HTML - Specified Width Of Text Field Causing Margin Not To Work
Here is a (very trimmed-down) version of my site:
http://www.nceccec.com/en_us/css_test.html At least in IE6 and IE7, the top field does not display the specified left margin, while the bottom one correctly shows the left margin. There is only one difference between these two fields: the CSS property width is set on the first field, while no width is set on the second field. Here is all the code for this page in case someone wants to view it he HTML Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <title>Title</title> <style rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> .fielditself { font-weight : normal; display : block; margin-left : 5%; } </style> <body> <table style="width : 100%;"> <tr> <td> <form method="post" action="check_order.php"> <div><div>Year</div><div class="fielditself"><input style="width : 9ex;" type="text" name="year" /></div></div> <div><div>Make</div><div class="fielditself"><input type="text" name="make" /></div></div> </form> </td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> Thanks for any guidance! Jason Similar Tutorialsim creatinh a box containing a text. The box must be wide enough to fill a text. menu.style.width = tekst.length - this functioin gives the number of letters in text. So if the text is "hello" then the width is 5 pixels. But i need the widith of pixels needed to fit the text in a box. How can i do that? EDIT: I fixed it all! I just had unnecessary table indications. duuuhhhh. Hopefully my fix will help someone else with the same problem, though? Hi everyone! I am new here, so please bear with me! I found a few posts about this, but none seemed to fix my problem. First off, my website is he http://www.ashleywilliamsflute.com My problem is that the banner on top is set to be at 65% width. This works great in firefox and safari, but the image won't resize in IE. So, I tried using a css tag, too, and that didn't work. Here's the code I have: Code: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Ashley Williams: Flutist</title> <body bgcolor="#000000"> <style type="text/css"> A:link {background: #000000; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; color: #c4eaef; letter-spacing: 3px;} A:visited {background: #000000; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; color: #c4eaef; letter-spacing: 3px;} A:active {background: #c4eaef; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; color: #000000; letter-spacing: 3px;} A:hover {background: #c4eaef; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; color: #000000; letter-spacing: 3px;} h2 {font-family: "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", Palatino, serif; color: #c4eaef; } p {font-family: "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", Palatino, serif; color: #f1ebf1; size: 11pt; letter-spacing: 2px; line-height: 20pt; strong: 15pt; text-align: justify; margin-left: 25%; margin-right: 25%; text-indent: 30px; } #banner { float:center; width:65%; } </style> </head> <body> <div align="center" width=65%> <table border="0" width=65%> <tr> <img id="banner" src="topbanner.jpg" width=65%> </tr> </div> <tr> <h2> <div align=center width=65% style="background-color: "#000000"> | <a href="index.html"> HOME </a> | <a href="resume.html"> RESUME </a> | <a href="teaching.html"> TEACHING </a> | <a href="replist.html"> REPERTOIRE LIST </a> | <a href="programs.html"> PROGRAMS </a> | <a href="art.html"> ART </a> | <a href="contact.html"> CONTACT </a> | <a href="links.html"> LINKS </a> | </div> </h2> </tr> <P> IE also doesn't use my text settings, like the margins I chose. I'm not sure how to fix this. I used to make websites a lot, but haven't in a few years, not since CSS was just starting to be popular, and I feel quite lost! I hope someone will be able to help me-you all seem very knowledgeable and helpful so I will cross my fingers. Thanks a lot, everyone! -Ashley Hi Can any one help.

If I see the same in IE, it doesnt show all the data, and there is no scrollbar.

Thank you Hi All, Nice site BTW, my problem is i want to add some text with a background colour behind it but i want the background colour to stretch the full width of the page ? Can anybody help me out Thanks I'm a beginner studying HTML. One item that I cannot find out how to do is to put a design behind the images/text in a regular text field. For instance, if I was on a social networking site and typed about myself in a specific box on my profile. Is it possible to embed or modify my text to have a custom design in its backdrop with something such as a specific code that I may add in? |
