[css-d] Mysterious Black Line
Hi people: I'm not asking for anyone to root out a solution for me, unless you want. What I would like is IF anyone has seen this phenomena before and can point me in the right direction to find a solution. It has been pointed out to me that a Mysterious Black Line appears at the top left of my web page http://www.sperling.com/examples/menuh/ when viewing the page via Firefox 1.5.0.4 running on Mac OS X 10.4.6. This line doesn't appear on any other browsers or OS that I am aware. So, anyone have any ideas as to why and can offer a direction for solution? Thanks in advance for any replies. tedd -- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com __ 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/

i'm not sure how you didn't see it on ff 1.5 on winxp, but i see it
here on my machine. this got rid of it:
a img {border: none !important;}
hopefully that helps you start debugging!

The line is the top border of this element: a href=#narrowparagraphimg src=images/gifs/transparent.gif alt=Skip Navigation height=2 width=2/a Firefox doesn't obey set widths on images that don't load. The transparent.gif is not present in the given location. -- Elshttp://locusmeus.com/http://locusoptimus.com/ __ 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/

Hi people:
I asked:
It has been pointed out to me that a Mysterious Black Line appears at the
top left of my web page
http://www.sperling.com/examples/menuh/
when viewing the page via Firefox 1.5.0.4 running on Mac OS X 10.4.6.
cj said use:
a img {border: none !important;} -- which worked like a charm -- mondo thanks!
It was an easy fix, much better than I anticipated.
Els said:
This line doesn't appear on any other browsers or OS that I am
aware.
But it does :-)
Ok, I said that I was aware of -- I wasn't aware until now. :-)
Both Els and -Nick pointed out:
The line is the top border of this element:
a href=#narrowparagraphimg src=images/gifs/transparent.gif
alt=Skip Navigation height=2 width=2/a
Which carries the image border thing problem. I placed that there for
accessibility Skip Navigation, which as my Mom used to say No good deed ever
goes unpunished.
Thanks for all your most observant help.
Now, one last question.
Why does the background image I use not work in just the those two pages
showing my menu examples --
http://www.sperling.com/examples/menuh/
http://www.sperling.com/examples/menuv/
-- via Firefox 1.5.0.4 running on Mac OS X 10.4.6 and I assume others?
I've looked at it and the problem isn't obvious to me as to why it's happening.
Is it the IE conditional statement interfering with the basic css with regard
to background?
Thanks again for your time.
tedd

I placed that there for accessibility Skip Navigation, which as my Mom used to say No good deed ever goes unpunished. I place skip links outside of the viewport, and then let them 'pop up' inside the viewport when receiving focus, with :focus and :active (for IE) styles.

You can test that of course, by taking out that statement and check if the problem persists in FF. Which background-image are you referring to? I don't see anything in IE(7) that isn't there in Firefox, except for quite a few problems with overlapping texts in the content (on all pages). Opera also shows me the same thing as Firefox. -- Els http://locusmeus.com/ http://locusoptimus.com/ __ 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/
