I'm trying to make a horizontal nav bar on my website and I want to use CSS to position it closely under my websites name header and a portion of the background of the nav bar behind the icon to the left. Here is my code
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Oldnut.com</title>
<link href="css/main.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<script type="text/javascript">
var currPic=1;
var totPics=2;
var keepTime;
function setupPicChange()
{keepTime=setTimeout("changePic()", 5000);}
function changePic()
{currPic++; if(currPic>totPic)currPic=1;
document.getElementByld("image").src="image"+currPic+".jpg";
setupPicChange();}
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad="setupPicChange();">
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="content">
<div id="banner">
<div id="img"><img src="images/Walnut.png" class="nut-image"></div>
<div id="top">Oldnut.com</div>
</div>

<div>
<img id="image" src="images/image1.jpg" alt="picture">
</div>
<div id="deals">
</div>
</div>
<div id="foot"
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Not much to see here I guess it's obvious what I am doing, and my CSS
#charset "UTF-8";
body{background-image:url(../images/bg_bodytakeover.png);
}
#wrapper{
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
width:1000px;
}
.nut-image {
z-index: 1000;
position: relative;
}
#content{
margin-left:10px;
margin-right:10px;
padding-bottom:20px;
box-shadow:0px 0px 20px 3px;
border-radius:4px;
background-color:#FFFFFF;
height:600px;
position: relative;
}
#banner{
margin:auto;
position: relative;
}
#img{
float:left;
}
#top{
float: left;
color: #FF6600;
text-align: left;
font-family: "Gill Sans", "Gill Sans MT", "Myriad Pro", "DejaVu Sans Condensed", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 75pt;
text-shadow: 2px 2px #FFFFFF;
text-transform: uppercase;
}
nav {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
background: #FF6600;
top: 110px;
}
#list-nav{
list-style-type:none;
margin:0;
padding:0;
width:calc(100% - 192px);
float:right;
top: 125px;
}
#list-nav li{
float:left;
width: 25%;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
#list-nav li a{
text-decoration:none;
width:100%;
background:#FF6600;
color:#eee;
float:left;
text-align:center;
display:block;
}
#list-nav li a:hover{
background:#1d8ed0;
color:#000;
}
Now I want to have my nav bar very closely under the giant header text and the orange line background to go under the icon to the end of the white content border. I've tried all sorts of padding and margin mixing but its really just making a mess. I have looked around extensively but nothing seems to be working for me what works for others. Or I can't get all of what I'm looking to do. Anyone got any tips?
EDIT:I've tried a lot of padding to get the nav bar to stretch the screen but it keeps breaking the even separation of the buttons and their hover effects, is there another way to sort them evenly?
*SECOND EDIT NEW QUESTION*
I am trying to have my images change back and forth between the two after 5 seconds. I have seen code from other sites and don't see why it isn't working. Anyone notice what is wrong?
Update for comment:
I've updated the fiddle here to have exactly what you want. If you can't use calc on the list items and since you have a set width of 1000px, you can hardcode the widths in by doing this: width: (1000px - 192px) / 2, which would be width: 202px
Original answer:
If you will always have 4 menu items, set width: 25% (100% / 4) on each #list-nav li. Here's an updated fiddle
I also set the margin and padding on the li elements to 0.
Is this what you are looking for?

I am creating a web page. Even though i have added margin:0px and padding:0px still some blank space is present at the top of my web page. here is my css code for body section.Any solutions?Thanx in advance..
<html >
<head>
<style>
html {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#navR
{float:right;
margin-right:0px;
}
#mR{
float: right;
}
.bodyl{
height: 100%;
background-color: #F8FADE;

font-size:15px;
margin:0px;

clear: both;
}
.local{
background-color:#DEB887;
margin-left:0px;
margin-right:0px;
margin-top:0px;
margin-bottom:0px;
padding:0px;
width:100%;
vertical-align: baseline;
}
.heading{
font-size: 250%;
color:#5B3205;
margin-top:10px;
font-style: oblique;

</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="local">
<p id="mR"><strong>My name</strong></p>
<h3 id="navR"> <a>logout</a> </h3>
<h1 class="heading">My space</h1>
</div> </br>
</body>
</html>
You are using a <h1> tag. This text has a default margin set by the browser. You can set a margin-top: 0px in your .heading class. That will fix the problem.
edit: In your case you should replace margin-top: 10px with margin-top: 0px
Please also set margin to 0 on your html attribute
body, html {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
Then it should work perfectly for you, as it does for me. It could also be possible that you have a child attribute that has a certain margin and so it could lead to that white space.
i have made a simple website using a free template. i am confused because the images on my version are not showing but the images on the demo version are working and both have exactly the same css files and html because i copy pasted. i will post them below. my confusion lies in the fact that i dont see any of the images reffered to in either the html or the css stylesheet. the styling is there for the images but no link to the file location. 2 questions.
this is what the site should look like:
http://www.quackit.com/html/templates/download/bryantsmith/greenmountain/
this is what my site looks like:
https://cherry-cupcake-30790.herokuapp.com/
as you can see background, background to the navbar and main images are missing but other styling and css are implemented.
why are the images not showing on my version?
why are the images showing on the demo version 0hen there seems to be no reference to the actual file location of the image (only styling of the image)?
thanks.

<h3>Template Notes</h3>
<p>The main image can be changed by either replacing the current image with another one of the same size (900x402), or using a new one of what ever dimensions you'd like. If you choose the latter, you must open up style.css and change the dimensions of #mainpic, as well as the file name if that is different. If you would like to move the heading around in the above image, find "#mainpic h1" in style.css and modify it's "left" and "top" properties, this is also true for the h2 tag.</p>
<p> </p>
<h3>More information</h3>
<p>I decided to leave the content portion open for the templates users to do as they wish with a blank canvas. I don't like to restrict my users too much, and for this reason I leave the defining of any content related styles to you.</p>

for problem 1, because your website's css is empty, nothing in. The css link is https://cherry-cupcake-30790.herokuapp.com/assets/application-e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855.css .
for problem 2, the image link refer is not in the html, but in the css file.
#mainpic {
background-image: url(images/main.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
width: 900px;
height: 354px;
}
the image link is http://www.quackit.com/html/templates/download/bryantsmith/greenmountain/images/main.jpg
I am learning CSS by my onw, and already spent some hours on this, without solution...
I need to put a text over a image, but there is two images in the same line (inline-block). Please, see my code (example):
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<style type="text/css">
.payrow { display:inline-block; width:100%; margin-bottom:14px; text-align:center; }
.paybtn { display:inline-block; margin:0 10px 0 10px; text-align:center; }
.paybtn img { width:250px; height:120px; margin:3px; border:0; filter:alpha(opacity=80); opacity:.80; }
.paybtn a:hover img { filter:alpha(opacity=100); opacity:1; }
.vtotal { font:bold 20px Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#7A7A7A; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="payrow">
<div class="paybtn">
<img src="paybtn1.gif" alt="PayPal1">
<div class="vtotal">Total: U$ 510.00</div>
</div>
<div class="paybtn">
<img src="paybtn2.gif" alt="PayPal2">
<div class="vtotal">Total: U$ 580.00</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
This is the result of my code:
And this is what I really want:
Please, can someone give me an idea of what to do?
Thanks!
You could use negative margins
.vtotal {
font:bold 20px Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color:#7A7A7A;
position:relative;
margin-top:-40px; /*adjust the pixels accordingly*/
}

I am working on a project that is rather time sensitive. The task is to make a micro site that users can access through their smartphones, where they will be able to access a number of movies. They will scan a QR code (I know they are dead, I didn't plan the campaign). and land on this site. I am not a fontender, but know my way around html + css and I have been able to find a few things around the internet, but now I've come to a dead end. I am optimizing the site for max-width 640px with a 100% scalable width down to min-width of 320px. I've gotten it all working quite well on my test site, implemented fonts etc. but I run into a problem when I am trying to place the div #textbox inside the #sunny div, on top of the #image div. I have managed to center the #textbox, but I can't get it to align vertically and "stay" vertically aligned no matter what size screen the user views the page at.
Here is my code and css:
HTML:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD XHTML Mobile 1.2//EN"
"http://www.openmobilealliance.org/tech/DTD/xhtml-mobile12.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/style.css">
</head>
<body>
<div id="container">
<div id="header">
<img id="logo" src="images/logo.png">
</div>
<div id="sunny">
<div id="image">
<img src="images/1.jpg">
</div>
<div id="textbox">
<p>Jacket Name</p>
See Details
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
And here is the CSS:
#font-face { font-family: FuturaStdBook; src: url('../fonts/FuturaStd-Book.otf'); }
#font-face { font-family: FuturaStdBook; font-weight: bold; src: url('../fonts/FuturaStd-Bold.otf'); }
#container
{
background: #fff;
font-family: FuturaStdBook, Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
max-width:640px;
min-width:320px;
margin:0 auto;
}
#header
{
padding: 20px;
}
#logo
{
width:33%;
display:block;
margin:auto;
}
#sunny
{
width: 100%;
max-width:640px;
min-width:320px;
float:left;
position:relative;
}
#textbox {
background-color:white;
width:33%;
left:33%;
top:30px;
min-width: 70px;
height:50px;
text-align: center;
z-index:1;
position: absolute;
text-transform:uppercase;
padding-top:10px;
padding-bottom:10px;
color:#a3a3a3;
}
#textbox p {
font-size:14px;
line-height:0;
}
#textbox a {
font-size:12px;
color:#666666;
}
#image {
width:100%
position: absolute;
}
#image img{
width:100%;
height: auto;
}
N.B: Please bare in mind that I need to repeat the code, and have like 7 or 8 "identical" areas under each other, so the CSS have to be applicable to this design.
Hope someone is able to help me out :)
Seems like its a case of using too many divs. What you need to do is to place your elements in a div with position:relative, and then position the elements themselves as position:absolute and go about positioning them as you'd like.
Sorry to ask the same question many before me have asked... I have read lots of these and they all say change
margin: 0;
There is a gap between the two divs (div class ="heady" and div class="menus") I just can't seem to get rid of the white space, hopefully it is clear enough, let me know if its not.
Thanks James.

Here is a link to a jsFiddle.
Browsers apply default styles to ceratin elements. In this case it's ul that gets some margin. Note that this margin separates the divs even though the divs themselves have no margins.
Use
ul { margin: 0; }
or include a reset stylesheet
Are you using the Firebug plugin for Firefox? Even if you don't already use firefox, you should download it along with the firebug plugin. With Firebug you can look at an element in your source code and see the styles that are being applied, the layout (width/height, padding, margin), and even manipulate the styles to view what a change in your CSS would do.
I HIGHLY recommend it!
Download Firefox
Download Firebug
.heady { display:block; }
.heady { margin:0; padding:0; }
.heady { line-height:100%; /* or even 0 (if no text present) */ }
the content can fool here, but 1 or all 3 of those should tame the beast across browsers.
google for a "css reset" too
