My food menu works perfectly in Firefox and IE, but not at all on Chrome. The dt tag overlaps with other dd tags. I have tried to search from the question list, but cannot get the right one. I many times tried to play around with float and overflow, but have been unable to address this problem.
Your suggestions would be appreciated. I really want to stop scratching my head, since I have been doing this for several months.
#menucontent dt {
float: left;
padding-right: 5px;
font-weight: bold;
}
#menucontent dd.price {
float: right;
color: #E1DEDE;
}
#menucontent dd.ingredients {
float: left;
width: 100%;
padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;
color: #FAD98A;
}
My food menu can be clicked from this link
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/13748701/dinner.html
Its CSS source is here https://dl.dropbox.com/u/13748701/style.css
First of all: get rid of all the empty <p>-tags! They are not necessary. Want to created spaces between elements? Use margin!
For your problem: add a clear: both; to h2. So you get this:
h2 {
padding: 3px 15px 0px 0px;
font-weight: normal;
font-size: 20px;
color: #F7E4B5;
clear: both;
}
Try add overflow: hidden; to your dl element in css :
#menucontent dl {
overflow: hidden;
}

In order to solve an issue at work, I've been learning how to do paragraph numbering with css. So far, I am pleased with the results for standalone text passages. However, my requirement is to do the same in a scroll box with a vertical scrollbar.
As you can see here: http://jsfiddle.net/Lceewqj3/3/, I have gotten close by removing absolute positioning from the paragraph numbers, and adding a right margin, but I am still having a problem getting the paragraph starting left edge to be positioned correctly. My solution must work correctly for double-digit paragraph numbers as well as single, so the fixed right margin doesn't work, as you can see by scrolling down to paragraph 10. I tried adding a width property, but that didn't work either.
Note that modifying the existing passage-scrolling style is something I am not at liberty to do, so I need a solution that involves only manipulating the chapter and/or page styles.
Here is the css for the fiddle:
.chapter {
counter-reset: paragraph;
padding-left: 30px;
}
.page p {
width: 75%;
}
.page p:before {
//position: absolute;
margin-left: -30px;
margin-right: 14px;
color: #000;
font-style: italic;
content: counter(paragraph);
counter-increment: paragraph;
}
p {
margin-top: 10px;
font-family: 'Raleway', sans-serif;
font-size: 17px;
line-height: 22px;
font-weight: 400;
}
.passage-scrolling {
padding: 0 5%;
height: 340px;
width: 89%;
border: 2px solid #999;
overflow-y: auto;
margin-bottom: 20px;
-webkit-border-radius: 3px;
-moz-border-radius: 3px;
border-radius: 3px;
}
Someone at work figured this out for me. The answer was simply to add float:left; and text-align:left; and remove the right margin from the .page p:before style. See the result here: http://jsfiddle.net/Lceewqj3/5/
Here's the final css that worked correctly:
.chapter {
counter-reset: paragraph;
padding-left: 30px;
}
.page p {
width: 75%;
}
.page p:before {
float: left;
text-align: left;
margin-left: -30px;
font-style: italic;
content: counter(paragraph);
counter-increment: paragraph;
}
I've made two divs for navigation with given css:
for first button:
.OptionsButton .DropDownButtonOverlay
{
margin: 0px -95px 0px 0px;
width: 92px;
height: 38.5px;
float: right;
z-index: 2;
}
.tenPxLeft
{
margin-left: 10px;
}
.floatRight
{
float: right;
}
.regularButton
{
background-color: #008BE1;
border: none;
}
.optionsButton
{
border-radius: 3px;
-webkit-appearance: none;
}
and the second button is as this:
.defaultButton
{
font-family: 'Open Sans', Segoe UI, Verdana, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;
border-radius: 3px;
font-size: 14px;
color: #FFFFFF;
padding: 10px 15px;
-webkit-appearance: none;
margin: 0; /* fixes chrome bug */
}
.tenPxLeft
{
margin-left: 10px;
}
.floatRight
{
float: right;
}
.regularButton
{
background-color: #008BE1;
border: none;
}
the problem I am dealing with is they look fine on Chrome and IE (alligned nicely). However when I go to firefox they don't get alligned as well as intended (i am putting them in another div as a top menu thingy).
It seems like the font is influencing that. I've tried making font by percentage (100.01%), however it makes it look nice in firefox, but then ruins the view in IE and Chrome.
how could I fix this?
I found out that firefox tends to work differently on divs (I knew this before, but the solution was unclear), therefore I added Max-Height attribute on the button that expands due to text-size in it's body which fixed the problem.
I cannot figure this out. I HAVE DONE RESEARCH so please, no comments about me doing more research. Also, I am a noob, so be nice ;)
Here's my site: http://library.skybundle.com/
Hover your mouse over the two black rectangles in the main blue nav bar (header area). The a:hover should make the color change to a gray. The ISSUE is that in Chrome, this looks perfect. But, in Firefox, the padding-right isn't long enough or something, so there is always a small black rectangle at the far right side of the "Educational Courses" button (this will only be visible when hovering your cursor over the button). In other words, the gray box doesn't go all the way to the right-side end of the button area upon mouse hover. I just don't understand why this looks and works great in Chrome, but bugs out in Firefox...
Believe me when I say I have tried everything I can to fix it using Firebug in Firefox. If you play around with it using an editor in your browser, you will see that if you try to make the padding longer for Firefox, it pops the whole button down onto a new line. So to fix THAT problem, you must make the container wider, but then the original problem comes back. It's a circle of problems and I'm sure one of you geniuses out there will see a simple solution that I am missing.
Please help. Thanks!
EDIT :
Here's my JSFiddle and code. Notice how it looks great in Chrome but not in Firefox?

}
ul#top-menu li {

list-style-type: none;
height: 49px;
background-color: #2C2C2C;
float: left;
}
li#li-right {
list-style-position: inside;
border-left: 2px solid #5E5E5E;
}
ul#top-menu li a {
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 11pt;
text-decoration: none;
padding: 15px 10px 16px 10px;
color: #ffffff;
}
ul#top-menu li a:hover {
text-decoration: none;
width: auto;
color: #ffffff;
background-color: #505354;
padding: 15px 10px 17px 10px;
}
its because a tags (anchor tags) have a default display property of inline
due to CSS Box Model you would need to adjust your padding and set the anchor tags display property to display:block;
the display block allows the anchor tag to fill the whole space of the LI tag
change ul#top-menu li a to this:
ul#top-menu li a{
color: #FFFFFF;
font-size: 11pt;
font-weight: bold;
display: block; /* add this */
padding: 0 10px; /* add this */
}
the CSS Box Model adds the content + padding + border + margin
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/box_model
Take a look at this CSS rule:
li#li-right {
border-left: 2px solid #5E5E5E;
list-style-position: inside;
}
Dropping list-style-position: inside seems to fix your issue in Firefox (and still works in Chrome), but I haven't tested the implications in other browsers. The CSS rule is documented here.
The reason why : browsers apply their own css if you don't specify it. Firefox added the space for your bullet (somehow)
FF :
list-style-image none
list-style-position outside
list-style-type disc
GooChrome :
list-style-image: none;
list-style-position: inside;
list-style-type: none;

Working on revamping a client's site, and one of their requests is to change the nav to accommodate text of any size. Here's the trick: I can't change html, just css and javascript. Oh, and the version of jquery on the site is 1.4.4 - this can't change either.
I've got a javascript-based solution in place, and it's working across all modern browsers - but I can't seem to get it to function in IE7. The solution relies on all nav elements rendering in their native width (i.e. wrapping instead of resizing), in order to calculate the necessary width changes. In IE7, the nav items don't clear - the last one shrinks to a tiny size to fit into the first row, and the javascript thus can't tell that resizing needs to be calculated.
The javascript should work fine, the main issue is that I need to know what my css isn't doing to force the last element to wrap instead of resize in IE7. I've tried an exhaustive number of combinations of display: inline-block;, white-space: nowrap;, and float: left; to no avail.
I isolated the nav in question and put it in a fiddle right here. If anyone has any ideas, or knows a better way I can implement, let me know - all suggestions welcome!
I have two versions of your jsFiddle here to compare with and verify that this is what you're going for. I cleaned up your CSS a bit but the main thing I did was set a percentage width on the li in your navigation. You have 6 elements so 100/6 = 16.6666%. I should also not I removed the jQuery in the jsFiddles below.

When viewing my site in IE, the site description looks as if the bottom of the letters are cut off. Of course, everything is fine and looks nice in Safari/Firefox/Chrome, but IE is killing me. It has been made on the WordPress Twenty Ten theme.
I adjusted the margins and padding with no luck. It seems that reducing the font size helps, but it can't be much smaller or it will be unreadable.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

Here is the page rendered in Safari and IE side by side: http://screencast.com/t/b4YnDKANsg91
Here is the header code:
/* =Header
-------------------------------------------------------------- */
#header {
padding: 15px 0 0 0;
}
#site-title {
float: left;
font-size: 30px;
line-height: 36px;
margin: 0 0 4px 0;
width: 300px;
}
#site-title a {
color: #000;
font-weight: bold;
text-decoration: none;
}
#site-description {
clear: right;
float: right;
color: #006400;
font-size: 23px;
font-style: regular;
margin: 45px 0 10px 0;
width: 610px;
}
/* This is the custom header image */
#branding img {
border:none;
clear: both;
display: block;
}
/* This is the search form in the header */
#searchform {
float: right;
margin-top: -30px;
z-index: 500;
}
I can't be certain without seeing the full CSS, but I suspect a overflow:visible would solve this. Another selector may be setting it to clipped or hidden... If that doesn't work, try setting the height to em units instead of pixels (2em, for example).
