| What attributes should I use to have a border around a layout fit snug around that layout Width=100% ? |
| Huh? |
| Got a layout, want to put a border around the layout Follow me ? So I figured id use a table and stylize that table |
| Are you talking about the default margin/padding on the body/html elements Well that would be silly |
| Yes |
| Html, body { margin: 0; padding: 0; } You shouldn't use a table for anything other than tabular data |
| Well then how do you suggest I add a border around a layout |
| Html { border: 1px solid #000; } ? I'm not sure what you mean |
| Take for example osCommerce Ever work with imt ? |
| You could also put it around the most closely related element... |
| You know how it leaves spaces open and shit? I just want to close all that off, put a border around the layout A border around the header/footer And left and right sides Get it now ? |
| So add a frickin' border to that element |
| #wrapper { border: 1px solid black; } |
| Border: 1px solid #color |
| It wouldnt come out right if i added borders to the specific elements |
| You can add it to whatever you want That's what css is really good at |
| optomeb: you dont have a wrapper element that contains your header/footer/content etc? |
| Klimapol : im using osC, so im pretty sure not |
| Look at your rendered result... pick the element that you want to add the border to |
| Yes, but then it would border the entire element instead of the the 4 sides I need bordered |
| optomeb: you can use border-width: to disable the border on some edges |
| Klimapol : that would be a mess, there is a tag to contain header/content/footer , and then just add a border to that tag ? |
| Boxes only have 4 sides |
| Well my images are also set to bg |
| optomeb: do you havea link? |
| Is that what a wrapper tag does, where could I learn about a wrapper tag A link to what |
| Your page |
| Not at the moment no |
| So we can view your source |
| Is it ok to be derogatory yet? |
| What for Http://www.xpalms5.made2own.com/wifitech/ See how the border is bordering the edges of the page and not the layout ?? thats because of width=100% , but how would I get it just to outline the general layout |
| So add a silly border to the body element Oh Just the middle part? |
| Ya Just the layout Just the design I should say |
| Put all that garbage in a div width: 830px; give it a border and center it |
| Around all 4 edges |
| Well, it would be far easier if you hadn't used tables... but add an id to the outer table and/or surround it with a div And then just use the stuff we told you earlier |
| So add a id tag, and then use wrapper ? Is wrapper a selector ? |
| Are you sure that you are the best person to be in charge of an ecommerce site? |
| You can also do body { width: 830px; margin: 0 auto; } |
| Why, are you doubting my abilities ? Thanks Klimapol |
| Well duh This isn't even the tough stuff |
| This is my third ecommerce site Im not gonna say im a know it all, but I know enough to secure myself and make everything work right php wise. |
| But you don't even have the basic skills of web development? scary |
| Im learning man, cant knock me for that Mmbeer and Klimapol : I try to absorb as much info as I can, ya know, I have read books and I do know html/css pretty decently, I just get frustrated and turn to chans for help sometimes because its quicker than diagnosing the problem on my own, but for those who care, it works, and worked perfectly, thank you both. |
| The problem is, that you obviously don't know css or html... a quick glance at your page reveals as much ;) |
| Thats not my code Lol |
