[css-d] RE:Hover/click and expand help needed
Have you tried to set #programs_menu to position:absolute? I think the problem occure because your menu relate to top/left border of window. This is handled different in IE and Firefox. Lars Fyrileiv Thanks to all for trying to help! I got further requirements and I have a draft version based on some code Dreamweaver spat: http://websage.net/new/programs_menu.htm The CSS and JS code are respectively: http://websage.net/new/mm_css_menu.js http://websage.net/newprograms_menu.css The issues I have are: - There is a gap between the flyout menu and the table; that gap is not the same in Firefox and IE - I need to have vertical bars between the table cells; I currently have border on the whole table. When trying to put cell borders, they became double with the table border. Thanks for your help!

RE: [css-d] Opacity in Suckerfish -- stacking layers
I posted this question in the stacking layers mail, but until now I haven't received a satisfying reply to that. Arno Have you (or anyone else) figured out why the menu disappears when your menu overlays a new element on the page? To see what I mean, go to his example. Hover over about, then move to each item on the menu. When you get to them (just below her), the menu disappears, presumably because the background paragraph under the menu is now being hovered over.

[css-d] Getting DIVs to adjust dynamically
Hi all, I've created 2 DIV tags that become visible or invisible based on what the user selected in a dropdown. If the us selects United States from the dropdown, then a DIV is displayed that contains form fields for a zip code search. Otherwise, the second DIV is enabled which simply displays a submit button. The problems that I'm having are: 1) I'm using absolute positioning to position the DIVs under the dropdown and center accordingly. This is an issue when the user resizes their browser. How can I make it so that the DIVs adjust dynamically? 2) The second issue is really more of a UI thing. When the user submits, the results are displayed fairly far down because of the space the DIVs take up. Is there a way to dynamically adjust the results up or down based on whether a DIV becomes visible? Here's the link: http://dev.tropicaltraditions.com/outlets.cfm Just click on I agree and it will take you to the page. Thanks for the help guys.

On Oct 20, 2005, at 10:12 AM, Lisa Hoppes wrote: Should I bag the dl altogether and use a different method? Yes, please. Tag the form elements properly and use CSS to style them the way you need them is better than trying to fool the browser into doing it by claiming they're something else. Your message suggested you wanted the label, help text and input box on different lines, with the input box indented a little. Styling all three with display:block; will put them on separate lines, then apply margin and padding to separate them the correct distance, adding a little extra on the left side of the input box to slide it in the way the definition list would is about all you'd need to achieve the simplistic version of that. If your entire form was to be structured that way, you could give the form an ID and put: form#formID label { display: block;} form#formID p { display: block;} /*yes this is redundant, omit display placeholder and include the padding you want*/ form#formID input { display: block; padding-left: 10px;} (add whatever extra margins and padding you want) or something similar in the CSS file and you're done. http://www.wpdfd.com/editorial/basics/cssbasics13.html is a good starting point for designing forms.

Re: [css-d] Pre-wrap and hanging indent?
Rodent of Unusual Size wrote: I want to display an IRC conversation log fragment in an HTML pre element. I want the effect of white-space: pre-wrap, so that text on each line that's too wide will wrap. However, when that happens I want the wrapped text to be indented, so that it'll be clear that it's a continuation. I could probably get the effect I want by putting each line into an appropriately-styled p element or the like, but that's awkward. Is there any way to set a hanging indent on 'pre-wrap' text like this? Sort of treating each line from start to hard newline as an implicit block element? ROUS, You can create a hanging indent effect by using a negative text-indent value. That pulls the first line off to the left, creating the appearance that all subsequent lines are indented. However, this is dependent on each piece of text to be wrapped in some sort of container that you apply the text-indent to -- there's no such thing as an implicit block element as you mention. Either you've told the browser how to group the content, or you haven't. If you just have all the pieces of text plopped in a pre element, you wouldn't have anything to apply the text-indent property to. I suppose you could wrap each piece of text in its own pre element, rather than just have one pre element for the entire conversation? Zoe -- Zoe M.

The parent of this container is relatively positioned too. div id=leftcontent2.../div div id=rightcontent2 div class=leftcontent .../div /div #leftcontent2 { float:left; width:246px; ...} #rightcontent2 { margin-left: 246px; position: relative; ...} #rightcontent2 div.leftcontent { float: left; position: relative; ...} You may try to add #rightcontent2 {zoom:1;} to test if haslayout will stabilize the container [1]. (later, I would test if both the p.r. are still needed?) By adding layout to the #rightcontent2, it will show a 3px text jog bug [2]. The fix is to reduce the margin-left of #rightcontent2 { margin-left: 243px; } by 3px and to make room on the right side of the float: #leftcontent2 {margin-right:-3px;) Once all is running well for IE, you should move these hacks in a separate iefix.css via conditional comments [3], as they say that the - three px jog bug - peekaboo bug - position:relative bug you are experiencing would be fixed in IE7.

Better try for yourself, maybe I'm overlooking the obvious. The bug is reported [1] a while ago. A version of our haslayout-article was white font on dark gray background, resulting in a cool, but somewhat inaccessible print effect (black font on dark gray) -- by default in OP8 PC/Mac. We played with the order of the style sheets and with !important with no avail. So we came up with this fix, alternatively, one could set an explicit white background for a pagewrapper in the print style sheet.
