 Hi all,

 Could anyone tell me where there is information regarding character code
 'usage' that is simple.  I always use UTF-8 and, e.g., if I want to put a
 left quote in my text I can use quot; or #8220;  Which is recommended?

 Any help, links etc most welcome. (I have googled, but . . .)

 Thanks,

 Bob

Re: [WSG] Standards way of getting div background color?

2008-11-27 Thread Алексей Тен
Use window.getComputedStyle for standard-compliant browsers and
element.currentStyle for IE.

 Dunno, if this has been asked before.

 I've been looking wherever I can for a way to get a div's or any element's
 background color in a sementic friendly way (ie. works in IE and FF) using
 javascript.

 so far i've tried the below:

 document.getElementById('element').bgColor;

 

 document.getElementById('element').style.backgroundColor;

 TIA

Re: [WSG] Forcing a vertical scrollbar in Firefox 3

2008-06-20 Thread Алексей Тен
You should try

html { overflow-y: scroll; }

 I've always used:

 html{min-height:100.1%;}

 to force a vertical scroll-bar in Firefox for fixed width sites that are
 centred in the browser window - it stops them jumping sideways when you
 navigate between pages that are longer and shorter than the viewport.

 With the release of Firefox 3 however, I've found that this no longer works
 and I need to increase the minimum height percentage slightly:

 html{min-height:100.2%;}

 does the trick!

Re: [WSG] Background-position in percentage

2008-06-03 Thread Алексей Тен
On Wed, Jun 4, 2008 at 8:01 AM, John Horner [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
 I've just spent a bit of time looking at how background-position works
 when expressed as a percentage:

  background-position: 90%;

 and I'm wondering why it works the way it does.

 Here's the best way I can describe the effect of (90%, x-axis)
 positioning with percentages: to position the image such that the point
 90% across the image is aligned with the point 90% across the element.
Have you read specs?
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/colors.html#propdef-background-position

 There's something rather counter-intuitive about that (it's even hard to
 describe!), and I've tried to explain it in teaching people about CSS
 and found that people are rather baffled by it.

 Does anyone know why it was created that way, and/or can you tell me if
 there's some very useful thing this rule allows you to do? That is, as
 opposed to a simpler rule like image is offset that amount to the left
 which is what I assumed when I first came across it.
Can you provide other way to align right edge of background image
with right edge of box? To center background image?

Re: [WSG] Client cannot view website

2008-04-08 Thread Алексей Тен
I'm can't see content in IE6 too.

Adding position:relative to #sidebar and #main fixes the problem.

  I hope this post is allowed. Just had a call from a client to say he
 cannot see all of his website.  He does not seem very computer literate.  He
 says he can see the first bit ( header and the navigation bar underneath
 the header),  but below is just a green blank page.

 I can see nothing wrong with the site which has been up for ages and am
 thinking it is his computer though I have no idea what could be wrong.  He
 uses IE.

 Is there anything I can get him to check.. Url is
