HTML - Unordered Lists Not Displaying Text Properly
I'm trying to make a sidebar to navigate through the website and basically lays out the entire site on the sidebar (which is a tree with nodes and leafs etc), but when it tries to display the text, it gets really squished up on the right side, but there are still horizontal scrollbars -.-
This is the html after all the PHP stuff: Edit: I put in "width:100em;" in the li section of css. It formatted the text properly, but then the scrollbar continues on forever. Is there any way to find out how many pixels are needed to format the text properly? More specifically, is there any way (javascript, php) to find the length of a string in pixels?

Similar TutorialsI have three user input text boxes called; "name", "email" and "phone" and one text field to display that information called; "feedback". When a "Submit" button is clicked, the three text boxes are validated to check that what was typed inside them was OK. I then want to display the Users' name, email and phone number on individual lines in the text field, for example, name on line 1, email on line 2 and phone number on line 3. At the minute when I submit the information only the phone number displays on the first line of the text box. In the text field "feedback"; I know the HTML probably interprets my code as; the name is being replaced by the email and then the email is being replaced by the phone number. Here is the relevant section of my code. function validate(){ if (validateName () && validateEmail() && validateformatNumber()){ var myName=document.survey.visitor.value; document.survey.feedback.value=myName; var myEmail=document.survey.email.value; document.survey.feedback.value=myEmail; var myPhone=document.survey.phone.value; document.survey.feedback.value=myPhone; return true; }else{ return false; }} I think the solution could be something simple but I haven't much of an idea of how to do it. Thanks in advance. Hey guys, this may seem as an easy solution but I've been pulling hair over it. How do I get rid of the blank line breaks that appear before and after unordered lists? I attached a picture to this thread of what I am exactly talking about. Thanks in advance! http://goldenworldgoods.awardspace.com/ Hello again, I did this site in Dreamweaver, looked fine in my dreamweaver editor, uploaded it and voila everything goes nuts. List of Problems: The Links are not positioned properly, not big enough plus the drop downs to the bottom and not to the right. That was properly my fault since I just copied a suckerfish method... But can someone help with this. If you study the News Header in the CSS, it says it has a background image, how ever it doesn't show when I uploaded it. I know the url and the pic is correct cause it worked in Dreamweaver... The background for "welcome" is all the way up there which isn't supposed to happen, it supposed to be right on top of the Hello text but that isn't happening either. The hello and welcome are supposed to be aligned to the left of the right header. Thats about it, please can someone help me. I've changed the format of this like 3 times just to get it correctly done, but nothings working. Thank you And don't worry I got it all validated and what not Hello there, My site header buttons aren't showing up in Google Chrome. Design fees, web design and answers, are the only buttons that show in Chrome. The header buttons show up fine in IE, Firefox, Safari and others. Site is dreamboxdesigndotcomdotau Any help appreciated! Hello everyone! I have this client who has a lot of resellers, and all of them are on a list in his website, so that when customers look for someone to buy from, they can choose through his site. However, he is afraid that if the list is static, no one will bother to look beyond the first 2 or 3 names, and the ones in the bottom of the list will never be contacted. So, I need to create a method to display the resellers list in such a way that everytime one accesses the list, the order is changed at random, but always displaying all the names. The HTML code the names are arranged right now is a simple table with one reseller per TR tag. I don't work with MySQL, so the solution should be something else... PHP or Java preferred. Thanks in advance! Hi guys this is my first post here, hope you can help. I am currently designing a websitefor the company I work for and the first page is almost completed with the exception of a little glitch. When the page first loads there are a few elements that are in the wrong place. Then when the page is refreshed these elements go where they are supposed to be. I have looked through the html and the css and can't find any problem as to why this is happening. I would really appreciate any suggestions as to why this is happening or how to fix it. If you need anything else just let me know and I'll post it. Thank you As you can see here Here is what it should look like but only does after hitting refresh Hi everyone! On a site I am making there's a table which -- only in the IE-s including version 7 -- is not properly displayed: the column containing the text is only approx. half filled in width. Most (not to say all) other browsers get this right... Anyone got an idea, why this could be? Thx and best, T Hi. I have a question regarding my site. If you click on the link using IE you will see that the images in my tables are cut off on the right, and haven't been scaled at all... In Google Chrome they appear fine. Here is the HTML code snippet: Code: <table>
<tbody>
-snip-
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<div class="large">
<a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/QnqiMcSvmlR_osQplmz-Iw?authkey=Gv1sRgCNbCzI295-KBIg&feat=directlink" target="_blank">
<img class="large" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_lPPWxJaDX_0/S1tmkLXjmBI/AAAAAAAAAVA/782xI-SkNVQ/s640/step1-2.jpg" alt="CashCrate offers page." title="CashCrate offers page.">
</img>
</a>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
-snip-
</tbody>
</table>
And here is some css code: Code: div.large {
width: 100%;
height: 200px;
border: none;
margin-top:6px;
margin-bottom:6px;
overflow: auto;
}
img.large {
width: 98%;
height-max: 600px;
padding: 2px;
border: ridge;
border-color: #66E066;
}
I'm wanting to know what I need to add/change to make the images appear right in all browsers(I've only tested in IE and Chrome). If you need any more info about my page, ask . Thanks. All, i have a minor problem with hyperlinks not displaying properly. In some instances, IE7 does not underline the hyperlink or only partly underlines the link. Please see http://www.tauntonflowershow.co.uk/ and look at the downloads yellow box at the top of the screen. Firefox, Opera etc are all OK. Grateful for any advice you can offer.

Only to have it not display properly in firefox or safari. I've included a link to the site and several screenshots as well as the source code. Please help! This image shows it as it is int ie 7 on windows xp http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...asintended.jpg this image shows it on safari and fire fox: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...art/safari.jpg website link: www.tavasystems.com Thanks in advance. It works great in Firefox, IE, and even on my iPhone (Safari), but it's having problems in Chrome and on my friend's Mac (Safari). I have a form with 2 tables inside. The first table is aligned left at 47% of the width. The second table is aligned right at 47% of the width. It should look like this: But instead looks like this in Chrome and Safari...it appears that it's centering both tables instead of aligning them left and right to give 2 separate columns. Any ideas? Here is some of my stripped down code: ----------------------------------- <div id="FormLayer" style="position:absolute; width:680px; height:455px; z-index:3; left: 65px; top: 330px; border:0"> <form action="form.php" method="post" name="orderform" id="orderform"> <input type="hidden" name="recipients" value="email.com"> <input type="hidden" name="required" value="actor:Actor's Name, email:Your Email=confirm:The emails you entered did not match, show:Name of the Show, episode:Your Episode|date:Air Date, character: Character's Name, description: Description of Scenes"> <input type="hidden" name="good_url" value="success.htm"> <table width="47%" align="left" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5"> <tr> <td><div align="left" class="style3"> <label for="actor"><span class="style2"> Actor's Name:</span></label> </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><input name="actor" type="text" id="actor" size="40" maxlength="50"></td> </tr> <table width="47%" align="right" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5"> <tr> <td><div align="left" class="style3"> <label for="character"><span class="style2"> Character's Name:</span></label> </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><input name="character" type="text" id="character" size="40" maxlength="50"></td> </tr> </table> </form> Im hoping someone can help me out on this one im just getting back into coding so im a little rusty but i am somewhat stumped by this issue i have a table that the text refuses to align to top middle unless its divided up into a new cell. The best it will do is align middle left of the cell but refuses to go to the top. The site that it is on with the issue is www.gamersjoy.com the table in question is the center table with updates, as you can see everything is pushed halfway down and aligned to the left Any help would be greatly appreciated as it is slowing me down from finishing my project thanks in advance Tcanuth I don't know if this should really go in the css forum or here, but here it is. The page in question is at the following link: http://www.sikaband.com/archives/new/index.html and the css file being referenced is: http://www.sikaband.com/archives/new/blackstyle.css Viewing the page in Firefox, the links in the navigation bar are centered the way they ought to be. Safari for some reason shunts the text off to the right a good ways. When I put a visible border on the div in question, I can see that the div itself is aligned properly, it's just the text inside that's off. I'm confused. Can someone take a look at this page: http://www.robotsandcomputers.com/ro...wcomplaint.htm in IE and tell me why the text isn't showing up? It shows up just fine in Chrome and Firefox. Thanks... I would appreciate anyone's help in determining why my text is not going all the way to the right side of the "maintext" container. You can view the problematic webpage at: http://www.cornerstonecontractingcom...emp/about.html The associated CSS can be viewed at: [url="http://www.cornerstonecontractingcompany.com/temp/default.css"]http://www.cornerstonecontractingcompany.com/temp/default.css[/URL Thank you very much for your help. Hey guys been having a few problems finding resources on how to vertically align text. what it is is that i have a division i wish to display text in vertically... Any ideas? div{vertical-align: -50%} thats what i came up with but still no joy... Hi I have a Flash and HTML version of my friends site at www.backlash.net.au On the main page, I have an ABOUT and NEWS section, that gets it's text from external .txt files. Problem is, the text gets formatted without line breaks in the HTML version, but fine in Flash. I was wondering if there is a better way to import the text, whilst only having one external source for each section, and still keeping the process simple (my friend isn't too computer savvy)? I thought of using a php include, and having my friend just enter the text in a simple HTML editor. I can set that up for HTML, but am unsure how to import the PHP page into Flash. Any ideas on the best way to tackle the problem? Thanks for your time and info. Shaun |
