http://ecosphere-services.com
IE can't shrink width to content on floats when the content is floats.
Thus, IE needs a declared width on #locations.
That width must be in 'em' to accommodate font-resizing, but because you
have mixed pixels and em in there you'll never get it right.
Something like...
#locations {*width: 15.5em;}
...(hacked for IE-only - this way or whichever way you like) will be
close though.

[css-d] IE position problem
Hello, I posted this last week but did not receive any replies. I have since tried to work on it some more but I have not found the solution, so I thought I would try again. I am trying to convert this site from tables to a CSS layout and am having problems with the positioning of the navigation on the left and the search box on the top right. It looks correct in Firefox but not IE 6 or IE 7. You can see it here - http://www.misterinkjet.com/hp-inkjet-product-css.htm Thanks, Jennifer JGardner Designs Creating your e-Presence www.JGardnerDesigns.com __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
Re: [css-d] IE position problem
Hi,
for the left search box you need to reset the top margin of the form (IE has
different defaults than FF):
#topNavContainer form { margin-top:0; }
(you can also drop the non-semantic br after the preceding span, form is
a block level element)
for the left navigation:
on my screen i see problem both in IE and FF. imo you need to drop the
negative left margin (-29px).
hope this helps,
Serge Krul

Re: [css-d] IE position problem
Hi,
In CSS there are properties that are inherited (such as the font-family
property) and some that are not.
Padding is not inherited [
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/box.html#padding-properties]http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/box.html#padding-properties
To zero padding on all elements you could use the star selector:
* {
padding:0;
}
but it is not recommended, because browsers have defaults for a reason.
If you want to do a proper styling reset you should check this [
http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2007/05/01/reset-reloaded/ ] first.
I personally don't like these global resets. There are certain elements
(such as lists headings and paragraphs) that I'm always aware of their
defaults, but generally I'm fine with the rest of them.

Thank you!
I do have a question though. I thought by setting the padding and margin to 0
in the body that it removed all margins through out the document. I am
surmising from the fix you sent below that is not true. Can someone clear this
up for me?

Re: [css-d] IE position problem
Jennifer. Setting padding and margin to 0 in 'body' will globally remove all padding and margins until you change the situation. That is, if you do nothing else to padding or margins, they will never appear. As soon as you define a class or id and change its padding and/or margin, that definition will be obeyed within that class or id. Anything outside those definitions, that is in the body only, will obey the definition for the body. i.e. No padding/no margin. I hope this helps.

[css-d] Overflow and no
Any ideas on how to have an element's overflow property apply to some children but not to others? For example, I have a div that contains a table/grid that I want to have set to overflow: auto on a specific height. This way the results stay within a specific set of dimensions and do not push the rest of the layout into undesirable locations. The problem is that I also want to include some css tooltips for specific cells in this table/grid, some of which are large enough that I would like to expand them out of this standard boundary because they would be displayed above the layout content and disappear when :hover is not activated.

[css-d] validating css to account for accessibilty
Hello! I've validated my code, and wanted to be tidy and validate my css, so I tried using http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/ ... and it validates, but has warnings. I understand why, but it's so confusing how all the background-colors need to be accounted for. Is there some handy-dandy easier way, than to list each and every one with a background???

[css-d] Questions regarding how to make selected li red with css
Hi Everyone... I have two questions and I'm hoping someone here might know the answers... I'm not that experienced with css, and am very curious if anyone out here would know how I can achieve the effect of highlighting the selected item on my list in red instead of blue. The page is at http://www.octos.org/ooth/2new.htm I have validated it and noted that the function that I'm using that will allow me to put the document in the window immediately to the right uses 's and that is throwing errors with the validator. From what I can tell there are no other errors except those in the AJAX script. Are there any hints for having the script tag elements validate or will they always give errors? Much thanks for your assistance and consideration.

The page is at http://www.octos.org/ooth/2new.htm
This should do that--
#navcontainer a:hover {
background-color: red; - ::red
border-bottom: none;
color: #FF;
margin-bottom: 0;
text-decoration: none;
}
I have validated it and noted that the function that I'm using

Tidy Online is helpful. Correct what Tidy does not correct manually.

I understand why, but it's so confusing how all the background-colors need to be accounted for. Is there some handy-dandy easier way, than to list each and every one with a background??? Setting color every time you set background-color (and vice versa), and setting background-color every time you set background-image, is the only truly robust approach in the face of unpredictable markup and browser configurations. Also, make sure when you set :link colors you also set :unvisited too. You might find this less cumbersome if you generate your CSS with preprocessed templates, allowing you to define particular colors by name or function or even group whole declarations. Simple example using Perl: http://dorward.me.uk/www/css/inheritance/ Note also that transparent and inherit are valid background-color values, although the later is poorly supported by Internet Explorer 6. Good ways to test how such CSS works in practice include: 1. Change your default colors to white text on black. 2. Try one of Opera's High Contrast View options. 3. Try IE and Windows XP in High Contrast mode. 4. Disabling images. In terms of CSS and accessibility, note that Meyer's reset CSS, which you're using, unsets the default keyboard focus ring (outline: 0;), but you have not explicitly set any keyboard focus outline as a replacement. See http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#navigation-mechanisms-focus-visible for Web Accessibility Initiative's emerging guidance about ensuring keyboard focus is always visible. For more on CSS and accessibility issues see: http://24ways.org/2007/css-for-accessibility and http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG10-CSS-TECHS/ and http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/ Hope that helps. -- Benjamin Hawkes-Lewis __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

Re: [css-d] IE position problem
I think it's a bit more complicated than that. I found this statement online: There are some cases where the inner selector does not inherit the surrounding selector's values, but these should stand out logically. For example, the margin-top property is not inherited; intuitively, a paragraph would not have the same top margin as the document body. I completely disagree with the logical and intuitive sentiments, and find browser implementation of margins and padding to be, among other things, inconsistent. I did a bunch of testing about a year ago and ended up using Tantek's stylesheet (undohtml.css). http://tantek.com/log/2004/09.html#d06t2354 http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2004/09/15/emreallyem-undoing-htmlcss/ http://creatingdrew.com/2008/08/6-popular-css-reset-techniques/ --- Alyda From: Alan K Baker [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: Alan K Baker [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Tue, 7 Oct 2008 17:38:42 +0100 To: css-d css-d@lists.css-discuss.org Subject: Re: [css-d] IE position problem Jennifer.

[css-d] Website Browser issues and Coder??
Hello, I am new to this ground and fully understanding the coding world. I hired coders through rentacoder.com, and they have been very difficult with me. Several months ago I mentioned that my site looked different on my friends computer. They told me that it was her computer settings and this was the reason why and not to be concerned. Well time has gone on and come to find out about 1/2 of all my friend can not view my site right. I mentioned this concern again to the coders and they told me, that it was not an issue. I then found this response strange so I went online and found a site that my site showed that my site was distorted on other browsers about 1/2 of the time. So I then asked them to fix and they told me that they would not do it. They have done many unethical things from holding me up for money (via paypal) , they also asked for payment in full prior to the completion of the site (by 1 month), missed deadline, forgot to mention holidays, office closings, power outages, etc... something always is coming up so that they can not work. And if I want them to I work had send more money through paypal. Not to mention that they did not like that I was a women and always called Americans stupid, meaning me I am sure?? So what I am saying is that I have moved on from them, yet I still have this browser issue and I need someone to help me. Please help I must have this work so that I can stay home with my disables son. They knew this and this is why I think that I would do anything that they would say; I know that it was not smart.

Re: [css-d] Website Browser issues and Coder??
Hello. There are many people who are scammers and poor coders on RentACoder and people may be difficult with you HOWEVER Lets take it point it by point. 1) Yes your site may look different on your friends computer, also it may be because of her settings/ Operating System/Browser. Normally this should not have happened BUT those coders may have done a poor job on your project. 2) Since you are the client, every issue you say can be an issue, thats why it's RentAcoder, and for those are the messages. IF you do not agree on something you can just enter in an arbistration procedure and everything will be set by the Arbitrators (RAC employees) 3) It's your problem for paying them IN FRONT, RENT A CODER SPECIFICIALLY SAYS THAT YOU MUST NOT PAY ANYONE PRIOR TO WORK COMPLETION OR MILESTONE COMPLETION. If you did that then it's your fault and your fault only. And since they got yoru money they have no interest in doing it. 4) You had the power to stop all the things they did to you via the RAC arbitration process, which you should have done. Also it SAYS EXPLICITLY on RENT A CODER NEVER TO SEND MONEY THROUGH PAYPAL. thats why there are safe escroew systems in place. because things like this wont happen. This was YOUR fault for not reading all the rules, and frankly because you sent money through other means rather then a RAC escrow your account can be banned from Rent a Coder. As for calling the americans stupid, most americans are not fine attentive to detail and some are not very computer literate (especially those in their 30s-40s) which is normal however. 5) Asking for help without PAYING for your help is bullshit, why people should help you out when they have nothing to gain. just for helping sake.

All: Thanks for the look-see and feed-back.
Georg: I think I have the transparent borders issue fixed. Would you
please make another quick check?
Borders ok. IE6 need a little bit more help though.
1: There's the extra white-space spacing between list-items in the
right-hand navigation. To fix without negative side-effects, add a very
precise 'hasLayout' trigger to anchor...
* html .rightcolcontainer li a {width: 92%;}
2: #viewcart doesn't shrinkwrap so the button ends up on left side in a
full-width #viewcart container, and the margin-doubling on floats bug
is also bugging IE6. To fix, add...
* html #viewcart {width: 150px; display: inline;}
That's it. Don't think I have missed any IE6 or IE7 bugs in there :-)

Georg

[css-d] x-tra padding and squished graphic
Hi! In IE7, this page: http://www.blackfootchallenge.org/rebeccatest/test3.html shows about an extra 10 px padding to the right of the Accomplishments sidebar on the right of the page. Also, the icon of the blue wave in the box where it says SUBSCRIBE Stay Informed on the left is squished vertically. Any ideas on how to fix these issues?

Will look much better if you delete this...
#righttable {
padding-left: 0;
width: 190px;
}
...in the 'ie_test2.css' stylesheet.
Deleting the entire ie-only stylesheet will also work for that page,
but maybe you need some of it for other pages.
Also, the icon of the blue wave in the box where it says SUBSCRIBE
Stay Informed on the left is squished vertically.
You can add...
#onlinegiving img {
position: relative;
}
...to make the overflowing part of the image visible, which will make it
look alright in IE7.
Also a good idea to check validity...
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://www.blackfootchallenge.org/rebeccatest/test3.html
...and fix the really serious errors - like the ID that is used more
than once.

Re: [css-d] Overflow and no
At 11:14 AM -0600 on 10/7/08, Jack Blankenships wrote about [css-d] Overflow and no: Any ideas on how to have an element's overflow property apply to some children but not to others? For example, I have a div that contains a table/grid that I want to have set to overflow: auto on a specific height. This way the results stay within a specific set of dimensions and do not push the rest of the layout into undesirable locations. The problem is that I also want to include some css tooltips for specific cells in this table/grid, some of which are large enough that I would like to expand them out of this standard boundary because they would be displayed above the layout content and disappear when :hover is not activated. Thanks, Jack You might try creating a Class definition with the overflow setting you want for the special cells and add the class= parm to those cells. This SHOULD override the setting inherited from the div. -- Bob Rosenberg RockMUG Webmaster [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.RockMUG.org __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
