 Greetings to all,
 
 I can't figure out why a webpage as simple as [2] renders text with
 uniform size in desktop browsers (which I would expect), but like this
 [1] in Android browsers such as Chrome, Firefox and (the main version
 of) Opera. I mean... both P and TD are given font-size: medium! Isn't
 this a violation of CSS standards? I have (rather empirically) found
 that adding the line meta name=viewport
 content=width=device-width fixes the issue, though I thought this
 meta tag was meant to make the value of width more predictable under
 media queries.
 
 Is this font boosting/inflation? If so, how is this not violating CSS 
 standards?
 
 Thanks in advance for your advice.

 Same thing with the border. The 1px border on that image makes it 2px wider
 and taller than 100%.


If you really need to have that 100% width and the padding on that
element, either adjust the width down so the padding and border don't
make it larger than 100%, or use box-sizing: border-box; so that the
width stays what you want it to regardless of padding.  Be sure to
check browser support and add any vendor prefixes needed!

Re: [css-d] child width exceeding parents' ?!

2014-03-10 Thread Greg Gamble
Looks like the H4 header is styled, not the container, which is getting a width 
of 998px.  

980px width + 16px from padding + 2px from border?

at this page the bar that says new clothes at doubletake is set to 
max-width:980px and width: 100%, yet it exceeds the width of it's parent which 
is 980

how can this be?

Thanks for clues!

Re: [css-d] child width exceeding parents' ?!

2014-03-10 Thread Eric
Just to be the contrarian that my family and friends often say I am...Let me add
this to the thread:

It's been a long while since I've even thought about the convoluted math that
needs to be done when using the counter-intuitive W3C box model. These days I
just add this to the top of all my stylesheets and off I go -

* { -moz-box-sizing: border-box;
 box-sizing: border-box; }

A few years ago I read some place that the W3C box model came down to a decision
by a single member. I don't know if that's true or not but I'd like to get some
history on the topic.

 This has a good explanation of what it's for.

Thanks, Tom. Still, the word font cannot be found in that article,
and I again feel font size in particular is not supposed to be
affected by this meta tag. Besides, I'm still puzzled by the way
modern browsers consistently font-size declarations in the absence of
the meta viewport tag.

Maybe this? Although you mention FF...

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/text-size-adjust

I use -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;

Feel? Incongruent with something (what?) would seem more appropriate. Case in 
point?
