Jeff, depends on what you expect I suppose, I've read it - it's only small and light - but I like Jeremy's writing - very distinct and to the point which makes the book a great overview. Currently reading 'Introducing HTML5' by Bruce Lawson and Remy Sharp - which is brilliant :) Very friendly and

Re: [WSG] a Div tag won't pick up the height of a floated image?

2009-02-16 Thread Prisca schmarsow
Brett, not sure if I understood you correctly but this seems easily solved byt clearing the float with your navigation bar. If I read this right - you are talking about 2 different lists? One to be positioned next to the image, the other (navigation bar) to sit below image and list? in that case:

Re: [WSG] Is it a good practice to have 'Back to Top' link?

2008-09-29 Thread Prisca schmarsow
Hi, I'd argue that a 'back to top' link on longer pages is not only a good idea but also what users expect. I have had numerous clients who asked for this link on all pages - even on shorter pages as they feel it is part of a usable page. In my opinion, trying to predict whether or not people kno

Hi, I would suggest you use the popular sprite technique for this. Using HTML text as link text - applying a background image to the link, changing its background positioning on rollover (if you do want to use a different visual for a mouse over effect). I wrote a quick tutorial for my webstudents

Kevin, have a look at this sample page here: http://graphiceyedea.info/experiments/css/ul_sprite_rollovers/ Check out the image used for rollover (as it includes both rollover states, you could have more, of course) - and view the CSS for more info. Hope this helps :) Prisca On Thu, Jul 10, 200

Olajide, just had a looka at your page - the jumping happens because you are applying padding only on hover for all your links, essentially adding to their size... This is not ideal, in my humble opinion, as your text also shifts on rollover... If you however applied your padding to the main link
