Re: [css-d] centering block elements in IE 6.0 fails
Hello, almost two years ago I had trouble horizontally centering an absolutely positioned element: On Tuesday 24 October 2006, Gunlaug Sørtun wrote: Daniel Kabs wrote: Please see the test page at http://www.mobotixserver.de/~daniel/css_center_horizontally.html The page works on Firefox and Konqueror but not on IE 6.0 (SP2). ... IE6 can *not* relate A:P elements to opposite sides of parent-container, so only one of these properties is used... left: 0; right: 0; ...not both. IE ends up positioning '.center' according to 'left: 0;' and ignores 'right: 0;'. Result: the auto-margins becomes useless in that browser. I found a workaround by setting the element to relative positioning and wrapping it with an absolutely positioned element instead. This now works on IE 6 and 7, too. I updated the test page and the css wiki page accordingly.

[css-d] Block elements blooey
I've gotten myself in trouble with this layout, and I can't figure my way out of it, although I've been trying for a while. This is what I want the layout to be: * Textured body borders right and left and ivory content box centered between them This works now but I don't why. I can't see where I've defined right and left margins. * The logo should center to the page * The left nav box is in the right place * Everything else should center to the area between the left nav box and right border of content box. This isn't happening. Some items almost center, some don't center at all. Apparently the uls are pushing their contents to the right.

Plus 2 font-scaling in FF exposes the structural weakness of the layout. Setting height on containers sometimes causes grave issues as the text expands it has no place to go except to shoot out the bottom. You might try deleting the restrictive heights, and declare padding-bottom in em on those containers. __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
[css-d] Broken borders in IE 6 and the third column placement
Gurus, We are trying to design a simple CSS based layout but it turns out nothing is as simple :). The design can be seen at http://www.newwavecell.com/design/Index.html There are two issues: a. The border lines are broken when we scroll down using IE. It works fine with Mozilla. b. The content in third column always shows up in the bottom and we can't make it to appear at the top. What could be the reason and how can we fix this? Thanks for your help.

I'm not a web pro, my background for a while was a tester on a large travel website, so I have a fair-ish idea of things. I'm building a site at the moment as per below url: http://beta.bedazzled.name It looks fine in FF and Opera, a little broken in Konqueror and completely broken in IE7. I use Linux and I don't have IE7 at home (though I am looking at installing ies4linux), but I've had a look at work. It should look like the below mockup I built: http://beta.bedazzled.name/mockup/mockup.png The main background for the body is a tiled 1px image, as are backgrounds for both nested div's, if there is another way of doing it to avoid this any suggestions would be appreciated. Hi Daniel, I would strongly recommend recreating all your bakground images wider than 1px. Tiling tiny images slos some browsers to a crawl, as they have to process each instance of the tiled image. With a vertical gradient in a .png or .gif image you will find that an image 20px or even 100px wide is not signifiantly larger.
