? Hello, I am very new to CSS, having only used stylesheets for basic formatting of text, etc. I have created a site where the layout is based on tables (I know ... when I have spare time, I will start learning CSS for this). I have a main table with 1 row and 1 column, height 95%, width 100%. Within this I have a table with a fixed layout (set height, width) for the table elements. This table is centre and middle aligned. Unfortunately the text provided for one of the cells in the table is exceeding the amount expected and the cell height has increased to accommodate for this. I thought of creating a layer and placing it over the cell and inserting the text here and setting the overflow to scroll. However, depending on screen resolution, browser the layer is not always positioned where I want it. Can I somehow position the layer relative to the table cell ? If not, do you have any suggestions as to what I can do to fix this. I do not have the option to rewrite the site using CSS, due to deadlines. Thanks in advance for your help. Bea Hello, I need to place an image in the bottom right-hand corner of a table cell. How would I do this using CSS, keeping in mind that text and other goodies are already present in the cell? I'd appreciate any advice. Thanks. Hi. I've got a question regarding placing an image within a table cell and using CSS to achieve a certain result. The table cell's width is determined at 530px, but the height is dependent on the actual length of the copy. What I'm looking to accomplish is have an image ghosted in the background of the text. It is supposed to appear in the lower right hand corner of the cell. I've already created the image with a transparent background, but it's not implementing correctly. Can I use a Z-Index style to achieve the item being placed under the text? Also, how do I make sure that the image is positioned in the lower right hand corner of the cell regardless of the height of the cell? Thanks! Simon315 Check out the following code. Notice how the dark blue cell has one thin layer peeping through right inside the black border of the outer table? I can't figure out why. What this should look like is a black border, followed by a border of 3 white thickness all around the light blue cells, as well as between the light blue cells. Fixing this peeping cell in a way in which it is sucked out is fine - but if you have a better solution as to how to make the white spacing 3 around the cells AND the table, with a black border, I will accept. Thanks Code:

as you can see the "menuInnerContents" DIV isn't taking all the space available and the text inside it doesn't overflow. Help me please! hi, and thank for the help in advance. i was wondering if it is possible to make a table cell's top border different thickness versus the sides and the bottom. hi all... i have a table cell "td" with 3 divs in it. what i need is to get it to align the top div to the top, middle div to the middle and 3'ed div to the bottom... this is all fine but i cant get to do that, and the auto increase height on the middle one dont work ? btw: this is for the IE style sheet, mozilla(firefox) works great.... frank/ Hello, I have a table and I am styling its cells: table.Grid td {background-color: red;} Inside this table I will have some other tables but I don't want their cells to have the styles changed. I see two options: give a class to Grid table cells: table.Grid td.Grid {background-color: red;} Reset the changes in child tables: table.Child1 td, table.Child2 td, table.Child3 td {background-color: white;} But can I apply the following style: table.Grid td {background-color: red;} And make it only for the cells inside that table but not inside the child tables in this code line? ... without needing to reset the styles on child table cells or give main cells a class ... Thanks, Miguel Hi all. I have a script that draws a calendar. I would like to be able to position the day number in the upper right of each table cell using CSS. Note, each cell will also have an embedded table or just text showing events for that day, so I don't mind if the day number overlaps that table. Ive tried doing something like this: PHP Code: td.dayNumJK { font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; position: absolute; top: 1px; right: 1px; } But it seems to ignore the style. I've tried all the possible position attribute values (static, absolute, relative, fixed) but it doesnt seem to work. Maybe this is not possible with CSS? Any ideas how I can accomplish this? hi all ! Im doing a calendar and I want to make the cell "TODAY" different from the rest. So far I have to sets: Code: .dayrow {
background: #FFF;
height: 20px;
}
And today Code: .today {
color:#007eff;
height: 20px;
}
And the PHP code that controls it: PHP Code: if($col==1) $xml.="\n<tr class='dayrow'>"; $xml.="\t<td valign='top' onMouseOver=\"this.className='dayover'\" onMouseOut=\"this.className='dayout'\" onClick=\"AfterDaySelected($cur,$month,$year,event)\">"; if($i <= ($days+($start-1)) && $i >= $start) { $xml.="<div class='day'><b"; if(($cur==$today[mday]) && ($name==$today[month]) && ($year2==$today[year])) $xml.=" class='today'"; $xml.=">$cur</b></div>"; Is there a way to overwrite the BG in dayrow with one I put in the today class? So all the days remain the same except for that one? Thanks a lot ! Hi, I have a HTML page linking to a CSS file in the header. My main table is defined using class="formBody". This includes: Code: table.formBody td {
border-width: 1px 1px 1px 1px;
padding: 5px 5px 5px 5px;
border-style: solid solid solid solid;
border-color: black black black black;
background-color: white;
-moz-border-radius: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
}
I need to override this on certain cells, so that a SINGLE certain cell will not have any borders (these will be cells on the bottom row, so the table will have the appearance of having half of its' actual width on the bottom row). Any ideas? I tried explicitly setting border="0" in the <td> tag and also defining a new class called "noborder" with border set to none, and then using <td class="noborder"> but neither of these work. essentially, what I want, is a table that looks like: Code:

Any suggestions on how to do this? Hello, I am using a series of nested ULs to display information in a kind of tree structure with some DHTML involved to make it behave pretty. What I am trying to achieve is to have the information in the LI elements well spaced apart, using <span>s. Since these elements are inline I cannot give them a specific width. A workaround that solves the problem in using the property display:table-cell and then I can give it a width. Of course this doesn't work in IE. Could someone please suggest an alternative way of achieving the following: Code:
<ul id="tree">
<li id="node1">
<a href="#">
<span>CB200801</span>
<span>02/03/2007</span>
<span>IPS20003</span>
<span>17.58</span>
<span>3.08</span>
<span>0.00</span>
</a>
<ul>
<li id="node2">
<a href="#"><span>12028077</span></a>
</li>
<li id="node3" >
<a href="#"><span>12046086</span></a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
etc etc
and then I give the <span> the display:table-cell and a width. In Firefox this is giving me the visual layout I require. Can something be done to help IE? Thanks in advance Andy Hey all, I'm working with a table in which the top row serves as column headers. Each column header can have a label-link as well as two graphics representing options for selecting an ascending or descending sort. The images are done through CSS so to allow use of :hover for mouse-over image swapping. My problem is that I can't figure out a combination of CSS to make it so that, should a person's resolution be too low or should they narrow their browser window to the point where it attempts to reduce column width, that the text and images remain side-by-side. A sample of the problem can be found he http://www.weblifenetwork.net/sample.html In this sample the first cell has a small, secondary table within it for the purpose of demonstrating the behavior I'm after. The second cell is kind of my current test cell (and the closest I've gotten to the correct behavior as of this post), and all other cells are using the same problematic CSS. As you enlarge/reduce the width of your browser, you should notice this behavior: First Cell: No wrapping. No display anomalies. Second Cell: Unwanted wrapping. No display anomalies. Other Cells: No wrapping. Images begin flowing over text. Text extends into neighboring cell. Any help in duplicating the behavior of the first cell using only CSS would be greatly appreciated. I've spent over a day in a CSS IRC channel to no avail. Hello, I am trying to make the table cells in the chart (URL below) at the bottom of the page to be invisible. I have styled the border & background color to #FFFFF (white). When viewed in Firefox, cell borders in gray appear. http://oharenoise.org/2010_news_releases-2.htm |
