HTML - Two Columns Not Lining Up Inside Div
Hi everyone. I just joined up in hopes that someone here can help me figure something out that's been driving me nuts for days. I am trying to create some content boxes for the sidebar of my blog. I've managed to create the actual boxes, but then I want to make a new one with two columns to put link badges in. Below is the code I have so far....
<style type="text/css"> <!-- .container_sidebar_about { width:225px; height:64px; background-image:url(http://dougcloud.net/show/headlinklove.png); } .container_sidebar { width:203px; background:#FEF6D2; font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; border-width: 0px 1px 1px 1px; border-spacing: 0px; border-style: none solid solid solid; border-color: #4F3314; padding:10px; margin:0 0 20px 0; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;color: #4F3314; font-size:11px; } a:link {font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;color: #4F3314;} a:visited {font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;color: #ba742a;} --> </style> <div class="container_sidebar_about"></div> <div class="container_sidebar"> <div style="width:100px;float:left;text-align:center;">I have always had the uncanny knack of visualizing how something should look and in 1998, after purchasing my first computer, I started making small graphic things for friends - web buttons, guest book designs, etc.</div> <div style="width:100px;float:right;text-align:center;">I have always had the uncanny knack of visualizing how something should look and in 1998, after purchasing my first computer, I started making small graphic things for friends - web buttons, guest book designs, etc.</div> </div> With this code the text displays in two columns, but it does not appear to be inside the main div with the background color and 1 pixel border.

One more question: If you look at: http://www.studio209.com/stumptown_e...youritems.html The words and the form fields are not lining up (we've tried everything: "align=top, middle, bottom"... etc.) But, here's another site we did a few months ago: http://www.brownprn.com/requestestimate.htm and they line up!! How did we do it?? Help!! Hello, I'm trying to line up some tables unsuccessfully. What I'm trying to do is create a page with tables of 45% width which are staggered. In other words, I'd have one table in the normal upper-left portion, but the next table would begin about 100px below that one vertically, aligned to the right. The third table would be about 100px below the first, the fourth about 100px below the second (again right-aligned), and so on - staggerd in a zig-zag pattern. I can't achieve anything close to my desired effect. In fact, one of my tables isn't even aligning to the right side of the page! I have overlap, and just many problems. I'd appreciate any help. Hi I am new here. I play an online game that involves layouts. I had someone make me a layout (here is link: <a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v72/raindrop/Layouts/acreswestlayoutcopy.jpg" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v72/rain...tlayoutcopy.jpg</a>) for the site. In this the blue text box above the horse, when you go to write, you can put text in it. How is that possible. I am trying to make my own, so how do you line it up, that when you type, it goes into that box? Please let me know. Thanks! -AW- I obviously need some help with my <tr> and <td>'s. On my basic web page I have a top header, left side column and right side content, but I have the rows or tables wrong. The right side content isn't all the way to the top header, as you can see from my attached image, and code below. Help. thanks.

This page is not lining up correctly, as you can see from the attached image. All the text content should be to the right of the (left) red column and the red column is supposed to be the width of the gray bar above it. (The header is a separate piece of this page) Can you help me get the left red column to the correct width and all the text content to the right of the red column? thanks.

I tried CSS and the only way I found was to align them left. This defeats the whole purpose. Any idea? Also, when I set img {display: inline; } it works, but I'm using that to fix another problem in which it needs to be set to block.

Anyone understand why this is? I'm just using a standard font family (arial, helvetica, sans-serif) - why would they appear different between Macs/PCs? Am I setting this up incorrectly in css? CSS: Code: .homeBtn { padding: 0px 12px 0px 0px; } .theSystemBtn { padding: 0px 12px 0px 0px; } .workoutsBtn { padding: 0px 11px 0px 0px; } The html is just an unordered list as you can see from the source. I like the look of the heavier weighted text if I can keep it like that. I would really appreciate any kind of knowledge or assistance in the issue of correctly matching text to background images in a nav bar. I'm trying to build a website in frames and am currently just putting together some test stuff for it. I'm trying to build a background, but when I place the separate parts of the overal image, there is spacing between the frames in places I don't want it; for example, the image in the left frame is significantly below the top frame, and there is a gap between it and the center frame. How can I fix this? I have frameborders set to 0, 0 framespacing, 0 margin width and height, and no borders present. Any help would be appreciated. There are 2 images below, to help explain what I mean. The first is how the top and left frames look, and the second is how the overall thing should appear. Hi, I was trying to develop a page in HTML/CSS but having some difficulties. I have created many pages before but this one is giving me a hard time. What I have done differently this time it, i have used Positioning tags. The problem i am having is I can not set any two divs or images side by side. If i set 1 image and 1 div side by side they are being placed on top of each other. But, i may be going crazy here, i was able to place the top two divs side by side (logo and privacy_protected). Can any one please tell me what i am doing wrong or what i should do? Here is the code that i am using: Code: <body> <div id="wrapper"> <div id="bodypic"> <div id="logo"><a href="index.html"><img src="images/transparent.png" width="319" height="100" border="0" /></a></div><!--logo --> <div id="privacy_protected"></div><!--privacy_protected --> <img src="images/transparent.png" height="29" width="1020"/> <div id="728block"> <img src="images/transparent.png" height="89" width="18" style="float:left"/> <div id="728adunit"><img src="images/728x90.jpg" width="728" height="90" /></div><!--728adunit --> <a href="#"><img src="images/transparent.png" height="89" width="23" style="float:left"/></a> <a href="#"><img src="images/transparent.png" height="45" width="219" style="float:left"/></a> <a href="#"><img src="images/transparent.png" height="43" width="202" style="float:left"/></a></div><!--728adblock --> </div><!--bodypic --> </div><!--wrapper --> </body> And the CSS Code: #wrapper { height: 1174px; width: 1024px; margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; } #bodypic { background-image: url(images/wrapper.jpg); float: left; height: 1174px; width: 1024px; } body { background:#FFF; font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align:justify; font-size:14px; } a:link { color: #06F; text-decoration: none; } a:visited { text-decoration: none; color: #06F; } #logo { background-image: url(images/Editorial_v3-1_01.gif); float: left; height: 103px; width: 498px; } #privacy_protected { background-image: url(images/Editorial_v3-1_02.jpg); float: left; height: 103px; width: 526px; } #728block { float: left; height: 91px; width: 1024px; } #728adunit { float: left; height: 90px; width: 728px; } a:hover { text-decoration: underline; color: #06F; } a:active { text-decoration: none; } Please help! I've been playing about with columns, and it really bugs me when I cant get to do it correctly, I need to know how to make a three column page like this one- http://watchseries.eu/ I know there is a lot of float involved, and no matter how much I try, I cannot get the hang of it. I've also read the column tutorial on this forum with no help. How hard can it be? I already posted a similair item like this on a dutch forum (for those who do not know: I am dutch) but that ended in no result. Imagine yourself the painting from I think it was Barnett "Who is afraid of red, yellow and blue. Or better... take the French flag ( http://www.e-s-e-a.com/FRENCH%20FLAG.png ) Now could you or anyone else write me the script that would give me three columns? The left column 15% The right column 15% The middle column 70% I read that giving the columns a width in percentages was better because of screensizes. No header. No footer. Just 3 columns. It has to be like the French flag all over your screen. Well you don't have to give the columns exactly the same colors but it would be nice. I feel rather stupid asking this question, because I'm certain it's so simple to fix... Please see this HTML eBay template http://www.bluelagoonproducts.com/template-noncss.html As you can see there are 2 main colums: A - The menu (Store catagories) on the left B - Content (Description) on the right. I need the menu on the left to stay at the top, rather than in the middle. When column B has more content or paragraphs than column A, Column B stays in the middle relative to the page. Hope someone can help? Hi, Basically I was wondering how I can give a page "columns" I want to set it up with the normal heading I'm using, then do something like this: (column 1) ______ | ______ (column 2) _______________ | ________ ... Sign Up ________ | _______ Member Name: _ [box] ___________________________ Password: _ [box] I am adding an event to a web page I have inherited from someone else. I don't have access to the CSS styles in the webpage, so I have to use existing styles. The page is supposed to line up in two columns, and used to do that before my updates today, but for some reason now is all in one long column. I could use another set of eyes, as I can't seem to see the reason it is having problems. Can you help me? I need to get an answer this morning or I will have to change the page back so that it looks correctly even if it has old information. |
