Why is my menu off-center?


The demo page at http://www.robschwimmer.com/tmp/test.html has a menu at
the bottom, which should be centered 50 pixels from both left and right
edges. As the dotted green line around the enclosing div indicates, it is
--in Mozilla at least-- actually pushed to the right.

Both HTML and CSS validate fine (there are some warnings on the CSS having
to do with color, but that's deliberate for the way I set the text
colors.)

Any idea what's happening?

Thanks,

Pierre

I think the intention was for the box to have buffers of fixed size... don't
ask me why...


There's a vertical border down the side; or there will be. Therefore I
need the menu box to keep left and right margins free.

Hi, I have found some menu functions. It works quite well, but how can I replace it with a simple <a href> if javascript is turned off? I reduced my code to: <script>IncludeMenuHere()</script> More, any tips about "fading" the menu item in and out (x-browser)? Currently it's using DIVs and this.items.visibility(false);

I am confused on childNodes or children. When you have nested lists, I would think it would all be one list in the Dom, this doesn't seem to be the case. So how do you traverse an unordered list?

If the node...

I've been trying to add a tree menu to my website with some luck (more or less). I came across a script on simplythebest.net, but I seem to be having a problem with it... and since they have no help section, this has brought me here. The script can be found at http://simplythebest.net/scripts/DHTML_scripts/dhtml_script_100.html (no login or anything required... I just thought the script might be too long to repost here)

Hi everybody I'd appreciate some help on creating a tear off menu with TkInter. I've been reading some documentation but still no luck. Please don't get confused: when I mean "tear off" menu I don't mean a drop-down or a pop-up menu, but those options which yield to another batch of sub-options when scrolled over, (as for example, the File->New option from internet explorer).

Hi, I am trying to create two custom menu bars for my application, one for read-only users (without delete record), and one for update-access users (with delete record).

When I create an Edit menu on the custom menu bar, and then modify it, it seems to also be changing the Edit menu on the other custom menu,

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
