Remove space between 2 tables HTML CSS and image removes background image - html

New here, I am creating a website and there seems to be a problem with a table I made to hold an image and a table I made to hold content. Content on left image on right. When I float the Image table right the content table moves completely underneath it. When I float it left there is too much space in between the 2. The code in question is table and table 3.
I want it to display the image block next to the link buttons and the context block underneath the buttons but next to the image block.
The second problem is my logo heading which is an image is removing the background image.

Look I am sure you get the just of what it should look like. Plus the white background should have a lilac image I placed into the body as background.

I think the two main problems are:
You are using tags that don't exist and
You aren't considering the width of the borders when setting your sizes
You set the width of the body to 800px, the first table to 640px, and that table3 to 150px. But the borders on both are 5px wide. 640 + 10 (left and right border of the first table) +10 (left and right border of the second table) + 150 = 810. Even if the tags were correct they're too wide to go next to each other.
Change
<table3>Ad Space</table3>
and
<b>IMAGE/CONTENT</b>
<b>IMAGE/CONTENT</b>
<b>IMAGE/CONTENT</b><br>
<b>IMAGE/CONTENT</b>
<b>IMAGE/CONTENT</b>
<b>IMAGE/CONTENT</b>
To
<div id="adCol">Ad Space</div>
and
<div id="#imgDiv">
<img />
<img />
<img /><br />
<img />
<img />
<img />
</div>
In your CSS change "b" to "#imgDiv img", "table" to "#imgDiv", and "table3" to "#adCol". Then either reduce the width of the borders or make one of them at least 10px smaller in width.
Don't forget to also remove the table2 tag and change whatever you've called b1 and b2 to use real HTML tags and change b1 and b2 in your CSS to class names or ids.
Also, consider not setting the width of the body. You probably don't need that.

In this case I see what your trying to accomplish but you should really use divs it would make it easier.
But why don't you just build (1) table with a layout like this below and place / position it in your content. Instead of creating multiple tables. You can still use CSS to add your effects.
<div id="apDiv3">
<table width="100%" height="335" border="1">
<tr>
<td width="87%" height="207">CONTENT</td>
<td width="13%" rowspan="2"><span class="style5">AD SPACE(Image)</span></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td height="50">Footer</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>

We don't have tag <table2>. You should use <table>.
If you want to bring two elements near each other, you have to create a div and set the display to flex and bring 2 or more elements into it. You have to set the width of elements to 50% if you want to bring 2 elements. If you want more, you must divide 100 to the number of elements. For example, if you want 5 elements next to each other you must set the width of elements to 20%.

Mobile Responsive Divs

I have created 3 divs that line side-by-side on 1 row on desktop view but I would like each div to stack vertically on mobile devices only. I can't seem to figure out the correct CSS code/media query for this.

You need to use media queries in your css to produce responsive layouts. It can't be done using inline styles.
At a minimum, and from a mobile first approach:
<div>
SOURCE 1
</div>
<div>
SOURCE 2
</div>
<div>
SOURCE 3
</div>
<style>
#media(min-width:768px){
div {
float:left;
width:30%;
margin-right:5px;
}
}
</style>
Here you have three stacked, full width divs. Once the browser or device is equal to or beyond the defined breakpoint of 768px, the new css takes effect to produce three side-by-side divs as defined in the css.
See example. You should use percentage dimensions
.col{
height: 100px;
background-color: red;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
#media (min-width: 960px){
.col{
float:left;
width: 30%
margin-left: 10%;
}
.col:last-child{
margin-left: 0%;
}
}
<div class="col"></div>
<div class="col"></div>
<div class="col"></div>
.block{ text-align: center; width:30%; margin:0px; padding:50px 0; float:left;}
#media only screen and (max-width: 767px) {
.block{ width:100%;}
}
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<div class="block" style=" background: #f00;">
SOURCE 1
</div>
<div class="block" style=" background: #ccc;">
SOURCE 2
</div>
<div class="block" style=" background: #444;">
SOURCE 3
</div>
Please check hope so this will help full for you
There is different options to do that, but both use media queries.
You can either put each div on display: inline-block on desktop and change them to display: block on mobile. Maybe set a width: 33% for each div (otherwise if your div are too long they won't be side by side).
Or the other solution:
Put your parent element on display: flex on desktop and put it back on display: block on mobile.
.sub { background-color: rgba(200,200,200,0.6); box-sizing: border-box; border-right: 1px solid black; padding: 5px; }
.first { display: flex; }
.first .sub { width: 33.3%; }
.second { display: block; margin-top: 20px; }
.second .sub { width: 100%; }
/* media queries for mobile */
#media (min-width: 320px) and (max-width: 480px) {
.first { display: block; }
.first .sub { width: 100%; }
}
<div class="first">
<div class="sub">One</div>
<div class="sub">Two</div>
<div class="sub">Three</div>
</div>
<div class="second">
<div class="sub">One</div>
<div class="sub">Two</div>
<div class="sub">Three</div>
</div>
use <li> instead of <div>, then use display:inline-block; or display:block;

Centering multiple <p> tags within in a div

I have several different sections in which I'm trying to center a set of tabs. One set of tabs I've tried to put in an unordered list and the other set I've tried with several <p> tags within a <div> but nothing seems to be working. I know others have had this problem but I haven't been able to find it so I apologize if this is a repetitive question.
I've tried <position: absolute>, <display: inline>, and others. I just can't seem to get it. Thanks in advance!
Also, they're not supposed to functioning tabs at the moment because I don't want to have to worry about jQuery right now, just supposed to look like them!

To horizontally center p's within a div, you can make the parent div text-align: center;, and the inner p's display: inline-block;
Inside of #bottommenu, remove absolute positioning (there are better ways to place a footer), and add text-align: center

Vertically Aligning Text in a Div

im trying to create a website, but im having trouble with 2 parts;
1. I am unable to vertically align the Website title vertically so that its is in the middle of the div.
2. Im trying to left align the menu table with the header div right above it and make it stay as such for all browser types.
I have tried to do different things to get both the above to work, but nothing seems to work and am unable to align either of the elements. Could someone help me please.

I have tried messing with the positions (abs, fixed, relative) as well as with the margins, but nothing seems to move either of the elements. Thanks in advance.
One way to do it is through padding:
#headerdiv{
width: 200px;
margin:0px auto;
border: 1px solid red;
width: 70%;
height: 70px;
padding-top:30px;
}
Here height has been changed and the rest to 100 has been added to padding-top
There are many ways to do that, example:
http://jsfiddle.net/ovLhjmwb/
For example: Is more easy to have a container that contains all the child elements (and give it a width)
.container {
width: 400px;
margin: auto;
}
Also, vertical aligned text, is a little difficult to do, the easiest way is to use the vertical-align property (that comes with table elements)
#headerdiv table{
vertical-align: middle;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
}
So I guess there are some more probs. For example use more HTML5 tags and not so many of ID's or classes. Keep your DOM-tree as simple as possible. You will get a better structure and your xode is more readable. BTW I fixed your problems in my solution as well.

Centering a div; not sure what to do

I've been trying for hours to center a table div on a website I'm creating, and I can't figure it out. I've tried using margin: 0 auto with a defined width, and that doesn't work. I've also 'margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto;", but that didn't work either. I'm really not sure what else to try.
Also, I'm trying to fix my footer to stay on the bottom of the page. It'll look great on one page, coming after all the content, but on another page it will be right on top of the content. Should I make another topic for that, or can someone help me out with that in this one?
HTML for the page with the table:

u have some problems with the globe styling like u style the table and it's element together
Any way here's the solution in js fiddle
http://jsfiddle.net/phonexdoda/ze6dddoh/
i changed the #content style to
#content {
width: 1020px;
text-align: center;
vertical-align: middle;
position: relative;
}
add $tablename style
#tablename{
margin: auto;
}
and last the table styling
table, th, td {
border: 1px solid black;
border-collapse: collapse;
text-align: center;
padding: 5px;
position: relative;
text-align: center;
vertical-align: middle;
}
and for the #name
#name {
text-align: center;
vertical-align: middle;
position: relative;
}
And the footer need this
#footer {
position: relative;
clear: both;
margin: 5px;
padding: 5px;
height: 60px;
background-color: #6cf;
border: 2px solid black;
}
If you use text-align: center; and vertical-align: middle; in the content class it will try and format the contents of the div to those attributes. These don't apply to the actual div itself.
Create a new div around the content div, like content_container and apply text-align: center; and vertical-align: middle; to the class.
This will center and vertically align your content div.

Large White Space Between Footer and Background Image

I just have a quick question about my website. I have a huge whitespace between my footer and the end of my background image, about 500 or so pixels. I can't seem to find the problem and any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Jacob

When you use position: relative; the browser thinks, "Ok, I'm going to keep the element's technical location the same, but I'm going to make it appear to be in a different spot." You have the following CSS on your .des element:
.des {
position: relative;
bottom: 1564px;
}
This says, "Keep .des there, but make it appear 1564 pixels higher (further away from the original bottom)". This results in a blank space, which is the height of the element, showing up where the element technically still is, even though it appears elsewhere.
You also have the following CSS on your #footer element:
#footer {
position: relative;
bottom: -100px;
}
This makes it appear 100px lower on the page, but keeps the original spot there, and now blank.
Unless I'm mistaken, these two gaps combine for a whopping 1038px of blank space on your page. The solution? You're probably looking for position: absolute;, which doesn't keep the original spot for the element. In fact, I think that if you changed the positioning part of the CSS on .des to be
.des {
position: absolute;
top: 260px;
}
or something close to that, it would get rid of most of the gap, minus the 100px on #footer. Here's a JSFiddle, if you'd care to have a look.
The height of your background image in your CSS is set to height: 1700px; but the background image that you link to is only 1200px high. That would seem to account for the 500px difference
