[css-d] SUCKERFISH DROP DOWNS NON ALIGNMENT

2008-05-30 Thread ochieng' nelson
I have this site: ticah.50webs.com

I want to have the ul li li li aligned at the top irrespective of
length of text for the ul li li.
For example if you mouse over our work and go down to HIV,Culture 
Development.,the drop down from this which is School of
Oriental... should start on the same line as the parent list line
which is HIV, Culture.

Any ideas?

The css can be viewed at ticah.50webs.com/layout_css.css

Thanks.

[css-d] Select replacement

2008-05-30 Thread Clark, Martin (M.)

I'm looking into some form of replacement for a select box, so that I
have more control over the styling, and I found this example from Aaron
Gustafson.
http://old.easy-designs.net.whsites.net/articles/replaceSelect/.

This seems to give me pretty much what I need, with one problem.  In
IE6, when the list is expanded, it pushes down whatever is below it.  In
Firefox it doesn't do that, although in my application it drops down
behind the other content.  I can't link to my site unfortunately, but
you can see the first problem on Aaron's example page itself -
http://old.easy-designs.net.whsites.net/articles/replaceSelect/files/fin
al.html.

Can anyone suggest what I need to do do get the list to drop down over
the top of any other page content?  Or is there a better alternative
altogether?

Martin.

Using the...
http://old.easy-designs.net.whsites.net/articles/replaceSelect/files/final.html
...for debugging / example.

To make IE6 behave, add...

* html ul.selectReplacement {
   overflow-y: hidden;
 }
* html ul.selectOpen li {
   position: relative;
 }

That'll prevent auto-expansion on the container, and make the
overflowing parts visible and ready for action in IE6 - same as in other
browsers.

Re: [css-d] alignment in netscape

2008-05-30 Thread Melinda Odom
Well I got the flash file to at least be within the blue border by  
using the object tag and making it absolute but it is still not lined  
up from the left in netscape only.  If I put minus values on it then  
it messes up the other browsers big time.

http://eddieandalice.com/index.html

I'm really stuck with this one.  I put a regular graphic there the  
same size without using any object tags just to see and it lined up  
perfectly in netscape so must just be the flash graphic.  Am using  
swjobject.js for the flash placement also.

The css is:

#row1 {
width: 960px;
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
overflow: hidden;
border: 2px solid #3399CC;
}

/* *html #row1 {
overflow: visible;
}
don't really need this */

#row1 p {
border: 1px solid #99;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}

#flashWelcome {
float: left;
width: 636px; /* keep otherwise ie does not align correctly */
}

object {
width: 636px;
height: 277px;
position: absolute;
}

#col1Feature {
float: right;
width: 309px;
height: 277px;
}

If I change this style to relative then it lines up on the left but  
not from the top.
object {
width: 636px;
height: 277px;
position: relative;
}

I still think there is a better way to do this to have it lined up in  
all browsers so please feel free to enlighten me.

 Hello,

 please take a look at the follwoing page in IE6:
 http://www.editura.de/new/links.html

 On my computer the left column is completely white. In other browsers 
 only the left part of the header of the page is white, the rest of the 
 leftt column is orange.

 When I scroll up and down the page, parts that were white and now are 
 scrolled into the viewport of the browser window again are orange as 
 desired.

 Does anybody know how to correct this?

[css-d] stick to bottom

2008-05-30 Thread Daniel Kessler
I have added a side image to my left column (2-column  format).  I  
cannot get it to stick to the footer black bar.  Also, when I added  
it, a gap appeared between the content and the header.
Any help on making it stick to the footer bar and the gap would be  
appreciated.

 One way of doing some of that stuff is to set min/max width and shove the

 Work around method for IE/6 lifted from here [1]. Read Georg's documentation 
 carefully,
 particularly regarding Author's font size declared on html, body or 
 wrapper-division.

 [1] http://www.gunlaug.no/tos/moa_12a.html

~~

I was unable to connect to David's page, but found a lot of very useful
information on Georg's write-up at the above link.

Sadly, Georg's solution for sizing in EMs does not work on my
computer. The calculations are based on the usual screen resolution
of 96 DPI, where IE computes 12 points at 16 pixels. My laptop comes
set to 120 DPI, and IE computes 12 points at 20 pixels here.

I was able to come up with a hybrid JavaScript solution based on Georg's
work, but the IE 'expressions' slow down IE too much for my liking.
In the end, I went with a fixed width for IE 5 and 6.  :-(

Cordially,
David

RE: http://sph.umd.edu/events/wellness/

You seem to be tripping over the complexity of your stuff and the need 
to clear that stuff.

This is /one way/ to stick the bottom of the plant to the top of the 
footer, more or less, regardless of the amount of content in the right 
column:

Make the primary content first in the source. Put the plant at the 
bottom of the primary content. Then literally throw the plant to the 
bottom of the adjacent side column at the top of the footer...
