RE: [WSG] Forcing a vertical scrollbar in Firefox 3
Opera Web Standards Curriculum: http://www.opera.com/wsc/ It is interesting to note that they fail to follow the most basic web standard for implementing an image tag - specifying width and height - so that the page annoyingly jumps when the image is loaded. But heads up for only one validation error. Cheers, Jens The information contained in this e-mail message and any accompanying files is or may be confidential.

Hi Jen, Your comment may have come across as a bit more negative than it was intended, however: http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.fairfax.com.au%2Findex.ac (46 errors) He who lives in a glass house etc, etc... My opinion (and it is just that) is the we need to stop being so critical about trifling matters like this. I applaud Opera for their involvement in web standards and for their commitment to put a resource like this together even when it doesn't seem to offer a direct business benefit for them. Lets keep it positive folks. It won't be pretty if we start assigning value to people by how their sites look through the validator. Happy Friday :) Paul *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

I recently checked one page on my site and had 102 errors. Some could come along and say, What a lousy job, I'll never hire nor recommend him! Truth is, I had updated my cms and didn't check pages being valid as in general they are, but a bug in cms update made it wrap paragraph tags around my div's, which it hadn't before. I didn't notice for quite a while. Removing the p tags fixed errors. So judging would have been completely unfair and wrong...

[WSG] Forcing a vertical scrollbar in Firefox 3
I've always used:
html{min-height:100.1%;}
to force a vertical scroll-bar in Firefox for fixed width sites that are
centred in the browser window - it stops them jumping sideways when you
navigate between pages that are longer and shorter than the viewport.
With the release of Firefox 3 however, I've found that this no longer works
and I need to increase the minimum height percentage slightly:
html{min-height:100.2%;}
does the trick!

Re: [WSG] Forcing a vertical scrollbar in Firefox 3
You should try
html { overflow-y: scroll; }

html { overflow-y: scroll; }
Ah, back in the days I tried it Opera wasn't playing ball. I now see that (at
least Opera 9.5) understands this now.
Good stuff.

Re: [WSG] Forcing a vertical scrollbar in Firefox 3
I use:
*html{ overflow:-moz-scrollbars-vertical; }*
... and it works fine for me :-)

Drawback is of course that only Mozilla based browsers understand this.
