Default border not repeating on one side - 04-01-2009 , 12:32 AM






Ive been trying to get a border to repeat down the left and right side of
the page, but it is only working on one side.

Ive tried all sorts of layouts with this page, the designer came up with
rounded corners, borders on all sides, and a bottom aligned background image
that has been a hair-pulling combination to say the least.

Im sure I could have done the page more standards efficiently, but after
about 5 remakes to get it all to gel together, who knows what Ive ended up
with.

Ive used an image in the right and left cells, and a bg image if it
stretches - this works on the right, but not left - any ideas?

Hi Fiona , I am no expert u might want to wait for someone who really knows
their stuff but it seems to me that your left and right images might need to be
longer, ie tbl>tbody>tr>td.borderrt>image. Not sure if this would help but i
hope it does.

It is very simple buddy

This is what your image look like if you will zoom this

What you need to do is to remove the pink border and your problem will be
solved

I probably should have mentioned, that it happens on the linked pages, not
the index.html
page, as it shouldnt be any longer than the image in the table cell.

eg.
www.visionprint.com.au/whitetulip/consultation.html

The cell in which you want to have that border contains the border image NOT
as a background image, but as a foreground image. That's the wrong way to do
it since that image will not stretch vertically as the table expands.

Try adding that image as a background image to the '.borderit' class.

Oops - that would be the '.borderrt' and the '.borderlt' class.

Hi Murray (and anyone else reading),

There is a class set for the repeating background image - .borderlt, as well
as the image in the table - the reason for that being, to make sure the cell
was held open.

I have played around with it for hours, and I can either get the td on the
left to repeat properly, or the td on the right to repeat properly, but cant
seem to get both to work at once.
I just cant figure it out.

..borderlt {
background-color: #FFFFFF;
background-image: url(images/lt_borderex.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
}
..borderrt {
background-color: #FFFFFF;
background-image: url(images/rt_borderex.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
}
Regards
Fiona

Here's your problem -

#
/* mac hide \*/
#
* html #content {
height:580px}
#
/* end hide */

What is that doing there? And why do you have the unescaped "#" characters?
Remove it.

Big smile and hugs going your way Murray,......

I copied that code from somewhere to make sure IE5 and 6 rendered min-height
correctly and the mac part was in it and I didnt think to remove the '#' -
'duh!"
