Quick help with css display in IE7
Hi, I haven't been on this forum in ages - I have a slight display glitch would love some help with:
http://magma.ie/magmablog-html/index.html
It looks great in the latest and greatest browser (IMHO!): - firefox 3.5.6
http://cl.ly/17cD
but IE7 pops the search field in the sidebar off to the right, at least, according to browsershots.org
http://cl.ly/1A1f
Thanks, H
It looks OK in IE8 but IE7 is having trouble with the #Sidebar width.

I guess I am "old school" in that I have always used tables
to lay out my web pages. I decided I must learn to do it with CSS,
but I'm having a terrible time (and it shouldn't be so hard!). I
understand how to define the styles, add divs, etc. Here's what I'm
having trouble with:
How do I specify the normal page width to be 800 pixels,
however I want it to be relative to the browser (i.e., 100% of 800
pixels).
I understand the "float" tag, but if I have a right-hand
sidebar, I can't seem to get the text to the left (in a div called
"maincontent") to stop at the sidebar and wrap to the next line. I
tried specifying "Hidden" as my textbook suggests, but that has no
effect.
I can easily do all of this with tables, so do I really need
to abandon them?
Thanks!Hi Jane,
I'll try to answer all your questions, then a tip or two to
stop the main
content from dropping when the browser window size is
reduced.
- " I didn't realize that
margin-top: 0px;
margin-right: auto;
is not the same as margin: 0px auto;
That's right.
margin: 0px auto; is actaully saying make the top margin 0,
the right margin
auto, the bottom margin 0 and the left margin auto.
It's just CSS shorthand.
For example, you might have:
margin-top: 10px;
margin-right: 20px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
margin-left:15px;
You could just use margin: {10px 20px 5px 15px;}
Think of a clock to remember the directions.
12:00 top, 3:00 right, 6:00 bottom, 9:00 left.
If any of the values are the same, you can shorten it more.
For example, if top is 10, right is 20, bottom is 5 and left
is 20, it's
margin: {10px 20px 5px;}
If the 4th location (left) is missing a value, it makes it
the same as what
you have for right.
If top and bottom are 10px, and left and right are 20px,
it's:
margin {10px 20px;}
If the last two positions ( bottom and left vlaues ) are
missing, then it
will use the top value for the bottom, and the right value
for the left.
What auto right and left is doing is subtracting your content
width (the
container width) from the browser window width, and then
dividing the
remainder in 2 and applying each value to each side of the
container.
-"I found that they all took on the font of the maincontent
and I had to fix
them
individually. "
The only text that should be Time is the text in your main
content, where
you have that font defined. Everything else should be Arial
if you define
the body as such. I'll post a link at the end of this.
- "I put my bold sentence (Friendship, Fun, etc.) in h1, but
I had to change
the
color & size, so that added another style element. "
You don't need to give the h1 a class. You can actually just
style the h1
tag:
h1 {
margin: 10px 10px 2px;
font-size: larger;
color: #941238;
You can only use h1 once on a page.
You can use h2, h3, h4, etc, as many times as you would like,
and you can
style these just like the h1 style above.
- "I don't quite understand the .rightsidebar p { and
container p{
I am assigning the spacing to the <p> tag? What exactly
is that doing?"
That is saying, give all the <p> tags inside the
rightsidebar container the
follwing style.
So, in this example:
.rightsidebar p {
font-size: 18px;
margin: 2px 10px;
it's saying give all the <p> tags in this container a
size of 18 and margin
of 2px top and bottom, and 10px left and right.
It's a lot easier than giving a class to every <p> tag
- "I also don't quite understand the .clear {
Why not just choose clear:both on the next section <div
class="footer">"
You could, if the footer was in the container. It just needs
to be the final
element before the close of a container that contains the
float(s).
-Do you use the <div class="container"> technique all
the time?
Yes, most of the time. I usually put everything in it, and
use the
margin:0px auto; to center it.
That way, I don't have to try to get a number of different
elements to align
with the right and left sides by applying values to all of
them, which can
get tricky quickly.
-"If you'll indulge me one more question, I wonder if it's
possible to put a
graphic (say, of a putting green) underneath my
rightsidebar? I would want
the sidebar to lay on top of the putting green for an
interesting artistic
touch.
Yes, you can give that div a background image. You just need
to make the div
the same size as the image so you see it all (or vice-versa).
Now, to make that maincontent not drop like it does you can
remove the width
in the CSS. Now it will expand over to the left edge of the
rightsidebar.
You can control how close it gets by giving the right sidebar
a bigger left
margin. The point is, with no width assigned, the maincontent
will shrink
down to the longest word in it before it drops.
Here's what it looks like:

Let me know if you have any questions.
Take care,
Tim

Help with CSS rule cross platform browser compatibility
I am an advanced beginner website designer.
The website I need help with is www.sprungtheatre.com
I designed this site on a PC machine. Each page has a
different CSS Background Image rule. The only rule I have set is
image and the "non-repeat." I have not set rules for its placement.
Each of these images had a feather effect applied to it in
Illustrator so the image would fade into the black background. This
works fine on Windows machines in IE and Firefox.
However, on Macs, the left-hand side of the image is chopped
off. Which is to say, it appears if the feathered edge has been cut
off and the image ends abruptly.
Is there any way to fix this problem?
My only guess is that the following my be happening:
The CSS Background Image rule is applied to a nested table
that is editable in a template. I'm thinking that the Mac browswers
are moving the image to the upper left of the overall, "poppa"
table in which the editable region is nested, cutting off that part
of the image that appears in the non-editable region of the "poppa"
table and showing that part of it that appears in the nested,
editable table. I hope that makes sense. Would applying the
placement rules help this? If not, what might?
Many thanks,
JonDon't use a fixed background image.
Sorry to break the news but the code is hidous for an
advanced beginner.
Youre sure to run into much trouble unless you are preapred
to take
some time out and learn this stuff correctly.
Using layout mode and spliting and merging tables into all
sorts of
shapes is a seriously bad method and one you should quickly
move away
from for the sake of your own sanity.

Hi all...
I'm facing a nasty problem connecting an external crt display to my MacBook Pro.
First here's the setup:
-Two MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz
-G4 Cube 450MHz
-iBook G3 800MHz
-CRT DPRO750SB 17" (Nec-Mitsubishi)
-CRT AT897D-1 17" (Formac)
-Problem:
I used to connect the DPRO750SB to one MBP with the Apple's DVI/VGA adapter and everything was fine but now the display doesn't light up anymore.
Furthermore, trying to boot with the display hooked up make the computer crash during startup.
-Clues:
The display and its VGA cable seems OK since there is no problem with the G4 Cube (VGA to VGA) nor the iBook (mini-DVI/VGA).
I have no problem using the Formac Display with both MBP (DVI/VGA).
The DPRO750SB icc profile don't show up anymore in the "Displays" Preference Pane.
I'm able to get the DPRO working sometimes by plug the Formac in, unplug it, then plug the DPRO in.
(in this case, the "Displays" Pref Pane says it's the Formac).
I'm really lost now...
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks
FabriceWell BF1942 and 3D mark both run fine, stable, no glitches and run at the size they are supposed to. Does anyone have any suggestions? PLEASE HELP!

Need Help with Address Display
I need help with APEX.
Here's my situation:
I have a report that displays brief employee information. Among the information displayed is the Address. Right now, it's display as:
Mr X
Employee Id
Accounting Department
Address 1
Mr X
Employee Id
Accounting Department
Address 2
I would like it to display
Mr X
Employee Id
Accounting Department
Address 1
Address 2
1) I have thought of using the Break functionality; however, the function only allows break at column 1, 2, 3. As you can see Address starts at column 4. Also, Address has a few columns; Address Line 1, Address Line 2, City, State, Zipcode.
2) Stragg functions - I'm not sure how to implement it since it has more than 1 columns.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
AndrewThe example I gave you, using analytic functions is a simple one.
Now, you are saying:
1. some of the employees may have two adresses?
2. if this is the case, your employee appears in the report twice?
3. you don't want his name, employee id and accounting department to appear twice?
4. only his address has to be displayed?
If the answer to all the questions is yes, this kind of query will help you. I repeat:
SELECT CASE
WHEN LAG (employee_id) OVER (ORDER BY employee_id) =
employee_id
THEN NULL
ELSE employee_name
END employee_name,
CASE
WHEN LAG (employee_id) OVER (ORDER BY employee_id) =
employee_id
THEN NULL
ELSE employee_id
END employee_id,
CASE
WHEN LAG (employee_id) OVER (ORDER BY employee_id) =
employee_id
THEN NULL
ELSE accounting_department
END accounting_department,
street, postal_code, city, state, country
FROM your_employees_table;Give it a try.

Help with XML, display data on swipe/click
Hello.
I am trying to create a moibile app that displays XML data. It's basically a phone book. I want the data to change when swiped. I can get the data in just fine. I can get it to display fine. I am not seeing the correct image first, however. I think it's a problem with my imagenum variable.
Then, I want to change what is displayed when the user clicks/swipes on the screen. How do I do that?

Help with Conditional Display and Validation
Version 4.1.1.00.23
Hello,
I'm having a difficult time with a conditional display and validation I'm hoping someone can help with.
Requirements:
When the Start Date (Datepicker) and/or End Date (Datepicker) change then display the Change Reason (Select List) and Change Description (Textbox)
If the page is saved without entering a Change Reason display a validation error message that the Change Reason cannot be empty (NULL)
What I've tried
Create a Dynamic Action on the Start Date
Event: Change
Selection Type:Item(s)
Items(s): P51_START_DATE
Condition: none
True Action Section:
Action: Show
Fire on Page Load: Checked
Show all page items on the same line: No
Affected Items Section:
Selection Type:Item(s)
Item(s): P51_CHANGE_REASON,P51_CHANGE_DESC
I've also created a Dynamic Action with similar settings for the P51_END_DATE.
I created a Validation for the P51_CHANGE_REASON as Function Returning Error Text:
DECLARE
v_start_date work_items.start_date%TYPE;
v_end_date work_items.end_date%TYPE;
BEGIN
SELECT start_date
,end_date
INTO v_start_date
,v_end_date
FROM work_items
WHERE work_items_id = :P51_WORK_ITEMS_ID;
IF ( (v_start_date != TO_DATE(:P51_START_DATE,'DD-MON-YYYY') OR v_end_date != TO_DATE(:P51_END_DATE,'DD-MON-YYYY') ) AND
:P51_CHANGE_REASON IS NULL ) THEN
RETURN 'Change Reason must have a value';
END IF;
END;
The Issue
I tried to create another Dynamic Action to hide the P51_CHANGE_REASON and P51_CHANGE_DESC fields on page load, but when either of the date fields are changed and the validation is fired the P51_CHANGE_REASON and P51_CHANGE_DESC are hidden again.
There are two buttons to submit the page: 'SAVE' will submit the page and stay on the page and 'SAVE_CHANGES' will submit the page and branch to the previous page (which is a report with EDIT buttons to edit the record).
I can't get the page load Dynamic Action to NOT fire when the validation is fired.
I hope this is clear and if not what information can I provide?
Thanks,
JoePhil,
Thank you for looking at this.
Yes if the Change Reason is NULL when the edit page is displayed then the Change Reason and Change Description fields are hidden. If the Start Date (Datepicker) and/or End Date (Datepicker) change then display the Change Reason (Select List) and Change Description (Textbox). If the page is saved without entering a Change Reason display a validation error message that the Change Reason cannot be empty (NULL).
The problem I'm having is that if no Change Reason is entered and the page is saved thereby firing the validation the Change Reason and Change Description fields are hidden again (because of the On-Load Dynamic Action to hide them). So now the user can't put in a Change Reason...unless they change one of the date fields again which isn't going to be accepted.
Is there a way to determine if a validation error was fired and be able to use that on the On-Load Dynamic Action to hide the two fields? Something like...If the validation fired then don't run?
Please let me know if I'm still confusing you.
Thanks,
Joe -
Hello all,
After installing the 41.09 drivers for my MSI GF4200 64mb card, I noticed that upon DVD or any video file playback, I only see about one quarter of the video, which is the upper right hand corner. I do not know if the problem started with the installation of this driver as I have not tried to view video in awhile until after installing this driver. Previously I believe I had 4072 and the original drivers in. So, I reinstalled the original drivers and I am still having the same problem. I ran my direct x diag tool and I passed all of them.
Another strange part of this is the fact that after I play with the display settings, the problem seems to be fixed. But when I close the program, and reopen the video file the problem recoccurs again.
I do not have any other video problems that I know of, but I will go run Battlefield 1942 (intense gfx) to see how I fare. If anyone has any suggestions or ideas, please share as this is really starting to bug me. Thanks for your help in advance!

I have no idea what you mean by "sliding around", but could
it have
something to do with your missing old_break.css file?

Help with CSS positioning of menu
Hello.
Am slowly making some progress following recent difficulties
with CSS.
At the moment things are finally looking the same on
different browsers EXCEPT the menu bar to the right of the movie:
http://www.notjustthenews.co.uk/page2_movies.html
Basically in Internet Explorer it's where I want it to be,
level with the top of the movie, but in Safari it drops down much
lower.
Is there anything I can do to stop this happening?
This is the CSS I'm using for the menu:
width: 300px;
height: 160px;
float: left;
margin-top: 40px;
margin-bottom: 0px;

#3 Your CSS code is overly verbose. Less is more.
#4 I don't understand why you're using HTML5 but not using HTML5 tags for your content. For such a simple layout, this is all you need.

I have a layout that I need help with please. The bright green panel is going to have a Flash file inserted but I need it to sit inside the detailsWrapper div, which needs to stretch to allow this to happen. The content is being generated through php modules and the details will vary in length, so I'm having difficulty styling this. I'm sure it's something obvious but I need help please!
Here's the link: http://www.designermagic.co.uk/hobarts/reapitDetails.php?clearcache=true&pagevars=1-bedroo m-property-for-sale-in-London-N22-hobrps-ALE090002Your CSS code could use some tidying up. It's kind of a mess. See details below.

Help with CSS modifications...
Hi!
Finally got this up online for temporary testing. Here are
the items I'd like to modify...not sure how to tweak the code/css.
1) for starters, the links on the left hand continously move
down when I hit return in order to add more content on the page.
I'd like for everything in the left hand panel to be completely
static, and so the links fit into that transparency block within
the background image. (they are in a table now, before I had them
outside of a table, but I had a difficulty controlling them) When
we correct these to move up, the contact phone #, etc, will move up
where they should be positioned as well.
2) if you click on one of the links, the remainder of the
links all receive the 'visited' state visual; it's reading as one
cohesive element. That should not be, as they are independent.
3) I'm trying to control the "join our mailing list" to move
up into the sign up box, and in turn, this will bring up my main
paragraph closer to the top of this cell.
As you will see, I'm attempting to control this with CSS as
much as I can.
Thank you for your help; I really appreciate it!

They are moving because a) they are in a table that is nested
in a table
cell, b) the table cell in which that table is nested has no
vertical
alignment specified, c) with no vertical alignment specified,
you get the
default, which is MIDDLE, and d) as the outer table grows in
height, the
middle point of the cell in which the navigation table is
nested also
migrates lower.
The solution is to assign the CSS style vertical-align:top to
td.navlinks.

This is because they are all linking to the same target.
Visit one, and all
become visited.

The " " is not a layout tool. Don't use it as if it
were -
<h1
class="signup"> SIGN
UP!</h1>
If you want that content spaced over from the left, use a
padding-left style
on the .signup class.
Do not use background-attachment on that <h1> -
.signup {
height: 50px;
width: 99px;
border: 1px solid #C5C19D;
margin-top: 20px;
margin-left: 420px;
margin-right: 20px;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #591F00;
font-size: 13px;
background-image: url(images/signup-gradient.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
background-position: 10px;
background-attachment: fixed;
Replace your markup for that <h1> and <td> with
this -
<td width="546" height="261" valign="top"><h1
class="signup"
style="padding-left:10px;width:89px;">SIGN UP!<br>
<span class="joinmailinglist"
style="margin-left:0;">Join our
<br>mailing list</span></h1>
Finally, validate your page, and fix the errors. You have
table heights,
for example....

I am working on a site that is done with CSS. I have a couple
of pages posted but am having a problem with the footer. I have
made a wrapper at 100% hoping that the wrapper would always be at
100% of the screen in height. On one page the footer is at the
bottom, but on another page (index) the content is not all the way
to the bottom so the footer won't go all the way to the bottom. The
pages that I have up are located at:
http://www.mts.net/~vmendell/
This is the index and the second page is the Company
Information page. Also if anyone would like to critique the pages I
would gladly accept any and all criticism. One thing, the Flash
animation is just a place holder, the real animation is being
worked on at the moment.
Thank you all in advance for taking the time to look at my
pages and giving any help.
Thank You

At the first closing div above, your outerwrapper closes.
Then comes the Bear and finally an extraneous closing div . -
Could anyone help with the query below. I posted this last
friday but never
got a reply. The original message that i posted is also
below. It might be
easier to read from the bottom up.
Thanks
James
----------------------------------->
Thanks for your reply.
I've changed my code as you suggested & now the content
div is coming about
half way down the page- so were getting somewhere. There are
floated
elements so I have added the 'clearthefloats' div. There are
no absolutely
positioned elements, but I tried making the content div
position:relative
anyway but it had no effect.
I also added some text into the 'clearthefloats' div so i
could see where it
was on the page & it is halfway down the page itself,
even though it is
below the other elements in the page.
Thanks,
James

whole page
content not just the graphic. I tried setting the height till
it looked
right in firefox but then in ie there was about 150px extra
at the bottom.
(this was on another page which is a lot longer). Plus if i
set the height
to be right on the homepage, the other pages will be wrong. I
would have to
use seperate style sheets, or give the div's different id's.
Surely there is a way to get the div that all the contents
are in, to simply
wrap round them.
Thanks

Search Help with Structure Display
Hi,
I want to create a search help which should display my output in the structure format base on the different levels.
I have already written a test program which display all the values in proper structure format. But I wanna do the same in the search help. It has to display the output in the structure format.
Please guide me how to achieve this.
Thanks,
Karthikhello,
you could write additional report based on ALV tree. So you would have the stucture which you want to have and on value request call your custom program. i doubt that there is FM or class which could generate search help tree. So basically you have to write your own logic. Or you could use GuiXt tool. Example and tutorial.
