Re: [WSG] Staring at the CSS with bloodshot eyes
God afton Georg; Well, nice to see a fellow Scandinav (I'm born and raised Swede) on this list, even though I'm in diaspora in the USA since six+ years. Thanks for the suggestion :) now I just have to figure out why that is working LOL The display table did the trick for Mozilla and Opera on PC, however, on Mac it's till pretty messed up, the whole first wrapper is placed to the right of the nav on top, making the page double wide in Mac IE 5. I do not know why this is happening on the Mac, and I was wondering if it may look the same in Safari and more recent Mac browsers. -- Original Message -- Reply-To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Date: Fri, 27 Jan 2006 13:45:06 +0100 Try adding: #content #wrapper {display: table;} ...or #content #wrapper {overflow: hidden;} ...to make that container expand to hold content - and stretch its own background (which is what you want, I think). regards Georg -- http://www.gunlaug.no Sent via the WebMail system at vikberg.net ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **

You may try any of the containing floats solutions linked in here: http://www.gunlaug.no/contents/wd_example_01.html ...but IE/Mac is locked out from some of my own solutions. The following is still not tested well enough to be called safe, but does work in later IE/Mac: http://www.gunlaug.no/contents/wd_example_01_06.html Time to get some more sleep, me thinks ;-) regards Georg -- http://www.gunlaug.no ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **

Hey Veine Unfortunately, without being able to see it, it means as little to us as it does to you! A link to the site/page in question would be useful.

http://www.jpfco.com/testdesign/new/ been one of those days I'm afraid ;) -- Original Message -- From: Veine Vikberg [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Date: Thu, 26 Jan 2006 18:55:05 -0500 Trying to understand where I have gone sooo wrong This looks ok in IE (surprise eh?) however Mozilla, Opera and Mac IE 5.1 / OS8.6 it breaks and looks awful. I have now stripped the css to the bare minimum for requirements and uploaded a fresh copy of it, it validates but it doesn't mean anything.
