Hi, Designer

Just a thought: why don't you give names like mainMenu and 
copyRgt (semantic) to your classes instead of names based on layout?

Isn't copyRgt based on layout as well?? Also to be more semantic -
copyRight would be better if you were to name that way.

By the accessibility point of view there's no problem in duplicating

same text) *must* point to the same pages.

I am interested to know what you think of duplicating navigation in the

I have a client who has requested it, but I do not, as a rule, include
duplicate links - I seem to recall there were some accessibility issues
with duplicate navigation links for screen readers.

What are the pros and cons regarding usability vs accessibility?

Is there a relevant standard I could quote here?

RE: [WSG] Valid characters in ID attribute

2005-06-07 Thread Ricci Angela

Hi, Chris

As from W3C: ID and NAME tokens must begin with a letter ([A-Za-z]) 
and may be followed by any number of letters, digits ([0-9]), hyphens (-), 
underscores (_), colons (:), and periods (.).  
But I'd avoid using underscore for id/class names... I've already had 
intermitent bugs with IE6 because of it (specially for links).

Hi,

I'm writing a function to do all manner of clever stuff and need to
create very complex ID attributes for links. As far as I know the only
valid characters you can use in an ID (and as a class name, too) are:

A-Z, a-z, 0-9, _, -

Is that true? Are there any other valid characters that I can use in my
IDs, without going the whole hog and creating a new DTD? Example of a
link, just to make it clear which bit I mean:

a href=index.html class=TheFunction
id=TheFunction_%6237%6882/34_923%4623%4-234+6+3-2343Click here to run
The Function/a

Many thanks in advance

I've created a pared down example to illustrate a problem I'm having

of how floats behave and I'm finding it frustrating...

http://www.capstrat.com/development/test-float.html

In this example, all code is wrapped with a containing div (yellow
background). The two side-bar divs live (code-wise) just before the
content div (dark grey backround), just inside the container div and are
floated right. The pull-quote (violet background) is the first thing
inside of the content div.

I'm expecting this to look the way that IE renders it: sidebars to the
right, pull-quoute in the upper-left corner of the content div.

In Firefox, the pullquote drops within the content to clear the first
sidebar. Why?

Can someone give me a little guidance on this?

I was wondering if anyone knew of a popular sites to promote semanitc or 
compliant (or good in general) websites?
Furthermore, if there was a site or an award that would be considered 
quite an achievement or endorsement for your work?

I have submitted several items to www.w3cSites.com, however despite the 
fact that one of our submissions (our creativehq website) has been 
hand-picked to be featured on its homepage and therefore giving us alot 
of traffic, it seems that in general that sites submitted to w3csites 
are uninspiring--too much focus seems to go on design, rather than the 
coding, and very few items seem to be a truely commercial nature; I 
would suggest that the wirelessdataforum.org.nz website I mentioned a 
few weeks back is much more worthy that the creative-hq site which won, 
for example.

(BTW, thanks to every one who commented on the wirelessforum site, much 
of your feedback is either now done, or before queued up to done over 
the forthcoming week.).

RE: [WSG] newspaper format

Hi, Giles

Just because if you do, you do not really separate content from 
presentation... If you say that a title is red, 12px and you call it red12, 
after the site's redesign, for exemple, the title will be Black, 14px, bold 
and your style name obsolete. Instead, call it title... or, better, use 
Hx... (in the case of titles, of course).

RE: [WSG] CSS Document layout/structure

2005-04-07 Thread Ricci Angela

Hi!

I always do the same: I group styles of the same nature, beggining by 
redefining default values where it is needed, and then by page structure, main 
blocks, navigation, forms, etc. And I always keep the same sequency for each 
definition (first positionning, dimensions, font, background, margins...), for 
exemple : 

{
position: (or float)
width:
height:
font:
background:
border:
margin:
padding:
}
etc

I believe it helps a lot in consulting the css.

Hi,
I am struggling to get to grips with designing with web standards and one of
the problems I am having is with reading style sheets.
Having sorted out the html code to make it more readable and modifiable it
seems that we have shifted the mess to style sheets. Many of the sheets I
look at are long, comment-less and very difficult to understand.
So that I don't fall into the same trap, can anyone recommend some reading
on how to make style sheet structure and layout both understandable and also
easily modified?
Thanks,

Charlie

Hi,

Your layout is not extensible. If you have a 800x600 resolution, the 
pub banner goes underneath the Mondotron logo box, and you'll have a 
horizontal scroll. Make one of the columns width in percentage so its size will 
be adapted for the resolution.

The site enables users to generate free wallpaper/background images for

Also, there's a small problem with Firefox 1.0 - a colleague gets a problem
with a file upload button on the http://www.mondotron.com/design.php page,
replicated at:

The actual button appears as a small block - haven't been able to replicate
it on other machines with same Firefox version.

Your suggestion is for input type=text. It does not work for input

RE: [WSG] Is there any way to set the width of a file input field in Firefox?

All you need to do is to give an id to the form field and define its 
width on the CSS. It will work for all browers.

input type=text id=ffield /

CSS: #ffield {width: 100px;}

Cheers!

RE: [WSG] Standards?

2005-02-01 Thread Ricci Angela


Hi, Bob

There's so many ways to argue and defend the pros of doing XHTML and 
CSS layout! First, it reduces bandwidth, it saves time (and therefore money ;-) 
in maintenance and updating, it is flexible and reusable.
Take a look at http://www.hotdesign.com/seybold/index.html. There's a 
very good and simple exposition of why using standards are a good thing 
(specially a part Go get your boss, that gives you the right arguments to 
explain that to your bosses).

Good luck!
Ge Ricci

Good Day everyone:

I have been doing the annual maintenance/update of a Holiday Home letting
site I've had for a few years, so this year I attempted to convert it all to
standards. It is now XHTML1 /CSS and most of it validates. (I say most
because there is a bit of Flash and some of it uses frames). I have kept a
couple of 'naughty' tables (as yet) because I simply haven't managed to
convert to a stable/reliable alternative, but overall I was quite pleased
with it.

Anyway, as I had recently installed Firefox on the PC's in the office of
this holiday business, I decided to show the owner how wonderful the update
was [ :-) ]. I explained about standards to this (non-technical) person and,
using  Firefox developer's toolbar, I showed her the abysmal results of
validating the sites of her competitors, and she was obviously pleased. She
seemed to understand the basis of 'standards', but after a few minutes
reflection she said:

I can appreciate that I am getting a 'quality' product, but from a
practical point of view, what am I getting that improves my business?  As
far as visitors to my site are concerned there seems to be no advantage -
after all, my competitor's sites may well be outdated, but they do actually
WORK, so my customers don't see any benefit.

Thought I'd pass this on . . .

:-)
