Re: [css-d] Most popular fonts for browsers
2008/4/9, David Hucklesby [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Personally, I do believe this subject is most relevant to the practical use of CSS. Rather than a design choice it's a question of what is available? Accordingly I'll put a book in my britches and mention a resource that's a bit more contemporary than those already listed: http://www.apaddedcell.com/web-fonts Cordially, David Thanks David for your useful resource. Thinking about it, I agree with you when you say that it is a matter of practical use of CSS. Anyway I think that we discussed this subject perhaps too bit further... Now we have all resources to make our choice concerning typefaces.

[css-d] Beginner CSS Having Absolution Pos Issue in IE7 WIN
Hello, new to this list group and CSS! Short intro - I am an illustrator and designer, and I reay enjoy making websites! I like the challenge it poses on me as I am a visual thinker and am not particularly tech savvy, though growing up with software engineers for parents, I am very comfy around computers; I am always willing to try new things. CSS being one of them! Having had only one class in web design where it was all about slicing and tables, I've been teaching myself CSS. It's been a lot of fun, and I really like it - except for all these browser issues! Onto my question - my website I'm working on www.scotty-valentine.com, is viewed perfectly fine in Safari and Firefox, but in IE 7WIN (works fine on IE MAC), there are some issues with elements that are absolutely positioned. I've looked over everything, searched the web and other forums for a solution, but I am not coming across any that is helping me. Essentially what is happening is SOME of my elements that are absolutely positioned are extending to the right further then they should. Now, I don't understand why this is happening, nor why it's only happening to SOME of the elements. Also, another odd issue is the background in my header is repeating vertically beyond what I designated should be seen (if that makes sense). Of course, I'm also having issues on older IE browsers - like PNG issues on top of the pos issues, but I am not gonna attack that headache - I will probably have to redirect people to download newer browser versions ... I think this is a viable solution? Any help on the pos issue would be awesome! I've been grappling with this for a couple days now!

Re: [css-d] Horrible Lag time in CS3 Design/WYSIWYG View
:) I know many are WYSIWYG averse, but unfortunately I have to make this product WYSIWYG friendly. I have tried what you recommended already and had already identified modules.css as the problem. I've gone line by line but am stuck trying to understand how/why CS3 is interpreting this perfectly valid CSS so slowly. I've stripped out all the orphans, removed the comments, kept the bare minimum...but nothing works. Which leads me to think its the combination of classes or the width auto on the modules...but I dont know of any other way of re-writing these other than how they are currently set. :/ On Wed, Apr 9, 2008 at 3:29 PM, css-d css-d@lists.css-discuss.org wrote: Craig Givens wrote: I'm in need of an expert Dreamweaver CS3 engineer or guru to take a look at why my CSS layout is experiencing such a horrendous 1-2 minute delay/refresh time in the WYSIWYG.

[css-d] Submenu Vertical Position in IE7
HI I put this together using Dreamweaver and their Spry Menu. Works well in FF (Windows/Mac) and Safari (Mac). But in IE7, when viewing a secondary page, submenu position is at the top of the containing div, and not next to it¹s main menu parent as it was/is on rollover. Any help is appreciated, I¹ve posted to two DW forums to no avail. I have made edits to original css, could be I messed it up or DW failed me.

[css-d] displays well with Safari only
I tried to reproduce the layout of project 2 in More Eric Meyer on CSS. It is supposed to make the page look like a photo gallery. The page can be seen at http://www.point-contrepoint.com/canevas/pointcompte/colifichets.htm It looks perfect with Safari on my computer (Mac Powerbook G4) but the background-images do not appear at all on ANY other browser. What can I have done wrong ?

[css-d] Resize an Image in relation to Screen Resolution
G'day Everyone I was wondering if someone could help me here. I want to resize an image so that it changes in relation to the screen resolution. I am pretty sure the size needs to be defined as a percentage but I just want to check.

Screen resolution is something else. regards Georg -- http://www.gunlaug.no __ 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] @media print height units
This CSS is meant to limit the printing of an html page (that may be longer than an A3 or A4 paper page), to printing just one page of the contents. But it doesn't work. The problem may be my use of cm as the height unit. 42cm is the height of an A3 sheet of paper, 29.7cm for A4.
