Re: [css-d] Height question, container doesn't stretch in firefox
But for some reason the height doesnt stretch with the content in Firefox If you just let the content in #container stretch it, you can just remove height: 100% and #container would be the correct height.

Re: [css-d] new site is live...
Not that it's newsworthy, but I have re-designed my site blackcoil.com using ASP.NET 2.0, Master Pages, CSS, XHTML, and all that lovely goodness. Just a note, that new line before your DOCTYPE can potentially mess you up by putting IE in quirks mode (although this probably doesn't affect you now, it can cause a lot of mysterious trouble later on). Also, looking through the pages, I only see h1, h3, and h4. Remember that you should use h? to show the structure of your page (you can always change the font-size/margins/padding in your CSS. It may help to look at your page without the CSS and see if it looks right.

Otherwise, since there will only be one #content on a page anyway, I'd go with #content. When specifying margins of 0 width, is one or the other of the following better for any reason? margin: 12px 0 5px 0; margin: 12px 0px 5px 0px; Since 0 is unitless, I (personally) think that the extra px is a waste of space, though some people like to keep it so that they can change the value more quickly. What is the reason I see in some stylesheets for applying the same styles to both 'body' and 'html' elements? I guess I don't understand the need for the 'html'. My guess for this would be that some browsers handle the two differently (personally, I just apply styles to both to be safe).

Re: [css-d] position: relative causing positioning and display problems in class
Just some general notes first: Although it may not have to do with your problem, the whitespace before the DOCTYPE can put IE into quirks mode. Also, you might want to consider using some IDs (use IDs for things that will only appear ONCE on a page, so you'd use an ID for the wrapper/content divs or the header/footer/sidebar. For the menu, I wouldn't pay $45 (?!?) for a javascript solution (that outputs an annoying-to-style table). Instead, you might consider a CSS dropdown menu (like here: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/horizdropdowns) with some minimal javascript to get IE to work. This way, you can fully control the styling of the menu without delving into javascript code as much. (I'm sure that others on this list will have more CSS dropdown experience/suggestions).

Re: [css-d] Hello people + IE bug
the header is few-pixels-shifted when compared with the rest of the page (unless the page itself is shifted and the header is OK :-) For me, removing the background-positions on #conteneur and #top in martin.css seemed to fixed the problem. To run IE in Linux, you might consider running windows in vmware player (http://www.vmware.com/products/player/) or some sort of virtual machine. I've also heard that people have gotten IE to run in wine (http://www.winehq.org/).

Re: [css-d] minimum height proporty
im having slight difficulty with minimum height in IE. it works fine in FF and all the info i can find suggests that it shoudl work in IE.

Re: [css-d] Site feedback please :)
Would appreciate any feedback. Thanks! Just a few things: For the navigation, I'd use a display: inline; unordered list instead of a table. In your header, I'd use an h1 with hidden text (just to keep with semantics) On a aesthetic note, I'd add a right border in your faux columns (and perhaps some extra padding-right on your content). Also, add some padding-bottom in the sections in your right colum. Overall, nice simple layout (login fields stick out a bit in Opera). \ Nice forum-- this is probably a bit late, but if you want a really clean and customizable forum, take a look at PunBB (http://www.punbb.com/). CSS XHTML strict templates (that should be much easier to modify).

Re: [css-d] background image in layers.....
Is their an elegant way of specifying a different background image in a layer if the layer co-rds etc are the same, only the background image changes? If only the background image will change, you can probably make a class .landscape with all non-image styles and have an ID for each landscape with background-image: url(...); Ricky __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

Re: [css-d] wrapping text around images
I would like to create a do it yourself page that has an image (possibly two or three) per sentence/short paragraph with multiple sentences/short paragraphs per page. I would also like the text to start at the top of the image(s), possibly 1em give or take to the left. I can get this to work in tables (yuck) but can't seem to do it in css. To achieve this effect, I placed the image in a span floated to the left: span style= position: relative; float: left; width: 276px; /* width of the image */ margin: 0 1em 0 0; img src=http://www.google.com/intl/en/images/logo.gif; alt=Google style= display: block; margin: 0; padding: 0; border: 1px solid #C0C0C0; / /span To get the 1em of text before the image, just place this code after the first line of text.

Re: [css-d] Strict and Javascript
I have been trying to validate http://sesi-md.com/Temp/ without success. I am using !DOCTYPE html PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd; as my doctype and things have worked fine in the past. I went ahead and added some JavaScript to the page and now it will not validate because http://validator.w3.org is telling me that the less than sign in my for statement is not valid [ for (i = 0; i 10; i++) { ]. Also, I have to give an image a name so that I can address it, and that is not validating either. I'm not completely sure about this, but you might have to surround your script with: script type=text/javascript ![CDATA[ ... script ... ]] /script To ensure that it's ignored by the validator. Also, I'm pretty sure that you can access an element by it's ID with getElementByID or something (I'm not very familiar with javascript).

Re: [css-d] Two pixel gap under flash in Firefox
Changing the font-size does not seem to do anything for me here. However, when I set the line-height it actually makes the div bar below disappear. Sorry-- I may have been unclear about what to set those attributes on. If you set font-size: 0; line-height: 0; on the container div, the gap should disappear. Here's how my altered code looks: div id=flashintro style= background: red; line-height: 0; font-size: 0; object type=application/x-shockwave-flash data=whoclicked-ad.swf width=800 height=180 param name=movie value=whoclicked-ad.swf / /object /div div style= background-color: #006600; height: 2px; img src=images/sp.gif width=1 height=1 / /div Hope this works, Ricky __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

Re: [css-d] Two pixel gap under flash in Firefox
I have a flash swf movie that when viewed in IE there is no gap between the flash movie and the div below.
