[css-d] Drop down menu pushing content down
Hi guys, I hope someone can help with a little problem. A new website I am designing looks perfect in Firefox 18 on Linux and in Safari. But it's not right in Opera on Linux, Chrome on Windows and probably several others. URL - www.integra-server.co.uk/lnp/wb/ I think the problem is the drop-down nav menu on the left. The sub uls expand the width of the top level ul to accommodate them and this is pushing the main content down. If anyone can suggest a solution it would be appreciated. regards, Mike -- Integra Web Design Braehead, Rhynie, AB54 4LS 01464 861535 __ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] 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/

On my windows desktop computer it looks ok in Chrome but not in IE 9.
Could it be something to do with how different browsers interpret the box
model? (some count the padding as part of the width and some don't). If
floated content is too wide for the container it gets pushed down.
Someone helped me with this issue on here recently and gave me this code to
put in the css to fix it.
* {
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box; }

Thanks, Laura, but it doesn't solve the problem. In fact, it reduces the
widths of the boxes and makes it look worse.

Im wondering if it might be a float/width issue, maybe? I was only able to
see the issue in IE9. Does adjusting the width/margins of the nav and/or
#content help?
Also, are you telling the browsers what wrapper/wrapper is and how to
render it?
Just some thoughts...

Re: [css-d] Drop down menu pushing content down
Mike, I took a look at your site in FF 19.0.2 and Chrome 25.0.1364.172 m both on Win7 and they look identical to me. Could be more specific about where the problem is?
