Left column not well prepared for my standard option... 'min font 
size = 14px'. Same overshooting result in Firefox 1.5 and Opera 
9tp2.



I can't think of a fix besides creating a large gutter between the
 two columns...


Not necessary, as you can have elastic layouts without using em on
individual containers. I just tested on a copy of your page, and it
behaves just fine even though I didn't go in depth or looked at your CSS.

The trick (which should be used more often, IMO) is to set 'em'-width
only on the outer container and '%'-width on all the others. Your layout
is so close to an ordinary '25%+75% 2-column float construct' that it'll
come out fine with such values. Some slight margin-adjustments will take
care of the rest across browser-land

My hope is that users with such settings will know how to take 
advantage of that elastic layout; two simple Ctrl++ should take 
care of the issue.


:-)
Guess so. However, we use such minimum-settings so we won't have to
click anything. That's the whole idea.

Georg

[WSG] Site Check: SAPheadhunter

2006-04-10 Thread Thierry Koblentz
The careers section is an iFrame (not much I can do here) and there is no
validation script on the forms yet.
The stylesheet switcher will be replaced so the banner won't jump on page
load.

I'm particularly interested in the behavior of the boxes with drop shadow
on the home page across browsers.

They look fine in FF 1.5 Win but they are off to the right in Opera 8
Win. I don't know if others have this problem in Opera 8, it might
just be my machine which has a problem with the DPI.

I should also mention that these drop-shadows make me sick to my
stomach. I think it is because they do not look realistic but (I
presume unintentionally) create a sort of optical-illusion. The boxes
look flat but they have a shadow that appears curved. I would go for
some more traditional drop-shadows.

The top 2 boxes appear to have a 1 px whitespace between the bottom
border and the drop shadow in Firefox 1.0.7 Win XP Pro. The bottom 2
boxes are fine. All boxes look fine in IE 6.0.29

Hi Christian,
Your machine is fine. Opera renders the exact same thing as IE does, the
difference is that I was able to use a Conditional Comment to take care of
that shift in IE (I just won't make the extra effort for Opera).

 I should also mention that these drop-shadows make me sick to my
 stomach. I think it is because they do not look realistic but (I
 presume unintentionally) create a sort of optical-illusion. The boxes
 look flat but they have a shadow that appears curved. I would go for
 some more traditional drop-shadows.

The effect I was after is that the 2 bottom corners look like they are
up; but mostly I was testing a DOM solution to keep the markup clean.
