This is really strange (well, like many IE bugs lol). The page is here. Everything is fine with all modern browsers, but there is an empty space between footer and the bottom of the page on IE6 and IE7. Just can't imagine what is the reason. I am using IE7.js hack, but doesn't help here.
The screenshots: IE6 and IE7.
CSS for footer:
#footer {
background: url("images/footer_bg.png") repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
clear: both;
color: #FFFFFF;
float: left;
font-family: 'Special Elite',arial,serif;
font-size: 13px;
line-height: 85px;
margin-top: 90px;
min-height: 85px;
text-align: center;
width: 100%;
}
Any suggestions are appreciated!
remove the float:left from the footer,
then that makes other browsers "collapse" the top margin of the #footer, so if you also add overflow: hidden to the #wrapper it should make them even..
re:bug : the widths for IE6/7 are triggering hasLayout and instead of avoiding that, the overflow on the wrapper makes everyone the same
at least I hope ;)

My website gets completely messed up in < ie8. Specifically my header just disappears, any ideas?
header{
width: 100%;
height: 140px;
background: #FFFFFF;
margin: 0px;
float: left;
}
h1{
color: #FFFFFF;
font-family: Garamond,Baskerville,"Baskerville Old Face","Hoefler Text","Times New Roman",serif
}
.headerInner{
width: 96%;
height: 88%;
background: #00AA4F;
margin: 10px 2%;
text-align: center;
}
IE8 and older versions don't support HTML5, so it doesn't know about the existence of a header element, therefore it doesn't render it. You can use a div instead of the header element or you can add this script here, which adds HTML5 support for IE8: https://github.com/afarkas/html5shiv. But for IE7 and older I don't think it will help you. I you need to support IE7 and older don't use HTML5 elements.
My private webpage's main content is not displaying strangely within Firefox. The header and footer bar both display and the main text is placed adjacent to them towards the right. Occasionally, the footer also moves above the main text. I'm guessing this is all one issue involving the positioning of DIVs that I'm somehow missing. [This has been solved]
The height of two DIVs that are equally as tall when displayed in Chrome is also different. This issue also occurs in Safari but in a different way. There is a 1 px gap between the logo and the navbar that isn't present when viewed in Chrome or Firefox. Can anyone think of a way to reset all of the browser defaults to prevent similar things from happening in the future?
The website is currently not online yet and I'm debugging it for final release. (I don't really want to release this in the current condition as it will frustrate anyone who doesn't use a webkit browser.)
Also, as a side note, anyone know how to fix the CSS errors I'm getting in Internet Explorer 9? The gradient in the nav bar is gone, some areas have missing background color, and all picture links have annoying boxes around them.
EDIT: I saw in an online CSS gradient generator what I need to do to make the gradients work in IE9. The background issue apparently stems from the same source.
Also, is anyone in Opera experiencing issues with the latest debug version at http://jsbin.com/ipixay/1? (Credit for this one goes to Sunyatasattva.)
The link to the fiddle (where the code is posted at) is: http://jsfiddle.net/aaQSD/7/ Please forgive me for the amount of CSS that's still there, but I can't tell which causes the Internet Explorer 9 problems.
My best guess is that the Firefox problem lies somewhere in this section of CSS:
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: center;
font-family: Times;
background: #efefef url(pics/background.png) repeat top center;

text-align: left;
margin: 10px 0 0 0;

Here is the list of things that have been fixed:
Unwanted boxes/borders around picture
Firefox display issue
Glitchy footer
EDIT: I'm currently working on making a fiddle with the minimal code to replicate the issue as suggested in the comments. I hope you can forgive me for my noobish mistake. Thanks, everyone who have responded so far!
EDIT 2: The fiddle is out! I've removed the pandora's box of code that used to be below.
The header and footer are displayed adjacent to the main container
Is there a reason why they are floated? Removing the float: left rule from the header, makes the container stack below it. If they need to be floated for some reason I am not seeing, perhaps you should consider adding a clear?
Logo height different from navbar element heights
This piece baffled me a bit: I think the culprit is browser default line-height property, which, on Chrome, is coincidentally making your elements align.
Your nav elements have a set line-height of 61, plus a vertical padding of 12 on both sides, adding up to 85px. Your logo has no defined line-height and a font-size of 65px plus a padding-top of 10px. In Firefox this is 10px short.
To fix this, just set the line-height to your logo element as well.
Here is a working JSBin of your code:
Working example
Internet explorer problems:
Missing gradient
Missing background
Annoying border
I don't have IE9 at hand right now, so I might look into it later if you need it, but here are my guesses.
As for the missing gradient, your CSS specifies only webkit and mozilla vendor prefixes. You might want to take a look at the -ms– prefix as well, and check which rules really need it and which don't.
I am skipping the missing background part because it's quite vague and I am not testing on IE right now.
As for the border around linked images, you could perhaps add this rule to your CSS:
a img {
border: 0;
outline: 0;
}
EDIT:
Safari annoying one pixel gap
As for the Safari annoying one pixel gap, it apparently comes from the fact that Safari doesn't calculate well your float: left + width: 26% plus float: right + width: 74%. Adding a .1% to the first element width fixes the problem, but it is not the most elegant solution.
The best solution for your problem at hand is to just float both your elements left. You can see an updated fiddle working in Safari:
Working example
I have edited your fiddle for it to work. I essentially just added float: left; to your #container. You can look at my edits for further details. http://jsfiddle.net/aaQSD/8/
We've got a sticky footer that is working great in anything WebKit based but doesn't seem to work in Firefox (Or new versions of IE either).
There is extra space being generated below the footer of around 200px in height that is inheriting the background colour of body.
The extra space does not seem to be part of any div that we can find, including html, body, content, wrapper etc. etc. It also does not seem to be caused by any sort of padding or margins on any elements.
We've built it on Ryan Fait's CSS Sticky Footer method that uses a push div inside of the wrapper div, with a separate footer div.
You can check it out at redesign.treepuncher.com/freetrial/
Iframe at the bottom of your page and copyright is creating unnecessary space. You can stop iframe from being displayed if that does not affect your website's functionality.
Try this code:
.copy {
color: #FFFFFF;
float: right;
font-weight: 100 !important;
margin: 95px 15px 0 15px; //Fixes margin at the bottom of this div
}
iframe {
display: none; //Stops iframe from being displayed
}
The following css should make it sticky and remove unnecessary space at bottom
.footer {
background-color: #006837;
bottom: 0;
color: #FFFFFF;
font-family: "roboto",sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: 100;
height: 120px;
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
}
.wrapper {
height: auto !important;
margin: 0 auto;
min-height: 100%;
}
I have this site...
http://willruppelglass.com/
it looks good on my machines and all browsers I tested but someone told that the black header doesn't go all the away across the header. What am I doing wrong....before in all browsers there was a big white space to the right...so I changed this..
.headerNav {
color:
black;
margin: 0 auto;
width: 1280px;
padding-top: 140px;
padding-left: 230px;
}
to this
.headerNav {
color:
black;
margin: 0 auto;
width: 1050px; /* decrease the width of the div to compensate for the padding-left */
padding-top: 140px;
padding-left: 230px;
}
but now the header doesn't appear to go all the way across
The browser in question is Safari 5.1.5.
any help would be appreciated, thanks in advanced,
J
here is a screen shot on what I am dealing with...
1 rep says that he is shrinking the browser smaller than 1050px and then scrolling to the right, which is something that is not fixable (the width of <body> cannot be larger than the viewport). The same thing happens with the background for the header and footer of Stack Overflow.
I have a scrollable div on a page that ends up rendering past the bottom of div and sometimes leaves stick characters behind that don't scroll. This happens in IE7 and IE8 in compatibility mode.
Here is the HTML code from the DOM:
<DIV id=ctl00_MainContent_ViewPort class=AgreementViewPort><IMG class=PortSeal src="/images/Seal.png">
<DIV class=DocumentTitle>Document Title</DIV>
<OL>
<LI>Condition #1</LI>
<LI>Condition #2<SUP>1</SUP></LI>
<LI>Condition #3</LI>
<DL>
<DT><SUP>1</SUP> some foot-noted definition.</DT></DL></DIV>
Here's the applied CSS style:
color: #000;
font-family: arial, tahoma, sans-serif
font-size: 12pt;
height: 300px;
margin: 5px;
overflow: scroll;
padding : 5px;
width: 600px;
This renders fine under IE8, Firefox, and Chrome.
Any suggestions?
Just by looking I'd suggest putting the image in its own DIV. This way you can control any overflows.
Also add the following to your CSS:
clip:rect(0px,600px,300px,0px);
We've solved the mystery.
If you want to poke at the issue directly, here's where it can be seen live. Note: After we push the fix, this link won't repro.
On the LI element in the page level CSS, I removed the following style attributes
li
{
margin-bottom: 10px;
position: relative;
left: 10px;
width: 500px;
}
And replaced them with:
li
{
margin: 0px 0px 10px 25px;
}
On the OL element in the page level CSS, the width attribute was moved.
ol
{
padding-left: 10px;
width: 500px;
}
And I feel like something of an idiot. The moral of the story, and this has been discussed elsewhere is that IE7 scrollable divs and the CSS position attribute do not play well together.
