[css-d] h4/a right border alignment within td (E.M on CSS p.102)

2006-06-26 Thread Albo Fossa
OOps: Sorry, neglectful post. Context: chapter 5 of book, site:
www.ericmeyeroncss.com. Describing html: transition between ch0504.html and
ch0505.html. Situation: programmer is presented with a web page in which a
web page describes a navigation td at left and a body td at right. The
navigation td consists of a series of h4s separating a series of a's
pointing to the appropriate pages elsewhere on the site. The programmer
decides to add a *separate* style section, not part of the original style
sheet, to describe the navigation td, hence, *before* the update I don't
understand:


style type=text/css
/* menu styles */
td#sidelinks a { display: block;
   margin: 0; padding: 1px;
   text-decoration: none;
   font: bold 100% Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;
   border-right: 1px solid rgb(30%,20%,20%); }
td#sidelinks h4 { background-color: transparent; color: rgb(30%,20%,10%);
   margin: 0; padding: 1em 0 0;
   font: bold 100% Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; }
/style

Next step is to change td#sidelinks a padding to 1px 10px 1px 5px; As a
result, *both* the hr's and the a's get padded. I don't understand how the
padding gets applied to the hr's.

remains so obedient. Does it have to do with the fact that  h4  is margin:

Hi Albo,
Eh, really no idea ...
The people on this list who don't have Eric Meyer's book (like me...) 
have a lack of information. If you want them to get what you mean, you 
should provide us with some more data. What is the css and html code of 
this illustration? Maybe there is some code online in Eric's book's 
dowloads http://www.ericmeyeroncss.com/dloads/. In that case, a 
project number is needed instead of a page number. ;-)

Greetings,
francky
