Re: [css-d] text jumped down (w/url)

2011-10-18 Thread Kim Brooks Wei

Michael, thanks for the pointers, they were very helpful!

This isn't my site, just one I'm fixing and I don't have a lot of 
experience with table layouts so didn't immediately spot that the 
content of those nav columns was separated from its graphics. What a 
peculiar thing to do.


Didn't notice re the 'corporate mails' image either, so thanks for 
this too. Did notice that the link for it is a dead link (to a web 
page, not an email either). Another strange thing.


My job was merely to style the Events box in that bottom nav section 
of the home page. The corrected version is here now

Thanks again. All best,
Kimi

Kimi,
1. Your webpage is in a layout using tables. (This isn't the most
desirable way to layout a website, usually tables are used to show
data information.)

When I think of a website layout, I usually try to think of an Excel
sheet. You know how when you change the height of one cell, it changes
the height of the entire row?

This is what's happening with your text. The text in the far column,
News and Events, is in the same row as the images. The text
explaining the images is in the next row. The News and Events text
is making the height of the entire row taller. This moves the
explanation of the images farther down.

So to fix this, just move the information explaining the images into
the same td as the images.

2. You may have to look on your server where all the files for the
website are stored. It may be in a different place, may have been
deleted, or never existed before.

Side Note: I noticed that the hover image for Corporate Mails was
not showing up.

Good luck with the site!

Sincerely,
Michael Fokken

 Hi People,

 1   I don't see what's pushing text down below corresponding navigation
 pictures on bottom of this page http://is.gd/6NBQaD. I added the News and
 Events column to the right with a list inside it. How can I get the type in
 each column to drop in just below the pictures like it should do?


  2   Do you know where the master.css file is located?

[css-d] text jumped down

2011-10-17 Thread Kim Brooks Wei

Hi People,

I don't see why the text jumped down below bottom navigation 
pictures. I added the News and Events column to the right with a list 
inside it. How can I fix it?


Do you know where that master.css file is located?

Hi People,
