I have what I think is some pretty basic css, and it behaves differently in FF4 and IE8.
The CSS in question is like this:
div.showme {
border: 1px dotted blue;
position: absolute;
top :10px;
bottom :10px;
left: 1%;
right: 33%;
overflow: auto;
padding: 0.8em 1em 0.8em 1em;
line-height:1.75em;
}
div.showme a {
padding: 0em 5px 0em 5px;
margin: 0;
white-space: nowrap;
color: #FF00FF;
background-color:#E6E6FA;
border: 1px solid grey;
padding: 0em 4px 0em 4px; }
div.showme a:link { color: blue; }
div.showme a:visited { color: #1E90FF; }
div.showme a:active { color: red; }
The relevant HTML looks like this:
<div class='showme'>
<a href='one'>one</a>
<a href='two'>two</a>
...
</div>
The problem is, the padding is not consistently displayed, in IE8.
In Firefox, it works as I would expect.
working example:
http://jsbin.com/ogosa4
Using the above working demonstration, if you resize the window you will see the padding on the "leading" element on each line within the div, change from zero to non-zero.
How can I fix this?
If you add display: inline-block; to your div.showme a {} the padding will be applied in IE also, but it has some impact with the line height and you may need to specify additional margin's
I have seen this behaviour in Opera too. The padding goes to the upper line. Try display: inline-block and white-space:nowrap if you have more than one word in the link...
You can safely use inline-block in IE7 with inline tags.

Morning,
I have the following code that works in all browsers other than IE. I want a blue border to appear when clicking on input boxes, however did not want to see the elements resizing and positioning. I fixed this by putting a border colour to match the background colour, thus removing the resizing effect. However, on IE, you get ghost borders which seem to be a combination of both the border radius and border colour (background colour). Any ideas of how to fix this without using box shadow?
Screen Shot showing ghost borders:
input,
textarea,
select {
position: relative;
display: block;
border: 3px solid #4f4f4f;
border-radius: 10px;
margin: 6px auto 22px auto;
width: 260px;
font-size: 13px;
text-align: center;
&:focus {
outline: none;
border: 3px solid #4cc7fa;
}
}
Many thanks!
You can do like this to overcome the ghost/resize/re-positioning effect, where you change border-width on focus and compensate its re-positioning with a negative top
body {
background: gray;
}
input,
textarea,
select {
position: relative;
display: block;
border: 0px solid gray;
border-radius: 10px;
margin: 6px auto 22px auto;
width: 260px;
font-size: 13px;
text-align: center;
}
input:focus {
top: -3px;
outline: none;
border: 3px solid #4cc7fa;
}
<input type="text">
I would use the following javascript:
Your-function() {
document.getElementsByTagName('input','textarea','select').classlist.toggle('show')
}
add display:none to input:focus
add the following css
.show
{
display:block;
}
Note: Add onclick="Yourfunction()" to your markup to load the js.

That weird or what?
Here's the CSS:
.highlight {
display: inline-block;
border-radius: 5px;
margin: 10px;
border: 1px solid gray;
}
How do I lose the holes?
To answer your question...
Yes, that is weird but not that weird.
In terms of fixing it...
Well that depends on the HTML you have there. Assuming (as i have) that its a textarea inside a div with rounded corners then you should be able to use overflow:hidden to ensure the textarea's corners are clipped. EG:
.highlight {
display: inline-block;
border-radius: 5px;
margin: 10px;
border: 1px solid #333;
background:white;
overflow:hidden; /* <- try adding this */
transform:translateY(100%) scale(3); /* <- nothing to do with the solution - just zooming in so you can see the corner */
}
textarea {
border: none;
background:red;
}
<div class="highlight">
<textarea>
It not that weird
</textarea>
</div>
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?
http://jsfiddle.net/S4st8/
HTML:
<div id="navigation">
<div id="navigation-inner">
<div id="page-nav">
<div id="primary-nav">
<ul id="top-menu">
<li id="li-left">Product Training Videos</li>
<li id="li-right">Educational Courses</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
#navigation {

margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
height: 40px;
width: 100%;
}
#navigation-inner {
margin: 0px auto;
padding: 0px;
height: 48px;
width: 960px;
}
#page-nav {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
height: 40px;
width: 960px;
}
div#primary-nav {
position: relative;
display: block;
float: left;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
ul#top-menu {
margin: -5px 0.325em 0 0.325em;
position: absolute;
padding: 0;
z-index: 100;
top: 0;
left: 3em;
width: 367px;
}
ul#top-menu li {
line-height: 3em;
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;

Reading and understanding those pages will give you few reputations points
I have an <h2> title into a fixed with <div> (238px). When this page is rendered, the browser manage line breaks into the title to make the text fit the width (238px).
But the width property of the h2 element is still 238px, no matters where the line breaks are.
I want to set a border-bottom only under the text, and not under the full width of the h2 element, and I don't know how to achieve this using CSS.
You can see what I mean here : http://jsfiddle.net/np3rJ/2/
Thanks
I think this is what you need:
<h2><span>Horizon 2020, nouvelles opportunités</span></h2>
h2 span {
position: relative;
padding-bottom: 5px;
}
h2 span::after{
position: absolute;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 1px;
border-bottom: 1px solid #000;
content: ""
}
Working demo in jsFiddle
I used the technique described in this answer: Advanced CSS challenge: underline only the final line of text with CSS
I introduced a span into the H2 in order not to change the display attribute of it, but you could just as easily use the same technique with a display: inline on your H2. This method would allow the control of the actual line though rather than setting display: inline if needed
This works on Chrome.
h2 {
width: fit-content;
}
If you are willing to use display: table-cell, and pseudo-elements, you can have a pretty good solution (with some minor limitations).
The HTML does not change:
<div class="dossier_titre">
<h2>Horizon 2020, nouvelles opportunités</h2>
</div>
and you can apply the following CSS:
.zone_33 {
width: 238px;
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
}
.zone_33 .dossier_titre {
margin: 0px 0px 20px 0px;
}
.zone_33 h2 {
color: #616263;
font-size: 150%;
font-weight: lighter;
padding: 0px 0px 12px 0px;
background: none;
border-bottom: 1px solid grey;
display: table-cell;
text-transform: uppercase;
}
.zone_33 .dossier_titre:after {
content: "";
display: table-cell;
width: 100%;
}
For the <h2> element, set display: table-cell, and add a pseudo-element after .dossier_titre (the containing block for the header/title element). The pseudo-element is also a table-cell and has a width of 100% (this is the key).
Also, since h2 is no longer a block element, add your margins to .dossier_titre to maintain the visual spacing in our layout.
How This Works
I am creating a two-cell table with the second cell (the pseudo-element) having a width of 100%. This triggers the browser to calculate the shrink-to-fit width for the first cell (h2) that contains the title text. The first cell's width is thus the minimal needed to display the text. The bottom border is as long as the longest text line in the text block within the table-cell.
Limitations
table-cell is not supported in IE7 without a hack, but the work-around is fairly well known and can be found if needed.
If the title had many short words, you might get the line breaking in unexpected places. You would need to insert   to keep specific words together as needed.

Maybe display: inline-block; Or display: inline; is what you need?
Why not try:
text-decoration:underline
?
EDIT
Just make a span around "OPPORTUNITÉS" with the underline.
<h2>Horizon 2020, nouvelles <span class="underline">opportunités</span> </h2>
.underline {
text-decoration:underline
}
Can try "text-underline-position" property instead of table-cell and border. Make it simple!
text-decoration: underline;
text-underline-position: under;
All you can do is put your h2 element text into span like this:
<h2><span>Horizon 2020, nouvelles opportunités</span></h2>
and in css remove border-bottom from .zone_33 h2 {} and put it like this:
.zone_33 h2 span{ border-bottom: 1px solid grey;}
by this border-bottom will come under full text.
Try this, (I think it will help you)
.heading {
position: relative;
color: $gray-light;
font-weight: 700;
bottom: 5px;
padding-bottom: 5px;
display:inline-block;
}
.heading::after {
position: absolute;
display:inline-block;
border: 1px solid $brand-primary !important;
bottom: -1px;
content: "";
height: 2px;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
}
You could put a border-bottom and change the width of your h2 so that the border length matches your h2 length. Adjust the width to the width of your h2, taking into consideration it's font-size. Then add a padding-bottom to your h2 and set it to your liking.
<h2>Cats</h2>
h2{
border-bottom: 5px solid black;
font-size: 16px;
padding-bottom: 5px;
width: 64px;
}
First i will show you the problem, wich only happens on IE6/IE7
As you can see, when the length of the innerHtml it's not long, no problem; but when it's 'longer' the sprite set as bg image gets repeated and the text jumps to the next line...
now, the CSS
.contButton {
list-style: none;
float: right;
}
.contButton p {
float: left;
display: inline; /*For ignore double margin in IE6*/
margin: 0 0 0 10px !important;
}
.contButton a {
text-decoration: none !important;
float: left;
color: #FFF;
cursor: pointer;
font-size: 14px !important;
line-height: 21px;
font-weight: bold !important;
}
.contButton span {
margin: 0px 10px 0 -10px;
padding: 3px 8px 5px 18px;
position: relative; /*To fix IE6 problem (not displaying)*/
float:left;
}
/*ESTADO NORMAL AZUL*/
.contButton p a {
background: url(../nImg/spriteBotones.png) no-repeat right -214px;
_background: url(../nImg/spriteBotones.gif) no-repeat right -214px;
color: #FFF;
}
.contButton p a span {
background: url(../nImg/spriteBotones.png) no-repeat left -214px;
_background: url(../nImg/spriteBotones.gif) no-repeat left -214px;
}
And the Html:
<div class="">
....
<div class="contButton mt10">
<p><a tabindex="" title="acceder" href="#"><span>ver disponibilidad</span></a></p>
</div>
...
</div>
This is the bg Image.
![the sprite][2]
Tried with:
<!--[if IE lte 7]>
<style type="text/css">
/*
.contNombrePrecioHtl .contButton p a{ height:20px; }
.contNombrePrecioHtl .contButton p a span{ height:20px; width:auto; } */
</style>
<![endif]-->
But that didn't solve the problem...
PS: class="mt10" it's only a margin-top:10px;
Any idea how to solve this for the glorious IE6/7?
Try adding white-space: nowrap to .contButton.
change this:
.contButton span {
margin: 0px 10px 0 -10px;
padding: 3px 8px 5px 18px;
position: relative; /*To fix IE6 problem (not displaying)*/
float:left;
white-space: nowrap;
}
I don't think it is a problem with either IE versions, it's probably just the newer browsers being less strict about this particular thing. I haven't tested anything, but "display:inline-block" has helped me sometimes. Still it doesn't seem like the most effective solution. The width seems to be limiting here, you shouldn't give the thing a fixed width if you don't want the text to "jump" into a second line...
can you try to add overflow: hidden to each parent of element with float: left? in this case you will have to add it to each div, p and a. I am not sure whether your actual code is optimal.
Moreover, float: left; and display: inline together make no sense. This might be the reason of the strange behaviour. Delete display: inline (remember about adding overflow: hidden to its parent) and it should work.
Haven't tested though.
UPDATE:
apparently as the author of the question mentions float:left + display: inline fixes IE6 double margin bug for floating elements.
defining dimensions for elements like p oder span is always somewhere between tricky and impossible, because they are inline elements. I'd recommend modifying the surrounding block element div.contButton.
In addition to height you should set overflow to hidden:
.contButton {
height:20px;
width:219px;
overflow: hidden;
}
