I'm having a problem with my site
I need the header to come forward, its running on wordpress here is the link to the site: http://goo.gl/E1ErzD
and here is the code that makes the header float:
#header {
padding: 1.618em 0 0;
margin-bottom: 3.631em;
border-bottom: 4px double #e8e4e3;
clear: both;
position: fixed;
You need to set a z-index, and apply a background-color to the header in order for it to move forward. You should also consider setting a width:
#header {
padding: 1.618em 0 0;
margin-bottom: 3.631em;
border-bottom: 4px double #e8e4e3;
clear: both;
position: fixed;
z-index: 9999;/* set this to something high*/
background-color:#fff; /* so you can see it is a block */
min-width:100%; /* play with this too, and asdjust margins. check in IE - you may have to set a width rather then min-width*/
Add this to your css code for the header:
z-index: 1;

I created multi-line-padded text based on Matthew Pennell's solution (codepen by CSS Tricks). In Chrome all looks fine, but in Firefox height of span elements bigger than height of their ancestor. If I adjust vertical padding for Firefox, in Chrome will be same problem, and vice versa.
Why it happens? What the real technical reasons of this problem?
HTML Code:
<div class="padded-multiline">
<h1>
<strong>How do I add padding to subsequent lines of an inline text element?</strong>
</h1>
</div>
CSS Code:
:root {
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 20px;
}
.padded-multiline {
line-height: 1.3;
padding: 2px 0;
border-left: 20px solid #c0c;
width: 400px;
margin: 20px auto;
}
.padded-multiline h1 {
background-color: #c0c;
padding: 4px 0;
color: #fff;
display: inline;
margin: 0;
}
.padded-multiline h1 strong {
position: relative;
left: -10px;
}
Setting a line-height: 1; on strong will fix the problem also read my comment.
Chrome and Firefox seems to use different text layout system.
In Chrome it will floor the line-height attribute and Firefox seems to use the correct one.
To achieve the same effect for title, just use only the outline.
H1 does not need strong.
.padded-multiline {
line-height: 1.3;
padding: 2px 0;
width: 400px;
margin: 20px auto;
}
.padded-multiline h1 {
background-color: #c0c;
padding:1px;
color: #fff;
display: inline;
outline: 10px solid #c0c;
margin: 0;
font-size:16px;
}
<div class="padded-multiline">
<h1>How do I add padding to subsequent lines of an inline text element?</h1>
</div>
Here is codepen: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/vgRvjM
If you need exactly visual (that means less purple space from top and bottom, you can use for example border from after and before):
.padded-multiline:before{
content:'';
display:block;
border:5px solid #fff;
position:relative;
left:-10px;
top:-3px;
}
.padded-multiline:after{
content:'';
display:block;
border:5px solid #fff;
position:relative;
left:-10px;
bottom:-3px;
}

Unfortunately, there isn't a full and clean crossbrowser workaround. Because different UAs render text different, height of each textline may be taller a bit (or vice verca). So, I create a solution based on SCSS calculations of required box' sizes, and hide artefacts via overflow property.
Here is my solution, if you meet the same problem: http://codepen.io/ifiri/pen/ygEeeL
HTML:
<p class="multiline-text">
<span class="multiline-text__wrapper multiline-text__wrapper--outer">
<span class="multiline-text__wrapper multiline-text__wrapper--left">
<span class="multiline-text__wrapper multiline-text__wrapper--right">Multiline Padded text, which looks great on all browsers. No artefacts, no hacks, all clear and flexy, all alignment support. Change SCSS variables for see how it works.</span>
</span>
</span>
</p>
SCSS:
/*
Variables
*/
$base-line-height: 1.75;
$base-font-size: 1.25em;
$multiline-padding-base: ($base-line-height / 2) * 1em;
$multiline-padding-horizontal: $multiline-padding-base;
$multiline-padding-vertical: $multiline-padding-base - (1em / 2);
$multiline-bg-color: #a5555a;
$multiline-font-color: #fff;
/*
= Snippet Styles
This code is required
*/
.multiline-text {
color: $multiline-font-color;
padding: 0px $multiline-padding-horizontal;
// hide line-height artefacts
overflow: hidden;
position: relative;
}
.multiline-text__wrapper {
background-color: $multiline-bg-color;
padding: $multiline-padding-vertical 0px;
}
.multiline-text__wrapper--outer {
// Inner padding between text lines
line-height: $base-line-height;
}
.multiline-text__wrapper--left {
position: relative;
left: -($multiline-padding-horizontal);
}
.multiline-text__wrapper--right {
position: relative;
right: -($multiline-padding-horizontal / 2);
}
I'm at a total loss on why I can't align the Search box to the left
The Search and RSS feed align on the test page:
http://scottjaxon.com/devsite/testnivo48.html
As it is on the home page (with a pic instead of nivo slider)
http://scottjaxon.com/devsite/index.html
I don't get it. I gotta be missing the smallest thing!
#wrapper #user1 #feahome #searchhome {
float: right;
color: #FFFFFF;
height: 22px;
margin-top: 8px;
padding: 0px 20px 0px 20px;
Or is it something with the NivoSlider CSS?
.nivoSlider {
position:relative;
width:100%;
height:auto;
overflow: hidden;
}
.nivoSlider img {
position:absolute;
top:0px;
left:0px;
}
.nivo-main-image {
display: block !important;
position: relative !important;
width: 100% !important;
}
Your index.html and testnivo48.html have different dom structures.
In index.html, the feahome div tag is the parent of rsshome and searchhome div tags; but in the testnivo48.html, they are all on the same level.
That's why the following css rule (in http://scottjaxon.com/devsite/css/style.css) gets applied on index.html, but ignored in testnivo48.html
#wrapper #user1 #feahome #searchhome {
...
}
After you fix the html, your problem might get solved.
I was looking at the CSS for both and the only thing I saw that was different in your
CSS compared to the CSS for http://scottjaxon.com/devsite/index.html is this:
#wrapper #user1 #feahome #searchhome {
float: LEFT; // the working version has it floated left as well
color: #FFFFFF;
height: 22px;
margin-top: 8px;
padding: 0px 20px 0px 20px;
Give it a shot and see if that works.
It may be a prioritizing problem. Using div#searchhome will give it a higher priority.
The html is:
<div class="choose-os">
<p>
Microsoft Windows
Apple Mac OS
</p>
</div>
The CSS is:
.choose-os {
margin: 20px 0;
padding: 20px;
background: #e7eefa;
}
.choose-os p {
margin: 0;
}
.choose-os p a {
display: inline-block;
text-indent: -100000px;
height: 56px;
width: 308px;
}
.choose-os p a.windows {
background: url(../images/button-windows-bg.png) 0 0;
}
.choose-os p a.macos {
background: url(../images/button-macos-bg.png) 0 0;
}
.choose-os p a:hover {
background-position: 0 -56px;
}
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as to have the background image also appear on IE7.
The text-indent: -100000px; in combination with inline-block is what's causing the two elements to not be visible in IE7, due to a bug.
You need to find some other way to hide the text for IE7 (or not use inline-block at all, see below for this more suitable fix).
Options include the method in the comment by #Sotiris, or:
.choose-os p a {
display: inline-block;
height: 56px;
width: 308px;
text-indent: -100000px;
/* for ie7 */
*text-indent: 0;
*font-size: 0;
*line-height: 0
}
Which uses the *property: value hack several times to hide the text in IE7.
The problem does seem to be related to the use of display: inline-block.
So, another workaround (which I prefer to my previous one) is:
.choose-os {
margin: 20px 0;
padding: 20px;
background: #e7eefa;
overflow: hidden
}
.choose-os p a {
float: left;
margin-right: 4px;
text-indent: -100000px;
height: 56px;
width: 308px;
}
To display inline-block properly in IE7, add the following styles to .choose-os p a
zoom:1
*display:inline
(The star is important! It's ignored by modern browsers, but not IE6/7)
IE7 doesn't respect inline-block, so you have to do a little magic to make it work. There's a great description here: http://blog.mozilla.com/webdev/2009/02/20/cross-browser-inline-block/
[edit] If text-indent is also part of the culprit, you may be better of sticking with display:block and setting float:left on your elements. Probably multiple valid paths to take :)
IE7 has some serious limitations in CSS. I would recommend avoiding the shorthand notation and explicitly declaring each property, then validate the CSS sheet here.
I know this is something I'm probably doing wrong, so please don't incinerate me for the thread title.
I'm trying to put together a small personal website using HTML 5/CSS3. I've checked with the w3c validator and the site and CSS file fully conform according to the validator (However the validator has a warning attached that it might not be perfect).
I'm not sure how to explain it without a picture, so here's a comparison of Chrome/Opera/Firefox:
So, you can sorta see how in Chrome the background image is in one non-repeating piece, whereas in Opera/Firefox the image has, oddly, been broken up and placed slightly differently.
I'm confident this is due to an error on my part, but I've had no luck at all figuring out why the image is being mangled in Opera and Firefox.
Here's the CSS that's relevant to this issue:
/* Content Pane */
.content
{ position: absolute;
left: 220px;
width: 800px;
top: 80px;
min-height: 550px;
background-color: rgba(8,12,42,0.85);
}
/* Headers */
.content hgroup
{
background: url("Header_Flat.png") no-repeat left top;
min-height: 38px;
padding-left: 28px;
text-shadow: 0 0 8px #FFA9FF;
color: Black;
text-decoration: none;
}
.content hgroup h1
{
display: block;
}
.content hgroup h3
{
display: inline;
position: relative;
top: -12px;
left: 20px;
text-shadow: 0 0 6px #AFF9FF;
}
.content hgroup h4
{
display: inline;
position: relative;
top: -12px;
left: 20px;
font-size: xx-small;
text-shadow: 0 0 6px #AFF9FF;
}
And the HTML:
<hgroup>
<h1>New Site!</h1>
<h3>Now with Bloom!</h3>
<h4> - Posted Tuesday, May 11th 2010</h4>
</hgroup>
Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong?
EDIT
I changed the CSS a bit, and it halfway-fixed the image (I don't understand why) and the bad alignments (I hadn't yet noticed those).
The changed CSS defs are as follows:
/* Headers */
.content hgroup
{
background: url("Header_Flat.png") no-repeat left top;
min-height: 38px;
position: relative;
text-shadow: 0 0 8px #FFA9FF;
color: Black;
text-decoration: none;
}
.content hgroup h1
{
position: relative;
left: 28px;
}
.content hgroup h3
{
display: inline;
position: relative;
top: -12px;
left: 48px;
text-shadow: 0 0 6px #AFF9FF;
}
.content hgroup h4
{
display: inline;
position: relative;
top: -12px;
left: 48px;
font-size: xx-small;
text-shadow: 0 0 6px #AFF9FF;
}
Got it: You need to give hgroup display: block.
EDIT: Keep in mind that most browsers don't know the new HTML5 elements yet thus they are missing all default style.
You'll need to set the parent element of positioned child elements to relative to make the positioning work.
hgroup{
position: relative;
}
Your h1 needs a width and height, otherwise display: block is a little pointless imho.
These are the two things which jump out at me the most :)
Just took a look in Chrome and Firefox and they're both displaying the same as your error pic.
Take a look here: HTML5 browser support checklist, seems that Firefox and Opera don't support all HTML5 attribute yet, so invariably there will be some weird problems. The browsers don't know all the default styles of HTML5 elements yet, so more reason for strange errors. Can't think of any other fixes other than DavidYell's answer, eveything seems fine in the CSS.
The background image alignment CSS is not ready on all browsers.
It's as if you only had:
.content hgroup
{
background: url("Header_Flat.png") no-repeat;
etc.
Since hgroup has no set size your background image will float around when you're using different browsers at different zooms.
If you are able to set hgroup's size you can design your .png the size of hgroup, transparent and with the blue streaks aligned top left.
I am also looking forward to full CSS3 support in all browsers.
There are so many effects that look so cool in some browsers and then just look mangled in others. I personally prefer 1)Firefox 2)Safari
Problem
I am working on a project to theme a website, but I am not allowed to change the HTML or JavaScript. I can only update the CSS stylesheet and add/update images.
Requrements
I need to style a h3 tag to have an
underline/border after the content.
This h3 will be used multiple times
on the page, so the conent length can
vary
The solution needs to be
cross-browser (IE 6/7/8, FF 3, &
Safari)
Sample Code
<div class="a">
<div class="b"><!-- etc --></div>
<div class="c">
<h3>Sample Text To Have Line Afterwards</h3>
<ul><!-- etc --></ul>
<p class="d"><!-- etc --></p>
</div>
</div>
Sample Output
Sample Text to Have Line Afterwards ______________________________________
Another Example __________________________________________________________
And Yet Another Example __________________________________________________
Notes
I think #sample:after { content: "__________"; } option wouldn't work since that would only be the correct length for one of the tags
I tried a background-image, but if it gave me problems if I gave it one with a large width
Using text-indent didn't see to give me the effect I was looking for
I tried a combination of border-bottom and text-decoration: none, but that didn't seem to work either
Any ideas would be much appreciated!
This will work if class 'c' is always the parent of the h3...
.c {
position: relative;
margin-top: 25px;
border-top: 1px solid #000;
padding: 0px;
}
h3 {
font-size:20px;
margin-top: 0px;
position: absolute;
top: -18px;
background: #fff;
}
It lets the container have the border, then uses absolute positioning to move the h3 over it, and the background color lets it blot out the portion of c's border that it's covering.
try attaching a background image to class c of a repeating underline, then add a background color to the h3 to match the background of the container. I believe that you would have to float the h3 left in order to get the width to collapse. does that make sense?
.c {
background: #ffffff url(underline.gif) left 20px repeat-x;
}
.c h3 {
margin: 0;
padding: 0 0 2px 0;
float: left;
font-size: 20px;
background: #ffffff;
}
.c h3 { display: inline; background-color: white; margin: 0; padding: 0; line-height: 1em; }
.c ul { margin-top: -1px; border-top: 1px solid; padding-top: 1em; /* simulate margin with padding */ }
http://besh.dwich.cz/tmp/h3.html
H3 {
border: 1px solid red;
border-width: 0 0 1px 0;
text-indent: -60px;
}
You need to know the width of the text, but works pretty well.
The only solution I've imagined so far is to make a PNG or GIF image, with 1px height and a very large width (depends on your project, could be like 1x2000px), and do something like this:
h3#main-title { background: url(line.png) no-repeat bottom XYZem; }
where the XYZ you'd set manually, for each title, in 'em' units. But I can't figure out a 100% dynamic solution for this one, without using JS or adding extra markup.
this worked for me
div.c
{
background-image:url(line.gif);background-repeat:repeat-x;width:100%;height:20px;
}
div.c h3
{
height:20px;background-color:white;display:inline;
}
you make the div the width of your content
then you set the background of the h3 to the background of your page. this will then overlap the background imageof the full div. You might want to play with background positioning depending on your image
Can you pad content in the UL tags? If so, this might work:
h3 { display: inline; margin: 0; padding: 0 10px 0 0; float: left;}
ul { display: inline; border-bottom: 1px solid black; }
check source code of: http://nonlinear.cc/lab/friends/elijahmanor.html
then again i have NO IDEA how to control the end of the line.
Assuming that you're working with dynamic content, the best I could suggest is to accept graceful degradation and use a mix of great_llama and Bohdan Ganicky
Imagine:
A long title that will wrap to two lines___________________
and leave you like this in great_llama's solution
and nothing appearing at all with Bohdan Ganicky's solution if ul isn't immediate preceded by ul.
Solution:
.c h3 { display: inline; background-color: white; margin: 0; padding: 0; line-height: 1em; }
.c + * { margin-top: -1px; border-top: 1px solid; padding-top: 1em; /* simulate margin with padding */ }
We care about IE6, but accept that this is an aesthetic touch and IE6 users will not suffer. If you can't get the designer to accept this AND you can't alter the HTML, then do something else (before you find another job ;))
Here's a better answer:
.c {
background: url('line.png') repeat-x 0 20px;
}
H3 {
background-color: white;
display: inline;
position: relative;
top: 1px;
}
Use a small, 1px height, couple px wide image as your underline and occlude it with a background color on your H3.
h3:after {
content: '___________';
}
