Thanks for your help,

[css-d] two column data

2009-01-14 Thread James E. Darfler
I am working to change my web site from XHTML Transitional to XHTML Strict
which requires more css. One of my pages was working with the transitional
but gave me 130+ errors when converted. Now the layout is wrong. There
should be two columns, one with the text to the left and rows of three
photos to the right extending down the right side of the page.  I have been
trying changes for days to get it correct but I've run out of ideas. Both
the XHTHL page and the css pages validate. Is there something simple that
I'm missing? Any ideas would be appreciated.

I'm absolutely no expert in this matter, but have you tried to give
your div's some css, something like float:left and float:right?

And I've never seen divs placed in a table before, but if's validating
I've learnt something new.

Hi James,

I think the issues are with the HTML, not with the CSS. Your image table 
begins on a new row in your table, so it won't show up /next/ to the 
name list, but rather below it.

If you want to continue using tables, you might try reconfiguring your 
HTML to this sort of setup:
table
   tr
 tdnames in lt;ulgt;/td
 tdphotos in lt;tablegt;/td
   /tr
/table
-or-
table
   tr
 tdthree names in lt;ulgt;/td
 tdthree photos in lt;tablegt;/td
   /tr
!-- Later, rinse, repeat --
/table

An alternative is to put everything in a list, with the photos attached 
to each name, like the way Windows displays tiles and thumbnails. I've 
uploaded a re-working of the code here if you're curious about this sort 
of thing:
http://www.webdevelopedia.com/cssd/wact-proposed.html

Hope it helps.
Bill

FYI, and completely unrelated to the case at hand:

One can put whatever - short of the html/body elements - in a table and
make it validate. A valid confirmation only means one hasn't seriously
misspelled the words in the language or placed them in a totally
unacceptable order. The code and/or outcome don't have to make sense.

So, be careful with what you learn from other people's code - regardless
of whether it's valid or not, and check what the specs actually says
about using specific elements on their own and together. Otherwise you
may unknowingly just learn how to make dumb validators lie to you, and 
that has a tendency to backfire over time.

Not quite right for me. The names may not have a corresponding photo and the

As for keeping the tables, it's what I have been using but I would change to
a more css format if that would work better. Could you steer me in the right

Well, tables and CSS are not mutually exclusive. That is, they can be 
used together, though using them for layout is generally frowned upon by 
the CSS Overlords.

You could certainly keep your tables and style them to some extent using 
CSS. Your tables, however, are in place to supply a certain layout, in 
place of using CSS. They are failing to do that and that issue lies with 
the source. In short, because you are using tables for layout, your 
issue has to be resolved at the source level (where the tables are 
coded) and not at the style level (where CSS is introduced).

I'm not sure why you're so quick to write off the ul based solution. Why 
not use a no-photo-available graphic for actors who have't provided a 
headshot, and use a span in lieu of an anchor for actors who haven't 
provided a bio or resume? This would give you a greater separation of 
content and presentation.

That is a good idea using the ul bases solution. When I get some time I
think I'll try modifying the page to use that. In the meantime, since I'm
still trying to learn this css stuff, is there a good css solution to the
problem that you could point me to?

But could you consider changing the :hoover color to something different.

[css-d] Dont understand float drop

2009-01-14 Thread Fiona Hayward
Hello,

Ive been trying to work out why I have a float drop in IE6 (but not in IE7,
5.5, or Firefox (Windows)).

Ive spent hours scouring the code and searching online, but cant work it
out.  I seem to remember dealing with this before on another project, but I
think I just fixed with trial and error and didn't really understand how I
got it working.

I would really like to be able to understand what Ive done wrong, so I can
learn from it and avoid it in the future.

(The page in question is still in progress, so there are some unfinished
items on the page.)

http://www.fionahayward.com/visionprint/untitled2.html

Hi Fiona,

Looks like you've got something flowing out of one of your column boxes. 
This fixes it:

#left,#content,#right{overflow:hidden}

...but you may also want to target exactly what it is causing the overflow.

Hope it helps.

It did fix it, but Im really not sure why.
Maybe Ive just been looking at it for too long to see what would be flowing

Ignore that last post - I found the offending article.  It was an image that
I overlooked at the bottom of the page.

Just wondering though, why was IE6 the only browser that dropped the
float

[css-d] Random padding in firefox...

2009-01-14 Thread Jerod Venema
Hey all,

I've got a weird bug that I can't figure out. Our website,
www.frozenmountain.com, shows the behaviour. If you visit the site, check
out #header. You'll notice that it has a 1px top padding. What's bizarre is,
if you remove the padding, the spacing jumps about an extra 10px. I can't
for the life of me figure out why. It only happens in FF3 (well..only being
liberal, I've only tested in FF and IE so far).

Anyone have any ideas?

Hi Jerod--

Collapsing Margin Bug.

Try this:

/*  padding-top: 1px; -- REMOVE */

 The red arrows show what's going wrong. There is a little bit of blue
 extending down below the nav bar. It's not supposed to do that. View the
 page in FF, Opera, Safari, or Chrome to see how it's supposed to look.
   


The hasLayout trigger [1] for IE/7 (will not effect compliant 
browsers) is:
#nav {
/*height:29px; */
min-height: 29px;
}
The hasLayout trigger [1] for IE/6 is:
* html #nav {
overflow: visible;
}
I did not look at the second or the third thing you wrote about...

That didn't do it. When I added those to my CSS, it didn't affect IE7 and
made the unwanted extra blue span the entire width of the nav bar in IE6.

Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Daniel

Yes, I think you have misunderstood. I do *not* want that extra bit of blue
under the navbar. Look at the site in Firefox, and you'll see how it's
supposed to look.
Thanks,
Daniel

Delete...
#nav a, #nav strong {
position: relative;
}

...and also delete the...

* html #nav {
overflow: visible;
}

IE's bug is that elements with 'position: relative' declared on them
will overflow containers with 'overflow: hidden' declared - visibly but
without taking up space. This overflow bug is sometimes exploited as
part of the cure for IE6' auto-expansion bug, but in your case it does
no good.
