 Bear in mind that if you want this to work in Internet Explorer you 
 will need to include extra rules (preferably in a separate stylesheet
 included via conditional comments):
 
 a { filter: alpha(opacity=100); } a:hover { filter: 
 alpha(opacity=70); }
 

... and for IE8 that would be -

-ms-filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=70);

Cordially,
David

[css-d] Problem with menu in IE7

2009-05-13 Thread Joe Polk
I am currently working with a client on the following web site --
http://www.keystonees.com/new.

For some reason, the menu bar (home, about, services, faq and contact) do
not appear in IE7 but they appear on all other browsers.  The CSS can be
seen at http://www.keystonees.com/new/css/main.css.

Any and all help figuring this out would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in
advance!

try adding position:relative to the menu and or the header id. I am on

[css-d] Navigation list problem in Safari 3.0

2009-05-13 Thread Rod Castello
I'm using chromejs for drop-downs in Nav bar. Looks fine in Firefox, but shows 
small question-mark in box when viewed in Safari 3.1.2. Don't know if this is a 
javascript problem, css, or what. Additionally, can anyone explain why Safari 
renders the in-line list shorter than Firefox? It seems like it renders the 
font smaller. I've used a css hack to apply specific styling to Safari on 
another website, and it works, but is there something I'm missing as to why 
Safari renders the previously mentioned items differently than Firefox? Are 
there other methods to get it to behave the same.

 Here's the url to the site (in-development) 

http://rodcastello.com/pedro/index6e.html
Thanks in advance.

[css-d] Truncated columns

2009-05-13 Thread bruce . somers
Hello,

I'm certain that this is a terribly elementary question, but I have not been 
able to solve it. I'd appreciate any push in the right direction.

On the page at http://www.maireadnesbitt.com/index.html , the middle column can 
be scrolled but the left- and right-hand columns are truncated at small window 
height. How can I avoid that truncation?

There's an image missing ( /pedro/down.gif) and Safari is just  
complaining about it more than Firefox.

In the javascript is says:

dropdownindicator: 'img src=down.gif border=0 /'

You need to ensure that this image is there or change the path to  
point to its location.

It's because they are set to position: fixed. This means that they  
stay in position on the screen and don't scroll. Remove line 149 of  
the stylesheet.

Also remove line 45 (for the left hand side). By the way, the picture  
of the woman will always remain static as it is a background image on  
the body and the left hand column is absolutely positioned but has  
both 'top' and 'bottom' set. Remove 'top' rule and it will position  
itself properly to the bottom.

Neither the CSS nor the markup is valid. And validating both will not 
fix it. But you should validate the markup. And the invalid rule in the 
CSS is not needed.
Reset these declarations to read ( and 6/7/8 will cooperate):

#header { width: 900px; height: 67px; margin: 0 auto; border:1px solid 
red; position: relative;}
#menu {position: absolute; width: 445px; 
overflow:hidden;/*vertical-align: top;*/ /*float: right;*/top: 
0;right:0; padding: 0px 0 0 0; list-style: none; border:1px solid red;}

* html #menu {width: 500px;} /* 4 IE/6.0 */

 Not on padding. Your CSS is not valid (negative values on padding are
 not allowed).

 Negative values /are/ allowed on margins,
 http://www.communitymx.com/content/article.cfm?cid=b0029
 and negative values are sometime used in creating a stacking order,
 z-index, of absolute positioned elements.
 http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/zindex.html

 There are a few other instances where negative values are allowed in the
 CSS2.1, CSS3, specs. Perhaps someone else can point you to them. I am
 brain dead at the moment.

.screenwrapperB is set to position: absolute which means that it is  
taken out of the document flow and creates no vertical space.

If you remove the absolute positioning and height from .screenwrapperB  
and remove the height from #viewercontainer it should get you going in  
the right direction.

If you give .screenwrapperB 'overflow: auto' it will contain the  
floats and you will see the black background correctly.

Also - validate your CSS! There are a couple of syntax issues.

Cheers, Tim

 http://rodcastello.com/pedro/index6e.html Thanks in advance.
 

Now you have the other issues addressed, I think your menu width issue 
may be due to the way Safari tends to truncate any fractions of a 
percent for font-size based lengths (EM or %). It looks like the 
letter-spacing: 0.4em; being less than 1px is ignored by Safari, but 
applied by Firefox.

Of course, any computer not having Impact fonts installed will get 
something else entirely. So will anyone with text-size settings other 
than the most usual, or with an OS setting other than 96 DPI.

Cordially,
David
