Re: [css-d] Problems with Photo Gallery Reverting to Background Image After Clicked

2009-02-10 Thread mx . cssdee
Hey :)

I've had a look at the code and tested this in FF3 and it seems to work  
okay.
Clicking on an image it remains there even if I move either the horiz or  
vert scrollbars.

However, clicking anywhere on the page reverts it back to its default image  
(since the link you originally clicked is no longer 'active').
It's a very good pure CSS image gallery! I'm unsure if this can be  
prevented without the use of Javascript but I'll have a play and see what I  
can come up with.

~Mx (:

 Hi, I'm fairly new to CSS - can someone please help me understand what  
I'm doing wrong here, and help me find a solution? Thanks a million!



 Problem: After clicking a gallery thumbnail, clicking a scrollbar to  
scroll (horizontal scrollbar or vertical page scrollbar) makes the image  
revert back to the background image. Any way to stop that? I'd like the  
clicked image to stay put until another thumbnail is clicked. I guess I  
could remove the background image, but I don't want a large page  
of 'nothing-ness' while people scroll. Is there a solution? Thank you!

[css-d] IE6 haslayout solution needed

2009-02-10 Thread WEZ!
Heya All,

I seem to have run up against a IE6 haslayout bug which I can't seem 
to find a solution for (as per usual).

I have a two column layout. The right one is fixed width and floated 
right. The left one has negative margins to match the right column 
and is variable width. Now good-ol IE6 decides that something with 
haslayout (width:100% or any other method) next to a float is treated 
as though it is floated and then dropped.

I've been running through all manner of potential solutions to no 
avail. It seems this is an unsolvable problem with the layout I have 
tried to implement. I thought I would ask the crowd here before I 
take any drastic actions. I assume its actually possible to get this 
to work in IE6.

Anyway website is here:

Thanks for that help

You can try giving the left column a width: auto ?

haslayout is really annoying but quite an easy one to resolve, usual
methods are to use relative positioning or the zoom property to force
and element to have layout in ie.

zoom:1;
position: relative or absolute;
height: 1%;

ahh but this is the issue where haslayout has been triggered with a

Yes triggering haslayout is quite easy. Removing that without 
breaking layout is much more difficult.

This is the negative version of haslayout where its presense causes 
IE to render blocks incorrectly.

In response to Lourens. I'm pretty sure I've tried that in my 
seemingly endless tests but I'll give it a run through again. I'm not 
sure if the entire content cannot have any haslayout triggers which 
would be impossible due to any images  having layout innately.

 This is the negative version of haslayout where its presence causes IE to
 render blocks incorrectly.

If the problem is ie rendering block level elements could you not
trigger haslayout then, declare the element as an in-line element?
I feel I might not be understand this problem very well but I thought
I might throw this out to you anyhow, as it might help solve the
issue.

Not on my system it doesn't. Sorry David.

I did try a number of those changes to no avail.
I have IE7/8 on Vista could that be the problem?
Interestingly if I remove .nav2 a, it works fine in IE7 but, of course not
on the others. Display:block is clearly the issue and I have tried display

I have just fired up an old laptop with XP and IE7 and yes, the above works.

Now does that point us in direction?

   http://www.iyesolutions.co.uk/templates/db-test/IE7-menutest.html
   with CSS
   included.
  
   The white-space between each li is taken up space.
   options:
   1. remove the white-space : /lilixxx/lilixxx/li
   or
   2. li {float:left; clear:left}
   or ...
  
  
  
   Neither option makes any difference. Or am I missing something?

  http://www.chelseacreekstudio.com/ca/cssd/ian.htm
 
Ok folks, it would appear it has to do with the IE8 beta that is on my
system that is supposed to be emulating IE7 and clearly isn't.

Now the following changes seem to make it work - no idea why.

Phillipe's changes plus following changes to David's conditional.
!--[if IE 8]
   style type=text/css
   li a {display:inline-block;}
   /*li a {display:block;}*/
   .nav2  a {display:inline;}
/style
 ![endif]--

Defies logic.

But presumably the changes to the li rule make it work in IE7 but need the
addition of conditional for IE8.

I apologise if I have sent you chaps up the wrong path and thanks for all
your help.

Ian

Wrong approach.

1. If you're testing IE 8 beta, you should upgrade to IE 8 rc1 - a  
world of differences.
2. I have similar lists as yours on one of my sites, and IE8 [1]  
handles them perfectly fine, just like Gecko/WebKit/Opera. I haven't  
had time to test what it does in 'IE 7 emulation mode'.
3. What you need is 'fix' IE 7/6 in a transparent way (invisible to  
modern browsers). Don't hack living browsers, it will hurt you in the  
short, medium and long term.

[1] the one that comes with the Windows7 beta demo, running in a VM.

Ok I have installed new IE8 and everything is working fine now (apart from
IE's usually very slow loading).
Have taken conditional out altogether and both IE8 and IE7 work great.

Thanks again for all help.

I confess I had delayed installing IE8 as hadn't been at all impressed with
the Beta version.
Done now..

Re: [css-d] IE6 haslayout solution needed

2009-02-10 Thread WEZ!
Wow you guys rock. I've worked off Georg's example but I think David 
had the same idea. Is there a place on teh web you would recommend 
looking to find solutions to css layouts in IE? I've read through the 
'on having layout' numerous times but ever situation always seem 
different enough never to know a solid solution. Not to mention the 
variety of varied bugs.

I feel every time I start a new layout I invariable get to the point 
where I ask  for some IE help. Sigh.

Thanks again people the help is awesome.

Wesley Lamont


I think you want IE to behave like for this reworked example of your page...

http://www.gunlaug.no/tos/alien/wez/test_09_0210.html



Reverse engineering works best in such cases - make standard compliant
browsers simulate IE6/7 behavior, as described here...

http://www.gunlaug.no/contents/wd_example_01_02.html


In practice for your page, you simply replace existing styles for
#leftcontentcolumn with the following...

#leftcontentcolumn {
overflow: hidden;
background : #aaa url(images/valid-xhtml10.png) no-repeat scroll top;
}

* html #leftcontentcolumn {
overflow: visible;
height: 1%
}

...and IE6 and the others will line up those columns just fine, and in
identical-looking ways.

I assume its actually possible to get this to work in IE6.

The expression used (on #layout) is for quirks mode only, and makes IE6
in standard mode freeze, or rather go into an endless loop, at end-points.

Either force IE6 into quirks mode like I have done in the example page,
or choose one of the mode independent expressions described here...

http://www.gunlaug.no/contents/wd_additions_14.html

   Georg

These documents on PIE may help...
http://www.positioniseverything.net/ie-primer.html
http://www.positioniseverything.net/explorer.html

 I've read through the 'on having layout' numerous times but ever 
 situation always seem different enough never to know a solid 
 solution.

The keys to the solid solutions are buried deep in the old and pretty
buggy Trident engine - better left to the IE-team, while articles
written by web developers only extract, dissect, look at and correct for
bits and pieces as they appear buggy on screens, and only at levels and
depths the various web developers are/feel comfortable on - not very
deep or solid beyond the case at hand for the most part.

Wouldn't do much good if someone who can rip the Trident engine apart
tried to write articles about how to deal with it in a broad sense, as
these articles would end up being very long, tedious and for the most
part pretty incomprehensible for the average web developer - in short: a
complete waste of time for all parties.


The 'hasLayout' article is actually quite deep and relatively solid in
its core, but at times we simply had to leave out the long passages that
might have been useful in explaining some obscure details to a few
developers. Otherwise we would have ended up with an article that were
maybe 10-20 times as long and which nobody would bother to read, and
that really would have been a waste of time and effort.

We tried to compensate by linking to whatever we could find, or found it
necessary to create, on other sites/documents, but something will always
be missing or out of sync by such an approach.


 I feel every time I start a new layout I invariable get to the point 
 where I ask  for some IE help. Sigh.

No big deal. Make notes every time, so maybe you'll get a better
understanding of how old IE works - before it's gone...
http://www.robertnyman.com/2009/02/09/stop-developing-for-internet-explorer-6/
You'll still have a few years to catch up on it :-)

In time you may become confident enough to apply a browser agnostic
approach to web design...
http://www.gunlaug.no/contents/wd_additions_48.html
...and just beat the most buggy browsers (IE6 and 7 for the time being)
into submission when they act up.

Experience is the key factor, so just keep on practicing.

[css-d] importing text / html using CSS

2009-02-10 Thread Dr Grover B Proctor Jr
From a relative beginning in CSS (though an experienced HTML-er): Is there a
way using CSS to import the contents of a text file (and/or an .HTML file)
into a web page? I'm trying to boilerplate the same content on several
pages, and if each could call on a single file, I could update all files by
only updating the one external file. Thanks.

Re: [css-d] Layout help in IE

2009-02-10 Thread Jonathon Suggs
Thanks so much!

I ended up pretty much doing a pseudo re-write and I loosely based it off
the yui grid layout
http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/grids/

As far as I can tell it is now working in (most) all browsers.

If anyone sees any glaring mistakes, please let me know.  (css) design is
not my strongest suit and I'm still focusing on features, so any pointers
would be welcome.  Eventually I'll probably contract out for a more
professional design, but that will be once I get the base featureset a
little further along.

 The addition of...

 You have a 'min-width' on #main that acts as a 'hasLayout' trigger in
 IE7 and causes #main to drop on narrow windows. If you don't want that
 drop you should remove 'min-width' from that element.

The most important is in the Content-area, where IE 6.x are placing
the text at about the top of the second picture, (Some float-bug ?)
and FF2.x are placing the text at the top of the first picture.

The second is in the header.
Where there are some differences between FF2.x and IE6.x in measuring

 I was hoping someone would know what is going wrong with IE6, all other
 browsers show it perfectly, I'm currently on digest mode FYI

Can't debug IE6 based on styles only.
CSS bugs almost always pop up their heads because of the context a 
styled element is in, so we have to see the entire markup/CSS to figure 
out what's bugging IE6 in your case.

Link please.

[css-d] paragraph margins next to a float

2009-02-10 Thread Fractal Moonshine
My first CSS experiment, after many years of HTML 3.2:

http://dougkh.nfshost.com/terry/index.html

What's the best way to give the paragraph in the middle of the right side of 
the page a margin? When I add a margin, padding, or a percentage width to #main 
p { }, all the space is on the right side of the wrapper. #wrapper, the 
grandparent of #main, has a 30px margin and 10px padding all around. I'm 
surprised #main didn't inherit those values.
