HTML - Ie Horizontal Scrolling Problem

http://knexinnovation.net/store/

I thought that if your background is wider than the window, it won't create a scrollbar to show the full image. Or is this not the case?


Currently it has a horizontal scroll bar for 1024px users. The footer image is actually the
body { } background, aligned to the bottom center.

Evening one and all,

I'm having a little problem. I've created a webpage that's 1280 pixels wide using HTML tables to structure my layout.

I've tried viewing my page on a lower screen resolution - for example 800x600 but the page doesn't hold it's structure and allow me to view the page properly by placing a horizontal scroll bar at the bottom of the screen.

Instead the browser squashes all the data to fit within the 800 pixel width of the screen.

Is there some code I can insert in the page that commands the browser to display a scroll bar instead of squashing all the data to fit the 800 pixel width?

I'm testing at the moment in Firefox 3.6.15 on Mac OSX 10.6.3.

Thanks.

I've seen on some sites that images show up within a block and they scroll left and right when user clicks a button. And many times, these are not flash files, but html, or xhtml or dhtml or asp or php or some other extensions.

I am trying to create a database of images all with labels (multiple), so that I can pull all images of a label to a window and have them scroll right and left with buttons.

does anyone here know how this may be done?
Thanks

Hello. First time here asking for help. Hope there's a solution!

The site in question is http://www.jason-bradbury.com/Design.html. It's my first attempt at web design and I'm stumped.

The goal is to present my art portfolio in a horizontal scrolling layout with a fixed header and footer. Ideally it would look identical across the many browser platforms.

On a Windows laptop, my page looks and functions as it should in the latest browser versions of Safari, Google Chrome and Firefox as long as there aren't a stack of toolbars enabled. If toolbars are present (mostly in Firefox), the footer gets truncated and the page will not vertical scroll to allow it to be seen.

So my first problem is getting the vertical scrolling (for the entire page including header and footer) to appear only when necessary in that situation.

On my Mac Pro (I have not been able to test a Macbook yet) the page appears normal across the board with Safari and Firefox (have not tested Chrome or IE)

The second problem is that in all versions of IE (and older versions of Firefox prior to 4.0) the page is displayed incorrectly.

In IE, the header is missing, the left margin is way off and a vertical scrollbar is present for the body (again, if the vertical scrolling was for the entire page it wouldn't be so bad). As for the horizontal scrolling, it is very sluggish in IE.

Firefox only has the vertical scrollbar in the body problem and since the header is shown in that browser, the body overlaps it when scrolled up.

The page was originally designed in iWeb and then I had to tweak the code in Dreamweaver to get the fixed header and footer.

Hope someone can help me out here! Cheers, Jason.

Hi, I'm making a website for my clan and I was hoping that someone here could help me with a problem. The test site is: http://deltagaming.org/matt/testweb/

As you can see the bottom seems to cut out with no scroll bars to help out. I tried adding an overflow command to the css styles sheet but no dice. I also added it to the template file too and still nothing. I couldn't post the main index here because its too big but my style sheet fit + you can view it through my website using a page source.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi!

I am having problems with horizontal scroll-bar. The thing is horizontal scroll-bar appears in local view. But when I put it into web only horizontal scroll-bar disappears.
I'm using swffit also, and tried lots of things to solve this but coulnd't manage to solve this weird problem.

Anyone has an idea?
Thanks in advance.

site link is www.firinciorhan.com.tr

i have spent about 45min reading through alot of Iframe related threads but none of them have helped my problem.

I have a website with iframes, on my index page i am trying to put an iframe into the content box so when you click the links up top it will load them without refreshing the whole page.

So thats fine i put in my iframe code like this

<iframe name="homeframe" width="780" height="250" border="0" frameborder="0" marginheight="0" padding="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="auto"src="homeframe.html">
</iframe>

And on the html document im trying to put into it "homeframe.html" it open up but it scrolls horizontally not vertically and all the writing goes onto 1 line horizontally. The width of my content box is 780px so i made the table in the homeframe.html document 780 so it wouldnt have the bar but it does.

im stumped. thanks in advance.

The following problem seems to occur in both IE and Firefox (Chrome seems ok). Note the following simple code:

HTML Code:

<html>
  <head></head>
  <body>
    <div dir="RTL" align="center">
      <table width="800" height="100" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
        <tr height="100">
          <td width="400" height="100" bgcolor="yellow">
          <td width="400" height="100" bgcolor="red">
        </tr>
      </table>
    </div>
  </body>
</html>

When the window is manually made thinner, a horizontal scrollbar DOES appear but on the wrong side, which makes some of the content unreachable. On Firefox sometimes there is no horizontal scrollbar at all.

HELP?

Hello Folks,

I'm currently redesigning my site and am having a problem with the last bit!

I know that CSS is the method of choice now for web design but I need to integrate my site with a commercial shopping cart called Actinic. This uses tables and is virtually impossible to rewrite using CSS. It makes for a seamless integration if I stick with tables for my part of the site, and less headaches trying to make the two sites look the same.

I want to move some of the links away from the left hand column on the page and put them into a horizontal bar at the bottom.

I've created a tile which repeats, but I want it separated a bit from the left hand column.

Here's a url so you can see what I'm on about. http://www.magicalwonders.com/NewLook/Index.html

You will see that the blue bar created by my tile is stuck to the side of the left hand column. My problem arises in trying to move this bar to the right of the left hand column, so that there is a gap between the two.

I was hoping to avoid using a full size graphic as I want to keep the file size to a minimum. I've tried Cell Spacing & Padding which doesn't have any effect, so I've tried putting the background tile in between Div tags and specifying a width using the following code:-

<td align="center" ><Div width=300px id="footerbackground">Some links go Here</Div></td>

This hasn't worked though and the tile fills up the entire width of the cell that the Div is in.

I would be grateful if anybody can offer any advice.

Many thanks,

Myles

Last week I decided to build my first site to get a better idea of how it is done. I found the code for a scrolling list in an old design I had from years ago. I cut the code out and placed it into a new template I am editing. It'll work, but there's two problems. I've spent about 6 hours searching for solutions or whole new code to use but it seems like there isn't much use for a scrolling list any more.

Problem One:

There doesn't seem to be any way to "execute" the selection on the list. I've placed the code below. I can scroll down the list - click on, say, Game 2, but it doesn't link anywhere. How would I either add a button that says "Go" and sends the user to the desired game url or have them simply click the title and link there?

Problem Two:

For some reason it displays completely differently in Firefox, Safari and IE. Not just a subtle difference:

http://www.myimgs.net/images/zgds.jpg (Firefox)

http://www.myimgs.net/images/aymd.jpg (IE)

http://www.myimgs.net/images/dcqk.jpg (Safari)

How would I make it display a little more uniformly across all browsers? I tried changing the values below but I don't see any difference at all. I'd rather it looked like the Safari version.

---

<td valign="top" width="300" align="right">

<table width="300" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

<tr>

<td valign="top" rowspan="2"><form>

<table width="300" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

<tr>

<td>&nbsp;&nbsp;<select name="highlight" multiple class="inputs3">

<option><game.html="#">Game 1</a></option>
<option><game.html="#">Game 2</a></option>
<option><game.html="#">Game 3</a></option>
</select></td>

</tr>

</table>

</form></td>

</tr>

</table>

</td>

</tr>

</table>

</td>

<td width="1" height="80%" bgcolor="#CBCBCB"><img src="images/dot.gif" width="1" height="1" alt="" border="0"></td>

</tr>

Hi all, I'd really appreciate some help on this one.

I have a program which outputs very long strings of text to a HTML page. At the moment the text stays on one line resulting in an annoying horizontal scrollbar.

How do I get the page to automatically format the text so that it all fits within a standard width, and so there's no horizontal scrollbar?

Regards,

Ruth

So, I would like to make a one-line textfield that will automatically scroll when too much text is added.

So, for example, if I have a field that has room for 20 characters, and someone enters 10 characters, it looks as expected.

However, if someone enters 30 characters, only characters 10-30 would be visible.

Is this possible?

Im really not sure if the title of this thread is right.

Anyway, i dont know too much about HTML coding, but id like help with something on my .... MySpace haha

Alright, so this is my myspace at the moment.
www.myspace.com/cj_x3

As you can see, i have links on the sides, done by the following code example;
Quote:
<div style="width: 78px; height: 22px; position: absolute; bottom:5px;right:15px; background-color: transparent; border-width:0px;border-style:solid;border-color: transparent; font-family: verdana;">
<a href="LINK" style="color: dd4444; font-size: 9px; position: absolute; right: 0px; top: 0px">EXAMPLE LINK TEXT</a>
</div>
When you scroll down, the links on the sides scroll off the top. I dont like this...

What i want to happen, is for them to be fixed, like the background, so when you scroll down, the links around the sides dont move.

Thanks for the help in advance

my page (http://www.zerofivezero.net/the_project102.html) is scrolling as if there's content down the page, but there isn't...I can't figure it out.

I'm using the code below to hide the content and have it swapped when selecting an item from the nav.

Code:

.hidden {
	position:absolute; 
	z-index:2; 
	visibility:hidden;

Code:

<div id="section3_region" class="hidden"><div class="news"><fieldset>
        <legend><img src="images/forum_leg.jpg" width="120" height="28" border="0" alt=""/></legend>
        <br /><br />
        <div class="img"><img src="images/news_thumb1.jpg" width="80" height="75" border="1" alt=""/></div>
        This is the news section<br />
		Yep, this is where the news will be.  This will be the short blurb about the story.
	    <div class="img"><img src="images/news_thumb2.jpg" width="80" height="75" border="1" alt=""/></div>
