Re: [css-d] Pseudo frame and Skip to Content, unexpected behaviour
Hi Georg Thank you for suggesting that - I tried it but in Firefox on a pc the effect is to push the content 175 pixels down the computer screen below the pseudo frame, ie creating a big empty space between the masthead image and the start of the text. But I am grateful to you, all the same, for giving this so much thought.

Re: [css-d] IE7, background-image - displays OK on one page but not on the others
Hello,
I started deleting parts of your page (of the html code) and recognized
that after I deleted the footer, the.#fauxframe was displayed. Then I
inserted the footer again and started commenting out its CSS
definitions. That way I found out that if you delete the height: 1%; for
the footer, the the #fauxframe is displayed:
#footer, #pieddepage, #seitenende {
clear: both;
margin: 0;
padding: 0 0 3em 20em;
font-size: 70%;
/*height: 1%;*/ -- comment this out
text-align: left;
}
Don't aks me why that fotter style influences the #fauxframe , because
honestly I don't know. ;)

Re: [css-d] IE7, background-image - displays OK on one page but not on the others
Hi Christian
That way I found out that if you delete the
height: 1%; for the footer, the the #fauxframe is displayed:
That worked like a magic charm - I am so relieved - thank you.
However, in IE 6 it resulted in the footer
relocating itself halfway up the page, so I put
back the height but with an underscore in front of it, ie
_height: 1%;/* to fix footer to bottom of screen in IE6 */
and that did return to the footer to the bottom
of the screen in IE6. Somewhere I have read,
though, that using underscore like this is not a
good idea (though it works). When I have time, I could try substituting
* html body div#footer, div#pieddepage, div#seitenende {
height: 1%;
}
which, I understand, is visible only to IE6, not
to IE7, but I don't know if that would be better coding.
Don't aks me why that fotter style influences
the #fauxframe , because honestly I don't know. ;)
CSS is full of things like this, isn't it? I
more than half-expected the solution to be completely illogical :-)
This is a wonderful list; I hope that I can give
back to it as much good as I have derived from it.
Kind regards
Rachel

Hello Nancy,
IE8 does support conditional comments.
http://css-class.com/test/bugs/ie/8/ie8-cc-seen-by-ie6.htm
Plus it does not wreck the version vectors as IE8b1 did.
I find that Bruno has found a hack.
http://www.brunildo.org/test/csshacks.html
html:first-child selector [attr|=a-b] { property: value; }
Playing around with this, we can have.
http://css-class.com/test/bugs/ie/8/ie8b2-hack.htm
html:first-child p { property: value; }
This isn't even with a XML prolog.

[css-d] Trying to control floats on page
I'm having trouble getting elements on my page to display correctly. http://www.ukcrugby.co.uk/test/index.html The navigation bar is floated to the left, as is the sponsor column underneath it. I have added a clear:left to the sponsor ID as without it it positioned itself to the right of the navigation bar. When I tried to add an image and float it to the right of the page, initially it appeared to the right halfway down the page. After trying to work out the solution myself I added overflow:auto to the main ID, this has now moved the images to their correct position on the page, but created a large empty column in the middle of the page The navigation bar and the sponsor column are controlled via an external style sheet, whereas the images in the main section are controlled from within an internal style sheet. Any assistance on how to get my page looking as it should would be most welcome.

Re: [css-d] Trying to control floats on page
Hi Reg,
in this style:
#main {
margin-left:220px;
margin-right:10px;
overflow:auto;
}
you have a margin-left:220px;
change it to margin-left:10px;
like so:
#main {
margin-left:10px;
margin-right:10px;
overflow:auto;
}
And your problem should be fixed.
Thank You,

[css-d] I must be fundementally misunderstanding something.
I have an application (dynamic web page) that styles perfectly with a
whole range of css linked in via an external web sheet with a link
tag in the header.
I am wanting to add a calendar picker which I have written to this web
page - so as stage one I added the link to the css file for this picker
in the page header. This file consists (almost) of css declarations of
the form div.picker something )for example as below
div.picker * {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
[the parts that do not have a div.picker in them refer to specific
classes related to the calendar other than the picker]
YET. When I place a link to this file ahead of the main style sheet, the
page stops being styled completely - its almost as if the second style
sheet is ignored.
If I move the link to this stylesheet until after the main one the page
display works fine.
I am aware of the rules regarding which style sheet wins out normally -
but using firebug in firefox to examine the styles supposidely applying
to any given element - is as though the main stylesheet just does not
exist.
I have generated static versions of two versions of the page [may have
missed with the menu - but ignore that ]with the CSS style sheets
swapped over

Ingo Chao wrote: You are declaring two stylesheets as preferred (so the first one wins ?) The first one indeed wins by HTML specifications. The specs are somewhat obscure, but the idea is that at most one style sheet can be preferred, and you make a style sheet preferred by using rel=stylesheet and a title=... attribute (with any value), and if you have several such link elements, all but the first one are ignored. This is insane if you ask me, and even if you don't, but the practical conclusion is that you should normally not use title=... attribute in link elements for stylesheets, _unless_ you want to use alternate style sheets (with rel=alternate stylesheet). When you remove those attributes, all the link elements with rel=stylesheet will be used. (This has nothing to do with the cascade, except that it affects the issue which stylesheets will participate in the cascade at all.)

[css-d] [IE6] position:relative makes text overflow browser window
This is a very simple but maddening bug -- so simple that I can't understand why I can't find any reference to it anywhere. I have a very simple document with one div inside body. The div has position:relative and top:125px. IE6 apparently deals with this by sliding the whole div down 125 pixels but keeping the height of body constant. If all the text fits inside the browser window, there is no problem, but when I have a lot of text inside the div, the bottom 125 pixels actually extend below body, and cannot be reached by the scrollbar! I can't find anything to make the browser window fully enclose the div. I can add 125px of padding to the bottom, but that breaks on those occasions when the div actually fits inside the browser window. Plus it messes up my rounded corners (not included in the test case). Test case is at http://pigweb.net/test.html. Thanks for any suggestions.

Relative offset makes #wrapper extend below body in all browsers, but of course only out of reach in IE6. Something similar happened in other browsers too a few years ago, IIRC.

I can add 125px of padding to the bottom, but that breaks on those occasions when the div actually fits inside the browser window. http://pigweb.net/test.html Adding a 125px padding to the bottom of html doesn't seem to have any negative effects - in any browser, regardless of amount of content. Your test-page triggers quirks mode in IE6 so body stretches to htmls height (or the other way round), but in standard mode IE6 will imitate real browsers and let the #wrapper extend below body and still be within reach.

[css-d] IE8b2 missing content bug with list item
Hello all All this missing content that I have noticed all happens when content are in at least unordered list. Another page. http://css-class.com/test/demos/popup-gallery1.htm The second gallery will not render all the images. Refreshing over and over shows images there and then not there. I have seen missing content here. http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/MSIE8Bugs/LinksWithDisplayBlock2.html Refreshing this page or browsing back to this page shows all list items.

Re: [css-d] positioning problems (IE and Opera)
Thank you Dmitry Demeshkin and Ingo Chao.
So, here's the problems and solutions again:
In IE 6 and 7:
#main-image not positioned right
Solution:
#additional-content {position:relative; width:450px; }
#home #main-image {position: absolute; top:0; left:0;}
divs pushed down
Solution: declared .prepend-1, .prepend-2, .prepend-3 {padding-left:
0;} in my ie.css
one of the texts pushed down in the gallery
Solution: removed class=span-2
In Opera (and Safari):
Logo is not position correctly
Solution: #branding a {display: block;}
Gallery's stage positioned too much to the left instead of right:
Solution:
I couldn't use display: block; which was the solution for the first
problem, so instead I declared div.inner {width: 100%;}
and to avoid width and paddings in the same rule, I redefined the
padding on the child elements
Last Problem: Navigation rounded corners.
Solution: added color to the background rule.
So in my case it was: background: white url(../img/rounded-left.gif)
no-repeat left bottom;
But I still have 2 last problems in IE -- if anyone has a minute to
have a minute to have a look:
The logo is appearing behind the main image on the home page -- even
though it has higher z-index
and on the gallery page, the stage images line up good when the page
loads -- but if you leave the page on for a little while, the top
background image appears and continues below the stage.

Thanks once again,
Elle
