[css-d] Page doesn't hold up on zooming text
Good afternoon list, Following up on my post footer gets pushed to the left on page zoom i tried another approach which fairly behaves the way i want. But i'm still struggling with some problems: [1] Moz, FF, IE (6 7): page falls apart on zoom text. IE only seems to have a problem with the left nav menu when switching to view --- largest. [2] In Moz, when zooming to 33%, the text underneath the footer nav, starts breaking out of the footer.

Does anybody perhaps know of a way to display a form inline next to a link? I would use 'display: inline' or use a 'span' instead of a div, but you have three nested div's so I don't know. You could position the outside 'div' with 'style.left' and 'style.top'.

Re: [css-d] Opinions on Yahoo CSS grid builder
IMO, the resulting YUI grid constructions are less practical than nested-table constructions.

Well, yes, if I remove the padding, it shows up in SeaMonkey, but I need

And I also checked the page on IE, it works just fine as I expect it to
work.
The issue I'm having is with SeaMonkey, so I suspect it is also showing
with FireFox 2
Anyone has any idea?
Answering myself here, I found the solution. The style was this :
div.miniadmin-content {
font-size : .9em;
max-height : 80px;
overflow : auto;
}
I simply added a width statement to get this :
div.miniadmin-content {
font-size : .9em;
max-height : 80px;
width: 100%;
overflow : auto;
}
And now the display is the same in IE and SeaMonkey.

[css-d] Background image not centered in IE7
Page: http://tr.im/v0 CSS: http://tr.im/v1 IE7, on this page only, aligns the background image with the left edge of the browser. You have to reduce the window size to see it, as I made some changes to make it not look so awful. I am fairly sure this has to do with the image that is floated and some box model interpretation, but I am having a hard time figuring it out or fixing it (I¹m a student and still learning this stuff). The index page uses the same CSS and the background image is properly center aligned on it, and when I ³unfloat² the image, the issue goes away on this page, so those are big clues. It¹s probably something standard to do with clearing the float or something that I¹ve missed, but I¹m just not figuring it out. Thanks in advance for any help on this! (also, the png image fix for IE isn¹t working all the way am I doing something wrong with the conditional comment/ie stylesheet? And you can ignore the styleswitcher it only works in Firefox and Opera, and is an experiment as I am just beginning a Javascript class) PS this is my FIRST question post to CSS-discuss, so be gentle! :) __ 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/
Re: [css-d] padding margin differences between Firefox 2 and 3
Nancy Johnson wrote: Thank you, the page in question isn't live so I cannot show it Nancy I am testing an updated doctype in some of my pages.

[css-d] can not highlight text in IE
Hi I am developing an tool, it has a major problem with ie See the sample page here: http://cad.auckland.ac.nz/courses/1/publish/1/ the text in the page can not be highlighted. This will become a problem for students that use IE for online studying. Google around, could not find a solution... Anyone know a holy grill solution to this problem?

Re: [css-d] Page doesn't hold up on zooming text
Good evening David,
It was foretold that on 16/09/2008 @ 14:35:43 GMT-0400 (which was
15:35:43 where I live) David Laakso would write:
snipped a bit
All browsers have difficulty with the long-words in the vertical nav
with font-scaling.
Yeah i know, just haven't figured out a solution yet banging head on table
Moz? What Moz you got? Only got Mac FF/3.0.1 and Mac SeaMonkey/1.1.11 on
this end.
Mozilla 1.7.13
html, body {
/*height: 100%;delete*/
body { /*position:absolute;width:100%; delete*/}
#wrapper{/*min-height:100%;delete*/}
I used these to get the sticky footer'...
/* use easy clearing to open the container vertically and contain it's
content in IE/6 */
#contentwrapper { border: 1px dashed teal/* for position only */;
overflow : hidden;
#contentwrapper:after {
content : '.';
display : block;
height : 0;
clear : both;
visibility : hidden;
#contentwrapper {
display : inline-block;
#contentwrapper {
display : block;
}/* end easy clearing*/
Darn, didn't even notice that the clearing method was needed.
#contentwrapper {
display : inline-block;}
For the Mac, right?
#contentwrapper {
display : block;}
Ah, resetting for IE
Doesn't #contentwrapper need zoom: 1; to get hasLayout for IE7 in
this case?
/** html #wrapper{height:100%} delete**/
Was part of my 'sticky' footer approach
Also needed:
#signature {
/* margin-top: 3em; margin-left: -35px; delete*/
margin : 3em auto 0 auto; width: 400px; /*add to keep this stuff
from breaking the container with font-scalling*/
Of course
I'll implement the changes 2morrow...
TIA

Re: [css-d] Safari on Windows has a nifty CSS debugger
Jack: Thanks for these tips. Firefox has its own DOM interpreter, but also has the Firebug extension, which will allow you to inspect/edit the DOM and stylesheets while viewing the page. I have used the DOM inspector but Firebug will not (yet) install in Firefox 3.x, although oddly enough, some of its plug-ins will! Opera has Dragonfly, I think, built in that lets you do the same. Thanks, will check it out. Google Chrome is built from Safari, and also includes helpful development tools. I can't get Chrome to install properly and *function* on Windows XP SP3. And for some weird reason it installs in my home directory, not in C:\\Program Files\, like every other app on the planet, including Google's other apps. Also, Chrome is built on a version of WebKit earlier than that in Safari, so I am afraid I will have to forego Chrome's tools. Internet Explorer has the Internet Development Toolbar which lets you inspect elements, and to see if they're being given layout. Ah, yes, the dreaded hasLayout bug.
