Css风格不起作用

Question

this is my worksite - mysite i have created a page and called it to the home page using the following code

<div class="hilight-hometext">
<?php if(is_front_page()) :
$home_page_post_id = 308;
$home_page_post = get_post( $home_page_post_id, ARRAY_A );
$content_home = $home_page_post['post_content'];
$content_title = $home_page_post['post_title'];
?><?php
echo $content_home;
endif; ?></div>

and the result is

<div class="hilight-hometext">
<div id="hilightbox">
<div class="hilightbox-text">
<h2>At Salisbury we want everyone to understand their landscaping choices</h2>

padding: 14px 14px;
text-decoration: none;
text-shadow: 1px 1px 0px #747728;

Answer 1

I think if you just add this:

#hilightbox {
  background: url(../img/action-bg.jpg);
  width: 100%;
  margin: 20px auto;
  overflow: hidden;
}

it will solve you problem. currently your container div #hilightbox does not know about child div's (.hilightbox-text and hilightbox-action) height & width because of float:left property.
