Re: [css-d] CSS, XML, HTML, valid or bogus was( column help)
Alan Gresley wrote: One of the most bazaar test I have done. I even invented my own elements, selectors and one attribute. http://css-class.com/test/xml/unicode.xml Complicated tests easily lead to complication and frustration, though they can be useful and interesting too. Typically, after a failure, the test needs to be split into parts until each problem can be isolated. The CSS validator just throws my CSS completely It seems that any non-Ascii letter in an identifier makes the W3C CSS Validator report an error and discard the rest of the style sheet. I have just reported this bug in the www-validator-css mailing list. This seemed to be the best approach. and the HTML validator demands to have a Doctype to see if the document is valid. By the old definition, a document type definition is required for markup validation, as validation means checking against a DTD. By some code sniffing, the HTML validator considers it to be invalid XHTML 1.0 Transitional. It's not really sniffing. It just defaults to XHTML 1.0 Transitional once it has seen that you serve it as application/xhtml+xml and it has no doctype. And the validation naturally fails, because the markup is not XHTML. To use the validator on a document with your own tags, you need to write your own DTD for it. IE9 shows the correct source code. Both Firefox and Opera rearrange of the source code where it has RTL script and Safari changes the glyphs all over. I'm not quite sure what you mean, but then again, Hebrew and Arabic are mostly Greek to me. Anyway, the display of source code depends on the browser and on the program used as source code viewer (this can often be set in the browser settings). No requirements are imposed on it in any specification I know of, so it's a matter of practical judgement. Generally, such programs can be very simple (like Notepad), and I would not be surprised if some of them failed to apply Unicode directionality rules properly, to render Arabic letters using proper contextual forms, etc. Yucca __ 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] help centering items
Chetan, thanks for your interest, but you're getting hung up on the word block. I explained that block is a term in layout design which means a group of words. If you're interested in the word's history and publishing applications please email me off list. What I'm trying to accomplish is: elephant and h5 to the left join (which should appear as a short-width button) to the right both elements centered to the page. I will try the couple of solutions that were posted already and see how they work.

The solution to that would depend on what style you wish to apply. You have to be more clear.

(Problem 1) I want both blocks to be centered on the page.
On a different page http://bit.ly/kp21jM on the site I accomplished
part of what I want. The two blocks of copy are now side by side:
(Block #1: Everyone is welcome and elly)
(Block #2: Join and Twitter box)
Next, can I
* Get Block #2 to align to middle of Block #1?
* Get both blocks to sit in the center of my page?
FOLLOWING IS FIXED - THANK YOU!
2 At http://bit.ly/jwgrff (home page, same site)
get the picture to float centered in the middle of the page
David Huckleby and Alex Mitchell suggested this fix:
.leftcopytwothree {
text-align: center;
It didn't work, but using the idea of controlling the centering with
a text-align statement, I wrapped the photo in a centered p and
that works fine. Thanks guys!

[css-d] display:inline-block Rendering Differences
While experimenting with display:inline-block, I was surprised to find differences in rendering by three current browsers, viz. Chrome 11, Firefox 4 and Opera 11.10. Internet Explorer 8 and Safari's rendering is the same as Chrome 11. Here's the page: http://roughtech.com/t/centering_multi.html What's going on?

Here's the page: http://roughtech.com/t/centering_multi.html What differences do you see or think to see ? Your copy of Chrome uses a different font than your copy of Firefox. The text in the first box wraps in Firefox but not in Chrome due to this. As a consequence, the second and third box move up/down. That is expected. And note this: The baseline of an 'inline-block' is the baseline of its last line box in the normal flow, unless it has either no in-flow line boxes or if its 'overflow' property has a computed value other than 'visible', in which case the baseline is the bottom margin edge. http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visudet.html#propdef-vertical-align Philippe -- Philippe Wittenbergh http://l-c-n.com/ __ 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] display:inline-block Rendering Differences
I fixed the problems with that first test, I have specified the font size and font family: http://roughtech.com/t/centering_multi1.html Opera 11 still renders the page differently from other browsers.
