CSS - Menu Bar, Left Side Bar, Css?
Hi. I just have a simple question. I would like to design a web page that has a menu bar at top, a left side bar, and probably a news wire type bar on the right. Something similar to the way the main Dev Shed page is set up. I'm not asking for anyone to explain to me how to do this, I just don't know what I need to look into to do this. Is CSS what I'm looking for? Or is it something else? I've just started to learn PHP and that's the language I'm programming in, so is there some useful way to do this in PHP? Also, any tips about news wires? Thanks in advance for pointing me in the right direction.
Similar TutorialsI have been trying to write a horizontal CSS nav menu for my website thinkmarriage.org/catalog/ based on some code I found. The menu seems to work great, except: 1. it is adding what looks like 30ish pixels of padding on the left side of the menu. I have tested in FF, IE, and Safari, all do the same thing. The code is CSS 2.1 validated. The link to my sample is: thinkmarriage.org/menu2.html 2. When I add the menu into my actual store, in FF it works, but IE turns the horizontal nav into vertical drop boxes. I was pretty sure the style sheets were conflicting with one another, but now the bar is working in FF, and I can't seem to find any problems. The two style sheets are : #1 (for the menu) : thinkmarriage.org/catalog/menustyle.css and #2 (for the site) : thinkmarriage.org/catalog/stylesheet.css The link to the site is above. If anyone has any thoughts as to where the extra padding is coming from or the conflict with the sheets in IE, I would greatly appreciate it. (Sorry, the rules won't permit me to place hyperlinks) I also am having this problem with the menu in IE6 - the right hand side of the menu dropdown, "Videos", is also showing up on the left hand side, slightly cut off. I know it's "Videos" because when I hover over Videos, the text on the left hand side ("os") also lights up. Is it possible that -999em is not far enough over? What could be the problem/how can I fix this? A related problem, perhaps, is that the first below-menu item starts about 20px below where it should be. I'm new to CSS programming and I'm not too sure what's going on. image showing what the issue is at kburke dot org slash menuleft.jpg - I don't have enough posts to link an image. I really appreciate your help. The menu's in a 980px wide container. Some of the site's still in tables but I'm working on changing that. #nav, #nav ul { padding: 0; margin: 0; list-style: none; float:left; width:89.091em; list-style:none; line-height:1; background:#b6791e; font:11px Verdana, sans-serif; font-weight:bold; padding:0; margin:0 0 .5em 0; } #nav a { display: block; width: 11.1em; w\idth: 10.1em; color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: none; padding: 0.75em 0.5em; } #nav a.daddy { } #nav li { float: left; padding: 0; width: 11.1em; position:relative; } #nav li ul { position: absolute; left: -999em; height:auto; width: 14.7em; w\idth: 14.5em; font-weight: bold; margin: 0; padding:0; background:#FFFFFF; color:#769841; border: 0.1em solid #769841; } #nav li ul a:hover{ color:#ffff30; background:#769841; } #nav li ul li a{ color:#769841; } #nav li li { padding-right: 1em; width: 14.5em; w\idth:13.5em; } #nav li:hover ul { left: auto; } #nav li a:hover, nav li.sfhover a:hover{ color:#FFFF30; } #nav li ul li a:hover { color:#FFFF30; } #nav li:hover ul, #nav li.sfhover ul { left: auto; clear:both; } #nav li ul ul { margin: -3.3em 0 0 5em; } #nav li:hover, #nav li.sfhover { background: #769841; } #nav li a:hover, #nav li.sfhover a:hover{ color: #ffff30; } #nav li ul a{ color:#769841; padding:.4em; } Hi! I just floated left my navigation menu, and it caused my page title and breadcrumbs to move over to the immediate right of that (because it is also floated left)... Wondering if anyone could tell me the proper way of getting it back to the left side as it was before. Thanks. Drew EDIT: Here's the link, whoops! http://drewclifton.com/healthwise/?page_id=1667 I'm working on a really simple theme. You can see the progress here. this is a table-less theme. trouble that I'm having is that I cannot get the content to center. It is all floated left. Now, I'm intentionally floating the left column to the left, but that's the only thing (and changing that didn't fix the problem either). So I'm hoping one of you css gurus will have some suggestions. (link to style.css file) Thanks in Advance! http://www.ilumos.co.uk/site/ http://www.ilumos.co.uk/site/style/styleDefault.css As you can see on the left there is a "glowing" blue-white fadey thing going on on the left of the page, but it stops after the header (#header) for no apparent reason. The page renders fine in IE, but in Firefox or any other standards obeying browser it stops there. the CSS for the page border on the left is as follows: #wrap { background: url("../images/ilumosPageFadeLeft.jpg") repeat-y; padding-left: 25px; width: 750px; } (the wrap div contains all of the page's content) How can I make the image extend to the bottom of the page? Thanks I'm helping these fine folks fix a few little issues with their site but this one I can't seem to quite figure out. If you roll over the main menu you will see the sub menu slide down on the left. For the life of me I can't get it to line up under the main nav. I've tried many, many things. Can anyone provide a few hints, tips, suggestions?

Ok, I have a website that i'm building with about 25 pages, and I keep on having to change the side navigation bar, and then I have to copy and paste it on each page to update it. IS THERE A WAY FOR ME TO ONLY UPDATE IT ONCE AND IT UPDATES TO ALL THE PAGES? Is the answer css? or i-frames(or whatever it's called) If so, then how would I do this?! PLEASE HELP! Hello, I'm having some problems with with the menu and CSS. I'm trying to retouch some aspects of my website, and the last think I need to do now is the menu. Right now, here is how it looks like: www.lightblu.com You see the menu on the very top, then the logo below it, and then the banner below the logo. My users were "annoyed" by the amount of empty space between the top menu and the banner. Having thought of many possibilities, I encountered a template over at TemplateMonster, which is the exact menu I need. The reason I did not purchase it is that usually TM uses tables rather than pure CSS. And here is the menu I'm talking about: http://www.templatemonster.com/website-templates/18925.html You see the menu? And that's the exact same menu-concept that I'd like to have. Of course the background will be Black just as my website, rather than the greyish one you see at TM. Now here is the problem I'm having. When I'm trying to align the logo with the menu, it just doesn't happen. I have the logo the on top left, which is fine, but then the menu appears below the logo on the right side. And I just cannot figure this thing out. Grrrr.. What am I doing wrong? Thanks a ton guys! So I have this code... Code:

As you can see I am using a left margin and a negative top margin to position the page body next to the menu. This is the first time I've done it this way. In the past I've used floats (either floating the content, and putting a margin on the menu, or floating the menu and putting a maring on the content.) This method does not work in IE7 as the menu's links are not selectable. That doesn't necessarily mean this is the wrong way to do it... but, I was looking for opinions and suggestions as to what's the "right" way to accomplish this so that development and maintenance is easy... the content and menus are self contained (i.e. they don't or at least only minimally affect each other)... and it works cross browser. Thanks Bryan Hi I want to create a text rollover menu on the very left hand side only (standard display). I want it in a table so I can have content on right hand side. I don't know whether to have each link in its own cell or 1 big cell and have a list of items. I decided to have a list of items but the items display on right side of the table cell and align left doesn't work. Code:
a {
display: block;
width:100px;
text-decoration: none;
}
#list1 { /* all list items */
background: lightblue;
border-width:1px; /* thin is not the same in different browsers */
border-color:black;
border-style:solid; /* required */
list-style-type:none;
}
I just want the list to display on left hand side and have a box around each item which it isn't. I am spending way too long fiddling about with this . I am trying to space out my menu from the primary container. right now its completely on the left i am want to give it a 4 pixel space but I am relevantly new to css/html cant figure it out. This is what i have for the menu. Code: .twoColHybLtHdr #sidebar1
{ float: left ;
width: 12em;
background: #000000;
padding: 15px 0;
border: 1px solid #ffffff; }
Thanks In Advance Hi everyone, I just have this pain with aligning the whole red thing to left of the page browser (cause it just keeps hanging on the center) - you can check my homepage below - you will see the problem - what should I do to move the whole thing to left? Thank you in advance. The URL: http://www.dudley.nhs.uk/ The problem.... in IE7, the left menu is shifted to the right. If you refresh the page, the issue is resolved.... until you go onto one of the links again! I've split the CSS up into many files (tables, colours, fonts, left list, right list etc etc) One of my colour CSS files contains the code for the colouring of the lists. Within this, I have found: PHP Code: ul#navlist li a:hover, ul#navlistRight li a:hover { border-color: #ff0; background: #9cf; color:#000; } which seems to be causing the problem. Taking it out seems to works fine BUT I do lose the colour change. I've attached the 2 stylesheets that I use for the menu on the left. Please help! I'm having a few problems with my CSS design which I can't seem to solve right now, despite lots of searching and code editing. I'm trying to do a simple design with two columns - a left menu and the main content on the right. It should be a simple page I think. It's probably easier to see an example of the page I'm talking about: http://edwin.netbits.co.uk/devshed/...blem/index.html In Firefox, it looks fine. But in IE 6 the line "Some text" is slightly more to the right than the line "and some more text". If you select the text on the right, it's slightly more obvious (see screenshot). It seems that the menu on the left is somehow shifting the text over. I have looked at tutorials (such as this one), but the test page I put together has the same problem. I think this is probably a simple problem, but I can't work out what's wrong. The HTML and CSS code is shown below. HTML: Code: <div id="contentscontainer">
<div id="left">
Menu
</div>
<div id="contents">
Some text<br /><br />and some more text
</div>
</div>
CSS: Code: div#contentscontainer
{
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
}
div#left
{
float: left;
width: 50px;
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
}
div#contents
{
padding: 0px;
margin-left: 170px;
}

Thanks for taking time to read my question. How do I position 3 pictures beside eachother with no spaces between them? (so they look like one continuous picture) eg: ______ |1|2|3| |_|_|_| instead of ________ |1||2||3| |_||_||_| Thanks, Brad I would like to align left images so that they touch against each other. Here is a capture of my problem. dollhedz.com/test [CODE] <style type="text/css"> body{ background-color:#000033; color:#00cc33; } #wrapper{ background-color:#000000; margin:15px auto 0px; width:700px; height:800px; } #sitenav{ background-image:url(sitegrax/sitenavback.jpg); background-repeat: no-repeat; height:55px; padding-left:213px; border: 0px; margin:0px; text-align:left; } #one{ float:left; text-align:left; align:left; margin:0px; padding:0px; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <div id="banner"><img src="sitegrax/banner.jpg" alt=" yellow Jacket dodging a 355 smoothbore slug" border="0" /> </div> <div id="sitenav" > <div id="one"><a href=""><img src="sitegrax/bt_game_nav.jpg" alt="site navigation games" border="1" /></a> <a href="" align="left"><img src="sitegrax/bt_history_nav.jpg" alt="site navigation history" border="1" /></a> <a href=""><img src="sitegrax/bt_pilot_nav.jpg" alt="site navigation pilot"border="1" /></a></div> </div> </div> </body> </code> Problem: There is a 5 to 6 pixel space between each image that I would like gone. The 1px border around each image is there to show the edge of each image. thank you for your time I am a bit new to CSS and am currently in the process of converting a design over to CSS2 and have run into come difficulty. I've created a list based horizontal menu and I want elements to align to both the left and right ends. Simply by adding "float:left" to most of the elements and "float: right" to others, I was able to get it to work, but strangely only in Internet Explorer, not in Firefox. The latter seems to drop my right aligned image onto the next line. For the offending code, please see: http://www.forma3.com/stuff/css/top_menu_v1.html http://www.forma3.com/stuff/css/css/right_menu_v1.css Also, any suggestions on the code would be highly appreciated. I have no doubt its more verbose than needed. Hi, I'm having a slight problem with my css. I want to display a comment with a number of images to the right of it. e.g "Excellent" plus 5 stars next to it (note: images of stars) so i tried this: Code: <div id = "commentText"> Excellent </div> <div id = "star"> </div> <div id = "star"> </div> <div id = "star"> </div> <div id = "commentText"> Fantastic </div> <div id = "star"> </div> <div id = "star"> </div> <div id = "star"> </div> <div id = "star"> </div> css Code:
#commentText
{
font-size: 100%;
color: #000000;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-weight: normal;
padding-left: 30px;
}
#star
{
display: inline;
height: 24px;
background-image: url(images/star.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
padding-left: 20px;
}
I currently have comment with 3 stars displayed underneath it - however they are only half being shown for some reason. Any help is appreciated to help me get the desired effect. Thanks! Alright, I run a joomla site and im working on making a 100% tableless xhtml compliant template. I'm very new at this so im trying my best to learn. I used the Lean version of skidoo's layout as the base and then added all the appropriate php tags needed to make it a joomla template. For the one part I need two modules to load right next to each other near the top of the page to mimic the table version of the Latest News and Popular Modules. I'll show you code snipits of how I did it. Code:
html:
<div id="contentColumn">
<div class="inside">
<!-- middle column content begin -->
<p class="blocktext">
<?php mosLoadModules( 'banner', -1 ); ?>
</p>
<div id="users">
<?php mosLoadModules ( 'user1' ); ?>
</div>
<div id="users">
<?php mosLoadModules ( 'user2' ); ?>
</div>
<p>
<div id="nofloat">
<?php mosLoadModules ( 'top' ); ?>
<?php mosMainBody(); ?>
<?php mosLoadModules ( 'bottom' ); ?>
</div>
css:
/*top users */
#users {
float:left;
width: 300px;
}
#nofloat {
float: none;
}
So anyways this does indeed put each div tag side by side but my problem is that I need the following PHP code ( <?php mosLoadModules ( 'top' ); ?> <?php mosMainBody(); ?> <?php mosLoadModules ( 'bottom' ); ?>) to return to the next line after the div's, but instead it jumps everything to the right and breaks the template. So I added the nofloat css and that fixed it and put the rest of the content below the side by side div's but now it doesn't work in FireFox. Now I tried padding-top and that worked in both browsers, but its not flexible as the side by side div modules are not always there and I don't want 200px of white space on the pages that don't show it. Also as a side note I tried putting <?php mosLoadModules ( 'user1' ); ?> and user2 into separate div tags that that floated left and right but it had the same outcome, so I stuck with one float left that seems to work the same. My question is what can I do to make this content show after the side by side div's and not beside it in both browsers? You can see what I mean by looking at this test site in both IE 6 and FireFox. http://www.wii-volution.com/testbed/ Thanks for any help you guys can give me! |
