Hello,
I am having a lot of problems figuring out layout in CSS. There are a
couple of problems that I am facing:
1. My layout requires me to have 3 sections at the top of the page. So
I broke these up into three divs each with float: left. But when I
reduce the width of the browser each of these div wrap under the
other. I thought putting overflow:hidden would help but it doesnt seem
to. Can someone please help here.
2. I put all the contents of my page in one big DIV tag and centered
it. The third section of the header, which is a login form is also
constructed using CSS floats instead of a table. This form, displays
correctly in IE 6 but looks horrible in Mozilla Firefox. Can someone
please point out where I going wrong.
3. Am I approaching my layour problem in the right manner? Is there a
better solution?
Thank You
Here is my html code:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<body>
<div id="allContent">
<div id="header">
<div id="topLeftAd">
<span class="default-pos">
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
data="flash/topLeftad.swf" width="168" height="100">
<param name="topLeftAd" value="flash/topLeftad.swf">
<img src="noflash.gif" width="683" height="198" alt="" />
</object>
</span>
<span class="default-pos">
<img src="images/songsixty.png" alt="SongSixty.com"
style="border:0px; clip: rect(10px 10px 10px 10px);" />
</span>
</div>
<div id="topRightLogin">
<div class="row">
<span class="floatLeft"><b>Login</b></span>
<span class="floatRight"><b><a href="#">Sign Up
Now!</a></b></span>
</div>
<div class="row">
<span class="floatLeft">Email ID:</span>
