Re: [css-d] Navigation woes
Hi all, I looked at http://www.ryanbrill.com/floats.htm which was related to the subject: Is this possible at all... and noticed that the layout was exactly what I was trying to achieve, so I took Georg's advice and modified as required. I've ended up solving my navigation woes... this layout made it easier to track where the problem was as well. Many thanks Georg!

The click to enlarge is meant to sit underneath and the image is meant to have padding: 5px but with the navigation issue I haven't really looked into it. Any ideas please?

Some problems with IE in this menu. - Remove all rules related with .header, .box, .box-width, and replace them with: .header { float: left; /* contains the floating boxes */ width: 100%; /* prevents shrink-wrapping */ background-color: #fff; } .box, .box-wide { margin: 9px 9px 0 9px; padding: 5px; font-size: 85%; font-weight: 600; } .box { float: right; width: 100px; text-align: center; background-color: #FBFBF1; } .box-wide { float: left; width: 185px; text-align: left; } /* clickable link area */ .box a, .box-wide a { display: block; } /* line-break after img, or keep the br */ .box a img, .box-wide a img { display: block; } - Insert a Conditional Comment at the end of the head section !--[if IE] style /* IE6 fixes */ .box, .box-wide { display: inline; /* doubled float margin bug */ overflow: hidden; /* stops expanding of the box */ } /* IE6-7 */ .box a, .box-wide a { position: relative; /* allows for leaving the overflown box */ } /style ![endif]-- /head - Remove the br after the images (optional). Hope that helps. Is click to enlarge meant to sit next to the image?

Re: [css-d] Navigation Woes
Dear All Many thanks to Don and Els! I have played with the ideas a bit further and have now ended up with this. I feel the site is beginning to take shape and provides an excellent building platform. I am a bit worried that the header nav still drops down.

Re: [css-d] Navigation Woes
From: Richard Brown [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am a bit worried that the header nav still drops down. Could folks check this for me please? http://www.theoldcoachworks.org.uk/ http://www.theoldcoachworks.org.uk/wp-content/themes/coachworks/ style.css The problem you're having in IE is that you've encountered the IE doubled float-margin bug [1]. The usual fix is to give the element a non-sensical {display: inline;}. Even if the .out divs weren't already (display:) block elements, they take on that property by virtue of being floated and do not need {display: block;} to be declared. Therefore, you'll need to change your display property in the following selector to overcome the margin bug. This fix is not likely to bother other browsers, but certainly could be hidden from them if you so choose. .out { display: inline; /* change this */ background: #bbb; border: 1px solid #ddd; float: left; margin: 1em; } I hope that helps, ~holly [1] http://www.positioniseverything.net/explorer/doubled-margin.html __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

Re: [css-d] Navigation Woes
Richard Brown wrote: I am trying to build a navigation for this site: http://www.theoldcoachworks.org.uk/ Following up on my earlier answer where your menu was dropping ... it is a total width issue that triggers the problem in ie6. You can easily fix the width issue: #sidebar{ /*width: 200px;*/ width: 180px; } I also added a text align to that in my example to make it match in ff and ie. Seems to fix the dropping menu ... I updated my demo: http://bestfoot.com/temp/temp3.html There is still a text jump that needs to be fixed on hover over the links. __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
