 Please look at: http://jsfiddle.net/6Q6ud/

 What I want is the 'Convert and download' button to be directly under
 the Pixel Size field, and the list to begin on the same line as the
 'Convert and download' button, just after it, and then continue down.

 I've been messing with display and positioning styles for hours and
 hours and just cannot get this to look like I want.


 This may help you come up with one solution:

Thanks for the reply and link. I was working on this, when my client
asked 'How you coming on this?' I told them what I was working on.
They said let's see it. I showed them and they said 'It's fine like
that.' That seems to happen a lot - someone asks for something a
certain way, and after putting time and effort in trying to do, then
they say it's fine some other way. Oh well, it's their nickel.

 Hi Guys,
 I'm getting started with webdevelopment  . I know CSS, HTML  and begining
 javascript and Jquery .My question is what's the process you guys use to
 develop websites and why?
 Do you develop everything from scratch( notepad++)?
 Do you use templates (css HTMl, Jquery etc) ex: Bootstraper , Less or other
 and make changes to style.
 Do you use Content management systems ( drupal, Word press, etc)
 or any other way?

 I'm kind of lost what would be best for me ? and what people are using and
 why.
 Let me know any suggestions,


Ask 20 people and you are likely to get 17 different answers. As
usual, I think it depends... and, more important -- since the mission
of this list lies more in the realm of the practical application of
CSS.you may have better luck with your question on
http://webdesign-l.com/ .

aside
I am a designer rather than a developer. The all important tools on
this end are a sheet of paper and a pencil inorder to do rough draft
visual, then directly to html/css for a rough on screen layout...
usually, nowadays, a layout that strives from scratch to work from one
address in desktop, tablet and mobile handsets.

Best,
David Laakso

[css-d] something overwriting my css?

2013-03-20 Thread Angela French
Hello,
I've got a dropdown menu where the text for the menu items is supposed to be a 
dark gray but  is coming up white on a white background. I can't find what is 
making the color declaration not work. I'd be grateful for any assistance.

The site is here: http://168.156.9.250/WELA/

The issue is found on the drop down menus (for example, under About WELA).

Below is the css for that element.  I can make other tweeks such as changing 
the padding and the effect is immediately seen, but I can't get that color to 
behave.  The ONLY way I could get it black was to put the style inline on the 
li like this: li a href=test.htm  style=color:Black!important;Academy 
Overview/a/li


.dropdown-menu  li  a {
  display: block;
  padding: 3px 20px;
  clear: both;
  font-weight: normal;
  line-height: 20px;
  color: #33!important;
  white-space: nowrap;
}


It is located in the bootstrap.css file at line 4820. You can see from my 
declaration, that using !important didn't get it to work. I don't find anything 
in the cascade of style sheets that overwrites it, not is there anything inline.

Thank you for any assistance.

You have a:

.nav-collapse .dropdown-menu a {

   1. color: White!important;

}

That is causing the link text to be white. I'd avoid using '!important' -
it tends to cause issues like this.

full menu and the collapsed menus simultaneously.

The above site was posted a few days ago. Since then these changes and
revisions -- among others -- have been made to the server:

1/  The painting images are now 100% rather than 60% of their
containing block in desktop, tablet, mobile.
2/  The navigation block remains beneath the primary content block in
desktop and tablet but is now positioned immediately below the header
at media query 480 mobile and down.
3/ Various color revisions have been made particularly within the
navigation links..

Your constructive comments and suggestions are always welcome.

Thanks.

Best,
David Laakso
