[WSG] Strange CSS problem
At http://theatomicconservative.typepad.com/ when I click on any of my
links the text at Subscribe to this blog's feed turns red (which is the
color is should change to when clicked.
Here is what I believe is the relevant CSS
.module a:link { color: #1e77f5 }
.module a:visited { color: #d22539; }
.module a:hover { color: ##1e77f5; }
.module a:active { color: ##1e77f5; }
ul a{
display:block;
width: 98%;
line-height:1.4em;
background-color:#1c1c1b;
border: 1px solid yellow;
text-decoration: none;
text-align: center;
font-family: arial, lucida console, sans-serif
font-weight:900;
}
ul a:hover
{
background-color:#00;

Hi Michael, It's not doing it here - FF 2.0.0.11 or IE 6.0.

Re: [WSG] Strange CSS problem
Interesting as Andrew pointed out the issue does not occur is IE 6. I
have it only occur in IE 7 which would make it a new IE bug. The
frustrating part of typepad is I cannot delete the original css
declaration only overwrite it with the new one.
I'm also new to learning firebug, how does it show you this is
occurring. I've mainly found it useful for javascript debugging.

.module a:link {styles.css (line 730)

I don't know why IE7 should hark back to line 228 of the css after another link
has been clicked, but I think that might help to offer some explanation -
Firefox doesn't behave like this, I'm pleased to note.
(Incidentally the Firebug add-on for Firefox made spotting this
straightforward).

I've mainly found it useful for javascript debugging. I didn't realise that typepad gave those constraints. That is frustrating! If you open Firebug in a new window and select the html in the left hand window, and css in the right hand window, then any html element that you click on in the left hand window will have all relevant (and over-ridden) css style rules for that element displayed in the right hand window. It's indispensable! I think somehow IE7 is recognising an over-ridden style as still being relevant once another link in the page has been clicked - I assumed it was the rule on line 228 - but that is just a guess. I hope that's of some help. Simon *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
Re: [WSG] Opera files antitrust against MS: standards one part
Do you forcibly work for the government or do you offer your services in the free market? Does your company hire the worst developers and designers or the best it can afford at the salary it is willing to pay. In the free market their tends to be high and low quality products based on the price the buyer wishes to pay. You can buy a Lexus or you can by Kia. All transactions are between a willing buyer and seller. I'd love Microsoft to follow standards, indeed I'm dealing with a IE bug right now that will probably be based on some standards violation, the question becomes should government be involved.

Aeh..you ARE aware of the various antitrust actions the government took to prevent MSFT from becoming an actual monopoly, don't you? Without government action in the past, the growth of Firefox, or any other such product, would have been difficult if not outright impossible. Of course, the playing field is still far from an idealised free market, but thanks to government checks and balances it's at least not at the level of tight stiffling oligopoly or monopoly.

Re: [WSG] Opera files antitrust against MS: standards one part
Again this isn't about supporting one company over another. It's about using the coercive power of government to control someone elses private property (which is what a business is) I don't like a lot of how MSFT does things. But they don't control the world. Frontpage died while Dreamweaver dominates the web design market. Not every website is developed in Visual Studio, some of us use PHP. Not every email is sent on an exchange server. I use Vista today and believe if MSFT keeps making such bloated OS's someone else will show up one day with a better mousetrap and MSFT will find itself losing market share in that area as well. Ask yourself where have you ever seen government controlled economies beat a free market one.

Re: [WSG] Opera files antitrust against MS: standards one part
And see what happens to the company in the market. 6 months ago I was let go because my boss thought I was a threat to his job. The company continues a spiral towards bankruptcy. They are the oldest company in their business and their chief competitor beats them every time they go head to head. They only get the business that company doesn't want. They are sued by their customers for incompetency on a regular basis. The free market does work. It's ugly and messy, kinda like democracy. I'd be against it but nothing else works better.

Re: [WSG] Strange CSS problem
It isn't the overwritten style. I verified that by changing the visited
link to green
.module a:link { color: #1e77f5; }
/*.module a:visited { color: #d22539; }*/
.module a:visited { color: green; }
.module a:hover { color: #1e77f5; }
.module a:active { color: #1e77f5; }
and now it changes to green when I click another link. Why would it
think its link was visited when it wasn't?

Interesting as Andrew pointed out the issue does not occur is IE 6.
I have it only occur in IE 7 which would make it a new IE bug. The
frustrating part of typepad is I cannot delete the original css
declaration only overwrite it with the new one.
I'm also new to learning firebug, how does it show you this is
occurring. I've mainly found it useful for javascript debugging.
I didn't realise that typepad gave those constraints. That is
frustrating!
If you open Firebug in a new window and select the html in the left
hand window, and css in the right hand window, then any html element
that you click on in the left hand window will have all relevant (and
over-ridden) css style rules for that element displayed in the right
hand window. It's indispensable!
I think somehow IE7 is recognising an over-ridden style as still being
relevant once another link in the page has been clicked - I assumed it
was the rule on line 228 - but that is just a guess. I hope that's of
some help.

ADMIN [THREAD CAUTION] Re: [WSG] Opera files antitrust against MS: standards one part
Guys, While the thread is interesting, do try to keep it on the topic of *web standards*. Some of the points which are either off topic or verging there include: - is Microsoft the boogey man? - should the government implement standards. The thread is still open, and it will stay that way if *you* stay on toopic! :) warmly, Lea -- Lea de Groot WSG Core Member *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
Re: [WSG] Do we just throw out the img tag
I assume you mean you are setting a background image using css - now what if you want another image on top - you use img tag for that. For example have a look at http://qps.shockmedia.com.au/About-QPS - if you resize the browser window you will see that the logo appears on top of the image on the left. (I am aware of the navigation wrapping issue).

RE: [WSG] Do we just throw out the img tag
Personally, I think the img tag has the correct semantics (and attributes) for an image. I'd just keep them for images in paragraphs and use css background for everything else.

No, we shouldn't get rid of the img element. There is a semantic difference between using CSS to put in an image (which is a background) and a normal image, which could be content. -- Christian Snodgrass Azure Ronin Web Design http://www.arwebdesign.net/ http://www.arwebdesign.net Phone: 859.816.7955 *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
