[WSG] IE7 padding, maybe?
Maybe I'm making this harder than it has to be... The webpage in question is located at www.preleads.com/index-dev2.php On every computer here in the office (on IE6 and FF1.5) the page displays fine. But, on one particular computer with IE7 installed the PreLeads logo in the top right has about one third of the bottom cut off. I understand why this is happening (the padding on #header) but do not know if this is just an IE7 problem if it is even a problem at all. Does anyone else see the cut-off logo? Does anyone know what is wrong? Thanks in advance!

RE: [WSG] IE7 padding, maybe?
I see your issue. Without doing the trouble shooting for you, I'd suggest invoking hasLayout on the header. The easiest way to do this that will not mess up other browsers is to add zoom:1 to the header and its contents one at a time until you figure out which is the offending element. If that doesn't work, make sure you clear the following element, whether it is the contents or whatever. I have found that IE7 sometimes needs hasLayout or float clearing where other browsers are ok.

RE: [WSG] IE7 padding, maybe?
It is feature complete, but they have fixed many bugs that were recognized after the beta2 launch. So, it will be better than beta 2. It does mean that generated content and stuff like that will not be in the final release.

RE: [WSG] IE7 padding, maybe?
Ted, Thanks for the suggestion - I'll try it out when I get a little more time. Don't worry about digging into it yourself as it's not that big of an issue. Thanks again! Jough I have cured things like this in IE7 by checking hasLayout and clearing issues. I haven't had the chance to look at your particular code. ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **
RE: [WSG] Opera 9 and standards support
Yes, I had a similar problem last time I tried to install Opera. All my pages were being rendered with some strange script font instead of Arial or Verdana, it was totally unusable. I tried reassigning the fonts through the settings but it made no difference, I couldn't track down any posts online about other people that had the same problem. I'm on Windows XP home version, all service packs installed. I also have the Adobe Font Folio installed, so in excess of 1000 fonts or so. -Original Message- From: listdad@webstandardsgroup.org [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ben Buchanan Sent: Tuesday, 27 June 2006 10:54 AM To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Subject: Re: [WSG] Opera 9 and standards support Not related to a site, but to the application itself: admittedly, I have quite a large number of fonts installed on my WinXP box...but for some reason, Opera 9 (and even 8.5) somehow get confused and think Copperplate is actually Verdana, and a rather gothic looking blackletter font is Tahoma. In short, it chooses the completely wrong fonts (both for page display and UI itself). Is this a known issue? Hmm, there was a font selection problem for machines with more than 1024 fonts installed; but that was supposed to have been fixed in the Windows version (see http://www.opera.com/docs/changelogs/windows/900/ right at the bottom). You could try the 9.01 weekly build and see if that helps - http://my.opera.com/desktopteam/blog/ One note is that if you had a beta installed, I've found it's a good idea to uninstall that beta before installing the final version (as opposed to upgrading over the top). cheers, Ben -- --- http://www.200ok.com.au/ --- The future has arrived; it's just not --- evenly distributed. - William Gibson ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help ** ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **

Still OT, but: yes, I have about 3000 fonts installed, and David mentioned that this may be an issue (though they thought they had fixed it). I'm going to try using something like Adobe Type Manager, possibly disabling some sets when not in use... P -- Patrick H.

Re: [WSG] Opera 9 and standards support
Andy Johnson-Cooper Opera Build 9 8490 Internet Explorer 7.0.5358.0 Mozilla Firefox 15.04 Hi I use the above browsers to check my web designing Acid2 is a test page, written to help browser vendors ensure proper support for Web and related standards in their products. http://webstandards.org/action/acid2 Opera is the only browser so far to pass this test , Standards compliant or reference rendering. both faces of the test are correct, however the other 2 browsers are not normally correct. seems to me all the hard work put in to developing standards, many long hours given free and the likes of Microsoft dont seem to take much notice. I design using xhtml and CSS there are so many issues across browsers but my favorite one now to use is Opera. Please give Opera a try Thanks Paul Bennett wrote: Holy crap! I'm not a personal user of Opera, but this attitude alone could change my mind. Kudos to you, David and to your company. If other (*cough* microsoft *cough*) browser makers would take this sort of position in supporting developers there'd be a lot less grief on the web. Well done, Opera. Paul I hope you all like Opera 9. As always if you have issues in Opera on your site feel free to contact me and we will help you find the cause of the problem. If there is anything that Opera doesn't support that you come across when writing scripts then I'll also see what I can do. With Opera 9 we've added DOM Level 2 Style, contentEditable and DesignMode which I think will be useful additions for many designers and support for Web forms 2.0 which is a peek into the future of what we are trying to achieve with the WHAT WG along with Mozilla and Apple. ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help ** -- I don't suffer from insanity.
