Crappy Problem...

afmanuk · #1 (**permalink**) Nov 22nd, 2007, 18:25

I know this is really basic problem...
But I can't seem to find a solution to it...
I have a gap...
(Can't be bothered to link css right now)
Link

I know it's crap etc etc. It's just a quick favour for a friend

Where's the gap? It all looks good to me...

afmanuk · #3 (**permalink**) Nov 22nd, 2007, 18:29

I see that gap

Stuart · #4 (**permalink**) Nov 22nd, 2007, 18:31

That is caused by the images. See:

And the other one:
content_top.png
Put them together, and you get a gap...

Add "margin-top: -5px;" to your mainContent div style.

e.g.

Code: Select all

#mainContent
{
	width: 586px;
	height: 400px;
	display: block;
	overflow: auto;
        margin-top: -5px;
}

That sounds like the best fix. Use margin-top: -3px; though. Otherwise, IE squeezes the image...

afmanuk · #7 (**permalink**) Nov 23rd, 2007, 07:10

Haha. Thanks for all your help

I'll probably just use the -5px margin-top for now and change the images when I can be bothered

Stuart · #8 (**permalink**) Nov 23rd, 2007, 13:26

OK. Sounds good.

The site doesn't look good in IE7. The text is below the box it's supposed to sit in.

welshstew · #10 (**permalink**) Nov 23rd, 2007, 14:14

You have a similar issue in IE6, it's inside you container but the box is extended. It looks like the the box is sitting under the nav.

Yeah, I noticed that too. Fortunately, I fixed it. Here is the code:

That should do it... Also, I put the <style> stuff inside the <head> where it is supposed to be. Don't put it in the <body>!
By the way, the margin should be -3px. -5px screws up IE and squeezes the image... Oh, and don't bother changing the images, that won't do it. When I said that, I though you meant the gap between the header and the body, that huge ~100px space. But then, I realized that you meant the small gap at the top of the container. So, again, use the -3px margin, editing the images won't do it.

Cheers
