[css-d] Site check www.ukagriculture.com
Hi All, I have updated our agriculture site to css standard. www.ukagriculture.com All seems well on different browsers (browsershots.org) but would interested to hear peoples opinions on the site so far, fonts sizes etc being a particular issue as the spec seems to change day-by-day. Many thanks in advance.

Re: [css-d] Site check www.ukagriculture.com
Many thanks for everyone's comments. I was a bit taken back with the page encoding error on HTML validation (sure I've never seen it before), seems I have fix for it though. I guess on the other errors, ie duplicate div names (didn't think this was an issue) I will have to make classes instead. Here we go again :0) Cheers Still learining Trev http://www.tboult.co.uk __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
[css-d] Image breakout at bottom Div
Hi All, Brian Cummiskey pointed out to me the other day on this page: http://www.tboult.co.uk/dev/ag/crops/wheat.cfm That the image was breaking out of its div at the bottom. Brian suggested a clear both block element which I have just implemented and its OK in FireFox but not IE (Arrrgh) You will see in IE the div now spans accross the whole page. Any ideas as to how I can get the page to display correctly would be great.

[css-d] Image not display in IE when float style applied.
Hi All, I have another of those nigglies with IE and Firefox. http://www.tboult.co.uk/dev/ag/ The thumbnails in the center column display in Firefox but not in IE. I have had a play with z-index's and google but no joy. I did notice if I took the float: left out of the style it will appear. Any ideas as yet again I'm at a loss?

Re: [css-d] 3 column fluid, header and footer - the best layout
Hi All, Well, in the best tradition of doing your first liquid layout, I've junked my previous versions and now have a new issue. I'm 99% there for what I need and now have one small bug in IE and not Firefox when floating an image to the right. If you compare this page: http://www.tboult.co.uk/dev/ag/countryside/woodland_ecosystem.cfm in IE/Firefox. I have firefox v1.5.0.4 and IE v6.0.2800.116 You will see my container div in IE extends all the way over to the left when floatright is applied to images in the container. Its all ok in Firefox. Any ideas as how I can correct this issue in IE? I'm at a loss, have been trying all afternoon :0( Cheers everyone.

IE apparently has a problem clearing floats, and expands the margins of the containing divs. If you put it outside the p, you can probably get away w/ removing the clearright class from the p tags, too. You can/should move those styles to your style sheet, of course...

[css-d] 3 column fluid, header and footer - the best layout
Hi All, I'm currently re-designing my Agriculture site (http://www.ukagriculture.com) and wanted to know what is regarded as the best fluid 3 column, header and footer layout. I seem to be in-undated with choices and can't work out which is the best option. My dev pages are here http://www.tboult.co.uk/dev/ag/ I seem to have issues with my current choice regarding the header not being consitent in IE and Firefox. This impacts the menu (DHTML menu builder) on the countryside page linked from the index page (the only link currently working). I have left a 1px border on the top div to see the difference. Any suggestions would be fantastic.

[css-d] was Paragraphs and floats, now bulleted list.
Hi All, Thanks to those that posted the solution for paragraphs clearing to a new line from a previous paragraph. clear:both; But I still had the problem of text wrapping around the little icons I had for each paragraph. I tried loads of things, nowrap, div containers etc., but nothing worked in an efficient way. Then I had an idea of using a liul tags to create the effect I was after. Could you kind peeps please check out the below site and check this is okay on different browsers (browsershots takes ages) before I implement it throughout our countryside history pages. temp page http://www.tboult.co.uk/temp/temp.html main css for the paragraphs http://www.tboult.co.uk/temp/paragraphs.css Cheers everyone Trevor http://www.tboult.co.uk __ 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] was Paragraphs and floats, now bulleted list.
Cheers for the tips David. I should have pointed out the code sample is
copied out from the original page, hence no doc type.
I'll see if the changes makes a difference to the font sizes.
Cheers

Trevor, whether any of the below stuff corrects the problem of the text
overlapping the images at text size 'smaller' and 'smallest' in
XP_SP/IE6.0, remains to be seen, nevertheless:
--You have no doctype. Tidy Online http://infohound.net/tidy/ will
assign one for you and correct the mark-up errors so that the html will
validate.
-- You have no background-color assigned: consequently, your page is
black on fuchsia in my machine
-- Validate the css (you ignore most of the warnings except for the one
above)
-- Computers have a difficult time setting fonts, period. Your unserifed
justified and letter-spaced content text is a typographic nightmare.
Text-align: left; with no letter-spacing and line-height expressed as a
raw number will do just fine.
--In coutryside_history.css consider re-setting:
body {font-family:'Verdana','luxi sans','Arial','sans serif';}
to:
body { font: 200 100.01%/1.2 'Lucida Grande', 'Nimbus Sans', 'Luxi
Sans', Arial, sans-serif; }
and changing this:
p {
/* font-size: 0.8em;
font-weight: normal;
letter-spacing: 0.2mm;
font-style: normal;
font-variant: normal;
text-align: justify;
line-height: 1.6em;*/
margin-top: 0.7em;
margin-bottom: 0.7em;
}
Best,
~dL

[css-d] background image in layers.....
Hi All,
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?
snip.
#landscape2
{
background:#ffE6B5 url(../images/web_design_base.jpg) no-repeat bottom;
position:relative;
left:1.9em;
top:9em;
width:71.7em;
height:32.2em;
z-index:12;
}
#landscape9
{
background:#ffE6B5 url(../images/web_design_base2.jpg) no-repeat bottom;
position:relative;
left:1.9em;
top:9em;
width:71.7em;
height:32.2em;
z-index:12;
}
etc etc
snip...
I have about 20-30 entries with this layer just because it has a different
backgound image.
TIA
