RE: [WSG] css buttons only hot over text in ie
'That declaration *resets* the first one and you end up with anchors that are block elements, but *not* floats. That would be fine with most of the browsers, but feeding IE with a height declaration makes it *expand* the anchors full width (unless they are floats).' Hello, that explans why the width gets blows out. But i cant get it to work, I still need one float right so i tried it individually with each one. The same width problem occured when i set the height to 1%. Anyway your first solution of display: inline-block; worked like a charm! thanks thierry ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **
[WSG] CSS 3 color module and deprecation of system colors
Apologies for cross posting, but: could anybody shed some light as to why system colors have been deprecated in the CSS 3 color module? http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/CR-css3-color-20030514/#css-system In my recent testing on Windows browsers, I found them to be fairly well supported and would posit that they can have quite a valuable role to play in creating accessible style sheets that match the user's set colour scheme / preferences (e.g. if a user has set their Windows environment to High Contrast, a web page can be styled to follow that preference).

The CSS WG believes erroneously that they can be replaced by the new appearance property (which is not at all widely supported, to say the least). Several previous attempts to convince them that they were wrong have failed, but by all means please to do send your remarks to www-style, perhaps they will eventually be convinced? -- Robin Berjon Senior Research Scientist Expway, http://expway.com/ ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **
Re: [WSG] Evaluating Web Sites for Accessibility with Firefox
does anyone have an url for this? tried finding it on moz and couldn't and really would like to try it out. tia Donna Rick Faaberg wrote: On 8/23/05 10:25 PM dwain alford [EMAIL PROTECTED] sent this out: i just downloaded the accessibar at the mozdev web site. it's got a built in reader; so if you have speakers or a headset you can hear how accessible your page is in a reader. it's not superior quality audio, but it definitely gives you a sense of what's on the page. the tool bar is for folks with accessibility issues. maybe i'm getting into gadgets for accessibility, but as a visual artist and web designer, i'm caring more about standards and accessibility more each day. check it out, it's a cool firefox/mozilla extension. Is there some way to install and execute on Mac OSX? Anybody has done it?
