TeddyKiller Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 I'm wanting a template with 3 collums a total width of 1000px, left and right collum, should be 180px width. and the center collum the rest of it. with a left and right margin of 24px, backgrounds completely white. Now here's where the problem may lay,between each collums, so left and right border should be a grey colour. Now the problem with that, i'm wanting the height not to be a fixed size. So the more information in it, the bigger it is. Although with a minimum height of 500px. Whenever I try, it all goes wrong. So.. I'm just.. fed up. I need someone to quickly do it for me and I'll learn from it. The desired header, is this. <body><div id="top"> <div id="header"> <div id="extra"><span><a style="margin-bottom:8px;" href="#">My Account</a> | <a href="logout.php">Log Out</a></span></div> <div id="navigator"> <ul id="topnav"> <li><a href="/">Home</a></li> <li><a href="/main.php?sk=wall">Horble Wall</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </div></body> CSS is.. body { font: 100% Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:12px; margin: 0; padding: 0; color: #000000; background:#E1E3DE; text-align: left; } #top { height:40px; background:#e11919; } #header { background:url(ima/hdrtit.jpg) no-repeat; width:1000px; height:40px; margin: 0 auto; } #header a, #header a visted, #header a active, #header a hover { color:#FFF; font-weight:normal; text-decoration:none; } #header { color:#FFF; } #navigator { width:450px; margin-left:260px; height:40px; } #extra { height: 38px; line-height: 38px; float:right; width:200px; text-align:right; margin-right:10px; } ul#topnav { border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; width:100%; height:38px; position: relative; } ul#topnav li { float: left; margin: 0 0.15em; } ul#topnav li a { height: 38px; line-height: 38px; margin-top:1px; float: left; width: 80px; display: block; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; text-align: center; } #topnav li a:hover, #topnav li.active a, #topnv li a.selected { color:#e11919; background:#fff; } Sorry it's a bit messy, you can tidy it up if you want. I'm just wanting this sorted out asap. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeddyKiller Posted April 1, 2010 Author Share Posted April 1, 2010 The problem with it is.. I want it all maximum height. Though expands when theres more text.. and it dont. It's stupid :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeddyKiller Posted April 1, 2010 Author Share Posted April 1, 2010 Got it working, used my current template that I had, height:100% is ideal, but it dont work. So.. what happens is.. the site height is a min-height:500px, so I set it as min-height:500px for the center collum. Works sweetly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
