Re: [css-d] Problem with links as block-level elements
Hi Eric, Thanks for the advice, although I'm not sure I completely understand. I want to get the links sitting side-by-side across the top as is, but the only way I know to do that is to nest divs and float:right hence: div id=1 div id=2 a href=foo.htmlfoo/a a href=fooyootoo.htmlfooyootoo/a!--this is floated right-- /div a href=fooyoothree.htmlfooyoothree/a!--this is floated right-- /div If there's a better way to approach this type of layout, I'd really appreciate hearing about it it seems to me one of the weakest areas of css implementation, but that's probably just out of my own ignorance! Meanwhile, seeing as you had difficulty with getting all the build files for the site, i've zipped them up and placed them here (http://www.easycare.ie/build.zip 68k) if you're willing to test out that theory of yours!

Hi all, I have just joined the list and thought it only polite for me to say hello instead of skulking in the background. My name is Paul and I am a web design based in the south of England. I am one of three founding members of a web design company called Headscape which made the switch to wholly css based design about a year and a half ago (although we still have a table based web site ourselves!). Its been a painful process at times and I have gotten a lot wrong and still am. Just when I think I have got my head around things I suddenly discover the world have moved on and there are now better ways to solve the never-ending list of bugs and problems. I have just got back from the @media 2005 conference (http://www.boagworld.com/archives/2005/06/media2005.html) on web standards and accessibility. It was absolutely brilliant and gave me a new conviction about web standards and css based design.

[css-d] center align a UL menu
Hi all, first post here so if i dont get the netiquette spot on, I apologise. I have a div that contains a UL.

Hi Anthony, I am not convinced that this forum is the right place for me to do into the details of marketing a web design company. However my blog does have a lot of articles on marketing related stuff so you might want to check that out: http://www.boagworld.com/archives/emarketing/index.html What might be of more relevancy to this group is the problem of selling web standards compliant design to clients. I have confess we are in a fortunate position where a lot of our clients are public bodies (Universities, government organisations) and so many of them are well aware of the benefits and sometimes even request a standards build. Nevertheless there are still many occasions where I have to do the hard sell. In such cases I use the points covered in this article as the basis of my approach: http://www.boagworld.com/archives/emarketing/index.html The bigger sellers however are the print capabilities of css and the style changing (show them Zen gardens and they are sold).

[css-d] Streching Divs around Floated Divs
I recently posted a problem where I had a div that wasn't stretching around the two floated divs that were within a parent div. I was helped to understand that the parent div will have no actual height since floats are designed to exist outside of their parent divs. This wouldn't make sense at first glance, but when you think about it, it is exactly what most of us would expect a float to do - Read More here: http://complexspiral.com/publications/containing-floats/. I was pointed to a solution to give the parent div a overflow attribute with the values of auto, hidden, or scroll. I tried this solution and it worked, but I do not understand why. The article I was pointed to was http://www.quirksmode.org/css/clearing.html, and it seems as though the author was unsure as to why it worked. Does anyone know exactly what is going on here?

Looking for comments/suggestions/rants/raves... Unfortunately, I'm going to have to call this thread to a close for being off-topic. Yes, it's true that choosing a standards-friendly CMS has bearing on CSS authoring... but so does writing standards-friendly PHP code, JavaScript, .Net code, etc. etc. If we walk down that road, traffic could quite easily double. We can't cover everything standards-related here; there simply isn't room. A great place to ask your question would be Webdesign-L. There's also evolt's thelist, and I'm sure there must be other venues where CMS discussions are on topic. For a short list of forums, see http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=OffTopic. On the topic of CMS software, see the page others in the thread have brought up: http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=CssFriendlyCms. Thanks, and sorry to have to end the thread. -- Eric A.

Re: [css-d] Trouble centering a spaned item
Matthew Velic wrote: I have a span within a div as such: div p / p / pspan/span/p p / p / /div I just want it to center the small amount of text (2 links, a previous/next sort of deal for an online portfolio). I've tried using a few different ways to center it, such as declaring a class/id and putting text-align: center, I've tried div span #nav { text-align: center; }, that same without the id/class... and I just cannot figure it out. Test-align:center does not work on spans or other inline elements. You have to use it on a block container like that p, then the p will center all inline content inside. Big John Unfortunately, I cannot upload the files at work, as I do not have a network connection for my laptop. Some random BS with the network here... But a copy of css file can be found at http://home.gwu.edu/~mvelic/dccub2 It hasn't been changed pretty much at all from that version I uploaded last night. It is called styles.css, if you need that.

Re: [css-d] Streching Divs around Floated Divs
Tim Zappe wrote: I recently posted a problem where I had a div that wasn't stretching around the two floated divs that were within a parent div.-snip- I was pointed to a solution to give the parent div a overflow attribute with the values of auto, hidden, or scroll. I tried this solution and it worked, but I do not understand why.-snip- Does anyone know exactly what is going on here? Here are the relevant citations: http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/CR-CSS21-20040225/visudet.html#root-height if the element has any floating descendants whose bottom margin edge is below the bottom, then the height is increased to include those edges. Combine this with the rules for overflow:auto: http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/CR-CSS21-20040225/visufx.html#x0 The behavior of the 'auto' value is user agent-dependent, but should cause a scrolling mechanism to be provided for overflowing boxes. As I see it, a float that is inside a container can overflow that container, so overflow:auto would cause such a float to create a scrollbar, unless there is no assigned height on the container. If the container has height:auto then it is free to get taller when non-floated content is tall. So the overflow:auto rule can either create a scroll for the tall float or add height to the container. Apparently the consensus is to enlarge the container rather than do the scrollbar thing.

[css-d] Unclickable links in Safari
Hello, Page in question: http://proto.kudos.goldenware.com/a/American_Airlines.html style sheet: http://proto.kudos.goldenware.com/i/t.css These pages don't actually exist, they are put together on the fly with a list of applicable keywords. But that really doesn't matter. If u look at the right side of the page there is an UL. Well in safari u cannot click on the links. The template is the negative margin layout from www.alistapart.com. This problem baffles me. The links for the news article heading and what not work fine. Its just those links in the side bar that are not clickable in safari. Any suggestions would be awesome. ~shawn a __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

[css-d] Text weirdness @ 640x480
We've recently discovered a bit of weirdness with archive entries at a blog we did some work on. At a screen resolution of 640x480, the entry authorship attribution is lined out. See http://maxspeak.org/mt/archives/001426.html @ 640x480 if you would and can anyone explain why this is happening? I grabbed the corner of the 640x480 window http://anybrowser.com/ScreenSizeTest.html gave me with my mouse and dragged the window larger, the line- through went away. Absolutely weird. We'd like to know why this is happening, whether it is correctable or not. We understand that 640x480 viewers comprise 1% of all Web surfers, per the last report we've seen.

I wrote that post, then stepped out to the garage to try finishing another sort of project, while I was out there my partner fixed it. A div had a top border defined and at such a narrow resolution, it was being pushed down, it happened to cover that bit of text. Sorry for the false alarm.
