[css-d] Alignment Problem

2009-11-02 Thread grovesdavid
I can't get this to work, and don't see why it will not align correctly. The 
border shows the problem, we have the first one almost correctly aligned from 
then on it just gets progressively worst.

Link:

http://www.linkhomes2000.co.uk/main/selling/link_start_sell-property.php

CSS:

.para1 {
padding:0; 
margin: 4px;
float: left;
display:block;
width:45%;
height:3em !important;
border:1px solid black;
}


.para4 { 
padding:0;
/*margin: 4px;*/
float: right;
display:block;
width:45%;
height:3em !important;
border:1px solid black;
}

.textarea1 {
font:1em/1.5em bold italic small-caps verdana,serif;
margin:4px;
padding:0;
width:65%;
height:1.75em !important;
float:right;
}

I've tried to keep this as simple as possible...

 Could it be that you have br / tags in the paragraphs that don't line 
 up? I haven't done any testing. I just noticed that difference in the ones 
 that work and the ones that don't.

Re: [css-d] list Within list problem

2009-05-28 Thread grovesdavid
Erik Vorhes Wrote:

Your problem has to do with specificity and the order of your CSS.
 Because the li elements for the ol are also within the ul, all
 your style declarations for ul li also affect the styling for ol li.
 (I.e., the CSS treats ul ol li and ul li as being equal, so *all* your
 li styles are touching the ordered list items.)

 You could get around this by changing the ul li {} styles to ul  li
 {} but this won't work (if I recall) with Internet Explorer 6. So
 you're best off if you move the styles for ol.ifl li to the end of
 your CSS file. Your ordered lists should render closer to the way
 you're expecting them to.

 Erik

Hi  Erik

tried that and it still does not resolve my problem. I see what your saying: 
CSS does not differentiate between olli and ulli because the ordered 
list is inside the li tags of the un-ordered list?

So the only real answer is to move the ordered list outside of the 
un-ordered list, if I understand that's the only answer I have here.

Hello,

Thank you to all who replied to this topic. I  now have it displaying how I 
want, (not the way I want) there is much more mark up than I wanted, but it 
works. see Here:

CSS here:

http://www.linkhomes2000.co.uk/css/forms/pension-form.css

As I say if you check, there is much more mark up added, but it gives the 
display I want. (have not verified it) yet, but think it should be alright..

Once again thank you to all who took time to help, they are what makes this 
list so important to us beginners...

Please keep doing so, we would all loose if you ever became to busy to

The address below list the file and css, if you view the file in FF then IE

 It is clearly tabular data, so, use an HTML table.
 A table is the tidiest solution there is for such cases.

My Question is more relevant to possibly a MySQL  PHP forum. I already

The problem is quite difficult, (querying up to eight tables/  joins).

I've already googled, but it's difficult to tell from those results which 
would be a good one to join! (I only want to join one)

Hello,

Don't sell yourself short, this is not simple, not if done correctly. I've 
tried and found quite a few problems. Most expand with content, and the 
easiest way is to use a background blank gif to maintain height integrity.

Just a thought. The alternative would be to keep all columns the same 
colour, and this colour the same as the background, then it appears to be 
the same, at least visually.

Sometimes in css visual deception is the only answer, remember the site 
visitor will see the finished product, I.E the GUI

Best of luck, I personally found it useful...

Re: [css-d] using a header inline in a paragraph

Chris Ladd Wrote:

h2 {
 display: inline;

Hello,

Have you tried this Chris, and did it work? Because according to the rule 
book it shouldn't.

Display inline only changes the way an item is displayed in the client 
agent, not what it is. EG P is a block element, H is a block element, and 
as P is a weird block element that can not contain another block element 
this should not work.

One way of emulating this is to use an true inline element span is a good 
choice and style it.

.first {
Font-family: ariel
font-co;or:#
font-size:120%
}

Or whatever, that should work (Not Tried it, but see no reason it would 
fail) Maybe some could confirm that...

 I'm guessing your trying to centre this element in browser window?

I'm not using floats to  place my three columns, which are liquid.

I don't know about me advising you, you should be guiding me, I don't know

Also place this in you CSS:

The only CSS involved here is: http://www.linkhomes2000.co.uk/css/forms.css

And it's forms3, the last one in the sheet. Offer this as there are more 
than one sheet loaded, and it's a little untidy at present.

[css-d] Code error

2007-09-21 Thread grovesdavid
Hello,

I've an error in my code which I can't find. I know it's a code error 
because the document works in I/E but not in either, FF or Opera.

file: http://www.linkhomes2000.co.uk/index.php

Problem is search form left, and town search which should sit below search 
form.

there should be a white border around the whole form, instead it's only 
around the H1 header tag, and the town search should be below the search 
form, it's half way up the leftside.

The style sheet in question should only be:

 http://www.linkhomes2000.co.uk/css/forms.css

I maybe wrong but it's the only one I've altered.

the elements should be:

div #fcont, div .forms1( first item on stylesheet)


#townsearch (last item on form1)

Works in I/E.

Kind Regards

DG)

Two questions:

1) I've down;loaded the above [Safari Beta 3) How do you set it

2) can it really help window users to evaluate the

Hi,

If I didn't know better I would say this was a windowed object problem.

Though I thought only form, flash or pictures where classed as windowed 
objects in IE xxx.

If it turns out to be that problem then you have to use JavaScript, I know.

Spent ages getting Son of Suckerfish to work, only to scrap it when I ran 
into this problem.

[css-d] any other way of doing this?

2007-06-20 Thread grovesdavid
Hello,

My last attempt at using son of suckerfish menu here:

http://www.linkhomes2000.co.uk/helper/tryagain-index-4.php


The problem are the windowed elements in the two forms.

It would appear that the only answer is to use an iframe shim, with 
JavaScript. If this is true, then it's to greater risk on the sites menu, 
for if JavaScript is turned off the menu will not work (this is correct?).

So does anyone know of another way to stop the menu going behind the select 
fields, without using JavaScript.

Someone mentioned css hide/show, but then someone said you can't float a div 
over the windowed object with this method. Anyone know what css hide/show 
is? is it just visibility, because that will not work.

Moving the forms is not an option

[css-d] Menu ID Ignoring containing Div class width.

2007-06-08 Thread grovesdavid
Hello,

Having some problems here:

http://www.linkhomes2000.co.uk/trials/tryagain-index-3.php


Firstly must state I have div class=nav id=nav4 now both of these 
contain elements with position:absolute.

the class places the div in and absolute position, while the id places the 
liul in position:absolute.

But he id seems to be totally impervious to the class, it just ignores it?

I set width:75% on class then width 100% in id should place the id in it's 
correct position, but in fact it just extends to 100% 0f the screen, 
ignoring the fact it has an containing div?

Also, if I try and insert more than four buttons in FF2 or three in IE6 
(both pc) they fall out of the bottom. If I use clear, then menu becomes 
vertical instead of horizontal.

if I use display inline or (inline-block for IE) makes no difference, don't 
understand what the menu id is doing and why it ignores it's containing div?

Any help gratefully appreciated.. Still haven't (as yet corrected html 
failure points on validator report, but these not causing current error, as 
said passed css validator)

That fixed it, I've left the clearing div in place in the hope it will 
assist in alignment later on..

BTW, I've noticed that when I reply it goes back to the individual. So I 
hope you don't mind, as I've put this back on the list for all to see.
Thanks

[css-d] Please Please help

2007-05-04 Thread grovesdavid
Hi,

Right I've cut this right back. The only thing here is the basic layout.

So someone please help me, I can't see what is causing the problem with IE.

http://www.linkhomes2000.co.uk/trials/trial-basic-index.php

The layout works fine in:

FF
Opera

But in IE the sidebar leaves a small space on the right which can be seen,
but when you enter content is very clear.
Please what am I doing wrong, I can't find the answer...

It's not the IE float bug, I've tried div .content {display:inline} and it 
has no effect

Honestly it is lean and mean now..

[css-d] Two background-images

2007-04-30 Thread grovesdavid
Hi,

I'm trying to place two background-images in the same document.

one in the content element, and one in the nav element. I only get the first 
one displaying no matter what I do.

Have googled and what I've found seems to say can't be done, but like to 
make sure, hence this request.

There was one site which implied they may have done something, but couldn't 
get it to open in my browser.


TIA for any help

Hi,

Can't see anything wrong with. Are you testing on a local server? If so make 
sure you clear the cache in FF, then reload and check again

The only other thing I would add, is build it in FF first, and check it in 
IE.

FF and Opera are always correct IE never is.

Re: [css-d] font-size advice

2007-03-27 Thread grovesdavid
Good evening to All,

I think maybe we should now all accept the warning, and not force the 
intervention of a moderator.

I would say this, on this subject. Besides what has been written here, what 
I've been told privately and what I have managed to find on the web, (some 
going back as far, as 2003).

It seems reasonable for anyone considering asking the question, what is the 
optimum font size for my website (or however they word it).

The answer is No such animal exists. If what you've designed has satisfied 
you're client, and his site visitors then I guess it's right. If not I guess 
it's wrong.

There are no definitive answers to anything on the web, there will always be 
an exception to any rule we care to make, that's what we have to live with, 
and work with. So lets all accept it and move on..

Agree or not 'Georg?'

I've learned a lot over the last ten days, now have to start all over 
again..

Re: [css-d] perfect font sizes- any sample solutions?

2007-03-26 Thread grovesdavid
Hi,

It's amazing how much companies spend to just make web developers lives as 
difficult as possible?

IE has a problem in resizing, ems, and even after you've set the body tag, 
you will need to set it for any:

tables, select,  input. Also be aware that Safari sets it's default to 
14px;, which really helps.

I'm trying these with some success:

html
{
 font-family:;
font-size:100% ;/***for IE/
}

body
{
font-family:;
font-size:1em; /***sets font in un-altered browsers to 16px, Times New 
Roman***/

htmlbody
{
font-size: 16px; /***IE can't read this so it sets Safari to default 
16px***/ (I hope)

then if using forms:

select {
font-family:;
font-size:100%; /***for IE***/
}

and the same for submit.

I offer no guarantees, but from all the information I can find this is it, 
far short of using % for everything, tried that and it's very difficult, and 
way-ward in alignment.

Re: [css-d] perfect font sizes- any sample solutions?

2007-03-26 Thread grovesdavid
Hi,

I would like to make one final comment. I thought css was suppose to make 
life easier. (Don't get me wrong I wouldn't go back to tables for a big 
stick).

But nothing prepared me for the browser wars that have emerged with css, the 
old html never gave rise to as many problems, (at least no to my knowledge 
[maybe ignorance was bliss for me]).

P_S
Take my advice and listen to Georg. Plus the others on this list, you wont 
find many people who can/will help you more...

[css-d] image will not move

2007-03-22 Thread grovesdavid
Hi,

if you look here:

http://www.linkhomes2000.co.uk/index.php,

The problem is pretty obvious. The image on right should be inside the div 
holding the small img and text on the left.

I can move it up using a negative margin, but that shouldn't be necessary.

I've tried:

a. clearing both,
b. locating the div, 1st 2nd and 3rd, in line of the three   divs 
concerned.
c. reducing the size of the image
d. placing a right margin of 0.5em on the div

The only thing that worked was negative top margin, which is only a fix, and 
is not addressing the problem

Any help greatly appreciated

TIA

Re: [css-d] Style Format Form Elements

2007-03-11 Thread grovesdavid
Hi,

Having some real problems with styling and formatting the following form 
elements. I don't seem able to have any impact on them at all...

legend, fieldset, I thought the following may have had some effect:

HTML FORM legend{ - }

I suppose I was hoping the DOM  may have come to my aid, but no such luck. I 
thought everything we do some how interacts with the DOM, but not CSS.

I had some minor success with div class=HTML/div but only partial..

So any links on how to do this will be appreciated. I really am stuck on 
this, and re-writing everything so as to allow all people to use my site

TIA
