Vertical margin/padding inconsistency with IE

I am trying to align 2 vertical spry menu's over a background image which is split up into segments. The segmented image is in the centre of a sidebar div tag so i used CSS padding-left and padding-top to align the first menu to the centre and down a notch which worked perfect and was consistent in all browsers. Now im trying to align a second spry menu underneath the first menu. Logically I figured id place it underneath the first spry menu then use padding-top or margin-top to create the gap beween the menu's. This works perfectly in design view and all browsers except from IE which seems to render the gap between the two menu's about a third of the size. I dont really fully understand why IE is recognising the div padding to centre the menu's precisely but wont recognise the vertical padding/margin between the two menu's correctly. Im using absolute units (px) for all padding/margin. Has anyone got any suggestions? I once read about something called vertical margin collapse.....is that what this is or is that something completely different?

  • How set margin/padding top to combobox selected value

    Hi,
    Again I am facing new problem with combobox component, i need to set margin/padding top to combobox selected data using external AS file.
    I have tried the code --> combo_box.setStyle("marginTop", 5); and also used similar styles but its not working.
    Need your suggestions and help.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    i strongly urge you to read some book about CSS and forget using deprecated HTML tags like FONT.
    Why am i saying that?
    Well, you don't want to change a page template or a report definition every time the user complains about the size of a font or the space between lines, do you?
    CSS is all about presenting the page the way you want, setting margins, spaces, fonts and so on.
    You should focus on the content, the data, leaving the task of formatting to one or more CSS stylesheet linked in the HTML header.
    I recommend reading some articles first, at least to have a general idea of mainstream techniques:
    http://www.alistapart.com/articles/goingtoprint/
    http://webdesign.about.com/cs/css/a/aa042103a.htm
    Or you can google around searching for "css formatting printer friendly" to get a bunch of pages.

  • IPage: page vertical margin can't be adjust. / the Title Text box on every pape also.

    how to reduce the vertical margin in the iPage? why the adjust bar not seen on the vertical side line?
    why on every page there is a Title Text Box on the top and could not remove this non-sense/space wasting thing?
    -- is there are any better word processor in iWork or Mac family?
    thanks. jerry

    I'm having a very hard time trying to figure out what you are asking. Your post is hard to read with the giant font sizes, but I'll try.
    By vertical margin do you mean top & bottom? And what is an "adjust bar"?
    That "title text box" is a header. There are also footers & they are enabled by default in a Pages word processing document (no such thing as 'iPage'). You can turn them off in the document inspector. To recover the space, change the size to zero before unchecking the box. To make this the default for new document you'll need to save as a template & set this template to be the default in preferences.

  • Vertical Touch Pad not working on my 30gb Visio

    So,
    For some reason, the Vertical Touch Pad on my 30gb VM is suddenly not working. I can't select any tracks or raise the volume. I did notice that, initially, I heard a fast clicking sound as if I was scrolling on the Vertical Pad. Is there a reset solution? Since I'm having the Touch pad issue, I also can't select clean up, reboot, or anything in Recovery Mode. Any ideas?

  • I have problems with my films that become slightly jerky after I have imported and edited them in iMovie and then burned them onto a DVD using iDVD. I can see the weak jerkiness when panning in both laterally and vertically. I shoot with a camcorder Canon

    I have problems with my films that become slightly jerky after I have imported
    and edited them in iMovie and then burned them onto a DVD using iDVD.
    I can see the weak jerkiness when panning in both laterally
    and vertically.
    I shoot with a camcorder Canon Vixia HF10. The camera has been set to deliver HD quality (1920x1080). But I have accidentally filmed with a frame rate of 60 (?).
    When I import the films in iMovie I have been asked if I want to change to frame rate 30 (instead of 25). I have chosen 30.
    Could it be the setting of a frame rate 60 in my camcorder that causes jerkiness when panning or what else?

    Synching via WiFi wireless network will come with iOS 5 this fall, but I don't see any indications that Apple will ever support syching via Bluetooth. I can't say that they won't do so at some point, though. For now, you need to connect your iPad to your mini via the USB cable, or use a server-based solution (such as MobileMe/iCloud), to sync.

    We were told by TAC this is a cosmetic issue only and not to worry.  However, the engineer inside me wants to know what the router is upset about and how to suppress the log message.  I'd also like to ask Cisco to create a cosmetic bug fix for 5.1.3 to resolve the log message if it is indeed truly cosmetic only in nature.
    Thanks!

    hi Ben, the ddts is fixed in 52x forward. There is no smu planned for prior releases.
    you can schedule a periodic selective clear of the log buffer via:
    RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:A9K-BNG#clear log events delete [option] [field]
    the logging correlator, here is a little write up on that (copy/paste from my kb)
    XR nag Killer
    The short version  (i.e. here's the code to make it happen!)
    !! enter config mode... 
    conf t
    !! this removes the correlator so you can edit it...
    no logging correlator apply rule kill-annoyances all-of-router
    !!! define the rule
    logging correlator rule kill-annoyances type nonstateful
      timeout 600000
    !!! this is the "root cause" one... make sure you pick something that happens frequently
    rootcause PLATFORM ENVMON FAN_FAIL
    !!! these are all the NON root cause events. this is what gets squashed along with the root cause.
    !!! add things here that you want squashed.
      nonrootcause
      alarm PLATFORM ENVMON FAN_CLEAR
      alarm PLATFORM ENVMON FANTRAY_FAIL
      alarm PLATFORM ENVMON ENV_CONDITION
      alarm PLATFORM ENVMON FANTRAY_CLEAR
    !!! timeouts are currently maxed at ten minutes... (smu anyone?)
      timeout-rootcause 600000
    !!! this re-applies the correlator
     logging correlator apply rule kill-annoyances all-of-router
    !!! now commit the thing
    commit
    !!! done...
    On a somewhat related note, if anyone is not already familiar with the
     "logging correlator" function -- it can be used to greatly reduce the
     amount of "noise" generated by all these various little things that are
     broken (like single fan tray systems!)
     An example config that I have on my box is as follows:
     logging correlator rule fan type nonstateful
      timeout 600000
      rootcause PLATFORM ENVMON FAN_FAIL
      nonrootcause
      alarm PLATFORM ENVMON FAN_CLEAR
      alarm PLATFORM ENVMON FANTRAY_FAIL
      alarm PLATFORM ENVMON ENV_CONDITION
      alarm PLATFORM ENVMON FANTRAY_CLEAR
      timeout-rootcause 600000
    logging correlator apply rule fan
      all-of-router
    >>
    Which essentially says the following:
    >>
    1) a message of format "PLATFORM-ENVMON-FAN_FAIL" is a 'root cause' event.
    the timeout for root cause events is set to 600000ms (ten minutes), so
    no matter how many of these events I see, I will only actually throw a
    syslog every ten minutes.
    2) underneath this 'root cause' event are a number of 'nonrootcause'
    events.  If I see any of these events within the timeout specified (again,
    ten minutes) of a 'root cause' I will also suppress these messages -- the
    theory here is that I already know the root cause and don't want to clutter
    myself up with all the side effects.    In reality we're just hacking the
    correlator to get rid of messages, but hey -- it works.  ;-)
    >>
    3) this particular "correlator rule" is applied to the whole router (you
    *can* do all sorts of funky stuff with where you apply it if you want).
    4) in real environments the idea is to have lots of different correlators
    for different events... but what I do is basically maintain a great big
    list of known syslog messages that I don't want to have splattering my
    screen, and the correlator gobbles them all up for me.
    >>
    Limitations:
    >>
    5) UPDATE: you can now set timeouts up to 7200000 seconds (LONG time...)
    >>
    6) the only really annoying part is that you have to unapply the rule
    before you can edit it... so the process is "unapply rule, commit, change
    rule, apply rule, commit" instead of just "change rule".  But hey, it's
    better than nothing.
    >>
    7) if you want to see the messages that got suppressed/correlated, use the
    "show logging correlator buffer all-in-buffer" command -- and sit back and
    be amazed at how much console bandwidth you've saved.  ;-)

    Hope people find this helpful...

  • How to set vertical margins

    I know we can set layout margins both for before and after certain section. The problem is that it doesn't define the margins for the whole pages. If you take a look at my example http://cl.ly/53Xe, you can see that I have some large margins in the beginning of my chapter, but in the following pages I lose those same margins. *How can I set fixed vertical margins throughout the document?*

    Thanks for the feedback, Joe. Sometimes when the answer seems so obvious it means that we have misread the question. Knowing if we made a correct assumption is helpful.

  • Product version inconsistent with software components

    Hi,
    after upgrading our sandbox from 4.6C to ERP 6.0 EHP4 SP06 i've changed the product assignment in SMSY and fetched the new data using "Read System Data Remote". Now there are two problems:
    1.) Read System Data Remote shows error message S:032:000 trying to fetch data using RFC. No more explanations or long text. Although data is been read and updated and RFC test connection is ok.
    2.) The related system shows exclamation mark "Product version inconsistent with software components". The product version is SAP ERP 6.0, Product Instance is SAP ECC Server.  Now i tried "Change Product Assignment" and "Clean-Up Inconsistencies".  This results in a list of "Inconsistent Database Assignments" like "Product: SAP ERP" and "Product Instance: SAP SRM-Server". Nothing i can change here. I'm confused as i haven't defined SAP SRM-Server anywhere just SAP ECC-Server.
    Any ideas about 1.) or 2.)
    It seems to me that Solution Manager doesn't make life easier in the first.
    Thanks.

    Miguel,
    i have checked note 1165438 but can't see how this should help. The technical usage is correct and there is only one specified which is ECC / Central Applications. Still SMSY complains about SAP SRM-Server and more.
    Let me say that the system was defined as 4.6C before the upgrade and that we used Solution Manager to download all required packages for ERP 6.0 EHP4 SP06 which worked fine. The problem is as said before that after changing the product version to ERP 6.0 there are inconsistencies shown on the product assignment page (inconsistent database assignment) for SAP SRM-Server, SRM-Catalog, cProject Suite, Workforce Management, E-Recruiting, NW-Business Intelligence, NW-Process Integration, SEM, SRM-Server ECC AddOn, SRM Catalog Content, NW Mobile Infrastructure, FSCM-FSCM Server (ABAP), Application Platform-IPC and Learning Sol-Frontend ABAP. Never heard about them nor specified them anywhere.
