AW: [Cartoweb-users] exportLinkIt css

[Lauber Christoph]

Ciao Oliver

That is what is done by default in the plugin with top and left =0. When I change these two parameteres the output is on the bottom of my page. Here my modified css file:
#linkItBox {
  position: absolute;
  top: 50;
  left: 250;
  width: 820px;
  border: 1px solid #FF9900;
  background-color: #FFCF63;
  padding: 5px;
  z-index: 1000;
  margin:10px;
}

#linkItUrl {
  width: 800px;
  background-color: #FFFF00;
}

#linkItBox a {
  float:left;
}


Regards
Christoph

Hi Christoph
you need to set the positon absolut (and top/left/z-index) to the container, 
not the content,
in this case #linkItBox is the container

Hi Oliver

2) works fine. Thanks

1) I still got problems. Even if i specify a absolute position for the 
linkItUrl container i get the linkItBox either on the top left of the page 
or in the bottom left. Following my last try in linkIt.css
#linkItBox {
  width: 820px;
  border: 1px solid #FF9900;
  background-color: #FFCF63;
  padding: 5px;
  z-index: 1000;
  margin:10px;
}

#linkItUrl {
  position: absolute;
  top: 50;
  left: 250;
  z-index: 1100;
  width: 800px;
  background-color: #FFFF00;
}

#linkItBox a {
  float:left;
}
A side effect ist, that the linkItBox a (Link to close) is not displayed any 
more.

Any more hints for a solution?

Christoph

Hi Christoph

1) A quick solution is to set an absolut position to the url container (and
specfy a some greater than 10 z-index)
2) specify a fixed width for the url container

Oliver
