The rule are fairly simple: check if the character exists in the first listed 
font, if not, skip to the next one, etc. If no fonts in the list contain the 
requested character, check for 'a' font-family available on the user system  
(and that is one reason to always specify a generic font-family).

Note that I've seen IE 6 and 7 sometimes not play by those rules on XP.

Arial Unicode MS is good suggestion (not always available on win XP, iirc; and 
not installed on OS X 10.4).  Adding DejaVu Sans (or DejaVu Serif) will insure 
wide coverage, including Linux (the font is installed by default on most Linux 
distros).

[css-d] [test]: CSS and the HTML5 video element

2011-01-15 Thread Gabriele Romanato 

Hi.
It took a little bit to find a good converter from FLV to OGV, but  
finally I did it!

The video is 27 mb in size, so you have to be a little bit patient :-)
Results are encouraging, especially for future CSS3 enhancements:

http://onwebdev.blogspot.com/2011/01/css-and-html5-video-element.html

note: also floating works, just as for the  element. it seems  
that supporting browsers have cloned their default display role from  
 to . cascade works correctly. borders, margin etc.  
too. dimensions either.


Tested in Chrome(latest), Safari(latest), Firefox(latest, i.e. 4 beta  
latest), Opera(latest).
Safari has some problems loading the video. I think it expects ogg  
instead of ogv or something :-)


again, hope that helps HTH :-)

I've no idea on which OS you managed to have that video loading in all those 
browsers. On OS X 10.6, it partly (*) worked in Chrome 10 dev channel and 
nothing else (Safari 5 and webkit nightly, Gecko 1.9.2 and 2.0b- fx nightly)

(*) very slow to load (slower than expected for the given file size), blocky 
display, stuttering.

Seamonkey 2.0.11 under Win/XP PRO;SP3

Partially rotated rounded-cornered square containing the

As regards the possible delay while 27Mb delivers itself,
would it not be possible to use a streaming protocol, as in (say)

src="rtsp://example.org/streaming/video.ogv/"

rather than

src="video.ogv"

as written ?

[css-d] Overriding styles

2011-01-15 Thread Tim Climis 
I ran into an interesting application of CSS yesterday, that, while not useful 
for most people, might be in the "fun to know" category for others.

I write software that interfaces with a government website through an 
embedded browser, and we're working on a UI overhaul.  Unfortunately for us, 
the government site is ugly as sin, but someone had the idea of substituting 
our own stylesheet to try and give it a make-over.

So I set to doing that, but got a bit discouraged when I looked at the source 
and saw things like:



But then I noticed that in Firebug, this was translated into CSS as 

td[valign="top"] {
  vertical-align: top;
}

td[bgcolor="#445588"] {
  background-color: #458;
}

So I put the following rule in the stylesheet:
[bgcolor] {background-color: transparent}

and it worked!  All the HTML elements with bgcolor were reset!

So, apparently, it's possible, using CSS, to override element styles not set 
using CSS.  I can't really think of any common usages for this, but it might 
be handy some time if you need to redo a site and don't have control over 
the HTML source.

A clickable link to the page in question would provide us place to start to 
provide the help you seek.


It would also be helpful to know in what browsers you're trying to view the 
page and and what Operating systems. (ie win xp pro etc)


As an aside, it's also helpful to provide a "subject" in the subject line. 
(ie. "page doesn't work in some browsers")  It helps keep the archives 
straight.

[css-d] multi-line text vertical align

2011-01-15 Thread 李硕 
Hello,

I've made a page, but I don't know how
to make the top left multi-line text become
vertical middle.
I want to change the content of the text
later, so I want it to be vertical middle by
itself.

The page:

http://www.ffb-all.com/my-test/1.html

I've tried

#site-description {
  display: table-cell;
  float: left;
  font-size: 24px;
  line-height: 36px;
  vertical-align: middle;
  width: 400px;
}

and the

#branding has height: 300px;

but it doesn't work.


Thanks!

Re: [css-d] multi-line text vertical align

2011-01-15 Thread John D 

This CSS works:

#test {
border: 5px  double #eee;
display: table-cell;
background-color: #FF;
height: 300px;
width: 400px;
margin: 0 auto;
font-size: 24px;
line-height: 36px;
vertical-align: middle;
text-align: center;
}

I have ignored branding and instead used only one DIV as follows:

The file is attached for you to test it out.  I am not sure if you can get it

I know the reason now, the vertical-align attribute
cannot be put together with float attribute.

Not really the issue. If you float an element, its display will be 'block' and 
not 'table-cell'.
