[WSG] css
hi http://203.193.216.214/ I have an issue with this menu it works fine but the client has asked when you hover over top menu that the sub menu becomes visible and the stays there until you hover over than part of the top menu. If I was to move the mouse anywhere on the screen the menu sub menu will stay visible. I was thinking hover a {display:block} any help would be appreciated. But I am not sure how to do this in css.

[WSG] css drop down input
Hi everyone I have a input drop down field that I need to controls its width. I know I can put a class or id in the tags but I don't want to do it that way. Here is the css where I can get a text box to work but I can't get the drop down to do the same thing #menu input#s { width: 80%; margin:0px 0px 5px 0px; background: #fff; border: 1px solid #999; color: #000; } *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org ***

Thank you I have printed the email and have started to fix them. That is way more that I expected.

No. Regards, Paul __ Paul Novitski Juniper Webcraft Ltd. http://juniperwebcraft.com PS: Are you *sure* this is all you want to know? What does the question mean? Too much CSS for what? If you're concerned about the size of your stylesheets, the two supporting the home page are only 5 KB so I would say No. If you're worried about the number of CSS rules, perhaps because you're afraid it will be difficult to maintain or degrade browser response time, I would say flatly No. Or do you mean that you're worried that the site might be over-styled? I would say no, it looks simple and open (which I like). I'm not positive what over-styled might look like, perhaps with too much decorative detail, but your site doesn't have that problem. I do see some problems with the site most of which have nothing to do with CSS. (Yes, I know you didn't ask.) - Neither the image fader nor the calculator worked properly in my Win Firefox 3.6 or IE8. Shall we assume they're still under development? - The calculator breaks on text-only zoom enlargement. It would be simple enough to style its widths in ems so that it grows naturally with text zoom. - I dislike the fact that your nav menus don't have hover states or an indicator of which page we're currently on. - The footer menu text looks too high in the blue bar at normal zoom, and both menus quickly break cosmetically on text-only zoom. (It's easy to make menus with stretchable graphics.) - The demos aren't enough to sell your apps. I recommend that you take a few paragraphs to detail their functionality, scope, limitations, and flexibility. I don't want to have to download a script merely to find out whether I can use it; that feels pushy and invasive. - It's irritating that your demo pages lose the nav menus so the only way to get back to the rest of your site is by Backing up. Keep in mind that many people will land on a demo page right from a search engine or other link and you want to make it easy for them to browse your site from there. - I think you should let people view the demos immediately, either right there on your home page or on the Services page. Why do we need to go to a separate demo page at all? Far better to integrate the apps right into your own site as an implicit demonstration of their integratability. - Personally I think the delay on your fader is at least twice as long as it should be. Making people wait to watch a cosmetic effect is irritating. - Your home page headline Latest Product or Service is odd. First, the ambiguity of the headline is mysterious; after all, it's your site so you should know whether the content below is a product or a service which are two very different things. Second, you don't have a Products page listed in your nav menus, and the Product or Service featured on your home page is in fact a product, creating an unnecessary and off-putting confusion. Perhaps Services in the top nav menu should be P S. Any feed back would be great and you don't have to be nice. *Whew!* Good luck with your site.

Re: [WSG] I need a professional eye.
thank you do you mean the menu images? and I will look at the css On 30/01/10 18:55, tee wrote: The site is www.purencool.com I caught a border:hidden in one of the h1 elements. Not wanting to sound like a fool so I googled it first to see if this is something I have not learned to use after all these years writing CSS, but I find no references. The design is clean, pleasant to look at, but the jagged curve image spoils it. It looks more bevel than curve, I think it will echo well with your logo if it's smooth curve. And why is that emptiness between left column and main content? White space is important element for a design/layout, emptiness isn't. Also, the menu items at footer section is best centralized vertically within the blue bar. tee *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org *** -- bJohn Cullen/b purencool.com *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org ***

[WSG] playing with css
hi webstandards group. I have one question I can't seem to find and answer to below is all my css in a document I have created. It is xhtml transitional. My document works fine except when I add float:left; to my content div. It will not stay in the wrapper. I know that it must be a simple answer. I have tried reading the W3C on floating but got loss. I am trying to get the div to sit nicely next to menuB. Can someone explain why this is happening? =) body { background-image:url('images/back.gif'); color:#404040; font-family:Verdana,Geneva,Arial,sans-serif; font-size:.93em; line-height:130%; } /*document container*/ #wrapper{ width:800px; background-color:#ff; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding: 5px; } /*end of document container*/ /*document structure*/ #heading{ width:100%; } #menuA{ width:100%; } #menuB{ width:25%; } #content{ width:70%; float:left; } #footer{ width:100%; } *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org ***

Yes that is what I thought! But if I do that it makes it worse. It does not matter how many float lefts you place in to the css! see the example attached.
