 You can also be interactive with html.  You will also have your

Re: [WSG] old underscore hack question

2008-07-19 Thread Manny Blum

If you don't want to use conditionals, then try this:

#shell {
background: url(../images/iebg.gif);
margin:0 auto;
background-repeat:repeat-y;
}

htmlbody #shell {
background: url(../images/bgshad.png);
}

IE can' read the second block of code cause it gets confused by  
htmlbody, all other browsers have no problems with it.


Hope this helps. I've never heard of the underscore hack.

Its only an ie6 because transparency workaround.
In my understanding the below code should only serve the gif to ie  
6, not later versions?

but IE net renderer is rendering the gif in all ie versions.
Its not really like that in a real life right?

#shell{ background:url(../images/bgshad.png);
_background: url(../images/iebg.gif);
margin:0 auto;
background-repeat:repeat-y;
}

thanks in advance

You are correct. The underscore hack works with IE 5 and 6 only.
An extension of this is to use an asterisk instead of an underscore
to hack for IE7 as well. Obviously you don't need that, but I mention
it for completeness.

FWIW - I use these hacks while fixing up IE oddities during development.
I think it preferable to use another technique for the final cut, though.
Something like the one Manny Blum suggests looks good.

Also perhaps relevant, or perhaps not -- you can combine GIF-like
binary transparency with alpha transparency in a single 8-bit PNG.[1][2]
Not so good if you really do need more colors, but an alternative.

Cordially,

[WSG] iphone should not be part of your url

2008-07-19 Thread Keryx Web

I am feeling moody today, but...

Are we selling our soul for a shiny newish toy from Apple?

A specific app or device should not be part of an URL. Period.

URL's like iphone.domain.com are an abomination! Even if the content is 
standards based.

As a side note, when using these hacks (_property and *property) in a last
declaration, it is important to terminate that declaration with a ; to
prevent breakage in Safari v2

selector {property:value;_property:value} /* no safe for Safari v2 */

selector {property:value;_property:value;} /* safe for Safari v2 */

Hi Lars,

I can't see what difference it makes - if someone chooses to create a
mobile-device-friendly version of their site and publish it under a separate
URL (as opposed to the elegant way - that is, using a mobile-device-friendly
stylesheet) then that is probably their business. We may laugh at them, but
the average user will probably appreciate a positive match to a show me
restaurants in Timbuktu with iPhone-friendly sites search.

Of course, your mileage may vary.

Best regards, Andrew
