Is it Friday yet? Or has ACFUG just become Robert's personal tech
support line?
Don't get me wrong, I'm all for helping fellow members of the
community, that's why Cameron, Nathan and I originally founded
ACFUG. But every thread lately is dedicated to solving Robert's
latest problem. I understand you don't have the funds to pay someone
else to do this for you or to take a class. However, I am beginning
to wonder if Robert has the ability to do the work on his own, either.
Perhaps this isn't your strong suite and its time to cut your losses
and find another way to solve this particular business problem? Is
your time best spent on trying to figure out CF, HTML, CSS and
AbleCommerce or growing your business in other ways? These are the
questions I'd be asking myself if it was my business...
Yeah, that was harsh, but tough love is sometimes the best love of all.

I changed the 190 px; to 390 and no change
The page code has
<div id="navBar">
then
<div id="content">

Sounds like your navBar "content" is wider than you're allowing for
it. Even if the navBar is wrapping, the actual content block should
still be showing side by side.

Ok did all those things and now the navbar shows at x%, and then
wraps down to the end of the bar and then the content shows. What
would make it wrap?

Also be aware that padding and margins make up part of the 100% (IE
vs FF treat things differently) so don't use 25% and 75%, start
with 20% and 70% until you know what your padding/margin needs are.

"Do I put the content after the navbar in the page code?"
yes, that should do it.

Not sure on the syntax on that.
Given:
#navBar{
margin: 0 79% 0 0;
padding: 0px;
background-color: #cccccc;
border-right: 1px solid #666;
border-bottom: 1px solid #666;
}
#content{
float:right;
width: 75%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0 3% 0 0;
}
How would you change it?
#navBar{
float:left;
width: 25%
padding: 0px;
background-color: #cccccc;
border-right: 1px solid #666;
border-bottom: 1px solid #666;
}
#content{
float:left;
width: 75%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0 3% 0 0;
}
Is the above what I am hearing you say?
What will keep the nav bar left and the content right?
Do I put the content after the navbar in the page code?
Is that how you mean stackup?

First get rid of your margin on the navBar div. Next float them
both left, with % widths set to add up to <= 100%.
Things set to float left will stack up across the screen until they
hit 100%, then they wrap down to the next 'line'.
Also if you are doing anything with floats with either you header
or footer, you should add a div (before or after depending) that
has a style set to "clear:both;"

Subject: [ACFUG Discuss] CSS to <cfinclude>
I have a page I am working with that uses Div and css to set up the
#navbar, and #content.
The page is like this:
------------------------------------
cfinclude Header.cfm
-------------------------------------
div | div
#navbar | #content
|
-------------------------------------
cfinclude Footer.cfm
-------------------------------------
CSS shows
---------------------
#navBar{
margin: 0 79% 0 0;
padding: 0px;
background-color: #cccccc;
border-right: 1px solid #666;
border-bottom: 1px solid #666;
}
#content{
float:right;
width: 75%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0 3% 0 0;
}
----------------------
Now the qustion is what determines where the columns are?
I wish to get rid of the DIV and use cfinclude.
What I dont understand is how does it stands to reason that the
page code shows
div
#content
goo goo goo
/div
div
#navbar
foo foo foo
/div
I dont see what makes the columns line up and how I would replace
"div #navbar" with "cfinclude leftnav.cfm"
Any pointers?
