I'm currently working on a website design and need to make some changes to an advertisement. The CSS I apply to the main div (.ad_728x90_home) I'm targeting doesn't work. I have applied a margin-top to the div but that doesn't work, tried other CSS but it's not getting picked up.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! The advert is located below the second post.
.ad_728x90_home {
height: 130px;
}
.ad_728x90_home_text {
margin-top: 40px;
}
span.ad_728x90_home_h3text {
color: #FFFFFF;
float: left;
font-family: LeagueGothicRegular;
font-size: 23px;
line-height: 34px;
margin: 13px 0 22px 10px;
text-transform: uppercase;
width: 185px;
}
.ad_728x90_image {
float: right;
margin-right: 10px;
}
<div class="ad_728x90_home">
<div class="ad_728x90_home_text">
<span class="ad_728x90_home_h3text">Need more quality fonts? Head over to myfonts.com</span>
</div>
<div class="ad_728x90_image">
<img class="scale-with-grid" src="images/ad_728x90.jpg" alt="Blog Post" />
</div>
</div>
Be sure you have the right class names between .ad_728x90_home and .ad_728x90_home_text and double check your HTML nesting.
I checked your items with Chrome's inspect element and the <div class="ad_728x90_home_text"> seems to start above your ad, at the top of the page.
Try going to make it a position:relative as it seems like a main div element
.ad_728x90_home {
Postion:relative;
top:10px;}
I cannot say the exact pixel amount of it as the margin-top doesnt work try using it as relative.

I'm trying to get a div to be centered on the page. however WordPress isn't cooperating and doing it like it does in my testing HTML document. Any ideas?
HTML
<div class="propreq grid_4"><h2>Request a Proposal</h2></div>
CSS
.propreq {
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: center;
padding-top: 20px;
padding-bottom: 10px;
background-color: #0e7bd0;
}
Looks like it's because of a couple things. Try adding the styles below to your current definition (or changing them, if they're already there):
.propreq {
display: block;
float: none;
}
Before, .propreq had display:inline, float:left applied to it, making the styles you were applying to it ineffective. I hope this gives you what you were looking for! If not, let me know and I'll be happy to help further. Good luck!
There could be Several reasons.
1st: Try examining the CSS using Developer's Tools (in Chrome/FireFox).
There could be another CSS rule which is OVER-RIDING your this one.
2nd: Try using
<div align="center" class="propreq grid_4"><h2>Request a Proposal</h2></div>
My best guess is, Another CSS-Rule is overtaking the Center Property.
.propreq {
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: center;
padding-top: 20px;
padding-bottom: 10px;
background-color: #0e7bd0;
}
TIP: Do a quick search on "Examining using FireFox Developer Tools" | Check out for the text-align: center; in .propreq section.
I'm designing a web page and I used HTML5 to make an entire div tag a link. Prior to adding the link, the whole div would expand when I hovered over it. Suddenly, it's only working if I hover over the words, not the box I created. The HTML looks like this (minus the actual link):
<a href="link goes here" style="text-decoration: none;">
<div class="home-tab">
home
</div>
</a>
And the CSS to make it hover looks sort of like this:
.home-tab:hover {
width: 150px;
height: 45px;
margin-top: 30px;
border-top-left-radius: 15px;
border-top-right-radius: 15px;
font-family: arial;
color: #FFFFFF;
text-align: center;
font-size: 13pt;
padding-top: 25px;
}
(Note: This is not all of the code in the stylesheet. I have some lovely color in there too.)
Is there something I'm missing in my CSS to make the whole thing work on the hover and not just the words? I'm not even sure what questions to ask to figure out what I've done here.
ETA: I have checked this across three different browsers. It has the same problem on IE, Firefox and Chrome.
ETA: CSS without the :hover attribute.
.home-tab{
width: 150px;
height: 35px;
margin-top: 40px;
border-top-left-radius: 15px;
border-top-right-radius: 15px;
font-family: arial;
color: #FFFFFF;
text-align: center;
font-size: 13pt;
padding-top: 25px;
}
ETA: Okay, here's something very weird. It seems that any elements on the far right don't have this problem. Seriously, the forums tab and next button on the far right both have :hover elements and they work exactly as I want them to.
Get rid of the <div> entirely and set <a> to display: block.
You're not supposed to put block-level elements inside of an <a> anyway.
Seems to be working fine here: jsFiddle
The only thing I can think of is that the div is not the size you think it is. the size and width elements that you are setting in your css are only active when your mouse is on the div. You need to set them in the normal non hover settings as well if you want the div to be that size. Right now it is defaulting to just large enough to hold the text. You can see this demonstrated by the black border I added in my example.
Here is my suggestion:
.home-tab {
/*All of the sizing code goes here to create box for div*/
}
.home-tab:hover {
/*anything you want changed on hover goes here*/
}
I hope I was understanding your question correctly. If you need more clarification please let me know. Good luck!
I think you want to expand that div when you hover cursor on that div.
i wrote a code below that will solve your hover problem.
Here is a code for you customize this
.home-tab{
width:150px;
height:45px;
margin-top:30px;
color:#008080;
font-family: arial;
background-color: blue;
transition-duration: .8s;
color:white;
text-align: center;
font-size: 13pt;
padding-top: 25px;
}
.home-tab:hover{
width:200px;
height:60px;
font-size: 16pt;
transition-duration: .8s;
}
a{ text-decoration:none} /* optional*/
</style>
<a href="#"><div class="home-tab">
home
</div>
</a>
I've made a wrapper div with a text div and a image div floating to the right. A simple task, yes, but not for me tonight it seems. I am unable to make it work and stuck.
Here's how it looks right now: http://bit.ly/RNinCm
CSS:
introwrapper {
width: 938px;
background-color: white;
margin-bottom: -20px;
padding-left: 5px;
}
.introtekst {
font-size: 30px;
text-transform: uppercase;
font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;
color: #a81c11;
}
.gammeltbilde {
float: left;
}
HTML:
<div id="introwrapper">
<div class="introtekst">
<p>Some text here.</p>
</div>
<div class="gammeltbilde">
<img src="bilder/kjiptbilde.jpg" alt="bilde fra parken"/>
</div>
</div>
Change your CSS like so:
.introtekst {
font-size: 30px;
text-transform: uppercase;
font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;
color: #a81c11;
display:inline;
width: 80%; /* or dependent on what you like */
float: left;
}
.gammeltbilde {
float: right;
display:inline;
width: 20%; /* relative to width for introtekst */
}
The picture is larger than the container, try setting dimensions on the image:
<img src="bilder/kjiptbilde.jpg" alt="bilde fra parken" width="800" />
(800 makes it fit, but you may want to change that as needed.)
You could place a width="800px" tag on the img, but I would recommend actually staying away from that whenever possible and actually sizing down the images in Photoshop or some similar program. If you have a page with lots of images that you've sized down using the width tag, your page load times can get pretty big.
You could just remove <img src="bilder/kjiptbilde.jpg" alt="bilde fra parken">
Sorry gals & guys for a potentially dumb question but I have been looking for various ways to solve this issue and it still does not work like I want it to.
This is one of these issues where an input field stays very short (like ~150px) even though the box it is is much wider (like ~1300 px on a wide monitor).
I originally had the html & CSS shown in:
http://jsfiddle.net/jjoensuu/qSz5x/5/
In an attempt to solve this issue I found the solutions in:
How to make text input box to occupy all the remaining width within parent block?
I created what I think is similar to "wdm"'s answer in above thread, but I am missing something because the result is still a narrow input field. My creation is here:
http://jsfiddle.net/jjoensuu/rJ45P/8/
I also tried the solution from "Marty Wallace" in same thread but could not get it to work.
So as a reference to my code on the jsfiddle site, the "topsearch" box gets the width of ~1300 pixels but the "field-topsearch" input field stays at around 156px.
With some of my attempted solutions the "Go" button wraps to the next line below. Any help on how to solve this would be appreciated.
I took a slightly different approach. It appears to me you wanted the input text field to expand but the label and input button to remain the same size either side of the input field. This may well be useful for generating a form containing multiple rows without resorting to table layouts. Also the previous suggestion does not really work very well regarding keeping the elements on one line. This technique would allow the containing 'box' to be resized to whatever you liked at will.
I did have to tweak your html a little, but I feel the label should be next to the element it is related to anyway. I have also left out the form html for clarity since that is not part of the layout:
<div class="input">
<label for="field-topsearch">Search</label>
<div class="value">
<div>
<input id="field-topsearch" maxlength="256" type="text" name="search_str" value=""/>
</div>
<input type="submit" class="button-start-search submit " value="Go!"/>
</div>
</div>
And the css:
.value {
position: relative;
}
.value>div {
margin-left: 60px;
margin-right: 40px;
}
label {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
}
input.submit {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
right: 0px;
}
input[type="text"] {
width: 100%;
}

Here is the working fiddel: http://jsfiddle.net/surendraVsingh/rJ45P/18/

I'm trying to design a website for my mums backpackers business. The problem that I am having is between my banner image and my navbar there is a blank white line that you can see in the image. I thought this is to do with the margin so I have set it to zero for both of the elements to no avail.
Also a second question - Why does my black border not cover the main content as well? I thought since its a body background it would go around every element in the body.
I realise there may have been similar questions but I can't find the answer anywhere. I will appreciate anyones input - this is my first post here so I'm sorry if I screwed up any formatting.
The image of my website can be found here:

The problem that I am having is between my banner image and my navbar there is a blank white line that you can see in the image. I thought this is to do with the margin so I have set it to zero for both of the elements to no avail.
In HTML images are by default inline level elements so they follow text rules (and will have blank space below to keep the correct alignment with letters like "p" and such). You can either assign display: block to the header image, or define the header container to have the same exact height as the image
Also a second question - Why does my black border not cover the main content as well? I thought since its a body background it would go around every element in the body.
Because floated elements pop out of their container, you have to clear the float to extend the container with something like
<div style="clear: both"></div>
or use some reset/clearfix css such as the one provided by html5boilerplate.
add to your css
#banner { display: block; }
If you remove the float property of #mainc then the border will surround all the content. By using float, you are taking the div out of the main page flow.
