How do you keep bottom columns from overlapping another div

I am using DW CS3 and am following instructions on making first web page everything is fine till I get to positioning the columns at the bottom of page when i try and set a css rule to position left column the column overlaps the previous div the instructions i am using are from adobe http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/first_cs4_website_pt2_08.html here is the code that I have up to the point that I put in the rule for the left column for the design page   
<div id="container">
   <div id="banner"></div>
   <div id="main_image></div>
   <div id="left_column">Content for id"left_column" Goes Here</div>
   <div id="column_container">
       <div id="right_column">Content for id"right_column" Goes Here</div>
       <div id="center_column">Content for id"center_column" Goes Here</div>
   </div>
</div>
On the CSS page that is attached to it the code is as follows:
#container  {
width:  968 px;
background:  FFFFFF;
margin:  0 auto:
padding-left:  10px:
padding-right:  10px:
overflow:  hidden;
#banner  {
background-image:  url(images/banner.gif);
height:  100px;
width:  968px;
#main_image  {
background-image:  url(images/main.jpg);
height:  376px;
width:  968px;
and then I am suppossed to do a box with width of 316 and float left when I do this it floats left and goes down in size but also goes up into the top of my main image why is this happening?

Zabberwan is correct  :-)   If the basic css is not written correctly, the page will not display as intended.  You are using a colon (:) instead of a semi-coon (;) to close off the style rule... in addition, the #hash tag was missing from the background rule.
This is what your code should look like before proceeding with the next step of the tutorial:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<style type="text/css">
#container {
    width:  968px;
    background: #FFFFFF;
    margin:  0 auto;
    padding-left: 10px;
    padding-right: 10px;
    overflow: hidden;
#banner {
    background-image: url(images/banner.gif);
    height:  100px;
    width:  968px;
#main_image {
    background-image: url(images/main.jpg);
    height: 376px;
    width: 968px;
</style>
</head>

  • How do you set one column equal to another?

    how do i?
    at cell B2 i would like to enter a number. in column C, i would like to have the same value for c2 through c11 cells. so, c2 through c11 i would like the value .2 in each cell. in column D, i would like the values found when columns B and C are multiplied. i would like the value of B3 to be the value found in D2, b4 to be the value found in D3, b5 to be value found in D4, etc.
    is that possible to do using formula for columns? or something, well short of hand coding each cell.
    thanks,
    g.

    let me try to clear up what i was asking, but no guarantees here.
    i was trying to create a spreadsheet that would allow me to calculate the interest on an initial amount of money. i was a little frustrated when i wrote the post. i didn't understand how to do it using a construct like (D2:D20) = (B2:B20) * (C2:C20), which as far as i can tell is incorrect syntax, grammar, etc., just wrong. really wrong!
    i'm not an accountant, as you can ready tell. i think though this is called simple interest.
    ok, here's what i was looking to do, by way of an example:
    given $1000 and an interest rate/ or rate of growth of 20% annually, calculate the amount of money one would have after 25 years. compounded annually.
    $1000 * 0.20 = 200
    $1200 * 0.20 = 240
    $1440 * 0.20 = 288
    $1728 * 0.20 = 345.60
    $26,623.33 * 0.20 = 5,326.67
    i realized what asked for was not this, well after i had posted and tried my post request by hand. so
    i really understand the confusion.
    i sure there is a built-in function for this, but i don't think i would have recognized it, because i don't know the financial terminology.
    using the copying and pasting method, i built the first two line above and decided it had to be a better way, solving this kind of problem is what spreadsheet programs do... i copied B3 to cell B4, i copied cell C3 to cell C4, and i copied D3 to D4. copied and pasted. to my surprise, of course, because i had not read the manual completely, it copied the function to the cells and used the correct last values. (confusing here, but i hope you follow) after seeing that, i copied B4 and selected B5 - B21 and pasted, B4 to those selected B cells. i copied C4 and selected C5 - C21 and pasted, C4 to those C cells i had selected. that put 0.20 into each. i copied D4 and selected D5 - D21 and pasted to those selected D cells.
    i seems to have worked.
    i do have a question though. let's say instead of using 0.02 in column C i used 1.2. this would give me the amount of money i would have without having to add the initial to the interest made.
    1000 * 1.2 = 1200
    how do i assign the value, 1200, to another cell without using the copy and paste method? or is copying and pasting the way to do these kinds of things.
    thanks everyone,
    g.

  • How do you keep strokes, etc, from changing when copying & pasting?

    I am sure there is a simple solution to this problem, but I cannot figure it out and could use some help.  I have a graphic in one InDesign document (ID CS4 - using Windows XP Pro) and when I try to copy and paste it into another ID doc, it completely changes the strokes and fills.  It usually does the opposite of what is in the graphic (this happens with every graphic I try this with).  So if I have a circle that is stroke only, when I copy and paste it, it comes in with no stroke and a fill.  I have to use these graphics between documents frequently and some of them are complicated, making it difficult to spend the time correcting this problem.  When I tried adding the graphic to a library, it did the same thing.  It also changed it when I moved one page to another document.  Anyone have any ideas why this might be happening and how to make it stop? 
    Thanks,
    GS

    Thanks for the reply.  While it wasn't the preferences, I did find a link on the link you included in your answer that led me to the solution.
    The problem was conflicting object styles.  The solution was to load the object style from the doc that included the graphic into the doc that I wanted to place the graphic in.  Then when I copy & paste, the graphic comes in perfectly.  The only problem is if there are other graphics in that doc, but now that I know there is an issue with object styles, I can pay attention to it as I design.
    I can always count on the forum for great answers!

  • How do you keep junk mail from appearing even after I have hit the "junk" button when it appeared the first time?

    I have several email accounts that come to my mac.   When junk appears I hit the junk button.   Does it take awhile to train the junk or is there a way to set up mail so that it automatically goes to junk and does not appear at all in my inbox?
    It's so time consuming to get rid of this stuff.
    Thanks for any suggestions.
    Grammynancy

    Hello, it does take time to train it.
    You can setup rules if there's any constancy, like I find that 99.999% of mail from yahoo is junk, so I have a Rule setup to just get rid of it permanently, I never see them at all...
    But you could have it be If Subject contains Ciagra, Perform the following functions, Mark as Junk... or whatever.

  • When playing songs in iTunes playlist, How do you keep the next song from jumping to next song? I am working on song list updating other tracks info and then the next song starts and I lose my spot in song list?

    When playing songs in iTunes playlist, How do you keep the next song from jumping to next song? I am working on song list updating other tracks info and then the next song starts and I lose my spot in song list?

    Max OSX 10.6.8, iTunes 11.1
    I had a similar problem: I wanted to synch my playlist to my iphone. I like to have my playlist sorted by genre. But under each genre, albums are not sorted by the track numbers. This is a problem, especially when I am listening to club mixes when the DJ smoothly transitions from 1 track sequentially to the next one. Under the properties of each audio file, the Track Numbers and Disc Numbers are already there.
    My perfect solution was to turn On Sorting - Sort Album under View>Show View Options. Then, select all the songs in that album (Shift click, Cmd click, etc) , and Edit multiple item information (Cmd I). You will see Info-Video-Sorting-Options buttons. Click on Sorting. Then, under Sort Album, Enter the name of the album. Then OK.
    You should now have the playlist sorted by Genre, then each album individually sorted by track numbers. On your playlist you should see, if you scroll right, the column added called "Sort Album".
    Hope this helps.

  • From two given tables, how do you fetch the values from two columns using values from one column(get values from col.A if col.A is not null and get values from col.B if col.A is null)?

    From two given tables, how do you fetch the values from two columns using values from one column(get values from col.A if col.A is not null and get values from col.B if col.A is null)?

    Hi,
    Use NVL or COALESCE:
    NVL (col_a, col_b)
    Returns col_a if col_a is not NULL; otherwise, it returns col_b.
    Col_a and col_b must have similar (if not identical) datatypes; for example, if col_a is a DATE, then col_b can be another DATE or it can be a TIMESTAMP, but it can't be a VARCHAR2.
    For more about NVL and COALESCE, see the SQL Language manual: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e26088/functions119.htm#sthref1310
    I hope this answers your question.
    If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) for all tables involved, and also post the results you want from that data.
    Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.

  • How can I keep my child from UNBLOCKING contacts or numbers I have blocked? I know in restrictions when you disable account changes at least on ios 6,this greyed out the iMessage button so the kids couldn't deactivate their text feature.

    Here's the issue.  Kids got themselves into some trouble on iPods.  We set all restrictions any turned off iMessage etc, which I noticed they can't turn back on bc it's gray with the don't allow account changes set.  BUT, it still allows Wi-Fi to be turned on and off!  How can I disable them being able to turn that on wo asking me??  In ios 7, the blocking feature, fabulous, BUT, how can I keep the kids from UNBLOCKING numbers I have blocked?  What I am looking to do actually is allow my kids to be able to text family but block everyone else.  And ask me to turn on wi fi.  How and can this even be done?  Right now my d text is turned off completely.  And she knows the inside and out of her device so she can turn wi fi on herself.  On vacation she entered the wi fi code of our condo and so I did forget network, which didn't work and wi fi kept connecting anyway wo requiring password again!  HELP!  Thanks :)  Also, they have iPods now but am asking these questions based on them getting our 4s's with ios 7.

    TeresaBoo, I empathize with your dilemma and have a similar problem. I'm trying desperately to keep my teenage daughter away from a controlling and abusive boyfriend. Of course, she is in denial and thinks it's love. Sure, I can block text messages through our wireless provider, but iMessages run on an independent network. I can block a phone number from iMessaging on her phone, but she can unblock it just as easily. I wish there was some way for parents to create a password to protect settings. Don't let negative comments get you down. Honestly, if someone can't relate to your question or offer help, why are they even bothering to comment??

    You asked...
    quote:
    Is there a way to shrink the application you're capturing so it
    fits within a given capture window rather than requiring scrolling,
    or would I have to go back to the application developers for that?
    (I realize that would shrink the size of everything on the screen,
    but in some cases, that would be worth it to be able to show a
    window without scrolling.
    If, by "shrink" ... you mean by using the AppSizer, the
    answer is "not really". You can configure AppSizer to a defined
    size, then with the mouse pointer double-arrowed on the "edge" of a
    window, right-click and your window-size selections will appear in
    the AppSizer "list" (that you set up) and can be selected there.
    But there is no re-scaling of the window contents, if that is
    what you mean, so the smaller window may now require scrolling.
    But keep in mind that if you use the recording option for
    "Software Simulation" > "Custom Size", you can then snap the
    application window to that size...

  • How can you keep the highest iphone 4s Video quality the same when exporting it from iMovie.

    How can you keep the highest iphone 4s Video quality the same when exporting it from iMovie.

    InDesign's PDF export engine does not transcode your videos, they are embedded exactly as they were in the original file. The Flash Player runtime which displays video inside PDF files may not show a perfect match to Quicktime etc. because most video playback tools aren't designed for a color-calibrated workflow, but they should be close.
    The playback quality (blocking and aliasing) will be affected if the clip is not playing at 100% (screen pixels != video pixels) and in PDFs with the standard video player widget, that will only ever happen when you use 'floating window' mode. PDF pages have physical dimensions, so viewing them at "100%" does not make them match screen pixels.
    If you don't mind the video clip being smaller than the media annotation in which it's playing, then use my free upgrade to the Acrobat playback widget - VideoPlayerX - which maintains 1:1 pixel scale until the page is zoomed out too far for it to fit. You can install the widget into InDesign so it's used by default when exporting.

  • How do you keep in image/photo from sliding throughout a movie on iMovie?

    I'm creating an audio movie using a picture as a background, but there is one problem. As soon as I hit play, the song begins to play while the picture slowly starts moving in any direction.
    How do I keep the image from moving, rather staying motionless as in Windows Movie Maker. I tried turning off the Ken Crops effect to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

    Select the photo. Click on the Rotate, Crop, Ken Burns Tool. Instead of Ken Burns, choose FIT or CROP. Fit will letterbox, Crop will fill the screen by cutting of the edges.
    You can also go into Project Properties and set the default action to Fit or Crop instead of Ken Burns. Then any additional photos you add will be imported the way you want them.
