[css-d] IE/Win has layout problem

2007-12-21 Thread patrick mattison
Thanks Alan! that cleared it up kind of, but now i'm getting a small  
gap next to the content graphic. It looks as if the background-image:  
url(Images/content_bg_01.gif); is being cut off on the left side. my  
initial reaction would be to give it a width but then we go back to  
the first problem. Any thoughts on why this is happening?

Hello Patrick, IE likes to play tricks to bewilder, change the  
following in these rule sets.

#content {
margin: 0 0 0 262px;
padding: 0;
border: 0;
width: 538px; /* delete triggering hasLayout */
background-image: url(Images/content_bg_01.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: top left;
}

#textarea {
margin: 0px 50px 0 30px; /* change top margin to zero */
padding: 0; /* delete */
padding-top: 85px; /* add pushes "About Us" down */
text-align: left;
}

 >From the special IE stylesheet

#content {margin-left: 0;} /* delete */

The 10px difference as seen in IE is due to the #content div  
having ... "hasLayout" [1]. Basically for most browsers the #content  
divs' left margin of 262px begins at the left edge of the #wrapper  
div [2] but for IE this left margin begins at the right edge of the  
floated #sidebar div, that why margin:0 brought it close. When the  
#content div doesn't have hasLayout IE will behave like the other  
browsers.

BTW, the height given to the #footer div is causing text breakout on  
text resize. You may want to work with this.

[css-d] IE Windows is playing tricks on me!

2007-12-20 Thread patrick mattison
I'm having problems with IE Win rendering my page. Can anyone offer  
me a clue???
The whole content section gets bumped below the menu, so i tried  
adding a style sheet for IE and added:
  #content {margin-left: 0;}

that brought it up to where it's supposed to be except It looks like  
the #content area is about 10px to the left.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

[css-d] Layout problems in IE windows

2006-08-25 Thread patrick mattison
  I'm working on my website, using a mac, and when I view it on IE  
for windows the layout looks screwed up. Also, since I don't have a  
PC and my Virtual PC stopped connecting to the internet after I  
installer OS 10.4 it's difficult for me to trouble shoot. I curse  
IE!  If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it. Thanks.

[css-d] Solved float: left problem in IE Win

2005-08-29 Thread patrick mattison

Thanks Georg for your suggestion, worked like a charm.

Also, I'm having problems validating the "Directions" page because the 
link "Get Directions" has the "&" symbol in the href. W3C says to add 
"amp;" after each "&" however when I do this it still won't validate - 
has anyone had this problem before? or know of another discussion board 
that deals with this?

Thanks

Feed IE/win corrections on both containers, like so:
#sidebar {margin-right: -3px;}
#content {margin-left: 0;}
... using whatever IE/win-only hack you feel comfortable with. I 
recommend 'conditional comments'.

[css-d] [Repost] float: left problem in IE Win

2005-08-29 Thread patrick mattison

Hello everyone!
 Once again I’m having trouble with IE Windows. Here’s the problem: 
When I float the #sidebar left, the container falls bellow the contact 
info. But when I leave out the width of the #footer, as it appears now, 
the container displays where it should be – well almost. There is a gap 
between the #sidebar and #container that won’t go away. At first I 
thought it was the “Three-Pixel Gap” so I applied a –3px margin-right 
to the #sidebar – didn’t work. I also tried any other fixes I could 
find relating to the 3px gap to no avail. So then I decided to try 
positioning  the #sidebar absolutely, but it extended the container 
width by 18px on the right giving the appearance of an 18px right 
boarder. I’ve since gone back to # sidebar {float: left} and eliminated 
the width of the #footer. If anyone can give me a little direction on 
how to eliminate the gap I would appreciate it. I'm supposed to go live 
today.

[css-d] IE offset problem

2005-08-10 Thread patrick mattison
I'm fairly new to CSS and for the most part I really enjoy it, but I'm 
having problems with how IE Windows displays the site and I can't 
figure it out. It seems the #container and #bricks have been offset to 
the right, each greater then the next.  If anyone out there could offer 
any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it. Also feel free to 
critique my code since I'm learning and don't want to get off on the 
wrong foot.

[css-d] IE Win won't display margins correctly

2005-08-03 Thread patrick mattison

I'm sure this is a common problem but I can't seem to figure it out.
in IE for Windows #container and #bricks seem to have an inherent left 
margin. I tried adding an IE style sheet with negative margins but that 
didn't work.


Also, the #footer margin-top -300 isn't being applied in IE Windows.

If anyone could offer a solution or point me to a site that could help 
me I would appreciate it.

Re: [css-d] IE Win Drawing Problems

2005-07-27 Thread patrick mattison
Thanks Michael, your solution worked great for IE Win, but now I have 
issues with the #textBody displaying at the top of the page in IE Mac. 
Any Ideas?

--
Patrick Mattison






Hello, I'm a newbie here and I'm struggling with some IE Win bugs. 1)
the horizontal menu bar in IE Win is off center (it's flushed too far
to the left so that "HOME" hangs almost over the edge) and 2) the
"leather pocket" at the footer doesn't show up at all in IE Win (it 
can

be found as the background image for #main, footer_bg_1.jpg) Any help
would be greatly appreciated.


Hi, Patrick,

IE Win has some issues with inline element dimensions. Since the
navigation is absolutely positioned, and no other heights are being
driven by the height of the navigation, you might want to try floating
the list items instead of inlining them.

For the leather pocket issue, IE also has issues with relatively
positioned elements. Basically, IE's presentation is defined by
determining the layout of its elements. Unfortunately, it starts
choking if it can't figure out how elements are layed out after a
certain level. This is commonly referred to by its property name,
"hasLayout" -- you can google it for more information about this. Long
story short, relatively positioning causes more layout issues than
normal. You can solve this partway by giving a height to IE using the
Holly Hack.[1] This gives IE some layout and makes the pocket appear,
but pushes the content underneath the navigation. You can then get
around that by giving the textBody div the same amount of top padding
as the height of the navigation, 42px, again only for IE -- something
like

* html #textBody {
  padding-top: 42px;
}

HTH,

Michael

[css-d] Disappears and Reappears in IE

2005-07-25 Thread patrick mattison
I’ve been working on one of my first CSS/XHTML sites and came across 
two IE bugs that have been puzzling me. When IE Win displays the home 
page, the section “join our email list” doesn’t display correctly, it 
disappears and partially reappears when I scroll back and forth. Also 
In IE Mac the Margin-Top seems to have collapsed.
