[css-d] Egg timer flicker in ie6 on hover

2008-04-28 Thread Dermot Ward
Alan,

Thanks  very much for your comments.

That fix banishes the egg timer thing completely on my page.

I'm still fiddling around a bit with spans and if I get lucky with a css 
fix I'll let you know.

I'm constantly amazed at all the people here like yourself and Mark who 
take so much time
and effort to help solve other people's  problems.

I've said this before, but hopefully some day I'll know enough to be 
able to make a few
helpful suggestions to some tormented soul  in my own turn.

Thanks lads.

Regards,
Dermot.

Dermot.

I'm sorry I didn't get round to answering your previous comment and I'm really 
pleased to see that you have a fix from Mark.

I had previously Googled for an answer as well, but obviously didn't choose the 
right keywords. :-(

What's a bit strange is that the problem that you had with flicker wasn't 
nearly so apparent as it is in the example given in the 'fix' article, and even 
applying the 'fix' I still get the egg-timer, but very briefly. In fact I don't 
think most users would complain about it, as it's so short in time.

Perhaps we are searching for two different bug fixes?

It would be good if we could find a CSS only fix.

Regards, 
 
Alan.

[css-d] Egg timer flicker in ie6 on hover.

2008-04-27 Thread Dermot Ward
Hi Alan,

Many thanks for your suggestion. I did as you directed but to no avail..
(You mentioned div#rightNav, but I think you meant div#catNav).

When I remove the background bullet from div#catNav ul li  everything 
works normally again.

Its very frustrating.

Thanks again for your reply Alan and if you have any further suggestions 
I'd be very grateful.

Kind regards,

Dermot.

Re: [css-d] egg timer flicker in ie6 on hover

2008-04-26 Thread Alan K Baker
Add:

div#rightNav {
display:inline;
}

to your styles. This won't totally stop the 'flicker' because that's caused by 
the pointer crossing from the active element (hand) to the 
border/margin/whatever (pointer), but it will get rid of the egg-timer.

Regards, 
 
Alan.

  Hi,

  Can anyone please tell me why there is that irritating egg timer flicker 
  on the Categories ul
  on hover?

  The bullets and dotted underline are background graphics.

  The page is here:- http://defaultosc.com

  The css and markup validate.

  Many thanks.
  Dermot.
