[css-d] rounded corners no color fill
Hi All, many examples have been on color filled boxes with rounded corners, few if any on simply transparent boxes with rounded corners. In http://www.availcompany.com/webdev/webcode/css_test11.htm 1. left float rounded box without color fill, how do you get the top border not to gap up? 2. how do you get right float to line up with the top of left box and to show rounded corners ? thx, dino __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
Re: [css-d] Smarty templates and CSS
Good point here. Might be useful if you find out such a need when you've already coded most of a project: let's say you started with a single stylesheet and the things baloons enough to make you wish you spliced it up according to the website section. Another example: you use CCs to serve a separate sheet to IE and, after testing with IE7, want that style only to target IE6 and below... Changing a template is way faster than rewriting scores of pages (less chances of errors, too). That said, there is nothing you can do in Smarty (or any other templating system) that you couldn't do in PHP or other scripting language. You either love or hate that way of doing things. sam foster wrote: Now, what about templating your CSS?

Re: [css-d] URGENT... Client's requirement changed... Rip and tearat an entire CSS now??
The discussion seems to have evolved around the benefits or otherwise of using CSS alone for layouts. Here's what Sam said of my noting that I found table layouts hard: On Sat, 23 Sep 2006 21:30:10 -0500, sam foster wrote: Well, I for one have several more years experience making layouts that way than with CSS. They also tend to be more forgiving - of overwidth content for example. Yes and no. But now I see where you are coming from. You later explained: I dont think I'm alone in thinking that CSS layout is harder than table layout - where the result is just measured in a visual comparison to the design comp. [...] See, I do not do layout professionally, and do not have to work from design comps. Now design comps certainly have their place, but I think that the web is _essentially_ a flexible medium. One of my first discoveries with CSS was the float drop. I found this very exciting, because instead of two small boxes getting crushed on enlarging text or opening the sidebar, one would drop below the other. The layout still worked even on narrow displays. Looking identical did not seem worth striving for. Since that discovery, I have found so much more practical uses of CSS that could not possibly done with tables that I have never even attempted another table layout. So I do understand why you used a table layout. It is a feasible solution to your problem - namely, replicating a rigid layout. I do encourage you to learn more about CSS, though. Browser support is improving greatly, while the variety of devices used to surf the 'Net is exploding. I think study of CSS will be well rewarded. Apologies if I'm just feeding the trolls. Not at all. Good design is all about informed compromise. There is no one perfect method.

On 9/19/06, Gunlaug Sørtun [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Lorin Rivers wrote: Do you have suggestions in that regard? http://mosasaur.dyndns.org:8080/austin_apartment.html Sure :-) Generally: don't lay out main parts of pages with 'position: absolute'. Everything that involves text will need space to grow, and that means other element must move to provide that space. Absolute positioned elements are independent of each other - unless they are nested, so they will simply overlap each other when they run out of space. Normal flow and floats will adjust to their non-positioned surroundings, so that's a much safer choice for most layouts. Quick test: copy and paste the following in the page head - *below* all stylesheet links... style type=text/css /*![CDATA[*/ #content,#thumbs,#footer{position: static; float: left; width: 560px;} #content {margin: 100px 0 10px 150px;} #thumbs,#footer {clear: left; margin: 0 0 0 150px;} /* kill the 'margin-doubling on floats' bug in IE6 */ #content,#thumbs,#footer{display: inline;} /*]]*/ /style ...and it will take over main parts in that page. The 'position: static' nullifies all your positioning from #content down, and then I turn those elements into floats and adjust them into place by using margins. I haven't perfected any of this - it's just an example, so there's plenty of room for more adjustment. This should give you some ideas on how to create a self-adjusting layout, and as you will see: I have not taken over all absolute positioned elements. You can of course turn everything into floats and/or normal flow, but that isn't really necessary. regards Georg -- http://www.gunlaug.no __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/ __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

Re: [css-d] Drop down (p7) menu hidden behind other CSS elements?
Sorry - you do seem to have fixed the issues we looked at yesterday - though David raises a good point about using pixels for your font-sizes. I see you have a new page that has select lists below the menu. IE5.x -6.x has issues with absolutely positioned elements and select menus. The buggers, as you now know, want to rise above. The good news is that this issue is fixed in IE7. The bad news is that there are no easy fixes for older versions. Most people compromise and move one thing or another out of the way. You could use script to hide the select menu when the CSS sub-menu is showing, but it's really not a good solution. __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

[css-d] stretching middle div for header
Hello, In the example below, I want: 1) the header div to stretch and use up all available space between logo1 on the left and logo2 on the right. 2) to specify a minimum width for the header so that when the window shrinks, logo2 doesn't drop below the title/nav, and title/nav don't drop below the sidebar. Does anyone have any hints on how this can be accomplished? I've tried some absolute position to get the stretch affect, but then I can't specify a minimum width.

[css-d] Newbie-ish question
This is a really dumb question, but so far the solutions I've come up with have felt more hackish than the original. I have this form which I'm trying to clean up. Here's a minimal version of the basic idea: http://www.thereeds.org/css/test.html The look is fine, if minimalist, but I dislike using nested tables to get it. So I'm looking for a CSS solution. The set of server checkboxes is created dynamically by JavaScript from the results of an AJAX query to get the current active set; I can do whatever I want with them, but it feels cleaner to have each checkbox and label grouped into its own container item, whether it's a td or an li or what have you. The two sets (active and inactive) need to have separate parent containers for the code to fill up, but I still want them to appear side-by-side on the page. Suggestions welcome. Thanks! -- Mark J.

Here's a minimal version of the basic idea: http://www.thereeds.org/css/test.html The look is fine, if minimalist, but I dislike using nested tables to get it. So I'm looking for a CSS solution. Hi Mark, I haven't come across many 'dumb question' on this list. (There have been some less-than-helpful answers at times :-); I hope this isn't one of 'em. I've modified and used the form found on Stu Nichols site with good results.

Re: [css-d] stretching middle div for header
Well, I can't really say that I understood your example css and html.

[css-d] Can I center a UL menu?
Although gaining experience with CSS, I consider myself a newbie. I would like to center a vertical menu with a column. -- | | | | | | Menu || | | | | || | | | |___|| | | || | | -- This is a rough mock-up of the goal. It should be possible to center the menu within the column. Centering the text-align attribute only causes all the menu items to center themselves in the list. Does a method exist to center the actual menu? My thought is to place the menu in its own div with the column, and then to center the menu div within the column. Can anyone more expert than myself comment on this proposed solution?

Re: [css-d] max width
http://blue-fly.co.uk/tri/test.php When I increase the text I would like the div to expand to fit the suckerfish dopdown in it. The problem is if I ser max-width and min-width the box does not expand. The element won't expand if you set 'width' in pixels. The 'max-width' and 'min-width' do nothing in your example. If you want the element to expand with font-size, then you must set 'width' in ems. You can then set a suitable 'max-width', and maybe also a 'min-width', in pixels if you like, or omit those properties. regards Georg -- http://www.gunlaug.no __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
Re: [css-d] Can I center a UL menu?
Have you tried setting each li to a fixed width and then trying text-align: center;? Are they links or just li's?

Re: [css-d] Drop down (p7) menu hidden behind other CSS elements?
Unfortunately my client is pretty set on the design -- literally to the pixel. Do you have a reference for the hiding script? I will suggest to them that this is a real problem, but I am not hopeful to have flexibility in moving this form. http://www.language-works.com/swimdesign/template-10.htm Thanks for all your GREAT help. anne - Original Message - From: Al Sparber [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sorry - you do seem to have fixed the issues we looked at yesterday - though David raises a good point about using pixels for your font-sizes. I see you have a new page that has select lists below the menu. IE5.x -6.x has issues with absolutely positioned elements and select menus. The buggers, as you now know, want to rise above. The good news is that this issue is fixed in IE7. The bad news is that there are no easy fixes for older versions. Most people compromise and move one thing or another out of the way. You could use script to hide the select menu when the CSS sub-menu is showing, but it's really not a good solution. __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

More a case of horizontal lists, really, but they're not links and I don't need rollovers or any of the other stuff that you normally see with horizontal list examples. What I do need is two rectangles with different colors in the same vertical space.

[css-d] Question re: rule syntax

Re: [css-d] Question re: rule syntax
From: Dean Champeau Can someone explain the difference between the following two selectors? ul#navmenu #navmenu ul ul#navmenu selects the UL element with id=navmenu. #navmenu selects the element with id=navmenu, regardless of its tagname. The only time #navmenu and ul#navmenu would be different is when you have an element with id=navmenu that is not a UL. In this case, #navmenu would select that element, but ul#navmenu would select nothing. #navmenu ul selects every UL element nested inside the element with id=navmenu. -Mike __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
