I have a web page that shows lots of tabular data and each of these tables needs to be placed on one horizontal line. I have mocked up an example below: <html> <style> .outer{width:300px;height:300px;overflow: scroll;} .inner{white-space: nowrap;} .inline{float: left;} </style> <body> <div class="outer"> <div class="inner"> ...
Is it possible to define the tab-width when whitespace is displayed (say within a <pre> tag or something)? I can't find anything to do this with CSS, but this seems like it would be a pretty common thing to want to do. In my case, the tab width is so wide that it causes some of my code snippets on a page to be too wide. If I could someh...
My webpage contains: <link href="/Content/Site.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <style type="text/css"> td { padding-left:10px; } </style> The referenced stylesheet contains: .rightColumn * {margin: 0; padding: 0;} I have a table in the rightcolumn ID where I want the cells to have a little padding. However, the refere...

It is suppose to be a 1x1 semi-transparent .png image that repeats. IE8 renders it as a gradient!!! It get's even wonkier when you try to scroll your window or mouse-over the sidebar. I had alread...
I'd like to use the richfaces panel as its basically the right shape and is skinnable, so I can change font, colour etc. However, as part of the default skin the horizontal bar containing the header has a gradient. My design has a flat simple colour with no gradient of any kind. How do I stop richfaces adding a gradient? If possible I...
Hello, I am trying to create a bracket system using HTML. I've found other solutions, however, most require lots of absolute/relative positioning or tables. I'm looking for a way to make it flexible, so I can just change the HTML to change it from a 16-man bracket to a 64-man bracket. What I have so far (2 examples) Now, I don't see ...

Lately I have been seeing an increasing number of design articles encouraging the use of typographic quotes (Curly Quotes) for use in web pages over straight quotes. While I agree typographically, that correct quotes are that much more appealing and add a nice touch to a design, I wonder if it is actually better practice from an encodi...
I have to create a name-value list in HTML. (Actually they are form elements, label and input) How do I build this output so that a web designer can create the following three different layouts without changing the original HTML structure? Variant 1: Name One: Value One Name Two: Value Two Variant 2: Name One: Value One L...
I'm a software developer, not a designer, but I'm being forced to design websites. In the past, I designed "by hand", never using anyone of these before. Now, I have found that there are a lot of CSS framewoks. I want to give a try to some of these, but I don't know where to begin and I don't want to waste my time. I think the most popu...
I'm trying to design some HTML/CSS that can put a border around specific rows in a table. Yes, I know I'm not really supposed to use tables for layout but I don't know enough CSS to completely replace it yet. Anyways, I have a table with multiple rows and columns, some merged with rowspan and colspan, and I'd like to put a simple border...

Hi, I have a webpage that has a bunch of very boring HTML lists on it. I'm looking for some examples of ways to style these with CSS to make them look more interesting. So far I've only really found one, and would welcome some other examples. Thanks, Don ...
Hi, I've styled some unordered HTML lists and their heading to look like this in Firefox: Unfortunately, in IE7, they look like this: The relevant HTML is <div class="list-column"> <h4>Types de pêche</h4> <ul> <li>Pêche en lac</li> <li>Pêche en Rivière</li> </ul> </div> And the CSS is: .list-column ...
I actually know how the browsers tend to render the following examples (results based on Opera 9.5 and Firefox 3.0), but I don't understand the reason behind them. Take this example, <style type="text/css"> #outer{color:red;} .inner{color:blue;} </style> <div id="outer" class="outer"> <div id="inner" class="inner"> <span>test...
I know others have asked about using class and id in CSS files, such as Div: Class vs Id So I'm aware of the semantic and syntactic differences between class and id: that id should be used for elements that are used only once and class should be used for elements that share attributes in common. But this isn't a hard-and-fast rule, i...

I've just been working on a page which needs to be accessible to both sighted and visually impaired users. Some elements of the content, just by the nature of relating only to visual elements, simply do not apply to people using screen readers. For example, a link opens an audio-visual presentation in a new window, but due to circumstanc...
