Re: [WSG] A Semi-Transparent Background Color?
To Mike, with what I am currently applying this code to it won't work,
unfortunately. But, thanks for the link, it will be needed for a project to
be completed in the near future. ;)
To Luke, thanks for the link on the search, I will delve into it in a bit.
:)
To Lewis, Matthew, the link you gave me, gives me...somewhat...the desired
result, however, the code I am forced to apply it to cannot be changed, so
instead of just the background becoming semi-transparent, the whole thing is
transparent. :(
The site I am applying this code to, was built completely with tables,
sub-tables, sub-sub-tables, etc. Few, if any, (I believe only a few main
tables) have id and class attributes to them. A sample of the css targeting
for these tables appears below:
table table table td
{
background-image:url("
http://i667.photobucket.com/albums/vv31/learnTheGame/madeown/ohtransparency.png
");
filter:alpha(opacity=10);
-moz-opacity:0.1;
opacity: 0.1;
-khtml-opacity:10;
}
table table table table td
{
filter:alpha(opacity=100);
-moz-opacity:100;
opacity:1.0;
-khtml-opacity:100;
}
table table table table
{
border:0px;
}
I think the site itself was created with some sort of standard table-only
page creator...but, I cannot honestly say for sure. There is no way for me
to access any code other than what is located within the CSS style sheet, as
permissions will not allow me to. That being said, is there a way, using the
above CSS code, to not force all content within the individual Table (td)
tags to become transparent as well, only the background of the tables and
td's?

Hi Brett, I was wondering why there was no implementation to allow a semi-transparent background color using CSS? Would this worn text technique using an image work for you? http://www.khmerang.com/index.php?p=95 Maybe you can use a dotted color/clear GIF to perform as you want.

[WSG] Re: Html markup suggestions
Hi Shaun, I agree with you that the microformats.org offerings are less than helpful. One visits the site expecting that we are all going to work together to establish uniform mark up for elements that will be used again and again, but the information isn't presented as such. Rather it is presented as suggestions and results of "googling". This page has the most relevant offerings for naming markup, relevant to books: http://microformats.org/wiki/book-info-examples However, one would certainly expect more. Intuitively, one would expect the documentation to say "booktitle" and "bookauthor" and such... Perhaps once you complete your mark up you'll have something to add to the wiki examples. :) Jen * From: Porkandpaws Date: Tue, 10 Feb 2009 21:25:55 + Subject: Re: Html markup suggestions Hi All I am looking to mark up the following information relating to books Book title Author Cover image ISBN I would like to do this in the most semantic rich way that potentially could be programatically extracted There are no existing microformats suitable for this and I do not know of any drafts. Would anyone care to offer any suggestions Many thanks in anticipation Shaun *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org ***

Re: [WSG] Layering Images
So i think you just need to add a div with class="completed" in your relatively positioned for completed items and apply absolute positioning to that div. The div would have the background image of a "Completed" transparent png as you have it in your mockup with bottom: 0. Have you tried to implement something? I'm a little unclear on what exactly the question is and what exactly you need help with in the process.
