I have a div centered on my page (width and height set, margin:auto). I am then adding images into it, and each image launches its own Shadowbox. However, there are two problems:
The shadowbox - while taking up the entire screen - is offset to the right side of the page. How do I get it back to center as if there was no div?
Each successive time I open a shadowbox on any given image (either all the same image or different image on each open), the shadowbox gets smaller. I didn't have this problem until I put the images inside the div.
You can see it in action here.
When I run it using the available Firefox consoles, I see a lot of warnings about fetching the height and width (presumably of the image). That partially explains the problems, but I'm not sure of the solution.
Source:
<html>
<head>
<link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../shadowbox-3.0.3/shadowbox.css">
<script type="text/javascript" src="../shadowbox-3.0.3/shadowbox.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
Shadowbox.init();
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="pageDiv" style="background-color:#FFFFFF">
<img src="http://www.sport2play.com/baseball/pics/1.jpg" width="100px"/>
</div>
</body>
</html>
For what it's worth, the CSS:
#font-face{
font-family:"Officina";
src:url(OfficinaSansStd-Book.otf);
}
body{
font-family:"Officina";
background-color:#AAAAAA;
}
img{
box-shadow: 3px 3px 7px #777;
background-color:#FFFFFF;
}
canvas{
background-color:#FFFFFF;
}
div{
width:500;
height:647;
margin:auto;
}
Thoughts on how to fix these two problems?
You need to use doctype:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
It solves your 1st problem.

I'm trying to make a fairly simple site which there's a div with some text inside, centered both horizontally and vertically on the page.
I wouldn't have thought this would be that difficult to do, but something quite weird's happening. Here's the source that does work. Let's call this source A.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Josefin+Sans" rel="stylesheet">
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Jacob Garby</title>
</head>
<body>
<div class="wrap">
<div class="content">Test</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
and here's the source that doesn't work. Let's call this source B.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Jacob Garby</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Josefin+Sans" rel="stylesheet">
</head>
<body>
<div class="wrap">
<div class="content">Test</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
They both use the same stylesheet, which is here:
* {
font-family: 'Josefin Sans';
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
div.wrap {
display:flex;
justify-content:center;
align-items:center;
width:100%;
height:100%;
}
div.content {
border: 1px solid red;
text-align: center;
width: 100%;
}
And the problem is that the div.wrap is only vertically aligned when I link to the stylesheets outside of the html head tags. This is the only difference between the source that works and the source that doesn't.
I know that you're meant to include source inside the head tags and that's why I think it's so strange that it only works when I do the opposite of this.
I would include a link to some exampls on jsfiddle or something, but the problem is how I'm including the stylesheets, which jsfiddle doesn't let me change.
I've tried this on all of the browsers I have (Opera, Firefox, and Chrome,) and the problem persists between them.
Is this some sort of HTML bug? Or am I making some obvious mistake?
Here are some screenshots.
Source A:
Source B:
I viewed the source in a web browser, and even when I link to the stylesheet outside the head, it seems to put it in there. So, in both examples, when actually viewed, the stylesheet is automatically being put in the head tags.
If my question isn't clear, it's basically this:
Why is this strange behavior happening, and how can I fix it?
It's not strange but your HTML is invalid by doing it that way in A.
Browsers are required to do the best they can with invalid markup. The problem with that, of course, is that you are relying on the browser to guess correctly at your intentions so don't write invalid markup.
So I'm basically wondering if the code I wrote is supposed to just pop up a page with "This web page uses an external style sheet", in blue font. I've been trying for hours to get my CSS to link to my HTML code and finally I did but all it was, was blue font. P.S I'm supposed to turn this in tonight so need to be sure!
What it looks like
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>External Styles</title>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="color.css">
</head>
<body>
<p>This web page uses an external style sheet.</p>
</body>
</html>
css:
body { backround-color: #0000FF;
color: #FFFFFF;
}
No it is not. It suppose to show with White Color font with a light background.
This is some other css or browser plugin's impact.
You can try on the fiddle first to verify what it can look like at a clean state.
https://jsfiddle.net/
First of all you have wrongly typed background-color.
The code you provided is giving you the Blue background with white text.
HTML Code
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Fiddle</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>
<div id="txtPopup">
<p>This web page uses an external style sheet</p>
</div>
</body>
</html>
CSS Code
body {
color: #FFFFFF;
background-color: #0000FF
}
OK so I have been having issues getting sprites to work on my website, so I decided to rewrite the w3 sprite tutorial from scratch to see what I was doing wrong. Here is the code I wrote:
test.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Document</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>
<img src="img_navsprites.gif" alt="">
<img src="img_trans.gif" alt="" id="home"><br><br>
<img src="img_trans.gif" alt="" id="next">
</body>
</html>
style.css
#home{
width:46px;
height:44px;
background: url(img_navsprites.gif) 0 0;
}
#next{
width:43px;
height:44px;
background: url(img_navsprites.gif) -91px 0;
}
When I open this in Chrome the first image shows up but not the separate images. I have no idea what I have done wrong, by every account this code should work.
If you will look closely to example on W3 then you will see that you need "img_trans.gif" to be proper img file as well. It is just one pixel image in their example.
IMG element displays 'alt' attribute, which is empty in your code, when your 'src' is incorrect.
I am in trouble with positioning and photo resizing. Here is the picture:
1 block - it's a photo and should be always visible all (without scrollbar!), and the 2 and 3 block size depends on window size. How should i do that?
Just had a play.
Try this.
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$photoheight = $('.photo').css('width');
$('.photo').css('height', $photoheight);
$(window).resize(function(){
$photoheight = $('.photo').css('width');
$('.photo').css('height', $photoheight);
});
});
</script>
<style>
.photo {
min-width:200px;
width:25%;
max-width:400px;
background-image:url('http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KWHpPk4f-kM/TdZY_dxWMRI/AAAAAAAAADc/6FHVzBLY-4o/s1600/flower-1.jpg');
background-position:center center;}
</style>
<body>
<div class="photo"></div>
</body>
</html>
You can use min-width and max-width if you place and centre the image with CSS but I don't know how you could do it vertically.
Possibly JavaScript/jQuery script.
I have a very simple holding page I built centering a div, anchor and image. For some reason it will not center in IE8 (either mode), and I am hoping someone can tell me why. I haven't had a chance to try it in other IE browsers. I have tried this in Chrome and FF3 where it works OK.
<html>
<head>
<title>Welcome</title>
<style>
#pageContainer {width:300px;margin:0 auto;text-align:center;}
#toLogo{border:none; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="pageContainer">
<img src="LOGO_DNNsmall.png" id="toLogo">
</div>
</body>
</html>
I said it was really simple. :)
Thank you,
Brett
Do you really want your page to work in quirks mode? Your HTML centers fine once I added doctype to to force standards mode:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">
<head>
<title>Welcome</title>
<style>
#pageContainer {width:300px;margin:0 auto;text-align:center;}
#toLogo{border:none; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="pageContainer">
<a href="http://portal.thesit.com" id="toSite">
<img src="http://stackoverflow.com/content/img/so/logo.png" id="toLogo"></a> </div>
</body>
</html>
The margin of auto on the sides of the div leave it up to the browser to decide where it goes. There is nothing telling the browser that the div should be centered in the body, or left or right aligned. So it's up to the browser. If you add a directive to the body, your problem will be solved.
<html>
<head>
<title>Welcome</title>
<style>
body { text-align: center;}
#pageContainer {width:300px; margin:0px auto;
text-align:center; border:thin 1px solid;}
#toLogo{border:none; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="pageContainer">
<a href="http://portal.thesit.com" id="toSite">
<img src="LOGO_DNNsmall.png" id="toLogo">
</a>
</div>
</body>
</html>
I added a 1px border to the div so that you could see what was happening more clearly.
You're leaving it up to the browser because it's in quirks mode. To remove quirks mode, add a doctype definition to the top, like so:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">
<head>
<title>Welcome</title>
<style>
#pageContainer {width:300px; margin:0px auto;
text-align:center; border:thin 1px solid;}
#toLogo{border:none; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="pageContainer">
<a href="http://portal.thesit.com" id="toSite">
<img src="LOGO_DNNsmall.png" id="toLogo">
</a>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Now you'll be able to see your 300 px div center on the page.
Add text-align:center to the body. That should do it when combined with the margin:0 auto on the div.
You can center without using the text-align:center on the body by wrapping the entire page contents in a full-width container & then setting text-align:center on that as well.
<html>
<head>
<title>Welcome</title>
<style>
#container {text-align:center;border:1px solid blue}
#pageContainer {width:300px; margin:0 auto; border:1px solid red}
#toLogo{border:none; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="container">
<div id="pageContainer">
<img src="LOGO_DNNsmall.png" id="toLogo">
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
(I added the container div). It doesn't really change anything though... just an extra div. You still need all the same css properties.
You probably want to change it to the following:
<html>
<head>
<title>Welcome</title>
<style>
body { text-align: center; }
#pageContainer {width:300px;margin:0 auto;}
#toLogo{border:none; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="pageContainer">
<img src="LOGO_DNNsmall.png" id="toLogo">
</div>
</body>
</html>
The text-align:center; is moved to the body. If you want to place other aligned left content within the div #pageContainer, then you'll need text-align:left; for that class. This is the solution that I have used in quite a few websites now and seems to work across all browsers (it's what Dreamweaver uses in it's starter templates).
FOR BLUEPRINT USERS
This drove my nuts, until i found this post: problem with ie8 and blueprint
Long story short, in you html code change the
<!--[if IE]>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../css/blueprint/ie.css" type="text/css" media="screen, projection" />
<![endif]-->
for
<!--[if lt IE 8]>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../css/blueprint/ie.css" type="text/css" media="screen, projection" />
<![endif]-->

This works for me on IE6,7,8,FF 3.6.3:
#container
{
width:100%;
}
#centered
{
width:350px;
margin:0 auto;
}
and
<div id="container">
<div id="centered">content</div>
</div>
