Re: [css-d] Displaying/Simulating handwritten fonts on notebook paper

2009-05-20 Thread Bruno Fassino
Chris, Ryan,

Thanks for your kind words! CSS offers many possibilities, but in some
cases it would be nice if it had more specific properties and control
to avoid recurring to tricks, which frequently have a dark side :-)
In this case, at least the javascript should be made more robust
before using it in any real page with generic content... And, to come
back to CSS, if one wants the possibility to specify a line-height,
then IE7 and lower need further corrections.

Best regards,
Bruno

About the icons, They don't matter, but if they _could_ be shown 


 And, if push came shove, I'd consider setting a fixed width of 990px on the
 page outermost wrapper for IE/6.0 (only). This will prevent the float drop
 in narrow windows, in IE/6.  And, it will resolve that IE/6 does not support
 min/max width.

That should then be in a CC in the header or in a ie.css ?


 I do not know, as well, why you need be particularly concerned with the
 zoom toy in IE. Unless you are willing to start from scratch with a
 different layout concept, it may be beneficial to accept IE's zoom toy for
 what it is: *page zoom. *

I was just testing how it behaved in a large size, but should
problably instead have used browsershot.com? to test it in.

This star html hack will set the fixed width for IE/6. Leave it in the 
CSS file. Or, if you prefer, put it in an IE/6 conditional comment. It 
will work either way.
* html div#side {width:990px;} /* for IE/6 */

The division ( .manchet ) in the right column that has the float right 
images needs to be cleared for IE/6. Add this to the style sheet to do 
that (this will not adversely effect other browsers, so no need to put 
it in a CC):

.manchet:after
{
content: '.';
display: block;
height: 0;
clear: both;
visibility: hidden;
}
.manchet {
display: inline-block;
}


 About the icons, They don't matter, but if they _could_ be shown 
   


IE/6 does not support this css selector:
a[href^=mailto:;]  {background-image:url(email000.png);}
IE/8, and IE/7, do support it and show your icons.
If it is necessary to have those two icons in IE/6 you'll need to feed 
them to it with a simple selector. Seems more trouble than it is worth 
(to me) for a browsers that is on death row. But it is your call...

A static screen capture from browsershot will not show how the fonts 
scale. IETester only enables page zoom, not font-scaling. To test the 
IEs for font-scaling on a native box or the standalone versions

In IE/6 it is: viewtext sizelargest. In IE 7/8 it is: pagetext 
sizelargest

Thank you, I will use it.

No need for them in IE6.
I was just hoping :(

Thanks for this information


I know that anything you put on a webpage is sometimes shown
differently in any browser. And even more differently if the user are
using a homemade configuration of the browser

Thanks for the correction.
