Having trouble setting dimensions of overlay

Posted: Aug 24, 2010

This may be a really dumb question, and I've worked quite a bit with jQuery Tools, but for the life of me, I don't know what I'm doing wrong trying to resize this overlay I'm working with. It continues to be the same width x height no matter what I change.

Is there some setting I need to change or should width and height be determined from CSS?

Hi Lyynk,

Try something like this in your CSS (just an example from my own project):


DIV.overlay {

	background-color:#35312F;
	PADDING-BOTTOM: 10px;
	PADDING-LEFT: 10px;
	PADDING-RIGHT: 10px;
	PADDING-TOP: 10px;
	DISPLAY: none;
	overflow:visible;
	min-height:100;
	min-width:200;
	z-index:10000;
}

I use a minimum height and width for the overlay -- and then I set the contents of the page loaded into the overlay inside a table with a width of 600 px. The overlay takes its actual dimensions from the width & height of the table. (Oh, and I make the background colour of the table white #fffff, and it all ends up looking very nice.)

Good luck!
