Hi folks, I would appreciate some help. I particularly invoke the contribution of those that already devoted their attention to my case:
if you open the following page: http://www.giuseppecraparottacv.co.uk/work-web.html you see the layout as it should be, everything is at the right place. But the tooltip triggered by hovering on the first "let me tell you something..." (.popup) is positioned through top and left margin. This implies wrong placement of the tooltip in IE6 & 7. Why don't I absolutely position the tooltip relative to .popup ? Because it gets cut off due to the "overflow:hidden" declared for the ul. Getting rid of ul {overflow:hidden;} and li {float:left; width:100%} would make the ul code cleaner and I would love that, but it implies that the tooltip looks really buggy, especially in Opera 9.10 , as you can see at: http://www.giuseppecraparottacv.co.uk/work-web2.html Besides, in this last version the absolutely positioned ".works", relative to <li> looks out of place in IE5. I'm thinking of resorting to an html hack to solve that. The "float:right" positioning method (commented) seems disastrous, given the removal of the properties mentioned above. MY QUESTIONS ARE : 1) Is there a way to get rid of overflow:hidden, float and width from ul and li and having a correct displaying of the tooltip? 2) Given the removal of these properties, is there a way to position absolutely the .works link consistently in FF, IE and Opera 9.10 without recurring to a IE hack? If the answer to these questions is "NO" or similar, 3) Would you approve the choice of positioning the tooltip as in case A) and recurring to IE-specific code to position it correctly in IE? Thank you, hope this won't bother you, cheers, G ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
