<div> blocks in same position?

Hello,

Sorry for separate posting in both this and the authoring.html group -
my mistake.

I have a series of <divblocks which I want to appear in the same
position on the page, one after the other.

Can I do this with css/javascript?

At the moment one <divblock is visible and the other 3 invisible.
Once the first block has been used I want it to become invisible and
the second block to become visible and take its place on the page.

I can do the visible/invisible bit but the problem at the moment is
that each <divoccupies its own space and successive blocks, when
they are made visible, move along the page.

Cheers

Geoff

Got my answer from html.authoring group

"There are various ways to do this but one is to switch them between
display:block and display:none rather than between visibility:visi ble
and visibility:hidd en.

If something's display:none then it's as though it weren't there at
all."

Cheers

Following is a snippet of html in which I hide a whole table and try to hide a single row. Here is my question (plz don't chew my head off if its css related instead): Why does the divTable <div> Hide/Show work but not the divRow version? What I'm trying to do here is simultaneously hide 1 or more rows (possibly with nested divs as well). This would allow for an elegant an well performing base for an html base treetable (but I guess...

I know this must seem totally basic and stupid, but I cannot find any reference that describes how to control the spacing between <p>...</p> and <div>...</div> blocks. When I implement these on a page, there is a huge gap (like 3/8 inch or 25 px) between them. This is driving me bananas. What the hey am I missing? dh ------------------------------------------------ Dan Hansen ------------------------------------------------

Ok, the situation is as follows: I defined a <DIV> like: <div id="myid" style="position: absolute; height: 10; width: 10;"><img src="images/object.gif" height=10 width=10></div> This pane is used to move an object around on the web page by a javascript. As long as I define no further <div> pane everything works fine.

L.S., I'm trying to make a layout which is completely fixed in width and height if needed by using three divs rows (header, content, footer) which have each 3 div again to be able to play around better with the webdesign. The problem is that I need the content div row to nudge up automatically to the header div row, independantly of the header height. The same goes for the footer/content div row.

I'm new(ish) to css, comfortable using tables, but trying real hard to move away. Please see http://84.9.125.31/developer/css_test/test5.html NB This issue is with IE & Opera - I've tried IE 6&7 and both have the same result. It works fine in FF. Thanks to Petr Stanicek for the original example. As you can see the table is 800px wide in the middle column and it's vertical position is affected by the amount of text in the left or right...

Hi All, I'm working on a new site that has a two column layout underneath a title bar. If you check out: http://www.christianleadership.org.uk/scratch/mainpage.php using IE or Opera you will see what I am after as these browsers work fine. However, in FF the results are slightly different - take a look and you'll see that the <p>, within <div class="mainContent"> has shot way over to the right.
