[WSG] valid lightbox++ ??
I expect some may consider this off-topic, though it isn't really :- ). I recently tried using lightbox and then lightbox++ , the latter because it enables flash movies to be presented in the same way as images did in lightbox. However, the big pitfall is that in order to make it work the syntax has to be of this form: a href=images/gwelanmor.swf width=600 height=400 rel=lightbox title=Gwelanmor Internet - flash version img src=thumbs/tn_flash.jpg alt=flash page thumbnail width=250 height=147 /a You'll notice that the a href has a width and height specified, but of course that won't validate. I've googled, but found no mention of this. I wondered if anyone here has encountered it, or better yet, solved it? Any bright ideas to solve this non validation?

There's a jQuery plugin called metadata that allows you to put these kinds of options inside the class= attribute. An example is on this page: http://jqueryjs.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/plugins/metadata/test/index.html The tags that use a data= attribute don't validate, but the ones that use class= seem to validate. Maybe you could try to find a way to use the class= attribute to pass your options to Lightbox++, or use a similar plugin for jQuery that allows options to be submitted via the metadata plugin. This way you won't have to rely on putting incorrect attributes in your tags. -- -- Christian Montoya christianmontoya.net *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org ***
Re: [WSG] valid lightbox++ ??
I am not exactly sure if this way is the best. I think you should incorporate a new CSS rule into your CSS and specify with a class assigning to that lightbox link to it. With the flash, you would want to add to have the width and height to the CSS rule so it doesn't have to show up on the HTML validation radar. -Josh S.

[WSG] PopDown Menu NCFH
Hi All, It's been a while, but given the season, not only could I use the wisdom of the list, but the subject matter of the project begs a collaborative effort. The National Center on Family Homeless redesign requires drop-down menus, of which I'm not a fan, but are required. Would those experienced with Pure CSS Drop-Downs assist my effort? I've them started but the :hover disrupts the parent list. http://working.bushidodeep.com/dwd/ncfh/nav/ncfh_template.html Respectfully, CK *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org ***

Re: [WSG] PopDown Menu NCFH
Hi Chris, The best information I've found regarding pure CSS drop down menus can be found here: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/dropdowns/ The article does mention the fact that it won't work with IE6 (and gives you some javascript to get around it), but it's as pure--and as simple--as I've found so far.
