Re: [css-d] whatever:hover fast and easy via Dynamic Properties

2005-07-11 Thread Klaus Hartl


Neat. But then on this end ( XP_SP2)  IE6.0 'Security' setting at 
high. Now what I'll do?


Any JavaScript is turned off with security setting high. No difference 
if you use an behavior, these dynamic properties I mentioned or just a 
normal javascript file.


Therefore I recommend using whatever:hover for some nice and useful 
effects, for example highlighting form elements, table rows and so on, 
but not for anything critical. It just should degrade gracefully without 
javascript enabled.



Cheers, Klaus

Re: [css-d] whatever:hover fast and easy via Dynamic Properties

2005-07-11 Thread Klaus Hartl



IE/Win:
.whatever {
background-color: expression(this.runtimeStyle.backgroundColor,
this.onmouseover = function() { this.className += ' whateverhover'; },
this.onmouseout = function() { this.className =
this.className.replace('whateverhover', ''); });
}



Very nice! You can take this part out of the expression and it will 
still work: --this.runtimeStyle.backgroundColor,--


Did you leave that part in by accident or was there a purpose?


Hi Brett,

thanks for the tip! I did not leave that part in by accident - I just 
thought, if I leave out defining the background color somehow, I would 
overwrite the background from .whatever in the basic style sheet.


One can also use a totally unused property to assign the events, like:
.whatever {
zoom: expression(
this.onmouseover = function() { this.className += ' 
whateverhover'; },
this.onmouseout = function() { this.className = 
this.className.replace('whateverhover', ''); });

}

But this may have side effects in some cases. zoom for example 
triggers layout, which can have some effect on the rendering...



Regards, Klaus

[css-d] Trouble with list/link in IE

2005-07-11 Thread Sverre Bjørseth
Hi folks, I was wondering if someone out there could help med with
something thats been bothering me for 2 days now.

I´ve made a menu on my site using lists, and styling it using CSS. It
works perfectly in Fx and Opera, but in IE the list-items seems to be
double the height of whats intended.

The lists links are styled, and I´ve added display:block to the
a-element to make it easier for users to hover the links. This does
not work in IE, at least not until I specify the width of the
a-element. Only trouble is, if I set the width, other problems occur
in all three browsers, and breaks my zoom (or elastic or whatever its
called) layout.

You can see for yourself at http://bjoerseth.com/, and the stylsheet
can be found at http://bjoerseth.com/stilark.css.

Anyone have a clue?

Thanks in advance,

[css-d] A Little Firefox Firefly

2005-07-11 Thread Hershel Robinson

When I load this page:

http://scarabbooks.com/index.php
CSS: http://scarabbooks.com/main.css

into Firefox, it loads with the footer text This site is protected 
by... right on top of the image 'Passing Time in the Loo.'


When I refresh, then the footer goes to the bottom, where it belongs. I 
presume this is because now Firefox knows how big the graphics are. What 
is the recommended method to avoid this problem when the page first loads?

From a very quick look, you have not made accommodations for IE's

[css-d] shorthand background:url(file.extension);

Hi list

When I use the shorthand
background: url(image.gif) fixed;

all browsers should expand it to
background: url(image.gif) 0% 0% fixed transparent;


In Mr. Zeldman's book (Designing with ...) I've seen an explicit

p {
background: transparent;

and I don't understand, why it could/should be important,
since this is the initial value anyway, and there is no
earlier declaration to overwrite. Prevention?


Every background information would be appreciated.

My guess it is a best practice thing: When you define a foreground,
you should also define a background. The CSS validator also moans
about omitting that.

1/ it is a recommended practice to set both background colour and 
foreground colour at the same time


2/  it could be for overriding a previous, or less specific rule.
p {background:lime;}
p.foo {background:transparent;}

etc.

[css-d] Print CSS Expandable Menu buggy

2005-07-11 Thread Craddock, Melissa
 
I am using a expanding menu based on
http://www.gazingus.org/html/menuExpandable.html
The menu uses li for the items. There is a very small amount of
javascript. 
I would like to have the menu print expanded even though it is collapsed
on the screen. 

When I first go to the page, I can click on print preview and see the
expanded menu even though it is collapsed on the screen. If I click on
one of the items on the screen to expand and click on it again to
collapse, that item will print collapsed. In my screen stylesheet I have
the class set to display: none;. In the print stylesheet the display
none is removed, yet it still doesn't print. I have been messing with
this for hours. Maybe a fresh set of eyes will see something I can't.
Your help is greatly appreciated. If this is not possible, any
suggestions of better ways of accomplishing this are welcome. :)

The problem is the images in your div#updates. They are loose in the

Greetings All!

I am currently implementing a news scroller using XHTML, CSS and 
JavaScript. I know this list is not the place for Javascript question, 
if anyone knows of a good place please let me know but, I would really 
appreciate it if someone can look at the following page:


www.volume4.com/pattersonpruden/index.html

The news scroller on the right hand side works fine in IE Window, not 
sure about other platforms but, in Firefox it is completely screwed up. 
Not sure if this is solely caused by the JavaScript or if there might be 
some of the CSS that is part of the problem.


Thank you in advance.

I dont't think that this is possible. You'll need some more JS to get
a newsscroller working. But why don't you use one of the many
newsscrollers freely available and modify it, to get the news-text
from a ul wrapped in a noscript? I think that would degrade very
pleasently ;), but has nothing to do with css as long as you don't
style it...

That wouldn't be hard to do. You need JavaScript in any case, as it is
behaviour what you are talking about.

The logic is easy: You crop the section you want to see and change the
position of it every x milliseconds. However, who benefits from a
scroller like this? Is it really needed or annoying DHTML fun from the
end 90ies?

I did a small test there: This one only applies the styles when JS is
available and also allows the visitor to stop the scroll.
http://icant.co.uk/sandbox/newsscroller/

You can set the start and end positions, and the speed.

Not ENTIRELY correctly :-) In my experience it sometimes 
mis-calculates borders on nested elements that ordinarily should not 
affect their parent's ability to float. And dropping a float, in and 
of itself, means the W3C box model is not being followed, no?

Depending on the monitor frequency, lines like yours can flicker as
the screen is built up from left to right and top to bottom. Wider
lines or less contrast make that effect less annoying.
Nothing wrong with the CSS, the image is just the issue, and possibly
and accessibility problem, too.

Hi,

Can someone let me know if I am going mad or not.



IEwin has some (cough) problems with #id.class combinations.

#content #article.slim {

#content #article.aus {
background:red;
...
}

this
div id=article class=aus.../div

shows no red, because

the parser (or whatever is sitting infront of the other bugs) reads and

matches #content, matches #article and fails on .slim

well, so we think #article is unique? and it failed? why looking once 
again at it?


http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=MultipleClasses

in conclusion, you can define
div id=article class=aus a1 b2 c3.../div

and so on, and it will work, as long as you don't combine them in one 
rule like

#article b2
or
.a1 .b2

because that breaks any specifity and will match any occurence of .b2


and so on

Re: [css-d] Print CSS Expandable Menu buggy

 When I first go to the page, I can click on print preview and see the
 expanded menu even though it is collapsed on the screen. If I click on
 one of the items on the screen to expand and click on it again to
 collapse, that item will print collapsed. In my screen stylesheet I have
 the class set to display: none;. In the print stylesheet the display
 none is removed, yet it still doesn't print. 

I guess it's because the menu JS
http://www.gazingus.org/js/menuExpandable3.js (?) sets the element's
style.display.block properties to none to hide them then you click
... this is hard to override in a print stylesheet as inline style
(which is what the DOM style property effectively manipulates) has a
high specificity
http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=SelectorSpecificity

You could try increasing the specificty of the print display rules by
adding !IMPORTANT or more specific selectors.

Ideally (IMO) we could rewrite the menu script to apply show and
hide classes to the elements and then all you need do is override
show and hide in the print style sheet but I appreciate this is
harder.

PS: Google reveals a nice Brainjar article
http://www.brainjar.com/css/using/default4.asp: that says

Inline Styles

Style properties defined inline, i.e., within an HTML tag's STYLE
attribute, are given the same weight that an ID selector would have.
In terms of order, they are treated as though they occur after all
other rules.

In other words, inline styles take precedence over anything but a
conflicting declaration in a user style sheet.

The menu uses li for the items. There is a very small amount of 
javascript.  I would like to have the menu print expanded even though it 
is collapsed on the screen.


In addition to the problems and solutions already mentioned, I note that in 
three places-- CSS, JS and HTML-- you are setting the background image for 
the LI you use; I would question whether that duplication is necessary; I 
think its a hangover from your testing. Also, an alternative to using a 
background image, is to use list-style-image, details @ 
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/generate.html#propdef-list-style-image. (Which 
may not be widely supported by a sufficient number of browsers? Or maybe it 
is. See http://nanobox.chipx86.com/browser_support.php)


However, as the image you show for the printed output of FF shows, you are 
getting repeated instances of the background image on the printout, because 
in your JS (and in the in-line style used in the HTML), you do not restate 
what the CSS shows, to wit no-repeat 0em 0.3em. Also, of course, it is 
not necessary to say 0em, as 0 can be unitless in CSS.

Delete that clearing-div you have near the bottom. It's in the wrong
place and it isn't working in FF anyway.

Then add this:
#contentcontainer {display: table;}
...which will make FF (and other good browsers) expand the container and

Re: [css-d] problems with background image flickering on scroll

2005-07-11 Thread Guillaume

Hi there,
It's flickering for me here on FF mac, laptop...
did you meet this problem especially on Firefox... I'm asking this 
because i experienced similar situation with fixed elements
covering big size images... In fact the more i design with it the more i 
think the Gecko layout engine is poor, has difficulties
to paint, or in your case repaint the background, on screen when the 
content is scrolled. As Bruce mentioned you  should
probably change your background... I've seeen more pattern based on 
diagonals than horizontal lines...
Or maybie try a background-attachment: no-scroll, that will stop your 
bgnd moving up and down and should resolve the flicker.

Good luck.
Guilllaume.


Hi Bruce,

I'm not sure if it's the CSS causing the problem.  It may be the space
between the lines.  The gap is very narrow, on my screen resolution
(1280 X 1024) the page hurts my eyes a bit, so maybe it is an optical
effect caused by scrolling the page.

Regards, Keith.

[css-d] extra space around a table inside a div

2005-07-11 Thread Anthony Morales

Hi y'all,

I've come across a most vexing problem I hope y'all have seen before.  
I've got a div wrapped around a table. I'd like the table to run up  
the borders of the div so it looks like there's a border on the  
table, but I'll be adding more content inside this border so I'd  
rather place the border on the parent div.


The div has padding applied for anything else that isn't a table. To  
get the table to stretch out to fill the entire div I tried negative  
margins. The table won't expand completely once there is any padding  
on the parent div. Negative margins or no. It would be nice to use  
child selectors but I have to support IE. I can't add margins to  
every child to fake the padding or I risk making the CSS more  
complicated than necessary.


Anybody have any ideas? or can you explain why the table won't expand  
to 100%?


thanks,
ant

here's the code I'm using:

 .rbox {
margin-bottom: 36px;
border: 1px solid #b3b3b3;
padding:8px 8px 12px 12px;
}
 .rbox table {
border: 0;
border-collapse: collapse;
clear: both;
margin:0 -8px 0 -12px;
padding:0;
position: relative;
width: 100%;
}

.rbox table tr {
border-bottom: 1px solid #d5d5d5;
}
.rbox td, .rbox th {
padding:7px 6px 6px 12px;
text-align: left;
}
.altrow {background-color:#eee;}


table
tr
thcolhead/th
tddatum/td
/tr
tr class=altrow

Re: [css-d] Trouble with list/link in IE

2005-07-11 Thread Sverre Bjørseth
Thanks a lot Paolo. IE doesn´t stop surprising me...
But, it is still not possible to place the cursor to the right of the
link text and achive the :hover-effect (This works in Fx and Opera,
but not in IE). Anyone knows how to do this without specifying the
width of the a-element? If I set the width of the a-element to 100%,
the width of the ul-element increases in IE, and the width of the
li-element increases in Fx and Opera. If I specify the width in px,
everything works great, but then it ruins my zoom/elastic layout...:(
I could set the width to 7.3em, but then it´s not very accurate to
specify widths in em.

like to display as a list in 2 or three collumns.
However, this list is constantly growing and changing, and i would like 
to be able to not force the break in the collumns but rather usee css to 
break up my list into 2 collums. Is there a way that you can write the 
css to start displayig in a new collumn after 100 li entries?

[css-d] IE browser resize problem

2005-07-11 Thread Gwyn Perry
OK,
I've joined this list after finally finding a problem that I couldn't
work out a practical solution. I'm sure this won't be the first time.

So here's my problem:
My page works fine in Gecko browsers, and *almost* fine in IE6. I
haven't tested in other browsers, as my client made it clear that it
wasn't a concern.

The problem only rears its annoying head when the window is resized by
the user. My navigation list, using the 'son of suckerfish' system,
doesn't change its position with the other elements on the page. Only
when you hover the mouse over the list does it snap back to its
correct position.

I guess it needs to be seen to be properly understood, so here's the
link to my test page:
http://www.gwynimation.com/test/
Just open it in explorer and mess with the window size. Look at the
navlist and the problem should be apparent imediately.

I suspect it has something to do with other CSS declarations that
don't play well with suckerfish, but I can't see which ones. I've done
a fair bit of searching, but if you put 'IE' and 'problem' into a
search engine, you tend to get an avalanche of varied results.

This isn't a deal breaker, just an annoyance.However it is something
the client has mentioned, so I'd like to solve it if I can. Any help
would be very much appreciated.
Thanks
Gwyn

I think you need to define a style for link, visited, hover and active in
that order for it all to work.  You may also need to include a DTD at the

Could I suggest that you get rid of all your tables for a start and stick
with one table if you are going to use them.  At a cursory glance you appear
to be using four tables some are nested and some aren't. Your page shows
that you could achieve this design with a single column using colspan tags
on your header and footer and then define your layouts using CSS.

  }
 
  I use the above CSS on a table, when you hover over the tr it changes the
  background to yellow, but the links inside it are not getting the color
  change to green that I am wanting, unless of course, you are right over the
  text, which I do not want.
 
  You need to apply display:block to the links to achieve that. (And
  possibly a width: 100%).
  That green is incredibly hard to read IMO.
 
 I don't get to pick the colors :-)
 How is adding display: block to the links, which are not even hovered over,
 going to do anything for me, it is the tr that is hovered, and when that
 happens, I want the color: to change.

It causes the link to occupy the whole of the td, which in turn
occupies the whole of the tr. In fact, with the links as blocks you
can probably set the hover style on a rather than tr, with the added
benefit that it will now work in IE. It may be necessary to define
height, width or padding to get the a's the way you like them.

Re: [css-d] Color change on row hover

 I think your background should be background-color:#FFD;
 
 I am not getting any change in background in either Firefox or IE or border.
 I think you need to define a style for link, visited, hover and active in
 that order for it all to work.  You may also need to include a DTD at the
 head of your document.

Hmm, right you are, does not work in FF, can someone maybe give me a example
of how to do this, start to finish, where you have a list of links,
vertical, and hovering anywhere in the row will highlight that row
background, and also toggle the link color of the text, even if it is not
100% as wide as the row.

 Could I suggest that you get rid of all your tables for a start and stick
 with one table if you are going to use them.  At a cursory glance you appear
 to be using four tables some are nested and some aren't. Your page shows
 that you could achieve this design with a single column using colspan tags
 on your header and footer and then define your layouts using CSS.
 
 Regards,

Sure, and I may do that later, this is just what I did now, to be fast, I am
not making a ton on this site, so I need to just get it done, even if I do
as you suggest...

As you can see http://www.click-brand.com/test.ws
I am still nailed with this white border around the table, and I need to

Ok, you need a quick fix:
img src=header0E.gif alt=Click-brand Logo width=725 height=85 
border=0 style=float: left; margin: -1px -1px 0 -1px; _margin: -1px 
-4px 0 -4px;

...should do just fine.

[css-d] Print stylesheet - cut pages off

2005-07-11 Thread Robert Neville
I just began developing the print stylesheet for the
site listed below and have encountered several
difficulties. These scenarios seem simple, yet my mind
has not resolved them. Damm mind blocks! So the page
remains fairly complex as far as the CSS.

My header div created a page break between it and the
content div.  The content does not break between page
break and only render a little more than a page. The
situation seems odd. 

Indeed browser's print engines are not keen on floats,
yet my last print stylesheet did not remove all the
floats. Changing all position fixed, absolute, float
to position static may help (yet I less familiar with
this attribute). In addition, the overflow attribute
may contribute to the scenario as well.  Let me know
if you have any ideas about these scenarios. Please
let your thoughts point to specific solutions rather
than focus on general rhetoric. As you all know, time
is a precious commodity and the information is vast. 

Could the JavaScript affect the print stylesheet?

Check out #ArticleID which has an additional border on
the left and right side.

You will possibly find that this hack fixes the problem for IE.  Place in
CSS file above the Navbar id.

/* Fix IE. Hide from IE Mac \*/
* html #navbar ul li { float: left; }
* html #navbar ul li a { height: 1%; }
/* End */



It is not necessary to float the lis, making a {height: 1%;} is enough.

Re: [css-d] limiting collumns

 I'll give that a shot... I wasnt aware that PHP would be the best

I did a similar implementation for my work's site (in ASP, but same
difference). I ended up breaking the lists up like this ALA page did,
because it worked pretty easily.
http://www.alistapart.com/articles/layeredfudge/

The loop I did was a little bit different, in that I had one for loop
to write each li, then an if statement in that loop that checked for
the middle li, closed the left ul, and opened the right ul. Before the
for loop, I opened the left ul and closed the right one after the for
loop.

There is a purely CSS way to break your list up using an li width of
50% of the ul or ol, but it's basically writing from left to right,
top to bottom, which confuses most people. If order matters, and I
assume that it does, stick with either a for loop or you can find a
few variations on the purely CSS method in the comments for the above
ALA article:
