Re: [css-d] Background Image Not Showing in IE7/IE8

2012-11-15 Thread Elli Vizcaino
Hi Isabel, 

Thanks for your suggestion but it still didn't work. I guess there is no 
difference in writing the rule incrementally since I need the bkg-pattern.png 
image to tile and that one must be written last in the rule, when using 
multiple background images so I cannot change the order, in order to target the 
older browsers. Just don't understand why IE7/8 aren't picking up the image yet 
they are picking up the blue background color that was stated in the IE 
stylesheet. 

Here is my conditional comment in case you were wondering: 

!--[if lt IE 9]
link rel=stylesheet type=text/css href=?php 
bloginfo('template_directory'); ?/css/ie.css /
![endif]--

Hi Elli,

I cannot find the conditional comment on your code, not on the ie developer
tools, nor on firebug, (I gess it has to do with a onload js script) so I'm
not sure I'm seeing the right css files, but you do not really need a
conditional code for the multiple backgrounds if you write the rule
incrementally.

I can see this code on style.css:

body {
background: url(images/fancy-tag-bkg-med.png) no-repeat center 50px,
url(images/bkg-pattern.png) rgb(146, 212, 210); height: 100%; color:
rgb(255, 255, 255); font-family: Caviar Dreams, Helvetica, Arial,
sans-serif;
}

If you write it as:

body {
background-image: url(images/fancy-tag-bkg-med.png),
(images/bkg-pattern.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat, repeat;
background-position: 50% 50px;
background-color: #92d4d2;

...
}

older browsers, that do not support multiple backgrounds, will still render
the first background.

You can also play with rewriting rules to serve the correct background to
older browsers if the background you want to serve them is not the first in
the rule.
The only drawback of this tecnique is that it is possible some browsers
will download files that wont be used because of the rewriting..
Hope it helps,
isabel

Hi Markus, 

Yes I have. I started to experiment and rewrite the php in the conditional 
comment but I've since put it back. You should find the direct url to the IE 
stylesheet:

It looks like IE is not finding or not interpreting the stylesheet at 
all. To control this, you can do some very obvious change in the IE 
stylesheet, such as body {background:yellow} - then you see very well if 
the browser gets the stylesheet or not.


I am not quite familiar with the impacts of the media attribute. But I 
noticed that in the link element for your main stylesheet you have 
media=projection, screen. Maybe you try to add that in the link for 
the ie stylesheet, too, or remove it at all.


(Anyway, the stylesheet you provided a link to does not seem to exist:

Sorry about that. It worked when I applied zoom using the web developer tool.

I noticed that div#rightbackground is empty and has a min-height of
854px. Did you try height: 854px ?
Also, instead of having a separate div for the background image, why
don't you put it in the body or div#container or div#view?

You could use
background: url(image.jpg) top right;

[css-d] Background image randomly showing in IE6 and IE7

2010-12-10 Thread Albert van der Veen

Hi all,

Please have a look at this site: http://www.debanne.nl/

For some reason the large background photo on the right sometimes shows 
and sometimes not in IE6 and IE7. There are different pictures on every 
page which is accomplished by overruling the css with an extra style 
element in the header (generated by the CMS):


styletype=text/css media=screen#rightbackground { 
background-image:url(uploads/media/hp-foto-new.jpg); }/style


Any idea what causes this?

The background image declaration is in this rule:

.toggle_container {}

But you have the following rule that styles div.block which is a child of
div.toggle_container

#container div {
background-color:#FF;
}

I'm not sure why you're styling all the DIVs like that, but if you do not
want to change that styling you can use the following to fix the issue:

#container .block {
background-color:transparent;

Hello,

as far as I can see, the div class=block has a white background 
color which is overlaying the background image of the toggle_container. 
Make the background color of the block transparent, and the background 
image of the toggle_container will appear.

That container already has a white background:

  text-align:left;
  width:960px;
}

so imho there is no need to style all the divs inside it:

#container div {background-color:#FF;}

Did you try to *remove* the above rule? Imho it should work just fine
without it.
The only reason I could think you'd need this is if you had a construct
where #container collapses (mostly because of floats), but I see you're
using the last child to clear everything so I don't think you need that
rule...

I'm sorry, but this makes no sense. The parent container has a white
background already, so styling nested DIVs with a white background should
not change anything.
I can kill that rule in firebug without seeing the blue background bleeding
through.

Anyway, keep things the way they are if it works for you.

[css-d] Background image not showing in Firefox Opera etc.

2007-03-18 Thread Joanne
I have a background image that's displaying in IE6 but not firefox or Opera
(haven't tested IE7 or Safari yet).

The background image in question is the background image for div
id=main. It is dark blue for the 150px on the left, and white for the
rest of it.

 

I have uploaded it at www.sparrowdog.com/test.htm

 

This is a slight deviation from my standard stylesheet/html layout, and I'm
not quite sure why the background image isn't displaying.

 

Thanks

 

Joanne

IE7 will display the background. Safari will not.

 I have uploaded it at www.sparrowdog.com/test.htm

The missing background is caused by the fact that floats are not
contained by default in standard compliant browsers. This means that
#main won't expand downwards since there are only floats inside it.

Add a property that will establish a new 'block formatting context'[1]...

#main {display: table;}

...or alternatively...

#main {overflow: hidden;}

* html #main {overflow: visible;}

...and the standard compliant browsers will get the message and expand
to contain floats.

IE/win (all versions) has its 'hasLayout'[2] bug, so it expands no
matter what. We just have to protect older IE/win versions from their
'overflow' bugs if the second alternative is used.

Georg

[css-d] background image not showing up [IE/FF]

2006-11-09 Thread Marcelo Wolfgang
Hi all,

I'm developing a page that I'm having some problems with a background
image being only show behind the first child element and not behind
everything else, in both IE and Firefox

I'm imagining that the reason are because of the floats, but I
couldn't figure out really why this is happening

the page is here:

http://www.mobilciclo.org/cadastro/

the css is here:

http://www.mobilciclo.org/cadastro/mobilciclo.css

the element that has the background image giving me headaches are:

#content-body

I've already check my markup and css at w3c and they both validate (
with only a few warnings on the css )

Please advice

TIA
Grillo

Hi Ed,
So glad to hear that helped. Thanks for letting us know.

  I only get the background image not

 Netscape 4.78 (no Flash)Windows 2000 Professional (background image

 Is the Internet explorer 4.0 with windows 98 not compatible with divs

Yes. CSS layout is problematical at best in those browsers. Also a problem with 
backgrounds in Netscape if the CSS is in a different folder, as the images must 
be specified with respect to the HTML folder, not the CSS. Maybe that's why the 
background does not show up?

Personally, although I have made Netscape 4.x work with CSS in the past,
I don't think it worthwhile any more. What I do is prevent version 4 and older 
browsers seeing my CSS. If the HTML is marked up semantically visitors 
having these old browsers get a perfectly usable page, even if it's plain.

You could also split your styles into two - one for fonts and colors, another
for layout, and hide the layout one from version 4.x browsers.

There are several ways of hiding CSS from old browsers. Using an @import 
would work. My method is to link my style sheets with this media attribute:

media=screen, projection

(I think that any multiple media types will work, if you prefer.)

Cordially,
David

Hi Ed,
Try adding overflow: auto to these #navbar declarations.

Works in Opera (view and edit source; reload from cache).

Hi Ed,
First I did the security check: valid css and valid html?
The css-validator is congratulating - the html-validator is notifying 1 
error (apart from a missing charset definition in the head): there is a 
missing /div. :-)
See result 
http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.villa-corti.com%2Fmenus.htm.

What happens after repairing?

Success and greetings,

[css-d] background image not showing up

2006-09-26 Thread Liz
Hello,

On this page http://www.liztestsitem.com/line/test.html the content div
that contains the left and right column has a background image that should
make a vertical line down the center but it is not showing up in Safari or
Firefox. I need help in making it show. I thought that because the columns
were within the content div it would give it the height to show, but it
doesn't recognize the columns as part of its content.

This is what the background image looks like when I take out the columns and
put text directly in the content div
http://www.liztestsitem.com/line/test2.html

I don't want to put the line as a border on one of the columns because the
length of text will vary between columns on different pages and it might end
up on the shorter one.

Would appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Liz

Re: [css-d] background image not showing up

2006-09-26 Thread Roberto Gorjão
Olá Liz,

You need a div inside the content div (by the way, you have two of this 
one) that pushes its height. My suggestion is:

1- edit the markup so the footer div gets inside the content but after 
the the cols divs...

div id=content
div id=leftColpLorem ipsum ...p/div
div id=rightColpLorem ipsum... /p/div
div id=footerfooter/div
/div

2- edit the footer style rules as follows:

#footer {
 *clear: both;*
 text-align: center;
 *background-color:white;*
}

That's it!

HTH!

Roberto

What is tripping you up is that both the left and right columns are  
floated.  This takes both of the out of the normal document 'flow'  
which leaves #content without any.  There are many ways to solve  
this, but the one you choose may depend on what else is happening on  
the page.  Here are some choices:

#content { float: left; }  /* floating the content makes it expand to  
hold the floated children */

The 'clearfix' method (which you can google for)

Adding a clearing element at the bottom of #content, Zoe has a page  
about that as I recall.  Again, google is your friend.

One of these solutions should get you where you want to go.  Also,  
See this article by Eric Meyer to understand float containment in  
general.  http://www.complexspiral.com/publications/containing-floats/

 What is tripping you up is that both the left and right columns are
 floated.  This takes both of the out of the normal document 'flow'
 which leaves #content without any.  There are many ways to solve
 this, but the one you choose may depend on what else is happening on
 the page.  Here are some choices:
 
 #content { float: left; }  /* floating the content makes it expand to
 hold the floated children */
 
 The 'clearfix' method (which you can google for)
 
 Adding a clearing element at the bottom of #content, Zoe has a page
 about that as I recall.  Again, google is your friend.
 
 One of these solutions should get you where you want to go.  Also,
 See this article by Eric Meyer to understand float containment in
 general.  http://www.complexspiral.com/publications/containing-floats/
 
 Roger,
Thank you for your reply, I will experiment with these methods.

 Olá Liz,
 
 You need a div inside the content div (by the way, you have two of this
 one) that pushes its height. My suggestion is:
 
 1- edit the markup so the footer div gets inside the content but after
 the the cols divs...
 
 div id=content
 div id=leftColpLorem ipsum ...p/div
 div id=rightColpLorem ipsum... /p/div
 div id=footerfooter/div
 /div
 
 2- edit the footer style rules as follows:
 
 #footer {
   *clear: both;*
   text-align: center;
   *background-color:white;*
 }
 
 That's it!
 
 HTH!

[css-d] background image not showing

2006-09-22 Thread Mike
Hi,
I am trying to display an image through a selector.

Here is an extract of the HTML page :

 td  
 %-- does not work --%
 div class=testimage/div
 
%-- this works --%
 %--  img 
src=/etoile/framework/edf/images/nav/etoile_perso.gif/   
 --%  
/td

Here is an extract of the CSS page :

.testimage { background: url(/etoile/framework/edf/images/nav/etoile_perso.gif) 
; }


Does anyone have an idea of what could be wrong ?
Thanks

Well you've got a table data cell with no data in it (and a div with
no height because it has no content, so you can't see any background
image on it).

Re: [css-d] background image not showing

well,
in fact I added a content in my div of course:
  td  
 div class=testimageblablabla/div 

/td
It is still not showing anything.

But I tried with a much smaller picture, and it works.
I am guessing it has to do with the dimensions of the image then, right ?
If yes, how do i set a proper width and a proper height for my background 
image, in my CSS file ?

Thanks

You don't set dimensions of background images in CSS. You can change its 
size in a graphics program, or you can change the dimensions of the div, 
or... Lots of options, so please show us your page so we can give you 
good advice.

Also, to start a new thread, do not reply to an existing message. When 
you do this,
your message gets threaded on to the old thread, which messes up the

and makes it less likely that others will see your message and subsequently
reply to you. You must send a new message with an appropriate and

Thank you for your cooperation and participation.

Thanks Jim/Ian

display:table-caption seems to work - I was having a very strange effect
with display:table. Whole page fell apart but came together after loading! 

That's a new attribute for me to learn though, thanks 

Cheers for the heads up on the other mistakes Ian, I'll go through and fix
those. 

Best Regards,

[css-d] Background image not showing up in IE

2005-09-14 Thread Kenny
I am trying to create a button that can be inabled and disabled. The button is:
 a class=enabledButton id=addnote href=javascript:void(0);
title=ButtonAdd Note/a

with these styles:
.enabledButton,.disabledButton {
background-color:#CC;
text-decoration:none;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:75px 1px;
border:1px solid #00;
display:block;
width:100px;
height:20px;
}
.enabledButton {
color:#00;
}
.enabledButton:hover {
color:#00;
background-color:#FF;
}
.disabledButton {
color:#66;
}
#addnote.enabledButton {
background-image:url(../images/deletenote.gif);
}
#addnote.disabledButton {
background-image:url(../images/deletenote_disabled.gif);
}

I have some JavaScript that swap the class name in order to make the
button appear inabled or disabled. I will have a lot more buttons like
these, so I wanted to be able to use the id to indicate which button
it is and the class to indicate weather it is inabled or disabled.

This image dose note appear in IE in the disabled state, and I think
this has to do with the way I'm selecting the #id.class. It works if I
only select the class, but then I can't distingish witch button gets
witch imageunless I have two class definitions for each image. If
anyone dose know that correct syntax for selecting an element with an
id and a class I'd like to know. If anyone also knows of a way to get
this to work in IE that would be really great.

Thanks, 
Kenny

hi,

I'm having a small problem with a new site in Firefox.

The background image on #inner doesn't show. It's OK in Opera. Other
background images are showing in Firefox.

Can someone spot the error?

Put a border around #inner and I believe you'll see the issue. Both 
leftcol and maincol are floated, so as far as Firefox is concerned 
#inner has 0 height, so no place for the background to show.


Clear them floats!
