My code is suppose to make a two-column layout, the header at the top, footer at the bottom, navigation at the left column in between the top and bottom, and finally the main at the right column. The problem is that the main is overlapping with the navigation column.
Here is the CSS for my file:
body { background-color: #000033;
background-image: url(primehorizontal.png);
color: #003300;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
margin-left:180px;
padding: 0px 20px 180px 0px;}
header { background-repeat: no-repeat;
height: 100px; }
h1 { white-space: nowrap;
overflow: hidden;}
h2 { color: #003366; }
h3 { padding-top: 10px;
color: #006600; }
nav { float: left;
width: 150px;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 1.2em; }
nav a { text-decoration: none;
text-align: center;
color: #FFFFCC;
font-weight: bold;
border: 3px outset #CCCCCC;
padding: 5px; }
nav a:link { background-color: #003366; }
nav a:visited{ background-color: #48751A; }
nav a:hover { border: 3px inset #333333; }
nav ul { list-style-type:none;
margin: 0;
padding-left: 0; }
dd { font-style: italic;
font-size: .90em;
height: 200%; }
.contact { font-weight: bold;
font-size: .90em;
font-family: "Times New Roman", sans-serif; }
.floatleft { float: left;
padding: 0 20px 20px 0; }
.clear { clear:left; }
footer { font-size: .60em;
clear:both;
margin-left: 180px;}
img { border-style:none; }
#wrapper { background-color:#FFFFCC;
min-width: 700px;
max-width: 960px;
padding: 0px 0px 20px 30px;
border: 1px ridge blue;
width: 80%;
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
box-shadow: inset -3px -3px 3px 3px #00332B;}
header, nav, main, footer {display:block;}

add this:
main{
float:left;
width:calc(100% - 150px);
}
I have added the new width (you might want to add a fallback) so the main always fit with your fixed sized nav (plus the padding on the wrapper)
Got the issue worked out. Just played around with your code a bit, thought you may find it useful.
Though calc() is tempting, it's not necessarily the best choice due to compat issues.

I see you have a class "floatleft", but you never assign it to anything.
Try giving your elements locations. For instance if you wanted something to float left tell it how from from the left it should go. In your CSS you may trying something like this in .floatleft{ float: left; left: 10px}. .floatright{ float: right; right: 10px;}.

This is sort of the same issue I asked here: Cannot get two CSS elements to be next to each other
However, this time, it's messing up when I added an iframe. I tried applying different styles, even to the iframe, but it doesn't appear to be working. I also messed with the CSS of the ul and li that I added to the side nav bar (didn't help, though changing the ul property to display: table-row; did fix another issue I had with something else.)
My main plan was to have an iframe to another group of pages. (My restaurant pages might have more than one tab for each restaurant, but I had been wondering how to have a "back" thing to my ski resort (where the restaurants are) so the user could go back to them. I then thought, why not just have an iframe instead?
However, once I added the iframe, the trouble I had before (see previous stack overflow link above) suddenly came back.

This time, having display: table-cell; for both nav#vert and #text-content doesn't appear to be enough like it was before.
float: left on the nav#vert seems to have fixed that issue, though it broke some other things (though I should be able to fix those.)
I have a css element #main that for some reason is set to 0px x 0px (it was working earlier, I'm not sure what changed.) when #main ul is at 800px x 39px, so therefore the entire element is hidden
Is there a way to have the dimensions of #main automatically change without having to hard-code it in?
I've tried:
overflow: hidden, auto
float: left, center, right
width: 100%
display: block, inline-block, inline
but none of them work.

EDIT 1:
I just realized that the #main element is actually visible on a Windows Chrome, but not on Mac Chrome or Safari (which I've been using) while still having the 0px x 0px dimensions.
You can use flex. It's a nice and easy way to set width, margins, paddings for things.
Here's a wonderful "Complete guide to flexbox":
http://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox/
You could do something like this:
nav {
display: flex;
flex: 1;
/* you can set some width if you want
width: 400px;
*/
background-color: #eee;
}
nav ul {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
display: flex;
flex: 1;
list-style-type: none;
background-color: #ddd;
border: 1px solid #00f;
}
nav ul li {
display: flex;
flex: 1;
padding: 5px 10px;
margin-right: 10px;
background-color: #bbb;
border: 1px solid #f00;
}
nav ul li:last-child {
margin-right: 0;
}
<nav>
<ul>
<li>aaaa</li>
<li>bbbb</li>
<li>cccc</li>
<li>dddd</li>
<li>eeee</li>
</ul>
</nav>
You can change width of nav to whatever you like, or not set it at all and give the nav flex: 1 for "100%".
I have a .page <div> that surrounds all of the content inside. When the content stretches, so does the .page <div>.
My main issue is that the .leftBannerBackground <div> does not extend with the .page <div>.
Is there anything I can do to make the height of the .leftBannerBackground <div> extend with the .page <div>?
Short version of HTML:
<div class="page">
<div class="header">
<div class="top_banner">
</div>
<div class="title">
<h1 class="siteColor centeredText">
Header </h1>
</div>
</div>
<div class="leftBanner">
</div>
<div class="leftBannerBackground">

<div class="main">

You have two options:
Use absolute positioning on .leftBannerBackground and set top: 0px; and bottom: 0px;. Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/ZXLNk/
Use height: 100%; on .leftBannerBackground (as you are already). But in order to get that to work you need to set the height of all containing elements to 100% as well: .page, <body>, and <html>. Of course that also means you won't be able to use absolute positioning on .page. Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/gLzcK/
I am trying to learn how to use templates in Web pages. Thanks to something I found on stackoverflow, I have the basics going. Now I want some control over the formatting. I found an example which looks nice so I thought I would use it to learn something. I'll show 2 images so the problem will be clear:
I don't really care about the form itself. It just serves as an example to learn something. There are a couple of things I would like to control over:
1) Notice in the original that the Company Name is placed nicely with respect to the jpeg image. In my case it is stuck to the left.
2) In the original if I expand the Firefox window the form stays centered and there is white space on both sides. In my case the Primefaces controls take the whole window and they are too high, cutting off part of the jpeg image.
I saw the original uses style.css so I tried to copy and paste different items, but nothing gave me the control I'm looking for. I'll show the only thing in style.css which makes any difference:
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
background: #fff url(images/header.jpg) no-repeat center top;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
color: #7c7c7c;
}
This is the beginning of the original form
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta name="keywords" content="" />
<meta name="description" content="" />
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Xhtml18</title>
<link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" />
</head>
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="header-wrapper">
<div id="header">
<div id="logo">
<h1>Company <span>Name</span></h1>
<p>Nice Slogan Goes Here</p>
</div>
<div id="menu">
<ul>
<li class="current_page_item">Homepage</li>
<li>ABOUT US</li>
<li>SERVICES</li>
<li>SUPPORT</li>
<li>CONTACT</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
I tried putting in all the inner definitions, but they made no difference. I have my version much simpler
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html">
<h:head>
<title>Master template</title>
<link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" />
</h:head>
<h:body>
<div id="logo">
<h1>Company <span>Name</span></h1>
<p>Nice Slogan Goes Here</p>
</div>
<ui:insert name="AreaOne">Default text</ui:insert>
</h:body>
</html>
Finally in my xhtml file the crucial step which allows me to do the templating
<h:body>
<ui:composition template="master.xhtml">
<ui:define name="AreaOne">
So that the major point of templating seems to be working, just I need some more control over it. Sorry for the long message but I think I need it all to explain the problem.
EDIT:
I don't know how to add a file per se, so I'll spell it out as code

Your brackground has the center attribute, that's why you've got your logo on the center and the text is not on it.
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
background: #fff url(images/header.jpg) no-repeat center top;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
color: #7c7c7c;
}
You can remove the center attribute or you can move the text by doing something like that (just an example!)
<div align="center"><h1>Company <span>Name</span></h1></div>
Then, to stop your primefaces' components to autoresize, you've got to override the default css.
I guess that you're using a PanelGrid, so you can try with
<p:panelGrid columns="2" style="width: 200px !important">....</p:panelGrid>
I'm not sure that !important is required, but basically you've got to give a fixed width to the component to stop it from auto-resizing
EDIT:
If you want to apply your style to every p:panelGrid component, you should consider overriding the whole css class.
Just take a look here to know the css class names of each primefaces component :

I am not very good at this I know some but I am having some issues with my CSS I can not figure out.
My mainContent ID overlaps with under my Sidebar ID. I am sure I messed up my css trying to fix this but I have no idea how to fix t his. I have changed things so many times I have become lost.
Any help would be nice.

padding: 10px;

y background-color: #8B0000;
; background-color: #A00;
border: #A00;
}
Make sure you specify a width on BOTH the .fltrt and .fltlft columns
Your css should look like this:
/** Assuming the parent element (container) is 940px wide **/
.fltlft {
float: left;
width: 540px;
}
.fltrt {
float: right;
width: 380px;
}
Also, make sure you replace/remove **y** with .y and remove that unused **font** attribute.
Not sure what's happening as there isn't a visual on whats actually happening.
.twoColHybLtHdr #sidebar1 h3, {
Just remove the , and all should be good
The bottom there is a few errors.
.twoColHybLtHdr #table {
**font:**
margin: 0;
padding: 10px;
color: #FFF;
**y** background-color: #8B0000;
; background-color: #A00;
border: #A00;
}
I'm guessing it should be more like
.twoColHybLtHdr #table {
font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;
margin: 0;
padding: 10px;
color: #FFF;
.y{
background-color: #8B0000;
background-color: #A00;
border: #A00;
}
Take the float right off of the container
put a float left on the main content
add a div after the main content that clears both.
.twoColHybLtHdr #container {
width: 80%;
background: #CFF;
margin: 0 auto;
border: 2px solid #A00;
text-align: left;
border-color: #A00;
******** removed Float:right;
}
.twoColHybLtHdr #sidebar1 {
float: left;
width: 210px; ****** Change this to pixels unless you are specifying the font-size as !important otherwise you could have problems with this width scaling unintentionally.
background: #006633;
padding: 5px 0;
background-color: #D4DFAA;
border: #A00;
}
.twoColHybLtHdr #mainContent {
margin: 5px 20px ;
padding-left: 15px;
color: #000;
float: left; ****** Added float left to mesh it with your sidebar float right would work as well but wouldn't mesh it with your floated sidebar.
}
*********** add another div after your mainContent and assign it the ID="clear"
.twoColHybLtHdr #clear {
clear: left;
}
There are some other errors in your css but I think these are the ones where you are having your problems.
