Re: [css-d] After positioning relative, IE places everything far below

I would use a negative margin to shift something up like that. But relative positioning, without applying any offsets, is useful for setting things for absolutely positioned elements to base off of. Offsetting relative positioned elements is very occasionally useful when it doesn't matter if a gap is left behind. I see. Thank you.

[css-d] After positioning relative, IE places everything far below
Hello, I'm just now experimenting with 'position: relative;' and I've come to find out that even when I place an element outside a div (with relatively positioned elements inside it) it is still pushed below the point where the positioned elements WOULD have been (had they not been positioned). So now it seems that I have to relatively position ALL the elements in IE that come after my initial positioned elements if I want to fill the gap. Firefox doesn't exhibit this behavior. There's got to be a work around for this or it's also possible that I'm doing something wrong. I'd submit a link but my page is on a test server that can't be reached from the outside.

Hmm... then I don't understand how relatively positioning anything can be useful, if after you initially position something you're forced to position ever next element after the first one. If Fx does show a different behavior, then most probably Fx is correct. I suspect the elements inside to be floated? I have no floats. Then you have a problem in getting help from those who do not have access to a crystal ball. You mean you don't have a crystal ball?? I moved everything as it is now to the public server so you can see it here: www.swatgear.com/impacst.php Thanks for your help Ingo.

[css-d] Vertically alignment of the custom list bullet (image)
Hello, Is it possible to adjust the vertical positioning of graphical list bullets? I've got an arrow bullet that is resting about 2 pixels higher than I'd like it to. I haven't found anything that suggets it can be moved (css-d archives, google, my own experimentation). Is this possible, and if so how can I do it?

[css-d] non-floated element aligning to bottom of floated element (IE)
Hello, I'm not sure what this is called and I was unsuccessful in finding anything about it in google. I have a column that is 'float: left; width: 220px;' and a table that is 'margin-left: 220px;'. In Fx the table looks as expected, directly adjacent to the floated column. But in IE the table is positioned to the bottom right of the floated column, just below the bottom edge of the floated element. If I take off the 'float: left;' the table stays exactly where it is when looking at it in IE. In Fx the table moves down to below the floated element (as expected). In other words both browsers look the same with the 'float: left;' commented out. I tried floating the table to the right but that didn't do anything. I also decreased the width of the table thinking it was a wrapping issue but that didn't help either. What am I missing? Chris. p.s. I'd provide a link but the site doesn't have an external ip address. __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

[css-d] CSS Scope: I think I'm being specific enough...?
Hello, I've got the following HTML... form id=order_submit input type=submit value=Submit Order/ /form ...that is being influenced by some more general CSS rules (background and border and width). If I declare those things within the style attribute I can get it to look how I want. Yet when I use the following CSS it's not affected: form#order_submit { width: 100%; background: none; border: none; text-align: center; } form#order_submit input { font-size: large; font-family: Verdana; } I know that I'm referencing it correctly because my rules for the input/ tag are working correctly. Even 'text-align' in the form's declaration is working! It's just width, background, and border that are not. What am I missing here?
