I have this seemingly simple problem that has proven somewhat harder to
solve than I'd expected. I've been grappling with this for quite a
while, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Please have a look: http://www.thinkdesign.com/amrev-css2/
I have 2 html pages and the stylesheet linked from there.
The problem is that even when I define a z-index for #sections, it still
pushes the other divs down, out of the way.
The page uses the following definition for the floated layer that seems
to be causing the problems:
In CSS
#sections {
float:right;
width:148px;
font-size:0.8em;
text-align:right;
background: #c69;
font-weight: bold;
margin: -23px 0 0 0;
padding: 3px;
}
In HTML I have:
<div id="wrap">
<div id="header">
...
</div>
<div id="nav">
<ul>
<li>
<a href="#">Option 1</a>
</li>
...
...
...
<li>»
<a href="#">Option 6</a>
</li>
</ul>
<div id="sections">
Content in float. <br />
Content in float. <br />
Content in float. <br />
</div>
</div>
<div id="sidebar">
<ul>
<li>
<a title="Register " href="main_page ">Register</a>
</li>
...
...
...
</div>
<div id="main">
<h1>Educators </h1> <h3>Teacher resources</h3>
</div>
<div id="footer">
</div>
</div>
Thanks again for your help! 2 2383

If I put float:left into #nav, #sections no longer pushes the divs down.
Option10 is still covered up by sections, unless the #wrap is widened.
Making wrap wider makes an ugly gap between #sidebar and #main until you
change the float:right in main to float:left.
Then it looks like what you want.

Links should be recognizable as links.
It's a bother having to unravel a complete design, your's wasn't to bad,
but you're likely to get more and better responses if you demonstrate

Pardon?
, it still pushes the other divs down, out of the way.
Neither #sidebar nor #main should be floated.
Due to the CSS deficiencies of IE, floating unfortunately has become a
generic method to align in some peoples minds. This is unfortunate
because the floating mechanism is generally not properly understood, and
because CSS float rules are ridiculously complex all browsers have float
bugs.
The page uses the following definition for the floated layer that seems to be causing the problems:
Don't propagate the Dreamweaver "layer" speak, it's nonsense.

Don't post code to the group, an url is preferred.
Btw, Transitional is for legacy documents that cannot be updated, Strict
is the correct coding practice for newly authored or revised documents.

Hello.
The issue is quite known: you have a block-level container holding a
set of floated elements and you need that the container's content
height take the floated elements' dimensions into consideration. E.g.:
<div class="images">
<div class="image"><img src="example1.png" width="160" height="120"
alt=""></div>
<div class="image"><img src="example2.png" width="160" height="120"

I have a div floated left for a navbar, with another div in the normal
flow for content, like so:
#leftnav { float: left; width: 120px; }
#content { margin-left: 170px; margin-right: 10px;}
What I'd like is for my left nav to always stay in a fixed size and
position, and my content to size dynamically to fit the window. This
mostly works for that, except that if the content contains a table
wider than the content div, the table gets...

Okay, so my subject sounds a bit crass. As much as I'd like to
totally embrace css and avoid "deprecated" usage, sometimes the
deprecated stuff is so much easier and more effective. Plus, it at
least does what I want it to, while I'm left puzzled trying to make a
css implementation do the same thing.
Here is a simple example.

I see from a few previous postings that I am not the only person having a
problem with hidden list item bullets. This question applies to both IE 6,
current version, and Firefox 0.8 browsers, which I am using for testing.
I have a design in progress that uses a relatively positioned, left-floated,
122px wide navbar, with the main content padded to the right by 10px,
wrapping under after it exceeds the height of the...

I have a floated image and some paragraph text in a fluid box. It works
beautifully, but only when the text extends beyond the image.
Could someone take a look at my source please and tell me how I can 'fix'
the second box.

There's a slightly different outcome on FF and IE(7).

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
