Kindly enumerate to us what meta tags must be retained and what tags that we
can do without. This I presume is based on the current standards. Thanks.

 No.   Meta tags are all but depreciated at this point.  he only common
 one still being used is the langauge/charset type.

Most possibly getting off topic but meta name=description content
=meta description here /  WILL be used by google for the description
under the title in search results.

I’ve had a quick look at your code and noticed this line: div
align=center above the table... tag. Maybe this is the cause of the
problem?

Subject: Re: [WSG] Disappearing positioned footer in IE7 - works in IE6

Hi,

IE 7 now supports the *html hack, so the 'position: relative' style is
bein
g
applied. You can still add hacks for IE 6 and/or IE 7 but it's tricky..

If you need to send something to IE6 and nothing else: use the
underscore
attribute hack ( border:1px solid pink;)

If you want to send something to IE7 AND IE6, use the attribute hack
(*border:1px solid black;).

If you want to send something to IE7 and NOT IE6, use a combination
(*border:1px solid black;  border:1px solid pink;).

Try adding an underscore in the IE 6 class...

*html #bottom nav {   /*Enables the footer to be positoned below the
wrapper in IE6*/

 position: relative;

bottom: -75px;

right: 25px;

text-align: right;

width: 100%;

height: 50px;

}

  Hello All -



 I was having an absolutely-positioned footer problem in IE6 which was
 fixed with the following:



 #bottom nav {/*Compliant Browsers*/

 position: absolute;

 bottom: -75px;

 right: 25px;

 text-align: right;

 width: 100%;

 height: 50px;

 }



 *html #bottom nav {   /*Enables the footer to be positoned below

 position: relative;

 bottom: -75px;

 right: 25px;

 text-align: right;

 width: 100%;

 Yes, well, now that IE 7 has come out the footer ***Poof!*** vanishes
-
 like it did under IE6 previous to the implementation of he above *html
 declaration.



 Could someone give me a lead on what to do about this issue in IE 7?



 Unfortunatly, I am not allowed to use conditional comments to issue
 version specific declarations - which makes problems

 Subject: Client Side Development Process
 
 Hi all
 
 I wonder if anyone can offer some advice. I've recently landed a new
 development position within a very credible digital agency as part of
 their client side development team.  One of our things to do is
 develop a rock solid development process we work through for every
 project.  Traditionally we don't get our hand dirty until a client
 signs off what the design team have produced, however we are going to
 try to change this and get involved from an earlier point in the
 project.
 
 Would anyone like to offer any advice on setting up this process, and
 any advice on things to take into consideration for inclusion of the
 process. It'd be great to compile some documentation, and share it
 with the rest of the community...
 
 We're starting from a blank canvas so any advice appreciated.
 
 Kind Regards

I used the following as the foundation of my current approach to style 
sheets.

http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/sample.html

However, I'm told that my code is therefore not XHTML compliant because 
of my use of uppercase. So who then is HTML4 relevant to?

If I am understanding it correctly, thats not meant for page 
developers/designers to base from, its meant for browser developers to 
start from.
You can expect that the default styles supplied by each browser will be 
something like these.
For a web developer to start with something like this would put an 
un-necessary large download on each page. (Yes, yes, I know - caching - 
but its still redundant)


However, I'm told that my code is therefore not XHTML compliant because 
of my use of uppercase. So who then is HTML4 relevant to?


I don't really understand the question.
As written, the css shown will work under HTML dtds (and XHTML 
transitional? I'm not sure as I never use it) but not XHTML strict DTDs.
To make it work correctly for XHTML strict, you should change each tag 
name to lowercase.

Its a trivial change.

HIH!

No, it will not work under XHTML at all.  The DOCTYPE is irrelevant, 
XHTML is case sensitive and uppercase element selectors will not match 
anything in XHTML.  It will only work for text/html.

name to lowercase.

There's little point for authors to use that stylesheet, it is intended 
as a guide for browser implementors and was supposedly based on the 
default styles applied by browsers at the time.  (Although there are 
still many differences between that stylesheet and real world browsers)

  a href=#Back to Top/a

Is there an issue with using this for screenreaders?
Wouldn't they activate this link and nothing would happen?
Does this work effectively across browsers to scroll the page to the top
though? I've found it works on firefox, ie, opera on PC (winXP).

Thanks,

  Whoa.  Stop right there.  How can CSS stop you from linking to an h1
  that's got an id?

 It depends where the H1 is positioned.  If it's not at the top, the
page
 won't be scrolled to the top.

It's been a while since I've sat down with a screen reader, but from my 
limited experience with JAWS the link would be announced as a same page 
link (or similar) and activating it would indeed move the 
cursor/caret/focus to the top, as expected.

I tried to login with my details, and it
wont allow me. It also wont email me the password even after trying all three
emails I have. Can you please
either resend my password or take me off the list for receiving the emails
below  I dont find these emails helpful as they only show an

Forgive me, but that seems to be a complicated way of
doing things...

Why not break the image up into 2 parts and make the entire left half an a:href
with css hover? The absolute positioning doesn't seem necessary.

That's what I get for not trying the solution before profoundly pronouncing it. 

This one is better. If I remove the absolute positioning of the
#headerbanner the headerimg clips. I didn't take all the images
just the headerimg. There is still a scroll bar but the img clips.
Haven't played with min-max or other absolutes to see if that affects
the scroll.

Only way I was able to eliminate the scroll is to make the headerimg a
background image (as someone previously suggested). The image has a
width so when it is used in the foreground that width becomes the
minimum width the page can be reduced to. A page will only shrink
to the size of the smallest irreducible element -- the headerimg in
this case.

You can see how this works by taking out the wrapper width and then
seeing where the scroll starts. If your eyes and sense of proportion
are better than mine, you can see this even with the wrapper
width left in place.

I was working with A List Apart's Negative Margins  and I ran in to an annoying problem.

When I put a Table (it's tabular data I swear) in to the center column
(the one that flexes) I can't make it fill the entire width of the
column with out breaking out of the column and forcing the float on the
right to wrap below all the center content.

If I make the width of the Table: Auto it fills the width in Firefox but does not expand o fill the width in IE 6.

If I make the width of the Table: 100% it fills the width in Firefox
but breaks the column in IE 6 and forces the float to wrap below.

How can I make the Table fill the full width of the column in FireFox and IE 6? Any help would be amazing.

.links li.top {border-top: 1px solid #00;}
.links li a {color: #00;text-decoration: none;display: block;text-align: center;cursor: default;padding-bottom: 4px;padding-top: 4px;}

.links li a#active:first-letter {border-bottom: 1px solid white;padding-bottom: 2px;}
.links li a:hover:first-letter {border-bottom: 1px solid white;padding-bottom: 2px;}
.links a#active {color: #FF;background-color: #00;text-decoration: none;}
.links a:active#active {color: #FF;background-color: #00;text-decoration: none;}and the html is:

What I'm trying to do is have the accesskey underlined, it works fine in Firefox and Opera(wayhey), but in IE 6 the a:first-letter works fine, but a:hover doesn't at all (it does without a:first-letter though) and in Netscape 7 the a:first-letter doesn't work at all (just netscapes css support?) but a:hover does. Phew.

The CSS is probably a bit bulky, but go easy on me, I'm newish to this.

Any ideas? If at all possible I'd like to avoid CSS hacks.

Subject: drop shadows

Hi all,

I have a site www.flashforprogrammers.com, each page ‘floats’ on a background 
with a dropshadow. I’m no HTML fiend, a friend told me how to add the drop 
shadow. It’s done thus:


div 
style=width:700px;height:1250px;filter:shadow(color:black,direction:135);
div style=width:682px;background:white;border:1px solid black;padding:20px;
…content
/div
/div
[/QUOTE]


My notes on that would be:

1) As mentioned already, this will work *only* in IE browsers.
2) ...So I would suggest a very popular technique, widely used, using a small 
GIF image and a bit of CSS. It works in nearly every browser nowadays, and is 
easy to implement. Details you may find here:

a) http://www.1976design.com/blog/archive/2003/11/14/49/
b) http://www.alistapart.com/articles/cssdropshadows/

Is there any guide or cheat sheet out there somewhere which 
gives the exact properties of each html element which CAN be 
altered/positioned/styled via CSS?

Like I've been putting:

margin: 0;
padding: 0;

on a default table rule set, but something I've just read 
"indicates" that tables don't have padding - so the padding rule for tables is 
useless. I've been doing the same for trs, but something else I came 
acrosssaid that tr's don't have margin or padding properties.

I'm trying to streamline my stylesheets and would like to get 
rid of any superflous rules that don't apply- or have no effect on 
-specific elements.

The easiest way I can think of to do this would be to 
reference some kind of (easy to understand) document that says - or shows - that 
you can set the margin of a table, but not the padding, etc.

2005-01-08 Thread Erwin Heiser
 I definitely like the new look of your page. No question.
 
 I am not a big fan of those dropdowns, though. Why do I have to click on the
 primary item to get the dropdown? It forces the user to make an additional
 click that is not really necessary. The good old mouseOver would do the job
 much better, I think. In particular as there is no choice: if I want to
 navigate your site I need the navigation items that are currently hidden.
 
 One other thing I noticed lately: most standards-based websites suddenly
 start to look the same. They've got this A-List-Apart look on them:
 centered, 800px wide, horizontal navigation at the top. Not that there is
 anything wrong with it, but the second you see that design style you know it
 was done by a fan of web standards. I wonder where this comes from?
 
 Sorry, this sounds like I am only complaining about your site. These were
 just two things that came to my mind. But in general I really like the new

Andreas,

Thanks for your comments, they are exactly the kind of thoughtful remarks
one needs to hear. 
I'm not a big fan of dropdowns either and for the longest time I had a
sidebar with the links but it just didn't feel right for this site.
The menu as it is behaves rather erratically with mouseover so I left it
as is: clickable.
As far as The List Apart look, well I plead guilty as charged ;-)
I wasn't looking to emulate that particular site but it's a layout that's
fairly easy to achieve with CSS, caters to a lot of monitor sizes and
different browsers and it just works. This is after all only my fourth
website and I'm still very much feeling my way. But your point's well taken,
it might be time to stretch out a little bit next time...
Thanks again for your time,

Erwin Heiser

I also prefer the idea of a forum instead of such a high volume list. I 
don't have time to check this list daily, and because of this often find 
that I've received 170+ emails from this list  in a matter of a couple of 
days. Quite often the majority of that is people asking for help, which is 
fine, in fact it's great that ppl want to extend their knowledge, but it 
creates a massive amount of posts and replies that the majority *probably* 
aren't interested in. Moving the list to a forum would allow members who are 
only interested in the more theoretical discussions and discussions about 
furthering the cause of web standards to view only that part of the forum 
and not have to wade through pages of Does this work? posts.
Personally, I joined this list in the hope of reading and participating in 
more theoretical discussion. It's not that I don't want to help people, i 
do, but I already do enough of that at codingforums.com...
Peter, Russ, please don't take this as another whinge, it is merely a little

While I can perfectly understand this, there are also those unlucky souls
such as me who were forced (so to speak) to subscribe to WSG because
Westciv's CSS-Foundations list is closing down. Westciv was strongly
encouraging us to move over to WSG. Personally, I have no particular

While I dislike all this meta discussion - in my opinion, if you don't like
the format of the list, there are plenty of other resources available in
alternative formats, so you'd be better investigating the other options than
clogging the list with off-topic meta discussion - I have to chime in here.
css-discuss is a great list, but it is insanely high volume and if you think
this list is strict, wait til you see the responses to off-topic posts there. 

Thanks Russ and Peter, this is a great resource, and I'm going to shut up now.

Hi Guys,

I've noticed that this list has grown and grown and 
has gotten too big to be read on a daily basis. I was wondering if there's any 
consideration of maybe splitting the listing into ahandful of different 
topics and then allowing members to subscribe to one or more specific topics. So 
if my interest right now is CSS I could subscribe to that topic.

Related, I've heard that the CSS-foundations list 
will be joining this one. These daily emails can only get bigger.

Just some thoughts,

I agree. I actually tried to unsubscribe from the list so I could just view
the list archive at my leisure. But if you unsubscribe the page reads:
 _
|_|  Yes. Remove me from the mailing list and delete my membership.

I did not want my membership revoked, I just can't weed through 100+ emails
every day. Also, you can't see the list archive unless you are on the list.

Maybe have 3 or 4 lists with a focus such as XHTML, CSS, general, etc... Or
a way to be a member without being on the list would be great as well.

my five cents worth
I would prefer to see a more typical thread based web forum where I 
just sign in and can read at my leisure. Any posts made by me should 
list my login name and I think that only member's should be able to 
post. I also find the number of emails I am getting harder to digest 
and would prefer a thread based approach so that I can see all replies 
on a given topic in one hit.
Get a better email client -- threading of emails based on the subject 
and other headers has been possible in email programs as far back as my 
very first email in about '96 or '97 I guess.

Seriously, threading in email is pretty standard stuff.
1. Set up a new folder / mail box for all the WSG email.
2. Set-up a filter/rule to make sure all email with the subject [WSG] 
get pushed into your new folder
3. When viewing the WSG folder, make sure you're viewing the emails in 
a threaded view.

If your email program doesn't support threading, get one that does! 
Judging by your headers, you're using Thunderbird, so all should okay 
there.

Want to be even more productive?
4. Flag the threads you're interested in so it's easy for you to scan 
for topics of interest.
5. Set up your mail client to only show threads with new messages, so 
that the WSG folder is a lot less cluttered.

Now you have a system which is FAR more productive than a clunky forum 
could ever be.  You can download all messages for viewing offline (on 
the train in the morning?), you can do a full text search via your mail 
client (again, offline), you can have instant and reliable private 
messages, and you can keep track of all your post all via a very fast 
email client, rather than a slow web based forum.

If you want a forum, then why did you join a mailing list?  There are 
plenty of such forums already in existence on the web -- we certainly 
don't need another one here.

Email is fast, clean, free from bloat, and allows me to quickly keep on 
eye on the mailing list whilst working -- a lot harder to do with a 
web-based forum.

the few
places that I would be able to talk to web designers and get
their opinions
on this.

I've been attending school to get an Associates degree in Digital
Media. The
program is 18 months and ranges from html to 3d graphics. I'm
already more
than halfway through my courses, but I find that I hit a road
block; I'm not
really learning anything. We are just now getting into *basic*
css, and
javascript in dreamweaver (which I already know how to do, even
though I
prefer to hand-code). The program is now focusing on 3D animation
but that's
really not what I'm into at all. I just want to do web design:
xhtml, css,
ECMAScript/DOM, etc. -- no more, no less. I don't feel I should
spend the
money for something I'm not getting anything out of.

My question to you is this: Do you think it would be wise for me
to finish
the program and get the degree even though I'm not learning what
I want to
be learning, or should I just call it off and focus on web
design?

TIA in advanced for your feedback!

Gabriel
