HTML - On Browser Re-size Ie Screws Up
Hi Guys,
When the site is loaded in Internet Explorer when the window is not maximised upon maximising the window certain elements are no longer in the correct place, its like they stay where they loaded. I can only think that it would have something to do with the CSS Background Positioning on some div's. Any incite to what might be wrong would be appreciated. Cheers -Matt Similar TutorialsSimilar to how most pop-up windows are a fixed size, I was curious as to how I could fix the size of a browsing window (particularly the width) of a page. Vertical scrolling isn't as important, but I would like my index page as well as the pages within the Iframe in the index page to remain a certain width so viewers would only have to scroll vertically to view the entire content of the html document. I have tried "stealing" the coding used in pop-up windows, trying it in both the head and body of the code but to no avail. I have searched for countless hours on the 'net looking for a tutorial that gives the code for this and have had zero luck. (I know it must be possible.) Any and all help/input is greatly appreciated! Thanks so much in advance, Dereck I am in the process of re-designing my website. old site www.ghilliesuitsource.com new site still a work in progress www.ghilliesuitsource.com/gss_test I am struggling with 2 things on my new site. 1) The parallelogram (tilted rectangle) images in the background are seperated by paragraph breaks so that I can alternate between left and right aligned. While all of the forground "stuff" text and product images are AP DIV elements so they hold their spacing. Page looks like I intend it to in IE but netscape/firefox appear to use a different paragraph break line size causing the forground "stuff" to appear lower and lower with respect to the parallelograms, and it gets worse the further down the page you go. 2) It appears as though IE will not change text size inside an AP DIV element when you go to "view-Text Size" This is good because I am using a graphic to act as a border around text. Netscape and Firefox do change font sizes in AP DIV elements so when you select a larger fontsize the text "spills" out of the border. If you can help me out with either of these problems I would certainly appreciate it. So I know if you use "%" to define your height and width with tables that it allows you the table to resize based upon a users browser size. My question is how can you do this with images? I tried setting my height and width for my image using "%" but then my image just becomes overly stretched. My professor said that I should create a table and than place the image within the table, and then set the table height and width using "%". The code below is what I tried. It didn't work though. Any ideas on how to do this? Code: <body>
<table width="100%" height="100%" border="0">
<tr>
<td height="100%" width="100%"><p align="center"><img src="images/Banner.png" align="center" class="source-image" /></p></td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
Thank you for your help! Hi: This is probably a silly trivial question but I can't seem to find the answer in my books ('Beginning Web Programming with HTML,XHTML. and CSS' by Jon Duckett, and 'Javascript - The Definitive Guide (5th Edition) by David Flanagan): How do I ensure that my client's browser window is set to 'Full Screen' when loading is complete ?? (btw, my current page looks confusing if the client's browser window is much less than full size ) I hope there is something llike: onload window.size := 'fullscreen' )) Thanks for any hints - and for any pointers in my books above where I can read up properly on this) -Mel Smith hello, I'm an HTML novice who designed/maintains my own site without any expertise at all. One problem I can't seem to figure out: When the browser window is sized more narrowly than the content on the page, the table sections get shoved down underneath one another. Most sites I see don't do that -- when the browser window narrows, the site content stays in place. Any insight about what my error is? You can check out the problem at www.adamgwon.com. Thanks much. Hi there, I have put a youtube video source in dreamweaver, and was wondering if anyone could tell me how i make it so the browser window the video is in clings to the video, i.e the frame is the exact size of the video. Also, however this is done, would it be the same code with images? Thanks in advance, Rob Here is the code <body> <td><a href="<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/NIktYSst2mw"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/NIktYSst2mw" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object> </body> </html> Hey guys, I want a kind of horizontal border down the side of my comment div, and padding that pushes it away from it. So far, it's worked perfectly in Firefox and Opera, but it goes all haywire in IE. I honestly don't even know what's going on. Here's an example page with the comments: http://automata.firephoenixnet.com/item/85 It looks okay in Firefox, but it looks all weird in IE. Can someone tell me what's causing this? I have made a box mostly from 3 divs a top middle and bottom, when I add any h1 element makes a gap between the top and the middle killing the box effect in FireFox. I have tried everything with this but now give up, does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this. I have added a another div called maincontentinner so that the text was easier to adjust but even removing this did not solve it. All I am trying to do is get rid of the tables layout and have hit a brickwall my html HTML Code: <div class="mainboxtop"></div>
<div class="maincontent">
<div class="maincontentinner"><!--All content starts here-->
<h1> More Information</h1>
this is a test
</div><!--All content stops here-->
<div class="mainboxbottom"></div>
</div><!-- /closing of maincontentdiv -->
the CSS Code: .maincontent {
background:#CFCFCF url(../images/contentmain.gif) repeat scroll 0%;
border:0;
width:710px;
}
.maincontentinner {/*added to give padding inside the box and a few other styles*/
padding-left:15px;
padding-right:15px;
font-size:1.2em;
}
.mainboxtop {
background:#CFCFCF url(../images/contenttop.gif) no-repeat scroll 0%;
border:0;
height:26px;
margin:0;
padding:0;
width:710px;
}
.mainboxbottom {
background:#CFCFCF url(../images/contentbottom.gif) no-repeat scroll 0%;
border:0;
height:26px;
width:710px;
}
Here's a test page to see it for real Hi guys, I have a problem with table widths used to arrange content on a website. Why am I not using DIVs? Because it's too time consuming at the moment to convert it over, and my client is not familiar with DIVs and has no time to learn it. So I have to stick to using tables for him to maintain on his own. Here's a quick rundown on my table layout. ----------------------------- |TD1-------------|TD1a****| ------------------ |TD2-------------|********| ------------------ |TD3-------------|********| ------------------ |TD4-------------|********| |Table 2----------|********| ------------------------------ |TD5-------------|********| ------------------------------ That's my attempt to illustrate my layout. I'm using * and - as fillers, the editor removes all the empty spaces... My problem is, TD1 to TD3 and TD5 aligns nicely vertically - they all have the same / correct width. However, TD4 with a table inside is slight shorter in width than it should. About 1 or 2 px. The following shows the screenshots. zoomed in.... I need to get that TD4 with the table inside to have the same width as the others. I have tried removing all BORDER and BORDERCOLOR codes from all the table tags, no use. I tried using both CSS and the table tag WIDTH to control it, still doesn't work. Need suggestions!! Please click here to see my code. It's a little messy... http://www.thienkaiwei.com/index7.html i have 2 frames in my parent frame say 1.htm ie left frame and 2.htm ie right frame now this 1.htm is quite a long frame and has a scrollbar and 2.htm is a short one i dont the scroll bar beside my frame 1 but want it to be for my entire parent window ie i wont to scroll both my left and right frames together how do i do that Hi! I have a page that contains a text area. What I want it to do is to change its size according to the size of the browser window. How can I make it do that? I did it once but just can't seem to remember how I did it. Thanks All: Working to update a previously designed website. Original design uses an <img> tag to create a top banner and another <img> tag to create a side banner. In each case there are mapped coordinates on each banner as links for the subsequent pages. Basic page design is as follows: Code: <table>
<tr>
<td>
<img usemap="Map1">
<map name="Map1">
<area>
<area>
<area>
</map>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<img name="Map2">
<map>
<area>
<area>
<area>
</map>
</td>
<div>
***PAGE CONTENT***
</div>
<tr>
<table>
The challenge is that the [PAGE CONTENT] varries in length througout the site causing some pages to be much longer or shorter than others. This causes some inconsistencey in the relationship between the side banners height and the page content. In other words in some cases the banner is exceptionally longer than the page content and the reader must scroll past significant "dead-space" before being brought to the lowest mapped links in the side banner; or... ...in some cases the side banner is significantly shorter than the page content causing the banner image to appear "poorly-fit" to the page design. I considered altering the 2nd table instance in the above design so that the banner is carried in a <td> tag that is adjacent to the page content and hopefully to allow the tag carrying the image to size relative to the <td> tag carring the content.... Code: <table>
<tr>
<td>
<img usemap="Map1">
<map name="Map1">
<area>
<area>
<area>
</map>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table>
<tr>
<td size="100%">
<img name="Map2">
<map>
<area>
<area>
<area>
</map>
</td>
<td size="100%" >
<table>
***PAGE CONTENT***
</table>
</td>
<tr>
<table>
The problem I've found with this is that as the content size causes the image to "flex", either readablilty or image quality or both are effected, AND the mappings become inconsistent as the image coordinates constantly change. I've considered 2 solutions and am leaning toward one, but thought I'd post this and see if there are better ideas I'm overlooking. One idea was to add additional table rows inside the [PAGE CONTENT] table presumably creating a "defalut" page size that would never be smaller than a standard for the side banner. Problem: larger page sizes are still a problem as are the changing map coordinates My other idea was to return to the original page design listed first above and again settle on a standard side banner "height"... ...any page that was significantly longer than that height would be split to 2 or more pages with a [NEXT>>] button at the bottom of the page navigating to the additional content. Problem: ...possible complications splitting content... Benefit: ...consistent page design that allows a consistent side banner with navigable links... Question for the group: Does this sound reasonable? Are there better alternatives I am overlooking? THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ALL INPUT!! I'd like my div to automatically expand when there is more text but I don't want it smaller than a certain size. Is this possible? Please look at the following site to see what I mean and click on the Writing tab. (The right hand div is what I'd like to fix--you see the text is cut off.) Thank you so much! http://rkgrant.110mb.com/rkghome2.html Is there a way to make buttons larger? I have seen code for it but I am not sure how to use it.. Here is the a partial of the code I am using. Code: <form> <input type="button" value="Reset" onclick="document.applets[0].reset();"> </form> A simple problem when I populate my combo using javascript my combo size changes (Problem is only on) Ie works ok in ff.

I can not understand how it works. Will someone please be able give me the info on how to make the website adapt to the resolution. Thanks for all of your help Im using Dreamweaver and im using a table to layout my page. I have managed to get the table width to resize with the browser window but cant get the height to do it. I have a black bar along the bottom which I want to lock to the bottom of the browser window and resize with it but I just cant do it. I have attached the file below if someone can have a look for me it would be great! Cheers Peeps can html set the size of a page? such as 5" x 7" ? if so, what are the tags? How do you make the website The same size on different resolution? Thanks for all of your help. |
