I often inspect sites using firebug and have noticed quite a range of complexity in the way developers wrap their content. Looking especially at centered aligned layouts: At the simplest end are sites like 99designs.com which simply apply a margin: 0 auto to the body element. Body -> Header/Content/... Next along the scale are...
To vertically-center align text in a table-cell, I use vertical-align: middle in the td. But the above doesn't work with divs, spans, header and other non-table elements. So how can I vertically-center align text in such elements ? ...

Ok, I have a label, inside this label is a div, which contains an image, and some text. The div has an onClick call to a javascript function, that changes the color of the div inside the label, and also checks the checkbox (for some reason, IE and firefox didn't want to check it correctly, chrome worked fine). Javascript: <script langua...

I have tried several incarnations of the overflow attribute in the div's style. None work for IE! Really, I am typing into a texbox and using javascript to render the html in div of equal porportions while I type. I use mydiv.innerHTML = txt; to populate the div. But the hortizontal scroll bar keeps appearing. ...
So I have a div in my body that's a percentage width, and inside that a div with inline style as follows: text-align: center; margin-left: -15px; margin-right: -15px; overflow:hidden As you can see, I have text-align center on, which would, if the image was small enough for the div, center the image. But the percentage width div is de...
Is there a way to get a div to always be at the bottom of the window, and another div to change its height to fill any space that it leaves, and that div will scroll if its content is too long. (I never want the window to scroll). This is best illustrated by a picture: The green div will always put itself at the bottom of the window,...
Whenever I create my own personal web pages, I've always had this problem with using divs to create a multi-column layout. I use the float attribute to align them to the left or right, but when I make the browser window skinnier, the columns re-adjust where one column falls below the other and other things mess up with alignment. I would...

Hi, I've been playing around with the grid-a-licious theme, and found some really cool sites similar to the theme: ex. http://home.visuaal.com/ The question is: any idea on how the post contents were loaded similar to the sample above? When the user clicks on each box, the specific div expands and displays/loads the entire post. When t...
This problem is happening for me on IE8 and Chrome which makes me think this is a standards thing. I am creating a site with header and menu using DIVs that do not have any content but do have background images and heights / widths set in CSS. I want the inner DIV to have margin against the parent div but it applies the margin to the pa...
I'm trying to find eveything inside a div using regexp. I'm aware that there probably is a smarter way to do this - but I've chosen regexp. so currently my regexp pattern looks like this: $gallery_pattern = '/([\s\S]*)<\/div>/'; And it does the trick - somewhat. the problem is if i have two divs after each other - like this. <div c...
I have a main page from where I am making a call to "load" and intermediate page's HTML and on the completion of the load I am massaging the returned HTML to add a few DIVs etc, when I try to bind an onclick event for the dynamic Divs (added by me after the HTML returned from the intermediate page) it does not seem to work at all !: LOA...

In the code below I have 2 divs, each having two nested divs. When the browser window is re-sized under Firefox/IE8 it all works well - The rightmost parent div falls down under the first one. Under IE6, however (or IE8 with compatibility mode) the child divs in the second div wrap. To make things worse, it happens DESPITE the fact I've...
