HTML - Scroll Bar Sizing Help?
Hi,
I have been having issues with a scroll bar on my page, and have tried a few different html codes, and have messed with sizing but am not getting the result I want. Here is the page I am referring to: http://userwww.sfsu.edu/~davidson/ar...tractbody.html I would like for there to be only the horizontal bar, like I have. But I would like the box to be smaller (i've tried making the grid's width smaller, but then the scrollbar doesn't have the pictures side-by-side, but pushes one to the bottom and it creates a vertical scroll bar). I would like it to be so that one picture or one and a half pictures, it doesn't matter, is shown. i want less to be automatically visible. i want it so you just scroll to view the rest, all side by side. Hopefully that makes sense? Thank you!!! Similar TutorialsCan anyone help me out? I've set up a test site for a project where I have a scrollable table within an iFrame. Techincally, its an iFrame within an iFrame which gets you to a scrollable table I also added an auto-scroll with anchor-links. Everything finally works, but I really want to remove the horizontal-scroll bar that shows up, while keeping the vertical-scroll bar. (Upon testing, I found without the vertical-scroll bar, the anchor-links and auto-scroll don't work correctly.) here's the link to the test site: http://www.thegrandamerican.com/ here's the line of code I think is the correct place to make corrections: <iframe id="myiframe" name="myiframe" src="oprah june 09_news.htm" width="900" height="475" scrolling="yes" overflow-y: scroll></iframe> The hierarchy works as follows: index.htm > spotlight_news.htm > oprah june 09_news.htm The reason for all the iframes is to have elements on the higher pages that will stay in place, such as a music player and dynamic menu bar. other notes and associated files (for the auto scroll) a smooth-src-comments.js smooth.pack.js Thanks. - J Im having problems getting my table to the right size. I want it to be 100% of the page but it only becomes 100% of whats inside the table. Any ideas what to do to solve this? Thanks Jake At the mo, the code is Code: <table summary="News" width="100%"> Ok I was just informed that on our companies site that there is a new window that pops up when a link is clicked. This is supposed to happen but the one thing I am trying to figure out is that the new window is rather small and the customer has to always enlarge it. They are using IE. I have tested it with IE7 with the same results as reported but it has also been tested with FF and SeaMonkey and the new window is large. Is this an IE thing, perhaps a setting or do I actually have to add something to my CSS/HTML to account for this? Thank you for the help. How can I make my forms smaller. I already know how to control length, but how can I make the height lower. Hi, I'm using an image for my web background, but I have a little problem. I have to go and size the image correctly in the image editing program for it to look right, but then if you resize the webpage it doesn't look right. Is there a way to make the image automatically resize itself depending on the size of the person's screen? How do I make this simple HTML/CSS page look the way I want? If you render this code in a browser, you will see what I'm trying to do. Thanks! Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN"> <html> <head> <title>Vertical Sizing Test Page</title> </head> <body style="margin: 0; background-color: #FFF; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;"> <div style="background-color: #FED; padding: 10px; height: 25px;"> Top Banner. I want this to be sized in pixels to accommodate raster backgrounds. </div> <div style="background-color: #DEF; padding: 10px; margin: 10px; border: 1px dotted black;"> <h2>Main Content Area</h2> I want this to vertically fill the remainder of the page.<br/> <br/> There should not be any unused space below the bottom banner.<br/> <br/> If there is a lot of dynamic content in this section, the user will need to scroll.

It's actual size is 10.60 inches wide by 5.30 inches of height. Using WIDTH="744" and HEIGHT="600" (as shown on the code below) does not display the entire image. Can someone tell me the right setting of values to fix it? Is there a code to authomatically capture whatever the size of the .jpg and make it fit? Thanks in advance. Here's the html: <p align="center" <APPLET code=string WIDTH="744" HEIGHT="600"> <param name="para_back" value="background.jpg"> </APPLET> </p> Is there an HTML script that will automatically proportionately size a graphic? Say you set the Height=100 then the Width=?? would be automatically adjusted depending on the actual size of the parent graphic. How can I make the browser window that my site is in automatically have specific height/width dimensions? Making toolbar and scrollbar go away would also be nice. Hi, I have made a site recently, its fairly dodgy looking but thats what they wanted, it all worked out well except for one of the pages the 'footer' section of the main table wont resize properly, all the pages are coded exactly the same for the section, but just one page wont work the site is www.thesavergroup.com and the page that wont behave is the eftpos page. Any help would be appreciated i'm going nuts over this. Thanks Chris I am using the following code that creates the desired effect in Firefox 2 but not in IE 7. By increasing the height of the image in the "rowspan=2" cell at the bottom-right, I would like only the bottom-left and bottom-center cells to expand vertically. However, this only happens in FF and not IE. In IE the middle-left and middle-center cells also expand. Any ideas how to make this work, and control which cells expand? Code: <table width="200" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#FF00FF">
<tr>
<td><img src="student01.jpg" width="100" height="100" /></td>
<td bgcolor="#9900FF"><img src="student01.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></td>

Hello. I have an HTML website image background that I am trying to stretch across any screen resolution, while keeping the image "fixed" in one position, so the image does not shrink when the screen window is modified. I got everything to work correctly, however I cannot get the image to stay at a "fixed size" when I shrink the window. Can somebody please help me? I am a beginner programmer, but I have tried numerous processes before resorting to this forum. Here is my code...in case you want to preview it in a web browser. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer me to get the image to stay "fixed" and also to keep it stretched across the entire screen.

Hi, I just got back into HTML and CSS and stuff for a new project after a lengthy absence. I'm also trying out PHP for the first time and having a lot of fun with it, but I'm having problems as usual. This doesn't have to do with PHP per se, but if PHP is involved in the solution that'd be just fine. By contrast, I'd like to avoid Javascript, since a lot of people have it disabled by default. One of the things that's always irked me about CSS is how it seems to be completely impossible to define an element's width/height based on its container's width/height without using percentages or without weird things happening when you use padding. Say I want to do one of the simplest things imagineable -- define a rectangular area within the page, with 25 pixels both to the left and right of it, and 12 pixels above and below it, no matter what the browser window's size is. While it's no task to set the rectangle's position relative to the body of the page (using left and top, or whatever), deciding its width or, particularly, height seems to be impossible. 100% - 25px is, sadly, not allowed, even if I incorporate PHP, since PHP has no way of telling what the 100% actually represents. I've been puzzling over this for the last couple hours, and after a great deal of fiddling with alignments, margins, padding, and such, these two pieces of really simple HTML are the best I could do, and they're both flawed: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body
{
margin: 0px;
padding: 12px 25px 12px 25px;
background-color: darkblue;
}
#inner_box
{
position: relative;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: lightblue;
}
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="inner_box">
Text
</div>
</body>
</html>
Paste that into a HTML file to see what I'm talking about graphically. The problem here is clearly that, for whatever reason, the 100% height in inner_box doesn't activate and inner_box ends up only as high as a single line of text allows. I don't know why. But in this next example... Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body
{
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
background-color: darkblue;
}
#outer_box
{
position: absolute;
margin: 0px;
padding: 12px 25px 12px 25px;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: lightblue;
}
#inner_box
{
position: relative;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: white;
}
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="outer_box">
<div id="inner_box">
Text
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Here I've fixed the problems with the first snippet by adding a new container (outer_box) with absolute positioning that covers the entire body area. inner_box goes inside it and tries to act like it did in the first example. Unfortunately, for some reason, outer_box doesn't act like the body tag did in the first example -- when padding is added to it in order to position the elements within it, outer_box expands itself instead of just resizing inner_box, like the body tag did. I've done a lot of experimenting and I simply can't find the solution. All I want is a page with a few pixels of blank space to all sides of a floating rectangle. I uploaded a couple of doctored image samples of what the page should look like, but doesn't: here and here. Anyway, in summation, this is driving me nuts. I know I could probably use Javascript to get the container (body or outer_box)'s width, and go from there, but like I said, I'd rather avoid Javascript. There has to be a better way to do this. Any help would be very welcome. EDIT: After some more experimenting, I've discovered something interesting. If I declare example 1's doctype to be: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> then it works properly. The same cannot be said for example 2. And I really can't tell why. I guess HTML forgives something that XHTML doesn't. Also, example 1 doesn't work if I include the HTML doctype's URL: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> Strange. Anyway though, it's important to make example 2 work since I would usually be working with containers within containers, not just within the body tag. So I still haven't solved my problem. Ive been looking EVERYWHERE for a site with a code for a scroll box with a trasparent scroll bar, Ive seen the code where I can edit the size of the box as well as the color of the box itself and I know how to do THAT. how do I make it where the code displays the scroll code as well so I can fully customize it? it seems that its always hidden.. this is my page http://web.vtc.edu/users/cjb06271/CI...nal/order.html there are several things I would like to happen. 1. the right collumn background to be where the right collumn should be(so other links in navbar) 2.The test between the roach pictures to be alligned with the top rather than bottom of pictures (so smaller windows can see) 3. When you size the window smaller than the text, a scroll bar appears, and when you scroll the background no longer exists. If I put it on auto the background will only go as far as the text does. 4. (nice but not required)The cocroachs to be alligned to the left and right of the top bar respectively, and the text in the middle. 5. (nice but not required) the right column background image is being cut in half (as does the top one if you size small enough). any way to make the images ignore the collumns? don't worry about the colors I will be changing them soon Im developing a homepage, www.hallevikslagret.se My problem is, when your using a small resolution or if you make the browserwindow to small the menu at the top disapears. Ive tried many different ways to show a scroll but i cant solve it. How do i get a scroll when the content gets to big. I know that im not using correct XHTML-language on the page. I will get to that as soon as possible when i solve this problem. Thank you for your time! Best Regards Jens hi i have a large text i want to make it into a scroll bar and i want it to be set up like how i typed it and i really need help on this Hello. I'm currently trying to help my friend develop his website. He wants to put a banner that's linked back to his site, and then underneath a scroll box which contains the code to put the banner in anywhere. The problem is, whenever I try, and I put the code in the scroll box, it shows the banner, instead of the actual code. How can I stop the banner from showing up? Thank you I had the problem of my page shifting to the right whenever it was too long for the window to allow a scroll bar so I added this overflow-y:scroll; to the body information in the css sheet. It works fine in most browsers but I've noticed that with IE7 the scroll appears in the top part of the margin and not on the browser side. It just doesn't look right. Please advise. Here's the link. http://www.yotti.de/indextemp.html Ok I have a dive that scrolls and when i scroll it, it goes behind another div, which is what i want , but the problem is i don't want it to apear on the other side of the div but i still want to see the background. so i was wondering if there is a way i can make the scrolling div go behind another div that is invisible or something and make the scrolling div go invisible at this section so you can still see the rest of the scrolling div, but not the part behind the invisble div. if someone knows how to do this or a more simple way, that does not involve changing the size of the scrolling div as i want the scrollbar to be the height of the page. |
