Re: [WSG] premature to test/worry new site for IE8?
I am about to start coding for a new site, and client asked me to make sure my code will work for IE8, meaning when IE 8 comes out, she doesn't need to pay me extra to fix any problem that may occur in IE 8. Client is from a web media company, though I understand her concerns and that she has to answer to her client, but I just don't know how or if I should commit to such 'expectation'. Last time with IE 7, there was no problem and none of the sites I coded for her break when IE 7 came out. I think this version targeting thing really got people worry. Say, I code my CSS with best practice just like I'd always do, and treat IE browsers with CC should it be needed. Do I need to worry anything with IE8? It didn't occur to me to worry anything at all until client was making this request. My take on this is you cannot *really* code for a browser that's not released yet. Alpha/Beta/pre-release versions simply are not the same as final versions. There's a slight difference in this case because you do have a safety net - if the site works in IE7, but truly goes pear shaped in IE8, you can version switch it back to IE7. But, that's a first ever situation and I would not change my dealings with a client on that basis. As an ongoing client relations precedent I'd suggest that you do not commit to making something work in a browser that's not in final release. Reassure them that you will code to best practice; ensure any conditional comments are version tagetted appropriately (do not use if IE, always use something like if IE lte 7 or if IE 6); mention that version switching is a safety net; do test in beta browsers but don't guarantee the final release. If their site ultimately needs work due to a new browser release, that's part of the cost of ownership of a web presence. You can agree to minimise the risk, but you can't guarantee the site won't need work in IE8's final version. Hope that helps :) -Ben -- --- http://weblog.200ok.com.au/ --- The future has arrived; it's just not --- evenly distributed. - William Gibson *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

Hi! Ben Buchanan skrev: My take on this is you cannot *really* code for a browser that's not released yet. Alpha/Beta/pre-release versions simply are not the same as final versions. My experience from IE7 beta releases in a nutshell: * bugs changed between betas * no bugs I encountered (and found workarounds for) in betas existed in the final release * a new bug was introduced in the final version, breaking the navigation completely for the sites I was working on ... The cheapest solution is to work with existing software, so coding for IE8 now is a bad idea in my opinion. Any work on finding workarounds for IE8 at this stage may be a waste of time. /anders *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

[WSG] IE6 width issue
Good morning A client is still having issues with his site www.bourkebridgeinn.com.au. I asked him to send me a screenshot: http://www.westernwebdesign.com.au/test/screenshot.jpg It seems to be a problem only in IE6 at a screen resolution of 800x600 and lower. The #header does not fit the full width of the container on the left hand side as it should and neither does the #nav. Although it cannot be seen in the screenshot, the footer is also far too high.At a resolution of 640x480, the #nav also breaks. I was wondering if it was anything to do with the max-width I have on #container and #nav as I know IE6 does not recognise max-width.

RE: [WSG] An efficient CSS architecture
Jens, I worked up something for www.iasbet.com which was reasonably robust. This was before we adopted the Yahoo YUI for our in-house development. I'd suggest you create separate CSS files and workflows for a creative workgroup and a development workgroup (content.css and controls.css) as both departments will want to release unique controls and content elements that won't be able to pick up the existing styles. This will relieve pressure on the framework CSS files. I'd suggest that CSS be added to a project and validated before going out, and use ID to isolate areas where you can. You should be able to clean out the content.css and controls.css files periodically. The multiple stylesheets are a concern, but your base framework can be combined and compressed and served from somewhere else as others have suggested. You can do much the same for the javascript too.

Re: [WSG] IE6 width issue
Thanks Al You need min-width in addition to, or instead of, max-width. IE7 will be fine, along with other modern browsers. For IE6 you need to use a script or a CSS expression to set min-width. You can google ie6 min-width css expression. You should get lots of hits. If not, reply back and I'll give you one. I have indeed already looked at using expressions and found it all a bit confusing so I resorted to not using max-width and substituting width: 100%; it seems to be OK now. Thanks for the offer, though. Re the #nav breaking, is there any way around this? I must confess I don't really worry about 640x480 anymore.

IE7 will be fine, along with other modern browsers. For IE6 you need to use a script or a CSS expression to set min-width. You can google ie6 min-width css expression. You should get lots of hits. If not, reply back and I'll give you one. I have indeed already looked at using expressions and found it all a bit confusing so I resorted to not using max-width and substituting width: 100%; it seems to be OK now. Thanks for the offer, though. Re the #nav breaking, is there any way around this? I must confess I don't really worry about 640x480 anymore. If it doesn't concern you than you are right to ignore it :-) -- Al *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
