Hi,
I'm trying to use style sheets instead of tables for layout, but I'm not
sure on how to do something...
I have a div (100% width) containing 3 other divs. Each needs to be lined
up next to one another inside the first div. Whenever I nest these divs
inside the first, it always treats each of them like a block element and
puts them on the next line down. If I try to define 'block: inline' for
each of them, the ones without images disappear, and if I try to define this
for just the div with the image, it does nothing.
Here's the code I'm using:
<div style="height: 19px; width: 100%;">
<div style="backgrou nd-color: #B5302B; width: 334px;"></div>
<div style="width: 19px;"><img src="images/innercorner.gif "></div>
<div style="backgrou nd-color: #B5302B; width: 100%;"></div>
</div>
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

The problem here is that you are using generic containers to do something
other then contain something (and that width doesn't apply to non-replaced
inline elements).
I'd do something along the lines of:
<div style="backgrou nd-color: #B5302B; margin: 0; padding: 0;"><img
src="images/innercorner.gif " alt="??" style="margin-left: 334px;"></div>

That helped alot, David...thanks! I have one more area I'm stumped...I have
the following code:
<div style="width: 100%;">
<div style="height: 800px; width: 339px; background: #B5302B
url(week01/images/innerright.gif) repeat-y right;"></div>
<h1>Heading text</h1></div>
I'm trying to get the heading text to show up to the right of the div
containing the y-tiling background image. Right now, the heading appears
below the div, since the div is a block element. But when I set the display
of the div to inline, it disappears. Is there simple way to achieve this?
Thanks,
Aaron

I't 'display: inline' and you should put your CSS code outside the
elements ;-) Here's the code I'm using:
<div style="height: 19px; width: 100%;"> <div style="backgrou nd-color: #B5302B; width: 334px;"></div> <div style="width: 19px;"><img src="images/innercorner.gif "></div> <div style="backgrou nd-color: #B5302B; width: 100%;"></div> </div>

The divs of the 'box' class seem to have the effect I want in IE
(namely: consistent height and horizontal alignment along the set of
divs), but it totally falls apart in Firebird, like the p's inside teh
divs are independent of the div's properties... (looked okay until I
applied "display: inline;")
What would be the proper way (I'm assuming that Firebird is displaying
the proper behaviour)?

I'd like to have the colored boxes appear on the same line as "Test"
does. The div containing the colored boxes is defined as being inline,
yet doesn't seem to be acting as an inline element. I suspect the
floats in the images within the div may be contributing to the problem,
but I don't know what to do about it if that's the case. Any ideas?
