On the home page the border is placed correctly. Same css  file is being used.

Best,

Hi Kimi,
The difference is the ending /div of the #content. In the directors 
page it is placed after the #botnav, in the home page it is before.
Another difference is the div class=container center and the ending 
/div of it (just before the /div of the #content), which is not in 
the directors page.

One more suggestion. I notice that in IE the pages are jumping up and 
down, if the links in the #content are hovered (and/or after a refresh). 
This is due to an IE-bug, I gues a kind of Peekaboo. - Articles about 
resolving IE-bugs:

* http://www.communitymx.com/content/article.cfm?cid=C37E0
* http://www.positioniseverything.net/ie-primer.html
* http://www.positioniseverything.net/explorer.html

In this case, it can be resolved by giving a clear: both to the 
footer, and resetting the padding-top of the footer to zero. Then there 
is always some distance between the left side logo and the bottom colors 
of the page.
See testpage

Hi David

Thank you for posting your browsercam results.

I'm very disappointed.

IE5 seems like a hopeless case (the content has vanished as well as the 
menu).

However I reckon there might be a fix for IE 5.5 and 6, as they both 
seem capable of displaying the menu - they just need an excessive 
amount of horizontal space to do so

The H1 title, 'r n photography', floated right, has a 28em left margin 
to stop it colliding into the menu when the browser window is narrow. 
The menu is positioned absolutely, so the 28em left margin on the H1 
element SHOULD be measured from the left edge of the browser window 
(i.e. the dimensions of the menu SHOULD be ignored). It seems like 
things are working differently in IE 5.5 and 6, and the margin on the 
H1 element is hitting up against the menu and knocking it out of 
place

Hmmm. Back to the drawing board.

If anyone can understand what's going wrong, please let me know.

Cheers

Richard

 http://www.richardnicholson.com/testing/menu_with_frames8/editorial.html
 
Works well is a relative term, but it works the same in windows
browsers as in their Mac-OS equivalents.

Something _will_ eventually get lost on narrow windows, and more will
get lost when font resizing is applied. This is unavoidable when
'position: fixed' is used, so you'll just have to decide when it's
working well enough for comfort on a wide enough range.

 I'd like to get some feedback on whether it works in IE5 or 6 or 7 
 PC. I'm interested in what happens when the browser window is made 
 really narrow.

On really narrow windows (below 600 or something) the endless scroll
bug will take affect in IE6 - sideways. Will always happen when
pseudo-fixed elements are too wide for the window, and is not easily
preventable.

IE6 has a couple of more serious problems...
1: the nav doesn't always show up.
2: the nav gets cut off on the right side.

IE6 needs these additions in the separate stylesheet in order to behave
well enough (IMO).

#topbar #nav {position: relative; height: 1%; }

...to assure the nav stay visible and doesn't get cut off. This does in
fact make nav display as a block-element with 'hasLayout', but there
aren't all that many ways to get around those IE-bugs.

#topbar h1 {margin-bottom: -100px;}

...to prevent nav from dropping below h1 on narrow windows. The drop is
caused by the added styles above, but again: those IE-bugs are hard to
kill.

The result: IE6 still handles that layout better than other browsers,
IMO. Pretty far from standard behavior though :-)

Georg

Of course, I found a way to kill that bug too a while back...
http://www.gunlaug.no/contents/wd_additions_15.html
...described under *large elements “fixed” to viewport* - using removed
floats...
http://www.gunlaug.no/contents/wd_demo_float_03.html

However, using such a method to kill that IE-bug is better suited for
other cases than yours, since links that end up outside the window
because of the way the proper 'position: fixed' works, are inaccessible
in all browsers anyway.

Basically: the use of 'position: fixed' to hold vital text-elements in
view on limited window-sizes, is a dead end without the addition of
'overflow: auto/scroll' on the 'fixed' container.

Georg

Welcome.
Start with a solid foundation-- a base layout. And keep it simple. 
Number 36 in the bottom left corner of this page 
http://blog.html.it/layoutgala/ may work for you.Change total width of 
that layout to 800px; make #navigation 260px width; and #content 536px 
width; This will line up with your image which can be a background-image 
for #container..
Make this h1KLT NEWS/h1 and put it in #header.
Make this h2The Magazine of Whatever it is.../h2 and put it in #content.
Navigation usually treated as a list (of places to go).
Put this list http://css.maxdesign.com.au/listamatic/vertical01.htm in 
the #navigation column.
Code to Firefox with /frequent/ checks in IE (FF is almost always 
correct-- IE is almost always wrong).
The list wiki faq is a great resource for most anything you'll need (uri 
below)
If you get stuck write the list (or write me off-list).

Hi everyone, any help would be great:

I'm working on re-coding an existing website into XHTML/CSS and am
hitting a small snag: The banner ads section. Using min-width I am
able to get the desired behavior w/ Firefox but (big surprise) not in
IE...

http://www.alexburr.com/yehoodi/3/index.php

In IE when you resize the window down, the banner ad jumps down a line
to fit itself. What I want is for it to wrap under the right-hand
column as it does in FF...

Any thoughts? Thanks in advance...

[css-d] 4.0 STRICT - margins in IE6 taking up too much space bug?

2006-09-18 Thread lau Guerreiro
Hi,

It appears there's a bug in the way IE6.0 handles margins in 4.0 Strict 
mode.
Even though I am adding margins + paddings + width to come up with the 
actual box width there's still something weird happenning.
Here's a page that demonstrates the problem/bug. 
http://www.ezi10.com/ezi10/problem2.htm

I have an outer div with width=280px right-margin=0
I have an inner div with width=260px right-margin=20
When I put the inner Div inside the Outer Div and Float it left the outer 
div grows so that it become 300px wide.

It doesn't happen if I don't float the Div left.

Is this a bug or am I missing something? I've tested this in IE 6.029 and 
6.037

I need to float the inner div left because on my actual page want to have 
two inner divs forming two columns thus 
http://www.ezi10.com/ezi10/problem.htm

Thanks in advance,
Lau

I am not sure I understand. Maybe you, or someone else, can clarify this 
question. The punctuation character #174; is a registered trademark 
sign. It is an /uppercase/ R in a circle.
If you had a need to make the trademark sign, or some other punctuation 
character, larger than the text it is in, then this is one way:
CSS
body {  font: normal 100%/1.3 Georgia, serif; }
p span {  font-size: 300%;}

2006-09-18 Thread Optrics Engineering - Rod Miles, B.Eng.

Hello,

Is it possible to style a special character such as #174; to show as
uppercase next to regular text? Using text-transform: uppercase;
doesn't work.
Thanks
AG


Hi Ara,

As you can see from this table:
 http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html32#charset

There is no uppercase equivalent to some special characters. 

Cheers,
Rod

Re: [css-d] Page border up in the air

2006-09-18 Thread Kim Brooks Wei
Thanks for your help, Francky. I followed your advice for the IE fix. 
My pages  don't jump in IE 5.2 Mac now. I wonder how they're 
looking look in IE 6.x.

The gap between the bottom of my body border and browser window still 
appears in Safari and FF. Interestingly enough, I'm not having 
problems with this in IE 5.2. I can get rid of the gap in  FF by 
adding a min-height selector to the content div tall enough to push 
the border down [can't get rid of it in Safari at all].  I know 
something is fundamentally wrong with my code -- a page border should 
border an entire page, and not just part of the page.

Additionally, I've discovered that an ordered list on doesn't 
function as an ol. There are no numbers!

OL at http://www.njlada.com/c/directors.php

Best,
Kimi

One more suggestion. I notice that in IE the pages are jumping up and
down. In this case, it can be resolved by giving a clear: both to the
footer, and resetting the padding-top of the footer to zero. Then there
is always some distance between the left side logo and the bottom colors
of the page.
See testpage

Sorry about the double-post, all...

On 9/18/06, Tim Gossett [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 I believe Ara meant to say superscript instead of uppercase...
 otherwise, his question would make no sense.

 If that is the case, Ara, you would need to wrap the character in a
 div or span to be able to style it. The only way to style individual
 characters (that are not wrapped in some other element) is to use a
 psudeo-class like p:first-child. If your registered trademark happens
 to be the last character of some parent element, then you might be
 able to use parentElement:last-child to style the #174; character.

Ara, it might just be easier to wrap reg; in sup tags... that way,
it'll look correct when CSS is turned off... that would put this
thread off-topic, though.

[css-d] Link works in IE not in Firefox

2006-09-18 Thread Sharyn Horowitz
Two disclaimers:

1) This is my first post,  I'm probably breaking all kinds of rules 
so I apologize in advance
2) I know the below horrible on many levels... I inherited the site
and it's going to be redesigned very soon.

But in the meantime, I have to wedge a new link somewhere in this div
crazy page.

div id=helpdesk style=position:absolute; left:476px; top: 237px;
width:100px; padding:5px; border:solid 1px #BCD4E5;  font-family:
verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; Line-Height: 14px
NEW: a href=helpdesk.htmlIT Help Desks/a/div

This works just fine in IE but in Firefox it looks fine but the link
doesn't work. When I double click on the link text, words in another
div get highlighted! It's for an intranet page, and Firefox is not
supported, so this is really just for curiosity  perfectionism's
sake.

 Hi, I'm new to this list.  Sorry I didn't find it years ago.
   
Welcome.
 I'm perplexed by a problem with IE 6 adding an extra few pixels at  
 the bottom of a div.

 There are two places this occurs at http://www3.rgallery.us/index.html
   
I was not able to access the file.
 Maybe someone can help me see where the problem is with the first,  
 simpler, and non-floated case:

 div#top {
   width:638px;
   border: 1px solid #560116;
   }

 Which contains two images:

 div id=top
   a href=/index.htmlimg src=images/logo.jpg alt=Home  
 width=190 height=106 border=0 //aimg src=images/ 
 home_top.jpg alt=Staging: Innovative and Effective Design Solutions  
 that Sell Homes width=448 height=106 border=0 /
 /div

 This renders fine in Firefox and Safari.  IE7 requires that I @import  
 a fix:

 div#top {height: 106px;}

 but I haven't found anything for IE6.  Instead, there is a gap of  
 about three pixels between the bottom of the images and the border.
   
See if this helps:
div#top {  width:638px;   height: 106px;  border: 1px solid #560116;   }
win/IE/6 and down get this hack enclosed in a conditional comment:

style type=text/css 
div#top img {  display: block;height: 1%;  }

Yes and no.  Your suggestion solved the second issue (which I thought  
would be harder because it involved floated div's to set up columns.

Adding

div#body img {display:block;}

to the IE6 style sheet fixed the second problem.  But in the first  
div I had two images side-by-side and the block display directive  
caused them to be rendered above and below.  Your hint suggested that  
I wrap each image in its own div.

Then, in the IE6 css, the same declaration applies.

div#top img {display:block;}

So thanks very much for the help.

Re: [css-d] styling the legend element

Paul Collins wrote:

Hi all,

I know CSS support for the legend element is currently minimal, but I was 
wondering if anyone has ever managed to float it left in the major browsers? 
In particular, IE5+, Firefox, Safari. 

I've got a graphic title inside which I have also floated left, was hoping I 
could override the legend element in some way and use a styling directly on 
this, but I just can't get it to float left in IE.

Here is the code sample:

form action=index_logged_on.html method=post
 fieldset
  legendimg src=images/header_title_bookings.gif width=116 
 height=29 alt=BOOKINGS: Login to your account//legend
  input type=text name=username class=login_field value=username/
  input type=text name=password class=login_field_password 
 value=password/
  input type=image src=images/header_go_button.gif alt=Go  
 name=login id=login value=GO/
 /fieldset
/form

If you notice any other discrepancies in the HTML, please ignore them and 
let's focus on the topic at hand!!

Also, does anybody know a good link to further information on styling the 
legend? It would be great to know what CSS attributes can be used in each 
browser.

Cheers,
Paul

Hi David's,
The horizontal scrollbar is due to the padding-left in the #content, 
which has also a {width: 100%;}.
This is clipping the bg-img too, I think. A margin-left for the 
#content-left can solve it.
The .separatorInvisible is not working in FF and others, because of the 
{ height: 0; }, then it is not present. You can give it a height of 1px 
and a negative margin-bottom of -1px, then the visual result is the 
same: no space is eaten.
IMO it's not a FF quirk: with proper css FF is fine, and IE needs a 
correction. ;-)

All together: see testpage 
http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/css-discuss/test-eurovision.htm.
The results in some main browsers are savesound here in 
browsershots.org 
http://browsershots.org/screenshots/56a099e7c1e1881f3c2dc81b5bfc48e7/.

 Hi David's,
 The horizontal scrollbar is due to the padding-left in the #content,
 which has also a {width: 100%;}.
 This is clipping the bg-img too, I think. A margin-left for the
 #content-left can solve it.
 The .separatorInvisible is not working in FF and others, because of  
 the
 { height: 0; }, then it is not present. You can give it a height of  
 1px
 and a negative margin-bottom of -1px, then the visual result is the
 same: no space is eaten.
 IMO it's not a FF quirk: with proper css FF is fine, and IE needs a
 correction. ;-)

 All together: see testpage
 http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/css-discuss/test- 
 eurovision.htm.
 The results in some main browsers are savesound here in

Hi Franky,

Thanks for all your effort! That is most helpful. I'll get to and  
apply your recommendations, which obviously work from your testpage.  
I also need to think about why these do what they do. For instance,  
why 100% width can't have padding, which I thought was possible as I  
understood padding to be internal content. I'll have to do a bit more  
reading!

You are no doubt right about FF. I shouldn't have assumed!

Thanks again for all your help!
David

 Thanks David...

   
 I would appreciate help in finding out why I can't get the background
 image to display properly in Firefox (both Mac and Win). It renders
 fine in Safari and Opera (Mac) and in IE 6 (Win). If anyone is able
 to check it in IE 7 I'd appreciate that?

 I do not know what is causing this.
 
 Yes, I hadn't tried Mozilla, but you are right. Thanks for the other  
 checks, too. This is the problem I'm asking the group as to what it  
 could be. I'm really only a learner in CSS, and stumped as to what it  
 could be.
   
 There seems to be no problem in these browsers (the page appears  
 identical)

 Gecko/20060516 SeaMonkey/1.0.2

 aside: how come the 185px horizontal scroll bar at 1280 in all  browsers?
 
The massive h-scroll bar was due to padding on #content.
Additionally, there were a few other contributing factors.
You'll see the changes noted on this file 
http://www.chelseacreekstudio.com/arch.html.
I regret that I did not find what is causing Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; 
Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/
to block the image*pg_bkg_grfk.jpg.*

Anyone?
Best

 Works fine in recent browsers: Safari 2.0, Firefox 1.5 and newer,  
 Opera 9.
 Older version(s) of Gecko (Firefox 1.0, Mozilla 1.7.13) have a  
 problem with clearing your floated blocks.
 Your div class=separatorInvisible isn't really clearing, because  
 it is empty, sort of.
 Add a non-breaking character in there, and it will work correctly
 div class=separatorInvisible#160;!-- x --/div

 (Or use another technique to contain your floats.)

Thanks, Philippe.
I have used this technique from a book i've been using (Web  
Designer's Reference, by Craig Grannell). He doesn't seem to us the  
non-breaking character in his sample. What other techniques are there  
to contain floats? Can you point me in the right direction?

David
