First off thanks heaps to the wsg stalwarts for organising a very useful
and informative demonstration and discussion. I had a lot of assumptions
confirmed, and a couple crushed. It was also valuable to actually see
how some accessibility tools are actually used.
Having said all of that, I was
I am trying to do an image rollover - easy enough yes - but heres the
problem
We are talking about images that are hard coded into a template system.
What I am thinking is doing a class where the rollover would simply change
the directory that the image is located in rather than the image name
Having said all of that, I was troubled by the discussion somewhat. It
reminded me of the state of web standards back in '99-'00. There was a
lot of talk about things like accesskeys and how they were a good idea
but without a standard they weren't much use.
I feel your pain. Accessibility
Yeah, that was what I was afraid of. I am looking at in the wrong way -
Okay, is there a method of perhaps adding an effect to the image that could
be turned on or off - like for example a border effect where top and left
are one color and bottom and right another color and on a mouse over they
I assume the image is surrounded by an a tag..
If that's the case, what the user is rolling over is not the img, but
the a.. so style your a:hover accordingly (ie. with a border) and you
should be fine.
add a class to the a to avoid borders appearing on all links, of course.

If what Ben said is correct, and the img's are nested in a's, too easy
mate!
Even if that isn't the case, and the img's are on their own;
Moz/Op/Saf(?)/Konq(?) will allow :hover to be used. Then there's just the
other 90something% of users out there
Which is where this comes in:
Here is what we are dealing with
?php echo my_back_link() . my_image_button('button_back.gif',
IMAGE_BUTTON_BACK) . '';?
The calls are as follows:
function my_image_button($image, $alt = '', $parameters = '') {
global $template, $current_page_base;
return

Thanks for all the help you have given me (everyone!)
one problem...

navigate around...
then goto CONTACT...
the bug happens ONLY in IE 5.5 and IE6
most other browsers it works fine...
the line below the tab CONTACT remains there...
Hi Chris,
I believe you may need to address all states of the a selector: link,
visited and active as well as hover (which you do separately):
#navigation a.current:link, #navigation a.current:visited, #navigation
a.current:active,
{
background-color: #FFF;
border-bottom: 1px solid #FFF;

Hi Chris,

#navigation
If you are trying to avoid the situation of a separate CSS background
property for each image you could create a single image with all of your
rollover states. You would then use the background position property to
shift this larger image into the correct position.
The advantage of this method
Having read my post I should point out that I mean a single image for
each button/rollover - not one huge image for everything on your page!
That would just be silly.

Hey everyone, I've been reading this list for a couple weeks and this is
my first time posting. I've got a question about something I've been
working on recently. I'm pretty sure it's a lost cause, but I might as
well ask.
I recently converted a directory lister script from using table tags
Is there an advantage of using css tables over regular tables? I'd just
use a normal one as that'll do the job well, with no need for
agent-switching, etc.
That said, if you want to use css.. you could just seperate the header
from the table, give it a seperate class and set the width
Just replace any necessary li elements with a block level item such as a
div, or something semantic in your code if it is there anyway. They may
not even be necessary - can't remember what the code was. The main
thing is the a link for the hover state.

Hey Peter,
No it didnt work...
I added the code like you said.
But its not the problem.
it only happens with the 5th tab...
even if there are 7 tabs, only the 5th tab is effected...
no matter what content is written in that tab..
its really eating at my sanity.
but yeah.

Hi Chris,
The big difference between the pages seems
to be the inclusion of the contact form. Try changing the id of your form element
for some reason that seems to work although I dont know why!
