View 10 RepliesI basically have this....
<div id="page">
<div id="leftPane">
picture previews
</div>
<div id="Picture">
A picture here
</div>
</div>
I'm trying to do this in javascript
function setMargin()
{
document.getElementById("Picture").style.margin-left = "200px";
}
Except, that doesn't set the margin properly in IE. In FF & opera it
works fine.
Stumbled onto this one: retrieving the margin doesn't seem to work in Firefox or Opera. This is code I'm using, which works fine in Chrome, Safari and IE:
var contentmarginl = parseInt($('#wrapper').css('marginLeft')); // fails
var contentwidth = $('#wrapper').width(); // works alert(contentmarginl);
The alert returns (in my case) 350 in the complying browsers and 0 in FF and Opera. Is this a bug or my error? Is there a known workaround? EDIT: Just tested in XP sp3 IE7 & IE8. Returns Not a Number (NaN)
All is on the title, sorry for my english, i'm french :) I have an html page with style
<style>
#mydiv {
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
width:250px;
}
</style>
with jquery, i try to get the margin-left ($('#mydiv').css('margin-left'), but the function return 0px, unable to retrieve the good value (auto) anyone has idea to retrieve the value "auto" when margin-left is "auto" ?
I am trying to dynamically change my "margin-left" attribute in javascript using the following line and it isn't working:
PHP Code:
document.getElementById(ring).setAttribute("margin-left", "5%");
The ring element looks like so:
PHP Code:
#ring
{
margin-left:25%;
margin-top:6%;
z-index:100;
}
is there any feature to slide the images in accordion form left to right and right to left with minimum time frame(delay)?
View 1 Replies View Relatedi want to be able to detect how far the margin-left and margin-top is on the current page.
detect this:
body {
margin-left: 0px;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-right: 0px;
margin-bottom: 0px;
}
I tried this:
marginLeft = document.body.style.margin-left;
alert(marginLeft);
and this:
Code:
marginLeft = document.body.style.marginLeft;
alert(marginLeft);
I've set my margin as a % and am trying to get the value via jquery. It's being returned as a pixel value from safari and firefox, chrome is returning the percentage. OuterWidth returns an incorrect value (reporting as 1px more than innerWidth and I know it's 4px).

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have just been making a JavaScript chat applet, which should open in a new child window. It does all of this fine, and works within Firefox beatifully. However, IE thinks it's necessary to stop my
iFrames from spaning the entire length and width of the Window, and add about 7-8mm of padding/margin to the inside of the Window.
I can't figure out, whether it's adding it to the inside of the window, or the outside of the frame.
Please could someone point out how I might be able to go about removing this padding? It's rediculous. I don't mind the border one bit, but no matter what I do, it's chopping off 14-16mm of the bottom iFrame. The window needs to be resizable, so unfortunately, the bottom iFrame is a
set pixel hight, but the top iFrame works with a percentage (i.e 100% of the frameset surrounding it).
I would like to get the height of a div. This div contains other markups tag like some paragraph. However, I don't manage to get the height of this div if some paragraphs inside of it have some margin defined, even when using outerHeight(true)...

I occasionally need to set a negative margin on objects for positioning but 1.6.x ignores the declarations. This use to work fine with earlier versions. Has this issue been addressed? I tried all the combinations I could think of and the setting is ignored if a value is negative. (did not find a problem reference when setting a negative value in the forums)
$(objRef).css(marginLeft, "-20px");
$(objRef).css("margin-left", "-20px");
$(objRef).css(margin, "0px 0px 0px -20px");

I'm using a script for a drop down panel and it works fine, however I need to add a bit of a margin for the inner content but the script seems to be stripping it out in firefox, it works fine in ie and chrome. I've tried every trick in the book outside of editing the actual js file. I currently have a transparent image as a spacer at the top and it even ignores that. It seems that firefox just wont display anything above the first form field for some reason. Could someone take a look at this script quick and give me an idea on what to change to I can add like a 5px margin to the top of the content?

My code works great except that the margin and padding CSS isn't doing anything. Which doesn't make sense to me because the font size, style, and alignment is affected by the CSS. Does anyone know why this is??

I already have most of the code to successfully float my sidebar and make it follow your scrollbar.The problem I have however, is that there is a small margin between the sidebar and the footer when the scrollbar reaches its end.How do I correct this little margin? Nothing, that important but I do want to fix it badly.

When it is clicked, a div with a phone number slides in from the right (pushing the image of the phone left with it). When the image of the phone is clicked again, it slides to the right and is no longer visible again.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAll expanding textarea plugins I've seen always insert an additional line at the very end. This signals the user that more text can be typed since there is more space (such as [URL]). But can anyone direct me to an expanding textarea plugin which doesn't add an extra space at the bottom? I want it to grow only to the exact number of lines which have been typed.

I'm trying to play around with overflow: hidden and javascript. My idea is to have a button that will add or subtract margin-left from a div onclick.
Code:
<div style="overflow: hidden; width: 500px;"><!-- container div -->
<div id="idofthediv" style="width: 1000px; margin-left: -250px;"><!-- centered div inside the container -->
!!stuff inside the centered div with the negative margin-left so it starts outside the container!!

but not beyond, 50px at a time, for example">
I recently wrote this slider function which automatically detects margin-top CSS values, then offsets the desired div, then simultaneously slides and fades the div in using jQuery's animate() function. It seems to work well with only one div. However if I set it up to slide multiple divs, I am having an issue I cannot figure out.
First, here's the example...[url]
You will have to few the example in Safari or Firefox as I have disabled the javascript in IE using conditional comments. You can view source to see my HTML, CSS, and Javascript.
My issue is this. The #header div slides in great. After a set delay, the #about div slides in. I want each div to slide in separately, one after another. However, when the #about div slides in, it seems to affect the #header element. When the #about div is in motion, I do not want the #header element to move.
I have successfully implemented the Datepicker plugin but am having very difficult problems with the image alignment of the calender icon.
The icon seems to have no padding/margin/spacing between the input box and the image, and is also not aligned correctly.
I have viewed the documentation but can see no reference on how formatting is achieved.. I looked at jquery-ui css (redmond) and can see no reference to how this is aligned.

Adjust the CSS margins of the BODY element with the first slider. The yellow P (paragraph) element resizes to fit its smaller containing block, as I would expect.
Then, adjust the CSS border or padding of the BODY element with the second and third sliders. The P element does not resize, though its origin changes. Instead, it overflows its containing block.
Finally, adjust the margins again. The P element snaps back into its containing block.
As you can see from the source, this is jQuery 1.6.4 and jQueryUI 1.8 pulled from googleapis.com.
