[css-d] a problem with the impression of the tag pre

2005-06-23 Thread Matthieu Petiot
hello!
I'm French, then excuse me for my bad English accent :-).
i use a tag pre to post code on my website.
here styles used for this tag:

#content pre {
background-color:#E2EDF8;
border:1px solid #7DACE7;
border-left-width:8px;
margin:10px;
margin-left:20px;
margin-right:20px;
padding:10px;
padding-left:44px;
background-image:url('/gabarit/defaut/konsole.png');
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:10px 10px;
overflow:auto;
}

but when I print the page, part of the contents of the tag pre is truncated 
because lines are very long.
I tried well to use the property white-space:normal but the result is ugly. 
there is no more line feed.
does somebody have a solution?
you can look at the result on this page for example:

Zero the default margins and paddings.

Declare some padding on the a.

For your print stylesheet
pre {

white-space: pre-wrap; /* iCab 3.0 beta,  nobody else ?? */
white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; /* Gecko */
	white-space: -khtml-pre-wrap; /* Safari, not working --  maybe on

white-space: -o-pre-wrap; /* Opera */

This works fine in Opera and Gecko (with the vendor prefix).
Safari doesn't listen, unfortunately. I'm not sure about IE win.

[css-d] IE6 floating help

2005-06-23 Thread Keith Bloom
Hi there,

I'm developing a site and I've decided to go for broke and attempt to
make everything css and well formed.

The link: http://195.184.252.10/reddot_static_demo/Locations_UKbrighton_css.html

There are two problems at the moment and they both relate to floats. 
Next to the image of deck chairs there is a series of links.  In the
CSS this is in a separate div and floated right.  I view the page in
Firefox and the element is there, I view it in IE 6 and it isn't.  I
gave the holly hack a go but this didn't seem to do anything.  If I
tweak the size of the infoNav element it will display but then the
sizes are wrong.

The second problem is very similar.  The image in the content element
(e.g. The Centre) is a separate div floated to the right.  In IE it
displays above the content but is fine in Firefox.  Again I can tweak
the sizes and it displays OK.

Any help with this would be great and comments on how it has been
constructed are also appreciated.

Many thanks, Keith.

[css-d] table border-like decoration on images?

2005-06-23 Thread john
Hello, everybody.  This is my first post on this list, although I've
been a member of the web standards list for several months.

I'll get to an introduction another time (if that's appropriate here),
but I have what I hope will be an easy question for the enlightened.

I have a client who wants a border around the images in the gallery
I'm creating.  He specifically stated that he wants a table border
around each thumbnail.  Well...I know better than to create a table
around each image just for the visual effect, and I'm not about to
photoshop each image, so I'm wondering if there's a way to emulate it
in CSS.

Thank you kindly for your help.

Hi John,

if all your client wants is a border, this can be achieved simply by doing this:

img.thumbnail /* change this as is necessary */
{
border: 1px solid black;

/* you might want to add a little padding and a background color */
padding: 1px;
background-color: white;
}

Would setting the border attribute to '1' on the image suffice?[a]. Can be done 
in the CSS if require[b]. Or on gallery-only images by declaring a class on the 
relevant image[c].

CSS and well formed...

- Change most of those IDs to classes, as IDs should only be used to
address one, single, element in a page, while classes can be reused as
often as you like.

- Try to avoid font-sizes/line-heights in pixels. Use relative units -
percentages, ems - and test across browser-land.

it displays above the content but is fine in Firefox.  Again I can

2: Fix IE/win by using a negative back-side margin on the image-floats:
#liimage {margin-left: -3px; /* or larger negative value */}
...which should really be written as class:
.liimage {margin-left: -3px; /* or larger negative value */}

Re: [css-d] IE6 floating help

2005-06-23 Thread Keith Bloom
Thanks Gunlaug, good comment about the ids. I'll be going over all the
elements and checking them. The text sizes is a difficult one as the
designers of the site have specified the pixel sizes. It's a long
story.

The infoNav fix worked but the number of links in the element is
variable.  Is there a simple way to get the element to hug the
baseline of the image?

I believe most browsers use { border-style: groove } as a default style 
for tables;

something like this then

img {border: 3px groove #666;}

All other border-styles are here:

Re: [css-d] Floated blocks inside list items

2005-06-23 Thread Philip Wills
Hi Mike,

The following appears to work at least for the small test case:

li {clear: both;  border: 1px solid white;}
.question { margin-right: 200px; }
.button { width: 15%; float:right; }

ol

 li
 div class=buttoninput type=button value=Answer //div
 div class=questionQuestion text/div
 /li
/ol

Without the border the question text drops down in IE and if you put
any  width, or float the question then the numbers disappear.

Hope that helps.

Hello,

I've managed to get my page to work on Safari, FF, and IE5.X (with the 
exception of the ':hover' pseudo class in IE - I know it doesn't 
support it.) - all for Mac. It also appears to work in FF for windows. 
However, the center content area is not flowing properly in IE Windows 
(at least from the screen shots some friends have sent me). It appears 
to bump down to below the left column content. Can an IE Windows CSS 
guru/guress tell me what's happening. I'm on a Mac.


CSS is in the document.

Re: [css-d] Odd bug in IE with DL, DT and DD backgrounds?

2005-06-23 Thread Terry Melanson
A good technique to always remember about IE and
display issues is that you can usually fix it with a
height: 1%; and/or a position: relative; ... 

dd, dt { padding: 0 10px; height: 1%; }

Why? I don't know. But it works, and usually fixes a
problem right away that would otherwise cause madness
if you didn't know to try it in the first place!

It won't be good with negative margin. I have tried it many times.

Only practical way I know is to position image from of the top of
paragraph, not from bottom. That is not as nice, as you should never know
how many lines you paragraph is long, but it won't break badly if you
guess wrong.

To do that, you need an extra element, which you float to left and give it
height you wish between image and top of the paragraph.

Example:

Without extra element:
http://www.student.oulu.fi/~laurirai/www/css/floatbetween/2.html

(and someone's idea of using span with background instead of image was of
course worse than useless approach.)

[css-d] Safari kills some bottom margins

2005-06-23 Thread Rob Mientjes
Ello all,

First attempt from me at getting some help here, but since it's an
issue with Safari (Safari issues are hardly documented), I think I'm
safe to ask about it.

http://flickrbits.com/ This showcases the problem on the longer pages.
The footer gets cut off, and the post pages kill the better bit of the
comment form.

Anyone any clue at all to why this is happening?

[css-d] Partial dissapearing borders in IE

2005-06-23 Thread Geoffrey Alan Colbath
I'm trying to convert a table/graphical layout to a CSS/HTML layout, and
I'm having a little difficulty with making IE render things properly. I
have a box that outlines a search form, and a little sidebar floated to
the right of it. It seems like the search form (which, unfortunately, is
still a table) isn't clearing the floated div sidebar, unless I try and
mess with the width of the sidebar, in which case the border of the
containing div dissapears--but only around the floated div.

Here's the relevant code from my CSS:

div#commBody div.divRedBoxNotes {
display: block;
margin-bottom: 25px;
padding-left: 5px;
}
div#commBody div.divRedBoxNotes table.textBody {
clear: none;
}
div#commBody div.divRedBoxNotes div.sideBarNoBorder {
border-left: 1px dashed #CC;
margin-top: 10px;
margin-bottom: 10px;
height: 127px;
padding-left: 10px;
}

probably used as content rather than presentation anyway, so the entire

Just went through this myself.

Either add media=screen to styles/advanced.css or you'll have to 
explicitly declare display: none in print.css for each element you 
want to hide on a print.

Thanks, Ingo!  

You asked why background:#fff so I took it out to remind myself why.
The magik creeping border seems to have disappeared with the one change
which doesn't make sense.  Anyway, thanks.

[css-d] Problem with Mac OSX and IE 5

2005-06-23 Thread Kim Kruse

Hi,

This page http://mouseriders.dk/ looks fine in almost every browser. But 
the page is all over the place on Mac OSX and IE5.X.


Is this correct? If so... what's the cure if there is one? I looked at 
it with safari 1.2 and everything looks fine.


(I don't have access to a Mac with OSX and IE5)

Thank you
Kim

[css-d] Div's Vs Classes

2005-06-23 Thread Michael Auty

Dear List:

At work, we are currently working out the spec for the next revision of 
our CMS (standards compliant of course).


During our scoping meetings, some members of the dev team have specified 
that we designers provide them with front-end CSS and XHTML markup that 
uses ONLY classes. The reason why is not important (for info, they would 
like to reserve the use of ID's for .NET programming purposes) so


My question is this:

aside from the obvious reasons (ID's are declared only once, classes 
more than once) I'm interested to hear the lists opinion on the 
potential pitfalls of developing markup with CSS that uses only classes 
for layout purposes.


cheers

Mike

[css-d] Left Column Blues

2005-06-23 Thread James Foster
page:
http://forethought.daiun-ji.org/privacy.html

problem:
the What About my Privacy h3/span - in IE it pushes the content half way down 
the page - and in firefox, while it puts it up top... adding my top margin 
space also pushes down the left column/welcome visitor text.

I've taken over in the middle of someone else's project and I -really- don't 
want to have to re-do everything from scratch (tight deadline) ... and I'm 
really hoping that someone can look at this quickly and fire back a you forgot 
a comma 'here' dolt or your problem is this and this fix is found on this 
site type thing.

I know you all get a lot of these requests - which is another reason why I'm 
hoping it's a quick, and easily spotted fix.

here is where I beg:

Unless your stats show a lot of users w/ this browser, the fix is to

in practice there is no real difference between id's and classes, as
browsers (well, FF  IE6) don't complain when multiple elements have the
same ID. Validators might, but that's beside the point.

[css-d] ALA Switcher error and wierd IE problem

2005-06-23 Thread chad henderson

Hello World,

I am working up a mockup for our client to check out a few designs, and 
I was using the ALA style switcher to facilitate switching between the 
styles. This works fine on firefox and safari, but acts wierd in IE/Win.


It usually loads the default style fine, but when you switch to the 
second style ( brown) it shows the page without any stylesheet info. If 
you click on the last stylesheet choice (blue) it switches as expected. 
I found that if I remove the javascript link the page will show the 
styles normally. Any ideas why this is happening?


Also in IE/Win if you resize the browser to less than around 700 px wide 
the css breaks and displays inproperly. I am not able to determine what 
is causing this either.


Thanks for any help you can provide.

The page is located at
   http://ilovethisbarandgrillokc.com/index1b.html

css files are
   http://ilovethisbarandgrillokc.com/css/brown.css
   http://ilovethisbarandgrillokc.com/css/blue.css
   http://ilovethisbarandgrillokc.com/css/black.css

javascript is found at
   http://ilovethisbarandgrillokc.com/includes/j.js

Re: [css-d] Safari kills some bottom margins

http://flickrbits.com/ This showcases the problem on the longer pages.
The footer gets cut off, and the post pages kill the better bit of the
comment form.

Anyone any clue at all to why this is happening?


You might first try to validate your page... :-/ p inside of p ??? 
- foei, foei Rob.


There is still a bug in Safari.
#body contains only floated blocks, and is positioned (relative), and 
is off-setted (top:135px;). This effectively kills the footer. Deleting 
the offset restores the footer in full glory.

Not sure what's up with your comment page, I guess the same problem.

It is a variation on an old bug
http://dev.l-c-n.com/safari/duplicate_float.php
The duplication effect is fixed - seemingly - but there remains on some 
problems.


PS - using margin-top instead of top fixes the problem, in case you 
want a fix.

That would help IE Mac as well.

[css-d] Div's not displaying in Firefox but ok in IE

2005-06-23 Thread Asiapreneur
Hello,
For some reason this page displays correctly in IE6 however, the main
content of the page doesn't display in Firefox (1.0.4). The header and
footer divs display correctly.

The page in question is:

www.ethanhathaway.com/index-fc2.php

I've validated the html and css files and they turn out ok. I've also
ran a search in the archives for this problem but couldnt' find
anything related.

Not sure what I've done wrong here. Any help would be great!

Thanks!
Wayne
