HTML - Not Getting Proper Alignment In Ie
I am having HTML page which also includes css.
It works properly in firefox, but in IE the whole document is not get well aligned What changes should i have to make to view it in any browser. Thanks Similar TutorialsHi, my name is Josh, and I'm fairly new to website design, so therefore, also a little new to HTML. I apologize in advance for the length of my post, but I feel I really need to be specific as much as possible. Let me be honest with you. I have very limited knowledge on the subject, but I am a quick learner. Anyway, I'm creating a directory on my website where the visitor would be able to clink on one of 51 links, aligned in 3 columns, to take them to a page listing businesses within one of the 50 states. The 51st link, of course, would be directing visitors to an international listing page. Then below the links for the different states, there is supposed to be 26 links, one for each letter of the alphabet, so the visitor can find a business by name. Following that, of course, would begin the listing of the businesses. Basically, I've been teaching myself HTML so far by viewing the source code of pages I visit, and I discover a basic idea of how to do different things with web design. Let me show you the format I've been trying to grasp with this project by giving you an example code. The following code places the links for the states all at the bottom, and also they are not aligned properly, as the first column appears higher than the second which is also higher than the third. I'm not sure I quite understand the way this code works, or what mistake I'm making with it. What I would actually rather do is have a code creating a drop-down box which the visitor would just select their option, and be directed to the requested page immediately, but I don't know how to do that either. At any rate, I do also need to figure out how to get those state-by-state links to appear at the top of the business listings instead of at the very bottom of the page the way it is appearing now with this code. If anybody could help me figure out what the heck I'm doing, I would really appreciate it.

I placed three dots "..." in many places to signify where large irrelevant portions of the page have been omitted, especially where I eliminated the thousands of business listing codes...lol. It may also have not been necessary to provide as much of the code as I did, but I just wanted to make sure that what I need is understood so perhaps I can get some help. Thank you everyone in advance for your assistance... Hello, I'm currently hosting my website through another domain but am using a .com which forwards you to my site. Example; go to www.example.com and it takes you to www.bluered.com/example/main.html . The problem is that when searching through Google, it is not recognizing my .com name, only the hosting url. I attempted a Java 301 redirect which I applied to the body section of my HTML but I am not sure if it worked. This is the code I entered: <% response.setStatus(301); response.setHeader( "Location", "http://www.new-url.com/" ); response.setHeader( "Connection", "close" ); %> I replaced the "http://www.new-url.com/" with my .com name and placed this code in the code on my landing page. Can anyone give me some suggestions, tips? It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you I am still unsure of the proper time to use <td>s <table>s etc. I have been getting into the habit of always useing CSS to format my pages. Will using <table>s make it any easier to make my web pages? Second, I was wondering if there are any good websites providing free help with Fireworks 8. I am not very good with it and want to learn more to make my sites more appealing. Thank-you. Nathan I am unsure which of the below methods of embedding a flash object into a web page is correct - and which is a deprecated method. Any help would be very much appreciated! Method one: <object width="800" height="480"> <param name="movie" value="Gallery.swf"> <embed src="Gallery.swf" width="800" height="480"> </embed> </object> -- Method two: <script type="text/javascript"> var flashvars = {XMLFile: "gallery.xml"}; var params = {bgcolor: "#000000"}; swfobject.embedSWF("Gallery.swf", "myAlternativeContent","800", "480", "9.0.0",false, flashvars, params); </script> <div id="myAlternativeContent"> <a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer"> <img src="http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_player.gif" alt="Get Adobe Flash player"/> </a> </div> Hello, I'm writing .html text usully like: Code: <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-us" /> <meta http-equiv="image" content="no" /> </head> But all website's syntax a Code: <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-us" /> <meta http-equiv="image" content="no" /> </head> Is there any software to make that ? Or i have type by hand everythink ? Hello- A quick question for those in the know: Is it considered "proper" to put multiple between words to space them out, or is another method preferred as the "correct" way to do it? I've used tables and transparent 1x1 .gifs for spacing as well depending on the page, but there are a number of times where it's just easier to lay about ten or fifteen nbsps in there till the text is nudged over where you need it and be done with it. Makes for an ugly source, but seems to work fine. It seems to render properly doing it this way, at least in IE and Firefox, but is it still kosher to do so? Or is everything "proper" supposed to be done with style sheets now? Thanks, Currently my website uses frames and no css. I need to update it, but I'm in a huge time crunch!!! (And don't know css and only know very very basic HTML) I need my website to be functional (not in limbo) by next weekend, so it either has to stay how it is now (frames & older HTML) or be totally done by then. Is there anywhere that I can get help to do this automatically instead of waiting until later when I have way more time to learn it myself (that changes your code easily/automatically), or super awesome people who love HTML and will do it for me? It's a pretty simple/basic website and I would be SO so SO appreciative. Hi, I'm writing a terms and conditions page in plain XHTML where we have lots of text along the lines of this: 1 Lorem ipsum intro to 1 1.1 More blurb goes in here 1.2 and a whole bunch of other stuff you can't do 2 La-di-dah here's section two 2.1 this that and the other I'd like to use nested ordered lists (OL tags), but we are quite rigid about the numbering in that the sub-sections must be x.x. This is so we can refer to them without any ambiguity. Getting the layout and positioning is no problem, but I don't see how to write this with OL tags. I tried using VALUE="2.1" in the LIs but this doesn't work. I'm assuming a list is the proper thing to use in this case, but I'm open to other ideas (DL maybe???). Hello, I just recently started "cutting up" a website layout in Photoshop and coding it in Dreamweaver. Though I am aware that CSS would be best for doing this, I am still choosing to use a table for the layout. My question is, what is the proper way of hand coding a table? Mind you, this is a fairly complex table with many rows and columns and cells of all kinds of sizes. I used Photoshop to export the code and then went in and changed what I needed to. Photoshop uses spacer gif's in their table code. I'd like to try hand coding the table so that I don't have to use spacer gif's and then I'll be able to edit the table later on, more easily (to change the bottom layout, but keep top navigation on all pages.) Right now, with the spacer gif's I can't add any cells without the whole layout falling apart. I'm just looking for good code for building complex tables (coding by hand). Thanks! Here's a link to the site I'm working on: http://www.matthewpavkov.com/dtim/index.html I have a div which contains a line of text as a url. When clicked, a div is displayed directly below, and the content is different depending on the user. Currently, the div opens and two left hand sides align. I would like to cause the right hand sides to align instead, with the divs growing to the left if the text is larger. Is this possible? hey guys im getting a weird b0rder ar0und my <div>, i d0nt kn0w what it is..can anyb0dy help me please? ive been l00king at div pr0perties but i havent been able t0 eliminate that b0rder - im n0t even sure its fr0m the div but i'd think it is. the b0rder im talking ab0ut is the black 0ne. c0me t0 think 0f it.. its n0t a b0rder - the black secti0n is a <th> and the black is its backgr0und, but the <div> inside the <th> simply d0esnt extend in it t0 100% :/ http://www.hotlinkfiles.com/files/57...cument_7_.html Hi there.

I am working with a programme that uses three templates to structure the web site, feeds articles, author page and site map on a daily basis to my web site. I attempted to insert Adsense ad units to templates and unfortunately everything is out of line now. this can be viewed at http://daviddutch.com/currency/articles/index.html Question is how do I bring everything else back in line please as when I look at coding there is no clear place to put the adsense HTML code to get things lined up correctly. Hope someone can offer wisdom and guidance. cheers Hi Guys Here is some css I use for my footer, I want it to be centered but only span 98% of the distance, however when I change the width to 98% it only cuts off the 2% from the right hand side and justifies the footer to the left. Any Help? Thanks Code: #footer{ clear: left; width: 100%; background: white; color: black; text-align: center; padding: 2px 0; } It's not that huge of a deal because its only an under construction page... but I'd like to know how to get this page looking the same in both IE and Firefox. The only real issues with IE right now is that the image isn't centered and the yellow tape bg is 1px off from where it should be... thanks for any help! http://www.pzfantasyfootball.com Code: <html> <head> <title>PZ Fantasy Football » Under Construction</title> <style type="text/css"> * {margin: 0; padding:0;} p {margin-top: 15px;} h2 {font-size: 25px; border-bottom: 1px solid #fff; margin-bottom: 10px;} body { background-image: url(images/Metal_Texture-PhotoshopTower.jpg); background-color: #000; color: #fff; font-family: calibri, arial, verdana; } a, a:visited, a:active {color: #09f;} a:hover {color: #06c;} #wrap { width: 800px; margin: 0 auto; } .yellowtape { position: absolute; bottom: 0; width: 100%; height: 524px; background-image: url(images/yellowtapebg.gif); background-repeat: repeat-x; } .construction { position: absolute; bottom:0; background-image: url(images/pzfantasyfootballunderconstruction.jpg); width: 800px; height: 600px; } .text { position: relative; left: 300px; top: 225px; width: 500px; font-size: 18px; text-align: left; } </style> </head> <body> <div class="yellowtape"></div> <div id="wrap"> <div class="construction"> <div class="text"><h2>11/1/07 » Site Under Construction Again</h2>Well once again we enter construction mode.
