Re: [css-d] controlling type inside widgets

 I seem to have created widgets containing pic and text and which move as a 
 unit but am unable to fully control the type inside them.
 I can control right and left padding, but not the top, unless I put in some 
 silly value like 100px..
 
 Without the image in there, I seem to have a bit more control, so that points 
 a finger at my image code, but varying that doesn't get me what I'm after 
 either. Clearly something is affecting it but I am not seeing it.
 
 Any thoughts on this? Link to what I'm talking about is:

Any reason why you are floating the image ? Because that is your 'problem' – 
the padding on the subsequent block of text (p.widge) slides under the image. 
That is the expected behaviour.

Solutions: don't float the image, or add a 'clear:left' to p.widge

If you wish to allow users with bigger font sizes to read the information on 
your site, and if you wish to target your site for other platforms other then a 
specific standard view, I will start thinking about digging into the world of 
fluid css design.
I'm a beginner myself on those matters, but I believe that, according the your 
goals, that's the way your site, technically speaking, should go.

 
 Thank you, Erik Visser

The pages in the site seem to perform as expected in a Windows notebook in
the current versions of Safari, Chrome, Opera, FF, IE/9, and IE/8. If of
any concern there are some hasLayout issues with the navigation block in
IE 6/7.

Bset,
David Laakso

Floating that image was the only thing I tried that made those widgets line up 
horizontally, not vertically. I did elimination experiments and the widget div 
was the culprit (it appeared to me) and tossing in float made them line up 
horizontally.

Wrong as that solution is, that is how I arrived at it.

I can add a 'clear:left' to p.widge as you suggest.

Thank you, Philippe.

[css-d] Implement an effect in css

2012-05-20 Thread meera kibe
Hello, 
I am a budding web designer and in the process of learning a few tricks in css 
and css3.
I came across this site sittercity.com and hav egotten in love with the 
elegance and simplicity and beauty of it all.

I want to implement the following:

1. the gently folded corner effect that;s in the middle...Thanks to 
sittercity the small post ti like thing in the middle
2.If i have a image and i repeat it throughout as a background x and y . 
something like in gymboree.com and chage this for each page, is the rendition 
going to be heavy on the bandwidth and load up time

Thanks
Meera

[css-d] Minimum width for flexible page

2012-05-20 Thread matt1027
I've got a flexible page layout that uses a max width style to keep 
it from getting overly wide.



max-width: 980px;
width:expression(document.body.clientWidth  980? 980px: auto);


I see now that I need to also have a minimum width because it breaks 
if it gets too narrow.


What would be the best way to do that?  Is there something I can add 
to what I'm already using?  It works very well across all browsers.


Thanks,
Matt

Dunno. I is it possible for you to to put the page -- or a test page -- on
a public server and provide a clickable link to it in your post to the list?

Best,
