Your testpage shows the problem listed as Example 1

The fix is to rearrange the html, or by inserting an empty box, see 
the subsequent examples.


Thanks for the link. The solution was to add a clearing box (in 
conditional comments, by the way) after the AP box.


And I fixed the validation error too ... (thanks for pointing that out, 
dwain!)

A page with only "standards CSS":

[WSG] absolute positioning in IE

2005-08-28 Thread Anders Nawroth

Hello!

I want to position an element at the top right corner of the document 
(not the viewport).


In standards based browsers this is easy using
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 0;

But the problem is, on most of the pages where I use this the positioned 
element disappears in IE. I can't find out what triggers this.


The element is the second element in the document, so floating it right 
is not an option here.

[WSG] absolute positioning in IE

2005-03-29 Thread Mani Sheriar
Right now for the image in question you have: style="position: absolute;
top:-5px; right:5px;

In FF it appears as you would like it, but in IE it looks like it is a
bit too close to the right edge, no?

Try something like this: style="position: absolute; top:-5px; right:5px
!important; right:10px;

IE, since it ignores the !important declaration, will read 10px … all
other browsers will read 5.

Worth a shot if you still need to fudge with the exact placement.

Thanks for the tip.  The use of tables is my client's request.  He's too 
afraid to exclude those who won't be able to see it properly.  I tried 
to convince him otherwise, but he was firm.  The inline styles are just 
for my own tweaking purposes -- I'll put them in the external once I 
have it working properly.

Remove the spaces in the html for the header.   MSIE is making it 
taller, most likely because of those spaces. Make it:


Apart from that, while it does not answer your question, I can't 
see why you would use a table for such a simple layout, and the 
inline styles should really go into the external style sheet.

[WSG] absolute positioning in IE

2005-03-17 Thread john
Hello, group.
I'm having a heck of a time with a particular image that I have 
positioned on my site.  Because it has to blend in with three different 
background colors, I have it anti-aliased accordingly.  The problem is 
that in Firefox and IE (on XP) the image doesn't show up in exactly the 
same place, so the blending background is off-set.  Right now, it looks 
good in Firefox, but not IE.  Is there something I can do to guarantee 
that image's position on the site, regardless of the browser?  The 
guitar is the image in question, saved as a PNG-8 Transparency.
