Default Fix Jump Box Location In FireFox - 11-09-2005 , 09:11 AM






http://www.aaronsoutdoorproducts.com/aop.html

At the above site I have a jumpbox to the right of the navigation bar. In IE
the jumpbox is positioned exactly were I want it. But in FF it definately
isn't. If I manipulate the jumpbox's position it always changes it to an
undesirable position for both IE and FF. I figured I'd take the lesser of two
evils since the majority of the population uses IE.

Can someone view the source and see if there is anything I may have missed? I
know if there is someone here would hold the knowledge! Thanks in advance for
your time!

from what i can see in firefox it displays the 'go' button to the right of the
drop down box.
Is the problem that it is displayed right at the bottom of the background as
opposed to being centered vertical and horizontally.
There are a few factors that affect it. First relates to style sheets... You
need to make sure you have setup margins / padding for forms and input boxes in
your style sheet. Second you have laid the input boxes out in a paragraph tag,
try using a table to get exact positions.

Styles sheet setup will be the answer though i am pretty sure

IE does too, right? Or are you seeing the "go" button somewhere else in IE?

the go button is in the same position, to the right of the input box in IE...
The only problem is in firefox, where it is not vertically centred on the
background graphic.
And i believe this is solved by margins / padding in your style sheet...

I can't get it. I have manipulated all this stuff you are talking about. If
I increase the cell padding it throws of the nav bar and the background in the
jumpbox. If I remove the paragraph tag and keep it within "tr" tag it hugs the
topmost part of the cell.

Suggestions?

try removing the paragragh tag around the form / input boxes... <p>.....</p>

and add:

form {
margin:18px;
padding:0px;
}

to your styles

i am not talking about the cell padding, i was talking about seperate style sheets...
But remove the <p> tags and then set the cell to be vertically and horizontally centred
