Re: [css-d] A few question about this media query (for retina display)...

2012-07-16 Thread Micky Hulse
Hi Georg! Thanks again for the help! Much appreciated. :)

On Sun, Jul 15, 2012 at 10:24 PM, Georg gunla...@c2i.net wrote:
 IE8 and older don't support @mediaqueries with min/max arguments in any
 form, so they are shut out anyway and will need a backdoor entry or other
 workaround.

Cool! Thanks for the confirmation on this.

By backdoor entry, I assume you mean something like respond.js
and/or IE conditional style sheet that loads the desktop styles (as a
work around to the whole mobile first approach/technique)?

 The 'only' keyword will shut out IE8 if used in an @import, and @media I
 think (haven't tested), and I have unintentionally shut out some low-end
 android browsers using the 'only' keyword in an SSR stylesheet. '@media
 screen ..' will do nicely.

Interesting!

I have not heard of SSRs before... Is that SQL Server Reporting Services?

Also, I prefer having my MQs is embedded inside my CSS (i.e. not as a
part of style link in the head); based on what you (and Philippe) are
saying, it sounds like I can ditch only without any huge side
effects... Cool! :)

So, I have one more bit of code to run by ya'll... How does this look:

snip

@media
screen and (min-width: 990px) and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.5),
screen and (min-width: 990px) and (-o-min-device-pixel-ratio: 3/2),
screen and (min-width: 990px) and (min--moz-device-pixel-ratio: 1.5),
screen and (min-width: 990px) and (min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.5) { ... }

/snip

Goal of above code: Target (screen only) retina display (1.5 device
pixel ratio and above) at = 990 width.

I've tested and it appears to work... I just could not think of a
better way to make that more DRY.

Also, I opted to include the screen property(?), as I will probably
do something different for print in the long run.

Thanks again Georg!

Cheers,
Micky

I don't know, but there is a very odd mixture of markup
in your document, and it is also not at all clear to me
what role a shell script has to play in this (f you're
producing HTML, why not either an HTML editor or a text

The oddnesses are the markup are :

When you created your set on google fonts, did you make sure to check the 
'Latin Extended' checkbox?  (the default is only use the 'latin' subset)
When I do that, your test file works correctly.

 David L. reported that a certain change at a certain width, did not take
 place on his low-end phone. I had 'screen only' in query for that width,
 while only 'screen' for all other widths. I changed that one query to
 'screen' also, and the change took place.

 So ask David what version he has - I Cc'd him.

This is a stand-alone html page along the lines of

https://developers.google.com/webfonts/docs/getting_started#Quick_Start

I did choose the latin extended fonts but afterwards I thought naming
the font would be enough.

 IE 6 has 2 major problems, that I can see. 1 is that it won't draw those 
 entire widgets, and 2 is that the Content area crashes into the side menu.
 
 The widgets employ rounded corners, which I believe is HTML5 and therefore 
 unsupported by IE 6..not sure if that's it, or what causes the content to 
 crash into the side menu.
 
 Can anyone offer thoughts on that?
 
 Thank you!

 what role a shell script has to play in this (f you're

I wanted to get a list of headlines and paragraphs with selected
Google fonts. Up to my knowledge, it is not possible to do a loop in
html but it is doable in bash.

 The oddnesses are the markup are :

 1) No DOCTYPE
 2) XHTML notation / at meta ... /
 3) HTML notation  at link ... 

I fixed these and validated with the W3C validator, thanks for the reminder.

 4) Legacy notation at style ... !--

What is the up-to-date notation for an inlined style sheet?

The problem was something else, I omitted to tell the Google api to
download latin extended:

subset=latin,latin-ext

should have been used as here:

link rel=stylesheet type=text/css
href=http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Inconsolata|Pontano+Sanssubset=latin,latin-ext

[css-d] float breaks borders

  div#sidebar   { width: 120px;

1px border + 29px padding + 600px text + 20px margin-left + 120px
sidebar + 29px padding + 1px border is 800px, so in theory it works.
Or is this not the problem?
