From some reason the entire webpage start about 5px from the top. I've margin:0 auto; the whole thing plus margin-top:0px; the whole thing too... #container { width: 700px; font-family: serif; font-size:14px; color: #222222; margin:0 auto; border-left:solid 1px #333333;

I just implemented an "overflow: auto" for a div in the main message window: http://www.auriance.com/docs/interaction/ This works as expected in Internet Explorer and Opera, but in Firefox it doesn't.

<select multiple style="height:200px;"> <option>a <option>b </select> Why does Mozilla draw the vertical scrollbar to the SELECT html element?

Hi, I need help in setting up a page where the text wraps around an image. Right now, I am using table, with text in one <td> and the image in the adjacent <td>. The problem is when the text is longer than the height of the image, I get all this dead space below the image with the text just going vertically down in its own <td>. Can I use...

Greetings, I am encountering some issues regarding using float while desiring to set the height to 100%. This is likely due to my own misunderstanding of the way things actually function -- any guidance would be appreciated. To summarize, I would like to have a variable-width, 100% height, left-floating column. However, it seems as...

I have been doing some research about embedding images in HTML using the data URL src method of the format: <img src="/-/data:image/gif;base64,<DATA>"> My question is, how does one generate this <DATA> string? I have found some on the web that I can load into my browser but if I save this image and then view in Notepad it looks much...

Hi, Up to now, I didn't find a solution to align text in the middle of a inline neither block box in the vertical direction. That's because the vertical-align property is not active for many boxes. And when it is, not all the browsers folow it. I think there is a general solution in surrounding the box with another box, using the top...

You can add a back button to your web page. When a visitor to your page clicks the button, they're taken to the last page they visited, as if they clicked the back button in their browser. You can accomplish this by editing the HTML of your page, and adding a little JavaScript. Note These buttons won't work if the user has no browsing...

I'm designing a layout for a project and I'm a little rusty on HTML and CSS. I have a div that is centered in the page using margin: auto, it also has a margin-top of 15 and uses CSS3's box-shadow and a border-radius set to 10px. What I want is for the bottom of the div to be locked to the bottom of the screen, unless the content within it...

Hi all, I have form elements that I want to not be editable. They should, however, be passed on submission. AFAIK, then, they need to be readonly.

Hi all, I'm checking to see if anyone knows of a hack or trick or whatever to get IE6 to keep a minimum width of a tableless page. I have the entire page content wrapped in a container div called bodywrap that sets the min-width to 760px and I added the spacer.gif for IE5.x and NN4 in the body of the html and added the trick suggested...

We've got some plain text in a DB that we're pulling out and putting it on our website. The problem is it has some lists like this: 1. This text goes on and on forever and eventually it wraps to the next line. What I want to do is force that 2nd (and any other lines below it) to wrap like this:

I would like to use a Form "button" (or "input", either one) within an anchor, instead of using text or creating a graphic. This works fine in all browsers but IE, but IE, while showing the correct URL in the status line and the tooltip, DOESN'T initiate the link. The code is essentially: <a href="http://foo.com/whatever.htm"> <input...

I'm working with a requirement to make a selectbox the same height as normal text input elements. (at least for IE7) But in IE the selectbox reacts strangely to the CSS rules. Normally, there are so many things not possible with select boxes in IE. But the I discovered I could actually change the height by adjusting font-size, then...

Hi, I have a version of my resume that is (almost) web ready and I'm pleased with its appearance on the screen (well, sort of heh heh, it's my first HTML). I also created a tighter, scaled-down version from my original (Pagemaker 6.0) as an Adobe PDF, so employers can have something that is graphically identical to the original PM6 document....
