Re: [WSG] CSS IE6/7 - what a surprise

2009-01-23 Thread Henrik Madsen


Thanks for your replies.

Non-expanding div issue

I removed the :after stuff altogether (which initially broke the  
layout in Mac browsers)


This fixed IE7:

*:first-child+html .catalogueMid, *:first-child+html .subscribeMid  
{ overflow: hidden; }


Adding the following styles to the containing divs fixed IE6:

overflow: hidden;
zoom: 1;

And all seems fine in Mac browsers too now :s

IE6 mysterious gaps / margins

Remains unsolved. See between the header and the top menu and at the  
top of the two coloured boxes in the RH column of the main content ???

 HI all,
I'm hoping there's a simple solution to my two problems.
All looks fine in Mac browsers x5 and IE8b2 (according to  
netrenderer) but not in:
IE6 - Mysterious margins are appearing between the header and the  
top menu and in both coloured boxes in the right hand column of  
the main content.
IE6+7 - the coloured boxes are not 'expanding' to contain the  
content (in this case a floated image in both)
I found this CSS as an alternative to a clearing div and it seems  
to fix things in other browsers - except those IE's:

#NameofContainingDiv:after {
   clear: both;
   content: ".";
   display: block;
   height: 0px;
   visibility: hidden;
}
Would anyone be able to have a look?

Re: [WSG] CSS IE6/7 - what a surprise

2009-01-23 Thread Todd Budnikas
ack.. sincere apologies. If you view positioniseverything.net, they  
use a class of clearfix for this fix, and I think it is poor practice  
to add mark-up to help IE behave. However, David is correct, as i  
copied and pasted without checking myself. So the :after should have  
been left out for the IE conditionals.


Again, sincere apologies for misinformation.

[WSG] IEv8 support for Data URIs?

2009-01-23 Thread Foskett, Mike
Hi All,

 

I was under an impression that IEv8 was to support Data URI format for
images.

Yet preliminary testing with IETester shows a lack of support.

 

Can anyone confirm if IEv8 is to support the format?

 

Preliminary test results for IEv8b2:

 

1.   The NOT IE conditional comment failed.

2.   Data URI failed.

3.   * hack failed.

 

Though in fairness these were at a glance, and not at all extensive.

They may even be (IETester) installation issues.

RE: [WSG] CSS IE6/7 - what a surprise

Most likely a lack of hasLayout triggers or layout context changes, or both.

For the coloured boxes, add overflow:hidden to the divs with classes 
catalougeMid and subscribeMid. This will force them into a new layout context 
and in turn expand the container to contain all elements. If you want it to 
apply to IE6 and IE7 only, use a selector hack:

* html .catalogueMid, * html .subscribeMid { overflow: hidden; } /* IE6 Only */
*:first-child+html .catalogueMid, *:first-child+html .subscribeMid { overflow: 
hidden; } /* IE7 Only */

I'd have to fire up a VM to look at the IE6 issue and it's late :)
