 I forgot to mention about the float drop in IE6 due to it's quirky handling
 of percentages. The fix is changing the width.

 .subcolumns {
  width: 99%; /* Change to keep IE6 happy */
  overflow:hidden;
  }

Thanks to all.

As mentioned earlier adding : height: 1% to #center solved the problem.
When I added it directly to default.css. Instead of making a CC.

Adding : margin-top: 1em to #content, might solve the problem with the sidebar.

This wasn't nescessary to adjust, ( I think ). But always nice to know.

Adding this last solution solved the problem, Almost.

Maybe fidling with the margin-top, will solve the differences in
height, between sidebar and content. In IE6 ?

HI
Thanks for this, although the layout of the gallery isn't the problem,  
Im using tables for another purpose.
What I really wanted to know was,
Is there a way to rollover an image and have text elsewhere on the  
page apply a hover attribute.
for example I mouse over an image on the page and the text below is  
highlighted.
Thanks very much,

Hello,
I am rebuilding a very basic image gallery, (and apologies there is a  
table in it)
But that was not my problem.(yes, it should be)
But...
I was wondering if there was a way using css to create what used to be  
added using javascript and images.
I would like to have an image file with text underneath, and when the  
image is moused over, the text below highlights as well as a border  
being created around the image. I used to use swap image restore and  
attach the behaviour to the text image file.
Is there are way to do this with css?
I hope this makes sense.
thanks very much in advance,
here is a link to a test page,

An image, no...

 for example I mouse over an image on the page and the text below is 
 highlighted.

...but it can be simulated visually by placing both image and a
text-carrying element in a parent-element in the markup - a link for
instance, and reposition the text-carrying element so it appears outside
that parent-element. The text can then appear anywhere on a page,
depending on how one define positioning-relationship.

Such methods are widely used to create CSS pop-ups of all kinds, but
it'll work just as well for stable-positioned elements that change
visually when one hovers over their parent-element.

Try the 1 link example (third one) on this test-page...

 rightcontent:

 leftcontent:

 120% plus 4px is also more than 100%.
 
 BTW, because of position:fixed, the side columns won't scroll.
 Probably what you intended, but it means that people on the new fancy
 smaller screens won't see the links that are below their screen.

Thanks for that. I obviously expected the client area or canvas or whatever 
it's currently called, to expand to include those borders (with a vertical 
scroll-bar). As the border is only temporary, it's not really a problem.

Yes, it wouldn't make much sense to have the menu scroll off screen or to have 
the backgound image run away. Until now, we have kept them in place by 
specifying bgProperties=fixed on the body tag, which is a non-standard 
attribute. I'm pleased not to need it in the current version.

I have no idea how to accommodate those with minute screens. My Blackberry has 
a 5.0 x 4.7 cm screen and a web browser. I have found no use for it. Perhaps 
for displaying a list of stock quotations. But what else? Even if I were able 
to scroll the menu and see all entries, I wouldn't know how to select anything 
with no cursor. I'm afraid I'll have to be fresh enough, or perhaps unpleasant 
enough, to say that the site is not compatible with toy screens.

Thanks for your help.  Bruce

We differ in opinion there. It does makes sense to have the menu scroll with 
the rest of the page, so that every part of it can be accessed.

 I have no idea how to accommodate those with minute screens.

Very simple: let everything scroll naturally.

 My Blackberry has a 5.0 x 4.7 cm screen and a web browser. I have
 found no use for it. Perhaps for displaying a list of stock
 quotations. But what else? Even if I were able to scroll the menu
 and see all entries, I wouldn't know how to select anything with no
 cursor. 

That's just you though ;-)
I use a Nokia N73, with a 2x3 cm screen, and I surf the web all the time. There 
is a cursor, and you can use it to click on things.
Before this, I had an older phone, without cursor, but that one just 
highlighted link after link, so I could still surf the web and follow links. 
I'm sure your Blackberry is good enough to surf the web if you tried.

 I'm afraid I'll have to be fresh enough, or perhaps
 unpleasant enough, to say that the site is not compatible with toy
 screens.

Your prerogative, but toy screens are on the rise - 640x480 and 800x600 are 
quite common. EEE pc and similar laptops don't really have minute screens. Oh, 
and there is of course the iPhone. Also 640 x 480 I think?

[css-d] Options in a select

2009-03-07 Thread trevor bayliss

Hi all, 
I have a select box that is 150px but the options are larger than that. For 
design purposes I need to keep the size as 150px but the options I need to be 
bigger. How can I do that? Thank you

How about:

and doing the CSS hover to point at X?
