Re: [css-d] CSS footer article from A List Apart breaks when width is added (in ie6)
Hi, I use a pure CSS footer lock but have not tested it using a fixed width -might be worth a try: http://matthewjamestaylor.com/blog/keeping-footers-at-the-bottom-of-the-page Not sure why alistapart's version would break with width. If I get a chance I'll have a play with their code and see if I can get it to work.

Re: [css-d] CSS footer article from A List Apart breaks when width is added (in ie6)
Yes, sorry, should have put that in:
http://www.alistapart.com/d/footers/footer_css3.html
I just successfully used the sticky-footer (http://ryanfait.com/
sticky-footer/, thank you list)
But because the of my design requirements (the nav bg extends past
the left and right edges -not up yet but i will post it when it is) I
had to employ a faux-columns technique to get the appearance of width
in the content area.
What i seem to keep needing is a second box for the content area that
i can style (width, bg color, etc) that will ALSO go to the bottom of
the viewer.
I will put a link up as soon as i can.
Thanks,

Dinshaw,
Do you have a link to the demo? Try: http://cssstickyfooter.com,
not sure of the exact URL?
If you Google 'Sticky Footer' you'll find it.

I have been using this footer technique for a while:
http://www.alistapart.com/articles/footers
uses an absolutely positioned footer
Example 3 is the final version that dose not use any scripting.
It looks great in ie6 (and everything else) until you add a width
declaration to the container
#container {
position: relative;
min-height: 100%;
height: 100%;
voice-family: \}\;
voice-family: inherit;
height: auto;
background:url(/images/bg/blue_bg.png) -3px 0 repeat-y;
/* breaks if added */
width:500px;
}
then the footer rises to the bottom of the content.
Any one know why?
Any one know a working bottom-of-the-browser-fixed footer with width
technique?

[css-d] IE6/IE7 border problem on list items (wrapping)
Hello, I have a list of links in a fixed-width div. Each link is in an li tag. The li tag has a border-right to create vertical separators. One of the link's text is too long and word wraps to the next line. In IE6 and IE7, there is an extra right border that appears at the end of the line for that link that is word-wrapping in addition to the correct border-right that appears on the next line. FF and IE8 do not have this problem. Here is the URL isolating the problem. http://stephentang.info/ie/test.html One solution is for me to change the CSS so that there are border-left lines on the li tags, but I was wondering if I could avoid this. Thank you for reading. --Stephen __ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] 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] IE6/IE7 border problem on list items (wrapping)
Hi Brian, Unfortunately, the content of the links are dynamically generated. I'd have to ask the programming team to change their code to create a vertical line explicitly. I'm trying to determine if I can avoid this. I just tried with a border-left and the problem is still there. --Stephen On Wed, Apr 15, 2009 at 2:19 PM, Brian Hazelton bdh_2...@comcast.net wrote: if the border is just for spacing, you could remove the border and put in a margin or padding and then for the vertical line seperator just use the pipe character on the keyboard. __ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] 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] IE6/IE7 border problem on list items (wrapping)
instead of display:inline try float:left, it won't allow the items to wrap, if it is too long for the line, it will bring it down to the next.

Re: [css-d] IE6/IE7 border problem on list items (wrapping)
Hi Brian, Actually, the li tags are display: inline. However, there was a float: none that was taking precedence over the float: left in another class.

Re: [css-d] IE6/IE7 border problem on list items (wrapping)
Ok, I tried applying this on the a tag and it's also broken in IE6/IE7. This looks like a fundamental rendering bug in IE6/IE7. I'm going to have to remove the border entirely and go explicit with a vertical pipe |. Time to go ask the programmers to make a change. --Stephen On Wed, Apr 15, 2009 at 2:43 PM, Stephen Tang clowwizarder...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Brian, Actually, the li tags are display: inline.
