Serious CSS Help Needed

Hi,
This is my first attempt at a pure table-less css driven
site. I have been doing a combination of both up to this point.
Here is the site
http://www.getascendent.com/
it shows up fine in IE if I force IE to use "Quirks Mode". Take a
look at the site in FireFox and you will see what I mean.
Here is the CSS I am use. Any advise would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks,
Art

  • Urgent CSS Help Needed

    Hi guys, I need some serious help, I am making a website for
    University and am struggling to center the website so that it stays
    centered on different resolutions and when the window is made
    smaller. My lecturer gave me the code which is apparently this -
    body {
    margin:50px 0px; padding:0px;
    text-align:center;
    #Content {
    width:500px;
    margin:0px auto;
    text-align:left;
    padding:15px;
    border:1px dashed #333;
    background-color:#eee;
    but I have no idea what to do with this stuff in order to
    correctly implement it, the attached code is an example of one of
    the pages I want centering, could someone either give me a step by
    step walkthrough of what to do? or could they show me directly
    where the code goes in the attached stuff.
    Thanks in advance

  • Float Drop CSS help needed, i'm loosing my mind.

    here is an example ...
    http://www.wiatrc.org/wiatrc/vendor/test.html
    i know my code is a mess, i've searched the board, but have
    succeeded in confusing myself even more.
    i did the 'float left' and even took out one of my columns to
    try to make it fit.
    it seemed to work over here
    http://www.wiatrc.org/wiatrc/vendors.html
    any help would be appreciated.

    try messing with the padding and or margins setting them to
    zero in your CSS. I tmight be helpful to post your html and css
    code to get help more easily. There are lots of issues with
    relapsing margins, default padding differences between browsers .
    and some buggy stuff within IE.
    Take a look at this page, there are some good posts on best

  • DW CS5 APP - CSS Help Needed

    I'm trying to learn about using CSS in DW CS5 and I could use some help....
    like....
    - I'm a bit confused with the difference in CSS / HTML tabs in property inspector - like why is there 2 not just 1?
    - also working with css in tables .... I try to edit / delete / change from 1 class to another and it doesn't do what I expect - that sort of thing
    - also I'd like to highlight some text and simply add css to it easily - (from css window?)
    - any way you get the ideas
    Q: are there some simple DW CS5 tutorials to get me going?

    - I'm a bit confused with the difference in CSS / HTML tabs in property inspector - like why is there 2 not just 1?
    Two what?  The HTML 'tab' gives you access to HTML properties, and the CSS 'tab' to CSS properties.  Is that what you mean?
    - also working with css in tables .... I try to edit / delete / change from 1 class to another and it doesn't do what I expect - that sort of thing
    You would have to show us what you are doing, what you expected to see, and what you actually saw.  A look at your code would be the very best way to help you with this.
    - also I'd like to highlight some text and simply add css to it easily - (from css window?)
    Sorry - I don't follow.  Highlight text and add what CSS to it?
    - any way you get the ideas
    Well, as a matter of fact, no. I don't.
    Q: are there some simple DW CS5 tutorials to get me going?
    The very best bet would be to spend your time learning about HTML and CSS - you can do that at http://www.w3schools.com.  If you are comfortable in those two, DW will be easy.

  • CSS Help Needed

    This page displays ok on the web http://www.jdcdemo.com/pbc/test2.html but in the layout mode in DWCS4 layout mode it looks like a train wreck http://www.jdcdemo.com/pbc/screenshots.html I floated everything in the side bar to the left, but it held the main content down and I could not figure out how to make it behave.
    Bottom line, I'm just about certain there is something amiss with the CSS, but I cannot figure out what it is.So here I am, hat in hand, seeking advice from those who are better informed and more experienced than I. I am relatively new to CSS, probably understanding the process only enough to be dangerous.
    Thanks in advance,
    Joe

    This comes up on a regular basis, design looks fine in the browser, looks bad is design view. I have never read any other advice other than to not worry about it and worry only about the view that in the browser. I did have occasion this week where something in my DW DV went out, browser was fine, but I was able to correct it (I added a clear to a float that did not seem nessassry to me).
    I would not spend alot of time on it, it if looks good out live, let F12 be your guide and don't worry about DV, (It will get you to code view more anyway).

  • CSS help needed here!!

    Have a look the blue column headers at www.optionetics.com,
    which have white text on top. (Learn about Options Trading, Today's
    Market Commentary, Featured Articles) etc.
    We want to create something similar for the column headers on
    the homepage at www.investix.co.uk for the 2 centre columns. Is
    there a snippet of CSS code that I can use to create this blue
    column header?

    Hi.
    As Walter said in that page the H2 element have been styled
    with a
    background image. The background image they are using is
    here:
    http://www.optionetics.com/images/hd-bg.gif
    So you will have an idea.
    For get the same effect in your page, would be:
    The ccs code:
    .column2-unit-left h3 {
    color: #fff;
    font-size: 100%;
    background: transparent url(here the background image)
    no-repeat;
    padding: 2px 6px 1px;
    border-bottom: 2px solid #3c3;
    margin: 0 0 6px;
    As you have two column the right column would be as the above
    but with
    .column2-unit-right h3.
    the html code would be:
    <div class="column2-unit-left">
    <h3><a href="stocks_foundation.html">Stocks
    Foundation
    Program</a></h3>
    <p><img src="multiflex3/img/new
    imgs/rader_watching_trading_screen.jpg" alt="" height="56"
    width="85"
    border="0" />Learn the principles every investor should
    know</p>
    <hr noshade="noshade" size="1" />
    Play with the colors, the margins, the paddings till you get
    final desired.

  • Beginner CSS help needed - White space.

    So, I'm creating this website...yes im a beginner, and I just dont know how to add white space onto each side of the site as to center it in the browser.
    here's what I have...but, when I try and use "float:left;" the div sits outside the container, even though it is definitely inside it? Any recs? Thanks x
    body  {
        font: 100% Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
        background: #ffffff;
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0;
        text-align: center;
        color: #000000;
        height: auto;
    #container {
        width: 750px;
        margin: 0 auto;
        border: 1px solid #000000;
        text-align: left;
        background-color: #FFCCE6;
        height: auto;

    Code fragments, screenshots, etc.. don't show us the problem.  For best results here, you should upload your test page to your web server and post the URL here.
    Using our browser and web developer toolbars, we can see your page, underlying code and trouble shoot what might be going wrong.
    As a rule of thumb, build your HTML content logically from top to bottom of page.  Then go back in and add division tags for your CSS to grab onto.  My guess is that you have positioned the left column outside your main wrapper division.  But without seeing your HTML and CSS code, the best we can do is make guesses.

  • Serious, Pro level Illustrator Scripting help needed

    I need a pretty robust script and I am willing to pay for it. I am sorry if soliciting like that is a against forum rules, I will find out if my post gets, deleted/locked. I am just serious about this need for a script.
    I am not sure if this is possible in Illustrator, but I really hope so. I need a script that will read the information from the x,y position and width x height in the Transform Palette of any selected object (or objects would be even better), including all the the different reference point values, and then write discrete user selected info; based on a easy to use panel of check marks, radio buttons or whatever, to a text field a set number of pixel offset from the upper left corner of the object bounds.
    I would be happy to explain further if this is the correct place for this type of discussion.
    If this is not the right place, my humblest apologies but perhaps someone could turn me on to a better place?
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    This does not sound like a big task.
    Here is a script I use every day.
    displays the Width and Height below each selected Item or group.
    have a go and let me know if this is kinda what you are thinking.
    from there we can work out how you want everything displayed
    var doc = app.activeDocument;
    var sel = doc.selection;
    var TOmm = 2.83466796875;
    Dim(sel);

  • Photoshop CS2 has serious error and needs to be reinstalled * 3

    Hello,
    I am running photoshop CS2 at work and had it open very slowly this morning (3minutes) and then give me an error message - Photoshop has encountered a serious error and needs to restart. I did this 3 times and it still is not working. I did a full uninstall each time, trashed prefferences, repaired permissions and restared but with no luck. Capture One is not opening either, but one step at a time here.
    Anyone have any suggestions?
    thaks

    A little more info:
    This seems particularly likely to happen when I open a sequence on the timeline that has more than 5 audio tracks.
    I'm using OS Mavericks 10.9.5. Video footage is .R3D. I have the crash report if that helps.

  • CSS11503 help needed !!

    We hav a CSS11503 in our QA environement is now refusing to boot. Looks like the
    disk in slot0 was corrupt. When I ran a check disk on it, there were a ton of errors.
    I have since reformatted the disk.
    I have a CSS11506 in production that has the exact same setup and I hav ethe old config file.
    I have put the qa disk into slot 1 of the prod CSS and need to copy over the boot image from slot 0 to slot 1:
    Hoping that once I can do that, I can reinsert the disk back into the QA CSS and hopefully boot it up. From there
    I can upload the config to it.
    Problem is I dont see to be able to copy the boot image that is on disk0: over to disk1:
    Any help with the syntax would be appreciated.
    Cheers
    Dave

  • Changing Logos, fonts, and colours- Which CSS elements need to be modified?

    All,
    When customizing the BPM workspace, I read the guide, but it doesn't provide a great deal of detail on what specific elements in the bpmworkspace.css file need to be altered. Does anyone have a "cheat sheet" with this information or can you point me to where I could find it?
    TIA,
    IGS

    Maybe this link could help you:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13154_01/bpm/docs65/workspace_customization/index.html
    There is a CSS reference guide that can help you. I am using this reference.
    regards
