Site Fixes

[benji_styler]

Hi!

Im currently working on ironing out some crinkles in my site.

Could anyone help with the following issues...

1.) Focusing on this section http://gfc.alphaclient.co.uk/acatalo...-by-style.html i have my products displaying correctly in the sub sections apart from this section http://gfc.alphaclient.co.uk/acatalo...ure-range.html im not quite sure why it isnt displaying correctly like the other sub sections.

2.) I need to top align the the sub sections so the green box with the intro text is always at the top. is the best way to do this to wrap it in a div and align it to the top? Im still learning how actinic works. I mainly develop in Dreamweaver and im fairly new to actinic's code layout...

Any help would be greatly appriciated in working to an ever approaching deadline...

Hi,

im working through a few of my problems.

One which im really stuck on is here: http://gfc.alphaclient.co.uk/acatalo...ure-range.html

when i have a few products a gap appears at the top i have tried to fix this with vertical align but it doesnt seem to work...

the only quick-fix was to add a bottom margin however this didnt work on pages with more products. Any idea how i can fix this problem? its really bugging me!

thanks

Looks on first glance that the content in the center column is vertically aligned to the middle. If you are using a table layout, you probably need valign="top" added to the <td> tag instead.

I was feeling helpful and had a look for you and yes my thoughts were correct.

You have a <table> within a <div> within another <table> and the <td> tags or the <div> are not vertically aligned to be at the top.

You don't see this when you have more content as things squash up and cover this part up for you.

Hi leehack,

thanks for your response, iv got it working now! However i have another issue...

Im having a few more layout issues which i think are due to list values... i have tried adding valign="top" but im unsure where to add it. its probably due to tables within table...

Here's the issue:

This page the products links display fine ie no brown space at the top of each product link image - http://gfc.alphaclient.co.uk/acatalo...-by-style.html

However this page doesnt display correctly http://gfc.alphaclient.co.uk/acatalo...ure-range.html

How do i amend this so it is displayed like the product links on the first link...

Iv just been getting confused with all the different layouts and lists...

Can you see a similarity between what i mentioned above and the 2 examples you have showed in your new post? It's exactly the same principle. Get yourself Firefox and the firebug addon, you can then decipher things yourself and learn about it better. This is pure html problems, nothing to do with actinic.

Hi Leehack,

got it sorted now. I know my html, just been getting used to how actinic handles it. im used to dealing with the code head on - in dreamweaver! not moving up and down levels in actinic. Almost there now with my layout fixes.

Thanks for your help, it was appriciated.
