Re: [WSG] Draggable Items
I've also seen this done nicely at http://panic.com I'm no javascript expert, so I couldn't explain what they did. Just check their source..

Re: [WSG] CSS validator says [xX][mM][lL] is not allowed.
It may have something to do with the PHP echoing the prologdo you have a special circumstance setup, like it only sends the prolog to mozilla or something? I think the validator is receving something that the browsers aren't. Also, I just checked in IE5/mac, safari, and FF/mac. Everything is perfect, aside from the double borders on the bottom of the you are here link for each page. They are all black in Safari and IE/mac, but really its nothing I would worry about.

Re: [WSG] Css Floating Image
Hi MM,
I tested your page in safari quickly...The image is floating
correctly. Is the image being taller than the text messing your
problem?
There are many techniques to clearing your floats so that they won't
overflow like that. The simplest of which:
applying overflow: auto to the #wrapper rule.
Here are some links:

Hope this helps. If I'm getting at the wrong problem, write back with
a screenshot link or something...

I am having problems floating an image in a div cell using css.
I want to have the whole page centered and static width. Then styling on
the wrapper div, with the image floating so that text will line up next to

See the code below, its the whole page with css.
Thanks in advance.

Re: [WSG] Strange problem
Alright, I tested it in IE5/Mac, Safari, Firefox and Opera and they
all turned up content.
Seeing as she doesn't know what system she's on, I'd very much doubt
she's running anything besides Mac or PC. Linux users tend to know
they are running linux :-)
It could have to do with this bit of CSS:
#leftcolumn { width : 350px; float : left; }
#rightcolumn { width : 350px; float : right;}
You don't need to float both items, just one or the other. I think in
some browsers (NN4 perhaps?) it just totally destroys that. It figures
if both items are floated there is nothing for them to float against.
Try experimenting with that snippet.

She just can't access your left frame when javascript is disabled.
In FF, choose Tools/Options/Content/, and disable JavaScript, to see.
I think this is a problem of your frame design.

Re: [WSG] I hope this is not off topic, W3c validation error
There is no 'alt' attribute for the a element. If you'd like to display information about the link, use the title attribute: lia href=http://asic.bc.cx/asic_history.php; title=ASIC historyASIC history/a/li The alt attribute is only (as far as I know) legal in img tags...The validator was right.

If it is, please reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am starting to get very fustrated. When I try to use the W3C validator for an HTML file, I keep getting the following error. Line 13, column 53: there is no attribute alt lia href=http://asic.bc.cx/asic_history.php; alt=ASIC historyASIC history/a/li You have used the attribute named above in your document, but the document type you are using does not support that attribute for this element. This error is often caused by incorrect use of the Strict document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the Transitional document type to get the target attribute), or by using vendor proprietary extensions such as marginheight (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the desired effect instead). This error may also result if the element itself is not supported in the document type you are using, as an undefined element will have no supported attributes; in this case, see the element-undefined error message for further information. How to fix: check the spelling and case of the element and attribute, (Remember XHTML is all lower-case) and/or check that they are both allowed in the chosen document type, and/or use CSS instead of this attribute.

[WSG] A different Firefox bug?
Hi, I've encountered a very odd behavior on my blog using firefox (mac). http://blog.jalenack.com If you focus the search box, or the any of the form elements in the comment section, a ~200x50 box appears at the top left corner. I have no idea why it happens, but it has been happening since I started my blog. When you scroll anywhere, it disappears. I have had other firefox mac users confirm this behavior, so it isn't just me. What should I do? Anyone come across this before? BTW, I'm sending as application/xhtml+xml for browsers that understand it. -- Jalenack.com ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **
Re: [WSG] Peoplesoft and standards
Hey, I have never personally used any Peoplesoft applications, but I can say this: A personal friend of mine is a Peoplesoft interface designer devloping web apps and uses dreamweaver as his only application in the development process (with accessibility features not on). I recently discussed some XHTML/CSS stuff and he was interested in using CSS, but said he had no experience of it. He seemed a bit apprehensive about learning to handcode. So I am doubtful that their web apps truly conform to 508 specs. Looking at the default framed, JS dependant, table ridden code I don't believe it. Maybe they pass the automated validator...I wouldn't be surprised if it were just another thing they added to the list of reasons for why you should buy their product.

Re: [WSG] Re: XHTML Strict alternative to ol start=11
Hey, I'm new here :-) In response to Geoff's email, XHTML is the web standard of the future. If we implement it now, we are just helping move it along faster. A friend of mine recently created a php script that makes your XHTML into HTML for browsers that cannot support it. You can check it out at http://blog.geoffers.uni.cc/archives/2005/01/07/xhtml-html . It sends application/xhtml+xml to browsers who can take it..and text/html to browsers that cannot. On transitional DTDs, they are meant to transitional, eh? So that you can blend your old methods into brand new ones without using invalid code. If you're going to use new methods only, there's no point of using a transitional DTD. XHTML was first introduced in 2000, and we're still transitioning. Ugg..

Re: [WSG] different hover for visited links than unvisited?
Yes, heres the code
a:visited:hover {

}
Not sure about its browser compatibility, but I've never seen it not work :p

I was first hoping it could be done by changing the standard order of

Has anybody found a way of getting this to work?
