Re: [css-d] IE7 issue / divs overlapping ... some progress

2009-08-21 Thread David Gilden
Alan, [  the list :) ]

Thanks for your suggestions,

Slowly the page is coming together...

http://www.coraconnection.com/web/pals/pals_home-4products.htm


I going to try this approach 
in the head of my 'htm' page

!--[if IE 7.0]
link rel=stylesheet href=css/ie7fix.css type=text/css charset=utf-8 /
![endif]--


/*ie7fix.css  IE7 Hack */
#productArea {
top:120px; 
}


 BTW, you have a div that is doing nothing (it was floating right). I 
 see that you have thrown everything at the CSS to repair the damaged 
  caused by the inline styles. The major changes in the CSS is this.

Where is this? A line number would help :)-


Cool idea, tried that but it messed up the footer below

#middleColumn  {
   margin-bottom:-130px; /* Added */
}

#productArea {
   /*top:-130px; Deleted */
}

note that I am also using negative values for top here as well... probably a 
bad practice.

#footer { 
position:relative;
width: 1018px;  
margin: 18px auto; 
top:-140px;
text-align:center;
font-size:8pt;
line-height:1.5em;
}



Thanks for the link! I will add to my 'delicious' css links
http://css-class.com/articles/explorer/floats/floatandcleartest1.htm


 My question for you. I have outlined (red dots) and layered 
  div#middleColumn to show it layered above the lower content. Why does 
  the box show an extra 100px of space below the div#blueCallout? There is 
  no reason why this should be happening.

http://css-class.com/x/pal.htm

Agreed this should #not# be happening

another issue is the second and fourth [from right to left] product boxes left 
image 
being 'forced' down... they should all be similar to the box with the iPhone.

Finally has anyone build a search box like one @ Apple.com?

This project is driving me crazy!

Hello Paul,

If you're asking for help with a problem, then remember this: A 
description of your problem is good. A URL to a page showing your 
problem is much, much better.

Hello Dave,

Maybe this is a little closer.

http://css-class.com/x/pal.htm


Firstly I removed most of the inline style (this should be in the CSS).


div style=float:right;
   div class=productBox style=float:left; margin-right:1em;
 img src=images/trakPAL.png style=position: relative; top:0; 
left:20px; margin: 1em; /
 img src=images/trackPalMap.png  style=float:left; clear:right; 
position: relative; top:4px; left:4px; /
   /div

   div class=productBox style=float:right;
 img src=images/emotiPAL.png style=position: relative; top:0; 
margin: 1em; /
 img src=images/palsIcon.png style=float:left; clear:right; 
position: relative; top:4px; left:4px; /
   /div
/div


Leaving this.

div
   div class=productBox
 img src=images/trakPAL.png /
 img src=images/trackPalMap.png /
   /div

   div class=productBox
 img src=images/emotiPAL.png /
 img src=images/palsIcon.png /
   /div
/div


BTW, you have a div that is doing nothing (it was floating right). I 
see that you have thrown everything at the CSS to repair the damaged

#middleColumn  {
   margin-bottom:-130px; /* Added */
}

#productArea {
   /*top:-130px; Deleted */
}

The IE7- bug(s) you encountered are demo'd here.

[css-d] IE7 issue / divs overlapping

2009-08-18 Thread David Gilden
Greetings,

I am trying to create the following layout using only divs

http://www.coraconnection.com/web/css-comp.gif

The page looks fine on Mac FireFox / Safari.

However the product area is overlapping the top content area wrapper in IE7 (on 
XP)!
It does not break at the  productArea div!


Here is some the CSS.

#mainContent { 
width: 1018px; 
height: 330px; 
border-top: 2px solid  #3274a8;
display:block;
background: url(../images/contentAreaGrad.png) repeat-x 0 0; 
margin:18px auto; 
padding:1px;
}

#leftColumn  {
width: 352px;
float: left;


 #productArea {
padding:1px;
width: 1018px; 
position:relative;
text-align:center;
top:-120px; 
margin:18px auto;  
height: 100%;  
display:block;
clear:both;
}

.productBox {
clear:right;
vertical-align:top;
width: 240px; 
height: 100%; 
display:inline-block; 
background: url(../images/productBoxGrad.png)  repeat-x 0 0; 
overflow: auto;
}

#productArea .productBox  p { padding-left:4px; margin:1em;   }

#productArea .productBox img {margin-right:1em; vertical-align:top;}


Suggestions are welcomed!!!
