HTML - Website Looks Fine, But Only On Some Resolutions
I'm making a website on my mac and when I view it it looks fine, but when I view it on my windows px on 1080x720 res it has everything moved to the right some and even the sizes are wrong. But when I change my res to 1280 x 1080 it looks how it does on my mac (which is 1280 x 800 res).
I'm guessing the resolutions are effecting the site's margins and size attributes. Is there a way to fix this? Similar TutorialsHi guys, Been struggling with this for a few days so here's to hoping someone with a better knowledge of HTML can help me out! I've recently put up a little website to (hopefully) get a bit of freelancing work, but noticed when I checked it on a friend's computer that it looks really screwy on resolutions other than the one on my own computer. As in, everything gets scrunched up in the corner leaving a good half of the screen blank. I know the way around this is usually to convert sizes from pixels to percentages in the HTML code, but the inlet frame on the website refuses to cooperate with the percentage-based sizes. I really want this website to fit all resolutions so it looks professional & the way it should. Can anyone help me?? The website's at http://solar-flare.biz so you can get the code there. It's probably a bit of a mess coz I made it with Frontpage then tweaked it manually to get the background to stretch.... but anyway. Massive kudos in advance to anyone who can fix the code!!! Cheers Mateusz Hi tell me if it's not the right place to post this question but I would like to know how to make my website look the same in all screen resolutions and for all browsers. Right now it looks fine in the 800x600 and 1024x768 resolutions for all the major browsers but when I view it with a 1366x768 resolution all the pages are skewed to the left in firefox and only some pages are centered in IE8. Here's the site : http://www.lost-vision.com/ Code for the "contact me" page that isn't centered in both browsers in 1366x768 resolution : Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7"/> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <meta name="description" content="Your description goes here" /> <meta name="keywords" content="your,keywords,goes,here" /> <meta name="author" content="Your Name" /> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="img/favicon.ico"> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="andreas06.css" title="andreas06" media="screen,projection" /> <title>Contact Me</title> <style type="text/css"> <!-- body { background-color: #191919; margin:0 auto; padding-left: 11.2%; padding-right: 11.2%; } --> </style></head> <body> <div align="center"> <div id="container"> <a id="top"></a><p class="hide">Skip to: <a href="#nav">site menu</a> | <a href="#leftside">section menu</a> | <a href="#content">main content</a></p> <div id="sitename"> <h1> </h1> </div> <div id="nav"> <ul> <li><a href="index.html">Home</a></li> <li><a href="affiliates.html">Links</a></li> <li><a href="contact.html">Contact me</a></li> <li><a href="empty.html"> </a></li> </ul> <p class="hide"><a href="#top">Back to top</a></p> </div> <div id="wrap1"> <div id="wrap2"> <div id="leftside"> <p class="soft"> </p> <p class="soft"> </p> <p class="soft"> </p> <p><!-- Begin ShoutMix - http://www.shoutmix.com --> <iframe title="shoutbox_balistik" src="http://www6.shoutmix.com/?shoutbox_balistik" width="140" height="400" frameborder="0" scrolling="auto"> <a href="http://www6.shoutmix.com/?shoutbox_balistik">View shoutbox</a> </iframe> <!-- End ShoutMix --></p> </div> <div id="content"> <h1> </h1> <p><strong>E-mail:</strong></p> <p> <a href="mailto:maitre_mechant@msn.com">maitre_mechant@msn.com</a></p> <p><a href="mailto:balistik94@gmail.com">balistik94@gmail.com</a></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>On other sites:</strong></p> <p><a href="http://balistik94.livejournal.com/">LiveJournal</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/balistik94">Youtube</a></p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p class="intro center"> </p> <p class="intro center"> </p> <p class="hide"><a href="#top">Back to top</a></p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </body> </html> Thanks in advance for your help. Hi guys, I'd really appreciate if someone could please take a look at this site and tell me why I'm getting the alignment issues with some of my divs in internet explorer. Everything looks good in firefox, except that also when the text stretches off the page, the whole site moves to the right a little bit, which I'd like to fix as well. I also just added some span tags but the w3c validator is telling me there's something wrong with it. Could someone suss that one out for me too please? thank you http://www.travellersclinic.com.au/index.html Hi All, im new here so go easy. this might be an easy answer. i am making this website and am positioning items around the site using div tags. the site looks just how i want it to in Firefox but when i open it in IE it has different sizes everywhere and does not match up. also i have a logo in the upper right of the site. how do i get this to resize when the browser size is changed? here is the sites code. <html> <head> <title>Maroondah Trailers</title> </head> <body BGCOLOR="807a7a"> <div style="background-image:url('pictures/bg.gif'); background-repeat: repeat; position: absolute; left: 0%; top: 0%; width: 16%; height: 97%;"></div> <div style="background-image:url('pictures/bg.gif'); background-repeat: repeat; position: absolute; left: 84%; top: 0px; width: 16%; height: 97%;"></div> <div style="background-color: White; position: absolute; left: 16%; top: 15%; width: 68%; height: 82%;"></div> <div style="background-color: ff3600; color: white; position: absolute; left: 16%; top: 15%; width: 68%; height: 4%;"></div> <div style="position: absolute; left: 60%; top: 3%; width: 30%; height: 40%;"><img src="pictures\logo2.gif"></div> <div style="background-color: black; position: absolute; left: 84%; top: 0%; width: .2%; height: 97%;"></div> <div style="background-color: black; position: absolute; left: 16%; top: 0%; width: .2%; height: 97%;"></div> <div style="background-color: black; position: absolute; left: 0%; top: 97%; width: 100%; height: .2%;"></div> <div style="background-color: black; position: absolute; left: 0%; top: 97%; width: 100%; height: .2%;"></div> <div style="background-color: black; position: absolute; left: 16%; top: 15%; width: 68%; height: .2%;"></div> <div style="background-color: black; position: absolute; left: 16%; top: 19%; width: 68%; height: .3%;"></div> </body> </html> heres what they both look like thanks alot Matt I've been customising templates on a CMS over time, mainly using a Mac for the editing side of things, but then checking on a PC with different browsers, of course. I carried out a few changes a while back and things looked fine in Safari, but not so fine when I checked them on IE7. An example: http://www.ukprwire.com/Detailed/Con...uk_11538.shtml Anyone know why the page is extra wiiiiide in IE, but fine in Safari? I've since checked it with Firefox and its fine with that one too. www.intoleranceclothing.com So this is not my expertise to say the least. My page looks fine on my resolution at home (1280x768) but of course does not look as intended on any other resolution. I have a few problems I'm trying to learn how to fix or control. 1) If you click the images of the shirts I want the popup to be centered in the x position and slightly below y center so the "Intolerance Clothing" still shows when the large picture is up. What would be the easiest way to go about this? Is there a way to set absolute position measured from the center of the page or how would I go about this? 2) Kind of along the same lines. The smaller pictures of the shirts align right up to the background image edges in my resolution. How can I go about positioning them so they are always the same location even if the resolution changes. Basically if the resolution gets bigger I'd like everything to just stay as is and add more black solid space around the image. 3) Another smaller change I'd like to make is currently the viewer has to click the larger image for it to close and they cannot bring up another lager image until it is closed. What do I need to modify to allow the larger image to be replaced by a new one if a different shirt is clicked? Thanks for any suggestions on where to go read or look to help solve these issues or if someone is kind enough to point me in the right direction. Looks fine. Does not look fine. The first picture was fine because it was viewed with a 1024x768 resolution(which is the resolution that I'm working on my website with). However, any higher resolutions, and you'll see that the video goes out of place and moves too much to the right(second pic). I need to make it so that the video scales with all resolutions so it stays in place like in the first picture, no matter what the resolution is. Can anyone tell me how to fix this? Please be specific, i.e. what code? Thank you. Hi! I'm having a problem with my website on larger screens. My website looks fine on my 1024 by 768 screen, but when I check it on higher resolution screens, all the content is stuck in the upper left corner leaving a big void on the right. How would I make my content appear in the middle of the screen like most modern websites? Or is there another solution that somebody can propose? Thank you for your time! Hi, I am a photographer and am trying to build my own site. Am using dreamweaver 8 and am ok using it, but my html is a little rubbish. have been developing my site, www.robertallenweddingphotography.co.uk, however just realised i have been developing at 1024x768 but if you look at the site at a lower or higher resolution it looks v.bad. Have read a few bits and pieces about using % instead of set pixels?! but am a bit lost! Can any body point me in the right direction? Basically want to end up with a site that looks 'correct' to as many people as possible! Thanks Rob so i'm working on my new site and everything seemed to be working find until i got to the 8th image since the image is wide instead of a scroll arrow appearing to scroll the page over, the image just collapses below my other divs to fit. can anyone help me fix this? thanks in advance guys this is the website http://www.paulodourado.com/x_milk.html and this is the page where I encounter problems http://www.paulodourado.com/thrice.html I'm trying to create a page where there is a centered background image, and two div's, one on the left and one on the right, all aligned properly. I tested it by syncing it to my website, and I -think- it displays correctly. However it definitely does not display correctly in Dreamweaver, as in Dreamweaver my central background image is slanted to the left for some reason. Can someone please check my code to make sure it has this layout? (Background image centered, with one section on left and one on right, two sections has same size and same distance from background image) But in Dreamweaver it shows up like this, so I'm worried it might not display correctly on computers with different resolutions: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML> <html> <head> <!-- Create container type object containing background image with interactive image links layered on top. --> <!-- Objects are centered on screen. Sub-image positions are relative to container --> <style> #container { display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; position: relative; border:none; width: 380px; height: 633px; background-image: url("pictures/mainmenu.png"); background-position:center; } #container img { position: absolute; border:none; left: 65px; width: 245px; height: 53px; } <!-- the three buttons --> #image1 {top: 225px} #image2 {top: 300px} #image3 {top: 375px} </style> <meta charset="utf-8"> <LINK href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> <title>Main Playlist</title> </head> <body> <br> <br> <div id="wrap"> <div id="left"><a href="ContactInfo.html" style="color:#000">Profile</a></div> <div id="right">Upcoming works</div> <div id="container"> <a href="song1.html"><img src="pictures/button-hualuowuyuan.png" alt="song1" id="image1" /></a> <a href="song2.html"><img src="pictures/button-river.png" alt="song2" id="image2" /></a> <a href="song3.html"><img src="pictures/button-snow.png" alt="song3" id="image3" /></a> </div> </div> </body> </html> CSS: Code: @charset "utf-8"; /* CSS Document */ body { margin:10px; padding:10px; background-image: url(pictures/audigrandpiano.jpg); background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:right bottom; } img.center{ display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; } #wrap { position:relative; min-height:100%; } #left { float:left; width:300px; height:500px; text-align:center; } #right { float:right; width:300px; height:500px; text-align:center; } Really appreciate it Hi there. So I don't need it for 800x600, only the sizes over 1024x768. Basically I made this template which I need to be able to be re-sized when in your browser. I thought I did this right, however I forgot about other resolutions other than 1024x768. When in higher res, the tables break a little and from what I can make out just get a little larger. What I can't work out is how to make them all work properly most large resolutions? Link to the template is he http://www.ruthlessintent.com/penguins/ Im designing a new site and I was kind of wondering a few things that I was hoping to get some answers to. I wasnt sure where this should be posted so if its in the wrong spot please accept my appology. So I do know I want to do alot of css and make it look very professional. 1) I remember at one time that you should make the site big enough to accomidate an 800x600 resolution. But considering that 1024x768 and bigger is pretty common place should I be scaling up to that or still stay at 800x600? My webpage: http://beamsvillepharmacy.com/site/index.html Fits my browser perfectly, however when viewed on other computers with a lower resoultion, the page doesn't fit and is too large. How can I edit my code, or go about making it automatically fit with different resolutions? (Right now it's all simple width="" height="", and that's how I was fitting it) Thanks. I placed an image in the backround of a table on my page. It looks fine on my computer with a square monitor set at 1024x768 pix. When I viewed it on another monitor, a wide screen it displayed about half of my image to the right of where I placed it in the table. Can this be corrected so the image looks correct in all screen resolutions? Here is a link to the page in question. It's the motor in the upper left. The image name is: log2.gif http://cb750sandcastonly.com/new/ Thank You. Hey all, I'm new here and I have a website i designed. The page appears fine when i go to IE but it's all messed up when I view it using Mozilla. I'm stumped. This is my website: www.secondhandoffroad.com Thanks, Uploaded with ImageShack.us My website is www.tuckermatthewsphoto.com This is what my side menu looks like when I open it in Firefox. Note the box to the left of "automotive". It's a link to the home page, just like the "Tucker Matthews Photography" image. I've tried ironing it out all day, caved in and asked for help. In safari the "Automotive" link is in line with the others. Please help! Check my source code and my CSS out! This is killing me! Hello folks. I have been trying out this site as a beta for a hockey team. I am developing a site and have an issue with ONE page in particular. Every other page looks great! http://web.mac.com/chris.ducasse/force_beta/staff.html That is the culprit. I have looked over the source code, and cannot find anything that would cause it. What happens, if you don't see it, is that the page does not take the entire site width, it wraps the text at about 2 inches or so away from the right edge of the page. Any help is appreciated. Also, I got the navigation bar (modified it myself) from Open Source Web Design and want to give the artist credit - where do I do that in HTML code? Thanks again. See http://www.smoli.com I just added the SmoothDivScroll (jQuery add-on) to my page to create scrolling images at the bottom. Unfortunately as a result the table no longer resized correctly to the size of the screen, and the scrolling does not work. This only happens in Firefox, in IE8 everything works as it should. Any idea what is wrong with my code? Many thanks in advance, J. PS: Everything also works fine when previewed from within FrontPage 2k3 (the editor I use to create the page). |
