It looks like you have mixed up some inline style data with your ID values.
An ID attribute assigns a name to an element, must start with a letter,
which can be followed by letters, digits, hyphens, underscores, colons,
and/or periods. No spaces are allowed.

Mind you, I don't know what CSS makes of IDs that have periods
and colons in them... ?

Cordially,
David

OK, you haven't quite picked up how CSS works.
I haven't seen your actual markup (the contents of the 'view source'  
of your page) but it looks like you have something like this:


div id=Borg; width: 400px; margin: 1% auto;
...
/div

where you want to have:
div id=Borg
...
/div

and in your .css file (or inside your style type=text/css ... / 
style element) put:

#Borg {
  width: 400px;
  margin: 1% auto;
}

if you want to have a 'Borg' type block appear more than once, you  
should use a 'class' rather than an 'id' - an 'id' should only appear  
once on the page while a 'class' is for repeating blocks.

This would give markup like this:
div class=Borg
...
/div

and the class would be referenced in the CSS with 'dot' notation:
.Borg {
  width: 400px;
  margin: 1% auto;
}

Hope it helps

RE: [WSG] CSS help

2007-11-01 Thread Likely, James A.
Rob,

What I do is start off with a default style sheet. (see attached). In
this starting CSS I break it down into different sections. This helps me
out as like you, if I don't plan ahead, it gets pretty messy and
disorganized very quick. 

If the project is big then I would use a couple of style sheets. One for
the layout/framework of the site and then one for rest of the styles.
(framework.css and common.css). That way if you have a problem with the
layout of the site you can turn off the other style sheet to see what
the problem is. This would be difficult if you had all of your style in
one file.

Is there a correct way to do this, I don't think so. Depending on who
you ask, every one has a different way or organizing their style sheets.

Here are some articles that might help you out.

http://www.andybudd.com/archives/2003/08/how_i_organize_my_stylesheets/
http://www.digital-web.com/articles/architecting_css/
http://www.mezzoblue.com/css/cribsheet/

I hope this helps.

James

Dear Group,

I'm a relative newby to web design so please excuse me if this
question is simple.

The problem:

I don't have (or know how to have) a structured system of building my
style sheets. I find I keep just adding to the file until problems in
my output display start to develop. They very often become messy and
conflict-ridden. My style sheets end up being very long and don't
cascade well.

The question/advise/thoughts:

Is there a way, a logical procedure or rule which I should adopt to
prevent me from going forwards and backwards and constantly patching
it up?

Any help from an already helpful discussion forum most appreciated.

Thanks, Rob

Olajide,

because you are resetting a border of 1px to 0 the image will probably
move so you may need to do this:

#sidebar .one-image a:hover   {
   border: 1px solid #000  !important;
}

Contrary to everything else put forth about the 'issue', this actually
works...

change
#sidebar a:hover,.blogfoot a:hover{

}

to

#sidebar li a:hover,.blogfoot a:hover{

add the li so it only applies to links inside the list. simple pie. The
other attempts here try to fix a problem with an extra rule, when if done
correctly you don't need it.

 Try this...

 a img { margin-bottom: -2px; vertical-align: sub; border: none;}

 Worked for me in a similar situation.

that statement isn't correct because this also works:

}

I don't think there is a correct way,  there are just different ways, as
all solutions have their implications - e.g. your solution assumes only
links in lists require this style which is not necessarily the case - so
if other links are added outside of a list an extra rule may be required
for them

the solution I have given above may add an extra rule but it solves the
problem without tampering with the existing css - so it's not
necessarily clear which solution is better

Chris Knowles solution works... both of them... I used the first one
though cause i didnt want the border at all. Under firefox, the border
cuts into the h3 title... so i dont mind the shifting

Thanks a lot guys

Re: [WSG] CSS help with bullet removal in IE view

list-style:none; on the UL should work well... failing that, try
playing with padding: on the list.

Thank you, Josh. I did try the list-style: none; (sorry, I failed to 
mention that before). I even got desperate and tried list-style-type: none;
and that didn't seem to help either lol. But, I did as you suggested and 
played with the padding. It didn't remove the bullets, but it scooted 
the text over far enough to hide them without messing up the look hehe. 
I'm happy now :)


Thanks ever so much for your help and suggestion!
Artemis
