Hi Brian,
There's no magic to it. Straight from the W3C:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/WD-css3-color-20010305#numerical
The format of an RGB value in hexadecimal notation is a '#' immediately
followed by either three or six hexadecimal characters. The three-digit
RGB notation (#rgb) is converted
Hey
Off the top of my head:
# cc9900 = #c90
# cc8800 = #c80
# dd2255 = #d25
Just take the 1,3 5 characters of the string.
If the 6 chr hex is not paired then this
#e6dfe2 as #ede will be the same as #eeddee

AFAIK, the shorthand notation will only work with twin pairs of digits

That is more than the paired sets I believe
When Brian mentioned older browsers/backwards compatibility my first thought
was about the web safe pallette.
On second glance at the question I don't know how relevant it was to the

Of course the web safe color pallette isn't very relevant anymore :)

Hi,
I'm wondering if it is possible to format the form buttons on a page
using CSS without adding classes or ids to the existing markup whilst
not affecting the other input elements.
I guess what I'm asking is, is it possible to style an input element
using only the type attribute?
Thanks in

When a screen resolution is 800 x 600 - what is the Actual width of
the browser viewing area (taking the window borders into account). If
the page extends beyond the depth of the page and the browser adds a
scroll-bar, what is the width of the browser's viewwing area now??
According to
Sounds good to me :)

Good day folks. I'm new to the list and it would be wonderful to be
able to submit a design 'a la' Zen Garden. Even if not accepted it would
really be an honor to submit a design amongst such prestigious web
designers.
I also look forward to learning alot from this great pool of experience.
some people that will use @import in a linked stylesheet do so in case
they happen to use a new stylesheet and want to call it by a different name.
this way, you only change the css file in the @import once, rather than
changing it in the header of everypage on the site.

maybe even hard code the pages that rarely change due to the needs of a site

From what I can tell the unordered list within the .column-in class has

The great thing about CSS is that you can specify what devices see what

for screen, and write one using the websafe variety for handhelds.
