HTML - Positioning Elements To The Exact Spot
Hi,
I am looking for some insight on this matter. I currently convert images to html by using fireworks to slice up td backgrounds. and then position elements on an overall table with invisible image spacers. This is very time consuming.. I am looking for an easier way to convert images to html. Is there a program that will let me accomplish this easier? I dont want to use invisible images any more. Any advantages / disadvantages in using either approach? I am looking for a program that will be wc3 compliant and multi browser compatible. Thanks for your input. Similar TutorialsYou know those sites where all this information is on this one REALLY long page and they have links at the top to send you to the exact spot where you need to be? How do I make that happen? This will be for myspace but I've heard that myspace filters the "#" that is needed in the code so is there anyway around this? Hi: I would like the freedom to position <input> elements of a form to specific places on my page. What is the proper way to do that please ?? Thanks, -Mel Smith if you go to my website, http://www.freewebs.com/rollingdice/index.htm, you'll see that there is a single rss feed from googles Sci/Tech section. I also have an rss feed from HackADay.com but for some reason i can't get it to display correctly when i try to position it. I've tried everything from making a div around the javascript element to giving it an id and setting positioning in a css file. If i dont have the id or div around it the hackaday rss would just display under the google rss in a very slopy way. Can anyone help me out? Hello All, I have been developing basic websites for the last couple of years and never really done much with Hot Spots now i know how to make the hot spot HTML Code: <map name="header1Map" id="header1Map"> <area shape="rect" coords="158,11,358,138" href="#" /> </map> Now instead of going to a new page onclick i want it to make a image pop up on the same page like the program pop box but cannot seem to get the code to work here is what i have so far. HTML Code: <map name="header1Map" id="header1Map"> <area shape="rect" coords="158,11,358,138" img id="1" alt="" src="images/IMG_0596.JPG" pbshowcaption="True" pbcaption="" style="width: 150px; height: 100px;" class="PopBoxImageSmall" title="Click to magnify/shrink" onclick="Pop(this,50,'PopBoxImageLarge');" /> </map> the script works when i insert outside of hot spot. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello Folks I want to be able to anchor to not only a different page, this is a simple link, but I also want to be able to go to a specific point on that new page from the original hyper link... Example; I am viewing on page "A," on my site and I want to set a link on page "A" to take me to page "B" to the word "Widget." On page "B" I have the word "Widget" 2/3rds the way down the page. I want to go further than just to the top of page "B," I want my SAME link from page "A" to take me to the word "Widget" that is near the bottom of the page "B" all in the same link. (One click) I understand I am going to need to set code at each word, this is a lot of work and this is OK.. Thank You So Very Much for any assistance David I'm looking for a routine or function that allows for floating popups when the pointer is placed over a hot spot on a client-side image map. Currently there are plenty of sources for code out there that show a popup when floating over a text URL or an IMG URL, but when putting a mouse pointer over an image map the same code does not work. Even when declaring the image map an OBJECT rather than just a basic <img>. So essentially, I want the mouse to hover over an image map, and then have a small pop up of an image show up. Thanks in advance help is greatly appreciated. I'm trying to build a "Start Menu" style nav based on something I created in BlueVoda. I've finally gotten all the java working, but i can't make my button float over my header image like I had it in the WYSIWYG editor. My site is arlenbresh.atspace.me I've tried style="position:absolute" but to no avail. What am i missing? Should I be taking a different approach to this? on my site (www.absoluteECW.site88.net) underneath the button Latest Blog.. i want to put in this youtube video, HOW do i get it, what code should i use? The background is set to behind, i just want to know, have it sized and everything. Anyone who can help, will give BIG props!!! please help, this is the final thing that i need Hello there, I am pretty new to web programming. I am currently having problem with Iframe's height. here's what happen. I have a page with 2 Div. First div is the header with menu. The 2nd Div Contains 2 Iframes. The first Iframe is my title bar location, and the 2nd iframe is my content location. The menu and title bar location is fine. When I click on something from the menu bar, it changes both the title bar and the content page. I did it like this because I don't want my title bar to scroll up when my content page is longer. So here's my problem: for the 2nd Iframe which contain my content, I couldn't set the height properly so it will fill and extend to the bottom of the screen when resolution is high. Also i don't want a scroll bar to the whole website, but only to the 2nd iframe. here's an example. I made a very simple version of what is exactly my problem.

If I fetch the height in mozilla I am able to fetch the exact value in px but in case of IE it gives "auto". How do I get their exact values? Please help ---------------------------------- How do I make element's change their height automatically depending on whether they have anything contained within them? My page background is a div's bg image but the div hasn't expanded to the size of the contained elements. The div's name is nicola-bg Here is the site I have the same problem too with #image-section. That div is styled to have large borders but the borders don't extend to the height of the div's containing elements. I'm trying to understand the need for <div> elements, couldnt we do the same things with a <p> element. I understand the <span> element because it allows you to have box models for inline elements. Is <div> mostly to keep things organized and easy to read? Please help me, I'm trying to hide elements (boxes) is HTML in this way: <?php if($_POST) { //left.style.visibility="hidden" document.getElementById(left).style.display = 'none'; } ?> By checking if a form had been submitted...But when displaying the page all elements on the page is hidden not the element "left" only..Why? Thanks is advance. This is my first project using CSS and anything other than basic HTML and it's been going good so far. The page I'm designing is for my new guild on World of Warcraft (yes I'm addicted) and my problem is with the Content DIV i created. The site is http://twilightsdawn.50webs.com/index.html In the code, I nested DIV elements containing the actual news posts themselves within the actual Content DIV, and by not specifying a height I had hoped the element would resize and simply tack on extra DIVS below one another. This seems to be the case with Banner and Content Text DIVs but the second set simply overwrite the previous and all my attempts to force the second "news post" below the first have failed or resulted in bizarre alignments. I am at a loss and would appreciate any design suggestions and/or feedback on the code. Thanks Hello everyone, I have a problem and it is driving me insane :/. I am trying to create 3 inline boxes (using span or div?) that are right next to one another (ie. with no borders). The two at either side are of length 25% and the middle is of length 50%. Here is my effort at coding it myself : 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>Untitled Document</title> <style> body { word-spacing: 0px; } .sideWrap { top: 0px; width: 25%; height: 100px; background-color: #0CF; display: inline-block; } .sideWrap2 { top: 0px; width: 25%; height: 100px; background-color: #0CF; display: inline-block; } .center { padding: 0px; margin: 0px; left: 25%; width: 50%; height: 200px; background-color: #0F0; display: inline-block; } </style> </head> <body> <span class="sideWrap"></span> <span class="center"></span> <span class="sideWrap"></span> </body> </html> But unfortunately, this produces ... something I dont want .. as shown by the attachment. This clearly has inexplicable white borders that I have not coded :S, and the three blocks are not inline. Can anyone give a simple explanation as to how to put these in line and eliminate the border between them? Thanks in advance, mintsmike Is there a way that anyone knows of to put list items side by side in a row? I'm currently working with some html/css/jquery that allows you to move li elements around and order them. However, instead of being on a new line for each element, I'd like to put several side by side in a row. Is there any way with html/css to make this happen, or is there no way to change the "nature" of li elements? I am using ASP.NET however my front end design skills arent that great. what I was wondering was, since I am using a repeater or a datalist control, I want each element to have a nice design. the site is like a products site (retail type website). I mean, the styling for each element is something I im unsure how to design, any suggestions or tips on how each element should be designed/layed out? product detail: qty, product name, image, smalldescription. styling/designing/theme doesnt matter, you can include that. just a rough guide would be nice in terms of how the layout for a product should be design, like where each piece of information should be layed out. thanks. thanks. |
