On this page, the footer does not display correctly in Chrome 17. All the links should be evenly spaced on a single line, but instead it looks like this:
It looks fine in IE and Firefox, does anoyone have a suggestion for how I can fix the problem in Chrome without breaking it in one of those other browsers?
update this id in your css --
ul#footerLinks li {
display: table-cell;
width: 160px;
text-align: center;
padding-top: 5px;
padding-bottom: 5px;
float: left;
}
Without the display:table-cell also it should work.. so.. its redundant - you can remove it if you want.
Hm... One time when I loaded the page, it looked fine. The next time, it looked like the screenshot you have above. It seems like a Chrome rendering bug. I'd try using display:inline-block instead of table-cell. Alternatively, just render them as inline and center the menu horizontally. The way they are spaced now isn't very rhythmic, in my opinion.
Use float:left; in your anchor tags.

I'm having some wierd css issue making a website for a client which only occur if using google chrome. on firefox, explorer and edge, it does work fine.
Basicly, some code I used several times in the same page, works everytime except for one. I really cannot see where I did wrong:
<h2 class="big caps" style="text-align:left">WHAT WILL YOU LEARN?</h2>
page is here: if you scroll down to the middle of the page you'll see what i'm talking about. look at it with google chrome first, and then with any other browser. (or source code # line 370)
What am I doing wrong?
Update your .one_full class like below
.one_full {
float: left;
width: 100%;
}
Just add to .one_full class clear:both and it will work.
you can add float:left or clear:both to .one_full
.one_full {
width: 100%;
clear: both;
/*or float: left;*/
}
I've spent a few good hours debugging myself, and a few good hours researching but nothing seems to be solving my problem. I have a caption in my header that is supposed to be cut-off at the bottom, which looks fine in Safari and Chrome, but in Firefox it is positioned much higher:
First window: Firefox
Second window: Safari (chrome renders the same)
I spent about an hour and a half changing everything around in my CSS thinking it had to do with other elements around it, but made no progress. Finally I decided to make an extremely simplified version to see what the problem is:
First window: Firefox
Second window: Safari (chrome renders the same)
Same exact thing. I have a CSS reset applied so that is not the problem. I've tried setting the line-height, but that didn't fix it. I've tried every value for the CSS display property. Nothing is fixing this.
HTML/CSS for test example above:
<div class="test">
<h1>Test</h1>
</div>
.test {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 185px;
line-height: 185px;
border: 1px solid red;
}
.test h1 {
font-size: 12em;
}

Quick link to CSS stylesheet
In short, I need to figure out how to get both browsers to display the text at exactly the same height
Try and specify a font-family in your stylesheet though it's not pixel perfect
#header .youAreHere h1
{
...
line-height:1;
}
line-height must be set on h1, unless you have something like
* {line-height:inherit;}
Even if you take a webfont and define the line-height of your element you can have variations due to the line-heights of the other elements.
What works for me is to define the line-height of the body on the top of using a webfont.
Also do not forget to reset margins and paddings for all elements you're using. A good trick is to use a reset.css before your actual style sheet (you can find some at http://www.cssreset.com/)
body{
line-height: 1;
}
I have a problem with margin-top in IE.
I have given a link a margin-top of 2px to align it out correctly in Chrome. But this caused a offset in IE9.
Some code:
CSS
.show_cart{
display: block!important;
float:left;
padding-left: 10px;
margin-top: 2px;
}
HTML
<div class="show_cart">
Toon Winkelwagen
</div>
I hope there is a quickfix but I couldn't find it.
EDIT - Sorry I edit it here but I can't find the code thingy in the comment box. Anyway, I changed it to this based on the answer which stated that I should use the vertical align. Chrome is still displaying properly but in IE its now off by 2px to the TOP.
.vmCartModule .show_cart{
display: inline!important;
float:left;
padding-left: 10px;
}
.vmCartModule .show_cart a{
vertical-align: baseline
}
There is more to it than just a margin. You should also consider font-size, vertical-align and more when you trying to line-up elements with texts. I would not recommend calculating pixels, it will never be consistent in all browsers and very hard to maintain. Instead, try to stick to "vertical-align: baseline", that is more deterministic. Using it you can be sure that your texts are always properly aligned.
This sounds exactly like IE's famous double margin bug, there is an easy fix as described here.
Try changing display: block; to display: inline;. Or you can find another solution to it (there are plenty) or you can use the mentioned HTML5 boilerplate or something similar like headjs, etc.
Just in case if you are using using HTML5 Boilerplate http://html5boilerplate.com/
You can use different value for the same class for IE9 -
.ie9 .show_cart{
margin-top: 0px;
}
Or only if you wish to use jQuery for this, you can write -
if ($.browser.msie && parseInt($.browser.version) == 9){
$('.show_cart').css({'margin-top':'0px'});
}
I'm trying to create a breezebrowser template (used for generating image galleries locally, outputs HTML). I've taken the HTML from my wordpress template and managed to generate the following gallery http://uploads.peasyphotos.com/20100607t-candids/gallery/ but each image goes on a new line and i don't know why, i presume it's in the CSS. What should I be looking for in the CSS to try and stop this, or what can I put around my template code to disable the CSS for that part?
Thanks
So i've got a posible answer for you.
First you have to add this css-styles to the a tag of the pictures:
display: inline-block;
height: 150px;
widht: 150px;
text-align: center;
vertical-align: top;
It works with Firefox 3.6. I'm not sure if it will work with oure lovley IE :P
I hope i could help!
In you css files, you have one file called reset.css. At line number 57, you have a one line called display block. comment it out a see. may not be a nice view. but images wont go next line.
For the anchor element having the photos use the float like this. This would take care.
float:left;
your images parent anchor tag do not have correct css. Put a class images over the anchor tags and use following css for them.
a.images {
border-bottom:1px solid #D8048D;
color:#D8048D;
display:block;
float:left;
height:159px;
margin:0 10px;
text-decoration:none;
width:100px;
}
Firstly I would recommend validating your html.
Secondly, I would suggest putting the images in a container element of some sort: possibly an unordered list. There are serious accessibility issues around having a series of links running into each other like this, with no separating non white-space characters.
Thirdly, I would use a css class on the list, and style it like this:
ul.gallery { list-style: none}
ul.gallery li { float: left; clear: none; list-style: none}
I've styled some unordered HTML lists and their heading to look like this in Firefox:
alt text http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/711/screenshot001nij.png
Unfortunately, in IE7, they look like this:
alt text http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/8343/screenshot002e.png
The relevant HTML is
<div class="list-column">
<h4>Types de pêche</h4>
<ul>
<li>Pêche en lac</li>
<li>Pêche en Rivière</li>
</ul>
</div>
And the CSS is:
.list-column {
float: left;
margin-right: 20px;
width: 20em;
}
div.list-column h4 {
background-color: #FDD041;
padding: 5px !important;
}
ul li {
background-image: url(images/arrow.gif);
background-position: 0 11px;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
list-style-image: none;
list-style-position: outside;
list-style-type: none;
margin-bottom: 6px;
margin-left: -20px;
margin-top: 2px;
padding: 2px 0 2px 18px;
}
I suspect the fact that the div containing the list is floated left is probably the root of my problems, but I'm not sure how to workaround the poor display in IE7?
Update:
I tried adding a 'zoom: 1' property to the 'ul' elements to see if giving the elements 'layout' would fix the problem in IE, but it didn't.
The problem is definitely not related to the rounded corners. I turned them off temporarily but it didn't change anything in IE (apart from the appearance of the corners).
Thanks,
Don
IE and the other browsers have a different default style sheet.
IE indents list items by putting a ‘margin-left’ on the <ul>. The other browsers put a ‘padding-left’ on the <ul>.
So if you want to look the same in all browsers, set both ‘margin-left’ and ‘padding-left’ explicitly on <ul>. In your case, you would want to add something like “margin: 0; padding: 24px” on your “div.list-column ul, ul.round” rule.
(The default list ‘margin-left’ in IE is, to be precise, ‘30pt’.)
A common solution for this is setting the width of the element. This will make IE everything inside the bounds of that width.
I think this is a case of IE-7 auto indending the li's
the easiest way to debug this is to install IE-8; switch to compatible ie-7 mode.
then launch the developer tools from the tools menu
You can then inspect the individual elements and check if there are hidden padding or margins being applied
I think that it can depend from different default padding on ie and firefox. Try to use reset.css in your code if you haven't already done it.
P.s. in ie8 you have developer tools which are similar to firebug. Try to use them and see if you can't understand the issue...
