<h1>s and display:block

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Sep 14.2005

hi all…

url 1:
[url]http://guey.el.net/k/tests/0905/[/url]

the <h1>s are where it says “eat out”. i don’t understand why they are not aligning all the way up to the “col”s top border if there is no margin and padding specified..

url 2:
[url]http://guey.el.net/k/tests/0905/2.html[/url]

here nav is width:600px and it’s supposed to be display: block; but the first col is not being positioned under the nav.
from the css2 reference at w3schools.com i get:
“display: block – The element will be displayed as a block-level element, with a line break before and after the element.”
but it doesn’t work here. why?

can anybody explain please….

thanks..

  • 1. Hx elements have different margin properties in each browser. It is advisable to set the margin in CSS.h1 {margin:0;}

  • 2. #col has a margin set. Set the top margin to zero.


    • btw id's must be unique, use class for col.

    z-index should be unique. The browser will change the z-index if more than one element is given the same value.

    Avoid using hacks for IE, they could cause [URL=http://www.quirksmode.org/blog/archives/2005/09/css_hacks_are_s_1.html]problems[/URL] when IE7 is released. If you need to make adjustments for IE use [URL=http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/dhtml/overview/ccomment_ovw.asp]conditional comments[/URL]

    You are mixing XHTML with HTML. The sensible option is HTML strict.
