The use of min-width, max-width, width, and fluid images, will yield any 
desktop, laptop or tablet [landscape or portrait] window without any 
media query.
One 480 media query will handle most any mobile-handset in portrait and 
landscape view.
You'll need an appropriate device meta tag such as metaname=viewport 
content=width=device-width.
Btw, I have Opera Mini, and Opera Mobile, running without issue on a 
low-end Android/2.2.2.

[css-d] San-Check request on new responsive site(s)

2011-10-24 Thread Davies, Elizabeth
Would appreciate a quick check/feedback on my first forays into responsive web 
development.

http://korea.gallup.com  (very basic small site, being used to test out 
concepts)
http://strengths.gallup.com  (slightly larger, but still small site ... more 
complexity of forms and navigation)

We test against IE7+, Firefox 3.5+, Safari (mac), Chrome on desktop. Only got 
very rough insight into device testing since my dev environment has no true 
mobile devices with access, only emulators. These are my testbed sites in 
preparation for a large scale site redesign of our primary external consumer 
website in January.

I've already found a few 'things that are not so hot' but would very much value 
any and all feedback.

Page throws an horizontal scroll bar regardless of screen resolution.
She looks O.K [other than above] for landscape [1024] and portrait [768] 
view tablets. Folding to one column nicely at 640 and holding same at 
600 and 480 mobile.

No h-scroll bar Android/2.2.2 portrait/landscape [a low-end smart phone].
Text a bit tiny and insufficient line-height.
Image placeholders adjacent to Chinese text.
Opera Mobile and Opera Mini running on same handset yield pretty much 
same result as Androiud /2.2.2


I don't have IE 7/8/9 right now but these captures look as though you 
are getting left column float-drop?

http://home.browsercam.com/public.aspx?proj_id=567849

aside
The tiny type and insufficient contrast verges on being unreadable on 
landing on a MacBookPro at 116.5dpi/1680 and will be worse in high-end 
laptops at120 and 130dpi [try setting it at 100%[user default] or 102% 
and drop to no less than 100%[user default] at 480 mobile.

/aside

I did not have time to look at the more complex version.

Re: [css-d] San-Check request on new responsive site(s)

2011-10-24 Thread Davies, Elizabeth
Many thanks David. Great feedback.

I get the horizontal expansion or scroll bar on the iPad in horizontal 
orientation where it zooms in on the rotation. It 'finds itself' if you snap 
it. Will have to explore why it does that, possibly layer in a viewport media 
query just for Mac devices. The Android pads don't seem to have that issue, 
although the top nav dropdown blows chunks on Android phones.

The image placeholders were caused by a major outage from Onstream hosting 
services that slammed all of our websites at the exact time you were testing. 
There be some rabid scrambling going on across the 'net over that one. Fluid 
images lose their wow factor when there is no image.

Text size and line height ... thanks for the verification. I can now go whinge 
louder at the designers. They just tell me I'm half blind (which is also true). 
Hadn't considered the higher dpi displays. Again, great feedback.

(And Gallup can afford phones and devices. Sadly there's this thing called NIST 
and our environment is locked down tight. Last year I had devices. Today I have 
emulators and educated guesses as they investigate ways to let us test locally 
on mobile again.)

[css-d] Container shifts, one page to another

2011-10-24 Thread John
http://coffeeonmars.com/testing/index.html
http://coffeeonmars.com/testing/WPR_Wire.html


When I load the two links above and go from one tab to the other, I see the 
content area shift to the left (going from the index page to the wpr_wire page)

the only browswer that doesn't do this is Win IE 6, but Win FF 7 does, Win 
Opera 11.51 does , as do Mac Safari 5, FF 6 and Opera 11.50

can anyone see why this shift happens? my hunch is that it has to do with the 
image on the second page, though I'm pretty sure its well within the bounds of 
the area it's sitting in.

thank you in advance,

John

Could it be just that the 2nd page draws a scroll bar, which causes everything 
to shift to the left ?

FINALLY! A dumb problem I didn't cause!

this was sorta cool while reading the article you linked, David, I was able to 
prove the short page phenomenon by simply making the browser window taller on 
the offending page then tabbing back and forth between the two...page shift 
gone...

OK..for my page, inserting margin-bottom: 1px resulted in about a 10-pixel gap 
between the top of my container and the top of the browser window, so I 
ammended the code to:

margin: 0 0 1px 0;  which appeared to fix that problem. 

Was this the right way to deal with that gap cause by using just margin-bottom: 
1px; ?

With the new code bit in place, it doesn't seem to be forcing a scrollbar in 
the page that doesn't need it (so that page shift doesn't happen). I can easily 
open the browser so that the first page has no scrollbar, the second does.

thanks!

 Page throws an horizontal scroll bar regardless of screen resolution.

That scrollbar is caused by the box-shadow on the header. Will be visible on 
Safari 5 (but not 5.1) and older, Gecko 1.9.2 and older, iOS 4.3 (but not iOS
