Hi there,
I'm trying to build a pyramid that's made of 4 DIVs. The
layout looks like this:
------
| #1 |
------
----------------
| #2 | #3 | #4 |
----------------
Moreover I need 3 additional DIVs starting at the center DIV (#3) and containing either #1, #2 or #3 additionally. These DIVs are used the build a sliding effect with jQueryUI later on.
It's supposed to look like #1, #2 and #4 slide out of #3.
The margin between the DIVs is supposed to be 2 pixels. I also want the whole block to be centered.
Even with display: inline; and position: absolute; enabled on the visible and invisible DIVs I can't get the
layout right. I used some negative margins and when it looked ok for the first time I saw that my top DIV was positioned outside of the html body.
I suppose there is a more simple and elegant way to achieve what I want.
Thanks in advance
Sebastian
Here's what I've got so far:
HTML:
<div id="centerbox">
<div id="main">main</div>
<div id="rail_top">
<div id="top">top</div>
</div>
<div id="rail_left">
<div id="left">left</div>
</div>
<div id="rail_right">
<div id="right">right</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
#centerbox {
height: 602px;
width: 904px;
margin-top: 640px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
/* blue */
#main {
background-color: #33F;
height: 300px;
width: 300px;
margin: 2px;
z-index: 9999;
position: absolute;
display: inline;
margin-left: 302px;
}
/* green */
#top {
background-color: #3F0;
height: 300px;
width: 300px;
z-index: 1;
position: absolute;
display: inline;
}
/* pink */
#left {
background-color: #F06;
height: 300px;
width: 300px;
z-index: 1;
}
/* orange */
#right {
background-color: #FC0;
height: 300px;
width: 300px;
z-index: 1;
margin-left: 302px;
}
#rail_top {
height: 602px;
width: 300px;
display: inline;
position: absolute;
margin-top: -300px;
margin-left: 302px;
}
#rail_left {
height: 300px;
width: 602px;
float: left;
position: absolute;
display: inline;
margin-top: 2px;
}
#rail_right {
height: 300px;
width: 602px;
float: right;
position: absolute;
display: inline;
margin-left: 302px;
margin-top: 2px;
}
