RE: [WSG] Stand alone IE6 Installer
Jay, Thanks for your explanation and your recommendation, I didn't think of using IE7 as SA (I didn't even knew it was available). I am aware that I'm running a Beta and all of the technical difficulties that could come with using Beta software. But I'm not too concerned since I don't use IE as my primary Browser; actually I use FF for work and Opera for personal usage.

RE: [WSG] WordPress - Dropped Sidebar In IE
Im not an expert in any way but I would suggest looking at the width of your header and the body of your site, I have the feeling it has to do with the padding of those items (you know, the regular box-model issue). Second suggestion is that since this list covers Web Standards I don’t know if disabling the “right click” menu on your site its user friendly. For example What if the user wants to open links in a new window? What if the user wants to help you “fix” your site by right clicking and looking at your CSS? I know there is ways around this and in this case you provided a link but still just something to think about.

[WSG] ServerSide Includes and Divs
I discovered something weird today. When I was creating my layout that contains includes for some reason my rules would not work properly only if the layout was like this. -- code starts Main Layout Include ‘header.php’; Include ‘content.php’; Include ‘footer’; --End of Main Layout --Sample Include //header.php Blah Logout -- end of code BUT! If I did this… --code starts Main Layout Include ‘header.php’; Include ‘content.php’; Include ‘footer’; ---End of Main Layout --Sample Include //header.php Blah Logout --end of code As you can see as long as I added my “header” wrapper in the “header.php” the rules would work fine, but if I didn’t then the rules would break. Has anyone experienced this? Is there any specific reason why rules would fail with includes? TIA ...helmut

1) I am using DW Templates and I have locked the menu to avoid having to recreate every time there is a menu update.

If the pages must be static then you only have two options that I can think of... 1) Use a "current" class (or id) on the navigation element that corresponds to the current page (something that you already said you dont want to do). If you're maintaining all these pages by hand then why is one extra attribute going to hurt? 2) Use JavaScript to traverse the element containing the navigation to find the achor tags href attribute which matches the page which is currently being viewed (this would be done unobtrusively of course, and will do nothing for browsers without JavaScript enabled, leaving non-JavaScript enabled browsers without a solution for the problem you're trying to solve).

Hello Everyone, Thanks everyone for your responses, I think I explained myself wrong: What I am trying to achieve is this: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/keepingcurrent/ but without using an ID or a class. I have been looking around and so far no luck, I believe that we have to type the ID names manually. The reason why I was trying to figure it out is because as some one commented I am creating a static site and contains hundreds of pages. So to avoid the trouble of opening each page and defining the “Active” ID I would like to solve the problem by just defining it in my CSS and then all the pages would inherit it.

[WSG] Object Mp3 into FF
I dont know if it is ok to post this kind of question here. I am trying to play a simple Mp3 file in the server, it works in IE, and I have read that if something works on IE but not in other browsers it is most likely because it is not writen properly. I have tested it extensibly in my machine and it is working. I have used the deprecated tag and the tag, both work on my computer and on IE on the server, but not on FF. Could some one take a look and help me find where I am making the mistake? Web references are good too. I have been searching for nearly 3 hours in different sites but none that I have found cover mp3, I even found a way around to embed Media Player in FF. Here is my code: CODEBASE="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab";> http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/";> TIA, Helmut ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help **

RE: [WSG] London Web Standards Conference - OT?
Shouldn't Posting Conferences be OT as Job Opportunities? Finding out who is going or why your boss doesn't have enough cash to send you to a conference have nothing to do with standards and creates a lot more traffic than a posting about a Job that could help some one.

You have the right idea, but the wrong methodology. The selectors you need
to use are:
#idName {
font-family: Verdana;
}
#idName a:link {
color: #FFF;
}
#idName a:visited {
color: #FFF;
}
#idName a:hover {
color: #FFF;
}
#idName a:active {
color: #FFF;
}
But it's much easier to write it out this way:
#idName a:link, #idName a:hover, #idName a:visited, #idName a:active
{
color: #fff;
}

Subject: [WSG] anchor, classes and IDs
Hello All,
This might be a dumb question but I don't really know how to search
correctly in google for my answer.
Is it possible that any anchor inside a DIV will inherit all the properties
from the DIV?
For example
/***
CSS
**/
#idName {
font-family: Verdana;
}
a.idName:link {
color: FFF;
}
a.idName:visited {
color: #FFF;
}
a.idName:hover {
color: #FFF;
}
a.idName:active {
color: #FFF;
}
I would like to declare all id once and be done with it.
HomeSub1
As it is right now I have to declare the class to each anchor usage:
Home">Sub1
I hope anyone can understand my question and let me know if it is possible.
I believe it is but I just don't know how exactly declare my classes.
Thank you!

[WSG] Overlaping [A]
Hello all,
Simple question
I had set up a pseudo-class like this
a.sub:link { property }
a.subTwo.link { property }...
It was working fine until I decided to define a global anchor pseudo-class
a.link { property } ...
a.sub:link { property }
a.subTwo.link { property }...
Now sub and subTwo have inherited the a class properties even though I had
declared individual properties for each one of them and applied directly to
links, for example:
Link Goes Here
Could some one give me a hint?
Thanks!!

RE: [WSG] Mozilla chocks with Dynamic Content
Great tips here… What I meant my frst CSS… I meant to say my first website controlled by CSS and it really it’s a challenge. Specially when I have to follow so many guidelines to WP already. Web Developer toolbar I never thought there was a tool like that. Thank you very much, this is a great help. The changes done to the CSS and being seen dynamicly its just amazing. Behavior add-on: I am not sure about that one, but I am still looking, Thanks again for the great help! -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gary Menzel Sent: Thursday, June 03, 2004 10:32 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [WSG] Mozilla chocks with Dynamic Content > Any tips will be more than welcome.

You will still probably have issues with the styling on the "search" fields. Get hold of Mozilla Firebird and the Web Developer toolbar - this lets you do a lot of good stuff that helps you work out CSS problems like this (as it lets you edit the CSS inline to see changes dynamically). Also, if this is your first CSS, you have a LOT of complex CSS selectors in your stylesheet that just wont work in the current version of IE (without using the behaviour add-on that is available - see Russ' link posts to find this).

RE: [WSG] Mozilla chocks with Dynamic Content
After examining a previews reply this was my logic. And thank you for the tip, Clear:both would make it work beautifully. So basicly clear:both means.. obey the height of the longest div.

[WSG] Mozilla chocks with Dynamic Content
If anyone has the time visit: www.helmutgranda.com I struggled for couple of days redesigning my layout because it would not show good in Mozilla. Thinking there was an error on the layout, but for some reason my layouts never worked with Dynamic Content. Does anyone knows why this happens? IE renders fine, but Mozilla chocks then the dynamic content shows up. It keeps the footer in the same position instead of going with the flow. Any tips will be more than welcome. Its my first CSS layout so bare with me if there is a bounch of mess in there. helmut * The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help *
