CSS

I have attached a ZIP of my site.

I have used CSS to create it because I was having trouble with the way browsers were showing my tables. For the most part it is a god sent and much easier to work with I find.

However, I have been designing web pages for about 2 weeks total and am therefore very new to this.

I have my pages setup in DIV's. It's hiarchy looks like this:

Code:

Page:
   Banner

   NavBar:
        SubMenu: Menus expand & contract

   Content:  Contains an overflow-y:auto;
         Main:    This is where the content goes
         RightMargin:     This is where added comments go.

NOTE: The only menu options that are linked are Home & Understand Progessiv Tax (which is in the submenu of Learning Centre).

WELL: My problem is with the Main & RightMargin borders. I have assigned a right border to Main and a left border to RightMargin, this way if either of them are longer than the content DIV the border extends all the way down.

It works beautifully (I think). But, I wanted to add text-align:justify to my Main DIV and when I do... The Index page fine but the Progressive Tax page's Main DIV expands to the right 4px.

I would like to know why this is happening. As well if it can be fixed. If not I can live with alignment of left but I would prefer justified.

Anyone that thinks they can help, Please DL my ZIP file and test.

Thanks
Zinc.

Hi Zinc,

Is this site online? If so, will you post a link, I think you'll find it's easier to get help if a download isn't involved.

Cheers,

it is now but it isn't done.

I think I have solved the problem but verification would be great... And I have a new problem.

First,

If you goto http://www.rsptime.ca > Learning Centre > Understanding Progressive Tax

This is where the borders weren't aligned. It was to the right of the content and to the left of the right margin Bar.

Second, (New problem)

If you goto http://www.rsptime.ca > Learning Centre > Understanding Progressive Tax

There is a box on the right side of the page to calculate income taxes. In IE it works like I want. In Opera it calculates the tax but the textarea box doesn't expand like it does in IE. In Mozilla/FireFox it doesn't work at all. If you could check this out that would be great. P.S. You have to Click Calculate tax, I don't know how to make it work when you just hit enter.
