The problem is that it shows first N characters and I want to show last N chars. How do I achieve it with CSS? Te...
A demonstration of the problem is here. http://www.vcn.bc.ca/~dugan/css3/newhtml.html The multi-column CSS3 layout displays correctly in Firefox. Opera and IE8 display it as one column (which is fine). Chrome, however, tries to display it as multiple columns and cuts off part of the text. Is there any way to make it work with Chrome? ...
It seems that firefox automatically combines things, such as it takes individual css values, such as for "border-color", "border-width" and dumps them all into "border".. this makes things a pain for jquery as the .css selector can only select the individual ones, like "border-color", not just "border" or "background".. I need to get the...

I'm working on a webpage (link text), but I'm having trouble with the height property in Google Chrome. If you view the page, you'll notice that there is no background color. This is because the #mainContent has a height of 0px. In Internet Explorer, this is not the case. Does anyone have ideas? ...

I am looking without much luck how to center an element (a table) vertically. I tried CSS vertical-align: middle; which did not work I also tried margin-top: auto; margin-bottom: auto; which also did not work. I also used the table attribute valign as "middle" which still did not work. I am using Chrome but have tested all these stra...
Hi, If I change the zoom in my browser, the background image (the logo of my website) is positioned differently with respect to the other elements of the website. I'm using: background-image:url('tbs-logo.png'); background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position: 92% 22%; I was wondering if I can keep it aligned with the other element...
I have two <div>s on my page. I want to arrange them side-by side, so that the first (right) shrinks to fit it's contents (unknown width), and the second (left) expands to fill the remaining horizontal width. The two columns do not need to be equal in height. Additionally, I would like to create a 5px gap between the edges of the two b...

I'm using an ul as an inline menu, with a background image for each li. The ul is absolutely positioned. No matter what I do I don't seem to be able to move the text of each item vertically with respect to the background. Horizontal is fine with text-align: center. The background for each 'button' is of critical height as I am integratin...
My forehead is bruised out of frustration over this issue. In the standards compliant browsers my layout looks fine but, of course, IE7 and IE6 like to make a hot mess of everything. I'm trying to make a simple header that has some text to the left and a form inline on the right. The header is 835px wide and centered using auto margins. ...

My typical workflow for editing and building my stylesheets for HTML documents is open the Firefox web developer toolbar's Edit CSS panel and edit directly in the browser window. Most of the time this works like a charm. There are times, however, that when I open the Edit CSS panel, certain images disappear, and I have no idea why. And ...
OK, here's my problem I thought that using Google Webfonts would take care of all the cross Browser mess for me, well guess what, I was wrong. It turns out that Firefox does not like Droid Sans Mono. In particular, it renders bold glyphs WIDER than the non bold ones, which turns out to be very unhandy when you're creating a terminal bas...
