HTML - Horizontal Navigation Positioning Problem
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 Similar TutorialsHi, I recently taught my self HTML and CSS so i'm still a bit shaky i started making a website to practice. i made a website with a top nav bar and a side nav bar. i can't seem to get my text to sit in the corner of both like in most websites it just seems to sit in the middle of the vertical side bar here is my HTML code and CSS code HTML Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <title>Testing... 1 2 3</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type"text/css" href="CSS1.css" /> </head> <body> <h1> Testing Website </h1> <ul id="nav-list"> <li><A href=Home>Home</A></li> <li><A href=HTML>HTML</A></li> <li><A href=CSS>CSS</A></li> <li><A href=JavaScript>JavaScript</A></li> <li><A href=XML>XML</A></li> <li><A href=PHP>PHP</A></li> <li><A href=SQL>SQL</A></li> </ul> <ul id="side-bar"> <li><b>HTML Intro</b></li> <li><A href=SQL>HTML Home</A></li> <li><A href=SQL>Intro</A></li> <li><A href=SQL>Getting Started</A></li> <li><b>Basics</b></li> <li><A href=SQL>Basics</A></li> <li><A href=SQL>Elements</A></li> <li><a href=SQL>Attributes</a></li> </ul> <p> lets have a look </p> </body> </html> HTML Code: @charset "utf-8";

Hey, I was just wondering how I could have the navigation bar centred despite what resolution you view it in rather than fine in one and messed up in others. This is where it's for.. www.aweentertainment.com/tempindex.html Thanks. Hello, First of all I am not a fan of HTML frames but in this case it is necessary.. Please take a look at http://www.2chill.net/frame.html Basically I want the navigation (located in the top frame) to appear in front of the main frame.. is this possible? If that is undoable, is it possible to create a HTML page which contains an iframe with a height & width of 100% minus a fixed number of pixels for header and footer? If that is possible, I could set the z-index of the navigation to a higher number than the z-index of the iframe which will ensure the proper visualization (?). Thanks, John Hi all, Graphic designer here hell bent on learning web design with a question probably asinine for all those viewing but vexing to me for the last week. I have a site beautifully designed (can be seen here as a static jpeg) and seemingly straight forward and basic but making it functional on the web as I designed is proving to be quite the arduous task. I have many questions concerning this project but I'll keep this thread focused on the code for positioning images on the navbar. I have the buttons (67px by 14px) and sidebar (36px by 594px) all measured out and have tried a few different semantics to accomplish this but all for not. The images always end up stacking in the top left corner. HTML Code: <body>
<div id="butttons">
</div>
<div id="nav">
<img src="images/layout/images/Side_nav.png"/>
</div>
<div id="butttons">
<div id="nav_Home">
<img src="images/layout/images/Home.png"/>
<div id="nav_Portfolio">
<img src="images/layout/images/Portfolio.png"/>
<div id="nav_Contact">
<img src="images/layout/images/Contact.png"/>
</div>
</body>
And then this is the Refferenced style sheet HTML Code: #nav {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
}
div.nav_side {
background-image: url(images\layout\Side_nav.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: top center;
width: 36px;
height: 594px;
}
#buttons {
position: absolute;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: top center;
top: 500px;
left: 36px;
}
.nav_home {
background-image: url(images\layout\Home.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: top center;
position: absolute; top: 552; left: 35;
width: 67px;
height: 14px;
}
.nav_Portfolio {
background-image: url(images\layout\Portfolio.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: top center;
position: absolute; top: 566; left: 35
width: 67px;
height: 14px;
}
.nav_Contact {
background-image: url(images\layout\contact.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: top center;
style="position: absolute; top: 580; left: 35;"/>
width: 67px;
height: 14px;
}
I literally just started learning Html /CSS / Java a month ago; spare no details! ANY help with ANY (text formatting, background gradient that adjusts relative to a screen size, rollovers on the nav etc...) part of putting this site together will be more appreciated then most can fathom. I'd be willing to exchange some graphic work if any of you stuck this out to the end with me. 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 Hello, I have a demonstration site set up at: http://www.sikhfaith.com/demo The site works perfectly in Firefox 2.0. However, in Internet Explorer 7.0, there's a huge blank space on the right side of the page which causes IE to display a horizontal scrollbar. I haven't been able to pinpoint what is causing this. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. 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, I am trying to figure out why I am having a problem with a drop-menu in Internet Explorer 6. The site I am currently working on is at http://www.falcolombardi.net/Saint%20Anne/. It appears fine in FireFox, but I am needing it to work in Internet Explorer as well. There is only one element that is needing to drop, and that's a 'Newsletter' option under the "Perish Life" link. Any help is greatly appreciated! basicly my site works find on firefox, works fine on the most up to date internet explorer, but on internet explorer 5 or 6 it messes up abit! i cant find the problem www.boldsac.co.uk thats the link. if anyone knows why its doin this could you help me out please I made a Custom BG for my navigation.. It possible to have a html/CSS code to add this BG under my navigation.. and have the links overlay on the BG? Thanx In Advance!!!! Okay, so I have a small issue here. I started a webcomic, and I'm now redesigning the website. I'm using SSI includes on my pages, and I'm having an issue with my navigation. I want to be able to include first comic/previous comic/next comic/current comic buttons, but the problem is this: with the previous comic/next comic buttons, I'm not really sure how to code it. I can't type in the name of the page I want it to go to, because then it'll be the same on every page. Is there a way around this? I figured I could tell it to go "next" and have it refer to "next" somewhere on the individual pages, which would send it to the next comic in the sequence, but I can't find the coding to do that, and I can't figure out the right way to word it to find it in a search. If I'm not too vague, can you guys help me out here? Thanks! Hi guys, www.ivoog.com - I am having a problem with IE 6 on the navigation menu. Open it up in IE 6 and mouseover the different buttons (scooters, miniscooters, bikes, atvs, accessories, etc). See how it kind of gets "messed up" when you mouseout? What is the problem? Is it a simple solution? Here's my CSS: http://www.pics.ivoog.com/top/navigation.css javascript: http://www.pics.ivoog.com/top/navi.js If it's a fairly simple solution what do I need to change? Thanks! Hey guys, I'm a designer trying to code my website which is problem number 1. I'm trying to crreate these solid rollover states for my graphic headers on my nav (about and contact). I found a site that I plugged code from using javascript which i dont' know. The "about" link works fine but the "contact" link effects teh about link instead of targeting itself. Any help you can offer I would really appreciate.

The xtml and css pages verify and I am at a loss as to what the problem is. 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 hi, i want to have a search box, and i would like it to be in the same line as my horizontal menu. how can i display a form inline with the rest of my menu? if i use div align right for my form it can be pushed right , but doesnt display properly in ie. I assume its not a right way to do it. could someone please help me out? thanks. <li><a href="" title="Miscellaneous">Misc.</a> <ul> <li><a href="">Miscellaneous</a></li> <li><a href="#">News Feed</a></li> </ul><span></span> </li> <form method="get" id="searchform" action=""> <input type="text" class="search1" style="color: #696565" value="Search " onfocus="if(this.value==this.defaultValue)this.value=''; this.style.backgroundColor='#FFCC99'" onblur="if(this.value=='')this.value=this.defaultValue; this.style.backgroundColor='#FFFFCC'"/> <button class="image" title="Submit Search">Go</button> </form> </ul> When i tried to overlap two images, one of them at foreground(with opacity of zero value) and other one at background using absolute positioning. The image with absolute position works well with Google Chrome while when i try to open with any other browser or resoltion, the image displaces from its position i.e. it changes its required position. Code: <img src="myimage.jpg" width="150" height="113" style="opacity:0.0;filter:alpha(opacity=0);position:relative"><img src="myimg2.jpg" style="position:absolute;top:150px;left:150px" /> Please provide possible solutions... Look at: http://test6.waltonstreetwebdesign.com/ If you look at it in firefox, it works fine. In IE 7, the positioning for div "logo" is not working properly and you can't see the logo. What is my problem? Thank you. HTML Code: <a href="http://live.xbox.com/en-US/MyXbox/Profile?GamerTag=P2W360"> <img stely="position:absolute; TOP:30px; LEFT:30px; WIDTH:75px; HEIGHT:75px" src="http://i43.tinypic.com/35jibzd.pnge" /> </a> Why won't it position properly? |
