Re: [css-d] Test on OS X 10.7 Lion please

2012-01-03 Thread John
glad to help…and to be clear…it's 10.7.2, Safari 5.1.2, and initially, I tried 
in FF 5 (just did a re-install and wrongly assumed it was the latest)

tried again in FF 9.0.1, and the first two paragraphs are serif; the following 
3 are SANS serif…yes, sorry about my earlier typo.

(only the first two paragraphs are serif, for the rest you meant sans-serif I 
guess)

It appears to be fixed in Nightly builds; should work fine with Firefox 11.

really ? …… oh wait – let me test again. Indeed. WebKit nightly builds work 
fine, though, as do Chrome 16+.

Thanks for testing John.

in FF, the first two paragraphs are serif, the rest are serif.   In Safari, the 
first is serif and the second is sans, as are all the rest.

Don't know if it applies to CSS, but there are settings in web servers 
and web proxies that can have impact on whether or not a browser refresh 
gets the current page or not. In particular, some combination of MS IIS, 
the MS Proxy server, and various versions of IE makes the browser either 
never even check for an update (IE6, even when forced) or be informed 
that it already has the most current version (other IEs plus Firefox). 
It afflicts my employer's website, we still haven't gotten a good 
explanation or a fix for it that doesn't conflict with other 
server/proxy settings required for some enterprise apps we use.

url: http://dev.l-c-n.com/_temp/helveN-L.html

Do the first two paragraphs display as serif fonts on Lion (OS X 10.7) with any 
Gecko/ Firefox browser? If yes, there is a bug in Gecko.
(I assume default font preferences - 'western' should use 'serif' as a default).

The test fails (displays a serif font) on my side; I already cleared all 
font-caches.
Other browsers work correctly.

I have used a simple trick in the past which has worked for me: I
"mis-spell" the css file reference on my index.html page, upload that page
and I will get a "file not found" error message.
Then I correct the mis-spelling and re-upload the file.  It will now find
the "correct" css file and read it.

For example:
  is the
correct reference.

I mis-spell it to

And upload index.html.  This gives me an error since there is no
OLD-global.css

I then correct the mis-spelling and re-upload the file...and it is then
found and read.

[css-d] Erratic Hover Behavior in IE

2012-01-03 Thread Elli Vizcaino
Hello CSS Discuss, 


Actually Im sure it's the norm in IE but basicaly what's happening here: 
http://www.e7flux.com/clients/sof/ is that some links are hovering and some are 
not. On hover most of the links should show a border-bottom: 1px dashed w the 
appropriate hex color or the reverse. Yet IE 7/8 are not showing the hover 
state in the footer nav section nor in the header titles

It's not always possible to use valid css due to proprietary css markup such as 
-webkit, -moz, as I'm using CSS3 the HTML markup however is valid.

I'm noticing that not every browser refreshes the CSS even when using 
shift + refresh. Based on this article: 
http://css-tricks.com/update-on-css-caching/ there is a way to make sure 
the browser gets the most updated stylesheet when requesting from the 
server. However, the article isn't' clear on how to implement this, as 
in, it doesn't provide an actual code sample. Plus some seem to require 
programming. Anyone know how I can get apply this so I can my CSS is 
also updated in the browser when I make changes?

Don't think this is it, I have Chrome 16 and "predict Network actions to 
improve page load performance" checked and I've tried both shift+refresh and 
control+refresh and it still won't update to latest stylesheet and it's been 
about 2 hours since it was updated on the server. It took a couple of tries w 
shift+refresh in FF to update but Chrome won't budge. Don't get it.

I've found that the latest version of Chrome(16) is doing this. 

In Chrome, go to Preferences > Under the Hood and then look in the Privacy 
section. There's an option for "predict Network actions to improve page load 
performance". I've theorized that this might be the issue, but I'm uncertain. I 
haven't been paying close-enough attention, but I think the problem persists 
with this unchecked...

….. and I have the problem even if I'm testing a local file. I haven't 
researched the issue much because I figured it must've been me, but now that 
you've raised it, it's time for me to get on Google.

[css-d] IE 7/8 Filter for CSS3 Mulitple Backgrounds Issue

2012-01-03 Thread Elli Vizcaino
Hello Everyone, Phillipe W, Jukka, 


I'm using conditional statement to target an ie filter for multiple 
backgrounds. When I first applied the CSS: 


.entry-content {
    background: transparent url('images/post-footer-bkg.png') bottom left 
no-repeat;
 filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader 
(src='images/post-bkg.png', sizingMethod='crop');
/*IE7-8*/ 
 }


It was working fine but, now only the image in the filter property shows up. 
Not sure what happened or what I might have changed.
