HTML - Help On Displaying Only A Portion Of Overflow
Okay a simplified version of my problem is this:
I have a small table of 2x2, with the right two cells merged. I have content in the right cell in the form of text. The cell has the following formatting: overflow: hidden; and the text has the following formatting: position: relative; left: -91px; vertical-align: top; text-align: justify; The left cells are 182px wide, so the text looks like it is centered with respect to the entire table, with the overflow into the left two cells being cut off. The problem now is, I only want the text covered by the top left cell to be cut, and I want the text in the bottom left cell to still be visible. I tried using the 'clip:' property, but you cannot specify a non-rectangular area so it's of no help to me. There is an image in the top left cell, and nothing in the bottom left cell, so the other way to fix my problem would be to find some way of having the overflow appear BEHIND the other elements, so that the image would cover the text, and the empty cell would not. Similar TutorialsIs it possible to draw only a certain portion of an image using img? I want to take this radar and only have it draw a rectangle around where I live instead of the whole image. Is there a way to specify what coordinates to draw using img? It seems, at least on my computer, that when I choose the blog page on my "site in progress"... that the page sort of zooms in. I thought at first it was because the page used a scrollbar and the other page didn't, but then I created another page with a scrollbar, separate from the blog, and it did NOT do the zoom effect. You can see the site in question he http://www.pzfantasyfootball.com As you can see, most noticeably in the navigation, the font looks fine, not blurry, not too big, just right. When you click on the blog page, the font becomes blurred and slightly bigger. I'm running the latest Firefox on a 1440x900 monitor. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Hello! Just a quick question really... Have you ever visited a website, clicked a link within the site, and noticed after doing so that only a portion of the page has changed? The diagram attached will hopefully help explain I am trying to achieve. i basically want a page consisting of two columns. The left column (nav) will be my navigation panel and contain links that when clicked by the user, the content beside it in the 'right' column (content) changes. Please can anyone suggest how i can achieve this? I have experimented with frames and floating frames (iframes) and it does work, yet I understand that frames are not supported by all browsers? this worries me! Can this be achieved through css? Are there any of you that know of any tutorials that can help me? Please, any help will be much appreciated! Is there a way to change the way IE handles transparent portions of an element - like a 200x200 pixel div with borders but no background? Firefox will consider "onmouseover" for the entire div, but IE seems only to react to the thin border. So, I can make a simple drag-and-drop div in Firefox, but in IE you have to pick the 1 pixel border to drag it around :-( Putting a transparent image in the div does not help, since this will make the browser itself grab that image, ignoring my script. How can you make the div become selectable in IE too? All the best Robert Hello, I have one problem with overflow in IE, the problem results from having height of my div determined in % I guess. If I change it to fixed size in px I have no problems Here is the code : Code: <style type="text/css"> ... div.text { font-size: relative; width:85%; height:57%; overflow-y:scroll; } ... </style> <div class="text"> .... </div> I need the size of this div to be set in % and overflow to work, can I do that in any way ? (this woks nice in firefox, however not in IE6) Thank you!! So I have this table, and I'm trying to get the overflow to work, but it's not working. Everytime I put a bunch of words it just streches and goes out of the specific height I want it to be at. Can someone help me? Make it where it overflows? Ppllleeassee. Here's my code. <table id="maintable"> <tr> <td colspan="2" width="303px" height="155px" class="words" overflow="auto"> 1111 </td> <td colspan="1" width="150px" height="155px" class="words"> 555 </td> <td colspan="1" rowspan="2" width="150px" height="205px" class="words"> 888 </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="1" rowspan="4" width="150px" height="300px" class="words"> 222 </td> <td colspan="1" rowspan="2" width="150px" height="150px" class="words"> 333 </td> <td colspan="1" rowspan="2" width="150px" height="150px" class="words"> 666 </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="1" rowspan="2" width="150px" height="125px" class="words"> 9999 </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" rowspan="4" width="300px" height="150px" class="words"> 4444 </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="1" width="150px" height="125px" class="words"> 777 </td> </tr> </table> <style type="text/css"> table#maintable { background-color:#222222; border: 2px solid #FF0099; } table#maintable td { padding: 5px; border: 1px solid #FF0099; vertical-align: top; text-align: left; } .words { color: #FFFFFF; } </style> Hi, i want to add a horizontal overflow to the div element that holds the UL. each LI is displayed along side each other using Float:left. however, when they reach the end of the page it starts a new line. how can i get it so it doesnt start a newline, but carrys on in a line and can be scroll-able? thankyou Code: bodywrapper { width:930px; margin:auto; margin-top:20px; background:url(../images/layout/main_body_bg.jpg) repeat; } /*Image Gallery*/ #gallery ul { margin-left:-30px; margin-bottom:0; margin-top:-10px; } #gallery ul li { display:block; float:left; height:100px; width:100px; padding-top:10px; padding-right:10px; } .thumbnails { outline:none; border:none; } .thumbnails_link { outline:none; } I'm making a game and this is my current code: <html> <head> <title></title> <style type="text/css"> </style> <form> <input type="button" value="abc" onclick="move()"> </form> <img name="img1"> <!--http://bluebutton.info/images/home-button.gif--> <script type="text/javascript"> function c() { document.images['img1'].src = "http://bluebutton.info/images/home-buton"> document.images['img1'].width = 150 document.images['img1'].height = 150 document.images['img1'].style.position ="absolute" } function move() { var obj='img1'; move('img1',-0.5,0); } </script> </head> <body> <body onload="c()"> <body onkeypress="move()" <body </body> </html> It tells me I have a stack overflow at line 23 which is: move('img1',-0.5,0); Any suggestions of how to fix this or just clean up the code? Hi Everyone, I have a div element on a page that has as a child a large node (content is "Ajax'd" into this child). The containing DIV has overflow : auto so that the user can scroll up and down the large content. The function of the containing DIV is simply to provide scrollability and the dimensions of that DIV shouldn't affect the dimensions of it's content. When I use an IFRAME to provide the scrollability, resizing the IFRAME is fine. The desired effect is to make this look like an IFRAME in effect, it is in effect supposed to look like a desktop app with a multiple document type pane. This is a crap idea I know, but it's outwith our hands. So we can't radically change the way that the produt looks at the moment. When I use the DIV, then resizing this must cause the browser to recalculate all of the childrens widths which takes ages. Does anyone have any suggestions apart from using an IFRAME for this ? What I want is to be able to resize the containing element without recalculating the widths of all its children. The document div with the scroll bars is held inside a Dojo ContentPane widget with resizable borders hence the noticeable redraw lag when the user changes the size of something. many thanks, Woody. I have a small problem with my site that I am having trouble fixing. When I add a
Quote: overflow: auto; , it goes under the nav box to the left, and adds a scroll bar.

Thanks for any help Hello, I wan't to make a div filled with images in one single line, overflowing out of the visible content-part. I wan't to be able to move it left to right and back using jQuery (so that part should be covered). A sprite is not an option because of the images being links (Lightbox and stuff). CSS "overflow:hidden" and "display:in-line;" don't seem to work. Please help! A little out of my depth here, and my site is based on a DW template. I have a photo section with thumbnails, that is expanding. I have gone from 10 rows to 30, and in the process broken something. I have compared the code from my original 10 rows to the 30 and cannot find anything that would cause the issue, so am hoping for some help. http://www.uniquefinishing.co.uk/photopages/photos.html On the top horizontal menu, click on "Videos", then "photos". See the table has dropped? This is the only consistent replication of the issue I can find. If you now keep clicking on the same "photos" link on the top menu, it randomly drops and fixes itself occasionally. This happens randomly from any page to the "photos" page. Where should I be looking? When entering content into my table I've found that if I enter so much that the page needs to be extended, it will mis-align everything on the page, even the background image referenced in the <body> tag. It happens in both Firefox and IE8. It only pushes the content a few pixels to the left. If I remove content so the page doesn't have to be extended, everything is aligned correctly. Is there any reason this might be happening? The correct alignment The messed up allignment *update: I don't know what I did but the problem was fixed in IE8 but not firefox, also I have tried the "html { min-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 1px; }" trick along the one specific to firefox and neither worked. It laggs. Meaning it isnt fluent. The site is working fine with all browsers except in IE8 ? In IE I only get a fluent scroll experience when I place the cursor ON TOP of the scroll bar.. now I know this cant be good, so tell me, do I need to add code for IE to recognize my scroll wishes? Have a look at the site here. thank you o btw, for the ones who have helped me in the past have a looksy here! Im growing in knowlegde thanks to you, very much appreciated, feel free to review it and help me improve my coding (because I know it sucks) Hey All, I sliced a PNG and ended up with a table that overflows and screws up the whole page. Here's what it's supposed to look like: http://www.uark.edu/ua/oep/web2/index.php And here it is stretched out by the content area: http://www.uark.edu/ua/oep/web2/headlines.php?so=da Help? Thanks! J Darnielle I made this website using HTML in frames. I opted not to use a style sheet because at the time it seemed to be easier. www.arriagalawoffice.com The image map works beautifully on practically every browser except IE (I use Firefox) and I can't figure out what's wrong. It can't be the code because it works in other browsers, any suggestions? Also, I used the <div> tag to create the content with the white background within the frame. Scrolling, size, and alignment works well in Firefox but gets messed up in IE. HELP! Hello everyone! I've got a pretty strange problem. I have a div with overflow: hidden and it works fine in all the browsers except Safari. In Safari, if you have a Macbook, you can scroll the contain of the div using two fingers. However, there is no problem like this on the iTunes site. Here is my code: HTML Code: <div style="width: 480px; height: 320px; overflow: hidden; position: relative"> <img src="http://new.yogamen.net/uploads/games/crazy/1.png" style="float: left" /> <img src="http://new.yogamen.net/uploads/games/crazy/2.png" style="float: left" /> <img src="http://new.yogamen.net/uploads/games/crazy/3.png" style="float: left" /> <img src="http://new.yogamen.net/uploads/games/crazy/4.png" style="float: left" /> </div> So I just decided to redesign my website, and I learned the wonders of "position: absolute" and the left, right, top, and bottom CSS tags. But of course, with that comes some issues (and other things, like me having to think about people with different browsers/resolution settings than me). Some of my problems are as follows (captions of the problem are under the images) When the text overflows here, it just leaves the <div> tag... well... multiple <div> tags. This one takes the body <div> with it.. but doesn't let the bottom page image extend down. Top filler image doesn't extend all the way, body <div> doesn't connect properly to fade images. So as you can see, my big problem is the overflow, which really needs to be fixed. Don't know what the problem is with Opera there, but it's something else that should be checked out. So anyway, here's my code for the website. If you have any ideas for how to improve it/make it work better, then I'm happy with that. Don't worry about validation right now, though. I'm saving that for later.

So I've got a 'main content' div that is set to Overflow:Auto with css, so it provides a scroller inside the not-very-tall page, allowing me to accommodate a reasonable amount of text without forcing the vertical height to grow. However, the content div is in the middle of the page and the content inside the div makes use of code fragment anchors (y'know, 'href="#thisHeading"' type links). They work, but the browser puts the jumped-to text at the top of the viewport, NOT at the top of the scrolling div, so the correct bit of text is hidden above the level of the scroller's top edge. Is there a way around this? TIA |
