HTML - Funky Divs

Hello, I've been dealing with this problem and it seems fairly simple but has got me scratching my head. The page works fine in Firefox (of course) but internet explorer draws this problem.



There are gaps between the DIVS and I have tried messing with the margins and padding a bit but have had no luck.

here is the page in Firefox:


Here is the code in page.
HTML Code:

<div id="container">
<div id="head"><a href=""><img src="hd_1.png" border="0" /></a></div>
<div id="ev_top"><img src="ev_top.png" />
</div>
<div class="float"><img src="ev_l1.png" />
</div>


<div class="ev1">
<div class="ev2">Dallas</div>
<div><a href=""><img src="ev_dallas_tba.png" border="0" /></a></div>
<div class="ev3"><div class="float"><img src="/bullet_blue.png" /></div>
<div class="ev4"><a href="">May - TBA</a></div>
<div class="ev5">| <a href="">&nbsp;More...</a></div>
</div>
</div><div class="float"><img src="ev_gap1.png" /></div>
<div class="ev1">
<div class="ev2">New York</div>
<div><a href=""><img src="ev_ny.png" border="0" /></a></div>

<div class="ev4"><a href="">04.29 - 87 Lounge</a></div>
<div class="ev5">| <a href="">&nbsp;More...</a></div>
</div>

<div class="float"><img src="ev_botr.png" /> </div>
</div>
<div id="blog_right"><img src="blog_rt_gap.png" /></div>
<div id="blog_contain">

Style sheet:

Any ideas? Help would be appreciated! Thanks.

Could anyone explain to me how to put rounded corners on divs?

Ive researched it a bit, but i want to be able to change the colours so i dont want to use image based if possible. found a way to do it but want more than one curved div but cant seem to be able t use different colours.

I want to have one large rounded div on the webpage then some smaller ones within this one for nav menus and content etc,

Have found some ideas but they dont work with IE.

Ok, I'm completely self taught, so don't be surprise if my html is a mess. I was told recently that I'm out of date in using tables and should be using divs, so in updating my website that's what I'm trying to do.

The first one is that it doesn't display properly in IE. Can anyone tell me why, and how to rectify it?

There are other problems (as you'll be able to see), but I'd like to work that one out first.

Thank you,

Hello, I have a div tag that is scrolled vertically. I found some java code he https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM...scrollIntoView that allows me to use a "Scroll to Top" button at the bottom of the DIV to help navigate it back to the top.

Problem is, that I want the page to remain in the same position, whereas this seems to be making my page scroll to the bottom at the same time as scrolling the div to the top.

Has anyone got any ideas on howto scroll a div to the top, without the page reloading, or scrolling?

Thanks
Jay

Hello,

Please have a look at this site: http://www.shahspace.com/bow/home.html

As you can see, I have two div colored pink and some space between them and around them. I'd like to get rid of all spacing but I can't.

Here's the code:

Code:

<html>

<head>

<title>The Bow Tower</title>

<style>

body
{
background: url('content_bg.jpg');
background-repeat: repeat-x;
}

#textdiv
{
width: 230px;
height: 100%;
background-color: #ffaaaa;
float: left;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}

#imgdiv
{
width: 250px;
height: 100%;
background-color: #ffaaaa;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}

span
{
font-size: 18pt;
font-family: verdana;
font-weight: bold;
}

</style>

</head>

<body>

<div id="textdiv">
<br>
<br>
<span>
The Bow Tower<br>
</span>
<br>
<br>
<ul>
<li><a href="services.html">Services</a></li>
<li><a href="information.html">Information</a></li>
<li><a href="health_safety.html">Health and Safety</a>
<li><a href="index.html">Index</a>
</ul>
</div>

<div id="imgdiv"><img align=right src="bow tower.jpg" border=0></div>

</tr>
</table>

</body>
</html>

What can I do to get rid of the spacing (I'm working in IE9).

Hi Guys

How do I make scrollable divs ? Like the ones in hotmail contacts when writing a new email.

Hi all

I have a question which im sure is very simple to answer but has been frustrating me for three days (yes i am aware i may have prooved my own ineptitude )

If any of you have a moment could you have a look at the code below.

What im trying to do is center the divs no matter what the screen resolution.Im hoping, due to my huge lack of experience, that im just missing something very obvious.

Below is the code ...

Hello, I've came here because I am really stuck on this one problem... I can't float another DIV right so it's beside another DIV. ( http://www.lentonent.com )

Please could you fix this source code so one div is on the left and one is on the right and they both have a background of middle.png:

Code:

<html>
<head>
<style>
#middle
{
  width: 900px;
  background: url(images/middle.png) repeat-y;
}

#middle-left
{
  width: 580px;
  padding: 25px;
  border: 1px solid #000;
}

#middle-right
{
  width: 200px;
  padding: 25px;
  border: 1px solid #000;
  float: right;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
  <div id="middle">
    <div id="middle-left">
      <h1>LEFT SIDE</h1>
<p>This text should be on the left hand side. I'm just going to write a little 

crap now to make this paragraph really long and cool just like a frog standing on 

a spoon. Yes very random indeed but that's not what the bus shelter said.</p>

Okay, this may be kind of a doozy, but after some thought, I've come to a point where I am looking into using php inc instead of an iframe for my content display, and I want to know how I could go about using divs to set up the site to look exactly the same with php inc. (EDIT: Minus the scrollbar from the iframe of course)

Like if I stuck the Navigation and the Login section into one php file, the 'stats' and miniblog section into a second php file, the header and footer each in their own php file, how would I go about aligning the divs so that I could just php inc everything?

I'm first off assuming that this would be the correct way to do it. Any suggestions are welcome so long as they're not about my table usage I'm aware that many don't prefer them, but I've made them work across five popular browsers, so I'm happy with it.

TIA for any who can offer some insight.

PS: I suppose I should also add that I'm pretty much an ignorant incompetent when it comes to div layers, so bear with me

Hi, I am making my own HTML homepage and I would like to have a button/text saying: 'Close', at the top-right. But I don't seem to be able to work out how to have multiple DIVs on one line. I have tried floating but it doesn't seem to work.
By the way, I am editing with SuperEdi.

i have a prob in ie6 my divs go down. please take a look at my site

amazingcoloradotravel.com/elkrange

can someone give me a pointer where i gone wrong?

hoping for your kind consideration regarding this matter

Hi Folks,

I am pretty new to web page development. I want to layout a page as follows:

a) Header fixed height, width 100%
b) left column fixed width
c) Main content variable dependent on screen resolution
d) right column fixed width
E) footer always visible at bottom of screen

I have been experimenting with div's to do this and I am having problems getting things to line up the way I want. I know I could easily achieve this using a table but I have the impression that it's frowned upon to do it this way. So my questions a

a) Is it considered bad practice to use a table to control the layout of a page ?
b) If so why ?

TIA,
JC

Hi,

I'm new to this forum.

I'm having a little problem. It's the first time I'm working with DIV containers. I want to place 4 containers one below the other with no spaces in-between. In Firefox it works fine but not in IE.

Can this problem be fixed?

/Patrick

I think this is a html question, though if it needs to be moved to CSS please let me know.

Basically, I'm using divs for the first time. I've got the same rough layout for each page on the site, but in one of them I need to insert a table. When I insert the table it puts a great big gap in the div just above where the table starts.

Why is it doing that? Can I stop it? How do I get around this?

Help!
