Re: [WSG] Safari support for border-collapse?

2003-11-12 Thread Mark Lynch
Hi James,

I've just been playing around with this on Konqueror and it doesn't seem 
to be supported.  I'm writing a bit of a tutorial on the two border 
models for tables and when I am finished it I will post it online and 
submit some bug reports to kde to see if we can get it supported.

If you find a workaround I'll be interested to see it but I suspect 
we'll have to wait until at least safari 1.2 or kde 3.3.

Any idea if there is a bugzilla or similar for safari?

Cheers,
Mark

Does Safari support border-collapse : collapse;  in removing the

My testing says no but could their be a workaround?

This is the CSS way around cellpadding and cellspacing

Re: [WSG] Safari support for border-collapse?

2003-11-12 Thread Mark Lynch
Further to this I found this in the kde bugzilla

http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45570#c8
/2003-10-30 18:10 --- /
Safari has been recently added support for border-collapse. So khtml 
will eventually support it, too (but not for 3.2).

I can't find any available info on what version of Safari this will be 
included in.

Cheers,
Mark

Miles,

Are you floating that image to the left? If this is the case, you need to
set a left margin on the text that's slightly wider than the image.

Use a margin-left on the text that is the size of the image and then
float the image to the left?
So its like 

img yadda yadda width=this amount style=float:left;
div style=margin-left:this amount;content between here/div

Miles :

Put your text in in a block set its margin-left to x pixels (.eg 170) 
should be wider than the image (.eg 160)..   The margin will run from 
the left of the containing block.

This will work for fixed width images.

RE: [WSG] Re: Image float and text wrap

2003-11-12 Thread Miles Tillinger

Thanks, that achieves the effect I'm after,

but

The reason I wanted to do it was because the image and the text both linked to the 
same URL with an a tag each (in separate cells of a table).  I wanted to combine 
them so they were both wrapped in the one a tag, but when the a tag is wrapped 
around both div's clicking the image doesn't open the URL.

So the solution defeats its own purpose :(  Any ideas?

Hi Miles,

There are several ways of accomplishing this. Here are three different ways
I've done:

content (multiple block elements) floated right, image floated left.
http://www.mxdu.com/

image (accommodates variable width) floated left, content floated left -
inline styles.
http://www.brendansisson.com/

image floated left, content floated left.
http://www.leyland.com.au/


All use clear to stop things going whack when there's insufficient
content.

Miles,

Try using something like Eric Meyer's absolutely positioned image trick:
http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/popups/demo.html and
http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/popups/demo2.html -- these use
absolute positioning to take a span or an image out of the normal
document flow and position it somewhere else. You could use this trick to
move your image to the left of the content and the hover effect should
still work.

Hi Miles,

You might need to use a span instead of a div and redefine it to be block
level using display: block.  I haven't tested this but as far as I can
remember the HTML spec does not allow block level elements inside an anchor
(a) tag.

RE: [WSG] html encryption tool

2003-11-12 Thread Mark Stanton

Does anyone know how this would work? It encrypts the source code so you
can view it but it is encrypted.

It doesn't.

It makes it slightly harder to view source by encrypting (very much in
inverted commas) the data. However the entire encryption  decryption
mechanism is sent to the user as javascript so anyone with the time or
inclination could reverse engineer it.

This is either the stupidest concept I have ever see in my life or the one
of the best jokes around (they must be Irish (sorry Mark L)). Not only is it
completely pointless but it completely breaks any concept of accessibility 
standards compliance. Turn off javascript and you get a blank page..

Why anyone would want to encrypt html or css is beyond me + half their
listed key benefits are complete misrepresentations (lies).

dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb
