I want to create a contact me section on a website i'm making but the problem is my whole website has text-align:center and i am using a definition list for the contact information. is there a way i can still use the wrapper for my page but align the text to the left without it going out of the white border?
CSS:
#charset "utf-8";
html {
text-align: center
}

If i understand you correctly then your problem can be fixed using two things:
in #contact css add "!important" after the "text-align:left;" on the same line
add margin if it overlaps.
If this doesnt answer your question please send me a link so i can see what is happening.
hope i helped.
#contact {
text-align:left;
} Might work. position:relative; Try removing. Because CSS goes from top to bottom and over-writes the properties with new values.. Check this
If you want to keep the "contact block" in the body3 (which is centered), why you added the code - "right: 390px;" to the #contact, I do not see the reason. So if you delete it everything will be okay.
Have you tried this?
dl {
text-align: left;
}
Edit: I added the above to your css and the list was aligned to the left.
remove the text-align:center from css in html tag and add text-align attribute in every div tag so you will get align as you want

I have a simple unordered list beside beside two other divs, all 3 contained within a parent container. Here's how it looks like: https://jsfiddle.net/f0bz4hc0/1/. If you zoom in, you can see that all 3 have borders around them, but the borders around the list items and the anchors extend beyond the container's bottom border while the two other divs are snug. Why does this happen and how can I fix it so that everything is within the container?

If you remove the set height on .header and make it inline-block, you'll see that the borders of on your anchors remain contained in their parent.
.header {
/*height: 40px;*/
background-color:black;
display: inline-block;

I am trying simply to center text horizontally in a form as follows:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css">
<div id="contact-form">
<head-black>STEWARD'S WEEKLY REPORT</head-black><br>
</div>
</html>
contents of style.css:
#contact-form {
background-color:#F2F7F9;
width:925px;
padding:10px;
margin: 10px auto;
border: 6px solid #8FB5C1;
-moz-border-radius:25px;
-webkit-border-radius:25px;
border-radius:15px;
position:relative;
}
#contact-form head-black {
display:inline-block;
font-size:14px;
text-decoration:underline;
text-align:center;
}
The text stays left aligned.
<head-black> is non-standard HTML syntax. Use of custom tags should be avoided. Instead, use:
<h1 class="head-black">STEWARD'S WEEKLY REPORT</h1>
and CSS:
#contact-form {
background-color:#F2F7F9;
width:925px;
padding:10px;
margin: 10px auto;
border: 6px solid #8FB5C1;
-moz-border-radius:25px;
-webkit-border-radius:25px;
border-radius:15px;
position:relative;
text-align:center; /* put this here */
}
#contact-form .head-black {
display:inline-block;
font-size:14px;
text-decoration:underline;
}
jsfiddle
Edit
If you'd like to center only the <h1>, simply set it to display: block, and set the text-align: center in the h1 tag. Don't forget to remove the text-align: center from the #content-form CSS block. Do the following to the .head-black CSS:
#contact-form .head-black {
display:block;
font-size:14px;
text-decoration:underline;
text-align: center;
}
The jsfiddle above shows the new changes.
The following code shows a pop up menu.

The submenu is consisted of a ul entity reesides inside a div.
I would like to change that ul's position within its' ancestor: a div.
I add: "top:100px;" to "li.menu2 ul" selector and see no impact whatsoever. "left" value is no good as well.
Can anyone explain me please why i cannot make that ul repositioned inside its' div?
How can i make it move to other place within the div?
Attached is a screen shot of the present page which i'd like to change.
Thanks a lot !
you can add padding-top: 100px to your CSS
li.menu2 ul {
top:400px;
list-style:none;
margin:0;
font-size:110%;
padding-top:100px;
}
take a look here if that's what you meant (and what I understood)
http://jsfiddle.net/9NqDd/
give this div
position:relative;
if adding
padding-top:100px;
won't work try
margin-top:100px;
instead.
I want to style the buttons on my own Facebook app like the normal Facebook UI,
e.g. tabs should look like that:
The apps is embed to an iframe so I (think I) can't use the CSS classes from FB?!
Sure you can...look into the source code from facebook for the source of their stylesheets. Or use FireBug in Firefox or Opera Dragonfly or any other web development plugin to get the CSS properties.
BUT don't recreate Facebook, I don't think that they would appreciate it!
What you are looking for is this: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/fbml/tab-item/
It's called fb:tabs - Renders a group of standard Facebook navigation tabs. Must contain at least one fb:tab-item.
It's the part of FBML - Facebook Markup Language which they are deprecating and neither fb recommends you to use nor i recommend, its better to do it using css, but you can use it for as long as it works :)
Here you go, CSS for facebook style tabs:

I want to position my footer at the baseline of my #wrapper but all I seem to be able to do is get the footer positioned below the wrapper. Can someone please tell me why this is happening?
Also, if someone sees a problem with how I have this currently designed and has a better way, I'm open to any suggestions.

You should remove the fixed height on #wrapper (height:750px), and clear the floated elements inside #wrapper properly.
The easiest way to do this is to add overflow: hidden to #wrapper.
See: http://jsbin.com/iciwo6
The changed CSS:
#wrapper {
overflow:hidden;
width:1220px;
padding:0;
margin:0 auto;
background:#ccc;
border:3px solid white;
}
You have mentioned the wrapper height 750 that is showing problem.Just make it clear and give height:auto
You have given
header: `height:100px;`
content: height:649px;
so it is taking almost 750px .so there is no space for footer.so it is coming just below the wrapper.So try to give height:auto.
