Re: [css-d] Strange lack of hover effect on BOTH IE6 and IE7
Phil Matt wrote: In IE, NOTHING happens when you hover over the small GIF image - which is a graphic created from a specific font. The idea is to simulate the typical text-decoration you'd see on an ordinary text link. In FF, the expected red lower border appears on hover. Here's the code snippet: [snip] a:link img { text-decoration:none; padding:0; margin:0; border:0; } a:hover img, a:active img { border: 1px solid red; border-width: 0 0 3px 0; padding:0; margin:0; } [snip] Your example works on IE7 here. In IE6 you'll need a trigger. IE6 will not show any hover effects on children of the a element, if the a element itself does not have any hover effect. Try a hover effect on the link that won't be noticeable, such as 'background-position:left top'. The default is 'center', so 'left top' is a change, while it won't affect anything on the page since you didn't have a background set anyway. -- Els __ 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/

Re: [css-d] Layout still broken, new problems
hi kimi, IE6 e.g. does not recognize min-... (min-width). I think you designed on a fixed layout - so you can use simply width:780px in your body thats the first.

Re: [css-d] input type=image active area shift
Hey there! Tested IE6 and you are correct it works correctly. In FF3 I've noticed the #footer is overlapping the image buttons which prevents them for being clicked. Maybe its worth removing the float:right from the footer?

[css-d] Extra spcae between columns in IE6
Hi all, I have a baffling problem with an unwanted space between columns in a three-column layout. I have made an example page here: http://www.tellura.co.uk/ruberyowen/index.htm I have 3 div elements, called navcolumn, content and sidebar. They are all floated left and I have defined the width. However, I have clearly done something wrong because the calculated widths throw column 3 down below the other 2. As a result, I have defined the width of the content div as much lower than it should be. IE6 respects that width but leaves a big gap at the right (if I float sidebar right then the gap is between content and sidebar). Safari and Firefox push the width out to fill all of the space. The table below shows the numbers: navcolumn content sidebar total calc width 258 405 287 950 set width in css 258 380 275 913 Browser measured width: Safari 259 411 276 946 FF 259 411 276 946 IE6 257 379 274 910 My question is, what am I missing in getting these three columns to float properly next to each other and use the space properly? The css is here: http://localhost/ruberyowen/css/styles.css The xhtml is here: http://localhost/ruberyowen/index.htm Anyway, any guidance would be appreciated.

[css-d] Styling fieldset legends
I have this basic code, with these basic styles. (sorry can't link the actual example, because it's a log-in only site.) formfield legendIs the sky blue?/legend input id=skyy name=sky type=radio/label for=skyyYes/label input id=skyn name=sky type=radio/label for=skynNo/label /formfield formfield { border: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; } legend { padding: 0; } If you plug this basic example into a browser, you'll see that the legend text has a different baseline than the label text (like it's superscripted or something). I'm trying to get the legend text to drop down to the same baseline as the label text. But I have no idea how. Firebug isn't giving me any clues as to the default style that makes it hang out up there anyway. So I'm not sure what to set.

Firebug isn't giving me any clues as to the default style that makes it hang out up there anyway. So I'm not sure what to set. Does anyone have any experience with this? Legends are buggy to style in nearly all browsers. By default, they tend to sit vertically centered on the border of the fieldset element. Many styles simply won't work on the legend tag. For some real fun, try figuring out how to add x-browser-safe word wrapping to a long legend. The best advice I've seen is to replace the legend with a header tag and that tends to be the solution I employ as well.
