I was looking around and the other solution may be to have JavaScript in the outer page (in *a.domain.com*) which can interpret GET values by an IFrame call to the page. Like: iframe name=I1 src=http://domain.com/frame.htm*subdomain=a*; frameborder=0 height=87 width=96% scrolling=no/iframe A third solution I'm looking at is using AJAX to read the http://domain.com/frame.htm file and inserting it into the spot in the main document where it belongs instead of an IFrame. This means that I no longer have to worry about http://domain.com/frame.htm using a CSS file since it is only html text and will use the CSS file of the main page which is what I really want. __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
[css-d] formatting Navlinks - top bottom
Newbie here. Problem page: http://www.reikisangha.net/beta/beta1.html I'm working my way through Lynda.com's CSS Web Site Design with: Eric Meyer training. I have just completed Chapter 7: Using Margins and Borders to Create White Space and Separation. Using Dreamweaver CS3, I opened a new default document: 3 column elastic, header and footer. Right now my goal is to insert format a navlinks bar similar to the Javaco Tea training files. I have been able to successfully insert the navlinks bar but formatting it properly is presenting some challenges. Right now, there's too much space in the top and bottom areas of the navlink bar. I've been adjusting margin and padding values in the: #navlinks and #navlinks li but seem to be missing some concept somewhere. Adding #navlinks li margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; doesn't seem to do anything but adding #navlinks li padding-top: 10px; padding-bottom: 10px; increases the overall height of the borders. Adjusting #navlinks to margin: 0; padding: 0px; creates an unwanted space between the logo and the navlinks bar, while adding so much as padding: 1px; creates too much height. Adding height to #navlinks begins to get me closer to where I need to be, but then the positioning of the navlink fonts are off. I've missed a concept somewhere (or it hasn't been covered yet in the material I am learning). I would like help learning what to look for to help solve problems like this.

Welcome!
Code no more or less than is necessary to achieve the goal.
Id's for example, default to margin:0; padding:0; so you don't need to
re-state it.
/Avoid setting height./
Code to the latest version of Opera and Firefox.
Confirm it's working in IE 6 IE 7.
Adjust accordingly.
Adding img {display :block;} closes the gap the IE's are leaving to
accommodates font descenders.

Re: [css-d] denying the downloading of img
jaklitsch maya wrote: I have a request to stop anyone from copying and downloading images from the website I am working on now. Impossible. Images are displayed by your web browser by doing a request for the image file and downloading it to a temporary location. There are various steps you can try to take to make it more difficult, but they add various layers of complexity to your system and they're easily beaten. Even ignoring the various transfer mechanisms, what's to stop someone from taking a screenshot of the webpage and cropping out the image? If it's photographs we're talking about you could place a watermark on them.

[css-d] Little help with IE (site check, in fact)
Hello ; Happy day to anyone. I'm running out of time, that's the reason why I bother the list. If I should have more time I would try to fix all this by myself with my friend Google, but I can't. It's for yesterday. It's not laziness. I'm still having some problems with IE6 and I can't see the solution. 1) Shadows in an empty div No matters what I do, I'm unable to make an empty div to vertically fit the parent's height. If you see it in FF, it's OK and even in IE 5 it works ! What is this ? 2) Fixed position With the footer. It just don't works as expected. There is also a problem with some tables in the articles pages (I'm working with a CMS, SPIP) It looks well but it's a dirty code. But don't look at this. I will fix it as soon as I can.

[css-d] having trouble with...you guessed it... IE 6-7

The white sidebar is really just a repeating jpg (http://www.sthig.com/churchNext//images/wraprepeat.jpg) going down the side there. It's supposed to scale evenly with the content div. It works just fine in Firefox and Safari but of course it doesn't want to play nice with IE. So what am I doing wrong? Can anyone help me out?

[css-d] Radio buttons in forms, styling without tables
Hi all, I'm trying to restyle a page to make a form work without tables. It all seems OK except for some radio buttons, and I'm having real problems in getting them correctly to align. This page illustrates the problem: http://www.tellura.co.uk/soundsteps/franchise_contact.htm It looks the way I want it to in Safari 3. In both Firefox (Mac and PC) and IE6 it looks horrible: the second radio button in each set is level with the first instead of being below it, and the second and third caption strings seem to be displaying inline with the previous radio button label. Can anyone suggest what may be going wrong? Alternatively, if anyone can point me at suitable articles on table-free forms and particularly doing radio buttons, I would be grateful.

[css-d] Sidebar issues
Hello -
Regardless of the struggles I have had with CSS, I still find myself trying
more and more. In all actuality, I probably won't build a site with tables
again! However, with that said I'm having another issue that I can't seem
to figure out and I'm hoping the experts here might give it a look. It
might be the answer is right in front of me but I've been looking at it too
long.
I'm working on a new site and have a right-hand sidebar for misc content.
The problem I have is that if the main content window is not full of content
(or more content than the sidebar), the sidebar flows down the page, over
the footer, etc. Besides looking awful, it's not acceptable! It happens in
Firefox, IE, etc.
The development site is at: http://obb.danstuenzi.com. I have included the
CSS below if anyone has any thoughts on this.
Thanks!
Todd

Also would like to know what can be done about centering the menu better. Finally, I've tested in FF 2.0.0.11 and IE 6 on Win2K Pro. All seems to display as it should... anyone having issues with other browsers/OS are encouraged to reply.

You can use the CSS 'margin' property if you need more space. fantasai, Doh! Thank you, I really should have thought of that one! That works great in Firefox and Opera, but now in Safari the UL is totally messed up. The first line of each list item is spaced right, but the bullet is way off to the right of the first line. Any suggestions as to how to fix it in Safari? Oh, and another thing: in addition to getting rid of all your brs and using CSS margins instead, you should be using proper heading markup instead of paragraphs with classes. There's four articles written by Tantek linked from this page: http://fantasai.inkedblade.net/web-design/ You should read them. You'll have web pages that are more accessible *and* easier to style if you use good markup. :) ~fantasai __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
Re: [css-d] Sidebar issues
Todd, The problem is using position: absolute for the column on the right. See http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visuren.html#absolute-positioning for more info. Both of the elements inside the wrapper should be floated. Take a look at this demo and view the source to see the css. http://www.jimdavis.org/test/floaters.html www.positioniseverything.net has good info about bugs and hacks for using floats with IE6. Also check out the List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ for more info and ideas.

In all actuality, I probably won't build a site with tables again! However, with that said I'm having another issue that I can't seem to figure out and I'm hoping the experts here might give it a look. It might be the answer is right in front of me but I've been looking at it too long. I'm working on a new site and have a right-hand sidebar for misc content. The problem I have is that if the main content window is not full of content (or more content than the sidebar), the sidebar flows down the page, over the footer, etc. Besides looking awful, it's not acceptable! It happens in Firefox, IE, etc. The development site is at: http://obb.danstuenzi.com. I have included the CSS below if anyone has any thoughts on this. Thanks!

Re: [css-d] Site test
In both FF and IE6 the nav menu breaks across two lines when the viewport is set to 1024px wide. The 'contact' image is below the 'home' image. Changing the padding on the li to 2% keeps everything on one line at 1024 wide. To center the menu you can give a width to the ul that accommodates the all of the li's, then center the ul with margin: 0 auto; Jim On Dec 12, 2007 3:51 PM, Mike Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello all.

Just wondering if I could get a site check on this temp site: http://www.grum.com/temp/al/index.html I managed the HTML/CSS, not the graphics, so I'm looking to see what, if anything, breaks (I know the h1 in the banner does on increased font-sizes). Also would like to know what can be done about centering the menu better. Finally, I've tested in FF 2.0.0.11 and IE 6 on Win2K Pro.

1) Shadows in an empty div
No matters what I do, I'm unable to make an empty div to vertically
fit the parent's height. If you see it in FF, it's OK and even in IE
5 it works ! What is this ?
IE6' standard mode isn't anywhere near standard, so IE6 can only do
what you ask for when in quirks mode. That's why older IE/win versions
appear to work as intended, since they're always in quirks mode.
Alternative: declare the relevant height directly, like...
* html .dos {
height: 200px;
}
2) Fixed position With the footer. It just don't works as expected.
IE6 (and older) doesn't understand 'position: fixed' - period!
You can add the following (complete) to the very bottom of the relevant
stylesheet...
@media screen {
* html #BAS {
position: absolute;
top:expression(eval(document.compatMode
document.compatMode=='CSS1Compat') ?
documentElement.scrollTop
+(documentElement.clientHeight-this.clientHeight)
: document.body.scrollTop
+(document.body.clientHeight-this.clientHeight));
height: 20px; margin: -2px 0 -50px 0;}
}
...and IE6 will behave as if it understands 'fixed'. IE has some
whitespace problems inside that footer though, so the footer will appear
a bit too tall.
See: http://www.gunlaug.no/contents/wd_additions_15.html for more on
that solution.
Note: you have too many nonsensical property/value mixes in there.
1: absolute and fixed positioned elements can neither float nor clear
anything, so no use floating or clearing them.
2: 100% wide elements obviously have no need for auto side-margins.
