I have had success with something like:

dt {
  float: left;
  width: 10em;
}
dd {
  margin-left: 11em;
}

HIH!

Re: [WSG] naughty horizontal unformatted list in OSX IE 5.2 - Mac-addicts needed!

[Zachary Hopkins]

Here's a quick reference to the css for my nav bar:
ul.navigation{margin:0;padding:0;border-style:none;border-width:0;display:table-cell;}
li.navigation{display:block;float:left;text-align:center;padding:0 3px 0 
3px;margin:0;font-size:120%;font-weight:bold;}

Such as,

 
 
It's probably a combination of things, like float:left and display:block.

Re: [WSG] centering floats?

[Alan Trick]

Centering the containiner is meaningless though if it doesn't have a 
fixed width (that's smaller than it's container), and if it does have a 
fixed width, than it ruins the whole point of the thing, to allow the 
boxes to flow depending on the size of the container. 

I guess i'll just have to float to the left.

You could center the container holding the floats using  margin auto;  
however, you would not be able to center the floats within that  
container-- it's pick your poison, either float them left, or float 
them  right.

Re: [WSG] Liquid layout with fixed width elements

[Alan Trick]

Here's a way that would work on most browsers. The middlestuff div isn't 
mandatory, but it is usefull if you want to have a background, if you 
don't use middlestuff then you'll have to use  #footer{clear:both} .

HTML:


   
   
   


CSS:
for all
#middlestuff{overflow:auto}
for leftbar | content | rightbar:
#leftbar{float:left;width:10em}
#rightbar{float:right;width:12em}
#content{margin:0 12em 0 10em;}
for leftbar | rightbar| content :
#leftbar{float:left;width:10em}
#rightbar{float:left;width:12em}
#content{margin:0 0 0 22em;}
for content | rightbar| leftbar :
#leftbar{float:right;width:10em}
#rightbar{float:right;width:12em}
#content{margin:0 22em 0 0;}
if you want content | leftbar | rightbar or rightbar| leftbar | content 
you'll have to use absolute positioning (I think) which would screw up 
your footer

Re: [WSG] Strange problem

[Jalenack]

Alright, I tested it in IE5/Mac, Safari, Firefox and Opera and they
all turned up content.

Seeing as she doesn't know what system she's on, I'd very much doubt
she's running anything besides Mac or PC. Linux users tend to know
they are running linux :-)

It could have to do with this bit of CSS:

#leftcolumn { width : 350px; float : left; }

#rightcolumn { width : 350px; float : right;}

You don't need to float both items, just one or the other. I think in
some browsers (NN4 perhaps?) it just totally destroys that. It figures
if both items are floated there is nothing for them to float against.
Try experimenting with that snippet.

Infrequent is a page with fixed width sides that doesn't break badly
when zoomed. How badly they break varies according to zoom level and how
big the text was to start with, but typically content overflows onto the
center, causing overlapping text. Why do you think the sides need to be
fixed width?

[WSG] Liquid layout with fixed width elements

Hi all,

I've done some research on this and can't quite come up with a viable
solution.

What I have is this: a header, main content, side content 1, side content
2, and footer. The side contents are fixed with. The header, main, and
footer are liquid.

This is the way the markup flows in the document as well. What I'd like to

markup. I want one where if you look at the page, you see (from left to
right): side content 1 then main. Another where main comes before side
content 1. Another where it shows side content 1, main, side content 2.
(Header and footer come before and after respectively like normal)

She just can't access your left frame when javascript is disabled.
In FF, choose Tools/Options/Content/, and disable JavaScript, to see.
I think this is a problem of your frame design.

Re: [WSG] Strange problem

[Genau Lopes Jr.]

Hi Bob,
i already had this problem with a website that i did.  Somethin useful 
to avoid this kind of problema, you did wery well. You Validated the code.
But sometimes, some browser or some OS may recognize the XHTML in 
differents views.

I recommend you use a toll pretty useful tho hard times like that.
Try:  http://www.browsercam.com/default.aspx
There, you can see through snapshots, you site in different OS and  browser.
best regards,

[WSG] Strange problem

[designer]

Good Morning All, (well, it is here),

I have recently started the conversion of a site (www.sheltielife.co.uk -
actually my wife's) to XHTM/CSS and I thought it was fine. It all validates
etc (apart from the frameset and a teeny bit of Flash:-) and I've tested it
in FF, IE5.5 and 6, Opera 7, Mozilla - and it seems to work OK (windows XP).

However, one lady has contacted my wife because she 'can't see the gallery'.
She has tried over 2-3 days but fails consistently. The rest of the site is
no problem.  Unfortunately, she doesn't know what her PC is, her browser, or
anything else 'technical', so it's hard to know if she is doing/using
something peculiar, or indeed if there is a real problem here.

So, could anyone with a MAC, or anything else which isn't winXP, have a look
and see please? And if you find anything, tell me what is wrong?

The actual problem page (s) can be seen at [1] and the css at [2]

[1] http://www.gwelan.fsnet.co.uk/gallery/galleryone.html

[2] http://www.gwelan.fsnet.co.uk/CSSfiles/gallery.css

(or, of course, you can just go to the domain link above and select
'gallery'

Many thanks.
