Why is the font-size declared on html,body set at 14% less than default?

Re: [css-d] spacing problem in IE
Thank you for the comments. I've been having trouble aligning the fonts in the header and I haven't been able to figure out how to make it work right. I want the phone numbers to be aligned to the bottom right of the contain they're in, but nothing I do seems to work consistently. I also know I should not combine a table for the header with the rest of the layout, but getting the pieces to stay tightly together - especially on the home page of the site which has a flash animation - has been simply beyond me. Everything I tried failed, but I know for sure that a table will keep the header pieces on the same line. I've really run way way way over budget on this job and am just trying to get it working reasonably.

[css-d] problem with IE7, suckerfish and flash video
I'm running into a real poser and hopefully someone can help me out. I'm building a site using Son of Suckerfish dropdowns for the main navigation. One one page, I have a Flash video imbedded at the top of the content area where the dropdowns overlap. I added wmode=transparent to get the dropdowns from hiding behind the video, but now have run into a strange problem with IE7. The page initally displays fine, but when I hover over a nav item to activate a dropdown, IE7 hides the video and all content below (everything within the same div from the video to the end). I haven't the first clue what's going on. Anyone run into this before, and/or have an idea of how to get IE7 to behave?

In creating a very simple html page to demonstrate the problem, I realized that the width set at 100% does work correctly in my very small example. So, the issue must be with other html on the page where I am using the scrolling table. If it looks like the issue I am experiencing involves CSS and is on topic for this maling list, I'll post more information. But right now I'm leading to something html related, maybe a table issue. Thank you for confirming that the the scroll on a width of 100% does work the way I had expected. -- Jim Albert __ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] 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/

Or start with unfloating the second float, subcontainer. Check in IE6, too.

Probably an error.
BTW, Google search is throwing a slew of markup errors.
I was trying to comment this out so I could validate. Once commented out I was
going to work on this horiable code.

Do you have a URL for a test case ?

Would it not be much easier to have a single button as each links
background?
i.e.
ul
li class=btna href=foo.phpFoo link/a/li
li class=btna href=bar.phpBar link/a/li
/ul
CSS:
.btn {
display: block;
width : 200px;
height : 30px;
margin: 5px 0px 0px 0px;
background: url('button.png');
}
This way you can play around with the margins to get them spaced perfectly.

Maybe?
You got the idea right. What I did was made some images of buttons and
positioning the text on them. look here. http://www.dmcentral.net/eweb
If I have to make a bunch of CSS tags, I'll just move the buttons to fit the
default, but that isn't something I want to do because I can't get the
buttons
to look good if they are closer together.

thanks,
It would yield four blocks flush left stacked vertically (and would be
invalid html unless you change the id to a class).
You could use multiple classes to move the individual blocks.
Something like this (off the top of my head and not tested)
css
p {margin: 0;}
.text {border: 1px solid red;}
.c1 {margin: 0 0 0 20px;}
.c2 {margin: 20px 0 0 100px;}
.c3 {margin: 100 px 0 0 50px;}
.c4 {margin: 30px 0 0 75px;}
html
div class=text c1pone/p/div
div class=text c2ptwo/p/div
div class=text c3pthree/p/div
div class=text c4pfour/p/div
As always a clickable link to your attempt or and image that shows
whatever it is you are trying to do will get you better answers...

Am I thinking correctly? No, I'm afraid your thinking is flawed for positioning bits of text on top of a fixed background (image). For the left column only: if you want to use a fixed background for your text - links or whatever, this is the most steady method... http://www.gunlaug.no/tos/alien/dmg/test_09_0130.html http://www.gunlaug.no/tos/alien/dmg/test_09_0130_files/styles00.css ...where individual paragraphs are absolute positioned. Those paragraphs will adjust vertically for font resizing, but long lines will overflow horizontally pretty quickly. If you want links instead, just replace the ps with as. Sidenote: The entire http://www.dmcentral.net/eweb/ shows that you're relying on what you see for browser-defaults at your end - your layout has no flexibility. Not a good idea since that means your layout is doomed to fail... http://www.gunlaug.no/contents/wd_additions_37.html ...and I do not think you want that :-) You're also declaring a number of properties/values back to their default-values. Although there's no harm in doing so, you get a lot of unnecessary declarations in there. regards Georg -- http://www.gunlaug.no __ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] 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/
