To begin, clean up your markup by removing the BReak tags from between your LIs. 1) XHTML doesn't permit any children of a UL except LI. 2) Avoid using markup to force presentation. Instead, use CSS. 3) LI is by default a block-level element, which means that HTML lists render vertically by default, so you don't need to force the list items to render on separate lines. (If you had styled them as inline or floated so they wanted to render on the same row, there are better ways of forcing them into a vertical list than by inserting break tags, even in legal positions. But you're not creating that situation so all the break tags are doing (other than invalidating your markup) is increasing vertical spacing between your unordered list items. The W3C HTML Validator is your friend: http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1uri=http%3A%2F%2Fttphp.open.ac.uk%2F~bs3578%2Ftest1%2FWeek07_05-01.php The answer to your question is that you can use top bottom margin and/or padding in your stylesheet to modify the default vertical spacing between various elements. Your list markup is: ul lih4Surname/h4 ol li ... If it's the vertical space between the surname heading and the list below it that you want to decrease, I'd decrease the margin-bottom on ul h4 and/or the margin-top on ul ol. To replace the break tags I've suggested you remove, simply give each ul li a margin-bottom of 1em or whatever, then counteract that with ul ol li {margin-bottom: 0); Regards, Paul __ Paul Novitski Juniper Webcraft Ltd. http://juniperwebcraft.com __ 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/

[css-d] 'Local proxy' tool to aid in CSS development of dynamic sites
Hi, I work for an enterprise-level ecommerce platform and we have separated our site build process into two phases - functionality and look-and-feel (or you could say separate content and style). The html and any javascript is completed as much as possible during the functionality phase, so the look-and-feel phase is as close as we can get it to just using CSS and images to apply a design. We identified a problem when using CSS developers whose normal way of working is to save the html of a site locally and apply the CSS. Our sites are dynamic and we may need to add products and content to the site at any point during the build process. This meant they could be developing CSS against out of date content. To solve this problem we have commissioned a CSS developer tool, which is essentially a local proxy. It allows you to work with local CSS (or indeed images or javascript) and preview your changes against a dynamic site. The tool is fully functional (although still in beta) and we have been using it internally for a few months. I have particularly found it useful for bugfixing of our live sites. You can fix any CSS problem on any browser and be confident that you have tested it against the real site before pushing your fix live. The tool is still in beta and the set up requires use of the command line, but please do try it out and let me know if you find it useful: http://www.venda.com/page/developertools If you wish to run the tool on several browsers at once, note that it's best to run several instances of the site. Also it's best not to proxy too many files at once as this can cause your browser to slow down. I hope you find this useful - I'd be greatful for any feedback Cheers, Olly __ 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/

[css-d] adjusting overall size in css?
Hi all, I'm having yet another problem with the site I'm working on. It seemed perfect, then I was told that the person viewing it could not see the entire site (width) on his computer monitor. I verified that this is not a very old monitor. I probably should try to make the overall wrapper width a bit narrower since it's set at a width of 1200px, but I was designing the site with the idea that the old 600x800 monitors are pretty much obsolete so it seems that it should work in anything else. I've viewed the site on 4 different machines-including a fairly small laptop screen, which shows it perfectly. But while viewing on a different, older laptop, one must scroll side to side to see much of the text while keeping the left navigation in view. I'm told by a few friends that I had check it that it views the same way on a couple other screens. So my question is, is there a way to make the site stay the same size on a larger monitor but automatically shrink down on a smaller one? Please keep in mind that the site must be easily viewable by an audience that is not terribly computer-savvy so expecting them to change monitor settings or browser settings is not the solution. http://fossilbyte.com/1/index.html Thank you!

Have you considered accommodating the opposite situation? Here's an example showing what can happen on an expensive high quality modern display: http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/jennbe01.jpg Note that to consider it properly requires one of two things: 1-using a display of same resolution and size, or 2-mentally adjusting to the different object sizes by using objects other than the content of your page as a frame of reference, such as web pages of elastic design, other open apps, and/or the desktop's UI text. The problem is actually the same at 2560x1600 as it is at 800x600. You've set an inflexible overall width in px, as well as other of your CSS sizes. That fixed width methodology does not and cannot take into account that not everyone uses mediocre hardware and settings. Essentially it's what's known as resolution dependent, which only works well if the viewer's system resolution isn't far removed from your own. If you convert to a resolution independent system of sizing, e.g. via elastic (em-based) rather than fixed design, you have the potential to please a far greater number of visitors, whether their displays are old, new, in between -- or future. -- Cast but a glance at riches, and they are gone, for they will surely sprout wings and fly off to the sky like an eagle.Proverbs 23:5 NIV Team OS/2 ** Reg.

And if you don't try to specify exact fonts other than perhaps the generic serif and sans-serif families then they'll usually see font they don't mind much. This involves mostly not doing stuff and allowing the user's browser to be the boss. It saves time and effort for the designer, but it means giving up a level of control, which many designers feel uncomfortable about. But whether you actually have or can have that level of control is at least questionable and I recommend a read through Stewart Allsopp's seminal article at http://www.alistapart.com/articles/dao -- Ed Seedhouse __ 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/

[css-d] Tab layout problem
Hi all, I'm seeing if I can get a tabbed layout to work: http://www.donann.co.uk/new_site/tabs1.html What I've got so far works okay to a certain degree in Firefox/Opera/Safari (IE6 is not okay but I'm not to worried about that at the moment). I've used div's with height 1px to make the 'borders' under the tabs. Trouble is when I zoom to make the font bigger in Firefox I get the divs that I've used to make up the 'border' under the tabs starting to go out of line slightly. Worse is zooming to make the font's smaller, where the end div becomes too wide for the width and moves down under the others that I've used to make the bottom borders of the tab's. A couple of questions: I couldn't Google any information towards a layout like this, any pointers to pages that might help would be greatfully received! I'm using em's to set the width of the tabs and the width of the div's used to make the 'borders' beneath them. I assumed that when using em's and then increasing/decreasing the font size the relative width measurements of the tab's and div's making the 'borders' should stay the same. Is this assumption correct and if so, is the problem I'm having due to my lack of accuracy with the em values I'm using? Also if anyone thinks I'm barking up the wrong tree trying to do it this way please let me know and I'll start again! Hope that makes sense.

And relatively easy when using text, and foreground images, to set a min/max width on the outermost wrapper so that the text content, and images, will be usable and functional and collapse and expand to any given window of 640 to up in the 1200 range. But to re-construct your page, to make it behave that way. would be an extremely difficult, complex, and very time-consuming adventure in an entirely different layout concept than you have now. Given that, unless you have at least a month or more, to start over and work out all the issues, I'd opt for informing users who are having difficulty that both horizontal and vertical scrolling is necessary to view the content of the site in narrow windows. __ 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/

Hi Jenni, You have already received some good advice, but I'd like to add my two cents. I think 1200px a bit ambitious - many of those lovely new netbooks display at 1024 pixels wide. A popular size these days seems to be 960px - my browsers are all set around 1,000px wide because of this, despite having a 1680px wide screen. Liquid or elastic designs can be difficult, especially if you have a designer who does not understand the Web. I suggest getting the book Flexible Web Design by Zoe Gillenwater to educate your designer on this. FWIW - I assist at a computer training workshop. A number of students set the resolution to 800 by 600 to make the text bigger. I imagine that's what they do at home, too.

On my employer's standard browser (IE6), that makes the default Medium font look large to me ... eventually I'll tweak it. -- David gn...@hawaii.rr.com authenticity, honesty, community __ 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/
