[WSG] DocType Given is... Document Looks Like...

2008-09-03 Thread Cole Kuryakin
Hello all -

I've got the following doctype at the head of each of my pages:

http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";>
http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; xml:lang="en" lang="en">

I take great pains to validate everything I do on every page, but, even if
the page shows as valid (using FF's HTML Validator extension - or Web
Developer extension. I can't remember which) when I view source on a "valid"
page, I always get an info box that states:

Info: Doctype given is "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
Info: Document content looks like XHTML 1.0 Transitional

I don't think that this is - by any means - any reason for me to be worried
about my code/structure/et. al, but I've always wondered why, if I feed a
xhtml 1.0 STRICT doc type why the validator always says that my stuff looks
TRANSITIONAL?

Am I doing something wrong? 

Any insight would be appreciated.

Cole

Thanks for replying Kepler,
 I've arranged to put the two versions up for viewing.
 The relatively positioned 's is at;
 http://distributeit.com.au/wsg/relative-index.html
 and the absolutes are here;
 http://distributeit.com.au/wsg/absolute-index.html

 The issue with the "More Info" buttons in Opera disapears when I
 removed the absolute position call in the CSS...but so do the images.
 And I'd like to advise that the call in the head of the HTML for the
 CSS is taken from Jon Hicks' presentation "A Day in Deployment", I
 thought it was a good method although I am aware that the Yahoo front
 end optimisation people advise that the @import rule is not perfect.
 For anyone not aware of the Jon Hicks presentation, you'll find it
 here;
 http://www.hicksdesign.co.uk/journal/design-to-deployment

 Many thanks

Re: [WSG] Google chrome... Coming very soon...

2008-09-03 Thread Michael MD


Could someone tell me if it has Google Download Accelerator or other
Google Toolbar features built in? I'm just wondering how much is under
the hood...



not sure ... but poking around its directories I saw one for google gears...
.

btw I tried to save one of thumbnail images it generated on its "Most 
visited" page

- but ...  "save image as" doesn't work!
(and if I try to open it in another tab it dumps it out as if it were text 
... binary gibberish - wrong mime-type perhaps? ... and "save as" is 
disabled )

... it looks like they have a few bugs to fix...

[WSG] Position and peace of mind

2008-09-03 Thread John Unsworth
Hello WSG'ers,
I'm experiencing some frustrations with a current project and could
use some experienced opinions. Warning though, I might get a bit wordy
as it's going to be a multi-part question, as I'd like feedback about
my chosen process. Also I would class myself advanced beginner, as I
only been in web dev for about a year.
OK, it's a new homepage for my employer. It's basically a series of
rectangular 's 980px wide (wrapper is 1000px with 10px padding
right and left) but varying heights, down the page, from top to bottom
appears as;
1. Header
2. Navigation
3. Banner Photo
4. Five even sized boxes with current product promotions floated in
their div left to appear horizontal across page
5. Two (2/3 page and 1/3 page) boxes for general introduction and
client login (again horizontal)
6. Three even boxes for everyday products and customer contact (ditto
the horizontal)
7. and final footer with copyright notice and repeated links

My problem has arisen because I decided that I should write the markup
so that steps 4 and 5 occur the other way around. So as a percieved
accessibility benefit (even though I've included a 'skip to content'
link at the top of the page) a screen reader would not have to skip
through the promotions first, but read the introduction content, then
the products. Concurrent to this I've attempted to write the CSS up as
an elastic layout in em's should a user need to resize the page. I've
also used the Eric Meyer reset, and set body font size to 1em (16px)
and line height to 1.3em. I broadly understand the in and out's of
em's, but am novice at implementing it.
The problem I initially encountered was that when I used relative
positioning for steps 4 and 5, to visually re-position them the
margins between 4,5 and 6 varied across browsers. I was able to live
with that, but the graphic designer of the site couldn't. This
variation in margins also occured when trying to evenly space the five
boxes of step 4 across the page and achieve alignment left and right.
I tried %'s instead of em's, and for testing purposes without changing
the rest of the layout, used pixels, but it never quite went flush to
the edges.
Then I tried absolute positioning with all the div's below the banner
photo, and at least on the mac, across Safari 2, FF3, Opera 9.5, and
Camino 1.6.3 (the five boxes were not entirely solved, but the layout
was evenly spaced) my problems appeared to be solved. But then I tried
it on a PC with IE7 and steps 4 and 5 were just plain gone???
I've also encountered another quirk that just appear in Opera when I
tried to use image replacement for some links as buttons, that's
causing the page to scroll horizontally, but given our likely audience
I think even the designer might be able to live with that.

So my questions to the group are;
Was the decision to write the markup in the order I did correct or
pedantic? Because if I didn't then I wouldn't have the layout issues
I'm having I'd guess.
Was it a mistake to try and create an elastic layout in em's and
expect the entire interface to expand? In this case might it be better
to use pixel for width's but em's for font and % for height and allow
the boxes to expand with the text? Or should I just stick to pixel's
all round.
Is there a 'golden rule' about repositioning sections of markup out of
the order they're written, and why was there variation with the
margins across apparently very well behaved browsers?
Finally why did the absolute position boxes just vanish in the IE7? I
realise this might be too vauge a question, but I'm not even quite
sure what my search terms might be trying to find the answer to this
via Google. Generally the whole IE thing I ignore until required.

Wow! I didn't intend to take so long, but would appreciate feedback
even if it's just on one point.
Sincerly,
John Unsworth

Re: [WSG] Google chrome...

2008-09-03 Thread Aldona

Christian,

No it doesn't come with Google toolbar. I'm not sure if Google 
Accelerator is built in without the user knowing but it did load the 
Acid 2 test really fast (and passed it). I did a review if anyone wants 
to read it. I wondered the same thing about the Google toolbar and am 
hoping they provide the ability for addons like firefox. (eg the 
del.icio.us extension!).

PS- Thanks to those who replied for my image display float issue. 
Display block-inline worked great but not in IE (darn ie) so I'm still 
thinking. Inline worked if I didn't want a border around the image and 
caption so thanks to those who helped me out. :)

got the file twice - apparently intact and sane, but wouldn't run - with

Hope this helps.

No, it has a different JavaScript engine, and doesn't support a

shadow, @font-face and a few others.

no browsers support border-radius.  It does support -webkit-border-

-webkit-border-radius renders just fine. Running Chrome on XP on

Without WebKit's anti-aliasing as far as I can tell from Twitter  
posts. I'm wondering if this is due to webkit using platform specific  
code for things like this and text-shadow, as being a reason why they  
are not in Chrome (Safari on Windows has a compatibility layer), or if  
it is a older branch.  I'm thinking more the former.

no browsers support border-radius.  It does support -webkit-border- 
radius, as far as I know (I'm running on Mac and parallels doesn't  
work on my 64-bit Vista, and I can't be bothered to do the few hours  
re-install process of Vista)

RE: [WSG] Facebook downgrading support for IE6

2008-09-03 Thread michael.brockington
I would also like to point out that Facebook have a different business
model from the majority of web sites - they have little to loose by
excluding IE6 - they are not a shop, they are not trying to break into
an existing market, they have a greater bias towards the home user than
the corporate, etc etc.

I don't think very many other sites fit that profile, certainly nothing
that I am in involved with does.

Mike

This may be acceptable for facebook if thier statistics indicate a low
amount of IE6 users, however I think this is hardly acceptable for a
majority of my audience, which includes many proffesionals who still run
IE6 so they can use company intranets, etc.

I would love nothing more than to not have to worry about IE6 however I
think that day will be a very long day coming.

No, it has a different JavaScript engine, and doesn't support a

Google Chrome wasn't working for me in the office either, but I  
think its all due to the firewall and proxy that we have setup here.  
It couldn't seem to negotiate between the proxy and the installer. I  
just hooked it up to an outside ADSL connection (my work PC that  
is), and typing this Email through Chrome right now :)


Its a brilliant browser, a true innovation to the way we use the

It's Webkit, so rendering issues should be insignificant. Any
differences will likely only come out if you're doing complicated
JavaScript.

Not likely. A large numbers of them use IE6 because their Intranets were
designed for IE6 and not browsers. Since Chrome is WebKit based, it
isn't going to render the Intranet pages as desired.
