| | Hey guys,
I'm making a new template because I decided that I needed a much simpler one that goes with the times.
Template here: http://nerdnirvana.org/newlay0ut/v3.htm
As you can see, everything looks fine, but if the content area is smaller in length than the sidebar, then the layout screws up because the layout refuses to expand to encompass everything. Link: http://nerdnirvana.org/newlay0ut/comments.htm
Does anyone know what I can do so that the layout expands if necessary? I tried clearing the div, but that doesn't help.
Thanks! |

did you try putting the nav menu coding within the div tag that runs the overall look?

Yep, I did that. Makes no difference.

ooooh oooh I just thought of it why don't you try putting a blank image for a background to use it as a filler to expand it? or did you try resizing the table in the css?

You need to float #content left and give it an appropriate width. Then, remove the absolute positioning from #linkList and give it a margin-left wider than the width of #content. Ideally both those two columns should go inside their own wrapper div which should have overflow:hidden applied to it so that Firefox expands to contain the floats (IE does this incorrectly by default).

Like this, except I don't have the overflow:idden there yet... http://www.jlhaslip.trap17.com/testsidebar/sidebar9.html

Yeah, Jim's example's right even though his narrow column is on the opposite side to yours. Whichever column comes first in the source is the one that needs to be floated. So in your case snlildude87, it needs to be your wide column.

Html Ascii Codes - A Complete List

Html Question Concerning Pre Tag And Code Tag

from sounding as though it is perfect for displaying code which IMO it is not. Thanks. ...

Html And Xhtml

Right now I have a site, which I've made XHTML 1.0 Strict. I am sending it as
application/xhtml+xml to browsers that say they can handle it, and as text/html to all other
browsers. Anyway, I started thinking that I'd much rather send proper HTML 4.01 to browsers that
don't understand XHTML instead of XHTML pretending to be HTML 4.01. It's not really a
problem with IE, because it is made to handle badly written sites, but who knows, some browser that
can handle HTML, but not XHTML, may be (correctly) parsing CODE <p> Hello <br />
