[css-d] drop down bug in IE6
Test case is here: http://www.maujorsite.com/temp/teste.html When we open the 2nd and 3th level submenus the links left, right and bottom borders are missed in IE5.0 IE5.5 IE6 (don't test in IE7 until now).

[css-d] Missing width and height for img: why IE doesn't show the image when I'm using CSS?
Hello everyone, I'm sorry to bother with such a stupid issue but I couldn't find a way to explain (first to myself and then to my boss) why if I don't put the height and width attribute to any image of my page IE doesn't show it I'm always using CSS to style the page, ASP or PHP. I know the images are shown in the case it is a plain html file without any style in it. I know defining height and width is a good practise and makes your code valid. I also know a lot of reasons why it is needed (browser rendering, accessibility, browsing, etc...) But I simply cannot explain why IE doesn't show them!! I hope some of you could help me :) thanks a lot!

Please provide a URL of a demo page (and tell us the version of IE you are using). I know the images are shown in the case it is a plain html file without any style in it. There's probably some strange error involved. It would be possible to intentionally create such a situation on IE by using CSS code that says img { display: none; } and img[width][height] { display: inline; } but you have hardly done anything like that. Or have you? There _might_ be something in the CSS that prevents images from being shown and something that overrides this when the attributes are present. (But in IE, this is possible in IE 7 in Standards Mode only, since otherwise IE ignores a selector with attribute selectors.) Jukka K.

[css-d] IE horiszontal list positioning + overly verbose CSS
Hi everyone. Medium-time reader, first time poster here. Please let me know if I'm doing anything wrong. I've been attempting to learn how to build sites using CSS for positioning, but usually get frustrated by browser quirks, and eventually fold and revert to either: - table-based techniques - simply droppping or redesigning the problematic element. I'm working as a research assistant at my university and am currently building an online interview/other media archive for my boss's work on Australian hip-hop. I'm working off an existing Wordpress template since I thought this would be a good way to ease into CSS. Everything seemed to be OK till I tested the site on Win IE6, at which point I found out it doesn't like my horizontal nav menu, moving it up and to the right of where it should be. I've read that IE doesn't like an absolute element nested in a relative one, which I guess is what's giving me grief. The site is here: http://localnoise.net.au/ The CSS for the menu is attached below. As you can see, it's pretty long-winded, and my guess is there's a shorter, more IE-friendly way of doing this. Ideas? Thanks, Pat -- CSS: #header ul { height:40px; list-style-type :none; position: relative; text-align:center ; } #header ul li { display:inline; } #header ul li a { background-position:center ; background-repeat:no-repeat ; display:block; height:40px; padding:0pt; position :absolute; top: 80px; } #header ul li a.nav_interviews { background:transparent url(images/header/interviews.gif) no-repeat scroll center bottom ; left:310px ; width:130px; } #header ul li a.nav_interviews:hover, #header ul li a.nav_interviews.current{background-position :center top; } #header ul li a.nav_papers { background:transparent url(images/header/papers.gif) no-repeat scroll center bottom ; left:440px ; width:84px; } #header ul li a.nav_papers:hover, #header ul li a.nav_papers.current {background-position :center top; } #header ul li a.nav_press { background:transparent url(images/header/press.gif) no-repeat scroll center bottom ; left:524px ; width:72px; } #header ul li a.nav_press:hover, #header ul li a.nav_press.current {background-position :center top; } #header ul li a.nav_audio { background:transparent url(images/header/audio.gif) no-repeat scroll left bottom ; left:598px ; width:70px; } #header ul li a.nav_audio:hover, #header ul li a.nav_audio.current {background-position :center top; } #header ul li a.nav_video { background:transparent url(images/header/video.gif) no-repeat scroll center bottom ; left:668px ; width:68px; } #header ul li a.nav_video:hover, #header ul li a.nav_video.current {background-position :center top; } #header ul li a.nav_links { background:transparent url(images/header/links.gif) no-repeat scroll right bottom ; left:736px ; width:89px; } #header ul li a.nav_links:hover, #header ul li a.nav_links.current {background-position :center top; } #header ul li a.nav_about { background:transparent url(images/header/about.gif) no-repeat scroll left bottom ; left:825px ; width:75px; } #header ul li a.nav_about:hover, #header ul li a.nav_about.current {background-position :center top; } __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

I'm trying to make something looking similar to a lightbox, but on a page without any JavaScript. Two things that I need to do: 1. Show a gray, semi-transparent sheet over the entire page 2. Position another element - the lightbox - somewhere in the middle of the page I have some ideas for #2, but am a total loss for #1. Can anyone guide me in this? Is there a good resource which explain how these things work?

Kiara Hi Kiara We will need a test case here to see what's happening as what you say is not quite correct. Since an image (inline replaced element) has a intrinsic dimension [1], no width or height is needed in the html or CSS at all for it to be shown. Defining a height and width in the html for an image keeps a space reserved on the page for the image before it has downloaded. Any defined dimension in the html will overrule any intrinsic dimension or any dimension in the CSS for an image. Defining a height and width in the CSS for an image will overrule the intrinsic dimension of the image and is the value that is used by the user agent, but before the image is fully downloaded, the intrinsic dimension is unknown so the width and height in the CSS can not computed as a used value, so because of all this, it is common to have any dimension first given in the html. Does that make sense. I bet the boss will say what!.

I putted the text a div because text may not wrap around the image. You don't want the text to wrap under the image (if present)? Then you need the margin or width. I may not be understanding exactly what you want to do. Pages with image need to have the left column clear, pages without images text should be flush left (no left column)? Tim __ Do You Yahoo!?

I've read that IE doesn't like an absolute element nested in a relative one, which I guess is what's giving me grief. You've heard wrong. IE has absolutely no problems with absolute positioned elements nested in relative ones, as it would otherwise not be possible to position anything in that browser. IE does however have serious problems with 'hasLayout'[1] triggers on elements next to other elements, and the 'height: 40px' on '#header ul' is such a trigger. This causes the '#header ul' to line up next to h2.replace and be shorter, instead of lining up across it at full width. Same problem in IE7 btw.

And I'll probably submit it again... everyone will get tired of me submitting... Boddie Hi Boddie I use to do the same with the widths. Consider the difference between a static block element and static inline element A static block element such as a div, ul and li will expand the full width of it's containing block [1], so giving the block element a width of 100% changes nothing, but with IE the element gains hasLayout and this depending on the layout can render in a myriad of ways. This changes when the element is floated or positioned where it will now shrink wrap it's contents. So when we use auto for a width it is because we are overruling a width that is already applied to the same element. Example. #nav li {width:200px} #nav li li {width:auto} A inline (non-replaced) element such as an a will be as wide as the anonymous boxes [2] it contains so we make it behave as a block element such as a div by declaring #nav li a {display:block} so now it is as wide as it's containing block which is the li. I think it's common when learning CSS to cover all bases in this fashion by giving every element a width %, em, px, auto or slapping position:relative on every major div and then further along in our learning curve sending IE buggy by inducing hasLayout everywhere. Reading the specs bit by bit and testing by removing this and that helps to come to grasp with how CSS works. Keep on submitting, I learned a bit myself while working with your page.

Re: [css-d] Missing width and height for : why IE doesn't show theimage when I'm using CSS?
Hello again! Thanks for the answers, some of them have been very helpful. Jukka K. Korpela wrote: That sounds very odd. Please provide a URL of a demo page (and tell us the version of IE you are using). this is a url we can use for testing http://www.ccilanciano.com/dev/test php , the real page is www.ccilanciano.com, as you can see, IE 7 and IE6 don t show the images when height= and width=. If you try to load the same images with the same attributes in a new html file (no css), they will be shown! There's probably some strange error involved. It would be possible to intentionally create such a situation on IE by using CSS code that says img { display: none; } and img[width][height] { display: inline; } but you have hardly done anything like that. Or have you? No, I haven't! you can see it in the css that is linked to that page... ~dL I found your article very interesting! Thanks a lot, will be very helpful in the future. I hate IE. Alan Please refer to the previous urls for a test case. I'm sorry, I'm reading this newsletter since months but that is my first post here and being clear is not so easy as it seems!! (I like your website a lot, I think I already noticed it in the past, should be in my favourites. Pleasure to discuss with you) I think I've kinda figured out what is happening here and my statement was actually not correct. If I use this syntax: width= height= the image in IE7 and below is not shown. If I omit height and width, then the image is back there. It was weird though when I tried in a plain HTML file with only an image in it, with width= height= it was shown in the correct way (I m going to check it again though). Maybe some of you can see what the point is now I'm not an IT person, so probably some of you has got a correct definition for this. What I can guess is just IE giving value 0 when the value for width and height are left empty. Anyway, thanks for all your answers! I hope everyone will have a nice weekend!!

t show the images when height= and width= If the height and width are explicitly set to zero, well, they'll be zero. If they're *left out entirely*, that's not great, but at least it doesn't display them with a width and height of zero. joel __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
[css-d] Same issue in another site with CSS in IE 6 and 7 on a .asp site
David, The path for the site in my earlier email was incorrect. Thank you! That site works now. However, I have the same issue with this site: http://clic.edu/newclic/clicdir.asp the path to the csshover.htc is /newclic/includes/csshover.htc but it won't work in IE Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Deb David McCreath wrote: On 10/24/07, Deb Bergeron [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've been trying in vain to get this menu to work when I link to it via an 'include' file with an .shtml extension. Hi, Deb - I think the problem might just be the path you set for the csshover.htc file. You have it pointing at /includes/csshover.htc, and I get a 404 there. However, I did find a copy at /mla_new/includes/csshover.htc.

Either you fill in the dimensions in the width= and height=: width=xx and height=xx or you remove the width= height= out of the html source code or you can explicitly set the dimensions in the stylesheet.
