Variable line lengths and weird stuff happening

[ecorrado]

This is starting to frustrate me.

 

Please look at this site in Firefox.

 

http://www.postmarkinternational.com

 

I have a floating line of text & graphics on the page. It looks OK in IE.

 

Also if you look at the other web pages of the site you will see that line length are uneven. I have tried to make them all the same but they are all over the place.

 

Is there a way of getting them all even. I should have probably originally created columns but this is the way I got them from Template monster.

 

I have tried numerous set line length which I have not uploaded but I always get the same thing.

Don't use position: fixed in a situation like this as it is literally fixed from the viewport top left corner, which means that when people use different resolutions and the page centers, the position: fixed div does not relate to them.

 

(IE7 does operate position: fixed slightly differently to Firefox.)

 

I edited these:-

#Layer2 {

position:absolute;/*fixed;*/

/*left:400px;

top:338px;*/

width:225px;

height:67px;

z-index:auto;

}

 

 

}

#Layer5 {

position:absolute; /*fixed;*/

/*left:320px;

top:335px;*/

width:225px;

height:75px;

z-index:0;

}

 

You might have to use top and left positions, but only for very small px.

Hi Wickham Thanks for your fast reply.

 

I think you have opened my eyes to a whole new world here.

 

I have moved the map & copy to where it is supposed to be but the other copy with the phone number is at the top.

Should I create another layer for that and do the same thing. If so how do I select that text and create a new layer from it.

 

Thanks

I didn't think about the phone number; leave the styles as I had them before and edit the html markup to change the top margin:-

 

 

class="fs style7 style9">

class="fs style24">Call us for a

It's all a bit complicated, but that seems to work.

I moved it and it seems to be OK.

 

Now any idea how I can keep all my column lengths the same length?

 

If you look at any of the pages you will see there all over the place. Also the corners are round on some and square on other. what a mess.
