Hello
I am looking for a web standards friendly shopping cart for an upcoming 
project.  I have had a look but not had much luck, previously used CactusASP 
but the amount of spurious and unnecessary HTML will not have me calling again.


Would appreciate any links and/or recommendations.  Thank you.

RE: [WSG] keyboard onclick activation on Mac

2005-09-21 Thread Golding, Antony

Hi Grant,

Try adding the 'onclick' code into an 'onkeypress' entry also...

a href=# onclick=if(!window.print){alert('Your browser does not support 
this feature.Please select print from the file 
menu')}else{window.print()};return false; 
onkeypress=if(!window.print){alert('Your browser does not support this 
feature.Please select print from the file menu')}else{window.print()};return 
false;Print/a

It's a bit of duplication but should hopefully cover both clicks and key 
presses.

All UK local government sites have a requirement to be AA rated for 
accessibility, so expect to see a lot more of them in the near future.

Hi All,

I was surprised to find a local government web site (English)  using
standards and accessibility:

http://www.oldham.gov.uk/

It doesn't quite validate, but it's a determined start!

[WSG] Drop down menu, JavaScript accessibility

2005-01-28 Thread Golding, Antony

Hello all,

We have been operating a drop down menu system on http://www.salford.gov.uk for 
around a year now and in that time, the menu has changed from a pure JavaScript 
version to the more accessible and semantic UDM4 (http://www.udm4.com).

As a local government site, we get tested for accessibility regularly, both 
internally and by external parties, together with our own tests. Our CMS is 
still in the dark ages as regards web standards and producing accessible code, 
but I've managed to get much of the site valid as possible (Google currently 
indexes 33,700 pages, minus .pdf and .doc files). However one of the more 
recent external tests indicated that the drop down menu was failing the site 
due to the way the menu appears if JavaScript is disabled.

I'd be interested in any opinions on the menu, with JavaScript enabled and 
disabled. Also, any alternative script or  recommendations would be very useful.

RE: [WSG] Drop down menu, JavaScript accessibility

2005-01-28 Thread Golding, Antony

Thanks for the responses, guys.

The main problem with the script is when JavaScript is disabled, as Bennie 
mentioned. I thought I had the perfect workaround by only displaying the top 
level links if JavaScript was disabled, and it looked and worked perfectly, 
stopping the corruption of the page.

Unfortunately I did this by using an additional style sheet that was embedded 
in a noscript tag in the head...
noscriptstyle type=text/css@import url(noscript.css);/style/noscript

The new CSS replaced the styles that would have been setup by the JS to make 
the static menu appear similar to the dropdown. However, the W3C validator 
reported it was invalid to embed style in noscript, so if anyone has any 
suggestions to get around this issue, I'd be very grateful.

[WSG] DL Formatting Issue (IE again!)

2004-10-12 Thread Golding, Antony

Hi all,

I'm using the nifty Maxdesign definition list image gallery script 
(http://www.maxdesign.com.au/presentation/definition/dl-image-gallery.htm).

I've got the page formatted as required by the web manager, but a format problem as 
arisen in IE only. The development page is available here:
http://www.salford.gov.uk/ghostcam-test/ghostcam-archive.htm

In Firefox, Opera, etc the layout appears perfectly as required. In IE6 however, below 
the final image some of the dd definition is repeated. At present, the final dd 
contains '21/09/2004 at 13:05:02' and beneath that, '5:02' appears. The '5:02' text 
isn't repeated anywhere in the source, and seems to come purely from the final dd 
text. Any suggestions why would be gratefully accepted!

The CSS involved is:

dl.gallery {
border: 1px solid #000;
background-color: #eee;
width: 164px;
text-align: center;
padding: 6px;
margin-bottom: 14px;
float: left;
margin-right: 1em;
}

.gallery dt img {
border: 1px solid #000;
width: 160px;
height: 120px;
}

.gallery dd {
font-weight: bold;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}


Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I am trying to validate like XHTML 1 Strict a web page with a form. There is
checkbox that it has to be checked using checked. The W3C validador gives
me error constantly in this. There is no possibility of using checked in
XHTML?
