[css-d] IE Font Size issue

[Jehangir Larry]

I have a test page at:
http://www.jehangirlarry.com/test.php

I am unable to reduce the font size in any version of IE.
FF/Opera are OK.

Many thanks.

If this is the solution you tried...

I can't check what you have removed, but a properly applied 'negative 
margins on floats' solution, as described in that ALA article, will 
solve the problem you have now by isolating the columns from each other.

First: delete the   you have at the start of  in the 
source code, and then add...

DIV#menu {float: left;}
UL#nav {background: transparent;}

The DIV#menu style makes all browsers expand to contain the UL#nav, and 
the UL#nav style prevents IE's cover-up operation.

[css-d] Some positioning dilemmas

[Robert Reed]

I've been developing a web site template, and I'm almost done with the
recently requested changes except I'm having two issues.

1.) I tried to use the fixed width left column, fluid right column system as
described at A List Apart, with negative margins.  After I found out that
the negative margins weren't doing anything, I removed them.  The idea was
to go with a fixed 220px column on the left, and a fluid right column.  The
problem is using margin-left on a container with 100% width seems to
immediately tell Firefox that we're going to ignore that declaration.
Consequently, the right container which has 100% width but a margin-left
request of 230px, doesn't adhere to the margin.  It sits pushed below the
left column in its own little space, and needs to come up.

2.) The menu needs to come up to hang out on the same line with the
background.  I've used clearing divs and it doesn't seem to do the trick.

The site is http://zwisp.owningthedot.net
The CSS file: http://zwisp.owningthedot.net/style.css

Thanks in advance.

Thank you for the replies both on and off-list. The good news is I seem 
to be the only one in the world for whom the issue(s) persists.

Best,

Indeed it does Bruno, as does avoiding italics on that element.

Thank you so much for the reply, and for the additional information
that's in the sample you provided.

Just as we were getting bored, having found solutions to most of IE 5/6
problems, Microsoft kindly came along with more challenges to keep
us on our toes.   :\

David,

It also renders fine at all zoom levels under Opera/9.23 x86_64-Linux.

In that specific page I believe they are triggered by the italics in a
widthless right float (the span with class .tag) [1].   Overflow:auto on
that float seems to fix the problem.

David,

It renders fine at all zoom levels under Opera/9.00 build 3447 Mac OS X 
10.4.9.  It might be an Opera bug...

Have you tried the WAT toolbar?  Using the Show Applied Styles option 
under the CSS menu might help.

http://www.paciellogroup.com/resources/wat-about.html#download

It works fine under Mac OS X.

That's bizarre! Anyway, you fixed it for IE6 by giving 
".special-wrap-logos00" "hasLayout". Giving this same DIV
"hasLayout" for IE7 seems to fix it. Try this:

  .special-wrap-logos00 {zoom:1;}

Now *I* have a question for the experts:

Where does the horizontal scroll bar come from in IE7?

I notice this on a number of web pages, including my own.

Anyone?

Cordially,
David

Re: [css-d] Any tips on image loading?

[Brooke Nelson]

Yes for me it loads pretty quickly too, but I agree with Kenny, you
could make that green grid background a small image that just repeats.
That may help. Otherwise, looks good!

[css-d] :: Opera/9.23 Mac ::

[David Laakso]

Georg,

I have a little rendering mystery. Opera/9.23 Mac is not behave quite 
the same as Opera/9.23 Win on this page:

uri

(I would suggest disabling images unless you plan to take in a movie 
while you wait for them to load)

css


For example, the ul numeral 01 should be red. And it is red in 
both OS at 100%.
But Opera/Mac /does not retain the red color/ at 90% and below, or at 
110% and up.

On this test page with the ul isolated there is no problem whatsoever in 
Opera/Mac-- the color of the numeral 01 is red regardless of the percent 
of font-zoom.


Where have I gone wrong?

Thank you.

[css-d] HTML Dog son of suckerfish problems

[Sam Germein]

Hi everyone, I have been subscribed to this list for a while now and I think
an excellent resource.

Anwyay I was hoping someone may be able to help me with a problem I am
having.

I have been working on a vertical drop down menu using the HTML Dog son of
suckerfish code. I have done a few horizontal menus without problem, but IE7
is causing me dramas here (I haven't even bother with 6 as of this stage).

I have a link to the page here

[URL="http://samgermein.com/dropdown/default1.htm
"]http://samgermein.com/dropdown/default1.htm[/URL]

It looks right in firefox but in IE7 there is a small cap under every list
item that has a drop down. (eg about us link red border does not extend all
the way down)

the layout css is here

[URL="http://samgermein.com/dropdown/default1.htm
"]http://samgermein.com/dropdown/default1.htm[/URL]

Regards

Sam Germein
