I found a line of code in CSS:
html.oldie .hero-gallery {
height: 860px
}
What does html.oldie mean? I am guessing that this is for viewing of the HTML in different browsers, but I don't know exactly what this means.
.oldie is just a class. It's taking an element of class .hero-gallery inside an html tag of class .oldie and setting it's height property to 860px. The HTML might look something like this:
<html class="oldie">
<!-- some HTML here -->
<div class="hero-gallery">
<!-- HTML for the gallery -->
</div>
</html>
It's odd to see a class on the html element, but it's not any different from a class on any other element as far as CSS is concerned.
The .oldie class is a bit of CSS written by Jonathan Neal. It "tranforms (sic) CSS to be compatible with old Internet Explorer." It is documented here. It is meant to ensure that HTML5/CSS3 works in IE8.

I have a web code generated by an aplication (built in angular). It is a menu choice where I need to hide some of them. It looks e.g. like this:
<div class=first>
<div class=second>
<a href=href1>
</div>
<div class=second>
<a href=href2>
</div>
<div class=second>
<a href=href3>
</div>
</div>
Now what I need is to hide the div which contains a element with href2.
I can hide the a element:
.first .second a[href="href2"] {display:none}
But I need to hide the whole div element. I thought:
.first .second < a[href="href2"] {display:none}
that doesn't work.
I KNOW THE JQUERY SOLUTION with has function. The problem is I can only adapt css files of the application. If i'm right I cannot use jquery in css file.
Please...any Idea how to do this ?
thanks a lot for help
best regards

At the moment there is (sadly) no way to adress the parent element with CSS.
I don't know your layout or CSS Code but maybe you can just structure your HTML-Code in a different way.
Edit
And now I understand your question...
To hide (for example) the 3th .second div you don't need to adress it from the child element but from the parent element.
What you are probably looking for are the nth selectors,
for instance: nth-child() or nth-of-type().
You can find more info here.
Also, you should probably take a look at the basics of HTML and CSS.
In your code you have not closed the <a> tags or wrapped the values of the attributes in quotation marks.
Wrong:
<div class=first></div>
Right:
<div class="first"></div>
To hide (for instance) the first element you could use the :first-child selector or the :nth-child() selector. Since you will probably use the nth-child() selector this would be:
.first > .second:nth-child(1) {
display: none;
}
I've used gridsetapp.com in the past to create responsive grids, but on the one I've recently tried creating just isn't working and I can't figure out why.
The link to the css is here; https://get.gridsetapp.com/37722/
Just trying to get something basic:
<html><head>
<link href="https://get.gridsetapp.com/37722/" rel="stylesheet" />
</head>
<body>
<div class="d1-d5" style="background:#aaa">ffggg</div>
</body>
</html>
Any thoughts?
Despite an unusual CSS link, the browser should recognize the CSS file your referenced.
However, looking at your reference, you are just trying to apply CSS to the class d1-d5. However, as best I can tell, there is no exact match in the CSS file to Just d1-d5. Use the Development tools (F12 on most browsers); they are your friend. It will show you what CSS is applied at that moment including, any applied through JavaScript or Linked files.
With CSS, you need to make sure that you call out exactly what the browser can identify, but not more (unless going for a higher order of precedence). For example, the most you could call out to select your d1-d5 is:
html body div.d1-d5{...}
Whereas in you linked CSS file, I see a lot of parents or children when searching d1-d5, such as .d1-d5 .d1,.d1-d5 .d2,.d1-d5 .d3,.d1-d5 .d4,.d1-d5 .d5.
If you wanted the last one in this chain (.d1-d5 .d5), you would need an HTML such as:
<html>
<body>
<div class='d1-d5'>
<div class='d5'>
This text will have the CSS applied.
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
The CSS written as .d1-d5 .d5 literally means "select the element with class d5 as a descendent of an element with class .d1-d5". Your HTML doesn't match any of the classes in the CSS file, including the parent and child selectors. If you were to try the above HTML, you would see width:18.05273834%; applied (which isn't a very obvious thing to see... why not try background:yellow; or something like that for an easy verification).
Finally, why are you inline styling when you have the CSS? This is bad form, and only appropriate if you can't control the CSS file.
I pasted this code into my header.php file to get an opt-in button:
<div class="createsend-button" style="height:27px;display:inline-block;"data-listid="r/72/191/0E3/389738A3FFEDFFA8">
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">....</script>
I can't seem to control the placement - if I add .createsend-button to css there's no effect. When I look at this in Firebug it says this div class is actually .subscribe-button-inner but customizing that class in css has no effect either.
What am I missing here?
My site is at : http://tinyurl.com/c5eujcj
The iframe for the createsend button has inline CSS including position: absolute. If createsend offers an option to change the button, that would be your best option. If not, use this:
<div class="applyStylesToThis">
<div class="createsend-button" style="height:27px;display:inline-block;" data-listid="r/72/191/0E3/389738A3FFEDFFA8"></div>
</div>
I am including styles in normal way like this:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/boostrap.css" type="text/css" />
this styles has a lot of styles which destroy my main view, it applies to body element, is it possible to applay the style only to one particular div?
Put that <div> into a separate page and include bootstrap CSS only in that page.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/boostrap.css" type="text/css" />
</head>
<body>
<div>This is your DIV</div>
</body>
</html>
Your main page won't be touched by that and you'll be able to display that div inside your main page simply using an iframe, change (for example) this:
<div>This is your DIV</div>
To this:
<iframe src="url of the other page"></iframe>
Of course you may need to change little bit the logic of your page to accommodate this (primary I guess because of server side C# code, for client side JavaScript code it should be easier because the come from the same domain).
Yes, you can do that by ID:
<div id="myDiv"></div>
and then the CSS would be:
#myDiv { ... }
and that will apply that style to anything named myDiv. You could also use classes:
<div class="someClass"></div>
and then the CSS would be:
.someClass { ... }
and that will apply that style to anything with that class attached.
Based on what you're describing, surrounding the generality of the CSS that's breaking the already defined CSS, you're going to want to get rid of those general element styles and use ID's because it sounds like you're trying to merge some CSS.
You try to remove all styles of body with javascript code, and after that, after you add a name/id to the body style in your correct css, set this as class attribute of your body. (js code too after the document is completely loaded)
Another (stupid) solution depends on what do you have in the css file. Do you can edit the /css/boostrap.css, simply replace all body word with ".body1" (fe => make a class from it)?
I have a CSS class where I added a background image like this:
.my-class{
background-image: url(images/my-bg.png);
}
this applies fine and works properly in browsers, but when I see it in the iPad, the background image is not visible.
What could be the reason?
Without further information (i.e. how you're applying this class, and to which element), I can't help further. I can tell you however, that this snippet works just fine on desktop, iPhone and iPad:
<!DOCTYPE>
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
.my-class{background-image: url(images/my-bg.png);}
</style>
</head>
<body class="my-class">
<p>Some content</p>
</body>
</html>
I've had the same problem and have managed to get a working solution using jQuery
$(document).ready(function () {
var buttonsFilename = '<%=ResolveUrl("~/Content/Images/Buttons.png") %>';
$('.commands .command').css({
background: 'url(' + buttonsFilename + ')',
width: '55px',
height: '55px',
display: 'inline-block'
});
});
I'm using this within an ASP.NET MVC website, hence the <% %> tag.
I could only get it to work using the background shortcut css property. I couldn't get any of the following to work ...
background-image
backgroundImage
'background-image'
... when using the object notation. Unfortunately that wipes out any other background settings you may have. But I got around that by using another piece of jQuery to set my background-position property.
I had this issue and finally after hours of apple bashing and toiling I made a div tag with an ID around my entire site. The iPad loves it :)
Problem solved.
CSS
<style type="text/css">
#bodybackground {
background:#999 url('http://mywebsite.com/images/background.jpg')
}
</style>
HTML
<div id="bodybackground">
entire site here
</div>
Add this meta tag to your page
<meta name = "viewport" content = "width = device-width, height = device-height"/>
I found that I was having the same problem, (ie: no background image shown on iPad specifically), the problem was the use of quotes, or lack thereof, when apostrophes were needed...
Problem (no apostrophes)
.my-class{background-image: url(images/my-bg.png);}
Fix (apostrophes added)
.my-class{background-image: url('images/my-bg.png');}
If you're saving the .png from photoshop, make sure you save it via 'save for web and devices' and select PNG24.
