Re: [WSG] why liquid layout is important.
These $100 laptops, at the moment anyway, are only pre-prototype. There isn't even one fully functional version of it yet, and it will be a while until there is. Kofi Annan broke the handle of it when it was unveiled the other day, because he thought it was the real thing, but unfortunately it isn't, it's just a basic model of what it might be like. It's definitely a good idea, but surely, a poor African family would rather sell the laptop for money than keep the laptop if they had the choice...

This is a great article Terrance, and while interesting from a design /technology perspective, I think the human side of this story is moreimportant.I'm sure everyone who saw Doug Bowmans presentation at WE05 'Zooming out of the trenches' http://we05.com/podcast/ was incredibly moved by hispresentation - I heard stories of tears. After all, building tostandards is really about equity isn't it?

Re: [WSG] OT: Need recomendations for a JavaScript/DOM book
I would also recommend the Jeremy Keith book, dead easy to read and understand. There's more information about the book here:http://www.domscripting.com/ On 22/11/05, Steve Clason <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: On 11/22/2005 9:50 AM Ted Drake wrote:> I would recommend starting with Domscripting by Jeremy Keith.

RE: [WSG] Default display property of a TR
Taken from http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/tables.html
The default style sheet for HTML 4.0 in the appendix illustrates the use
of these values for HTML 4.0:
TABLE{ display: table }
TR { display: table-row }
...
Hope that helps!

What is the default 'display' property of a TR element?
Is there somewhere you can look this sort of thing up?
Thanks,

RE: [WSG] Help with accessible horizontal menu
Don't know if you've seen these before, but it might give you some help: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/dropdowns http://www.htmldog.com/articles/suckerfish/example/ -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Colin Meerveld Sent: 22 September 2005 12:43 To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Subject: [WSG] Help with accessible horizontal menu Hi I' am building an accessible horizontal menu. I have some problems with tabbing the menu. I tested the menu in IE 6.0, Firefox 1.05 and opera 8.0. IE and Opera doesn't support it at all and firefox only with javascript. It does navigate to the menu but the menu doesn't expand. It looks like CSS focus works different when you use the tab. In javascript onfocus and onblur works only in firefox. I like to have some feedback tested the menu with other browsers and perhaps some tips and tricks to solve this. Other things I also have to solve are: Work in IE without Javascript Submenu's (now only work in Firefox and IE but don't expand menu by tabbing) IE comment hack without probable solved when IE works without JS You can find the menu here: http://www.sportfotografen.nl/accessibility/projects/semantic/menu.html Kind regards, Colin Meerveld ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ** ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help **
