 IE and Mozilla have now committed to supporting -webkit- prefixed
 properties.
 
 The obvious problem is that the W3C is too slow and cumbersome for many
 people's desires and expectations of the web. IE6 came with a suite of
 incredibly powerful functionality that the rest of browser-land is only now
 catching up to (filter: anyone?). The problem then was that some of the
 earliest webapps were designed specifically for IE, back when there was no
 conceivable way of forking the code to achieve similar functionality in
 other browsers. VML was submitted 2 years before SVG started taking
 shape. IE6's lofty goals were almost reinstated in the HTML5 in the
 broadest sense that the W3 tried to make a PR splash about (embedded
 multimedia, file-system API, seamless vector graphics in HTML, CSS3
 transforms  filters). But once again, people have come to expect awesome
 stuff that the W3C is too slow to ratify to a universal consensus.
 
 So the responsibility (which, I agree, ultimately rests on website authors)
 comes down to managing expectations. It's tough to say no, especially when
 there's a lot of money in it and many people in the trade of web
 development are inclined to exploratory hacking anyway. It's becoming
 increasingly more difficult to tell people you can't, in good conscience,
 serve up code relying on unratified specifications, when implementation of
 such functionality is ubiquitous (and you know how to do it). A few years
 ago web development studios started finding the willpower to tell clients
 they wouldn't commit to like-for-like experiences in legacy Internet
 Explorer versions, and for a while standards-compliance seemed to be that
 bit more tenable – but recently I've come across numerous situations where
 people will say they only care about Chrome  iOS support.
 
 As regards the 'reasonableness' of these various expectations, I think W3C
 compliant validity is at its most applicable when it comes to web sites
 consisting of many documents: you want these documents to be consistent
 with each-other and marked up to universal standards for reasons of
 posterity  universal access. For my part, what I've been working on for
 the better part of the last year would be more accurately described as web
 apps: there's a single HTML document and it acts more as a wrapper for
 dynamic functionality. The term 'document' barely applies, and the
 use-cases are so esoteric and business-critical that the client will
 happily use a specific browser version in order to guarantee expected
 behaviour.

A clickable link to the page in question would provide us place to start to 
provide the help you seek.


It would also be helpful to know in what browsers you're trying to view the 
page and and what Operating systems. (ie win xp pro etc)


As an aside, it's also helpful to provide a subject in the subject line. 
(ie. page doesn't work in some browsers)  It helps keep the archives 
straight.

I'm playing around with CSS3 form elements, which are really rather
delightful (don't you wish that IE6 and 7 would creep off into a corner and
quietly die)

 

I want to have a visible indicator that a field is valid or invalid (easy
enough) as follows:

CSS:

  style 

  input:valid + span::after { content: \2713 }

  input:invalid + span::after { content: \2717 }

  /style

HTML:

  form 

  plabelName: input required name=name
placeholder=name (required)span//label/p 

   plabelE-mail: input type=email required name=email
placeholder=email (required)span//label/p 

   plabelcolour: input type=color required name=color
placeholder=color (required)span//label/p 

   plabelURL: input type=url name=url
placeholder=urlspan//label/p 

   plabelComment: textarea required
name=comment/textareaspan//label/p 

   pinput type=submit value=Do it/p 

  /form

 

This puts a tick after valid input fields, and a cross after invalid ones.
But I want neither after empty fields.  I have tried all sorts of variants
on

 

input[value=] + span::after {content:}

 

but to no avail.  It would appear that Firefox and Chrome both evaluate the
value= only on load, and not after the field has changed.  Anyone got any
suggestions?

Hi Woodie,
Maybe the 63 validation errors in your HTML or the 38 validation errors in your 
CSS have something to do with it. Try working on fixing those first. Maybe one 
of them is causing your problem.

It's because you have left: 2em; on #nav (and it does overlap in mac 
ff/3.5.7.



In your style sheet, delete these:
/*style type=text/css*/
/*#container-head */
/*/style*/


Amend this selector:
#nav {
position: absolute;
left: /*2em delete*/  0;
top: 135px; width: 1em; 
padding:0;
margin: -1px 0 0 -1px;
font: 1em verdana, arial, sans-serif;
text-align: left;
color: #ff; }   







 Also, although I've read just about every sticky-footer explanation I can 
 find, when I try to implement the fixes, they don't work as evidenced at the 
 site. Seeking any advice on what I am missing. 
   



Validate the markup and css and bring it back to the list.

I'm guessing that you are seeing gaps underneath the images? If so, try 
one of these:

img { vertical-align: bottom; }
- or -
img { display: block; }

Explanation: Images are inline elements, intended to display on the same 
line as text. (Imagine PI symbols as images.) As such, they line up with 
the baseline of text, with room underneath for descenders (the hooks 
under p, q, etc.)

Cordially,
David

Setting the 'white-space' property to 'no-wrap' takes care of
eliminating word wrap in each separate element. As for eliminating
whitespace in between the divs, I still got nothing.

Thanks! That works fairly well. I'm curious, what do !ie and the
zoom property do?) It works perfectly in Firefox, but in IE and
Safari, there's some quirk involving vertical alignment.

!ie is a CSS filter used to target the MSIE family of browsers and zoom 
is a Microsoft proprietary syntax commonly used (as in this case) to 
ensure an element 'hasLayout' for IE. The !ie in this case is 
unnecessary as no other browser recognizes it, but I use it to quickly 
find IE-only rules when separating my style block out into external 
(conditional comment filtered) style sheets.

Changing the second rule to:
.table-row-ish div
{
   display:inline-block;
   vertical-align: bottom;
   display:inline !ie;
   zoom:   1  !ie;
}
...should help with the vertical alignment issues.

I want to make a page that has a series of photos with text next to 
them (photos on the left, text on the right). I want the text that 
goes with each photo centered vertically to the photo and I want 
space between the photo and the text which should line up with the 
horizontal center of the page.

I know how to do this easily using tables, but I want to do it with 
CSS. Can anyone steer me to a tutorial, or perhaps a page set up as 
I've described that I can use as a guide?

Hello -
 
I was wondering if anyone has tripped over this... I do believe it's a CSS
issue, but included jquery details as that is what I'm using to change
display properties.  
 
I'm using jquery and the tablesorter plug-in (along with a tablesorter
updated module to accomodate child rows -
http://www.pengoworks.com/workshop/jquery/tablesorter/jquery.tablesorter.mod
.js) to sort my db table. The collapsible rows have a 'extend-child' class
which attaches them to the 'parent' row for sorting purposes. When a certain
cell is clicked on the parent, the child row is displayed (the jquery goes
and sets display to block).
 
The child rows are set to display:none initially, and when the associated
parent cell (tagged w/ a class of 'collapsible') is clicked, the child row
displays. The jquery stuff works great, but it's the display I have a
question about (so I came here)... Some of my actual db table rows have
cells which vary in height. When I try to display them, with the child row
below them (my particular app only has one child row/parent) the cells are
unequal (I draw a border around the cells which makes it really obvious). Is
there any way for me to display the parent row with equal height cells while
the child row is set to display none? I'm seeing it in all of the browsers
I've looked at - ff, ie, opera. Because the cell heights will vary, I have
no way of really knowing a height or min-height to specify.
 
I've doctored up the jquery tablesort demo/doc file (with the child row mod
update) to show the problem (there's alot of overhead in butchering the
actual app for you to see it..). The unequal rows don't really look that bad
in this example, but do in my actual application - and the demo does show
the problem.

Re: [css-d] (no subject) table cells

2008-06-13 Thread Nancy E. Sosna Bohm
 From: E McMahon [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 Is there any way for me to display the parent row with equal height cells
while
 the child row is set to display none? 
 http://thequarrygroup.com/table_row_alignment/tablesorter1.htm

Unless I'm misunderstanding the problem, this is an html issue, not css or
javascript.
The first two cells in each table row have a rowspan of 2, but the rest of
the cells in the row only span one row, so they are shorter than the first 2
cells of the row.
For example:
tr
td rowspan=2 class=collapsible
/td
td rowspan=2 class=collapsible_alt
a href=javascript:alert('Order #
SO71778')SO71778/a
/td
td
Purchase Mart
/td
td
PO19894146890
/td
td
Apr 18, 2007
/td
td
$1,503.98
/td
/tr
But from the looks of the behavior of the cell with 2 lines, it seems you
could just add br /nbsp; to the contents of each of the short cells so as
not to disturb whatever function is dependent upon them not being set to
span 2 rows.
I didn't look at the javascript code.

Hope that helps,
Nancy

Hi,

The problem is related to the rowspan of the td element. Since the tr 
below that needs to be expanded is still there, and only the td 
elements are hidden, this effect appears.

Best would be to only add the rowspan via Javascript when the actual 
expansion occurs.

Some additional thoughts. Your jQuery module cannot interpret the 
rowspan correctly, since it seems to be built for simple rows without 
rowspan, and so you get the related effect. Either drop the rowspan and 
just indent the 2nd row with an additional td and colspan, or try 
adapting the jQuery script to only add the rowspan when the columns 
below get expanded.

There are some more different ways using css hacks, which exploits 
browser bugs, just like the example above:

#element {
min-height:500px;
}
* html #element
height:500px;
}

Alternativly you could use Conditional comments, which define a seperate 
stylesheet for modifications that you use for a specific IE Version.
http://www.quirksmode.org/css/condcom.html

Before you resort to either hacks or conditional comments, be aware to 
use them scarcly! Normaly you should not have to rely on either. Check 
your layout before and see if you can make it with markup that does not 
server either.

element {min-height: 200px; _height: 200px;}

...will make IE6 /behave/ as if it supported 'min-height'. That's
because IE6 (and older) has an auto-expansion bug that works in our
favor in cases like this.
The leading underscore is one way to make IE6 (and older) read
properties/values that the other browser will ignore. Any other
method/hack to serve that 'height: some-value' only to IE6 (and older)
can of course be used instead.

 I've been going made trying to centre my page.
 I'm trying to avoid using tables for positioning
 and have created divisions that I've put in place
 using absolute measurements.

 With a previous website I've simply used
 text-align:center in the body part and that seemed
 to work.  With pure divisions, IE will recognize
 my centering but not Firefox and presumably not
 some of the other browsers as well.

 Any ideas?  My site is going to measure up to 800
 x 600 although I'm thinking of making it 1024 x
 600.

 This problem has probably been discussed time and
 time again, so sorry in advance that I missed the
 previous discussions.

 Cheers,


I found this article and a forum thread that helped me when I was
trying to figure out the magic to make a page center in CSS.  Others
may know a wiser path than, I, however.  :)

Hi Theresa,
This article should help:
http://www.boutell.com/newfaq/creating/centervertically.html
For browsers other than IE7, you should be able to set the display of  
the parent element (#nav) to 'display: table;', and then the display  
and vertical-align of the target element (div.list-menu)to 'display:  
table-cell; vertical-align: middle;'. You might then need a  
conditional comment in the head if this messes things up in IE7.

2008-01-31 Thread Kenoli Oleari
I am trying to create using CSS to make a page that looks like this:

http://sfnan.org/iotc/templates-php/pie_1.php

This page is a series of divs positioned somewhat like a checker  
board.  This page is created by CSS using absolute positioning within  
a div that is positioned relatively.

For various reasons, I am interested in assembling the checkerboard  
divs using something besides position:absolute.  I just can't make it  
work.  Each rectangle is a separate div, some with background  
pictures and some with text.  I'm not sure how to do this.  I can get  
the first and second to line up floating the first to the left and  
clearing the second to the right.  When I try to so this with  
additional divs, they seem to take on a life of their own, ending up  
in odd positions around the page or off the page.

I have a few questions.  If I want to line up a series of divs, do I  
make each one float:left and clear:right?  If I want to start a new  
row, do I designate float: left, clear: both?  This seems logical,  
but I can't get it to work.

If I understand it right, position:relative lets me put the div in  
standard html sequence but indicate an offset using top and side  
positioning.  This doesn't seem to work the way I would expect it to  
work.

Please help me understand how to do what I am trying to do.

It may be possible to use floats to achieve your objective.

Here is a link to a demo using floats:
http://www.jimdavis.org/test/checkerboard.html

This uses two floats, one that is 16em wide by 8em high, and a blank that is
8em square. The image within the wide float is floated left and is given a
class to set the width and height of the image to 8em by 8em. This makes
sure the image is sized to fit the containing element and allows the image
to change size when the user re-sizes the text in the browser.

I have only tested this on a PC with FF and IE7, so not sure of results in
other browsers and OS's.

 For various reasons, I am interested in assembling the checkerboard
 divs using something besides position:absolute

From what I can see it appears to be the 6em width in your  #nav li 
selector...

#nav li {styles.css (line 119)
float:left;
padding:0.25em;
width:6em;
} 

Change that width value to auto, or remove it entirely, and you may get the
results you want!

Yes indeed the clicks are trashing your layout, specifically a:visited 
is doing you in ;)
In your stylesheet when you're declaring your link rules you 
consistently drop part of the specificity for the :visited pseudo class...

#menu a:link, a:visited {  --- you'd want that second part to read 
#menu a:visited
color: #ff;
text-decoration: none;
text-align: right;
}

This mistake is repeated several times down the page, meaning that 
cumulatively you're applying a lot of styles to ALL your :visited links.

Hi Juliann,

I'm not sure why you would want to make so many different stylesheets in the 
first place, since you can make an almost 100% accurate stylesheet with one 
file to cover all browsers, but that's a different thing.

Anyway... I think your css is in the wrong directory...
You're using relative URLs. The css you're calling should be in 
www.pcg-advisors.com/new/theteam. It is in www.pcg-advisors.com/new

2007-10-16 Thread Tracy Shorrock
Hi,

Okay, here goes! I want to achieve this layout 
freelancealot.co.uk/test/Retreat_Wellness_Centre.jpg

Which would be easy if I were going for a fixed-width layout, however I 
want the layout to be full-width (100%), also easy enough, but then I 
want the left-col and right-col to be liquid and the centre col fixed 
to the width of the picture and it's border. Am I being too optimistic 
here... or maybe missing an obvious solution to the layout requirement. 
 From the point of SEO, I'd like the left-col and right-col to appear 
first, if possible - I'm thinking of the markup looking similar to 
below:


div id=container

div id=content
div id=left-col text /div -- liquid
div id=right-col text /div -- liquid
/div

div id=centre-col main image /div -- fixed-width (max-width?)

div id=footer ...
div id=left-footer /div
div id=right-footer /div
/div
/div

Any help/pointers much appreciated - I seem to be having a brain freeze 
on this one.

Thanks,

Tracy

Susan said, suitably:

 In the example you gave of your header, there's a style close  
 without an
 open that may be causing your issue - you didn't say the actual  
 invalid
 message though, so I can't be sure that's what you're speaking of.

 --/style


Susan, thanks,

Here's the entire two messages:



Error Line 17 column 0: character data is not allowed here.
--/style
You have used character data somewhere it is not permitted to appear.  
Mistakes that can cause this error include putting text directly in  
the body of the document without wrapping it in a container element  
(such as a paragraph/p) or forgetting to quote an attribute value  
(where characters such as % and / are common, but cannot appear  
without surrounding quotes).
✉
Error Line 17 column 10: end tag for element STYLE which is not open.
--/style
The Validator found an end tag for the above element, but that  
element is not currently open. This is often caused by a leftover end  
tag from an element that was removed during editing, or by an  
implicitly closed element (if you have an error related to an element  
being used where it is not allowed, this is almost certainly the  
case). In the latter case this error will disappear as soon as you  
fix the original problem.

Also, are my conditional comment links done correctly? My first time  
at those...

Thank you for your assistance!

No... but if the box you're bordering is fixed-width, you can combine a 
full-width background that contains the two side rails with

Hi Jeffrey.
In principle: Yes... (even in IE, even liquid):

* 
http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/liquidcorners/liquid-corners-playgarden-08a.htm

... but the results will depend of the image you want to show. For a 
liquid design the (background repeated) images must be able to slide 
without shifting a part of the img. Maybe there are problems with the 
image you intend (and maybe also a solution for that). If problems, do 
you have a link to the img or to a testpage?

Hello,

Another problem. I'm implementing a css custom corners and border box with 
multiple divs inside the main box div. I want it to be expandible both by 
width and height. So the problem is that whan I don't specify float:right 
for the divs of right corners, they stick to the left corners and content 
div takes just the text widths. But when I specify float:right for the right 
corners they take their pace at the box, but the box expands automaticlly at 
100% of available width. So the question is how to make the box (using the 
dloats of it's inside divs) take just th elength of text inside?

Hi Julia,
Indeed, often floats are floating away. :-)
Some solutions without floating (instead of floats: with background 
positioning of the custom corners  borders) you can find over here:

* Liquid Round Corners
  http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/liquidcorners/liquidcorners.htm
* One of the illustrations, maybe in the direction you´re searching:
  More Round Corners
  
http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/liquidcorners/more-rounded-corners_step1.htm

If you don´t find what you are looking for, do you have a link to a

Hi CSSers,

Anyone know of a way to make a read only input element blend  
perfectly in to the background in Safari? Renders properly in  
Firefox. See: Tour Date field above calendar at:

Alright Tim,

I had a look, I take it's the input for the total price down at the 
bottom you're asking about?
Anyway if so, try this to reset the styles for that one input:

#total, #total:hover { color: #4a0400; border: 0; background: transparent; }

Should work for most browsers but I only tested it in FF2 on PC. I'll 
check it in the rest of my browsers if you decide to implement it.

Depends on whether you want a page which basically doesn't tell visitors
anything without full Javascript, CSS and image support, or if you want
a page that (at least has a chance to) tell all visitors what this is
all about - regardless of support. That's _your_ decision to make.

If you want to check how much (or how little) information your page
provides at a basic level at the moment, then you should open up your
site to 'Lynxview'...
http://www.delorie.com/web/lynxview.html
...and run it through there.
I can't do that, but I have already checked it in the real thing - Lynx,
and it doesn't tell me much about the sculptures at the moment.


Suggestion:

You already have a list (of thumbnails), so you can add pretty
informative captions to each picture. Then you can show them, hide
them (preferably with an 'off-screen' method) or position them one by
one relative to the big picture, as the design requires and support
allows for. The page will look the same and behave as you intend,
but it will be a lot more informative on all levels.

I can't do much with Javascript yet, so I can't tell you how to swap a
caption on click. I know how to swap during :hover with CSS, but that's
not good enough for what you've got there - it just tells me that it
should not be too hard to achieve.
Anyway, a well thought out mix of html, css and javascript should give
you a pretty well-working, accessible and informative page for all visitors.

regards
Georg

Hello,

First of all - thank you again Georg for your help in getting this far.

As I said the other day, I've been asked to redo this flash site,  
keeping it as close to the original as possible.

http://www.stephenporterstudio.com

in HTML. I'm doing just two pages for now - the opening page and the  
first gallery page.

http://www.stephenporterstudio.com/html/

http://www.stephenporterstudio.com/html/stainless.html

I've almost got both pages now - the biggest item I have left if  
getting the captions to change under the big picture on the stainless  
page as  a new image is brought up by a click on the table to the left.

So - if anyone has a suggestion of an elegant way to get that done,  
I'd love to hear it. I am hoping that there's a nicer way to do this  
than setting up 8 hidden tables that get swapped during the click.

And - any other criticism at all would be great. If that's an  
inappropriate request - my apologies.

thanks,

Hugo

Javascript (OT for this list) would let you change specific elements via 
DOM.

It's not elegant, and it would require (for accessibility) either a 
detailed alt tag or a page for the longdesc img option in the code, but 
you could add a white border to the big images themselves and include 
the caption as part of the image.

All,

I have the following Javascript code which is generating a DIV and attempting 
to style it a certain way.

The content comes up, but I can't get the positioning to work at all.  I've 
tried several different approaches (absolute w/offsets, etc.).

Does Element.setAttribute() work in IE?  Do I need to address the attributes 
differently perhaps?

Thanks,
Wes



newDiv = popup.document.createElement('div');
newDiv.setAttribute('id', 'pdf');
newDiv.setAttribute('style', 'margin-top: 250px; text-align: center;');
newDiv.innerHTML = 'Please wait while your forms are 
generatedBR/BR/IMG src=' + wait_image_url + '/';
popup.document.body.appendChild(newDiv);

I'd do it like this:

newDiv.style.marginTop = '250px';
newDiv.style.textAlign = 'center';

This isn't a JS list, but if you're bothering to create the DIV using 
correct DOM functionality then I'd create the contents that way too, 
rather than using innerHTML.

== On-topic ==
I'd also make the img a block level element rather than using br 
elements, but that's just how I roll. ;)

It is an option. I'd do a

#pdf {margin-top: 250px; text-align: center;}

in the CSS file :-)

If #pdf normally has other styles you can also add a class with

newDiv.className = 'pop';

and set the CSS accordingly. Whenever you get the chance to let the
CSS parser do the work for you, do it.

2006-08-30 Thread Poyner, Matt
I have a problem that I'm not sure how to solve. I am attempting to
create tabs with a small corner cutout. I know hot to place the small
corner image and get the rollover colors to work, etc. 

 

The problem I'm having is that the 1px border I need on the top, left,
and right of each tab is showing around the image, so I turned border
off and am looking for a solution to create the borders I need.

 

Is there a way to specify a length for a border? For instance, if my
tabs are 30px wide and 20px high, and my corner image is 5px square, can
I specify the top border to only be 25px in length, and my right border
to be 15px high?

 

If not, is there a workaround for this?

 

Thanks for any help you can give.

 

 

My current code:

 

#newsTabs ul{

   list-style-type: none;

   margin: 0;

   padding-bottom: 24px;

   font: bold 9px Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

It looks great in Firefox, but in Internet Explorer many of the boxes
  are placed in the wrong place.

Looks great :-) but not very usable.
You should try to use those pages in Lynx - especially the front page,
and add all the missing pieces (alt-attributes - with suitable content)
that the W3C (X)HTML validator mentions as errors.

***
What is Lynx?  What will that achieve?
***

If you clock on who on the left nav you can see 4 different pages:

Each of these pages has a heading above the content in a teal all caps 
font. Even though the placement of this box that holds this type
  is the same on each of these pages you can see in IE how it jumps around 
and is different on each one of these pages.

Defaults are not identical across browser-land, so you'll have to set
margins and line-height and what-not as you like it to turn out.

***
It makes sense that defaults are not identical across browserland.  But the 
4 different pages mentioned above all have the same layout and same code.  
It doesn't make sense, why a SINGLE  browser (ie Internet Explorer alone) 
would display each of these pages differently.
***



ALSO, my rollovers for the left nav do not work in IE, but they work fine

Have a feeling that those effects are javascript-driven, so
off-topic here on css-d.

 It looks great in Firefox, but in Internet Explorer many of the 
 boxes are placed in the wrong place.
 
 
 Looks great :-) but not very usable. You should try to use those 
 pages in Lynx - especially the front page, and add all the missing 
 pieces (alt-attributes - with suitable content) that the W3C 
 (X)HTML validator mentions as errors.

 What is Lynx?  What will  that achieve?

Lynx is a browser, and it will tell if your pages/sites are constructed
in such a way that they _can be used_ at the most basic level, which is
a must when it comes to usability - and anything else in web design.

No pages/sites can be made to work with css and/or javascript - only
make them look and work better once the basics are in place.
If the basics are missing, then we're only painting the dead with all
the other stuff. That's what you have done, IMO.

You can test _your_ pages/sites in Lynxview...
http://www.delorie.com/web/lynxview.html
...and there you will find where to download the browser also - in case
you need it.

 If you clock on who on the left nav you can see 4 different 
 pages:
 
 
 Each of these pages has a heading above the content in a teal all
  caps font. Even though the placement of this box that holds this
  type is the same on each of these pages you can see in IE how it
  jumps around and is different on each one of these pages.
 
 
 Defaults are not identical across browser-land, so you'll have to 
 set margins and line-height and what-not as you like it to turn 
 out.
 
 It makes sense that defaults are not identical across browserland. 
 But the 4 different pages mentioned above all have the same layout 
 and same code. It doesn't make sense, why a SINGLE  browser (ie 
 Internet Explorer alone) would display each of these pages 
 differently.


Parts of IE's default is to ignore dimensions and calculate line-height
in its own unique way. I know only too well that it doesn't make sense,
but there isn't all that much that makes sense in IE.

Now, you have not applied /complete styles/ to the elements you have
problems with. Try doing that first, and we'll help you if any senseless
bugs are still disturbing it - in IE.

Still no way to make it work in _my_ Firefox, Opera or IE, since you
have locked all (existing) text inside fix sized containers.
Result: parts of the text is hidden from view, so I *have to* use Lynx
(or rather Opera's user-styles) to be able to read what it says...

Georg

I'm using a 3-column layout on our new site. To avoid the dreaded
'dropped column' problem in IE where if the total column widths are
greater than the width of the browser, one or more of the column DIVs
will jump down the page, I've set any element in the center column that
may be too wide to get wrapped in a div set to 100% and to have
overflow-scroll set on it:

http://www.mncourts.gov/district/2/?page=60

This works fairly well in both IE and Firefox.

However, in Firefox, the scrollbar will appear and disappear no matter
the specific width of the browser.

For instance, at 600px, 610px, and 615px, you may see the scrollbar, but
at 605px, 611px and 614px, it comes back.

I assume that this is some sort of rounding issue in Firefox? Any fix
for this?

2006-07-03 Thread Simon Kerr

Hi all. I've been trying to think of a way to make a nice fluid layout. 
My page consists of three content areas that are inline. Behind them is 
a background image (www.i4cevents.com). When the browser is resized, 
the content areas should move and the background image should shrink or 
enlarge. So far, this works quite nicely in ff and opera, but the 
background image is not displaying correctly in safari. Any idea why?

The relevant html is:

body
div id=background
   div class=headerimg src=images/i4cLogo.jpg alt=i4c Events 
Logo //div
   !--class sets the bg image with two drop shadows--
   div class=bgImage
 div class=topDropShadow/div
 div class=bottomDropShadow/div
   /div
/div
...


and the css is for the background and bg Image is:

body{
position:absolute;
margin:0;
padding:0;
height:90%;
width:99%;
font: 62.5% verdana, sans-serif;
max-width:990px;
max-height:600px;
min-height:450px;
border:2px solid #afafaf;
border-bottom:none;
}
#background{
position:relative;
top:0;
height:100%;
width:100%;
z-index:1;
}
.header{
position:relative;
height:60px;
width:100%;
}
.bgImage{
position:relative;
top:0;
background:url('../images/indexRally.jpg') top left no-repeat fixed;
height:65%;
width:100%;
}

I think it might be to do with the fact that the body is absolutely 
positioned. Can anyone confirm this and suggest an improvement? Thanks 
a lot.

Hi Simon,
I'm afraid I have no experience with Safari, but I noticed (under 
Win98SE at 800x600 resolution) IE is dropping down; screenshot here 
http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/css-discuss/images/screenshot-i4cevents-IE.jpg.
At 1024x768 with a history or other sidebar turned on: also IE downwards...

Safari 2.0.3 seems to match firefox 1.5.0.x.  What version of Safari

Safari does not seem to be the problem. OTOH, all versions of IE /may/ 
be problematic(with or without a sidebar).

Hi,

Having a tough time sorting out what I believe to be a box model  
issue with IE6.

The template I'm building looks as it should in Firefox, but in IE6  
its adding roughly 90px on the right causing it to not 'truly' be  
centered.

I am centering a fixed width container (895px) within the browser  
window and the extra 90px is getting added to the right of the  
container (I've outlined it with a 1px lime rule). I'm using the  
centering with auto margin method.

I've been through a variety of sites looking for wisdom but I'm  
afraid I've been staring at it too long to see clearly.

Any suggestions as to what the culprit may be would be MOST appreciated.

My working html template is here (validated):
http://tinyurl.com/qhm58

I'm modularizing my CSS into separate files for this project.
The relevant CSS files for this page are here:

Many thanks for taking a look.

Hi All,

I have recently built my first CSS-dependent website. When it is rendered 
by MSIE it looks good; however, when rendered by Netscape it completely 
breaks down.

Does anyone have any ideas how I could hack the CSS styling to make it work 
in Netscape. I never viewed the site in any of the other browsers (Mozilla, 
Firefox, Opera etc.).

The site location is: www.stmatthias.net/knights

The CSS style sheet is located at: www.stmatthias.net/knights/stmatthias.css


Thanks for your help.
