What's a widget in this context?


2009/10/12 Kristine Cummins des...@kristinecummins.com

 I am unsuccessfully able to convert my CSS/design into *pre-set HTML
 widget code* (see widget code below).
 Current List design (see Events on right):
 http://www.elizabethspencerwines.com/development/v9/index.shtml

 div id=sidebar
 ul
 li id=events-calendar class=widget EC_Widget_display
 h2 class=widgettitleEvents Calendar/h2

 ul
 li id=no-events-in-liststrongtext goes here/strong/li
 /ul

 /li
 /ul
 /div!-- end sidebar --

 =

 My original CSS to make my un-widgetized design work:
 .iconlist {
 background-color: inherit;
 color: #000;
 font: normal .7em/1.2em Trebuchet MS, verdana, helvetica, sans-serif;
 list-style: none;
 margin: 0;
 padding: 0;
 }

 li.bullet {
 background: url(images/bullet.gif) no-repeat 0 8%;
 padding: 3px 0 3px 20px;
 margin: .7em 0;
 }

 .smtxt {
 background-color: transparent;
 color: #999;
 font: 11px/13px Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;
 text-align: center;
 }


 A MILLION THANKS!

Not sure that I understand the question, but none of the CSS that you
show here applies to the code snippet that you included: they have no
classes in common.

 2nd question - is there a list of known Webkit bugs anywhere?

[WSG] JavaScript courses in Sydney

2009-10-12 Thread David McKinnon

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a good JavaScript course in Sydney?

I've been teaching myself for a few years, so I have a reasonable idea  
how to write unobtrusive JavaScript and have mucked around with  
jQuery, but feel I need something practical to really consolidate my  
knowledge and move forward.

Does anyone know a good, solid one- or two-day course?

There's two other people in my team who would be interested as well.  
We're located in the CBD, so somewhere close to the city would be ideal.


Thanks,
David McKinnon

[WSG] dl as paragraph?

2009-10-12 Thread nedlud
Hi everyone.

I was just looking at a page on the National Library of Australia web site (
http://www.nla.gov.au/services/issnabout.html) and noticed the font
rendering was strange in my browser (Firefox 3.5.3). When I looked at the
markup to try and understand why, I found that the site seem to be marked up
using definition lists for paragraphs.

I don't want to jump to conclusions, so can anyone suggest a legitimate
reason for doing this?

Each paragraph seems to be a new list (not a new list *item*. A whole new
list). And the text is in a dd tag with no dt.

The strange font rendering (in FF at least) seems to be caused by the font
(Myriad Pro) being rendered at %90. Changing either the font size of face
appears to fix it.

whole new list).


My guess is that the markup was engineered by someone still learning 
the ropes. The page content is in the form of a QA and they validly 
selected a definition list as the markup structure, but then they 
decided to use h3 for the questions and realized an h3 couldn't be 
the immediate child of a dl so they dropped out of the list structure 
for each question. I think a better solution would have been to make 
the whole FAQ a single dl and drop the h3's.




And the text is in a dd tag with no dt.


I believe that's valid markup. As I read the DTD, a definition list 
must contain at least one dt *OR* dd but doesn't require at least one of each:


!ELEMENT DL - - (DT|DD)+  -- definition list --
http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/lists.html#h-10.3

Paul

Nope - it's so stupid as to barely warrant discussion.

Re: [WSG] Is page-break-before broken in Webkit?

2009-10-12 Thread James Ducker
Hi there,

As a test, try using that style on an element that isn't floated or
inside a floated element.

Tim White responded:

David,

In testing that I've done I have found that @media doesn't seem to
work in external stylesheets in all browsers. Try moving the @media
rules into an embedded stylesheet just to see if Webkit works then.



Oh, the @media print works all right. Check the print preview.
I even tried moving the rule out of the @media section. I just can't get
the page-break-before to put the recipe on its own page... All other
styles are applied just fine.

FWIW - page-break-after does not work either. Only Webkit...

Cordially,
David
