[css-d] articles on CSS: what features needed?

2008-09-02 Thread Gabriele Romanato
Hi all!
My BD (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bipolar_disorder) seems to be normal at
the time of writing, so I'm going on with my articles
on CSS, that will be published next fall.
I'd like to know what kind of features you'd like to see in my articles.
Please write down a wish list and let me know.

xxx ^.^

2008-09-02 Thread Brian Cummiskey
Chrome is set to drop for download sometime today:

http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2008/09/fresh-take-on-browser.html


Anyone get a pre-release copy to do some testing?  Any scary things we 
should be aware of?

Thanks

It uses WebKit as rendering engine. That is all we need to know, as  
far as CSS-D is concerned.

But which version? Also I am sure that there will be differences. There 
are differences between Firefox3 on PC and Mac and that is the same 
engine...

 But which version?

That is a more reasonable question. Until we have builds at hand, we  
can't answer it. Sure bet is the equivalent of the WebKit version used  
by Safari 3.1; or newer (the one in Safari 4beta?).
It is a pity that WebKit doesn't have release versions the way Gecko  
has (Gecko 1.7, 1.8.0, 1.8.1, 1.9.0, ...).

 ... There are differences between Firefox3 on PC and Mac and that is  
 the same engine...
Most differences I run into have more to do with underlying OS-level  
technologies/APIs/fonts etc.

[css-d] Mouse hover on image problem

2008-09-02 Thread Kamru Miah
Hello,
My companying uses a standard template for all Intranet applications 
with an number image links,

e.g.
a href=/
   img src=/templates/images/intrahome.gif alt=intranet home 
class=navTabs
/a

In my own style-sheet I have added a background colour to all mouse 
hover using the code below:

a:hover {
   color: #ff; background: #b0e0e6;
}

The above background colour hover works fine with text links, but not if 
it has an image.

I am a new to CSS and do not know why a colour block appears above the 
image when I hover over it, rather than behind?

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards,

Kamru

Is your image in a div or other container that is displaying the color?

The image is inside a table cell, which has another background image, i.e.:

 td style=
   background-color: ###banner#;
   background-image: url(/templates/images/#bannerImage#);
   background-repeat: no-repeat;
   text-align: right;
   line-height: 35pt;
 
 .
 .
 .
 a href=/
   img src=/templates/images/intrahome.gif alt=intranet 
home class=navTabs #request.xhtmlStr#
 /a
 .
 .
 .
 /td

[css-d] script to switch single css line?

2008-09-02 Thread Drew LaPlante
hello all,

first email to the list... i've learned a lot by viewing all the questions
and answers since i've been receiving list emails. thanks!

i'm looking for the simplest way to switch a background image on the body of
the page either on the rollover or click on the thumbnail of an image.  the
site is www.drewlaplante.com and i'd like to take advantage of the
transparencies built into the graphics and make the it more interactive for
viewers.

i know that i could load in different style sheets, but if there's a way to
switch a single line it would be more streamlined...

site:  http://www.drewlaplante.com
style sheet: http://www.drewlaplante.com/wp-content/themes/cloudy/style.css

i know this is probably a javascript/css question but i thought that some of
you may have done this before.

any help would be much appreciated!

thanks!!

regards,

drew thomas laplante

There is no need to touch the styles sheet (switch line or else).
You could go with these:
body.tree {background-image:url(tree.jpg);}
body.doc {background-image:url(doc.jpg);}
body.cat {background-image:url(cat.jpg);}

and then use JS (off-topic here) to swap classes

Hi David,

For the app we work with, I have to do that quite often, but I use this
simple approach:

float:left;
width:(whatever)px;
position:relative;
left:50%;
margin-left:-(whatever/2)px;

With this technique, one can even center two floats next to each other
without the need of a wrapper.
The only issue I ran into with this so far, is that if you apply a
background image to the float then IE 6 will position the left edge of the
container in the middle of the viewport and only then will move it to the
left. If there is no background image, or if it is styling an inner element
then it's fine.

The download doesn't work. I've been sitting here for 5
minutes after hitting [Accept and Install]

Leaves a good taste in my mouth.

[css-d] disappearing arrow

Hi!

An arrow that should appear to the left of the text Board is missing in IE
on this page:

http://www.blackfootchallenge.org/rebeccatest/nav1.html

It looks as it should in Firefox.

What is going on?

Thank you :)
