 Name stuff whatever you like,  but isn't calling the very 1st division
 to open and the last division close /div26/ a little confusing?
 Fwiw, on the example I put up it's called #page:
 http://www.chelseacreekstudio.com/ca/cssd/n.htm
 
 You could make a small shadow image with photoshop. Position it in the
 css as a background-image [1] at the bottom and repeating on the y-axis
 of div26.

 http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/colors.html
 
 You could instead create a drop shadow on the division using css (no
 image needed).
 This is an example [2] of same by Stu Nicholls

 For a lot of reasons please reply to the list, as well as me. Writing

Dear David,

Thank you for taking the time to create the example.  I have been playing
around with it, trying to resize various components and change their content
without much success.  I find that once I start changing either of those
things the layout goes all over the place and the auto centering no longer
functions.  

If its not to much trouble could you describe that basic steps that are
required to build a auto centering page from scratch and how best to name
the various divs so that I can understand how the structure works and how it
can be modifies and built upon?

Thanks,
Brian

 Brian 



   

1/ Horizontally centering the page on the screen.
http://bluerobot.com/web/css/center1.html

2/ A simple naming convention for a two-column layout with horizontal 
navigation under the header /might be:/
#header (contains h1-- the document-title, and the logo).
#hnav (contains the horizontal navigation).
#content (contains the primary content of the page).
#sidebar (contains  the secondary content of the page and vertical 
navigation if any).
#footer (contains tertiary and incidental information.)

Float (rather than absolute positioned) structured layouts will work 
better for you.  Layouts that employ floats in combination with negative 
margins tend to be very stable, and robust cross-browser (in addition to 
allowing the preference some authors have for putting the primary 
content first in the document source order). This a set of various 2  3 
column float layouts using these principles:
http://blog.html.it/layoutgala/.
(n.38 at the bottom of the set is probably closest to what I assume you 
are after).

Re: [css-d] h1 tags issue with Word Press

2008-07-14 Thread Chris Akins
Well - the div id differs on these two pages.  The h1 tag that looks like
you want it lives in a div with id=site_content.  The one that doesn't
look right lives in a div with id=content.

Otherwise, both are simple h1 tags.  The styling on those two div id's
must be the difference.

ok, did you try

a:focus .extraLinktext {

That seems to quit the scrollbar in Opera. Can't test the focus thing

Re: [css-d] Why do fonts show like this?

2008-07-14 Thread Michelle Cole
Thansk all - okay, here we go..

 Validate the markup on all pages. Do you and/or the client have IE/ 
6 and IE/7 set at anything other than Text Size : medium (default)?

I validated - right now, the only thing that makes it *invalid* is the  
flash.  But when I take out the flash, the page is 100% valid (index  
anyway), and the font doesn't change.  I'm in the middle of getting  
feedback from the client, so I had to put the flash back in (they'll  
freak out if they go to check it this morning and the flash is gone  
LOL) but it's green across the board when I take the flash out - yet  
no change in the font display.

 How about posting a screenshot or two if the font you're getting  
that doesn't look right, and I can compare it with what I'm seeing?

http://brassblogs.com/testbed/temp/Safari.jpg
http://brassblogs.com/testbed/temp/Camino.jpg
http://brassblogs.com/testbed/temp/FF3.jpg

All 3 on Mac running OSX.  Don't have access to my PC right now - my 4- 
year-old is playing games on it :D

 You are using OS X 10.5.x

You're right:  10.5.3

 For OS X,  you can use the following:
{font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; font-weight: 200;}

I *did* try that, and it didn't make much of a difference.  A little  
bit, but not much.

The thing is, the client is on a PC - I *believe* running IE7, but I'm  
not positive.  After some Googling, I've found some other things said  
about the browser settings (font smoothing as you've mentioned) and  
other browser bugs that make it display like this.  And for the  
record, I've also tried Arial, Helvetica, and some other fonts as well  
that might be a good tradeoff - but it still renders them as if it's  
bold text.

Thank GOD these guys understand that they cannot control other  
people's browsers, and that sometimes things like this will happen.   
So I'm going to let them know that this is just a bug, and not  
everyone will see it.  They'll probably play along with that and be  
fine with it.  I know they won't want to add in any extra hacking or  
whatever to make it look right for them - so as long as they know some  
people are getting the right view then they'll be fine.

But thanks for that - I appreciate it :)

~Shelly

  When you have the PC back, check the setting in both IE/6 and IE/7

 IE6 - yes, set to Medium, and looks fine.

 IE7 - yep - it's the same.  It doesn't look *quite* as bold in IE7 as  
 it does on my Mac, but it's definitely bolder than my comp was.   
 Probably - as someone said - due to the font-smoothing.  The bold text  
 here is *slightly* bolder, but not much  I think if I didn't know it  
 was there, I wouldn't even notice it.

 Thanks for peeking for me, though :)

O.K. ClearType is on by default in Windows Vista. If you, and your 
client, are on XP, try enabling the ClearFont Tuner [1] and see if it 
makes a difference.

Your header is identical in XP in Firefox, IE/6 and IE/7 /when landing 
on the page/.  See if you have both IEs set at anything other than Text 
Size medium. Text-size largest destroys (breaks) your header in 
both IE/6 and IE/7. The reason it breaks in IE (and does not scale well 
in compliant browsers) is because of all the absolute positioning you've 
used.

I don't know why your switcher is not working. I did not look at it. 
More important,  I do not know why you have a font-size switcher in the 
first place. /All/ browsers  come  with  the means for users to increase 
or decrease font-size. Set font-size 100% on the body and allow the 
primary p to inherit default (100%); and, all users all over the 
universe, if not beyond, will be able to increase or decrease the font 
size of your page as /they/ see fit.


The above issues where more or less addressed and resolved in this 
example [1] in reply to you and the list several days ago in response to 
your post from last week. It uses floats-- no absolute positioning needed.

[css-d] IE margin, padding, and .png issues

2008-07-14 Thread Daniel Hammond
URL: http://www.objectivedesigns.com/amittius/white/index.htm
CSS: http://www.objectivedesigns.com/amittius/white/index.css

On Windows XP Pro... FF3, Opera 9.51, and Safari 3.1.2 display the site
correctly. IE7 and IE6 don't. IE7 shows everything right except the padding
on the links in the footer (it doesn't put padding on the bottom of the
links, only the sides and the top). IE6 has this same problem, but it also
doesn't correctly execute the margins of the light blue boxes that are
within the body text. It pushes them too far away from the sides of the
container. IE6 also seems to be unable to correctly display PNG images with
semi-transparent pixels (the background images that appear around the
header, container, and footer).

Alright, my CSS is valid.

I understand that IE6 just isn't going to show the transparent PNG's
correctly. I'll either live with it or deal with it later. But what about
the bottom padding of the links in the footer? Neither IE6 nor IE7 show that
correctly.

[css-d] IE 7 Problem

2008-07-14 Thread Jeff Chasin
Apologies to everyone if this is an easy fix, but my eyes are bleary  
at this point, and I'm stuck.


Have a WordPress site that looks just fine in FireFox, Safari and IE  
6, but freaks out in IE 7.  I think it's the float layout, but can't  
find the exact fix.

The site is at http://www.businessinsightgroup.net/

The css is at http://snipurl.com/ie7ache

I think the problem is in the layout section of the css file, marked  
with a comment as:/* !layout (sandbox 2col left) */

I've been reading every IE7 bug article, but I'm just not seeing the  
issue.  If anyone has any suggestions at all, I would really  
appreciate any advice you might be willing to share.

Thanks very much.

Add - display: inline - to both .l_box and .r_box to take care if IEs double 
float margin bug [1], and add the following selector - 

#footer a {zoom: 1;}

to see if that takes care of the IE issues in your footer [2]

The overlap in IE7 is caused by *height: 10px;. IE7 is using this height 
for the header.

div#header {
background: url('img/big-header3.png') left top no-repeat;
margin: 0;
border: 0;
padding: 0;
*height: 10px;
}


Once you remove *height: 10px;, IE7 render the same as the other 
browsers. Apart from the universal selector '*' causing parsing errors 
in your style sheet, thus making it invalid. The universal selector used 
in this fashion is a way to hack IE7 with invalid CSS (non IE browsers 
will drop the declarations). This hack is repeated may times through out 
your style sheet like.

*font:x-small;


I would suggest that you remove all of them and thus create a valid 
style sheet. The CSS validator will help.
