[css-d] Using Fieldset/legend on non-form elements?
Hi list, What are you thoughts on using fieldsetlegend/legend/fieldset tags on/with non-form content? Anyone have suggestions for the best alternative (one that works on Mac/IE would be nice)? I am going for this look: [LEGEND]- Content, content, content.. That would be a horizontal border that spans 100% with the legend on top/left-middle. I am still doing google/wiki searches...

It has something to do with the space reserved for the list-marker
that is still 'there', even if you set list-style to none and zero
out padding and margin. Overflow:hidden avoids the problem (cropped
away), if that fixes it for you.
Another solution is
li {list-style: none inside;}
Note the addition of 'inside' for list-style position.
As Ingo notes, the problem is fixed in Fx 1.5 and newer.

With this sort of layout, there is no underlying semantic meaning that the user agent can make sense of without CSS. Turn off CSS and see what I mean. Even in an intranet setting where you can assure that everyone has CSS turned on, this might not be a good solution because if it needs to be significantly restyled it will probably take considerably more work than restyling the table would. With a lot of employees with very different schedules, it could also get pretty messy -- a ton of ids to form the colored spans for each of their schedules.

Hi Philippe, Have you checked if your problem also happen on Fx 1.07 Win ? Not yet. The system isn't for general release for a few months, when it will be released to a closed user group initially - we have been working on the basis as setting IE6 and FF1.5 as the standard for browsers. Eventually we will look at support for more browsers, but it will always be limited due to the complexity of the interface. I hadn't actually noticed that I only had 1.0.7 on the Mac - only just got it last week (Mac Mini) purely for testing purposes.

Re: [css-d] display: table-cell --- why?
Rolf Mortenson wrote: Okay... so I recently posted this test page with a different problem, but I wonder if this would have benefited from display: table-cell or it's brethren? http://www.monkeypuzzle.net/testfiles/html_test_gc3/test5.html Actually, this would have benefited most from an actual table. The CSS display:table-cell is meant to mimic the display properties of a table cell, but without actually having the table semantics at the markup level. So why would you do that? Table cells in traditional HTML have been granted some unique properties. They have the ability to vertically center content with relative ease, for example, something that can be difficult to accomplish using other display types. And they have the ability to expand based on the content of adjacent elements, something you would otherwise need a direct container to accomplish. And, as someone already mentioned in the thread, they have the ability to style arbitrary XML elements and make them behave as tables. But the key in using display: table-* is that you need table-like display properties without wanting to have table-like semantics for people/machines that don't get or use the styling information. In other words, there are times when those properties can be very handy, but it isn't that often. Most of the time, when you want to see a table, you want to actually have a table in the structure, too. And there is also the difficulty that while display: table-cell and its siblings could be useful in certain places in the real world, they actually aren't, simply because the vast majority of the population uses a browser that doesn't support those values.

Hi Reynier:
foo is a word that is used in programming much like X is used in math. The
same goes for bar or, in math, Y.
There is no real value to them.
for example,
if($foo)
{
echo $bar;
}
is a common example used.
Hope this helps.

Quick question.. it says 10px = 15 mins?
So 40 pxs = 60 minutes or an hour.
There's one funny bogus there, I had overlooked - it appears that the
rules are a little complicated:
10px = 15 minutes of positioning. (and 40px=60min)
but
(10-5)px = 15 minutes of timespan, as
(40-5=35)px = 1hour of timespan
And actually it should be -6 there, namely 2x2pixel padding + 2 pixel
border that we don't want covered.
There's a small padding on the .work and .vacancy classes, which we have
to allow for. We could take it out, but then we would still have the
right-border covered, which isn't nice. So instead:
if you change
div.work, div.vacate {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
border: 0;
}
to
div.work, div.vacate {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
border: 0;
padding: 2px 1px 2px 2px;
}
Then it's there - deduct 5 pixels from the found width, and it fits.
I've changed my example a bit online
http://garion.dk/webdesign/scheduling.html - but only to demonstrate
the change mentioned above.
Kind regards

[css-d] CSS Style Switcher

I have been trying to use Paul Sowden's article at A List Apart (http://www.alistapart.com/stories/alternate/) as a guide, but I'm running into some snags.

I have a feeling I am missing something really obvious. I'm not sure if I needed to do any editing to Paul's styleswitcher.js file or not - I didn't touch it as he didn't mention that it needed to be edited. After looking around the internet and not finding where my problem might lie, I've come to beg for help. :) If anyone notices something off or has suggestions, I would be deeply grateful.

Since the original posting I've noticed that the problem does not seemt o
happen on a local machine. If I copy the generated HTML CSS Internet
Explorer does not demonstrate the error.
Kevin,
It appears you never received any answers to this question. This might
be due to the fact that you replied to an existing message to start your
thread, so your message likely got buried in many people's inboxes.
When I look at your page in both FF and IE in Windows, the select box
looks the same, except that the scrollbar is missing in IE. The font
size and color are unaffected in either and they just show my browser/OS
defaults. This is usually the case with select boxes.
Perhaps you are on a Mac and the browsers there do not rely on the OS as
much for list widget styling?

Maybe if I share my code with you, you might find the problem. My
switcher uses this to write the cookie:
?php
setcookie ('sitestyle', $set, time()+31536000, '/', 'rdpdesign.com', '0');
header(Location: $HTTP_REFERER);
?
I then have this for the stylesheet link tag:
link rel=stylesheet type=text/css media=screen title=user defined
href=?php echo (!$sitestyle)?'default':$sitestyle ?.css /
link rel=alternate stylesheet type=text/css media=screen
title=access href=/access.css /
and this for the switcher links:
a href=/switcher.php?set=defaultDefault Style/a
a href=/switcher.php?set=accessHigh Contrast/a
So clicking the links sets the variable $set to default or access,
then when the page reloads it writes the variable $set to the
'sitestyle' cookie, and then the link tag is written with the variable
$sitestyle that comes from the cookie.
Hopefully your mail client didn't eat up those tags. Let me know if this helps.

[css-d] True scalable, rounded buttons with CSS and images.
Recently, a project I was working on required some rounded buttons as menu items. 1. They needed to be pill-shaped like a Tylenol caplet. 2. The buttons would be on a background image and had to flow across it naturally. 3. The buttons would only hold one or two words, and always on one line of text. There would never be images inside the buttons. 4. The buttons needed to allow for scaling of the text inside without breaking the design. 5. The buttons themselves needed to scale as the text inside grew/shrank. 6. They couldn't rely on Javascript or any other kind of voodoo. I came up with a solution based on images and CSS that does allow the buttons to scale with the text. It's a little clunky, but it's the best I've seen. I was hoping to get some help on refining the process. Two problems: First, the whole setup blows up if CSS is off (that's not a huge issue for me, but it might be to some people). Second, the whole button isn't a clickable link right now, just the text on it is. I've got a tutorial up for people to see what I've done so far and all of the code is available there. The tutorial is located at http://www.writtenconspiracy.com/rounded_buttons/ Mostly I'm just sharing, but I think people will find this useful and hopefully someone can find some solutions for the problems it has. I'll gladly take any feedback that people have on it. Thanks!

* html ul li {float: left;height: 1%; }
* html ul li a {height: 1%;}

I fixed this by altering the above to a more specific version in ie.css:
div#navigation ul li {
float: left;
height: 1%;
}
div#navigation ul li a {
height: 1%;
}
and my uls suddenly have list-styles! Some have _two_ list-styles in

(These are nested within #page and #wrapper divs that are used to set a background image and create a right side margin on this layout, while allowing the width of the content div to remain fluid.) Within div#content, I have a floated div to contain product images. The first part of the content needs to wrap around div.thumbnail, as shown. But this copy may or may not exceed the overall height of div.thumbnail, depending on how many thumbs there are to display, and how much intro copy there is about the product. Following the introductory blurb, I need the next piece of content to drop down below the div.thumbnail. This second level of copy may start with a paragraph, an h3, or a table, but the key here is that I need it to clear that thumbnail div. But if I set whatever the block element is to clear left, it now drops down to sit on the page below the div#column height, as shown here: http://offlead.com/stuff/floattest/index2.html Is there a way to clear the bottom of the thumbnail div without clearing the bottom of the column div?

[css-d] Vertically scrollable and fluid container
I have a div that I want to be vertically scrollable and fluid at the
same time by using absolute positioning. In FF this works nicely, but in
IE it doesn't want to scroll the div because of the lack of a set
height. Is there any way around this issue? I'm probably doing this the
wrong way, so let me know if there's a better approach. Any help would
be appreciated.
Here is my CSS:
div#Content
{
bottom: 0;
left: 240px;
overflow: auto;
position: absolute;
right: 0;
top: 10px;
}

Re: [css-d] Need help figuring out how to implement a page layout
On 12/7/05, Mike Soultanian [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Here's what I'd like: Left nav column to be a fixed width, calendar column to be fixed, calendar details (right-most column) liquid. Also, just so you know, the rest of the site pages have a fixed nav with fluid content). My problem is I don't know how to implement this. I've been researching and found the following: 1. I found this simple 2-column layout page: http://realworldstyle.com/2col.html It doesn't use any hacks and seems to work in many browsers. For the calendar page, I was thinking of nesting another 2-column layout within the content side which would give me fixed-fixed-liquid columns. Not a bad idea, usually done that way. 2. Our campus web developers came up with a layout method where they float every column to the left like so: http://www.csulb.edu/divisions/dt/ They didn't come up with that, though I'm sure they are smart guys. Floats is the de-facto way to create columns with CSS. Is there any reason I can't just set fixed widths on the columns that I want fixed and then set percentages on the columns I want fluid? It seems like it could work, but it just seems to easy... Better: Make column 1 and 2 fixed, and column 3 width:auto, so it fills the rest of the available space. Or, float column 1 and 2 left, and make column 3 have a margin-left of the combined width of 1 and 2. That should give the exact behavior you want. Try something out, give us a url and we can help you from there. -- -- Christian Montoya christianmontoya.com ... rdpdesign.com ... cssliquid.com __ 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/
Re: [css-d] Hiding rules from FF1.07 on a Mac

The system isn't for general release for a few months, when it will be released to a closed user group initially - we have been working on the basis as setting IE6 and FF1.5 as the standard for browsers. Eventually we will look at support for more browsers, but it will always be limited due to the complexity of the interface. I hadn't actually noticed that I only had 1.0.7 on the Mac - only just got it last week (Mac Mini) purely for testing purposes. I would appreciate if you did some quick tests with a Firefox 1.5 Mac, to see if the problem still happens there. You can also use the latest Camino builds (1.0b1), which are identical to Firefox 1.5 as far as the core rendering engine is concerned. http://www.caminobrowser.org/ If the problem still occurs, could you save the offending page as a stand alone thing ? I could then build a simplified test case out of it. Thanks.

Re: [css-d] Why extra space in layout with IE 6 and not others?
Dan Moriarty wrote:
I have a layout problem on this page:
http://invision-optical.com/collections/
Why is there a bunch of extra space, vertically, between my main product
image and the table below, listing product numbers? This is only in IE 6,
but not in Safari on Mac, or Firefox on Windows?
There¹s an image and then a table starts right after the image.
Thanks for any help out there.
The relevant CSS here is as follows:
#collection_holder{
float:left;
width:742px;
margin-bottom:10px;
padding-bottom:60px;
background: url(/images_template/bg_collection.gif);
}
#collection_sidebar{
float:left;
width:150px
padding:10px;
}
#collection_content table{
text-align:center;
}
#collection_content{
margin-left:160px;
background: #fff;
text-align:center;
color:#000;
}
#collection_text{
margin-left:160px;
padding:10px;
}
Not sure as I am running 64bit mozilla and it appears fine, but I would
like to suggest that you start by validating the code. It currently
contains 52 errors.
Just above the table in question you have an UL without an opening tag.
I would start there.
