Re: [css-d] Color Contrast Disagreement

Re: [css-d] Hide current page link

more and more pages added to it over the years, and changing the
navigation on each page is becoming a chore.
I know how to do includes, I'd just like to hide the current page link..
hi Val,
Try this bit of style, which I cribbed off
http://www.askthecssguy.com/2006/12/showing_hyperlink_cues_with_cs_1.html
it needs to go in the head of the page you are on, and use that
page name for yourcurrentpage.html
style type=text/css
!--
#links a[href~=yourcurrentpage.html] {
Not sure if it's a factor for your users, but be aware that
selector will not be recognized by ie6.

Unfortunately IDs on form elements are useless in .net for styling as M$ gloms hierarchy into the label to (presumably) insure uniqueness. The cascade and the CssClass attribute are your friends. One _strong_ recommendation, please use the AssociatedControlID attribute to explicitly associate the labels with their related form inputs. Your screenreader users will be appreciative.

Safari Versions: 1.03 (OS 10.2.8) 1.3 (OS 10.3.9) 2.x (OS 10.4.x) In my experience, the rendering differences are minor. I wouldn't bother testing on anything below 1.03. One of the Safari developers has a blog: http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/hyatt/ with good information about Safari. The latest version of IE for OS 9 is 5.1.7 and is most likely the browser of choice for OS 9 users. Some OS 9 users opt for Wamcom: http://wamcom.org/ Which I believe is based on 1.3.x Mozilla, but that's a pretty small crowd at this point. -Steve -- Steve Axthelm [EMAIL PROTECTED] __ 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/
