Re: [css-d] Floats not floating in IE

Hi David, I tried your way, too. Works great. Don't know why I didn't think about floating BOTH divs. I guess I was thinking of just floating one from the other. There are many ways to solve layout issues. :) I just wish I knew if there are "standard" ways to do basic things like this. (wh

Hi Andy, Ok, I'm completely lost now. I'm sorry I'm not getting this. Here is what I have for #header_right and #header_left; #header_left { float: left; background-color: green; width: 171px; height: 168px; } #header_right { background-color: red; /*

Hi Andy, Thanks for the reply. I've taken away the width attribute for #header_right, and that brings the div back up, but now there is a small break between the two divs. They should be flush. Is that where the negative margin comes in on #header_left? I tried putting in a -1px and -3px m

Mark: This is quite an interesting case. Aparrently, applying "hasLayout" to the #header_right element is causing a rendering bug in IE that is adding extra space between the #header_left and #header_right elements. See the reference below for a description of "hasLayout" and its effects in IE. S

Hi all, So in my quest to use less absolute positioning (why, because I wanted to try it.) I've come up against some floats not floating next to each other. I've written a short test page here, and the css is in page. http://www.tonedeafstudios.com/test/test21.html And here is the very sho

Jack was kind enough to send me the oversight on my part. I made the form selector add an id to make it more specific to ignore the form(s) on the home page. Thanks Jack! One last item I can't seem to nail on this layout is in IE 5 (not 5.5). In IE 5 the navigation is pushed to the right so that

[css-d] Floats not floating in IE

2005-04-28 Thread Bert Mahoney
Hi, I'll get right to it. I have a page where 3 divs are floated left within a containing div that is set as a block level element. When I test this on a PC, in Firefox I'm seeing what I want—the three boxes align horizontally. However in IE 6, 5.5, 5.0 these divs are stacking vertically. Here
