Hi,
I am having a thick day. Nothing I am doing seems to be working - which is worrying. I've so far killed one comp and am now mutilating some html pages.
The problem:
Gallery page looking like this
--------Menu---------------
gallery section-------------
|------col 1--|--- col 2----|
|-----links---|-links-------|
|------to-----|----to-------|
|---section--|----section--|
Only I've used divs, and they are on top of one another, if I float left they go way left too far in fact, they also jump out of the gallery div section if they are floated.
Anyone who could pls take the time and point out hte obvious.
Also I tried Spans but I dunno if these arre flly supported in Nutscrape... are they now?
VinceWhat are our chances of seeing your code?css filehtmlI put in spans for the moment but I did want to use the divs.
Still - thick moment.. so I guess the spans will do.
Obviously change the file extensions...
VinceI seem to remember having this sort of trouble before, but I'd specified margins not widths for my containing div. I'll take a closer look tomorrow. (it's kinda late around here..)I've just checked nutscrape with the styling, and half of it does not work... sigh...Take a look at this file (I've out the css into the html page) and see if it's what you want.
All I've done is floated the one column left, and the other right. I had to add some id's to them to do that.
Then we can fiddle round with margins/padding/netscape.Hi,
Cheers, but its not what I'd like. The spans are closer, but nutscrape has no idea what to do and screws them up, so my next experiment is a table, with styled cells, instead of the divs, or poss divs in the cells, not sure yet.
<div style='width: 10px; border: solid 1px #000'></div><div style='width: 10px; border: solid 1px #000'></div>
<table cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 style='text-align: center;'>
<tr><td style='width: 100px; border: solid 1px #000'> st </td>
<td style='width: 100px; border: solid 1px #000'> st </td></tr>
</table>Can you draw what you want in a graphics program? I can't really help you unless I know what you want it to look like...right. erm.
Tell you what, I'll upload the development as it is atm so you can see.
It works in IE, nutscrape doesn't want to know, messes it all up.

Also, some of te pictures haven't been uploaded. I am redoing my Wifes site, going for simplistic but nice layouts.
VinceNetscape goes according to standards. You can't use padding on an inline element.
Try
line-height: 2em;
instead (on your a tag)I take it that is the home (first) page? for the 2em?
I think the links work on the top. Or do you mean the poems section too?
VinceLOL I didn't realise I was supposed to browse to a sub section. I was just pointing out that on the first page the a tags look different.Yeah..
Well nutscrape does weird stuff throughout.
Gonna be interesting to implement properly for both browsers.
The divs side by side I wanted for the gallery page (initial) and I put it into a table I think, and styled the contents of the cells instead of using divs.
In IE looks ok and almost what I want
