Building a div container with a triangle in lower right hand corner using :before and :after to create orange triangle with white border. Working well in FF and Chrome. Not working in IE8. Tried adjusting z-index and other attributes but not able to figure out what is wrong here. Any help is appreciated.
.homepage-banner-main:after {
content: " ";
position: absolute;
z-index: 100;
bottom: 0px;
right:5px;
border-top: 100px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 0px solid transparent;
border-right:100px solid #e66c23;
zoom:1;
}
.homepage-banner-main:before {
content: " ";
position: absolute;
z-index: 100;
bottom: 0px;
right:5px;
border-top: 110px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 0px solid transparent;
border-right:110px solid white;
zoom:1;
}
<div class="homepage-banner-main" id="banner-1" >
<img src="http://fillmurray.com/g/710/400" >
</div>
There might be a number of reasons. Out of the top of my head, can you check that:
Your page is NOT running in Quirks Mode.
Your page is passing HTML validation (go to W3C Validator to do a quick check.)
Make sure following in your header
<!DOCTYPE html>
Make sure you are closing meta as well. <meta ------- />
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
similarly
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1"/>

I need to draw a lot of precisely positioned horizontal arrows that point either left, right, or both. I don't want to use HTML canvas. it will all be done dynamically with JQuery, but the css parameters will be the roughly the same as below, including arrowhead size and arrow thickness.
This code works pretty well...
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title></title>
<style >
.ArrowHead {
position: absolute;
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-top: 4px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 5px solid transparent;
border-right: 12px solid black;
top:46px;left:52px;
}
.Arrow {
border-top:solid 1px black;
position: absolute;
top:50px;left:50px;
width:100px;height:1px
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="Arrow" class="Arrow"></div>
<div id="ArrowHead" class="ArrowHead"></div>
</body>
</html>
...but the tip of the arrowhead is slightly above the body of the arrow, and it just looks aligned properly on the right of the arrowhead because the bottom of the arrowhead is larger than the top (easier to see at 400%). Nice illusion, however, I was hoping to find out if there was some way that the arrowhead could be vertically symmetric and still be lined up exactly horizontally with the arrow body.
You won't be able to center the arrow vertically while the line is 1px in height, as you can't measure in half pixels. If you are willing to increase the line's width to two pixels, it's easy, though. It's also better to position the arrow heads relative to the line rather than to the viewport (using relative/absolute positioning). E.g.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<style>
.arrow {
background: black;
width:100px;
height:2px;
position: relative;
}
.arrow::before {
content: "";
position: absolute;
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-top: 5px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 5px solid transparent;
border-right: 12px solid black;
top:-4px;
left:-3px;
}
.arrow::after {
content: "";
position: absolute;
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-top: 5px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 5px solid transparent;
border-left: 12px solid black;
top:-4px;
right:-3px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="arrow"></div>
</body>
</html>
I have a table and need to set border-radius 5px. It is working perfect in FF and Chrome but not working on IE9.
.XYZ table {
border: 2px solid #E6E7E8;
border-radius: 0.7em 0.7em 0.7em 0.7em;
display: block;
margin-top: 1em;
overflow: hidden;
display: block;
}
Please help me.

I am hoping someone can help me with a css problem...
I am using a listview to display some results, there is required to be a concept of grouping, to achieve this i am using 2 background colors alternating between groups. I am trying to add a border to these elements, but as the border-top and the border-left may be different colors, is there any way of removing the triangle where they meet?
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
p
{
border-top:10px solid red;
border-left:10px solid white;
border-bottom-style:dotted;
border-left-style:solid;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p>2 different border styles.</p>
</body>
</html>
You can write like this:
p{
width:200px;
height:200px;
background:red;
border-left:5px solid pink;
-moz-box-shadow:inset 0 5px green;
box-shadow:inset 0 5px green;
}
Check this http://jsfiddle.net/nRWux/1/
box-shaow not work in IE8 & below.
Here's a solution compatible with IE8+ using :before pseudo:
Fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/PhilippeVay/hXrW5/
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
p {
position: relative;
border-top:10px solid red;
border-bottom-style:dotted;
border-left-style:none;
}
p:before {
content: '';
display: block;
width: 10px;
position: absolute;
top: -10px; /* top: 0; if you want red over blue (top over left) */
bottom: 0;
background: blue;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p>2 different border styles.</p>
</body>
</html>
You can use box-shadow for the border-top,
In your example: http://jsfiddle.net/C7jnJ/
margin-top:10px;
box-shadow:0 -10px 0 10px red;
Instead of border-top. The margin-top is added because the shadow is displaying outside the 'p', If you would like it inside, then it would be: http://jsfiddle.net/C7jnJ/1/
box-shadow:inset 0px 10px 0px red;
No, it is not possible to remove the triangle where they meet. borders are implemented that way and there is no way around.
I have this code, that shows a little triangle using pure CSS, and it works on all modern browsers, including IE8-IE9:
<html>
<head>
<style>
.arrow:after {
display: inline-block;
width: 0;
height: 0;
margin: 4px 0 0 4px;
vertical-align: top;
text-indent:-9999px;
border-left: 4px solid transparent;
border-right: 4px solid transparent;
border-top: 4px solid black;
content: "↓";
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="arrow">testing</div>
</body>
</html>
The problem is that it is not working on IE7, it just does not display the arrow.
I have seen people suggesting to use ie8.js, but it doesn't work either.
Does anyone know how to make it work on IE7?
Yes, this is possible in IE7 without the use of JS plugins. Don't let the naysayers fool you. Here's your updated code:
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
.arrow:after {
display: inline-block;
width: 0;
height: 0;
margin: 4px 0 0 4px;
vertical-align: top;
text-indent:-9999px;
border-left: 4px solid transparent;
border-right: 4px solid transparent;
border-top: 4px solid black;
content: "↓";
}
.arrow {*zoom: expression( this.runtimeStyle.zoom="1", this.appendChild( document.createElement("i")).className="ie-after" );}
.arrow .ie-after {*zoom: expression(this.runtimeStyle['zoom'] = '1', this.innerHTML = '↓');}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<span class="arrow">testing</span>
</body>
</html>
style .arrow in conditional comments specifically for ie7. ie7 doesn't understand :after,:before,:content or display:inline-block for that matter. without looking at the site, it's hard to offer a solid fix. offhand, i'd make it display:block; with a text-indent and use background-image.
Have you tried using CSS3Pie
http://css3pie.com/
http://code.google.com/p/ie7-js/ project claims support for :after, :before and content. You would use the IE8.js part of it.
Test page: http://ie7-js.googlecode.com/svn/test/index.html
I am trying to create a rather simple effect on a set of images. When an image doesn't have the mouse over it, I'd like it to have a simple, gray border. When it does have an image over it, I'd like it to have a different, "selected", border.
The following CSS works great in Firefox:
.myImage a img
{
border: 1px solid grey;
padding: 3px;
}
.myImage a:hover img
{
border: 3px solid blue;
padding: 1px;
}
However, in IE, borders do not appear when the mouse isn't hovered over the image. My Google-fu tells me there is a bug in IE that is causing this problem. Unfortunately, I can't seem to locate a way to fix that bug.
Try using a different colour. I'm not sure IE understands 'grey' (instead, use 'gray').
The following works in IE7, IE6, and FF3. The key was to use a:link:hover. IE6 turned the A element into a block element which is why I added the float stuff to shrink-wrap the contents.
Note that it's in Standards mode. Dont' know what would happen in quirks mode.

float: left;
clear: both;
border: 0;
margin: 3px;
padding: 1px;
}
.myImage a:link:hover
{

clear: both;
border: 3px solid blue;
padding: 1px;
margin: 0;
display:block;

In my experience IE doesn't work well with pseudo-classes. I think the most universal way to handle this is to use Javascript to apply the CSS class to the element.
CSS:
.standard_border
{
border: 1px solid grey;
padding: 3px;
}
.hover_border
{
border: 3px solid blue;
padding: 1px;
}
Inline Javascript:
<img src="image.jpg" alt="" class="standard_border" onmouseover="this.className='hover_border'" onmouseout="this.className='standard_border'" />
Try using the background instead of the border.
It is not the same but it works in IE (take a look at the menu on my site: www.monex-finance.net).
<!--[if lt IE 7]>
<script src="http://ie7-js.googlecode.com/svn/version/2.0(beta3)/IE7.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<![endif]-->
put that in your header, should fix some of the ie bugs.
IE has problems with the :hover pseudo-class on anything other than anchor elements so you need to change the element the hover is affecting to the anchor itself. So, if you added a class like "image" to your anchor and altered your markup to something like this:
<div class="myImage"><img .../></div>
You could then alter your CSS to look like this:
.myImage a.image
{
border: 1px solid grey;
padding: 3px;
}
.myImage a.image:hover
{
border: 3px solid blue;
padding: 1px;
}
Which should mimic the desired effect by placing the border on the anchor instead of the image. Just as a note, you may need something like the following in your CSS to eliminate the image's default border:
.myImage a img {
border: none;
}
