mazman13 Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 My site : www.mzliveonline.com/mzLive The center and right text areas are set to absolute. The problem with that is that when you click on hide submenu on the nav bars, the other areas move but the center and right stay the same. What can I do to make this work? I've got alot more areas to put in place. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/143396-layout-problems/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky_PHP_MAN Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 well, since it is absolute, it would remain there. how about changing position to relative? is it the same result?

DamienRoche Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 How are you positioning the absolute element. If you are using top:; etc that will stick it there, but if you use margin-top:; or the shorthand margin: 0 0 0 0; top, right, bottom, left - it may move. From the looks of that page, there is 'absolutely' no reason why you can't position these relatively. Hope that helps.

mazman13 Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 Yeah, I've tried relative and all that does it move it below the People Mag feed. Let me try margin-top, ect and see how that does. What is the difference between margin and margin-top or whatever?

DamienRoche Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 just margin on it's own is either to apply margin to all sides: margin:10px; or shorthand for specifying the margin for each side in one declaration: margin: 2px 10px 2px 10px; That's top, right, bottom, left ---more on your issue, if the relative positioning moves it below the mag feed, then you need position it betters. It's no good simply adding position:relative; and hoping for the best. You have to tweak these things. You will probably need to float both of those elements to the left. Also, is it really necessary to have a hide submenu function? I've never seen one on a site and if it doesn't remember my preference it would be pretty useless; I'd have to keep pressing it every time. Hope that helps.

mazman13 Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 lol the submenu function is def not needed. It was just on the script I got. So you think that I should float everything to the left and position: relative?
