err no.

you just apply margin to the ul's, p's and hx's that you put inside the box.

I've been avoiding horizontal padding since I discovered IE5's box model 
  so it's second nature to me to think in terms of no padding on a 
container (apart from 1px top padding to prevent margin collapse) and 
then margin anything inside it away from the sides.

but hey, position:relative is your friend...

I fixed the silly  thing, don't know how that happened...
Validates now, both the HTML and the CSS.

As for negative margins...  It's funny that it works in IE7 on all
borders, except the bottom one?  This makes me think this is a red
herring...

The reason why I do it is because then I'd have to have the .box (with
no padding) and then some bogus internal container (.inbox??) that has
some margin on it.  And it would have to be everywhere there is a box
(like all over the site), as every box has this padding.  Now, *that*
seems convoluted to me.

Not that it couldn't be done, but that seems like a ridiculous thing to
do, a complete overhaul of the site, for one browser.

Thanks for the reply,
Chris

Ah.

I googled and discovered that IE has a fixable bug in relation to 
content that overlaps a negative margin, which seems to be the case here...

apply position: relative; to the h5 and all will be okay.

hat tip:
http://www.communitymx.com/content/article.cfm?page=4&cid=B0029

IE will cut off the portion of an object that overflows its 
parent container due to negative margins. Luckily, there's a quick fix: 
apply position: relative to the float, and the cut off portion 
appears!

It's related to your convoluted use of negative margins to overcome 
padding on the box.

the fix is to remove padding from the .box and add margin to the 
elements inside the .box to give the same "space", then your h5 
background will fill the box and a little bit of padding on the h5 will 
space the text away from the edges.

IE7 is seeing bottom-margin: -6px as an instruction to bring the bottom 
edge of the h5 box 6px inside the box, rather than stretching the box 
6px bigger than needed for the text.

I'm not sure what *correct* behaviour should be, but maybe someone more 
enlightened will explain that.

I do know that I wouldn't have done it the way you did and I'm also 
curious about why the list of what's new ul is inside an h2 element 
(invalid construction AIUI)

I have made the adjustment you suggested. You can view the updated pages
with the links above. I still cannot figure out how to get the shadows to
the edsge where my red border is temporarily. I am tried adjusting margins
and padding, can't get anything to work.

Re: [css-d] Position links on Image bugs

2006-09-11 Thread Tim Kadlec

Eleanor,

Welcome to the list and welcome to the wonderful, exciting and never ever 
frustrating world of using CSS.


You were right. The problem did lie in the way you were doing the top 
navigation. I would recommend slightly modifying your html and css to make 
it a little easier on yourself.


Change the html to this:



Home
About
Gallery
History
For Collectors



Now we can set the image as a background for the nav division which makes 
the whole process a lot easier.


Now it is just a matter of editing your css. I have the lines I edited 
posted below, and comments explaining, albeit not all that clearly I am 
sure, why the change. Go ahead and experiment with different values to 
adjust margins and paddings and see the effects different lines have on your 
layout in IE and firefox, but as of now, the design should work for you in 
both browsers.


#nav {
margin: -8px -8px;  /* Currently, the way you have this, the margin is set 
to -8px on all sides */
margin-bottom: 0px; /* IE subtracts the -8px above from the height of div so 
we needed the bottom margin to be 0 */
background: url(nav.gif) no-repeat; /* background-image instead of actual 
image, easier to use, faster to load */
height: 145px; /* Height of your background-image to ensure that full image 
shows */

display: block;
width: 701px; /* Width to ensure that image is show entirely */
}
#nav1{
padding-top: 120px; /* Pushes your text down */
padding-left: 70px; /* Pushes your text to the right -- margins don't work 
here cuz of IE */

}
#body-container {background-color: #EFECD7;
margin: 15px 3px 10px; /* Here the top margin at 15px worked before but not 
anymore */
margin-top: 0px; /* So I changed it here to 0 to bring container flush with 
nav --- You can put this in the line above */
border-top: none; border-right: solid #BC901A 1px; border-left: solid 
#BC901A 1px; border-bottom: solid #BC901A 1px;

padding: 15px;}


Thanks,

Tim Kadlec

Hello,

This is my first post to this forum so let me say thank you for
taking the time to look at this.

I have decided to try and create a client website using CSS
positioning as the main layout and design. Of course the learning
curve is huge and I'm stuck. So here I am. I am having several issues
with different browsers. They all seem to stem from positioning text
on top of an image. Everything is working well in Safari and Firefox
on my mac. The problem arises in IE on both the mac and the pc
platform. IE in Mac is currently not displaying the links but if it
were they wouldn't work as links. IE Windows is not displaying the
links at all. I am currently working to resolve this and would
appreciate input on whether or not this positioning issue is
resolvable. Am I better off using roll over buttons?

Hi All,

Why do I keep having this problem with IE PC having an extra gap?

http://kt1.clarityconnect.net/cchy/index.html

I've checked it on FF, SeaMonkey, Opera on Win XP, and Safari, FF, 
and IE on the MAC OS X.  They're all fine, but in IE on Win XP, I 
have this gap between the menu buttons and the picture right above 
it.  Any ideas?

Much thanks.

Yes :-)

Add borders on the following elements and you'll see better

#outer_div{
height: 100%;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
width:58em;
border:1px solid lime
}

#shadow_container{
margin:0;
padding:0;
width:62em;
border:1px solid red
}

#shadow_container is much wider than #outerdiv. Things start to  
misalign from there.
Set the width of #shadow_container to 100%, and things look already  
much better.
There are other things you'll need to tweak, but you'll them once the  
above is fixed.

It 'works' in IE 6, because it is broken, and expands the width of  
boxes when the content is wider than the allocated width. Standard  
compliant browsers don't expand them (and IE 7 has fixed that bug).

Some other thing about your arbeidsliv page.
I noticed that @ first load and @ refresh the page has a latency time, 
and is jumping up and down (IE6 and FF1.07 and Opera8.01 under Win98SE), 
due to the javascript for the rounded corners. And I'm guessing: that 
happens too when going from one page in the site to another.
What about css styled corners/borders?
Because of the fixed width, the corners can be 2 simple background 
images (or combined to 1). Quick downloaded (once), no latency, no 
jumping, and working too if browsing with disabled javascript! :-)

Ah, and I see that with disabled js the page is missing the right blue 
margin, and has just a bit of a horizontal scrollbar: some 20px less in 
width?

Greetings,
francky

[css-d] cannot get side shadows for outer div to display right in FF

2006-09-11 Thread Bruce Gilbert
Hello,

I am attempting to create a CSS based page which is centered within a
browser window and has a shadow effect on the outer div repeating vertically
down the left and right sides. I have this looking decent in IE, but in
Mozilla/FF it is really screwy looking with the shadow not fitting the
layout (which means I am doing something wrong).

the URL in question is:

and the CSS can be found at:

It seems the {height:85px;} is fallen out of the #header. ;-)
Then I think all floats in the header part can be missed; will be better 
for IE/Mac too (I hope, didn't test).
See adapted header model in this testpage 
.
IE6 and FF1.7 and Opera 8.01 can have font scaling now in the header. :-)
- The nav-bar still needs some fine tuning for upscaling in FF.

francky

As far as IE Mac goes, you have the same problem as I mentioned for  
your previous question
#header {
clear:both /* <-- remove this */

Then adjust top margin on #address (which will fix both IE Mac and IE  
win32).

Here are some beginning suggestions.

First, think about your markup.  It is much more complicated than it 
needs to be and it has presentation mixed in to the structure.  The 
categories look like a menu to me, so I would mark it up as a list of 
links.  Something like this...


   
 Trabajos
 
  curriculum vitae crear
  domésticos crear
  ... and so on ...

   
   
 Servicios
 
  curriculum vitae crear
  domésticos crear
  ... and so on ...

   
   ... and so on ...


-  css 

#regions{
float:left;
width: 13em;
font-size : .9em;
}
#categories {
border: 4px solid;
background-color: white;
margin-left: 13.5em;
font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size:   15px;
padding-top: 1.5em;
}

/* if you want to force 3 columns */
#categories li {
   float: left;
   width: 33%;
}

/* If you want a specified width with as many on a line as the window 
width can fit */
#categories li {
   float: left;
   width: 10em;
}

#categories a {
   text-aign: center;
}
#categories img {

[css-d] Position links on Image bugs

2006-09-11 Thread Eleanor Hand
Hello,

This is my first post to this forum so let me say thank you for  
taking the time to look at this.

I have decided to try and create a client website using CSS  
positioning as the main layout and design. Of course the learning  
curve is huge and I'm stuck. So here I am. I am having several issues  
with different browsers. They all seem to stem from positioning text  
on top of an image. Everything is working well in Safari and Firefox  
on my mac. The problem arises in IE on both the mac and the pc  
platform. IE in Mac is currently not displaying the links but if it  
were they wouldn't work as links. IE Windows is not displaying the  
links at all. I am currently working to resolve this and would  
appreciate input on whether or not this positioning issue is  
resolvable. Am I better off using roll over buttons?

The site can be viewed here:

[css-d] My Last (I Think) IE7 Bug

2006-09-11 Thread Chris Williams
I have been testing with IE 7 and have fixed most of my issues.  But I
have found something I can't nail.  Would appreciate the wisdom of those
here.

 

If you look at my site (http://www.clwill.com 
), you will see that I use H5 headers to be a "footer" in the boxes I
draw all over the place.  There is on in the "What's New" box on the
front page, and I use them in most of the other pages in one place or
another.

 

These H5 footers in the boxes display as intended without hacks in IE5
and 6, Firefox, Safari, and anything else I have tried, except IE7 (I'm
using 7.0.5700.6).  They are truncated by a white space at the bottom of
the box.

 

I've tried conditional IE7 hacks, and can get the full text to display,
but not at the bottom of the box.  There is always this stupid white
space.

 

I'm sure it's obvious, and I'm sure it's somewhere in the Wiki pages on
IE7, but I can't find it.

 

Thanks in advance,

Chris

Sure, use margins and borders on existing elements, and place suitable
elements at the right place in the source-code so they'll "line up" in a
sensible way even without CSS.
No matter what: any such line-up tends to be a bit fragile.

Here's one solution that'll solve your line-up problems in a somewhat
stable way...


It isn't the requested line-up that's the problem, but what happens with
a page under stress. This is the web, and nothing is static.
Try font-resizing in any browser, and/or 'ignore font size' in IE/win.
Some may do just that even if you don't, so it may be a good thing to
know how a layout holds up.

Advice: you should clean up the source-code, and stop reusing IDs within
a page. The HTML validator will tell you that an ID should only be used
once. CLASS is for reuse.

regards
Georg

http://www.stuartswan.com/v6/index.php on the part that says 'You are

at least if it's fixed (for now), it's large enough to read well (for
me at least)!  first, i think the site's coloring is pretty good for
the fun attitude i get the feeling you're going for.  second, this is
a pretty quick check.

- i usually browse with a window of 800x600 and the horizontal scroll
i pretty annoying.  i tried increases my size to 1024x768 and i still
got the horizontal scroll.  i'm not sure what your stance is on that,
but i would suggest trying to get rid of it at possible.

- the text color of your main content is just pale enough to hurt my
eyes after reading a few lines.

- when hovering over the tabs in your main column, i kind of expenct
the tab to change color instead of the text to be underlined.
underlined to me is for "normal" links, not tabbing ones.

- in the same token, the rest of the links on the page don't change
anything when hovered on, which is a little confusing.  are they links
or just underlined text?  (rhetorical question)

otherwise it looks pretty clean and friendly to me!  keep in mind
these are all personal opinions, so take 'em or leave 'em.  :)

[css-d] Safari acting up with horizontal menus

2006-09-11 Thread richard n
Hi

Trying to create a simple navigation menu for my side-scrolling photo 
gallery.

I've played with dropdowns, but given up on them because they seem 
buggy (also I decided I didn't like the look of them).

Now trying  something that is hopefully a bit simpler - a 2 line 
horizontal menu. Main sections on line 1, sub sections on line 2.

I'm interested in having the menu as a SSI (I think that's what you 
call it (?) - a single linked document, rather than having the menu in 
every page).

I want an underline on the active main section and sub section - and 
the non-active subsections need to be hidden.

I want to do this with CSS.

I've got it working in FF and Opera.

But Safari gets the underlines wrong (it underlines ALL the subsection 
items).

Here's the page (which won't work in IE, for other reasons, I think):

http://www.richardnicholson.com/testing/menu/editorial.html

This is the relevant CSS:

#editorialpage #personalwork ul, #editorialpage #info ul { visibility: 
hidden;} /* hides two sub menus */
#editorialpage #commissioned {text-decoration: underline;} /* 
underlines top level menu */
#editorialpage #editorial {text-decoration: underline;} /* underlines 
sub menu */

And HTML:


Commissioned
  
Editorial
Series #1
Series #2
Annual #1
Annual #2
Contract
  

Safari underlines all the sub menu elements, not just 'editorial'.

Is this a bug in Safari? Or is there something wrong with my code (more 
than likely, as I'm new to this)? Is there a word for this type of menu 
- where CSS is controlling visibility/underlines etc?

Thanks

Richard

[css-d] Underlining across varied elements?

2006-09-11 Thread Anne E. Shroeder
I've had some terrific help from people on this list with regard to rounded 
tabbing effects and I'm very grateful!  I'm now at the next stage of trying 
to get an underline to go across from label, under tabs, and all the way to 
the right hand side of the container. This is the current version, which 
uses a table for layout:
http://www.language-works.com/swimdesign/template-2.htm

I figured that with the table I would have difficulty in getting the line to 
work unbroken across the cells -- so I did an updated version, which uses 
CSS for layout:
 http://www.language-works.com/swimdesign/no-tables.htm (I can't seem to get 
the drop down to move over to the left!!)  -- along with a screen cap of 
what it's supposed to look like.  I've tried implementing a class to handle 
the whole area
.bottomline
{
 border-bottom: 1px solid #163A66;
 }

But no cigar. Part of the trouble is that I'm using a  to get the second 
row of tabs down below the first row of tabs.  Any ideas at all?

Re: [css-d] Site check

2006-09-11 Thread Cecil Ward
RE: Site check you requested on www.theheetproject.org.uk

Hi Tim,

This is a very nice looking site. Really excellent. I took a _very brief_
look in IE7 RC1, Firefox 1.5, Opera 9, LynxViewer and a number of other
tools.

A couple of suggestions for you to consider.

1) Source order: I prefer not to have the navigation at the start of the
XHTML, and to let the real meat of the document come first. (Which you have
done for some of the secondary content already.) Nicer for accessibility and
possibly better for search engines. Shouldn't be tooo hard in this
particular case to arrange this with positioning. 

2) Conditional comments: Your IE-conditional comment if gte ie 5.5 is open
ended. I'm not sure that this is necessary for IE7 (IE8?), it might or might
not be, you probably have already looked into this. If not, I would suggest
that you take a look into this anyway and try knocking it out for IE7.
Certainly, it would be safer to limit it to IE5-6/Win unless there's some
need for it now, and it probably is not good to continue to allow hacks to
run on into future ever more compliant IE releases.

Anyway, there's certainly no obvious problem _now_ at al - it looks very
fine in IE7 RC1.

3) Links to same page. Just a personal thing, but I prefer to avoid nav
links that point to the page you're already on, and which just cause a
reload. Consider making the current entry just some text within the li. See
what you think.

I'm sure that when you get the real text in you won't have link text like
"click here".

3) I doubt it's worth bothering with meta-keywords any more.

See http://searchenginewatch.com/showPage.html?page=2165061  and
http://www.searchengineguide.com/ball/006037.html but see
http://www.seologic.com/faq/meta-keywords.php for a contrary opinion.

Very attractive.

Cecil Ward.

[css-d] styling the legend element

2006-09-11 Thread Paul Collins
Hi all,

I know CSS support for the legend element is currently minimal, but I was 
wondering if anyone has ever managed to float it left in the major browsers? In 
particular, IE5+, Firefox, Safari. 

I've got a graphic title inside which I have also floated left, was hoping I 
could override the legend element in some way and use a styling directly on 
this, but I just can't get it to float left in IE.

Here is the code sample:


 
  
  
  
  
 


If you notice any other discrepancies in the HTML, please ignore them and let's 
focus on the topic at hand!!

Also, does anybody know a good link to further information on styling the 
legend? It would be great to know what CSS attributes can be used in each 
browser.

Cheers,
Paul

[css-d] Fixing things in IE

2006-09-11 Thread Stefan Nagtegaal
Hi list,

I'm building a new layout around some CMS I use. Now, the ayout i  
finished, I want to fix it's appearance in IE first before going  
further and spice up some more things..
IMO the best way todo this is with the allknown conditional CSS tags  
Microsoft browsers offer for fixing the display inside their browsers.

The only problem I have is that there is some serious IE bug, which I  
do not know the name of. I hoped you guys can help me out.
Compare http://istyledthis.nl/ in IE and FireFox to see what I am  
talking about.

It looks like he background image which has been applied to the  
#wrapper is reloaded for the sidebars #left and #right. And the  
backgrounds for the #center column doesn't stretches down too, even  
when the content inside it isn't long enough to accomodate this..

I hope I'm at the right address for this..

Thank you in advance for any advise, idea's or thought on this one..


Yours sincerely,



Steef

The problem comes from the 'clear:both' in that rule-block. That is a  
bug in IE Mac


Delete the 'clear:both' in that rule block, and add the following
#nav {
float:left;
width:100%
}
Then adjust margins and padding in there, and your site will work  
nicely across major browsers.

I'd be more interested to learn why you want to hide a form option via
CSS and not on the server side? Seems a lot safer to me.

The first time I tried it (XP) both pages loaded correctly. Neither 
showed a problem with refresh. Both failed with back button return. 
Neither page worked as intended on first load on a cleared cache.
Best,

No highlighting in IE6 on win2K, because 'a:link' is the wrong status as
IE sees it (it has already visited the page when it's loaded :-) )

Changing it to...
body#arbeidsliv #mainNav ul li.arbeidsliv a {
...seems to cover it, and works fine on a local copy - same in IE6,
Firefox 1.5. and Opera 9.01.

Didn't check the other one, but I think it's either status or
specificity, or both, that is the key here.

This is actually a CSS 2 feature and no, there is no such solution.
While you can easily walk the tree and associate styles as you see
fit, such a method would probably be considerably slower, it would
not be able to handle modifications made to the tree by scripts,
would be difficult to apply during load of the document, and have
other such flaws.

Hi Eystein,
I clicked the refresh quite a lot, but IE6 on Win98 doesn't show any 
error, besides the normal IE refresh flash.

[css-d] CSS 3 Attribute selector - javascript workarounds for IE?

2006-09-11 Thread Smith, James
Hi there,

 

I want to use the CSS-3 attribute selector to hide a certain select 
element - naturally, selecting elements based on their attributes is not
supported by IE6 and below, but I was wondering whether anyone has seen any
simple javascript solutions for this?

 

(I am unable to add a class/ID to the option elements - they are pumped out
automatically from an XML-based CRM system over which I have no control)

 

- The following works great in FF etc:



#dropdown option[value="3"]{

display:none;

}





  --

  Text

  HTML

  Multipart



-- 

 

Any help much appreciated!

 

James

Indeed!
Just take it slow and test well, as many layouts can't take much
"abuse" or options in browsers. The one you're playing with is no
exception, but it isn't a problematic one.

> Yes, the hint is: try the "faux column" technique.

> .

And in case you prefer a non-image "faux column", this variant may give
you some ideas to play around with...

Some changes made throughout the CSS, but basically the same HTML as in
the original LG34.

Georg

[css-d] ie showing background image, but not other styles

2006-09-11 Thread Eystein Alnaes
I'm using the body-id with link-class to highlight the current page, but IE
(surprise) chokes on it. Showing the backgroundimage, and font-weight, but
none of the other styles. The nearest I've got to a fix was taking away all
parent divs, which worked once, but not again. Are you seeing the same in
IE6?

The "arbeidsliv" menypoint should be highlighted simular to when on hover.

I recreated the scenario here:
http://files.nho.no/rayon/site/ielinktest.phtml

Edit: I now see that it renders correctly on initial load, but dissapears
upon refresh.

Yes, the hint is: try the "faux column" technique. It paints a 
background image behind the whole left column, just like it was a 
background color.
And see: a testpage

[css-d] IE5 problem with menus

2006-09-11 Thread Nick Urbanik

Dear Folks,

The menus here: http://camwest.pps.com.au/ jump about in IE5, but
these menus: http://nicku.org/ seem to work fine in IE5.

I wrote both, basing the html and css on the code in
http://www.tanfa.co.uk/css/examples/menu/vs7.asp.

Can anyone suggest why http://nicku.org/ works and
http://camwest.pps.com.au/ doesn't?

Note that I tried http://camwest.pps.com.au/ in IE5.5, IE6, Firefox
1.5.0, Konqueror 3.x, Opera 9, and it seems to work fine there.

[css-d] Expanding column 3 for Layoutgala 34

2006-09-11 Thread Ingo
Hi list,

I am a CSS newbie, and rely a bit on example frameworks found on the
net. I played around with

http://blog.html.it/layoutgala/LayoutGala34.html

of Alessandro Fulcinitis LayoutGala, and like it a lot. I would like to
expand column 3 (the orange "extras") down to the footer, though.
Regardless how much content in it, the background shouldn't shine
through.

I understand fiddling mindlessly around can crash the whole design
(which I don't fully grasp yet) and it's browser compatibility, thus I
ask: Any hints?


Regards, Ingo
