Re: [css-d] nav bar: how to move one item all the way to the right?

2011-07-25 Thread Koen van der Drift
Thanks for the suggestions. I ended up solving it by taking the link out of the 
unordered list in the nav bar and position it manually at the right side.

- Koen.

 Try
 
 nav { position:relative; padding-right: 30px;}
 nav a.rightitem { postition: absolute; right: 0; }
 
 Make sure the padding-right on nav is sufficient.

 Hi,
 
 I have a working nab bar and want to move the right most item all the way to 
 the right. I tried the following:
 
 nav
ul
li….  [insert links here]
lia href=../rightlink.html 
 class=rightitemallright/a/li
/ul
 /nav
 
 nav ul
 {
margin: 0;  /* reset */
padding: 0; /* reset */
list-style-type: none;  /* no bullets */
overflow: hidden;
 }
 
 nav li
 {
display: inline;
float: left;
 }
 
 
 nav a.rightitem
 {
float: right;
 }
 
 
 
 But that doesn't do what I am looking for.
 
 Any suggestions?
 
 Thanks,

Hi Css,

Zachary Uram added your name to Academia.edu, the global directory of academics 
and graduate students. We checked your department directory, and it looks like 
you are an academic/graduate student. You are currently listed as an 'unknown' 
academic/graduate student: resolve your 'unknown' status by following one of 
the links below:

Yes, I am an academic/graduate student:
http://academia.edu/Yes-Css-List--css-d-at-lists.css-discuss.org--is-an-academic-or-graduate-student

No, I am not an academic/graduate student:
http://academia.edu/Remove-Css-List--css-d-at-lists.css-discuss.org--from-the-directory-of-academics

Stephen Hawking, Richard Dawkins, Paul Krugman, Noam Chomsky and Steven Pinker 
have all confirmed their membership of their departments on Academia.edu.

Thanks,
The Academia.edu Team

   Really?  REALLY?
   I admit there was a powerful temptation to click the Yes, I am an 
academic/graduate student link and then block all future mails from 
the service, but I settled for clicking No, I am not an 
academic/graduate student and then blocking all future mails from 
the service.  (I hope.)
   Remember, folks, every time you let a social service harvest your 
address book, God kills a baby lemming.  So don't do it.  The baby 
lemmings have a hard enough life as it is.

Alan: if you don't mind, a few questions about this code?  I've been  
tinkering and entering what you supplied above a line at a time to  
get a feel for what each bit does.


Why'd you go with width: 770px?  I was thinking my smallest likely  
monitor would be 1024, and if they had a larger monitor and could  
widen that, THEN they'd see the lighter background to either side.   
Just wondering if yours was an aesthetics decision or had some other  
code-based reason?


Also, the *html .livebar   bitthat is IE-specific, I'm getting,  
but how does one even know what to drop in there? I guess years of  
getting knuckles scraped by Explorer? Or, is there a repository of  
such things?


Thank you and the others for helping me on this problem. It's been a  
huge education!

[css-d] Zero unit for this CSS3 example: Is it needed?

2011-07-25 Thread Micky Hulse
I never specify a unit for zero values, but some of the online CSS3
tools will add units to the generated code:

http://www.colorzilla.com/gradient-editor/
http://css3generator.com/

For example:

...
background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #ffa443 0%, #ff7300 100%);
...

I assume that I can safely remove the percentage unit (%) from the
zero value, correct?

I assume that for any zero value, no matter the CSS3 context, the unit
can be omitted?

Are there any corner cases?

Thanks,
Micky

Not really. The unit identifier can only be omitted if the value is a length
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/syndata.html#length-units
[quote]
After a zero length, the unit identifier is optional.
[/quote]
or CSS3 values (editor draft):
http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-values/#ltlengthgt

If '0' is an e.g. an angle, the unit identifier is requried.

In case of your gradients example, we're talking about a color-stop, which is 
basically a length
http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-images/#color-stop-syntax
so you can omit it, I think.
