Chezshire Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Hello everyone, and thanks in advance to anyone who can offer some assistance with my div issue. I'm a college student (so i'm very much a newbie here) and I'm trying to build my css template which I will then use to convert my table based layout to a css based design. Currently i'm having a problem getting the divs to work in the header portion of the layout (everything else is workin ok at the moment - although I'm sure there is always room for improvement ) And before anyone asks, I would ask my teacher for help but i'm down with the flu and can't go to class and I'm trying not to fall behind -- so any help is very much appreciated). WHAT I'M TRYING TO DO EXACTLY: I'm trying to create three boxes (divs) in the header portion of my layout. Within the header div, I want to position the three following boxes as so: [*]#Indicia :: I want this to be position to the left with a total width of 200pxs and a height of 230 pixels (This is working - yeah for me!) #Banner :: I want to position this to the upper right, with a total of 700pxs and a total height of 130pxs. #navigation :: I want to position this to the bottom right of the header div. I want it have a total width of 700pxs and a total height of 20pxs. [*] A mock up of what I'm hoping to ultimately build can be seen here (it's rough, i'll be making some design adjustments etc - but i did do everything down to the logo art so thats kind of kewl): http://xpg.us/xSCC/xFinalP/dinnersforsinners/index.php Current template file i'm working on can be viewed here: http://xpg.us/xSCC/xFinalP/dinnersforsinners/template/index.html MY CODE: dfs_divs.css: * { padding: 0; margin: 0; } #wrapper { width: 900px; margin: 0 auto; } #header { background-color:#ccc8b3; width: 900px; height: 230px; margin: 0px; border: 0px; padding: 0px; float: left; } #indicia { background-color:#fff; width: 200px; height: 230px; margin: 0px; border: 0px; padding: 0px; float: left; } #banner { background: #555; width: 700px; height: 200px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; float: right; display: inline; } #navigation { background: #f00; width: 700px; height: 30px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; float: right; display: inline; } #leftcolumn { background: #aa9f4e; width: 200px; height: 350px; margin: 0px; border: 0px; float: left; } #rightcolumn { background: #fffff1; width: 680px; height: 330px; margin: 0px; padding: 10px; border: 0px; float: right; display: inline; } #footer { width: 900px; height: 30px; background-color:#f3f2ed; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; clear: both; } #login { width: 200px; height: 30px; background-color:#432; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; float: left; } div.login { min-height: 30px; display: table-cell; vertical-align: middle; } #legal { text-align: center; width: 700px; height: 30px; background-color:#432; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; float: right; display: inline; } Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chezshire Posted October 28, 2009 Author Share Posted October 28, 2009 Problem solved -- I mislabeled on of my divs (duh). I'm a newb. Thank you to those who looked at my problem and were considering answers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
