RE: CSS Positioning

2006-02-15 Thread Kevin Graeme
I know you asked for web sites, but the books "Eric Meyer on CSS" and "More
Eric Meyer on CSS" are really good project tutorials that step you through
various actual implementations of using CSS.

Most sites I see cover the concepts but don't take you through the learning
process of implementing them.

Re: CSS Positioning

2006-02-14 Thread Kay Smoljak
The csss-discuss wiki is an awesome resource:
http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=FrontPage

I would recommend playing with some of the example layouts that are
listed on there, especially to start with - no point reinventing the
wheel, right?

HTH,
K.

I want to play around with using CSS instead of using tables to position
things. Does anyone have some sites that they use as an example of this that
I can go off of.

Thanks Sandy, I did get it it though :)
 At the time it was working but there was a bg image on the 3rd column that 
would display under the div but it's all good now :)

Couple of things.

Liquid layouts are commonly used with em or percentages rather than with
pixels. (Think of an em as 100% of the font-size).

Positioning and floating are mutually exclusive. Floating takes something
out of the document flow. Position:relative positions something relative to
its original position. Using top:0 with position:relative does nothing. 

I can't get to the test page so I can't really help much.

A great layout for 3 col with headers and footers is Skiddo Lean (Ruthsarian
Layouts). Why reinvent the wheel?

trying to do the "dreaded" 3 column layout
http://icandfashion.com/icand2/controls/2.cfm
 as you can see the picture that should be on the right side is dropped
below the wrapper, I know there is a trick to this but can't recall.
 If i fix the whole "wrapper" to 1 size i can get it to work but I would
like the liquid layout.

 #rightWrap {
     background-image: url(12s.jpg);
     background-repeat: no-repeat;
     background-position: left top;
     height: 780px;
     width: 200px;
     position: relative;
     float: right;
     top: 0px;
     clear: left;
 }

RE: css positioning HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP

2005-05-14 Thread Dawson, Michael
I agree with losing the dotted lines.  When you scroll, they dotted
lines end up being solid in some places and sparsely dotted.  This is a
video issue, but it's kind of annoying.
