[WSG] Marking up Doctor's Qualifications

2008-02-18 Thread Penny Haslop
Hi all

I am currently doing a website for a Medical Centre - and as you know
the Doctor's have their qualifications listed after their name.
Would an abbr tag with the appropriate title be the correct markup?
Or has anybody figured out a more appropriate option?
I'm also marking up the names using hCard, and as far as I can tell,
there's no obvious option to include the qualification as part of the
hCard either.

A definition list came to mind, but then a qualification isn't REALLY
a definition of a person ALTHOUGH when being addressed as a doctor it
may.

Any opinions?


Thanks in advance-
Penny

I often see older browsers in the log, but in such small quantities that

fraction of a percent share are safe to ignore, unless you know a reason 
not to. Konqueror, for example, isn't very popular, but since the KHTML 
engine is very good, it merits more attention than it's numbers suggest. 
Mobile browsers are also good examples since they are likely to grow 
quickly in popularity (between the iPhone and Google's OHA, I'm very 
optimistic).

My question wasn't in response to you – your answer made perfect sense. 
Michael MD implied that he cares about users that use  IE5

Re: [WSG] long words not wrapping inside DIV

2008-02-18 Thread Rajib Mukherji
Hi,

Naveen,

You can try using the overflow:none; as an attribute
within your DIV where are declaring menu width. Hope
this helps. Each single word must be less than your
defined width(150px).

Thanks

Re: [WSG] long words not wrapping inside DIV

2008-02-18 Thread Thomas Thomassen
As far as I know, control of how text wrap was introduced in CSS3: 
http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-text/#text-wrap
All though, IE has it's own property for this 
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms531186(VS.85).aspx

I think you'll have to pick a different word for your localization. 

Out of curiosity, why can't you change the width of the drop down menu?
