HTML - How To Make Left Column Div Same Length As Containing Page
I have a left menu column but it's not stretching down the length of the page. The page is quite long and when the links are finished on left column it just ends and as it has abackground colour it looks a little strange. It is floated left and the main_section is also floated left. It is the main section div that is long. I was thinking because this is in a div that the left coumn is also in that the left column would therefore stretch to the length of it's parent div.
Any ideas? http://absolute-websites.com/services.html is the link so you can see what I'm talking about. Here is a section of the HTML : HTML Code:
<div class="left_column">
<div class="breadcrumb"><p><a href="index.html">home ></a>services</p></div>

Similar TutorialsI've attached the code for a template I'm wanting to use. I want to add a column to the left side of the page that runs the length of the page. Is there anyone out there who can assist me with the code to do that. I'd be exceedingly grateful. I'm afraid I'm table dyslexic. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help. Hey, I have a sample page he www.darkdayssoftware.com/indexotheridea.html How do I make space for and create a column down the left and right (e.g. a space for adverts) and ensure that when I resize the web paste, the main column in the middle doesn't overlap the column to the left, and similarly the column on the right doesn't overlap the column in the middle? Thanks Hi all, Im afraid im getting a little frustrated. My fault.. Im new here but need your help. I run a forum, phpbb3 based but the style im currently using is very much HTML based. I am looking to have a left hand column within my forum but really dont know how to do it, well to add to what i already have. I think for you to know what style docs i have you would have to have a look yourself or look at my existing source code.. http://www.pricelessparrots.com/phpbb3/ Ok i have the new style ' VistaX '. This link will take you to the original download: It can be found he It seems this style is mostly created using HTML. Could someone please tell me how to add a left hand column to the page. I would like it to be on the left hand side all the way down after the header. I thought i would have a go at it but becoming increasingly frustrated with it. such a simple thing but i cannot get it. Do i float it, using css or what? I thought about using a seperate page to create the table and then include it into the doc but this doesnt work either. Plz help.. Paul What would be the best way to center the items listed in the left column? Thank you. Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0.11 Transitional//EN">

Hello, I need to create a 3 -column lay out with the left and right columns having 200px each and the middle column take the rest. Here is my html markup: HTML Code: <div style="width: 100%"> <div style="width: 200px; float:left;">Left column</div> <div style="width: 100%; float:left;">Middle Column</div> <div style="width: 200px; float:left;">Right Column</div> </div> It's not working for me . Please help. This could be an HTML or CSS problem, but I can't figure out what's causing this and it's driving me nuts! The left column on my website will not stay a fixed width of 175px in IE 8. That seems to be the only browser having a problem. Here's the link: http://www.jrsart.net/testarea/paull...cientists.html I've linked the page that has it the worst, but if you visit the other pages and keep an eye on the left column's border, you'll see it keeps moving. Please help! I'm rapidly running out of time to fix this issue, so any advice would be greatly appreciated! Good day, I am brand new here in this forum. So many knowledgeable folks here. I am relatively new to web design. I typically use templates and themes and tweak them. I can navigate a CSS doc and html to make changes, etc. However, I have a client who has an existing site that she wants to keep the aesthetic of and so I am using what the previous designer left. It is a simple html page with tables. Simple enough. Very elegant visually. No need to SEO really so it works. She has asked if we can make the left column of a two column table scroll independently. The page content is about over 6000px. The scroll column will contain a page outline and other text that will include internal targeted links. This is outside my skill set, but I want to learn. Have searched the net and found some suggestions but want it to be clean and ended up here. There is no style sheet other than the ie6 sheet. Page is he http://www.themedeaproject.com/proposaltestpage.html no graphics are loaded. Can anyone point me to a good tutorial or have any suggestions? Thanks! BlueEyedMonkey aka Tatyanna How do I figure out the lenght of the page (content, not browser window) so that I can make all of my regions line up at the bottom? I noticed that % in the height attribute is related to the window not content. I have also tried auto, but that is different for different content. My page has an outside region, a left nav bar and a content region, and I don't know how to make the bottom line up without tables. Sorry if this is confusing. Thanks in advance. I am trying to make a page that has a DTML (dynamic expanding links), and a right hand column - Below is my code. I want to make the right hand colunm (most common questions grey area) a fixed height. It seems to be the length of the page as if all the menus are clicked on and opened even if they are closed. How can I make it a fixed height regardless of how many links (dhtml) are opned or not so that most common questions are no longer than say 500 pixles. Any suggestions would be handy. I can send code / page as its to long to paste here! Thanks, Ryan Hi there, I am currently building a website in dreamweaver. It's going slow but so far I have overcome ever problem with the help of people like you! The problem I'm at at the moment is pretty tricky. If you visit. http://aquariusspa.co.uk/flw%5Fver2/flw_ver2.html This site I built with photoshop and then exported as html. Now i'm adding content and the nav bar (which isn't quite working right!). So what i'm looking to do is have the main box (one with welcome in it) change height depending on what i enter in to it. Every page has different amount of text. Now I could just build every page in photoshop for the desired page height but surely there must be a way of stretching what i've got with out wreaking the graphics. Thanks in advance. S Not sure if I worded that right. But I have a 3 column table with three rows. And I want a row with no columns at the top that is the full width, so I can put a title in there. how do I do that? Here is my current title. Thank you. Code: <table id="box-table-b">

Hello Everyone, i am new to HTML, i am trying to develop my first website. I am using asp.net , C#, HTML, CSS and Visual studio2008 on windows Xp I had a page, in that i moved the tables to center. after moving the tables to center i found the white space on the left and right sides of the page. Now i want to fill the white space which is on the left and right sides of the page with the black color. Can anyone please help me thank you regards john. Hi, I'm new here but know a little bit about making websites. This one has seemed to stumped me, my webpage he Edit: link removed, problem solved and the other links: Order online, testimonials, about us, and contact us all render exactly in firefox, however my products page gets shoved to the left a couple of clicks for some odd reason. I narrowed it down a bit; it seems as if its only letting me to post a few paragraphs until it does it, meaning i can remove the animation and some paragraphs, and it looks the way i want it, but when I add the paragraphs back even without the slideshow the problem persists. Using expression web 3. Thank You a bunch for your help. I'm just starting to get into HTML / CSS and I had a question I was hoping someone would be able to give me a hand with... The page I'm working on has a logo in the top left corner that gets cut off when the browser window is reduced to a smaller size. The left navigation bar, however, always appears in the browser window, regardless of size. I'd like to have this left side "anchor" to include the logo so that it always appears. Please let me know if you require additional information or if I have not described the issue clearly enough. Thank you! How can I make the text appear at left bottom... I have 3 taGS RETURNING DATA FROM sql: <p> #TOC# </p> <p> BUSINESS POLICY TRADEMARK REGULATIONS. </p> <p> #Qry.USERSIGN# </p> I want the text from this tag to appear one after other at left bottom: For example: This is basic algebra lesson. BUSINESS POLICY TRADEMARK REGULATIONS. Smith How to do that? Any advise is appreciated.RosieGp Some mouses today have horizontal scroll, some call the tilt. It looks something like: http://www.htmlforums.com/attachment...1&d=1242556560 I noticed that many websites they code those horizontal scroll to go to next/prevous page. For example Discuz! forum system has this function. While you browse hundreds or thousands of posts separated into pages, the horizontal scroll can take you to previous page or next page.(not browser back/forward) How do I code like that? Or any examples? Hi. I can't figure out how to have all the tables on my site aligned to the centre yet have the text in them aligned to the left. In other words I want 2 margins either side of the central body of my site. How can I do this? Thanks. Hi there I'm trying to make a website for a friend - http://wwwdev.cfpaddler.co.uk. At the top of the site is a 1x40 pixel (WxH) GIF - a horizontal gradient - that is told to have a width of 100% so that it takes up the entire width of the browser window, regardless of resolution. I want to put a 250-pixel-wide JPEG immediately to the left of this GIF and then make the GIF take up the rest of the space available. I tried setting the GIF width to 100% again but it puts the JPEG on the top line and then stretches the GIF across the entire window just beneath it. I'd be happy to use PHP (although I'm a beginner at it) to maybe detect the user's browser window width (if it's possible?) then perform a calculation to find what 100% width minus 250 pixels is... Any suggestions are very much appreciated; thanks for taking the time to read this. Chris Images in question are http://wwwdev.cfpaddler.co.uk/images/top_border.gif and http://wwwdev.cfpaddler.co.uk/images/top_logo.jpg. I have the following Web Page: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta content="en-gb" http-equiv="Content-Language" /> <meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="Content-Type" /> </head> <body > <div style="margin:auto;text-align:center"> <div><img height="227" src="Images/2010BikeRide_BestTeamRU_360x227.jpg" width="360" /></div> <div><img height="227" src="Images/2010BikeRide_BestTeamRU_360x227.jpg" width="360" /></div> <div><img height="227" src="Images/2010BikeRide_BestTeamRU_360x227.jpg" width="360" /></div> </div></body> </html> If I add another DIV with an image inside it, the images all move to the left by 8 to 10 pixels. This is the second version of the page: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta content="en-gb" http-equiv="Content-Language" /> <meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="Content-Type" /> </head> <body > <div style="margin:auto;text-align:center"> <div><img height="227" src="Images/2010BikeRide_BestTeamRU_360x227.jpg" width="360" /></div> <div><img height="227" src="Images/2010BikeRide_BestTeamRU_360x227.jpg" width="360" /></div> <div><img height="227" src="Images/2010BikeRide_BestTeamRU_360x227.jpg" width="360" /></div> <div><img height="227" src="Images/2010BikeRide_BestTeamRU_360x227.jpg" width="360" /></div> </div></body> </html> I have no idea why the page center moves to the left, but it means that I can't get my page banner to appear the same on every page. (I've stripped out all the extra content and codes to just leave the offending images.) I primarily use Firefox, but the same is happening in IE and Opera. Can anybody tell me what's happening? (I apologise if this is a well known, frequently asked question, but I couldn't find an answer and this is driving me up the wall, so any help is appreciated.) I have a Web Page with a Form on it. How/where can I add a left hand column that will run all the way down the left side? Here is the page code, and I've attached an image of what it looks like now. Thanks.
