Re: [css-d] Problem with menu bar
Hi Chris, Verdana was ditched because it is pug ugly -- particularly at default or greater than default. That is not true. Many people like Verdana. They prefer it over other fonts because it is more legible. It may be more legible at *small size*, but as David said increase the size and it gets ugly. http://www.xs4all.nl/~sbpoley/webmatters/verdana.html http://www.zeldman.com/2010/04/18/verdana-pro-and-con-2/ A green version :) http://davidsimpson.me/2009/03/23/verdana-must-die-for-the-good-of-the-plane t/ -- Regards, Thierry www.tjkdesign.com | www.ez-css.org | @thierrykoblentz __ 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] Equal Height Columns with CSS border-radius
Can it be done? I've been playing around for a bit now. I've tried using the One True Layout, but that cuts off the bottom, and would require some extra, ugly markup, which we want to avoid. I've tried display:table, but that forces me to have an extra thick border between the two columns. If I set border-collapse:collapse, then the border-radius goes away. I tried using a negative margin, but that didn't work. Doing a border-left:none, makes part of the rounded corner go away. Here's the HTML and CSS for the section. div id=info_blocks div h3Group #: 3322589/h3 spanMoo/span /div div spanMoo/span /div /div #info_blocks { display:table; margin:6px 0 0; } #info_blocks div { border:1px solid #d8d8d8; border-radius:5px; -moz-border-radius:5px; -webkit-border-radius:5px; display:table-cell; padding:10px; } #info_blocks div:first-child { background:#fff9e7; margin:0 -10px 0 0; width:533px; } #info_blocks div:last-child { background:#fff8d0; width:169px; } -- Marc Luzietti absynthe minded web smithes http://www.absynthe.us/ 954.496.0162 __ 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] Need help on handling h1 next to a floating div
The test page is: http://www.imag3.com/test/ Is there a way to stop the h1 from extending behind the div that is floating to the left? And, is it possible to have the yellow box dynamically center itself in the area to the right that is remaining after the left div takes up its space?
