[WSG] Affecting width of scrollbar in FF

2005-10-20 Thread Marco Della Pina
Hi everybody,

is there a way to affect the width of the scrollbar in firefox?

On firefox default theme under WinXP (XP-Style) the scrollbar width is
19px (there's a 2px grey border on the left side of the scrollbar), but
there's only an maximum width of 18px for a scrollbar in my screen
design.

Thanks for helping me,

Marco

[WSG] Problem with line-height and images in IE

2004-09-01 Thread marco della pina
Hi,

I have a dodgy problem with my Stylesheet in Internet Exploret 5+.



.mydiv {
font-family: Arial,Verdana;
font-size: 12px;
color: #333;
width: 300px;
line-height: 16px;
}
img {   border: 0; }


Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text
Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text
Text Text Text  Text Text Text Text Text Text



The problem is, that an image inside a block element destroys the
line-height of the line containing that image. In my example the line
height of the line containing an image is only 15 px and not as declared
16px.

Can anybody help me?


Cheers,

RE: [WSG] text field size tag

There is a big problem with defining the width of input and select
fields over CSS:

Internet Explorer 6 (Windows) (only!) in "Standard Mode" has a bug in
its rendering engine, i.e. the CSS-Definition "width: 200px;" is wider
for an input field than for a select box.

I wrote a small example on http://www.mdpnet.de/css-width/

So far, I found no solution on this problem. Does anybody else?

Greetings from Germany,

Marco

OK. Thanks for that hint. I tried it and discovered that
style="border:none" on the body tag only works, if there's no doctype in
the document I load. And I really mean NO doctype: it doesn't work
neither with HTML4 transitional/strict nor with several XHTML doctypes.

So, any other ideas?

Marco

[WSG] iframe - object - xhtml - IE6

2004-04-29 Thread marco della pina
Hi,

today I'm thinking about the future of iframes.

Everybody knows, that iframes are deprecated in XHTML 1.0 Strict and thus no more part 
in future XHTML releases.

I tried to use the object tag instead of an iframe:


Your browser doesn't support the object tag. -> Links


It really works fine in Firefox, but not in IE 5+ (Windows). IE is always showing a 
border around the object tag. I can't hide the border via CSS even not with the 
deprecated attribute border="0".

Does someone have a solution or workaround for this problem?

Thanks!

I think, that's a problem of IE's rendering engine. I'm always using this workaround

    form { display:inline; }

to obviate that tricky gap.
