HTML - Ie6 Spacing Problem
I am a flash developer and our client wants this site to be built using mainly html, I am pretty good with html but not even close to an expert.
I have built a site with Flash vertical and horizontal nav bars above and beside my html content. In Firefox and Safari the site looks perfect, however in IE6 & IE7 there is about a 5 pixel gap between my vertical menu bar and the rest of my content. I have tried everything I know to correct this problem... Any Ideas? They would be greatly appreciated.... Site Link http://www.sacreative.com/education Similar Tutorialshey...hope i can sort this out quickly its only a small problem.. but if you look here ... http://anastaciadreams.com/layouttest/test.html youll notice on Internet explorer theres a space in the 2 parts of the banner area, how do i remove this? Alright, so am finally trying to learn PHP...but I am using <?php include('header.html'); ?> For the header/footer...and it seems as if the problem is via html instead of the php...so I hope this posted in the right area... The code for the header is this (as you can see I sliced in Imageready): Code: <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" bottommargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"> <!-- ImageReady Slices (mkdc4header.psd) --> <table id="HeaderTable" width="920" height="84" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="padding-left:3px; padding-bottom:0px"> <tr> <td rowspan="4"> <img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_01.gif" width="70" height="84" alt=""></td> <td rowspan="2"> <img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_02.gif" width="135" height="43" alt=""></td> <td colspan="7"> <img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_03.gif" width="639" height="32" alt=""></td> <td rowspan="4"> <img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_04.gif" width="76" height="84" alt=""></td> </tr> <tr> <td> <a href="/index.php"><img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_05.gif" alt="" width="87" height="11" border="0"></a></td> <td> <a href="#"><img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_06.gif" alt="" width="74" height="11" border="0"></a></td> <td> <a href="http://www.moizkhan.com/blog"><img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_07.gif" alt="" width="80" height="11" border="0"></a></td> <td> <img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_08.gif" alt="" width="121" height="11" border="0"></td> <td> <a href="#"><img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_09.gif" alt="" width="87" height="11" border="0"></a></td> <td> <a href="#"><img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_10.gif" alt="" width="85" height="11" border="0"></a></td> <td> <img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_11.gif" width="105" height="11" alt=""></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="8"> <img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_12.gif" width="774" height="25" alt=""></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="8"> <img src="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/images/header_13.gif" width="774" height="16" alt=""></td> </tr> </table> The problem only exists in IE7 (haven't checked IE6...but I have checked in Firefox and Opera and they seem fine...so any ideas? Live Demo: http://www.moizkhan.com/mkdc4php/ I have a couple of really small spacing problems. my website is www.betdemon.com you will see from the pic that the spacing 1# on the left hand side is different to the spacing 2# on the right hand side and looks uneven. I want spacing 2# to be the same as 1# - how do i do this? Also you will see there is a gap between banners (3#) but this doesn't appear when viewing in Firefox - How can I make the gap appear? Thanks in advance I've goggled around already and implemented a few solutions, but I can't find anything that will solve it. The page I'm having problems with is he http://www.team1225.com/bio.php Towards the bottom there's a member generated bios section. Each of those green boxes should be touching like the two orange boxes are touching. That's what I'm having problems with. Firefox renders the page correctly but Internet Explorer struggles to. I've spent a couple of hours narrowing down the problem. Sorry if the html output is hard to read, its php generated. Code: <h3 class="bio" id="1bio"><p class="biot">Brian <img class="rank" src="img/prog.png"/></p></h3> <div id="biobr" class="content"> <table border='0' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0' width='100%'> <tr> <td>Pecion sdejf asdf eeeaw dfalkdfjadsa asfaf cEqasdf.</td> <td>Pecion sdejf asdf eeeaw dfalkdfjadsa asfaf cEqasdf.</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Pecion sdejf asdf eeeaw dfalkdfjadsa asfaf cEqasdf.</td> <td>Pecion sdejf asdf eeeaw dfalkdfjadsa asfaf cEqasdf.</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Pecion sdejf asdf eeeaw dfalkdfjadsa asfaf cEqasdf.</td> <td>Pecion sdejf asdf eeeaw dfalkdfjadsa asfaf cEqasdf.</td> </tr> </table> <hr align='center' style='height: 1px; overflow: hidden; line-height:1px; border-bottom: 0px; width: 80%; color: #808080;'/> <p align='center' style='color: #808080;'><i>Comment:</i></p> <p style='color: black; margin: 1em; border: 1px solid #808080;'>Pecion sdejf asdf eeeaw dfalkdfjadsa asfaf cEqasdf.</p> </div> </div> The css for div.content is: Code: div.content { margin: 0px auto; background-color: white; color: black; width: 80%; } The <div id="biobr" class="content"> part is the div field that opens and closes that holds the bio for the user. This javascript action is not related my problem. If I take out all the p, div, and hr tags in that <div id="biobr" class="content"> tag it works and all the green boxes are touching under Internet Explorer. Firefox keeps working like it always does. I've seen problems discussed like this so I think there's a fix. Thanks for any help, Alex Here's a screenshot of what it's doing: I want to eliminate the spacing all together so my Flash element can sit exactly within the div. If there's a better way of positioning the Flash please tell me! Problem fixed Hi Guys, I searched through older posts but I couldnt find the exact answer I was looking for. I am redesigning a few things on my website, the page I am referring to can be seen here - http://www.adamhuckle.com/test2.htm - I would like for the two images and their corresponding text to be next to each other (as they are now) but with some spacing between them. Is it possible to insert colums parhaps? I would like them to be side by side but with some additional spacing in between. Any help is welcome. Thanks in advance! ok, the website is http://brett.unixpod.com (its my personal website) i want the top banner to contact with the navigation bar. the problem is when i remove the padding the text goes out of line, but then the menu contacts with the picture. The css stylesheet is he brett.unixpod.com/css/home.css if you dont understand what i mean by anything, ill try to explain, for heaven sakes, im only 14 years old, im still afraid of the boogie monster!!! I am fine-tuning an existing site and have run into one of those incredibly frustrating mysterious spacing difference problems. I've searched, tweaked, tested, validated and all but sacrificed a few voodoo chickens. The top right page title on these two pages should have the same spacing, that of the first (which all other pages on the site outside the /portfolio subfolder do). For no reason that I can find, pages in the /portfolio folder have extra space at the top. I have tried using cut and paste from working pages, moving the pages between folders, everything, and the problem persists. Both pages validate as XHTML. I'm testing primarily under FF6 but the problem also shows up in IE and Chrome. This page is fine: http://www.nitropress.com/anp_portfolio.php This page has extra spacing over the page title: http://www.nitropress.com/portfolio/anp_pf_bcfile.php What am I overlooking here? AdThanksVance. Hi, i've been trying to solve a problem for the last couple of hours and it is driving me mad, I can't find any help anywhere on the web so thought I would give this a whirl! After placing an image map on my page, I added another image below it, but there is a tiny black vertical gap (black being the bg color) between them. I have tried changing the location of the <br> tag in the script, have tried aligning and pretty much everything else obvious and I have no idea how to make them touch each other. Any help would be appreciated. The page can be seen at: http://jask.freehostingcloud.com/contactjask.html the annoying gap is between the navigation bar and the largest image. This appears to only be a problem in IE (i'm running version 8 on Vista) my code (which you can ofcourse view for your selves but i'll save you the time) is - <body vlink="#ff0000" alink="#ff0000" link="#ff0000" bgcolor="black"> <CENTER> <br> <a href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&business=KF9FFNDA7HD3N&lc=GB&item_name=Jask%20First%20Edition%20Board%20Game&amou nt=19%2e90¤cy_code=GBP&button_subtype=services&shipping=4%2e90&bn=PP%2dBuyNowBF%3abtn_buynowCC _LG%2egif%3aNonHosted" target="-blank"> <img src="http://jask.freehostingcloud.com/jaskgif.gif" width="907" border="0"></a><br> <img src="http://jask.freehostingcloud.com/gobar.JPG" height="55" border="0" useMap=#purple border=0><MAP name=purple border="0"> <area shape="rect" coords="86,7,210,43" href="http://www.jaskgames.com" alt="Jask!" title="Jask!"/> <area shape="rect" coords="257,8,381,44" href="http://jask.freehostingcloud.com/aboutjask.html" alt="All about Jask!" title="All about Jask!" /> <area shape="rect" coords="427,9,586,45" href="http://jask.freehostingcloud.com/contactjask.html" alt="Contact us about Jask!" title="Contact us about Jask!" /> <area shape="rect" coords="631,8,806,44" href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&business=KF9FFNDA7HD3N&lc=GB&item_name=Jask%20First%20Edition%20Board%20Game&amou nt=19%2e90¤cy_code=GBP&button_subtype=services&shipping=4%2e90&bn=PP%2dBuyNowBF%3abtn_buynowCC _LG%2egif%3aNonHosted" alt="Buy your own game!" title="Buy your own game!"/><br> <TABLE background="http://jask.freehostingcloud.com/mainybar.jpg" valign="top" width="907" height="445" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <TR><td width="320" valign="top"></td> <TD valign="top"><br><br> <font face="arial" color="white"><center> <form method="post" action="http://www.emailmeform.com/fid.php?formid=706822" enctype="multipart/form-data" accept-charset="UTF-8"><b><font face="arial" color=black></font> <div style="" id="mainmsg"> </div><br><font face="arial" color=black>Your Name: </font><input type="text" name="FieldData0" size="20"><br><br><font face="arial" color=black><b>Your Email Address: </font><input type="text" name="FieldData1" size="20"><br><br></font><textarea name="FieldData2" cols="44" rows="6"></textarea><br><br><input type="text" name="hida2" value="" maxlength="100" size="3" style="display : none;"><input type="submit" class="btn" value="Send email" name="Submit"> <input type="reset" class="btn" value=" Clear " name="Clear"><br></form> <b><font face="arial" color=black><b>Thankyou for getting in touch, We will respond to you<br> shortly.

I'm doing a web page that I would like to be viewed on 1024 resolutions without a horizontal scrollbar. It will contain images that are exactly 980px wide. The problem is that with ie7, as soon as it contains a div or a table, no matter what I do to try to remove all padding,margins,etc.. it adds 2px for each element (I guess 1px for each side). Below is some html as an example of my problem, where I've tried to remove everything I can think of... this works fine in firefox 3 <body style="width:998px;margin-top:0;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;padding:0;"> <div style="width:100%;textalign:center"><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="width:998px;border-collapse:collapse;padding:0;margin:0;border:0;"><tr style="padding:0;margin:0;border:0;"><td style="padding:0;margin:0;border:0;">sdfsdfd</tr></td></table><div style="width:100%> </body> Hello Everyone: I am a novice HTML user - I use it to create a Help file (for an MS/Access database), using HTML Help Workshop. My question concerns line spacing, using the following code: <b><u>Server:</u></b> <ul> <li>First List item...</li> </ul> Using this code, there will be a blank line between "Server" and "First List item...". Is it possible to eliminate this line and have the list start in the next line after "Server"? Thanks. . . Tony N. Hey folks... I've searched and searched for an answer for this, but with no luck. Probably because I don't know how to exactly describe my problem. Anyway, the issue is my page is displaying differently in IE and Firefox (surprise!). The spacing between the top image and the body divs are different. I'm not sure if it's an HTML issue or a CSS one. The page in question is: http://www.project-43.com/ The CSS file is he http://project-43.com/images/style.css It displays the way I want it too in Firefox. If you look at it in IE, you'll see the top image looks short, but that is because the spacing between the left menu area and the body on the right is too big. I appreciate any pointers that you might be able to offer. Thanks! Ok so I'm learning along the way by playing around with what my web designer started. I'm having trouble working out what part of the html does the spacing between my text and the input box. Here's what I'm stuck at: You can see how where it says 'click for more fonts' the box isn't in line with the others. Any help would be much appreciated.... I'm starting to go cross-eyed lol. Alright i'm having a little trouble. When I add stuff to the side boxes, they are farther down then i want them to be, here is a pic: I'm wanting to move it up some, but I don't know how, I have been trying for a long time though. Here is the HTML Code: Code: <div class="box2 margin1"> <div class="tail-right"> <div class="corner-right-bottom"> <div class="corner-left-bottom"> <div class="corner-right-top"> <div class="corner-left-top"> <div class="indent"> <h3><span><span>Partners</span></span></h3> <div class="indent2"> <center><a href="http://www.elitepvpers.de"><img src="http://img230.imageshack.us/img230/2364/31421454.png" border="0"></a></center> <center><a href="http://www.4botters.com"><img src="http://img814.imageshack.us/img814/2599/88029646.png" border="0"></a></center> <div id="vent"><div style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 12px; text-align: center;"><a href="ventrilo://94.75.238.76:4696/servername=EQGVent" style="text-decoration: none;"></a></div></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> Here is the CSS: Code: .box2 {background:#bec2c5 url(images/box2-bottom-tail.gif) bottom repeat-x;} .box2 .tail-right {background:url(images/box2-right-tail.gif) right repeat-y;} .box2 .corner-right-bottom {background:url(images/box2-corner-right-bottom.gif) right bottom no-repeat;} .box2 .corner-left-bottom {background:url(images/box2-corner-left-bottom.gif) left bottom no-repeat;} .box2 .corner-right-top {background:url(images/box2-corner-right-top.gif) right top no-repeat;} .box2 .corner-left-top {background:url(images/box2-corner-left-top.gif) left top no-repeat; width:100%;} .box2 .indent {padding:4px 6px 6px 4px;} .box2 .indent2 {padding:15px 12px 0px 6px;} Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. I want to remove the space between the top frame and the main frame, but the div on the main frame doesn't start on the top of the frame... http://black1c3.awardspace.com how can i do it?? I am really new to learning html and I have just set up a form using formmail.pl. It works great but if the customer enters a carriage return it doesn't show up on my results. For example, if someone types this: Line1 Line2 I get it as Line1Line2. I'd like to be able to program it so I get it as it was originally posted. Here is my code: <form action="cgi-sys/formmail.pl" method="post"><input name="recipient"value="drmarie@askavetquestion.com" type ="hidden" enctype="text/plain"><font face="Arial"> Your first name: <input type="text" name="owner name" size="30" /> <br /> <br /> Pet's name: </font> <font face="Arial"><input type="text" name="name" size="30" /><br /> <br /> Your email address: (you will be sent an email with a link directing you to your answer)<br /> <input name="email" size="20" value=""type="text"/><br /><br /> How old is your pet?</font> <select name="age"> <option>Less than 3 months</option> <option>3-6 months</option> <option>6-12 months</option> <option>1-2 years</option> <option>2-5 years</option> <option>5-8 years</option> <option>8-11 years</option> <option>11-15 years</option> <option>More than 15 years</option></select><font face="Arial"><br /> <br /> What breed is your pet?<br /> </font><font face="Arial"><input type="text" breed="Breed" size="30" /><br /> <br /><br /> What is your question about your pet? <br /> </font> <textarea name="question" rows="25" cols="80"></textarea><br /> <font face="Arial"><br /> </font><font face="Arial"><input type="submit" value="Send Question" /><input type="reset" /></font></form> Thanks so much! Marie So, I am working on a website for the final project for one of my classes, and while it looks fine in Firefox and Safari, there is some funky spacing in my divs/table set up with my inline frame in IE: (I have IE 7, but I would like this to work in all versions as I'm not sure what browser my professor has) http://grandmas.host-ed.net/ in IE, you will see there is a space below the top banner and another one between the footer and the border... how can I get rid of these? Here is my code (image map removed b/c it's long and unneeded for my question) Code: <html> <head> <title>Grandma Mae's Country Naturals</title> </head> <body background="bg.jpg" bgproperties="fixed"> <center> <table Cellpadding="0" Cellspacing="0" border="0"> <tr><td> <div style="border: solid 0 #a34c30; border-left-width:3px; border-right-width:3px; border-top-width:3px; padding-left:0ex padding-right:0ex padding-top:0ex padding-bottom:0ex"> <img src="gcn_nav2.jpg" usemap="#mymap" border="0"> </div></td></tr> <tr><td> <div style="border: solid 0 #a34c30; border-left-width:3px; border-right-width:3px; padding-left:0ex padding-right:0ex padding-top:0ex padding-bottom:0ex"> <IFRAME name="inlineframe" src="home.html" width=854 height=350 frameborder="0"></IFRAME> </div></td></tr> <tr><td> <div style="border: solid 0 #a34c30; border-left-width:3px; border-right-width:3px; border-bottom-width:3px; padding-left:0ex padding-right:0ex padding-bottom:0ex padding-top:0ex"> <img src="footer2.jpg"> </div> </td></tr></table> <font color="FFCC99" size="1" face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>This site is not affiliated with Grandma Mae's County Naturals</b></font> </center> </map> </body> </html> It's kind of improvised and I am no html expert so perhaps there is a better way to get the look I was going for? Also, I know there is some extra/unneeded code there, but it's all stuff I added when trying to fix the spacing (and it didn't work) and was too lazy to take away. haha Thanks a ton, Nathalie I've set up a <ul> with some breaks between each <li>. The spacing differs between FF and IE. It seems that the first <br> is ignored by IE, but not FF. Anyone know why, or a workaround? Thanks. Hello, I have a table text spacing problem. I'm trying to have two text elements (p's, spans's, whatever) stacked vertically or as close as possible underneath one of other. I cannot for the life of me remove the gap in between. I've tried margins, padding, cellpadding/cellspacing, border-collapse, and still, nothing works. I've attached an example using primitive HTML. Anyone have any ideas? The code: Code: <table width="650" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td>TEXT</td> </tr> <tr> <td>TEXT2</td> </tr> </table> Thanks! Edit: Line-height did the trick. |
