RE: [WSG] Browser loading images issue
Hi there, A bit left field, but I've had this issues *similar* to this before. It sounds like a network or ISP cache issue. Once it was a company proxy not grabbing the latest files from the webserver and serving up old code, the other time, an ISP was caching website data in their proxy to limit load on their webservers. In the 2nd instance, we had to call the ISP and have them manually remove the domain form their cache list. You may want to contact the ISP / hosting company to make sure the site isn't on a cache list. Worth a shot (the site looks fine for me here in New Zealand :) ) Paul *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

[WSG] Forms - Drop down width
Hello, I am working on a registration form and found a problem with how IE7 handles the drop downs. If I set a width in the CSS on the drop down, the text will not wrap and be cut off. I don't want to have to set a full width as the drop down is reminder answers and will be a bit long. Does any one know how to control the drop down width and to make it so the text wraps. Any help would be great! Example code is: form label for=questionReminder question:/label select name= id=question width=200 style=width:200px; optionSelect a Reminder Question/option optionWhat is the first and last name of your first boyfriend or girlfriend? /option optionWhich phone number do you remember most from your childhood?/option optionWhat was your favorite place to visit as a child? /option optionWho is your favorite actor, musician, or artist?/option /select /form Thanks Jamie *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
[WSG] RE: Forms - Drop down width
AKAIK drop-downs are one line only, i.e. there is no way to make text wrap. The usual solution is to set the title attribute of each option element so that at least the user can hover over an option to see its full text, but it's a sub-optimal solution really.

[WSG] Chrome and Safari
Hi, Seeing as though Google's new Chrome browser uses the same rendering engine as Apple's Safari, would it be acceptable to test browser layout issues in Chrome and assume the same CSS solutions apply in Safari?

From what I can tell Safari 3.1 for Windows and Google Chrome use exactly the same version of WebKit (according to their respective user agents anyway), so they should render identically.

RE: [WSG] Chrome and Safari
They are different engines from a JavaScript DOM perspective. So while they both support most of the same JavaScript DOM features, there are differences so you need to exercise the usual caution. I don't know what the differences are exactly but I've seen sites that have JS fail in Chrome that works in Safari 3.1.

[WSG] Question about presenting numeric percentages and accessibility.
Hi all, Just a quick question. I'm writing up a website for a simple brochure site, and the copy I'm provided with refers to something 1/3 of total or colour 2/3 of natural and so on. And it just occured to me, would Number Slash Number (ie; 1/2) cause any issue in regards accessibility, be it screen readers or poor reading or math skills (the correct term for this alludes me for the moment, I'm thinking dyslexia, but not sure that correctly accounts for all potential users). As such I wondered if the abbr tag might be appropriate, or if anyone has a better, more suitable sugestion?

Not from what I've seen - safari (pc based) can be fine, chrome not. I'd have to go through my history somewhat to link theese pages/sites but if you must have the proof...
