 Thanks David. That worked beautifully. I validated the CSS, but I haven't
 done the html yet. Will be doing that tomorrow before I get too much
 further. Thanks so much for your time.

Re: [css-d] Testing CSS for higher screen resolutions

2008-08-25 Thread Kevin Doyle
snip
My screen resolution is 1024x768, and the content of my site fits that
window nicely.  I want to test how it will behave on a monitor with higher
resolution.  
/snip

Hi Lisa,

Another trick, which you may have already thought of, is to just play with the 
resolution on your own screen... assuming that 1024x768 isn't the highest 
setting you can crank your monitor to. If you're Windows-based, right-click on 
your desktop, select Properties, then select the Settings tab. You'll see a 
slider there that you can hopefully slide around for different resolution 
settings. Just make sure you select a setting that's in the correct proportion 
(4:3) to your current screen.

There are also a couple sites out there that will run your sites at different 
resolutions and then send you screen captures of it... unfortunately, I can't 
remember the URL for those sites. Can anyone help me out?

Ah but caution. If you change your resolution in Windows, it will foul up your 
desktop arrangement.

It will not be restorted if you again select your original rsolution.

[css-d] Horizontal scrolling in iframe

2008-08-25 Thread Daniel Hammond
URL: http://www.studentremix.org/test/ms/media.htm
CSS: http://www.studentremix.org/test/ms/ms.css

In the iframe, I want the photo thumbnails to scroll horizontally, not
vertically as they do now. I want them to be in one row, only one thumbnail
tall, if that makes sense. I wrapped them in a div (which has the royal blue
background color for the sake of easy visibility/identification) and gave it
a specific pixel-based height, but it still automatically expands vertically
to hold the content instead of horizontally. I achieved this desired effect
in the past, but I believe I did it with a table. I'd rather stick to pure
CSS this time. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Daniel

Really? That didn't do anything for me. Especially since I would think
something needs to be done with the photoThumbMainWrapper selector, not
the iframePhotos one. If you have a URL that you could provide that shows
it working how it should, that would be helpful. Thanks for the effort.

No URL, just local file...

But it wasn't actually a fix, sorry. Was caused by the page spreading 
across dual monitor desktop.

My bad, ignore me. Nice site though, like the nav...

Hi there to you! Not seeing the dotted border in WinXP-SP2/FF03, but adding 
to your CSS bit,

ul.nav a{ display: block;

may resolve blue space switching issue. Also, is the Cheshire Cat dotted 
line a border or text-decoration? Make sure you are killing the right one.

I assume you're seeing that in iExploder, right ?
overflow-x:hidden or overflow-y:hidden will hide the scrollbar you  
don't want.

Re: [css-d] Horizontal scrolling in iframe

2008-08-25 Thread Estelle Weyl
You can use overflow-x and overflow-y properties separately, instead of just 
overflow: scroll

http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-box/#overflow 

It's been supported since Mozilla 1.8 and IE5. I think all browsers support it 
even though it wasn't part of CSS2.1 specs (it will likely be in CSS3).

Sounds like a topic for a blog post ;-)

Re: [css-d] superfluous borders on hover

2008-08-25 Thread Estelle Weyl
First off, you want to make you A a block level element. This will cure the 
non-centering, since right now you are pushing the first word over to the right 
with 20px of padding, and the left word has 20px of padding to the right.

Also, In bc4hkids.css @ line 117, you have:

#main a:hover {
border-bottom:1px dotted #003757;
}

but you don't have a border on it when not in hover state, which may be causing 
the problem.  
That's on the A, not the LI

To get rid of the other dotting, you included

a {outline: none;}

which is great.

the one pixel of dark blue on the bottom seems to be part of the background on 
the LI showing thru.  When i remove the margin-bottom on the LI (line 77), that 
extra blue border goes away.

Also, you don't need to be redundant:

ul.nav a {
text-decoration: none;
padding: 2px 20px;
margin: 0;
color: #fff;
font-weight: bold;
text-align: center;
}
ul.nav a:hover {
margin: 0;
padding: 2px 20px;
border: none;
color: #36C; background: #fff;
}

the hover can be written as:
ul.nav a:hover {
color: #36C; 
background: #fff;
}
since it inherits everything else from the previous statement.
