[WSG] 3-Col Issue Javascript Heavy site
Hi All: I am developing a community calendar that is ran by javascripts that pulls from database. It has a 3-col layout. I'm aware that javascript-based site is not the most accessible but was the economical option for our non-profit. I have two questions: 1)In Safari, the center col is not filling the entire center like it should on both PC and Mac but all other browsers OK. The floating left and right sidebars have margins sent while the center col sits relative in the middle. 2)Since this is a primarily javascript-ran website, can you give me tips, on how to make it more accessible? I'm not going to do extreme measures here, but maybe will implement some basics. Site: http://www.nvarts.org/demo/index.shtml CSS: http://www.nvarts.org/demo/styles.css Thanks for your time!

[WSG] Background-Image not displaying in IE5 IE6
I have a div container that has a background image (gradation) which is displaying fine in IE7 Mozilla, but it's not displaying in IE5 IE6. Within that containing div with the background-image is a content div floating left with a background-color: #fff, and a sidebar background-color:transparent --- so that it displays the background image. Anyone knows why or a better solution? If I put the background-image in the sidebar of where I want it to display, it cuts off too short because there's not enough content in the sidebar - thus put it in the containing div so that there's no cut off issue.

In the header of your HTML should be a line like this - meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html; charset=utf-8 /. Your server is sending an HTTP header that tells browsers to use the ISO-8859-1 character set, hence the mismatch. You can fix it by changing the line in your HTML to charset=iso-8859-1. However I always recommend instead using utf-8 because it's broader. ISO-8859-1 is actually a subset of utf-8. You'll have to talk to your server admin to change the HTTP header I believe. -Tim -- Tim Offenstein *** Campus Accessibility Liaison *** (217) 244-2700 CITES Departmental Services *** www.uiuc.edu/goto/offenstein *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *** *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
