I'm struggling to redesign this site so that it is "stretchy". Previously everything was fixed-width and absolutely positioned. I was hoping to get the text at top to center inside the top banner.

Hello, I am making a website where the user can choose a 'skin'. This works with asp en stylesheets. In the stylesheet, a number of tags are (re)defined. The main idea is to have a limited number of colors (lets say 4) and use only these colors to color up every tag. However, with a long list of (custom) styles, it is a lot of work to...

I'd like to know if an HTML form page can be made to output to a text file on the same computer. The references that I've consulted only discuss the GET and POST actions communicating with the server, but I'd like to write to an existing file on the browser's same machine. TIA, J.

I have a site that runs in strict mode in IE6, and IE is making <td>s for simple two-digit numbers really wide. So I want to restrict it (and right-align it) by using <td class="number"> and .number { width: 10px; }. In Mozilla this works, but IE ignores this. Next to adding an invisible "0" precding one-digit numbers, what can I do to solve...

Hi all, If I open the web page http://abrupto.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_abrupto_archive.html#116654586752664431 with either Firefox or Internet Explorer, I see two pictures near the top left corner. Then, if I press the «Page Down» button, there's a missing picture; all I see is an alternate text (which says " tank driving"). But if I...

Hello Reading the follwing document: http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-positioning-970131#In-flow it seems very clear that position:relative should be relative to the parent element.

I am very new to CSS and am trying to set up 2 divs in the same space on the page. The idea is that div1 will be an informational message only displayed sometimes. When there isn't a message to be put there, then div1 will be hidden and div2 content will be visible. The problem I am having with this is that the content is still lining up...

I desperately need help. My understanding of CSS is non-existent. I have a store http://astore.amazon.com/texasheat-20 with Amazon.com. According to the information from Amazon.com "Write your own overriding CSS to customize your aStore." Their setup page is divided into two sections. On the right they show the existing CSS.

I would appreciate suggestions of sites that would help a non-programmer teacher learn how to change from a frame based to frameless interface. WHY: I developed several offline educational "apps" that use html. I have been trying to help kids and adults with an html interface to study with that supports one's own language. They have and will...

I just developed a website, all its features are intact as long as its in the folder i downloaded its template with, the moment i try to change the name of this folder or move the index and assets into another folder, some CSS features shut down, same happened when i uploaded it on the server.

Hi, Just wondering if anyone can help here. We have a site where most of the site opens in a window with no toolbars or menubar: window.open('mypage.aspx','self','toolbar=0, menubar=0, etc, etc) This is because it's a data driven site where space is at a premium and we'd rather discourage use of back, stop and refresh. The problem...

I have a multiple choice quiz where I would like to use CSS to change the color of the answers upon clicking them. I would like to present the right and wrong answers up front, rather than direct the user to a separate page with all correct answers. Do the answers have to be "links" for this to work? They have to be inactive links, because...

http://swri.info/images/sqlfltr4.png Unaccountably, I cannot set the height of the textbox when using pixels. I wanted the height to match the xx-small font, about "14px", but I found that I had to use "40%" for the height. The "14px" actually worked in the design view, but not at runtime. So why was the "px" ignored at runtime, but the %...

Hello, I have the following HTML / CSS that draws 2 rows. Each row has 3 cells. I want the cells within each row to span a single line. Each cell is 100px wide, and the row containing them is 250px wide. Clearly the last cell won't fix, but rather than wrapping to the next 'line' within the row, I'd like the last cell to be clipped and only...

Hi, My brain's a bit fried on this one. I'm using the li:hover method to display sub menus at http://dev.hyl.co.uk/guide4life/. All works swimmingly in FF, however IE7 loses the hover (and so the sub menu) when you mouse over items further down the sub menu list. This only seems to happen when the sub menu is over the text of a paragraph...
