Re: [css-d] Hover delay
A good point Tedd. Sometimes we strive to be over complex, when simplicity would probably be better. I have seen plenty of examples of what I want to achieve, but they all rely on each thumbnail being accessible to :hover without triggering any adjacent ones. The only way round that one would be to include a large space between elements to allow the pointer to navigate without triggering. Absolutely wonderful for a CSS maze but totally useless to the normal user! g The jury's still out on whether to use a peripheral array of thumbnails using a fly-out on :hover, or whether to use a block of thumbnails (which would allow an infinite number next to each other) with the fly-out triggered by mouse clicks. I certainly won't be resorting to JavaScript and I'm sure CSS will achieve a satisfactory method.

The typical way is of course to move the pointer across things and then click on what you want to see -- that's simple enough and expected. To put a delay into that functionality so that user doesn't have to click, then you'll have to use javascript. But what if a user does click during that time? Do you want the image to enlarge? I think you'll find this is a bigger problem than what you might imagine. My advice, keep it simple and what the user expects. Besides, without javascript that's what it's going to do anyway, right?

But margins are supposed to be transparent according to the spec (I can't find an exception anywhere). This is probably correct according to what is in the spec at [1], in particular: The background of the root element becomes the background of the canvas and covers the entire canvas... For HTML documents, however, we recommend that authors specify the background for the BODY element rather than the HTML element. For HTML documents whose root HTML element has computed values of 'transparent' for 'background-color' and 'none' for 'background-image', user agents must instead use the computed value of those properties from that HTML element's first BODY element child when painting backgrounds for the canvas, and must not paint a background for that BODY element. In short: if there is no background on HTML (i.e. it is transparent), then the background specified on BODY is applied to the whole canvas, not really to the BODY. Bruno Today I came across this statement (don't ask me where, I lost the link): For HTML, but not for XHTML, the CSS2.1 specification recommends that we specify the document background for the body element, rather than for the html element. If the computed value of the background property for the html element is transparent (the initial value), any background properties specified for the body element will be applied to the canvas. This isn't the case for XHTML. But I am unsure if they mean XHTML in general or strictly served as xml?

Re: [css-d] IE 6 is butchering my pages.
Remove float:left; from .content
that will sort out your float drop, which is also apparent in IE7.
Your HTML will not validate because you have several br tags which should be
br / tags in the particular DOCTYPE you're using. I only checked about but
you should check all pages.
Instead of using a nbsp; above your div id=photo style #photo img { } with
appropriate margins to get your positioning exact and without spurious borders.

Subject: [css-d] IE 6 is butchering my pages.
Hi all,
A small troubleshooting problem that is driving me CRAZY:
http://www.akisma.com/design/carrot/
Renders fine in every other browser I've checked, but in IE6, the home
page renders fine, aside from a little bordering around the photo that
looks trashy (any suggestions?) but all the other pages get their main
content bounced out of the main div. Any ideas? I've validated,
checked doctypes, etc, but I'm not a master at this and I'm trying to
improve my browser-argument skills. Also, I haven't checked it in IE7
since I don't have a unique copy of windows (I develop on a mac), so
I'm not sure if it's being screwed over there, too.
Any help would appreciated, especially pointers to articles with a
rundown of IE problems in addition to this specific-case advice.
Thanks all!
Jess

[css-d] Negative margins versus Positioning
I was getting reaquanted with 'A List Apart's tutorial on css shadows. and i noticed they used negative margins for pulling out the image. I first asked myself, Why not use negative relative positioning? Is it a matter of choice? At first i thought, Relative positioning adds possibility that you might need an extra parent div to set positioning context, but quickly realized relative positioning doesnt need that. Is it cause the next sibling item after the item that uses relative positioning will appear in normal flow (thus annoying whitespace between siblings), thus negative margins is more natural since next item will be placed right after it [and nullifying my entire question since pointless to use relative positioning then for comparision]? I guess my question would make more sense if i was comparing absolute positioning when an extra semantic div is added to establish positioning context (with position:relative) and the image underneith uses absolute negative positioning to pull image up. but i guess i answered my own question, it adds more complex code?

That sequence is a suitable (for your case) way to trigger Layout[1] in
old IE/win without disturbing other browsers. Of course, you can always
use another 'hasLayout' trigger, if you like.

I may be missing the obvious, but in a side-by-side on screen comparison
of IE/6.0. IE/7.0, and Mac Firefox/2.0.0.14 I see no difference,
I was also wondering how I could center the text Contact Us vertically in

This will, more or less (and that's all that really counts in my book),
center it vertically:
#topBreak {
height: /*17px amend*/2.75em;
padding-top: 0.5em;/*add*/}
Trivial pursuits:
1/ Never write site check for a subject line without validating the
document fist.
2/ To this selector:
.container {background-color:#fff; /*add*/}
3/ Remember, not to forget, that the vast majority of your users will be
on IE. Make it /easy/ for children of all ages to scale the fonts in
that browser.
4/ All things considered-- nice work!
