Re: [css-d] A CSS calendar with an unordered list
David, I have discovered problems in IE 7 that do not appear in IE 8 compatibility mode, Compatibility mode is a weird best-of-both-worlds, neither-man-nor-beast setup — I wouldn't bother catering for it and certainly wouldn't use it to emulate IE7 behaviour. Hit F12 to get IE8's developer tools [1]: browser mode is the second from leftermost menu entry. To all intents and purposes, rendering, script handling etc are identical to IE7.

Hmm. Not my experience at all. I have discovered problems in IE 7 that do not appear in IE 8 compatibility mode, and vice versa. Page zoom in particular behaves very differently in some constructs. Sadly, I have not kept a record of when this happened... :( Apologies for interrupting this thread. -- Cordially, David __ css-discuss [css-d@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/ __ css-discuss [css-d@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/

[css-d] spacing and float problem
Hello all, I have a fluid layout and I don't like how the elements wrap on the homepage. You will notice that the middle two boxes drop to a lower line on small screens. I would like this to happen at resolutions lower than 1280x1024. It seems that my 4% margins are making the boxes wrap at about 1380px. I have been trying to add 50px to the left and right margins in various places to make the page look right (with no wrap) at 1280x1024, but have had on luck. Any suggestions on how I can easily achieve this goal?

This site is pretty useful. Beyond the table layout detailing full/limited/no support, most of the specific pages have examples so you can see for yourself. It won't check your page for you, but if you generally know what you are using a quick scan through the table can give you an idea of where your problems might lie. http://www.quirksmode.org/css/contents.html -Rich __ css-discuss [css-d@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] spacing and float problem
[...] Any suggestions on how I can easily achieve this goal? Site Link: http://atcofa.sfasu.edu No easy way I'm afraid, other than to play with element widths and margins. Doing so may lead to something like this... http://www.gunlaug.no/tos/alien/tk/tk.htm ...which may or may not work well enough for comfort at your end. • In that page fixed-width elements are shoehorned into a table, which isn't a good idea. • Stylesheets and inline-styles are competing, which makes modifications hard. • Fixed height on elements containing text certainly isn't a good idea either, as a little font-resizing in browsers will create overflow and destroy everything. Better to make up your mind if you want to use layout-tables or CSS for the entire page, and organize/style it accordingly. regards Georg __ css-discuss [css-d@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/
