Re: [css-d] css validation help

Hi everybody,
So my css and xhtml almost validate, except for two things:
1) The third line here validates in CSS3 but not in CSS2.1 -
a) does that matter?
Erik Vorhes has already stated that it doesn't matter.
b) the overflow-y is the only way I've found to stop the page jumping
around in IE8. Maybe somebody else has a better solution?
html {
/* forces scrollbar visible to prevent position jumping in Firefox
*/
height: 100%;
margin-bottom: 1px;
overflow-y: scroll /* forces scrollbar visible to prevent position
jumping in IE8 */
}
We would need to see a test case here. It may be IE8 following CSS2.1 to
the letter or handling invalid XHTML differently. Get your XHTML valid.
My style rules for IE6 using the underscore hack, e.g.:
..threeColLeft {
_display: inline;
}
I didn't really want to create a separate stylesheet for IE6 but maybe I
should if I want validation. What would you do?
Replace the above with,
* html .threeColLeft {
display: inline;
}
This is valid but should never select anything but IE6 or lower have an
element outside the html. Chris Wilson of MS was the one who coded it
in trident (IE rendering engine) in the 1990s.
Any help, advice, comments or suggestions - and please no abuse about
using hacks in the first place - would be gratefully received.
Hack the older browsers by CSS that no browser should use. The above
works in IE6. This one works in IE7.
*+html .threeColLeft {
display: inline;
}
This bug or whatever is not present in IE8.
Never use unsupported selectors to target specific browsers. This one I
used with Safari 3 to target it.
*:not(:root)~html #wrapper2+div[id*=]:not(:first-child)*
Now Safari 4 does not honor empty attribute substring selectors like
it's cousin Firefox. All such hacks will eventually fail as browsers
support of CSS improves or if other implementors change course.
The best way is to only hack IE7 or lower since all modern browsers
(including IE8) should render a page the same way. I would not recommend
hacking your HTML with IE Conditional comments since they are not in one
location and thus not easily removed.
P.S. what really are the advantages of being compliant? I hear it's
better for SEO and I like the idea, just from a professional pride POV
but why be compliant. Do a couple of underscore hacks pose a problem?
This has no affect with SEO (which is off-topic here). The underscore
hack just invalidates the CSS.

Z-index creates a new 'Stacking Context' [4].

[css-d] Background images not displaying in IE 7
I'm working on getting a test site up, but in the meantime I was hoping
someone could look over my code quickly and see if anything jumps out as
possibly causing this bug. My background images aren't showing up in IE 7.
They work perfectly fine in both Safari and Firefox.
I've looked over the code endlessly and tried a lot of different hacks from
online forums, but nothing has worked yet. I've tried many times to change
the position of the #indexjacket element, which is not showing up, with no
success. The #textstrip element is also not appearing, although the
#indextext one is. Any ideas??

[css-d] width:100%; not rendering 100%
Hi, I've got a page with two divs, one over the other, both set to 100% width. The one on the top is positioned absolute at 0,0. The one under it is a nav bar using the sliding window tabs and it's positioned float:left. The one on the top is rendering to 100% width while the one under it is not; leaving margins on both the left and right. I got it to render close to correct by setting the left-margin to -7px and the width to 101.5% but as I increase the window width the bottom scroll bar appears due, I guess, to the percentage getting 'out of whack'. At any rate, I'm pretty sure that's not the best way to fix it anyway. Could someone please tell me why it's happening and the right way to fix this? The page is at http://ec2-75-101-179-238.compute-1.amazonaws.com Thanks in advance!

You need to add this to your CSS:
body { margin: 0; padding: 0; }
Then width: 100% should render the same on both divs.

[css-d] 100% body height not expanding beyond viewport
This is probably basic, but it has me stumped at the moment. I have a
design where the body background is a single color and then there is a
wrapper around the content which is centered on the page. The background of
that wrapper is white and is supposed to extend the full height of the page
- even if the content itself does not. So, my CSS looks like this .
html, body {
height: 100%;
background: #d0dce7;
}
#bodyWrap {
position: relative;
width: 90%;
margin: 0 auto;
max-width: 1276px;
min-width: 796px;
min-height: 100%;
}
* html #bodyWrap {
height: 100%;
background: #ff;
}
Now, when the context does not extend the full height of the viewport, this
works just fine. The bodyWrap div extends the full height of the view
port and there is this nice white column going the full height of the page
with blue side bars. The issue is when the content extends beyond the
height of the viewport. Then, the bodyWrap div extends with the content
like it should. However, the body element, or at least the background color
does not extend - it stops at the height of the view port.
Can somebody help me out with what I am missing here?
Thanks

And it still was not right. If you need to keep your current markup, then someone else on the list may provide a better solution than I could. If, on the other hand, you can live with a different layout structure and faux columns, it's a breeze to pull-off without any hacks.

[css-d] background image shift in IE6
Hi folks, Please take a look at http://www.savvyrest.com/products/organic-mattresses in Firefox vs IE6. The active tab background image appears to shift in IE6 about 25 pixels vertically. Any ideas?

Re: [css-d] 100% body height not expanding beyond viewport
This has not appeared on the list yet, so I apologize if it ends up
duplicated. Thx.

Subject: 100% body height not expanding beyond viewport
This is probably basic, but it has me stumped at the moment. I have a
design where the body background is a single color and then there is a
wrapper around the content which is centered on the page. The background of
that wrapper is white and is supposed to extend the full height of the page
- even if the content itself does not. So, my CSS looks like this .
html, body {
height: 100%;
background: #d0dce7;
}
#bodyWrap {
position: relative;
width: 90%;
margin: 0 auto;
max-width: 1276px;
min-width: 796px;
min-height: 100%;
}
* html #bodyWrap {
height: 100%;
background: #ff;
}
Now, when the context does not extend the full height of the viewport, this
works just fine. The bodyWrap div extends the full height of the view
port and there is this nice white column going the full height of the page
with blue side bars. The issue is when the content extends beyond the
height of the viewport. Then, the bodyWrap div extends with the content
like it should. However, the body element, or at least the background color
does not extend - it stops at the height of the view port.
Can somebody help me out with what I am missing here?
Thanks
-- Jeff

[css-d] ie6 float problem
Hi, I have a page that displays appropriately in Firefox, Safari, Ie 7 + 8 but, according to browsershots, is not displaying properly in Ie6. A sample page with the problem can be found at: http://www.web-devel.co.nz/myvreo/test.html Note: The other links should take you to a login page because the page would normally be visible only to users that have logged in. The line beneath the tabbed menu contains an image, a menu list (add New Buyer, etc) and a search form. They line up correctly in the modern browsers but in ie6 (according to browsershots) the search form is to the left and above the image and menu instead of being on the right. The image is floated left of the ul menu and the form is floated right. I've validated the html and the css and there doesn't appear to be any errors that are associated with the problem. I'm pulling my hair out trying to sort the problem out because I can only check changes via browsershot and the turn-around is quite slow (and so far unproductive). Help greatly appreciated.
