I assume you mean in IE, but you didn't say so. if the container the float resides in is given a width or height, it will aquire layout in IE and will then contain any float. To prevent this, you need to avoid giving that container layout, which means not using a width or height.

I was definitely designing for users - I also checked the effects on userdefined text sixes in the three different browses I have available. However - Missed the zoom in 1280 in Firefox. The layout should be flexible, but how come the text drops out of the wrapper?? I really am trying to design for users, everything else would be silly.

...is tested, and working as you want in IE6, Opera, Safari and Firefox.
Those negative margin-bottom on floating images make it possible to hang
them over the edge in IE/win - regardless of its layout-mess.
Position: relative and a suitable z-index makes the right image visible
all the way.

[css-d] CSS Rendering in Flock
Dear All: I've just installed Flock 0.49[4], a browser which is based off Firefox[5]. It implements it's various features fairly slickly, but I really wanted to see whether there were significant rendering differences between Flock and Firefox. I've created some screenshots of the Acid 2 test - here is Firefox [1], and Flock[2]. As you can see, there is a small ~2px gap in FF, which does not appear in Flock. Furthermore, a quick check on one of my recent sites, shows a problem on this page[3]. The background image, sticks to the top of the viewport, rather than moving down, as Firefox does. I noticed this in Opera as well. I'm sure these are merely differences in which stable version of FF Flock is based off - I don't know if any of the Flock developers are on this list - John Hicks? - but I haven't been able to find this information. From the Flock FAQ: We are building on top of the Mozilla platform, which we believe to be a very secure foundation. This is about all the information I have been able to find. Anymore ideas, any more ways to perform tests? Should we not be worried about a preview release browser? I hope this is not too off-topic. Thanks - I look forward to the responses. Rahul.

Re: [css-d] background color warnings
Don't sweat the questions as they're good ones.
The warnings about colors there are simply warnings as you already know.
They're simply saying, 'hey, you're only setting {colour/background
colour}. If you
inhereit the {background colour/colour} from an ancestor and it's the
SAME colour,
or simply a hideously contrasting one, things will go snafu.
So it's just a way of getting you to think about your design scheme.
The selectors you mention are different:
div#summary p
#summary p
p#summary
The first is: a p within a div with the id of summary.
The second is: a p within anything with an id of summary.
The last is any p with an id of summary.
Since both p and div are block level, I leave it up to you to think about
why Eric Meyer wouldn't bother with an extraneous div tag.

Any tips for fixing the following would be most handy: On the index page: 1. I cannot get a flash movie to position correctly on the horizontal in Firefox which is positioned as a list item within a 'expanding 'menu' box' (similar to [TheManInBlue]) within a (white) box within an elastic central container section. Only the (white) box and the expanding 'menu' box has padding. 2. The scrollbar in the small lower scrolling box does not work in Firefox unless you nudge it up with the top arrow then move the bar down. On other pages: 3. I cannot get Eric's 'box-punch' cut-outs which house the icon for external/internal links to position correctly on the vertical in Firefox. I've included them as classes within un-ordered list items on most pages. In the My blog section (in My sources area - see jar menu): 4. I cannot get the positioningiseverything geckofix layout to work with the 456 BereaSt flexible custom corners in IE. I'd also like to fix the horizontal menu to the right hand side of the screen.

[css-d] Strange line appearing in IE6
All:
I have a line (a graphic) that appears in IE6.0, at a site I'm
developing at:
http://dsctest.com/test2/index.php
The CSS file is at:
http://dsctest.com/test2/style.css
There is a background image (http://dsctest.com/test2/images/
menu_bckgnd-1.gif) which seems to be leaking below the menus. I've
tried whatever I can think of, such as changing the background image
size and {background-repeat: repeat-y} to no avail. It all looks OK
in Safari 2.0.
Is this an example of the infamous box problem? Should I be defining
the height better?
I suspect this is a newbie question, so please don't beat me up too
much if that's so as this is only my second CSS project.

You just defined it on the wrong element.
Look for the element with margins, that is pushing the container-width
from the inside in IE/win...
Setting this:
#contact {display: inline;}
...will fix the margin-doubling bug in IE/win.
Safari and IE/Mac is OK BTW.

Re: [css-d] CSS Rendering in Flock
From the Flock FAQ: We are building on top of the Mozilla platform, which we believe to be a very secure foundation. This is about all the information I have been able to find. Anymore ideas, any more ways to perform tests? Should we not be worried about a preview release browser? I've been testing Flock too. It's almost identical to Mozilla as of now, but there is some concern among developers and users that Flock might not keep up with the latest versions of Mozilla. I'm almost expecting it. I think the best indication of what the Flock team will do will come after FF 1.5 is released. If they do care, they will update Flock to match FF 1.5... if they don't, then I'll be concerned. As of now it looks like the Flock team are not standardistas, I hope they are. -- -- C Montoya rdpdesign.com ... liquid.rdpdesign.com ... montoya.rdpdesign.com __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
[css-d] Auto Positioning
I'm working on a new entirely CSS-based design, and I'm having a problem with the footer. I have it positioned at the bottom of the page, of course, and right above it are the content and sidebar divs, whenever content overflows from the content div it overlays the footer making a really ugly-looking strip on the page where two layers of text are fighting for visibility. A pic of this happening is at http://ambit-online.net/images/overflow.jpg. I need to be able to have the footer's position change automatically depending on if content from the content div overflows or not. -- Ryan __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

[css-d] fixing backgrounds
Made an index.html with some beautiful pictures. Got the idea from Eric Meyer, chapter 12 of his first book from Eric Meyer on CSS, I hope a lot of them will follow. The power of a fixed background worked perfect in safari and IE5/Mac. When i opened it in IE6 on windows one picture was partly on a black background of the body the other was placed in the content part but not overlapping the other. In the content part the picture was also placed relative to the border on the content part. Hope this makes the problem clear, I am definitely a newbie in this field so bare with me. Does IE6 on windows need a css hack, could not find one?? Or can someone direct me in a direction??

[css-d] css problem with margin between header and content - take a look please
http://www.controlledairsystems.com/test2/indexb.php I have done this site in several iterations but none really works the way I want. Right now I am very close but there is this big chasm between the lower brown bar and the navagation and content section. Might as well be a glacial chasm. I have tried everything to close the gap but just can't seem to find a way. I would settle the navagation to the bottom brown bar and the beige bar white. I could them put more text on top of the header picture and all would work. I tried a background in the header instead of two pictures (still have one and that helped but now I can't seem to move the navigation up without weird things happening. As you can see in IE there is an extra line. This color is coming from the header background - how do I get rid of this Changing the header background causes other issues. How do I get the navagation to move up to the lower brown line without breaking up. To those who gave suggestions to my last iteration. Thank you very much. Things did not work out - other things separated. Carol F.

[css-d] Suckerfish blues (again)
I have implemented a suckerfish menu for a redesign of a game site. However every implementation I come up with works fine in FF and Opera8, but fails in IE6 (only tested on Windows). I also used the block image code which I was having trouble with last week (thanks for the help). The test site is here: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/graham.reeds/space and the css is here http://homepage.ntlworld.com/graham.reeds/space/styles/space_styles.css Originally I grouped all the menu images into one. This partially worked, but had problems with the items being differing heights: The items were between 13 and 21 pixels in size but the items were only partially selectable because the text doesn't fill it entirely. So I then thought about adding a top and bottom li for the menu border and making all the items in between the same size. However this causes the top (and the bottom) image to be drawn in correctly due to IE deciding that the size you want it be cannot be any smaller than the font-size (in this case around 10px). Add font-size: 5px to the top list-item and a similar one to the bottom and it starts to render correctly in IE, FF and O8. Now I am happy that it is rendering correctly, but am unhappy about the hack. Why does it do this and is there a cleaner work around? Also I have noticed that it is very slow updating when I am checking the site when hosted on my homepage. Does anyone else see this sluggishness in IE6? Any ideas on that as well?

[css-d] Rounded corners - rounding errors in IE
I'm working on a site in which various sections will have different
background colors on body with content boxes having white
backgrounds. These boxes are to have rounded corners, will be various
sizes (both fixed and fluid, static and floated), and some will have
content which should be 100% of the box height. Fortunately, the boxes
do not have borders.
Because of the colour changes, I'd like to achieve the roundy corners
with as few images as possible, ideally with one image such as
http://www.dramatic.co.nz/testing/corner_green.png
I want the images to be css backgrounds only for consistent results
with styling off.
So far I've been using a floated element at top right and absolute
positioning for the two bottom corners (the full height content
requirement). This is working well in everything tried on Windows
except for IE, which is suffering from random 1px errors.
e.g. on one box the bottom right image might be 1px too high, on
another it might be at the correct height but 1px too far left. My
fluid element seems to be working fine.
Does anyone know of a method which avoids these errors? I wouldn't
have thought there was a lot of calculation involved with fixed size
elements.

Thanks for looking at this. Adding width to the links didn't change the spacing, but it didn't seem to fix the problem - I'm still seeing the weird borders on refresh. Any other thoughts as to why this might be happening or how it could be fixed? Kara, I somewhat managed to reproduce the problem locally (after refreshing the cache a couple of times, reloading, refreshing ... and opening several instances of IE6). The problem is that we cannot identify a trigger locally that might cause the bug after several refreshes only. The good news is that the color of the 2px dotted border is not changing, so you could safely ignore this !important on the border color. The bad news is that the problem affects the space between the border dots. I have changed the colors of the logo.gif and the colors and widths in the CSS for contrast (gray dots, black background). Screenshot: http://www.satzansatz.de/cssd/bizarre/kara5.png In line 1 and 3 there are colored pixel filling the space between the gray dots. Note that these are parts of different transparent gifs you are using on the page. In the first line, there are some green spots, and the third line there are parts of the logo.gif (to the left) and from the headline.gif (to the right). How bizarre. Here, I have used a couple of lines this way to simulate a screen: http://www.satzansatz.de/cssd/bizarre/bizarrebug.html Screenshot: http://www.satzansatz.de/cssd/bizarre/bizarre.png (http://www.satzansatz.de/cssd/bizarre/bizarre.jpg) A list entry with a dotted border-bottom and a transparent background-gif and padding-bottom seems to be all what is needed to mirror the video memory between the dots? Is this a variant of the creeping text bug [1]? Strange one.

Be sure the containing div is not static. The containing div should

[css-d] left margin on styled list in IE
Hi folks, I've got a chunk of page that renders as I expect in firefox, but shows a big offset in ie. I can't seem to find where it's coming from. The page is at http://dsdd.org/vorivore-cart-down-mock.html In the cart at top, the short descriptions (class=desc) should be about 18 pixels from the left border, and indeed in firefox they are. Internet explorer is shifting the whole works right by some 50 or 60 pixels. It's even overflowing the cart borders. A further problem, but one that has little to do with css, is that the DHTML cart show/hide fails horribly on IE.
